The four main agenda items on tonight’s Pacific Palisades Community Council meeting at 7 p.m. in the Palisades Branch Library community room, 861 Alma Real, include: 1. Parking: The board will decide whether it should support or oppose the proposed preferential district for streets adjacent to the business district and the Palisades Recreation Center. A color-coded map showing all the impacted streets is now on display in the library. A mandated L.A. Department of Transportation public hearing on the district has been scheduled for Monday, September 27 at 7 p.m. in Mort’s Oak Room (see related story and map, page 4). 2. ‘Mystery pond’ report: Daniel Hackney of the L.A. Bureau of Sanitation, who is coordinating city, county and regional government response, will discuss the problem at PCH and Chautauqua, as well as other ‘dry weather’ storm-drain issues. 3. Inclusionary Housing: A report by Gil Dembo and Don Scott on the Garcetti-Reyes proposal being considered by the L.A. City Council which would require developers building new housing to offer a number of housing units to be sold or rented to people of low-and moderate-income in the same project. According to the Los Angeles Business Journal (September 6), a City Council committee hearing on Garcetti-Reyes will be held later this month, and a ‘revised ordinance could come back to the council by early next year. Any ordinance passed would likely be phased in starting in 2006.’ 4. Cancellation of Commuter Express Route 430, the bus line linking Pacific Palisades and downtown Los Angeles: A report by the council’s transportation advisor Steve Lantz on possible further action. The public is invited. For more information about the Community Council, visit www.pp90272.org.
