LA City Planning Transportation Plan unveiled at Must-attend Community Meeting

MUST-ATTEND COMMUNITY MEETING 

 

When?   Thursday, July 26, 2018.  6:30 to 8:30 PM.

 

Where?  Pan Pacific Senior Activity Center

             141 S. Gardner Street, Los Angeles, CA 90036 

                   

What?  LA City Planning will unveil a Transportation Neighborhood Plan for the Fairfax, Miracle Mile/Museum Row, Restaurant Row, LaBrea Corridor, and Pico areas at this meeting.  It will substantially up-zone much of the study area above.

 

Links:  Announcement, called a Public Scoping Meeting:    http://www.latnp.org/purple-line/environmental-review/

 

WhyThis is a stealth proposal, developed in such secrecy that City Planning won't reveal its contents.

 

Proposal:  So far, the public only knows the outline of the proposal.  The study area is the western half of the Wilshire Community Plan area: Beverly Hills on the west, Highland on the east, Pico on the south, and Third and Beverly on the north.  Within this area City Hall will increase the height, mass, and density of most commercial and multi-residential properties.  Other properties will be heavily impacted by these changes.

 

Thousands of parcels will be changed through up-zoning and zoning overlay ordinances, General Plan amendments, re:code LA, and Los Angeles Municipal Code amendments.

 

Importance:  If you visit, live, rent, work, or shop in the Fairfax, Miracle Mile/Museum Row, Restaurant Row, Pico, or LaBrea corridor, these historic neighborhoods are in City Hall’s crosshairs.  This plan would change their character forever.

 

Comments:  The comment period on this plan opened on July 12, two weeks before LA City Planning publicly reveals its provisions.  Comments close on August 13, about two weeks after Thursday’s meeting.

Westside Urban Forum DATE CHANGE

 
L.A's New Era of Urban Design
 
DATE CHANGE!
 
Friday, July 27, 2018
 
 
 
For over a decade, architecture fans have read, appreciated, and debated Christopher Hawthorne in the pages of the Los Angeles Times. In addition to critiquing the city's architectural masterpieces -- new and old, large and small -- Hawthorne branched out into a form of academic activism, sponsoring a series of discussions that he called the "Third Los Angeles." Third L.A. encompassed the idea that, with the era of rampant growth behind us, Los Angeles must embrace a new urban form. Now, Hawthorne has leapt from the page to the lecture hall and now to City Hall, where he recently began his tenure as the city's first Chief Design Officer. 
 
In this role, Hawthorne will guide the city's efforts to promote good design and improve the aesthetics of the public realm. This vision is surely a work in progress, and Hawthorne is speaking with Angelenos citywide to discern common goals and visions. This month, Hawthorne joins WUF to update us on what his tenure might mean for the city's architects, planners, and developers. We will have a wide-ranging discussion and audience participation to learn about, and contribute to, the future of urban design in Los Angeles.
