CSPNC Board Seats Open, (S)Elections at WPNP

Posted on April 25, 2013 by sanpedropalisades

Just in case you didn’t see the “Get on Board” mailer, need an extra push or see an announcement in some form of media, Governing Board Seats on the 2013-2014 Coastal San Pedro Neighborhood Council are up for (S)Election on May 18 at the White Point Nature Preserve Nature Center from 10:00 – 3:00. Free refreshments, Naturalists and of course, voting!

But before that happens, you still have a few days to submit your name to be publicized via CSPNC’s Coastal Currents to the entire neighborhood – to be voted on.

You gotta admit (with PRA’s help and initiation of several key issues affecting us), CSPNC has done a stellar job serving this neck of the woods on behalf of the residents and is a good place to bring issues needing solving. Maybe it’s your time to lead.

Go to cspnc.org and see what is involved!

At the very least, there will be announcements soon re: the PRA Board, Annual Meeting, and yes, dues! Membership is an integral part of the fuel that drives the communication in this neighborhood.

White Point Landslide Geotechnical Report on Monday

Posted on June 14, 2012 by sanpedropalisades

Yes, that’s right, it’s almost here.

Originally scheduled for mid April, City of Los Angeles Engineer Gary Lee Moore will present findings of the geotechnical report about the White Point Landslide at a public meeting this Monday, June 18, 6:30 PM at White Point Elementary School Auditorium at 1410 Silvius Avenue.

As we understand it, the report will detail factors that contributed to the slide, as well as proposed repair options, along with estimated costs associated with each. The written report will be available the following day, on the Dept. of Engineering website.

Interestingly, Community leaders and elected Board members from Coastal San Pedro Neighborhood Council, CSPNC ad hoc Landslide Committee – who serve the City, nor your PRA Board, and/or PRA Traffic Committee, have not been provided or debriefed with this information or consulted with in preparation for this meeting. This means we’re all hearing it for the first time at the same time.

Your CSPNC and PRA Boards will hold their monthly meetings at the regularly scheduled times. CSPNC will hold their Board Session also at 6:30 Monday night 06.19 at the Cabrillo Marina Community Room.

Live at the Corner Store Auditorium… Monday at 6:00.

SLIDE TO THE TIDE
It’s time to reconvene to get the latest update on where we are on our “Slide to the Tide.” Some very interesting developments that up until now may have been shared via e-mail chatter. You’ll hear it all from the horse’s mouth as we have all levels of government now called to action and reporting consistently, from County Hall to City Hall, Public Works, DWP, DOT, Rec and Parks and PVPLC – all engaged and ready to give us the lowdown on all the “moving” parts – the real deal. Get your questions answered now.

NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH
Please join your fellow residents in welcoming new LAPD Senior Lead Officer Evening “Eve” Wight for an interactive visit.

DINE & WHINE @ CORNER STORE
Let’s show Peggy + Bruce how grateful we are for the Corner Store and hospitality. Plan to have a bite or two and a few sips… Better yet – dinner and drinks! If asked, as a bonus, I would imagine Peggy would break out her very authentic witches laugh she was able to attract so many with on Halloween night.

VOTE!
