  • Chapter 3 - Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures
    Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures CHAPTER 3 - ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING, IMPACTS, AND MITIGATION MEASURES 3-1 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this chapter is to provide the reader with the information necessary to understand and evaluate the potential environmental impacts due to implementation of the proposed Los Angeles Valley College Facilities Master Plan (Master Plan). In accordance with the State CEQA Guidelines (§15128 and §15143), this EIR focuses on the impacts identified in the NOP and during project scoping as needing further analysis (visual resources; air quality, historical resources; archaeological resources; paleontological resources; geology/soils/seismicity; hazardous materials; hydrology and water quality; land use and planning; noise; population and housing; public services; transportation, traffic and parking; and public utilities). A list of the impacts determined to be less than significant and the reasons for that determination are provided in Chapter 5. To assist the reader, each environmental impact category in this EIR is discussed separately. These discussions include a description of the environmental setting, the criteria used to determine significance of potential effects, the potential environmental impacts of the proposed project, mitigation measures, and any unavoidable significant adverse effects that would remain after implementation of the proposed mitigation measures. The environmental setting discussions contain a description of the physical environmental conditions in the vicinity of the project as it existed at the time the Notice of Preparation was distributed (January 2003). The existing environmental conditions described in the setting sections serve as a baseline for the impact analyses in this EIR. The significance criteria identified for each environmental impact category are based on the definitions that have been developed and established by the Los Angeles Community College District, various public agencies, or professional organizations and are consistent with the State CEQA Guidelines.

    Sherman Oaks Community Traffic Plan Sherman Oaks is a community that is geographically bound by the Santa Monica mountains on its southern boundary, and the ever-expanding San Fernando Valley on its western, northern, and eastern boundaries. Sherman Oaks is about three miles from north to south and three miles from east to west. But, Sherman Oaks has only four exit routes along its southern border to the Westside, as shown in the figure below: • San Diego Freeway; • Sepulveda Boulevard; • Woodcliff Road; and • Beverly Glen Boulevard. Only Four Exit Routes from Sherman Oaks Sherman Oaks Vision Committee 1 of 11 May 6, 2017 Sherman Oaks Community Traffic Plan Sherman Oaks was first developed in 1927 with only three canyon exit routes to the Westside – the San Diego Freeway did not exist until 1964. This lack of viable exits created a huge future problem because there are so many job opportunities on the Westside. Years ago, traffic flowing through Sherman Oaks was manageable. But, with increasing population growth more people from across the Valley started using these canyon routes to access their jobs and schools on the Westside – thus straining the capacity of these routes. As traffic became heavier, it began to overflow onto secondary streets. This caused many neighborhoods such distress that the city began limiting access to these secondary streets through turn restrictions during peak travel times. This further concentrated traffic onto already overcrowded canyon routes, many of which are substandard streets, causing gridlock. Throughout Sherman Oaks, much of our troubles stem from streets never intended for heavy traffic.

  • The Struggle to Make Sacred Places in the Secular Space of Los Angeles
    ТЕМА НОМЕРА: СВЯЩЕННОЕ: ПОНЯТИЕ И ФЕНОМЕН Ivan Strenski THE STRUGGLE TO MAKE SACRED PLACES IN THE SECULAR SPACE OF LOS ANGELES Айван Стренски БОРЬБА ЗА СОЗДАНИЕ СВЯЩЕННЫХ МЕСТ ИЗ СЕКУЛЯРНОГО ПРОСТРАНСТВА ЛОС-АНДЖЕЛЕСА В статье рассматривается топография Лос-Анджелеса (США), а также анализируется природа трудностей, связанных с попыткой систематического ее исследования. Различая пространство (space) и место (place), автор констатирует, что Лос-Анджелес парадоксально не является местом, т.е. пространством организованным и радикально отличным от окружающего. В немалой степени это проявляется в отсутствии доминирующих над городским пространством религиозных сооружений, единство города обеспечивается скорее системой скоростных шоссе. В связи с этим стратегия оформления сакрального пространства религиозными институциями, с одной стороны, предполагает дробление городского, преимущественно неинтегрированного пространства на множество кластеров, и с другой – намеренно «не соответствует» духу места, в силу его отсутствия. Более того, сооружения образуют замкнутые миры, существующие на полюсе пространства, противоположном все пронизывающей сети дорог. Таким образом, в Лос-Анджелесе религиозные сообщества не осваивают, но формируют священное пространство, причем исключительно в соответствии с принятыми и формирующимися в них представлениями. Религиоведческие исследования = Researches in Religious Studies. 2017: №1 (15). M., 2017. C.9-28. 9 doi:10.23761/rrs2017-15.9-28 Los Angeles architect, Charles W. Moore, is perhaps best known for his interests in the design of gardens. His work on these carefully fashioned places led him to develop the theme of a “sense of place.” I have found much of what Moore has written particularly applicable to the arguments I shall make in this paper about the difficulties for a city like Los Angeles to establish a sense of place.

