Development in Grover Beach

Grover Beach is an incorporated city, and the City of Grover Beach reviews and permits development within its limits. The blocks closest to the ocean lie inside the California Coastal Zone, so some projects there also need a coastal development permit, which can add a step and a second set of findings before anything is built.

West Grand Avenue is the city's main street and the corridor where most of the larger recent proposals have been concentrated, from the freeway down to the beach. The east side of town, around Highland Way, Farroll Road and the Fourth Street corridor, is where the city's industrial and service-commercial buildings are, the kind of property with roll-up doors and yards that we lease and manage.

The projects listed here were selected from the city's permit reports, agendas and environmental notices for the period reviewed. Grover Beach publishes permit activity in monthly reports, and the research behind this guide notes a few reporting periods it could not obtain, so a project absent from this page is not evidence that nothing is planned there.
