San Diego Council Unanimously Approves SeaWorld Master Plan Update With 300-Room Hotel; Fireworks to Be Sharply Reduced
The San Diego City Council on October 13 unanimously approved the SeaWorld San Diego Master Plan Update (Council Item 330), the park's first master plan update in more than 20 years. The plan includes a 300-room hotel, a special events center and a marina expansion.
The council did not adopt the Planning Commission's recommendation to phase out fireworks over five years, but the park's fireworks shows will be drastically reduced. SeaWorld is currently permitted up to 150 fireworks shows a year; the park has petitioned the California Coastal Commission for a one-year pilot of up to 110 fifteen-minute drone shows using as many as 1,000 drones each.
The update had previously been reviewed by the Planning Commission. (Reporting via the San Diego Union-Tribune)
