The City Planning Department has embarked on a three-year process to update four Community Plans for the Westside of Los Angeles: Palms-Mar Vista-Del Rey, Venice, West Los Angeles and Westchester-Playa del Rey.
Our WSSM community is included in the West Los Angeles Plan area.
Much like the Expo Plan, the Westside Community Plan updates will have a far-reaching impact on life in our area. Developers (and their surrogates such as a pressure group called Abundant Housing LA) see enormous profit potential in these updates and have already started lobbying for aggressive upzoning on the Westside, including elimination of single-family streets. So it is vital that our community’s voice is heard loud and clear by the planners – especially in the early stages of the process, when many key decisions will be made.
Stay tuned for future action alerts, including hearings, workshops and other ways you can get involved in shaping the future of the Westside.
