Meeting, Metro Board of Governors

Thursday, Dec. 10, 9:30 a.m. 3rd Floor Boardroom

One Gateway Plaza, Los Angeles, Ca 90012

On Thursday, December 10, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s Board of Governors will consider an agenda item

  • A. To receive and file the Draft Initial Study/Environmental Assessment Report (DIS/EA)
  • B. To Adopt the Hybrid as the Local Preferred Alternative
  • C. To authorize additional funds to prepare an environmental analysis  and preliminary engineering of the hybrid
  • D. To authorize Metro’s CEO to recommend the LPA to Caltrans.

At the Nov. 18 meeting of Metro’s Planning and Programming Committee, the Echo Park Community Action Committee spoke against recommendations A, B and D.  For item C, we do support provide additional funds to complete the environmental analysis and for preliminary studies of the hybrid, which we think should rightfully be called Alternative F.

Attached is a copy of our December newsletter, which more fully discusses our position on the hybrid alternative.

We urge you to attend the meeting at Metro on Thursday, December 10.  This is your chance to voice your opposition to the hybrid.

Echo Park Community Action Committee
