That's a silly dispute. Any change in access and any change to a coastal property has to be approved by the Coastal Commission under California Law. And under California Law, the Coastal Commission is required to force the land-owner to provide beach access in order to gain permission for a change.

While at first glance that may seem unlawful, it has been thoroughly tested in the Courts. This is not an unusual occurrence; everywhere along the California coast you will find land and businesses who provide coastal access as a routine matter.

I assume Khosla has competent legal counsel who would have told him all this before he bought the property.
