The Pacific Beach pier was shuttered in March after winter storm damage was noticed; a consultant’s inspection determined that the pier was safe for public use while repairs are planned.
The city wants public input on the future of the 56-year-old icon: Repair it, rehabilitate it or replace it?
Allen said the hotel has its own structural engineer it has worked with for over 30 years but did not clarify whether it had conducted the inspection. On the 471-foot, city-owned portion of the pier, a total of 38 defects were deemed “moderate urgency” and recommended to be repaired within nine months before the upcoming winter storm season. The damage would cost an estimated $324,500 to repair.
Although a city planner told the California Coastal Commission in a letter that the hotel had failed to get the city’s permission before barring public access to the pier, Allen disagreed.
