Wrapping Up – November Community Outreach

November Brainstorming Workshops

The Westside Mobility Plan hosted five Community Brainstorming Workshops in November 2011:

November 1: Brockton Avenue School Multi-Purpose Room/Auditorium
November 3: Penmar Recreation Center Gymnasium
November 7: Paseo del Rey Natural Science Magnet Auditorium
November 9: Westside Pavilion Meeting Room B
November 10: Henry Medina West LA Parking Enforcement Facility

The meetings were designed in an “open house” format to allow participants to attend any time during the session. Participants provided input at the brainstorming stations and learned more about the project from City staff and consultant team members.

Brainstorming Stations

Below you can find the material presented at the Brainstorming Stations:

• Project Overview
• Project Fact Sheet
• Bicycle and Pedestrian Planning
• Transit Brainstorming
• Roadway Infrastructure & Operations Brainstorming
• Smart Choices for Commuting Brainstorming
• Parking Brainstorming

The ideas presented in the meeting materials were meant to stimulate community discussions. No decisions have been made!

Project Ideas via Electronic Surveying

Community participants shared their projects ideas via electronic surveying. The preference survey presented at the community open houses was also placed online as another means of providing interested participants with a way to share their input during this phase of the project. We received 82 online survey responses and many great comments.  Thanks to all of you that participated in this survey!

Thank you to everyone that was able to participate in these workshops.  Our next round of public outreach will occur in Spring 2012.
