Westside Extension Transit Corridor Update Meetings-Jan. 31, Feb. 5 & 6
You are invited
You are invited to a Metro project update on the Westside Extension Transit Corridor Study. In October 2007, Metro held early scoping meetings for the Study to help guide the development of alternatives to address the growing traffic and congestion in the 38 square mile study area. Nearly 500 individuals attended these meetings and over 450 formal comments were submitted by the close of the comment period.
Metro has now reviewed all public comments submitted during the early scoping period. Based on this feedback, Metro has developed a number of alternatives for further analysis including various modes, alignments and station locations. These upcoming meetings will update the public about the results of the scoping process, the emerging alternatives, and next steps in the Study

Town hall meeting on new boardwalk commercial vending, noise ordinance

A town hall meeting Thursday, February 7th, on the proposed new version
of a City of Los Angeles ordinance regulating commercial vending and
noise along the Venice Beach Boardwalk is scheduled to be moderated by
Los Angeles City Councilman Bill Rosendahl.

The meeting is set to begin at 6:30 p.m. at the Oakwood Recreation
Center, 767 California Ave., Venice.

The current boardwalk ordinance, which was approved in January 2006,
has been the subject of federal litigation. In an "unprecedented move"
welcomed by city officials, Federal District Court Judge Dean D.
Pregerson has been supervising a mediation process designed to produce a
compromise ordinance that allows the city to regulate noise and
commercial vending, while respecting and protecting First Amendment
rights, Rosendahl said.
