Comments can be submitted but only until 4pm on Thursday, July 26th referencing case #: ENV-2016-3909EIR; sent to: [email protected]; TRA-18-07-0001: The Encino Neighborhood Council opposes the Promenade 2035 plan. The project, although within a 1⁄2 mile of the Orange Line, does not take into account the massive additional car trips on the 101 Freeway, Ventura Blvd. and Encino Hillside cut-thru streets. Adding 1,600 apartment units without any new infrastructure spells disaster.
