About Us
We are an informal group of residents, property and business owners who want to protect, preserve and enhance the character of Pleasure Point.
Save Pleasure Point came together in late 2015 when 200+ neighbors felt The Lumberyard, a commercial project at 38th and Portola, would negatively affect the neighborhood due to increased traffic, parking, and other issues. Unfortunately, our efforts came too late in the planning process, despite our appeal to the Coastal Commission. We endorse economic growth in Pleasure Point’s commercial zoned areas. However, these interests should not add stress to Pleasure Point’s infrastructure and residential areas.
We believe that new construction should be appropriate for Pleasure Point – in terms of height, design, and on-site parking.
