3.  LAPD CRIME REPORT

Senior Lead Officer Chris Ragsdale’s recent report to the Westwood Community Council:

• Westwood is a “target rich” environment.  In 2018, there were 189 crimes, the 4th highest in the 65 sq. mile area of West LA.
• 100 + were thefts that took place between noon and 6 pm.  The majority of those were in businesses, department stores and parking lots.  Most of the victims were “visitors” to Westwood.
• 10 of the 189 crimes were aggravated assaults, 10 were violent crimes.
• In 2019, so far, there have been 60 crimes, same time (noon to 6 pm) and in the same locations.

Warning – Postmates Delivery Scam
A homeowner on Comstock near Holmby Park reported the following incident.  Last Saturday, someone carrying a small bag knocked on her door claiming to be delivering food from Postmates.  The homeowner, who did not open the door, had not ordered food so the delivery person left.  It is possible that the delivery person was actually a “lookout”, and had no one answered the door, the delivery person may have assessed the home as a target and then attempted to break in.  This is a common operation among thieves so please take appropriate precautions.

1.  HWPOA ANNUAL MEETING

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I want to thank those who attended our 57th Annual meeting this past Tuesday.  Your Board of Directors was elected as presented and I would like to congratulate all the new board members!

Thanks also goes to our informative guest speakers:

• Councilmember Paul Koretz, who discussed a variety of local issues
• West LAPD Senior Lead Officer Chris Ragsdale, who gave an update on crime in the area
• The Holmby Westwood Green Team, who made a presentation about the parkway trees in Holmby Westwood
• Esther Magna of Save Hilgard Avenue, who explained issues related to the proposed Agora development

We had a full house; I apologize that we had to close it to only our membership, for the first time ever.  The following notice had been posted on Facebook prior to our meeting:

Westwood Neighbors for Sensible Growth
WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT ON MAY 14th AND JUNE 2nd!

There is a Holmby Westwood Property Owners Association meeting next Tuesday, May 14th and Councilman, Paul Koretz will be in attendance. If you would like to come to show your solidarity against the Belmont/Westwood Presbyterian Church project (as proposed which violates current zoning laws and WWSC Specific Plan) all you need to do is email: info.wnsg@gmail.com if you email & plan to attend, and we will make certain to bring a t-shirt for you.

It will be held at Belmont Village 10475 Wilshire at 7:15 PM with parking below – take elevator to Ground level. Just look for one of us in the t-shirt.”

Our Annual meeting, as stated in our bylaws, is for our membership although, in years past, it has been open to anyone who wanted to attend.  We are guests at Belmont, but it is home to its many residents.  I did not want “outsiders” interrupting the councilman and, in turn, our meeting, or possibly disturbing Belmont residents.  Let’s hope that next year there are no issues that could cause disruption.  This is not usual behavior of our Westwood neighbors!

Thank you,
Sandy Brown, HWPOA President

3.  HOUSING BILL UPDATE – SB 50

From Preserve LA:

VICTORY! SB 50 Has Been Shelved

Earlier this week, the Appropriations Committee killed SB 50. Together we did it!  An unprecedented and sweeping experiment, SB 50 would have targeted and destroyed single-family neighborhoods and apartments alike, with the state forcing cities to dramatically shift housing production to smaller rental units.

Sen. Portantino, chair of the Appropriations Committee, used his power to deep freeze this bill until 2020 when it will be up for debate again.

For now we can take a breath before we gear up for another fight.

4.  UCLA CENTENNIAL LIGHT SHOW

5.  FIRE STATION #71 – LANDSCAPE BEAUTIFICATION PROJECT

On April 3, Adopt Fire Station #71 (Beverly Glen & Sunset) and the Bel-Air Garden Club celebrated the completion of the Landscape Beautification Project.  March Wisely did a fabulous job in designing both the front and rear of the building, even engineering a putting green for the firefighters enjoyment!  After perhaps, 50 years, it was time to replant and replenish!

We thank those residents who, over the years, have contributed to our station so that our Adopt program could provide for improvements and additional creature comforts for our most deserving first responders.

6.  PROPOSED SOCCER FIELD AT WESTWOOD PARK

The Westwood Park Advisory Board is considering a proposal to install a second gated soccer field, taking 2 existing tennis courts and additional park land.   The funds for the field have been donated by a family in memory of their son.

At a hearing before the Westwood Neighborhood Council earlier this month, many Westwood residents, both users and neighbors of Westwood Park, voiced their objections to the soccer field, citing parking issues, concerns regarding the use of synthetic grass and yet another gated use at this small park.

