REMINDER: LA River Workshops - June 24, 27 & 28 - Count Down to the Top Opportunity Sites!
Dear Community Member:
We're half way through the 18-month planning process to revitalize the LA River! After three sets of workshops, the project team has listened to the community, completed their research, and narrowed down potential opportunity sites along the River. The team is now ready to report back
again. First there were 20 opportunity sites along the River - that list was narrowed to 9 - and ultimately, 5 sites will be chosen for River related improvements.
Please join us at the next set of workshops for a discussion of the 5 sites which could eventually be recommended in the master plan. We want to hear your input on the best mix of land uses and River-related activities such as enhancing water quality, creating natural habitats and recreation spaces and providing economic development opportunities.
The workshops are as follows:
Greater Los Angeles Area
Saturday, June 24, 2006, 10 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
Goodwill Workforce Center, 342 N. San Fernando Rd., Los Angeles
