The current owners want permission to turn the site into a cafe alongside two self-catering units.
The Nude Dunes restaurant at La Pulente closed unexpectedly in November 2023.
A former seaside restaurant cannot be converted into holiday lets, a minister rules.
Jersey Fire and Rescue Service said the person trapped in the vehicle was taken to hospital.
The owner of Nude Dunes applies for permission to develop the site into self-catering accommodation.
About 250 residents gathered to protect Jersey's coastline from "overdevelopment and privatisation".