  • 8-4.6 Visual and Aesthetic Conditions
    Visual and Aesthetic Conditions 8-4.6 VISUAL AND AESTHETIC CONDITIONS This section analyzes visual and aesthetic conditions along the three Rapid Bus alternatives: RB- 3, RB-5, and RB-Network. 8-4.6.1 Setting 8-4.6.1.1 Methodology Generally, there are two types of physical features that characterize the visual environment of an area: • Built environment features including development patterns, buildings, structures, parking areas and roads, utilities, and signs; and, • Natural features such as hills, vegetation, rock outcroppings, drainages, and soils. The study area is defined to include local and distinct views as seen from within the immediate vicinity of potential RB stops. As no construction occurs except at RB stops, views along the alignment are not discussed in detail. Local views include immediate landscapes, and distinct views include mountains, hills and ridgelines up to five miles away. The setting is defined in terms of views. The corridors for the three Rapid Bus alternatives are subdivided into “visual assessment units” within which the views are discussed. Also included is an assessment of existing trees, lighting, and glare. a. Views The following terms are used to analyze and rank the overall quality of views in the study area, and are presented in the tables to follow: • Visual quality refers to the general aesthetics of a view. This analysis attempts to assess the quality of a view in an objective fashion through the use of the following descriptive categories: vividness, intactness, and unity. Vividness is the visual power or memorability of landscape components as they combine in striking and distinctive patterns; intactness is the visual integrity of the natural and built landscape and its freedom from encroaching elements; and unity is the visual coherence and compositional harmony of the landscape considered as a whole.

  • Traffic, Circulation, and Parking
    4.1 Traffic, Circulation, and Parking This section describes the existing transportation and parking conditions within and adjacent to the project area. A traffic report describing the potential impacts of the proposed project was prepared by Iteris in March 2010 and is included as Appendix B. This section summarizes the findings of the traffic report and discusses any necessary mitigation and residual impacts after mitigation. The study area for the traffic report prepared for the proposed project was developed in conjunction with LACMTA and the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT). A study area that included 74 study intersections, consisting of intersections along Wilshire Boulevard, as well as parallel corridors, such as Sunset Boulevard, Santa Monica Boulevard, Olympic Boulevard, Pico Boulevard, 3rd Street, 6th Street, and 8th Street, was established for the proposed project. 4.1.1 Environmental Setting The following discussion includes an overview of the transportation system within the Wilshire BRT study area. The roadway system in the study area forms a grid pattern, with arterials and collectors that generally follow a northeast-to-southwest orientation in the western portion of the study area (west of the City of Beverly Hills) and an east-to-west orientation in the eastern portion of the study area (east of the City of Beverly Hills.) Freeway Network The Santa Monica Freeway (Interstate 10 [I-10]) is a major east-west freeway that parallels Wilshire Boulevard south of the study area. The freeway is one of the busiest and carries some of the highest daily traffic volumes in the nation. Annual counts from the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) indicate that the 2007 average daily traffic (ADT) on I-10 ranges from 199,000 (east of Centinela Avenue) to 323,000 (east of Vermont Avenue).
