from Tim Warner (AVNC Co-Chair)
I know it's only May but we need help in sending a message to the DWP and city. Last year the DWP had a a "green week" of walking only nights during the Holiday Festival of Lights. Despite being the week of Thanksgiving the turnout was good. Immediately following the festival the AVNC along with the GGPNC and many local residents wrote letters to the DWP and city encouraging the walking nights to continue. In addition, the council encouraged the DWP and city to explore the possibility of making the entire festival a permanently walking-only event (less car exhaust in the air, less traffic, a family-friendly free thing to do, etc).
To date no one has received any response from the DWP or city and the DWP has made no announcements regarding keeping the walking nights. Some local community members are planning on attending a June 7 DWP meeting to once again show support for the walking nights and make another attempt to get an answer.
If you would like to see the walking nights continue we need you to speak up. Here are some options:
1. Post here so the responses can be printed out and submitted by the residents attending the June 7 meeting.
2. Better yet, write letters to the DWP, Councilman Tom LaBonge, Councilman Eric Garcetti, Parks & Rec, and cc the AVNC and/or the GGPNC.
3. Go to the June 7 meeting - 9am at the DWP cafeteria, 111 North Hope Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012

On Tuesdays and Thursdays this Spring, volunteers will be removing invasive plants that are quickly overgrowing the burn area. These invasive plants are competing with the native plants for light, water, and nutrients. The wildlife of Griffith Park need you to help the
native plants that provide their food, water, and shelter.
We will begin with a training about native and non-native plants in Griffith Park, so don't be late! If you have them, please bring your own gloves and/or pruners. A limited supply of gloves tools will be available (most work can be easily done by hand). Please make sure to wear long- sleeved shirts, long pants, and sturdy, closed-toed shoes.
You may also need sunglasses, sunblock, and a hat. For more information, or to arrange specific times, dates, parking, etc:

The Mayor’s proposed budget for fiscal year 2008-09 calls for a cut of $5.19 million dollars from the Los Angeles Public Library system budget – a 22% cut from last year’s budget.

We are asking that you, members of your family, friends and neighbors send a letter to the Mayor and the City Council (click here for sample letter / email, pdf file) restoring the 2007-08 budget so the libraries can continue to buy books, maintain staff and hours.

Los Angeles— Calling Los Angeles “… one of the most underpoliced big cities in America,” City Controller Laura Chick, issued a report today identifying ways to increase civilian staffing of the Los Angeles Police Department and put more officers out fighting crime on our streets and in our neighborhoods.
“We found over 500 positions that could potentially be filled by civilians, freeing up sworn personnel to perform more traditional policing functions. The last chapter of the report lays out a clear plan, implemented over a three year period that would put these already trained, experienced veteran police officers, back out in neighborhoods where we need them,” said Chick at a news conference with LAPD Chief Bill Bratton.
“Over and over again we hear the sound‐bite, “Let’s get officers out from behind desks and out on our streets.” Yet we continue to impose hiring freezes for civilian positions resulting in a vacancy level ranging up to 640 and currently hovering at 608 vacant positions. Who do we think is performing this essential back‐up work?,” continued Chick.

