“In October, the powerful state agency [California Coastal Commission] hit the [John Levy Jr.]... $2.5 Million Fine Over Public Beach Access”
DISPUTED
The claim states a $2.5 million fine in October. However, web search results provide conflicting figures: one source mentions a $1.4 million fine for a Carlsbad homeowner in 'Levyland', while another mentions a $5.1 million fine split between two Malibu homeowners. The specific $2.5 million figure is only found in the cross-reference, contradicting other reports of the fine amount.
