The mayor, city planners and YIMBYS* are pursuing a radical concept for our neighborhoods: dense, tall luxury housing jammed into big swaths all along Ventura Boulevard, the Orange Line, Purple Line and other transit corridors.
Giant buildings are planned for your street unless you stop it!

The mayor’s appointees on the City Planning Commission are working behind closed doors with the YIMBY group “Abundant Housing” to impose luxury apartment towers in cherished neighborhoods. The goal: to feed people into the failing Metro system.

“Public” hearings go virtually unadvertised. The city isn’t telling you what will be lost:
· single family neighborhoods
· historic zones & favorite business districts
· open space and green belts
· front yard and building setbacks
· rent-stabilized older apartments
· public roads (gifting of roads to developers)

You will learn tools to challenge top-down Specific Plans and Neighborhood Transit Plans that would affect:
Purple Line: Wilshire District, Mid-Wilshire, Beverly Grove, Carthay Circle, Fairfax District, Westwood Ventura-Cahuenga Specific Plan: Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Encino, Tarzana, Woodland Hills, West Hills Orange Line: NoHo, Valley Village, Van Nuys, Reseda, Winnetka, Warner Center, Canoga Park, Chatsworth
*YIMBY means “Yes in My Backyard.” L.A. neighborhoods and the Coalition to Preserve LA stopped SB 827, Scott Wiener’s upzoning law, which was written by YIMBYs. Now, the YIMBY group, Abundant Housing, dreams of luxury towers in single-family neighborhoods and wiping out older affordable housing.
Coalition to Preserve LA is a non-profit that works toward: + transparent government + environmental stewardship + equitable housing