Month-long series of community events follows gang-related shootout.
On the heels of a gang-related shootout on Drew Street, Los Angeles City Council President Eric Garcetti announced that he will host a series of events to listen to community concerns and engage local residents in efforts to make their neighborhood safer.
“My top priority is making sure that our neighborhoods are safe places where families can thrive. We need to empower residents to work with each other and the police to stop the gang violence in Northeast L.A. These community events will give local families an opportunity to share their ideas for making their neighborhood safer and to learn about what they can do to help,” said Garcetti.
The month-long series of community public safety events will include a Public Safety Summit with Garcetti, Los Angeles Police Chief William Bratton, and other city officials. Participants in the Summit will have the opportunity to express their concerns, share ideas, and hear an update on current public safety efforts.
Garcetti will also host a Leadership Academy focused on public safety issues in the community. Workshops will be held by representatives of the L.A. Bridges gang prevention program, Human Relations Commission, local schools, and the City Attorney's Office. Participants will learn how to organize a successful neighborhood watch, participate in Garcetti’s anti-graffiti program, Uniting Neighborhoods to Abolish Graffiti (UNTAG), and become effective partners with LAPD Senior Lead Officers. The Garcetti Leadership Academies are held regularly and have trained more than 1,000 local residents to be effective advocates for their community.
All events will begin at 9 a.m., and the schedule of events includes:
Yesterday's gang shootings in the Glassell Park area once again demonstrated our city's need to make safe communities our top priority.
In the last few years, we have poured additional resources into this area to stop the gang violence that has plagued the neighborhood for decades. LAPD and other law enforcement officers have been active in the neighborhood and were able to intervene immediately to bring safety back to the community. I want to thank the men and women of the Los Angeles Police Department who did a stellar job of responding to this incident. I am committed to working with the police department to make sure it is getting the resources it needs to protect our communities.
I am also committed to creating more opportunities for young people to give them positive alternatives to gang life, including continuing a program I started last year called At the Park After Dark, which kept the Glassell Park Recreation Center open late into the evenings during
the summer.
L.A. City Council President Eric Garcetti
The Atwater Village Neighborhood Council (AVNC) accepted the resignation of Christine Anthony as Non-profit Representative and Election Committee Chair at its monthly board meeting, February 14th, 2008 – Valentine’s Day. Ms. Anthony resigned from her position as Non-profit Representative and Election Committee Chair via email on January 31, 2008. In her email she did not state her reason for resigning. (Click here for 01/31/2008 resignation email).
Ms. Anthony was elected as one of two Non-profit Representatives in the October 6th, 2007 AVNC general board election. She also served as North Atwater Resident Representative during her previous tenure on the AVNC Board.
Ms. Anthony was also Project Manager for the Metrolink Derailment Memorial at Seneca Ave and Los Feliz Blvd., including the dedication ceremony in January of last year attended by many of the City’s dignitaries and relatives of those killed at the derailment in January 2004. Ms. Anthony was also responsible for contracting with the City for the landscaping and maintenance of the area and hosted a small commemoration ceremony this past January for those able to attend. This exclusively AVNC funded project took just short of 3 years and cost approximately $15,000.00 to complete.
Since the seating of the new Board in November 2007, only three months ago, there have been two resignations from the Board, Diane Serafino and now Christine Anthony and one resignation by Lenore Solis as Secretary.Los Angeles—Calling it, “A time for action…now,” City Controller Laura Chick released her wide ranging and highly anticipated Blueprint on ending gang violence.
“During the last two decades, there have been countless studies, reports, consultants, City Council ad-hoc committees, new programs and hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars spent to stem the gang crisis. And what do we have to show for it? The recent in-depth Advancement Project study painted a grim picture, which my report echoes, of a disjointed maze of services that don't reach the intended “at risk” youth population,” said City Controller Chick.
“Now what? It is important to note what my report does not say. There is no call for immediate new dollars, but there is a plan spelled out on how to spend the money more wisely and efficiently. New programs are not advocated, but rather the redesign, refocus and merging of existing programs is proscribed,” said Chick.
“The report does not recommend the creation of a new department with additional layers of bureaucracy, but directs the creation of the Anti-Gang Office which will operate directly under the Mayor. This will be a centralized, empowered entity that has the oversight and responsibility of our many anti-gang efforts. To ensure public transparency, the City Controller’s Office will issue status reports beginning six months from today, along with conducting periodic fiscal and performance audits,” said Chick.

The staff of the Office of Historic Resources (OHR) is proposing important changes aimed at strengthening demolition review procedures, clarifying criteria for historic designation, and enhancing notification of private property owners. The City of Los Angeles' Cultural Heritage Ordinance, originally approved by the City Council in 1962, created the procedures for the designation and protection of significant Los Angeles buildings and sites as Historic-Cultural Monuments. While the Ordinance has undergone several minor, procedural modifications, it has never been comprehensively updated to give our City a state-of-the-art historic preservation program.
The Cultural Heritage Commission has scheduled an initial public workshop on these ordinance amendments for February 7, 2008, 10:00 a.m. in Room 1010 of City Hall (200 N. Spring St., in downtown Los Angeles). This meeting will also include a presentation on the OHR's work program for 2008, and an update on SurveyLA, the Los Angeles Historic Resources Survey. We also welcome your written comments and suggestions on these proposals as the OHR and Commission finalize a draft ordinance for submission to the City Council later this year.

