EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This month's report includes: • A final report on the Ponte Vista project at the former Navy housing site on Western Avenue in Los Angeles (San Pedro); • An update on recent issues and events related to the Rancho LPG butane storage facility in Los Angeles (San Pedro); and, • A report on proposed renovation and expansion of the Peninsula Center shopping center in Rolling Hills Estates. BACKGROUND The following is the regular bi-monthly report to the City Council on various "Border Issues" potentially affecting the residents of Rancho Palos Verdes. The complete text of the current status report is available for review on the City's website at: http:llpalosverdes.comlmvlplanninglborder issues/2014120140401 Borderlssues StatusRpt.cfm DISCUSSION Current Border Issues Ponte Vista Project at Former Navy Housing Site, Los Angeles (San Pedro) The Planning and Land Use Management (PLUM) Committee of the Los Angeles City Council met again to consider the Ponte Vista project at its meeting on Tuesday, February 25, 2014 (see attached agenda and Staff report). The Committee reviewed the draft F-1 MEMORANDUM: Border Issues Status Report April 1, 2014 Page 2 ordinances prepared for the project by the Los Angeles City Attorney, and forwarded a recommendation of approval to the Los Angeles City Council. On Tuesday, March 4, 2014, the Los Angeles City Council met to consider the Ponte Vista project's specific plan, development entitlements and final environmental impact report. With no public opposition to the project expressed at the hearing, it was unanimously approved by the City Council. At this point, assuming that no legal challenge is filed, the developer is expected to begin demolishing the remaining strictures on the site and preparing it for development later this year. The Ponte Vista. project has been a fixture of the Border Issues Status Report for more than a decade. With the Los Angeles City Council's action, Staff will remove this item from future Border Issues reports. However, Staff will continue to monitor the progress of the project, and to report periodically on its status in the Weekly Administrative Report. Rancho LPG Butane Storage Facility, Los Angeles (San Pedro) As "Late Correspondence" at the February 4, 2014, City Council meeting, Senator Ted Lieu's office sent the attached e-mail and additional correspondence from the State Fire Marshal and the Governor's Office of Emergency Services (CalOES). These letters clarified that the State Fire Marshal does have jurisdiction over the butane storage tanks, and that no violations were noted when they were last inspected in March 2012. The letter from CalOES also noted that the facility had passed recent local, State and Federal inspections. On February 10, 2014, the City received a request from Rudy Svorinich on behalf of Rancho LPG Holdings for the City to remove certain content related to the Rancho LPG facility from the City's website (see attachments). Staff sent the attached response to Mr. Svorinich on February 20, 2014, declining to remove this content on the grounds that it expresses its authors' beliefs and views, and is a matter of public record since it was submitted to the City in relation to a matter on a City Council agenda. In the past two (2) months, interested parties have continued to forward items regarding and related to Rancho LPG via e-mail. Copies of these e-mails are attached to tonight's report. Staff will continue to monitor this project in future Border Issues reports. New Border Issues Peninsula Shopping Center Revitalization Project, Rolling Hills Estates On February 18, 2014, Staff learned of a proposed project to revitalize the Peninsula Shopping Center in Rolling Hills Estates (see attached "Notice of Intent"). The Peninsula Shopping Center is located at the southwest corner of Hawthorne Boulevard and Silver Spur Road, diagonally across the intersection from Palos Verdes Peninsula High School. Although the shopping center and most of the streets surrounding it are located in Rolling Hills Estates, single-family neighborhoods overlooking the shopping center to the north and east are located in Rancho Palos Verdes. F-2 MEMORANDUM: Border Issues Status Report April 1, 2014 Page3 As described in the Notice of Intent: The proposed project consists of an expansion and remodel of the Peninsula Shopping Center, providing for a net increase of 16,579 square feet of commercial building spc;ice, increasing the center's total size to 310,776 square feet. The new building space would be provided in three (3) new outlying building pads and two (2) expanded outlying retail/restaurant pads (replacing a vacant fast-food establishment and a vacant retail building). Various additional changes to the center are proposed, including demolishing the existing pedestrian colonnade and constructing a drive aisle in its place, reconfiguring parking and circulation facilities, consolidating existing tenant spaces, improving sidewalks, and installing new signage and landscaping. On March 4, 2014, Staff submitted the attached comments on the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) to the City of Rolling Hills Estates. Staff's comments focused on possible late-night noise impacts upon Rancho Palos Verdes residents related to new, free-standing restaurants on the northerly perimeter of the shopping center, and corrections and clarifications to the traffic and parking study. On March 17, 2014, the Rolling Hills Estates Planning Commission considered this project (see attached agenda and Staff report). Although Rolling Hills Estates Planning Staff expressed aesthetic reservations about some aspects of the project's architecture and signage, it was generally well-received. The Staff report included responses to our City's issues of concern regarding noise and traffic. The draft project resolutions are expected to come back to the Rolling Hills Estates Planning Commission for adoption later this month. Staff will continue to monitor this project in future Border Issues reports.

