The last beach in California where people can drive in the sand is about to be closed to traffic.

The California Coastal Commission this week will consider a plan to begin phasing out off-highway vehicle use at Oceano.

That’s a state park about 120 miles up the coast from Malibu.

It’s an extremely busy state park … a set of coastal dunes we’re dune buggies … motorcycles and RVs have free reign.

For now.

People who live near the sand dunes say the RVs, quads, side-by-sides, dirt bikes and dune buggies kick up so much dust itno the air as to make it unhealthy.

Nearby towns put up with noise, danger and pollution.

A murder happened in the sand dunes this spring.

But the R V crowd is fighting back.

They want to preserve the oceanfront state vehicular recreation area.

The California coastal commission will meet this week in San Luis Obispo to consider the Oceano sand dunes …. that comes up Thusday.

No Malibu issues are on the agenda this month … until Friday.

That’s when a daylong session Will be held on the statewide issues of Ocean level rise … and of the issue of overnight vacation rentals.

Malibu is not alone in trying to balance the need to preserve residential neighborhoods … and provide sufficient overnight accommodations for people who have a state enshrined right to visit the beach.
