What's Up: Developer Wants 4th Extension, The Jimmy Surf Fiesta, Homecoming Week

Here are five things for your Tuesday and beyond in Manhattan Beach:  

1. The Planning Commission will once again look to approve a master use permit extension for an applicant who's already had three extensions approved on August 25, 2010, July 27, 2011, and September 12, 2012, according to the meeting agenda. The 1008 Investment Group, LLC would like to build a 25,350-square-foot medical and retail use building that includes 22,970 square feet of medical office condominiums, a 665-square-foot pharmacy and a 1,715-square-foot coffee shop with an outdoor patio area from 1000-1008 Sepulveda Blvd. Their initial three-year permit was issued in July 2007. The extension renewal fee is $2,195, according to a letter from the investors' managing member. City staff recommends the commission approve the extension. The Planning Commission meeting will be held Wednesday beginning at 6:30 p.m. in council chambers, 1400 Highland Ave. The meeting is webcast live.
   
2. The 2013 Jimmy Surf Fiesta takes place Sunday beginning at 8 a.m. at 42nd Street and the beach/waterline. Proceeds benefit the Jimmy Miller Memorial Foundation's work to provide an Ocean Therapy Program for Marines, veterans and children. Details here.
