Election 2013: CD 11 Debate on Jan. 22 on the Westside

Working with Bikerowave, the Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition and Los Angeles Walks, Streetsblog is hosting a candidate forum for the four candidates running to replace the retiring Bill Rosendahl in the Westside’s Council District 11.

The forum will be held on Jan. 22 at Nolte Hall at 11555 National Boulevard at 7:00 p.m. There will be light refreshments afterwards.  So far, Mike Bonin, Odysseus Bostick and Frederick Sutton have agreed to participate in the discussion that will be moderated by Will Wright, the Director of Government and Public Affairs for the American Institute of Architects, Los Angeles Chapter. We have reached out to all four candidates. The event is free and open to the public.

This forum also marks the launch of L.A. Streetsblog’s “livestream” channel. The forum will include exclusive interviews with Wright and both the candidates for livestream that will later be hosted on a new L.A. Streetsblog YouTube page. Details on our new video channels and series will be coming in the next couple of weeks.

A special thanks to St. Andrews West L.A. for donating use of their social hall.
