Orange County Declares a Coastal Emergency After Damage in Dana Point and Other Shore Communities, and Asks the Governor to Proclaim a State Emergency for the Southern California Coast

Orange County, California — Orange County Fifth District Supervisor Katrina Foley, vice chair of the Board of Supervisors, said in her county update that the county declared a state of emergency this week. Her office had called for a local emergency proclamation at the Board meeting following significant coastal damage in Dana Point, Laguna Beach, San Clemente, Newport Beach and other coastal communities.
Foley said the county declaration allows the county to strengthen the regional response and support efforts to secure state and federal assistance. The county has requested that Governor Gavin Newsom proclaim a state emergency for Southern California coastal communities, to strengthen state coordination, increase resource and assistance availability, and expedite recovery and protection work ahead of the 2026-27 winter storm season.
Her office also urged the governor to approve an executive order to expedite critical work before winter. The update says state agencies should work with Orange County cities, the county, the Orange County Transportation Authority, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and federal partners to streamline permitting and regulatory review for urgent preventive and recovery work while maintaining appropriate environmental protections.
The update gives no site-by-site loss figures for the damaged locations. Repair arrangements and the state response are as later published by the county and the state.
