I like everything about the project, from the trailhead park providing access to the Los Angeles River to the proposed traffic improvements. Most importantly, I like that the development will create thousands of new jobs and put people back to work. This is vitally important to our region's health. Projects like the Evolution Plan, with it's all encompassing considerations, don't come around every day. I hope you agree that this project is too important to pass up.
