On Thursday, September 17 from 7:45 am to 9:30 am, please join Westside Urban Forum for a conversation that explores how cities are responding to SB79.

SB 79 took effect July 1, and jurisdictions across the region are taking markedly different paths. Some have adopted local TOD alternative plans. Others are drafting their own SB 79 implementation ordinances. Some are planning to use the program as written at the state level. Join planning staff from Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and Culver City for a firsthand look at how each is interpreting, implementing, and processing SB 79 cases.

Speakers:
Rachel Kwok,  Environmental Planner, City of Santa Monica
Chloe Chen, Principal Planner, Beverly Hills
Troy Evangelho,  Advance Planning Manager, Culver City

Moderator:
Noah Adler, Senior Land Use Planner, Manatt

7:45 am – 9:30 am

Directions
Avoid the stress of rush hour and skip traffic! The Helms Design Center at 8745 Washington Blvd in Culver City is conveniently located a short, pleasant walk from a number of transit lines, including:

Metro Rail “E” (Expo) Line Culver City Station (1 block west at Washington and National Blvds), and

Culver City Bus “1” and “1C1” lines (at the adjacent Washington Blvd/Helms Avenue street corner).

Protected bike lanes along Washington Blvd. connecting to Culver City’s larger bike lane network also provide a convenient, safe way to get to the Design Center.
