The Week in Livable Streets Events

9:19 AM PDT on March 25, 2013

This is a funny week for events, trapped between Passover, Easter, Cesar Chavez Day and April Fool's Day. That being said, there's some big stuff on the calendar, including a major series of debates on the candidates for the remaining City Council offices, Controller and City Attorney next Monday.

    • Tuesday - The Transit Coalition will host its monthly Dinner Meeting tomorrow featuring Gold Line Construction Authority CEO Habib Balian, at Metro Headquarters, One Gateway Plaza, Los Angeles in the 3rd Floor Union Station Conference Room. If you want a meal with your purchase, you must prepay for food by noon on the day of the event. To attend, you are required to register, so that we can properly accommodate all guests beforehand. This is proving to be a popular event, so register as soon as possible.
    • Wednesday - The public meetings for the East San Fernando Valley Corridor Projects wrap up with this meeting. If you have an idea how to get from Van Nuys to Sherman Oaks via transit, be sure to check out their meetings. Tell them Streetsblog sent you. Get the meeting details, here.

    • Next Monday - Climate Resolve is hosting a major forum with the candidates for the remaining City Council races, city attorney and controller next Monday. The topics will include the environment, global warming and transportation. This could be the closest we get to Livable Streets forums, so be sure to check it out if you can. Get the details, here.
