    August 2, 2018 Oliver Netburn City of Los Angeles Department of City Planning 200 N. Spring Street Los Angeles, CA 90012 [email protected] RE: 2803 W. Broadway - CPC-2017-4388-GPA-ZC-CU-ZV-ZAD-SPR Dear Mr. Netburn: On behalf of The Eagle Rock Association (TERA), I am writing to you regarding the application for development entitlements at 2803 W. Broadway. The proposed project consists of a four-story, 65-foot-tall, approximately 85,000 square foot self-storage facility with fourteen parking spaces. Over the last three years, TERA has met with the applicant regarding this project. In January of this year, TERA met with the applicant and, after careful consideration, decided not to support the project. Our reasons for taking this position were that (1) the project was on an expedited track that made it difficult to for the community to provide constructive feedback and (2) that the scope of the development required sufficient community benefit. Since then, the applicant has taken the project off of the expedited track and has met with members of the community and with community groups, including TERA, which has helped to allay our initial concerns. Since these meetings, the applicant has committed to several items that we feel will benefit the community. These commitments include: A change in the architectural style of the building so that it is no longer contemporary but more in line with existing Eagle Rock architecture and design A 600 square foot community room with separate access from the facility, including a dedicated restroom. The room will be available to all local non-profit organizations on a first come, first served basis.

  • City of West Hollywood Appendix J
    R2, R3, R4 Multi-Family Survey Report City of West Hollywood Appendix J: 1986-87 Survey Context, prepared by Johnson Heumann Research Associates Appendices November 2008 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP Architects, Planners & Conservators, Inc. when a small group of citizens formed the West Hollywood Incorporation Committee. By November of that year, studies by the Local Agency Formation Commission confirmed that incorporation was indeed economically feasible. Tenants led by the Coalition for Economic Survival, homeowners concerned with planning issues and the gay community were among the leading advocates of cityhoog. Formal application was made on April 4, 1984. On November 4, 1984, by a 4:1 favorable margin, the voters approved incorporation . One of the new city's first tasks was to begin to draft a General Plan , the land use policy document for the municipality required· by State law. In January of 1985, the city began the process of preparing the Plan, noting that the physical environment, social character and quality of life within the City would be influenced by the General Plan. It was a stated goal to link land use and urban design, emphasizing the relationship between parcels and uses throughout the city. A reduction of density from those outlined in the West Hollywood Community Plan, .---- prepared before incorporated by the County of Los Angeles, was planned. As an i ntegral part of this planning process. the city of West Hollywood applied for c survey grant from the State Off ice of Historic Preservation in November of 1985 . 1.2 DEVELOPMENT HISTORY The area now known as West Hollywood has played a key role in t h e development of Los Angeles County west of Los Angeles .

    9/4/2020 Issues w/ Public Comment, 9/3 @ 10a - Google Groups Google Groups Issues w/ Public Comment, 9/3 @ 10a Allan Parsons <[email protected]> Sep 3, 2020 11:36 AM Posted in group: Clerk-PLUM-Committee Hi Folks: I had technical issues w/ making public comment on today’s meeting. I was in the queue for public comment by 10:10am, and my call dropped at least once between 10:10a and 10:30a. I’d like to make public comment: My name is Allan Parsons and I’m an 8 year west side resident, and I am providing public comment for item 11. I live near the Venice Bridge home facility at 100 Sunset. The Sunset facility houses 54 beds for transitional aged youth aged 18 to 24 years old. For clarification, and given the age group, these are not children, these are young adults. SPY operates 54 of 154 beds in A Bridge Home (in Venice). Police statistics show that LAPD has responded to the Venice Home 114 times since it opened, of which 8 were classified violent, 2 property crimes, and 15 part II crimes. SPY claims to have mental health experts on staff and social workers to help mitigate dangerous and violent situations. That is ostensibly not working since the LAPD has visited this one address 114 times in 6 months. SPY should not be allowed to be a service provider for this facility given the burden it puts on the LAPD and the risk to public safety for the surrounding residents.

  • The Neighborly Substation the Neighborly Substation Electricity, Zoning, and Urban Design
    MANHATTAN INSTITUTE CENTER FORTHE RETHINKING DEVELOPMENT NEIGHBORLY SUBstATION Hope Cohen 2008 er B ecem D THE NEIGHBORLY SUBstATION THE NEIGHBORLY SUBstATION Electricity, Zoning, and Urban Design Hope Cohen Deputy Director Center for Rethinking Development Manhattan Institute In 1879, the remarkable thing about Edison’s new lightbulb was that it didn’t burst into flames as soon as it was lit. That disposed of the first key problem of the electrical age: how to confine and tame electricity to the point where it could be usefully integrated into offices, homes, and every corner of daily life. Edison then designed and built six twenty-seven-ton, hundred-kilowatt “Jumbo” Engine-Driven Dynamos, deployed them in lower Manhattan, and the rest is history. “We will make electric light so cheap,” Edison promised, “that only the rich will be able to burn candles.” There was more taming to come first, however. An electrical fire caused by faulty wiring seriously FOREWORD damaged the library at one of Edison’s early installations—J. P. Morgan’s Madison Avenue brownstone. Fast-forward to the massive blackout of August 2003. Batteries and standby generators kicked in to keep trading alive on the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ. But the Amex failed to open—it had backup generators for the trading-floor computers but depended on Consolidated Edison to cool them, so that they wouldn’t melt into puddles of silicon. Banks kept their ATM-control computers running at their central offices, but most of the ATMs themselves went dead. Cell-phone service deteriorated fast, because soaring call volumes quickly drained the cell- tower backup batteries.

  • Horsecars: City Transit Before the Age of Electricity by John H
    Horsecars: City Transit Before the Age of Electricity by John H. White, Jr. Horsecars were the earliest form of city rail transit. One or two horses propelled light, boxy tram cars over tracks buried in the streets. Only the tops of the iron rails could be seen; the rest of the track structure was below the surface of the pavement. The rails offered a smooth, low-friction surface so that a heavy load could be propelled with a minimal power source. The cars moved slowly at rarely more than six miles per hour. They were costly to operate and rarely ventured much beyond the city limits. There was no heat in the winter nor air-conditioning in the summer. Lighting was so dim that reading was impossible after sunset. Horsecars were in all ways low-tech and old wave, yet they worked and moved millions of passengers each day. They were indispensable to urban life. The public became enthralled with riding and would not walk unless the cars stopped running. Horsecars were a fixture in American city life between about 1860 and 1900. Even the smallest city had at least one horsecar line. Grand Street, New York, at Night, 1889. From Harper’s Weekly. Basic Statistics for U.S. Street Railways in 1881 Millions on the Move 415 street railways in operation 18,000 cars The earliest cities were designed for walking. Everything clustered around 100,000 horses 150,000 tons of hay consumed each year the town square. Churches, shops, taverns, schools were all next to one another. 11,000,000 bushels of grain consumed each year Apartments and homes were a few blocks away.
