Venice Planning Forum meeting
Start: 7:00 am
End: 9:00 am
Body:

Our next meeting will be Wednesday, January 10, 7:00 a.m. at SPARC.

Notes from the initial meeting (12/27/06) of the proposed Gail Goldberg Venice Planning Forum group

History:

Approximately six month ago, in separate instances, Suzanne Thompson and Mindy Taylor-Ross contact Gail Goldberg about coming to Venice for a Planning Forum. Subsequent to that contact, Betsy Weisman and Christine Mahfouz in the Planning Dept. met with us to discuss the possibilities of
bringing Gail to Venice for a Planning Forum. Betsy related that Gail has been meeting with groups of people for walkabouts of the divergent areas of Los Angeles, and this has been a great success. We agreed that we'd approach Gail to come to Venice for a walk about with leaders in the community. We would follow that up with a Planning Forum with the entire community invited to attend and participate. The Forum would consist of breakout sessions where various topics (see listing below) would be explored in detail and opportunities and solutions identified.

NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL REVIEW COMMISSION Public Hearing
Start: 6:30 pm
End: 9:30 pm
Body:

Seven years ago, the City of Los Angeles created a system of Neighborhood Councils to give you a greater voice in local government. These are elected groups of your neighbors and other local stakeholders who give advice to the City Council and City Departments about how to better serve your neighborhood. The Neighborhood Council Review Commission will be holding a public hearing in the West Los Angeles Planning Area. Written comments or brief spoken comments are welcome.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

  • How well is your Neighborhood Council representing you and your needs?
  • Do people know about the Neighborhood Councils?
  • Do Neighborhood Councils have the right roles and powers?
  • Is the City government organized to help the Neighborhood Councils?
  • How can we make the system better?

When?
