Local Coastal Plan Up for Final Approval

The Santa Monica Mountains Local Coastal Plan (LCP) has gone through various stages over the past couple of years fueled by the support of many including readers of this blog. You wrote letters, went to meetings, and some even rode the bus to Santa Barbara for the Coastal Commission Hearing. Your support made this landmark planning document possible.

It is now time to push this plan across the finish line. As you know, there are those with special interests who will be at the upcoming hearing on Tuesday, August 26th to try and keep this plan from being approved and signed.  IT IS IMPERATIVE TO HAVE A SHOWING AT THE UPCOMING HEARING SUPPORTING THE LCP. If you have not already done so, send a letter to the Supervisors (see below, Action Item #1), and go downtown next Tuesday, August 26th ( see below, Action Item #2) for the public hearing.

Please join your fellow activists in supporting the LCP by coming in person to the LCP Hearing. You need not speak; however, it's important to sign in and check "VOTE YES". It may take only a couple of hours or so of your time (including drive time). Of course, you are welcome to speak and stay for the entire proceedings.

DOING BOTH ACTION ITEMS BELOW WILL MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE:


ACTION ITEM #1 - SEND A LETTER TO: PublicHearing@bos.lacounty.gov
Subject: Santa Monica Mountains LCP --- PLEASE VOTE YES ON THE LCP
Sign with your name and address.


ACTION ITEM #2 - COME TO THE PUBLIC HEARING!
Date: 9:30 AM on Tuesday, August 26, 2014
Place: 500 West Temple Street, Los Angeles, 90012 Board of Supervisors Hearing Room, 3rd Floor
