Punching Bag Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 http://www.businessinsider.com/a-new-california-law-guarantees-access-to-martins-beach-2014-10 http://www.businessinsider.com/vinod-khosla-loses-beach-suit-2014-9 According to the ruling, Khosla will be required to seek a permit from the California Coastal Commission before locking gates at the beach, as well as to consult with the community to determine changes to the property and public access to the beach. "Today’s court decision upholding the Coastal Act is an important victory for Martin’s Beach and ultimately strengthens the public's right to beach access in California," says Angela Howe, legal director for the Surfrider Foundation, who had filed suit against Khosla. "The Surfrider Foundation remains vigilant to protect beach access rights, not only in this case, but also in other cases where the beach is wrongfully cut off from the public." Even in Hawaii with multimillion dollar condos you have to allow beach access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Unless there is a clause in the bill of sale requiring public access to the property, it's his property to do with as he wants whether it's close to the public, open to the public, or fill with sharks with frickin laser beams.

Fan in San Diego Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Unless there is a clause in the bill of sale requiring public access to the property, it's his property to do with as he wants whether it's close to the public, open to the public, or fill with sharks with frickin laser beams. Not true, not when it comes to beach front in California. The state has everything to say about it, the homeowner, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Shouldn't be up to the Government or anyone else to dictate who you do and do not allow onto your property. Access to waterways are a different argument but access to the land itself should be up to the land owner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Shouldn't be up to the Government or anyone else to dictate who you do and do not allow onto your property. Access to waterways are a different argument but access to the land itself should be up to the land owner There was a lawsuit brought up in NY about paddlers rights when a navigable waterway crosses private land... https://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/20/nyregion/ruling-favors-public-use-of-adirondacks-private-waterways.html Locally (where I grew up) there is one land owner that owns a lot of land on either side of the river, and opened up his own parking lots for fishermen, to control how many could be on the river banks at once. Lawsuits were started because he was also claiming no one in a boat could fish his section of the river. The argument I heard, not knowing if it's true, is that he had also bought the mineral rights to the river bottom. Long story short, courts decided boats could come down river and fish as long as they did not anchor. http://www.douglastonsalmonrun.com/ EDIT: Found the court case https://www.fishsalmonriver.com/Douglaston-Manor-Inc-v-Bahrakis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Why are you posting articles from three years ago instead of the recent rulings? http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/08/11/542827955/california-court-orders-venture-capitalist-to-reopen-disputed-beach While my company appreciates our investment by Khosla, this is obviously a good ruling.
