(a) The commission shall, by regulation, provide procedures which the commission shall use in deciding whether to grant reconsideration of any of the following:

(1) Any decision to deny an application for a coastal development permit.

Terms Used In California Public Resources Code 30627

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • Evidence: Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other.

(2) Any term or condition of a coastal development permit which has been granted.

(b) The procedures required by subdivision (a) shall include at least the following provisions:

(1) Only an applicant for a coastal development permit shall be eligible to request reconsideration.

(2) The request for reconsideration shall be made within 30 days of the decision on the application for a coastal development permit.

(3) The basis of the request for reconsideration shall be either that there is relevant new evidence which, in the exercise of reasonable diligence, could not have been presented at the hearing on the matter or that an error of fact or law has occurred which has the potential of altering the initial decision.

(4) The commission shall have the discretion to grant or deny requests for reconsideration.

(c) A decision to deny a request for reconsideration is not subject to appeal.

(d) This section shall not alter any right otherwise provided by this division to appeal an action ; provided, that a request for reconsideration shall be made only once for any one development application, and shall, for purposes of any time limits specified in Sections 30621 and 30622, be considered a new application.
