Summary

Beach Front Plaza is an approved four-story mixed-use building at 201-295 W Grand Avenue in Grover Beach, on a 0.7-acre lot between North 2nd and North 3rd Streets in the Coastal Visitor Serving zone. It replaces the existing Beach Front Plaza shopping center with 39 residential condominiums, 4,100 square feet of commercial and outdoor patio space in three ground-floor suites, ground-floor parking and a private residential rooftop terrace. The property owner and applicant is Coastal Community Builders, Inc., represented by RRM Design Group.

The City's 2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report, published in March 2026, listed the project under planning review as 40 homes and 5,018 square feet of commercial space. On August 4, 2026 the Planning Commission considered Development Application DA-25-0009: a coastal development permit, a use permit, a vesting tentative subdivision map (Tract 3248), a 20 percent density bonus under State Density Bonus Law in exchange for two very low-income units, and a waiver allowing two residential units on the ground floor. The City's tracker records design approval on that date. A notice of exemption from environmental review (Class 32, infill development) was posted on CEQAnet on August 7, 2026; the site is in the Coastal Zone but the decision is not appealable to the Coastal Commission.

The tracker, updated October 14, 2026, lists the project under building review. No building permit or construction is documented in the records reviewed. The same developer is building Trinity, a 23-unit mixed-use project at 197 W Grand Avenue.

What changed

  • The City's tracker moved Beach Front Plaza to building review after the August 2026 approval, with the program now 39 homes and 4,100 square feet of commercial and patio space. [1]
  • Notice of exemption filed after the Planning Commission approval; the state's Public Utilities Commission filed a comment letter on the notice. [3]

What the records leave open

  • The program changed during review: the March 2026 annual report gave 40 homes and 5,018 square feet, the tracker's planning-review entry gives 37 homes and 5,400 square feet, and the August 2026 approval gives 39 homes and 4,100 square feet. The approved figures are used here.
  • The Planning Commission's vote is reported by the City's tracker as design approval on August 4, 2026 and is consistent with the notice of exemption filed three days later; the adopted resolution itself was not reviewed.
  • Being listed under building review does not establish that a permit has been issued or that construction has begun.
