> Khosla’s appeal with the Supreme Court argues that he shouldn’t have to get a permit to lock the public access gates, claiming the California Coastal Act is a violation of his constitutional rights. The California Coastal Act was enacted in 1976 to ensure the public had access to the California shoreline.
So this guy wants to outlaw easements, basically because he's rich so he shouldn't have to share? Seems like he has more money than sense.
- AareyBaba 9y agoImmigrants like me are deeply appreciative of the laws and commitment to set aside public spaces in America. It's one of those things that "Makes America Great". So it is embarrassing to see a fellow immigrant who finds success in this nation and lets that get to his head. I find it sad how quickly too much wealth makes you quickly forget your humble roots.
- mitochondrion 9y agoIt really just depends on who exactly the "public" is that is inhabiting the "public spaces". I'm sure this Khosla fellow wouldn't mind his property being used by beautiful surfer girls in bikinis who don't leave litter behind. Maybe he just wants trashy people to stay away from his property.

- Hydraulix989 9y agoIt's not his property though, it is public property that is adjacent to his that he doesn't own.
- Nomentatus 9y agoNo he can't prevent people from going to that beach, by boat and isn't asking for that. It is the easement that he doesn't want.
- Slansitartop 9y agoThe easements are a matter of public policy to ensure beach access. If he doesn't want to deal with that, he shouldn't have bought beach real estate in California.
- Nomentatus 9y agoI in no way have disagreed. Why post this here?
