The S Coast Hwy LLC Residence project, identified as DR 25-1886, CDP 25-1887, and VAR 25-1888, involves the construction of a new single-family dwelling on a vacant building site located at 32005 Coast Highway in Laguna Beach, California. Situated within the R-1 Residential Low Density zone, the project is located in an environmentally sensitive area due to its proximity to the oceanfront. The scope of work includes the development of a two-car garage, vehicular access, elevated decks, terraces, a pool, a spa, and comprehensive landscaping, as well as necessary site work such as grading and the installation of retaining walls. The City of Laguna Beach serves as the lead agency for the project, with Nancy Balmer-Csira acting as the project planner and Marshall Innins as the architect. Under the California Environmental Quality Act, the project has been granted a categorical exemption per Section 15303 for the new construction of small structures, as no significant environmental impacts are anticipated. A Notice of Exemption was filed with the Orange County Clerk-Recorder on December 5, 2025, following the payment of a 50.00 dollar filing fee. The project is classified under NAICS code 236115 for new single-family housing construction.
