📰 News we're reading

• Preliminary 3.6-Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Hermosa Beach Area, USGS Says (ground.news) — A small earthquake, around magnitude 3.5–3.6, struck off Hermosa Beach on Sunday morning and was felt in Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, and parts of Los Angeles. No damage was reported, but the shaker came just days after recent coastal weather worries, reminding South Bay residents to stay prepared for seismic activity even from relatively minor offshore quakes.
   

• How Airbnb is fighting for its place on California's coast (sfchronicle.com) — California's fight over coastal short-term rentals directly touches Manhattan Beach, which previously tried to ban them and then faced successful legal challenges. A deep dive into Pacifica's recent Airbnb battle shows how state coastal regulators, lobbying, and lawsuits could shape what rules Manhattan Beach and other beach cities can realistically enforce on vacation rentals going forward.