Another public meeting to discuss the proposal is scheduled for Thursday, May 23 at Westwood Park:

3.  HOLMBY WESTWOOD GREEN TEAM – TREE SURVEY

The HWPOA Green Team is again working with the UCLA Geography Department to study Holmby Westwood’s valuable “urban forest.”  Over the next 4-5 weeks you may see students working in pairs throughout the neighborhood measuring the height and diameter of our street trees and photographing them.  The students are working on refining the Holmby Westwood Street Tree Inventory to give us more complete information on our trees—both the range of species in the neighborhood and an assessment of their condition.  Please welcome the students as they complete their work.

If you have any questions, please contact:

4.  HOUSING BILL UPDATE – SB 50

SB 50 is a bill that would allow developers to build four- to five-story residential projects near rail stations and major transit stops. If this bill passes, cities and counties would be forced to relax their zoning requirements and allow the construction of smaller apartment or townhouse projects in single family neighborhoods.

Many L.A. neighborhood groups have come out against the bill, arguing that it would shift planning decisions to Sacramento.  Last month, the L.A. City Council voted 12-0 to oppose SB 50.  In San Francisco, hometown of the bill’s author, the Board of Supervisors, after a thorough study of SB 50, voted 9-to-2 to oppose it.

Now, SB 50 is making its way through our state legislature.  The Senate Appropriations Committee will be voting on it on Monday, May 13th. SB 50 was amended last week such that a fourplex will be allowed on any R-1 lot with few exceptions.

A note from City Councilmember Paul Koretz:

As I pointed out in this recent LA Times article, if SB 50 passes, it will destroy single-family home neighborhoods in Southern California and will do nothing to address the need for more affordable housing.  SB 50 kills local planning rules, letting buildings tower over homes.  The towers can include NO parking, NO space for trees, NO setbacks, and NO design standards.  All that developers must do is include a few “affordable” rental units.

For the sake of the need for affordable housing and protecting Los Angeles single-family neighborhoods, please tell your State Legislature to Vote NO on SB 50.

Sincerely,
Paul Koretz
Los Angeles Councilmember of the Fifth District

5.  PROPOSED SOCCER FIELD AT WESTWOOD PARK

The Westwood Park Advisory Board is considering a proposal to install a second gated soccer field, taking 2 existing tennis courts and additional park land.   The funds for the field have been donated by a family in memory of their son.

At a hearing before the Westwood Neighborhood Council on Wednesday evening, many Westwood residents, both users and neighbors of Westwood Park, voiced their objections to the soccer field, citing parking issues and yet another gated use at this small park.  As you might recall, a dog park and the original gated soccer field have chipped away at the open space available to park users.  A suggestion was made to put this soccer field at Cheviot Park where there is much more open space.  The donor stated that would be acceptable.

Another objection was the artificial grass that would be used for the field as it is for the existing soccer field.  Many stated that this is a synthetic “fix” (plastic) and is not biodegradable.  Also, park-goers do not want to see 3 fenced-in uses but prefer to see open space where their children can run and play on the grass.

Another public meeting to discuss the proposal is scheduled for Thursday, May 23 at Westwood Park:

Westwood Park Advisory Board
Community Meeting
Thursday, May 23 at 7:00 PM
Weswood Recreation Center
Room C

If you would like to voice your opinion regarding this project, please be sure to attend this meeting.

3.  LAPD CRIME REPORT

BURGLARY FROM VEHICLE
Incident #: 190808983
WOODRUFF AV & S BEVERLY GLEN BL  |  4/17/2019 @ 8:00 AM

CAR BREAK-IN STATISTICS
The below information comes from the West LA Auto Detective Supervisor.  Regarding reported thefts or burglaries from all West LA vehicles last week:

• 6 crimes were very difficult to prevent such as theft of parts (plates, wheels, catalytic converters, etc).
• The remaining 27 (82%) are opportunistic.  Items left visible, causing window smash and unlocked thefts.

So, this week’s Community Alert implores all of you to NOT leave any items of value in your parked vehicles.  Essentially, LOCK IT, HIDE IT, KEEP IT.  It may seem redundant–it has certainly become our battle-cry– but we can’t emphasize enough how even an empty bag, loose change, a jacket or a pair of sunglasses can win you a broken window and a theft or burglary from your vehicle.

4.  RACCOON ALERT

A homeowner on Malcolm recently reported that raccoons have been invading their yard.  Please be sure to remove all potential food sources for the raccoons and keep garbage tightly sealed.  Raccoons are omnivorous, and their appetite is often the main factor for the damage they cause.

Raccoons may also tear off shingles from the roof to gain access to the attic, or take refuge inside an uncapped chimney. Raccoons like to crawl under the eaves of a roof to gain entry to the attic.

For more information about raccoons, click here:
