Long Beach will work to preserve its tide pools and make part of
its shoreline more accessible to visitors by landscaping and building a
walkway along the Marine Stadium End Beach and developing a park nearby.

   City Council members approved the project despite complaints from one
man who said plans to convert an existing building into a public restroom
would promote lewd behavior in the area.

   The landscaping and walkway will cost about $400,000.

   The park, called Fieldstone, will be developed at the south end of
Spinnaker Bay Homes and will include a lagoon and L-shaped dock. It will
cost $750,000 to $900,000. Funds for both parts of the project would come
from a developer, who has not been chosen, and from city funds set aside
for tidelands and beach projects, said Susan Heimos of the city Parks and
Recreation Department.
