Changes are shown as follows: bold underline text for new text proposed to be added, strikethrough text for existing text proposed to be removed, and normal text for existing text to remain. 1 Palos Verdes Peninsula The City of Rancho Palos Verdes s located on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in the southwest tip of Los Angeles County. The City includes 12.3 square miles of land and 7-1/2 miles of coastline. One-third of the total land is vacant, with more than three-fourths of the immediate coastline land vacant. The Peninsula has a unique physiography, formed over millions of years of submerging and lifting from the Pacific Ocean. The residents of the Palos Verdes Peninsula are the beneficiaries of a unique geography, formed from millions of years of volcanic activity, plate tectonics and terracing from changing sea levels. The nine-mile wide Peninsula, once an island, the Peninsula, none miles wide by four miles deep, now rises above the Los Angeles Basin with a highest elevation at to a maximum of 1,480 feet, with uniquely terraced configurations and steep, rocky cliffs jutting upward 50 to 300 feet from the ocean. The forming of the Peninsula has resulted in the unique terrace configurations readily observable today and the steep, rocky cliffs at the ocean’s edge which rise from fifty to three hundred feet. Erosion has created contributed to the creation of numerous steep-walled canyons.
