Hyatt Hotel in San Diego Illegal Act Against Sport Fishermen

This is a news report from San Diego Channel 6 regarding the Hyatt Hotel on Mission Bay in San Diego illegal attempt to evict the Sport Fishermen from the marina in violation of Cal. Const. art. X, §§ 3,4 and the Coastal Act.

The Coastal Act states that the economic, commercial, and recreational importance of fishing activities shall be recognized and protected, and that facilities serving the commercial fishing and recreational boating industries shall be protected, and where feasible, upgraded. The Coastal Act requires that coastal-dependent developments shall have priority over other developments on or near the shoreline. Recreational boating use is encouraged by providing for the development of berthing space, increasing facilities and limiting non-water-dependent uses. Existing space shall not be reduced unless demand no longer exists or substitute space has been provided. The needs of the commercial fishing industry have priority over recreational boating. Recreational boating facilities should be designed and sited so as not to interfere with the needs of the commercial fishing industry. Additionally, uses of the marine environment shall be carried out in a manner that will maintain healthy populations of all species of marine organisms.
