The Woodland Hills Warner Center Community faces a tsunami of development. The Westfield Village bulldozers are revving, the Warner Center Specific Plan update is underway and the 3rd densest employment center in the City is besieged with gridlock.
The community needs a plan to fight back and reclaim their streets. To that end the Woodland Hills Warner Center Neighborhood Community Council has assembled a panel of visionaries to discuss the problem and elicit feedback from the community at an open meeting this Saturday at the Kaiser Permanente Hospital Auditorium from 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
The public is invited to join in the discussion on the issues and opportunities that challenge our neighborhood including traffic congestion, urban design, water reclamation, energy conservation, mass transit, accessibility, mobility, walkability and livability.
The panelists includes:
Bart Reed, Transit Coalition Executive Director
Joyce Pearson, Chair of the Woodland Hills Warner Center Neighborhood Council
Denny Zane, the former Mayor of Santa Monica during the revitalization of the Third Street Promenade
Larry E. Smith, Executive Director of North East Trees
It's a good time to take a peek at how sustainable transportation and related topics are showing up on legislators' priorities. Here's a very NON-comprehensive list.
