The Week in Livable Streets Events
The devastating local impact of fracking might be one of the most important, and least discussed, major environmental issues in Southern California. Sahra Sulaiman covered a recent meeting between Baldwin Hills residents and the government agency allegedly overseeing the fracking going on in local oil fields. To say she was dissapointed and concerned is an understatement. There are two local events on fracking this week. If you live in or near Culver City or Long Beach, pay attention.

The Week in Livable Streets Events
Monday, Wednesday, Thursday - Apparently there's this plan to completely demolish Beverly Hills High School (hey, I read the Courier) that Metro is pushing that will also allow them to build a subway extension. Weird. How have I not heard of this before? There are meetings scheduled from 5:00 P.M. to 7:30 P.M. this week to discuss the planning. Get all the details off our calendar section, or by clicking on that advertisement to the right.
