2 In addition to development conditions under this Act, a land surrender requirement under the Coastal Act may be made in relation to particular land that is the subject of a development approval for reconfiguring a lot in a coastal management district under the Coastal Act. However, a land surrender requirement is not a development condition under this Act.
