Kicking Off the Share Phase

The Southeast Valley Community Plans team has reached a major milestone by completing our initial “Listen” phase of outreach activities. From Fall 2018 to Spring 2019, the project team has spoken with hundreds of people. We visited 9 Neighborhood Councils, hosted 4 public open house meetings, met with neighborhood and business groups, spoke with immigrant community leaders, met with over 100 youth and attended numerous public events. We love getting to know the diverse communities of the Southeast San Fernando Valley. Our team thanks all the residents, business owners and community leaders who have shared their ideas with us. If you want to see photos, presentations and summaries of past events check out the posts on the Updates page of our website.

We’re now moving on to the “Share” phase of our outreach process. In June and July, we’ll be visiting the Neighborhood Councils in the Southeast Valley to present what we’ve heard over the last eight months. We hope you’ll join us! These meetings are a temperature check for us as we develop initial ideas for the plan update. What are the key land use issues in each Southeast Valley community and how can they be addressed locally? Come discuss this with us and your Neighborhood Council.

If you can’t make it to the NC meeting in your area, you can always submit comments on our website or email us directly at planning.southeastvalley@lacity.org.

PS: Save the dates for our Concept Workshops, coming this summer! We’ll report back on what we’ve heard, explain some of the technical work we’ve been doing, and share initial land use concepts. Each workshop will have information about all three Community Plan Areas, so you can attend any that you like.
