LOS ANGELES CITY HALL
The architects may not have had it in mind, but L.A.'s City Hall is famed as a co-star in the classic tv series Dragnet and Adam-12. The mayor's office and the L.A. City Council's meeting chambers are located in this center for the government of the City of L.A. Completed in 1928, there are 32 floors with a public observation level on the 27th floor. The concrete in its tower was made with sand from each of California's 58 counties. In 1976 the site was designated an Historic-Cultural Monument.

REMINDER: LANCC MEETING JANUARY 2ND.
A reminder that our next LANCC meeting will be next Saturday, January 2nd, 10:00 a.m. at the Hollywood Constituent Center on Fountain, west of Vine St. DLANC has received a grant from the American Institute of Architects to study sustainability and the role of NC involved in such efforts. Ashley Zarella Hand from DLANC will give us an overview of the ongoing processes toward that goal. We will get an update on the BONCs efforts to “standardize” NC bylaws. I hope we can get a report from Chatsworth on their efforts to resolve the conflicts between their bylaws and the City Clerks election procedures for their NC. As we all know the city is in big trouble because of the budget shortfall. The results of the ERIP are finally hitting home with the city council. It’s time to explore the changing role of NCs and their relationship with the city. Come to the meeting with your thoughts and ideas on how NCs may have to reinvent themselves and how they might move forward as a major force in the political life of the city.
We’ll get the agenda out sometime tomorrow or Wednesday. Hope to see you all for a successful NC start of the New Year.