In the summer of 2004 Home Depot Corporation announced the purchase of a multi-year lease for the K-Mart store at 3150 San Fernando Road on the same day that K-Mart announced they would be closing the store. By January of 2005, the city had enacted an Interim Control Ordinance (ICO) for the area in Glassell Park bounded by the Metro-link tracks, the commercial strip to the east of San Fernando Road, the city of Glendale, and Fletcher Drive. That meant that no structure within those boundaries could be significantly altered in any way or demolished without a hardship exemption. The former K-Mart site fell within those boundaries. At the time there was lots of speculation in the area as the real estate market had heated up considerably. The ICO provided a tool wherein the city and the community could weigh in more closely on land use decisions that would affect the area for years, if not decades to come. During this time the community organized to make a case against having a Home Depot at that location and Home Depot hired a consulting firm to build support within the community for one of their stores. Several public meetings were held. Some compromise concepts were discussed. Home Depot submitted applications to the city's planning department for improvements and upgrades to the existing building so that when the ICO was lifted, they would be able to build their store.As the ICO was set to expire, we enacted the "Fletcher Square" portion of the Community Design Overlay Zone. This covered the exact geographical area that the ICO covered and it prohibited retail spaces larger than 75,000 square feet. After some initial activity, the site sat quiet for several months. In the Fall of 2007 our office learned that Home Depot may be reconsidering its desire to build a store there and in December this was confirmed.The lease hold is now up for sale and Home Depot is looking for a buyer. We have referred several interested parties their way over the last month and continue to do so. Ideas expressed by the communities of Atwater Village and Glassell Park range from mixed use with retail to a new Police station to affordable housing, to an accessory use for the new LACC college at the Van de Kamps site. We are all very excited to have this new opportunity; to work with someone on a development the community can support that will be in keeping with an improved San Fernando Road corridor.Mitch O'Farrell

RE: Resignation as Commissioner
Dear Larry:
I wish to express my thanks to Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa for the opportunity to serve in his administration as a Commissioner on the Board of Neighborhood Commissioners.
As you know, our Commission meets in the evening at various locations throughout the city. This has provided the opportunity to learn about many of the 89 Neighborhood Councils and their communities.
Some of these Neighborhood Councils are vibrant, diverse, and truly committed to making their neighborhood a better place for all residents. Seeing the well functioning neighborhood councils has been the most positive aspect of serving as a commissioner.
Additionally, I truly appreciated the opportunity to work with the other BONC Commissioners who are intelligent, committed, and politically astute. Likewise, many of the DONE staff are truly outstanding and could make a terrific contribution to improving the Neighborhood Council system if given the chance.
The challenges have been considerable. Foremost among these is that in the 27 months I served as a Commissioner there were 4 general managers at DONE.Continue reading "DIANE MIDDLETON RESIGNS FROM BOARD OF NEIGHBORHOOD COMMISSION" »

Atwater Village, CA – The Atwater Village Farmers’ Market has found yet another way to bring local, fresh produce to Atwater Village! In a collaborative effort, the (AVFM) has coordinated a farmer visit to Atwater Elementary School using LAUSD and SEE-LA’s Bring the Farmer to Your School program.

The children will learn that carrots grow form the ground, and that they don’t just appear at the produce aisle at the market! Students will learn many things, such as the difference between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ bugs for growing fruits and vegetables. The students will be able to taste tangerines, apples and carrots straight from Eli’s farm, and learn that carrots can actually have a sweet, flavorful taste. “I like the kids to have a connection with where their food comes from, how it affects their bodies, and become excited about eating healthy” – Farmer Eli Sheiman.The Farmer Eli’s visit is being funded by the Atwater Village Neighborhood Council, who share with the (AVFM) their commitment to the health of the Atwater community.

This program is committed to teaching children in lower-income communities about health, farming, and fresh fruits and vegetables. “SEE-LA is proud to bring its valuable programs into the same communities where we also operate our farmers’ markets”. – Pompea Smith, CEO, SEE-LAThe Atwater Village Farmers’ Market is located on Glendale Ave. and Larga Ave. at 3250 Glendale Blvd. in the Wells Fargo Bank parking lot. Free parking is available off Larga Ave.
The Market is operated by Sustainable Economic Enterprises of Los Angeles (SEE-LA) as a nonprofit community activity.
