The commission’s approval enables Crescent City Fish Camp LLC to expand its existing RV resort by changing the land use designation from a mix of commercial and residential medium density to entirely commercial. Any future increase to 74 units would require further approval. A significant portion of the site will be conserved, with plans to maintain a path for public use.

The commission conducted a review process, including a presentation by city planners and a public hearing. The applicant, Andrew Garcia, emphasized the positive relationship with Crescent City and clarified that a marina, initially considered, was no longer part of the development plan.

Environmental concerns were addressed, with an environmental assessment confirming no issues, including the presence of bald eagle nests, which were noted but located outside of any regulated impact zones. The commission’s approval reflects a collaborative process aimed at balancing development with community and environmental considerations.
