Recent News

- Stop sign at Rodney and Kingswell has been installed after nearly three years of effort by a tenacious stakeholder, GGPNC Transportaion committee and CD4 staff.  Thanks to All. 

-Traffic light @ Finley and Hillhurst is APPROVED!l. This will make that intersection much safer and will most likely help control the speed of traffic on Hillhurst.  Construction completed!

-Congratulations to newly elected GGPNC board members. We look forward to more active involvement regarding the Transportation issues in an around Los Feliz.

-With the help of Tom LaBonge's office and Film LA, film productions will no longer be able to acquire permits on Welch Place past the area where the wall of the Masonic Temple ends. This is a great victory for the residents of Welch Place as the parking will no longer be compromised and the pre school, All Children Great and Small, will no longer be at risk for traffic issues due to film crews.