  • Escaping Eden
    Escaping Eden Chapter 1 I wake up screaming. Where am I? What’s going on? Why do I feel so cold? It’s dark. I look around, blinking sleep from my eyes. I notice a window somewhere in the back of the room. It’s open and moonlight shines through, casting a square beam of light across the floor. A breeze drifts in, and white curtains float like pale ghosts in the darkness. In the narrow light of the moon, I see that the carpet is burgundy. I also see the outlines of furniture. My head vaguely aching, I look at the shadows scattered messily across the room. I feel like sweeping them up to make room for light. I shake off the urge. Stop being delusional. There’s a funny smell in the air, ​ ​ like a mixture of old home mustiness and laboratory sterilization. I realize that I’m lying on the floor. Why am I not on the bed? ​ The last thing I remember is pain. Maybe that’s why I woke up screaming. The ​ ​ pain was intense. The pain was… cold. I decide to swallow my fear. It tastes terrible. ​ I stand up and my neck aches. As I rub my hand across it, my bones crack like I haven’t moved in a long time. I whisper to myself. “As Grandpa always said…” My train of thought rolls off into the distance. Where was I going with this? Who is “Grandpa”? I put my hand on my sweaty ​ forehead. I must be tired. I look for a light switch by approaching the walls and groping ​ ​ around.

  • Pression and Shock, He Burned His Ballet Slippers and Fled to the Sewers, Only to Surface These Forty Years Later
    Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo “The funniest night you will ever have at the ballet.” - Sunday Times “This is a company that brings its audiences pure joy.” -The Seattle Times History th Celebrating its 40 Anniversary season, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo was founded in 1974 by a group of ballet enthusiasts for the purpose of presenting a playful, entertaining view of traditional, classical ballet in parody form and en travesti, Les Ballets Trockadero first performed in the late-late shows in Off-Off Broadway lofts. The TROCKS, as they are affectionately known, quickly garnered a major critical essay by Arlene Croce in The New Yorker, and combined with reviews in The New York Times and The Village Voice, established the Company as an artistic and popular success. By mid 1975, the TROCKS' inspired blend of their loving knowledge of dance, their comic approach, and the astounding fact that men can, indeed, dance en pointe without falling flat on their faces, was being noted beyond New York. Articles and notices in publications such as Variety, Oui, The London Daily Telegraph, as well as a Richard Avedon photo essay in Vogue, made the Company nationally and internationally known. The 1975-76 season was a year of growth and full professionalization. The Company found management, qualified for the National Endowment for the Arts Touring Program, and hired a full-time teacher and ballet mistress to oversee daily classes and rehearsals. Also in this season, they made their first extended tours of the United States and Canada. Packing, unpacking, and repacking tutus and drops, stocking giant sized toe shoes by the case; running for planes and chartered buses all became routine parts of life.

Changes are shown as follows: bold underline text for new text proposed to be added, strikethrough text for existing text proposed to be removed, and normal text for existing text to remain. 1 Palos Verdes Peninsula The City of Rancho Palos Verdes s located on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in the southwest tip of Los Angeles County. The City includes 12.3 square miles of land and 7-1/2 miles of coastline. One-third of the total land is vacant, with more than three-fourths of the immediate coastline land vacant. The Peninsula has a unique physiography, formed over millions of years of submerging and lifting from the Pacific Ocean. The residents of the Palos Verdes Peninsula are the beneficiaries of a unique geography, formed from millions of years of volcanic activity, plate tectonics and terracing from changing sea levels. The nine-mile wide Peninsula, once an island, the Peninsula, none miles wide by four miles deep, now rises above the Los Angeles Basin with a highest elevation at to a maximum of 1,480 feet, with uniquely terraced configurations and steep, rocky cliffs jutting upward 50 to 300 feet from the ocean. The forming of the Peninsula has resulted in the unique terrace configurations readily observable today and the steep, rocky cliffs at the ocean’s edge which rise from fifty to three hundred feet. Erosion has created contributed to the creation of numerous steep-walled canyons.

  • MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY Written by Jeff Lowell
    MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY Written by Jeff Lowell Technical note: This series is the story of a couple, Peter and Dana, and it'll be partially told from their POV. We'll have the freedom to see through their eyes and hear their thoughts at various points. I'll specify the POV shots when it's necessary for the story or joke, but aside from that, it'll be an editing choice. TEASER FADE IN. INT. NEW YORK STREET - DAY We’re in the Village, streets still crowded with people heading home from work, shopping, going to dinner... PETER is walking towards the camera. He’s 30ish, a good looking guy. His eyes move back and forth, looking at the people heading towards him. PETER’S POV: We see that his gaze is flitting from woman to woman, landing on each one briefly. The men don’t even exist to him - they’re blurs on the way to the next woman. He’s deciding whether or not he’d sleep with every woman that he sees. PETER (V.O.) Yes. (NEXT) No. (NEXT) Yes, but don’t have a shot. Maybe when I was in college. If she was drunk and trying to get back at her boyfriend who cheated on her. (NEXT, SHE’S IN HER 50s) Yes. But for how long? Five more years? I wonder what the oldest woman I’d have sex with is. When I’m sixty, will sixty year old women look good to me, or are they just my only option? Peter spots a gorgeous woman with huge breasts, cleavage showing.
