Note from the Mayor -Sue Kempf 7/22/22
Last Tuesday, the City Council heard an exciting staff presentation about the possible acquisition of the 6.5-acre St. Catherine of Siena school property located at 30516 Coast Hwy. Acquisition of this property would provide the City with a unique opportunity to increase services to the community, with an array of possible long-term use concepts such as a community pool, cultural arts center, performance venue, recreation facilities, and additional City or civic uses. It was wonderful to see so much community support to find the highest and best use of the property on Tuesday night. Given that Laguna Beach is largely built out, opportunities like this are rare. I look forward to continued discussion and public input when the item returns to the City Council on Aug. 16 with a detailed financial purchase plan and other partnership opportunities to explore. Over the coming months, we will continue to solicit ideas from our community and will develop a master plan for this site and all city owned properties to create a vision for wonderful community serving facilities and venues that we can all enjoy.
