City Council to Consider SMO Flight Path Impacts
|
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, with the concurrence of the Mayor, that by adoption of this resolution, the City of Los Angeles hereby includes in its 2015-16 Federal Legislative Program SUPPORT for the FAA to adopt Metroplex procedures that seek to eliminate takeoff convergence and conflicts of primary departures flight tracks at LAX and SMO, thereby reducing or making unnecessary the sequencing of LAX and SMO takeoffs, and eliminating the cause for delays at both LAX and SMO; and that if noise and air pollution impacts are to be taken into consideration in the design of air traffic corridors and flight path operations, that such impacts be fairly allocated so as not to shift the full or disproportionate burden of the impacts from Santa Monica's airport on to the residents of City of Los Angeles.

Call for Artists - Power of Art
|
Attention Artists! We would like you to be a part of the largest art project in the history of Los Angeles, Power of Art. We are physically turning
LA into the largest art gallery in the world and we would be honored if you submitted your work for consideration.
For centuries, artists have been pushed to the side, disrespected and taken advantage of for their talent. This is especially true in Los Angeles. But
enough is enough. It is time to bring opportunity to artists and bring them out of the shadows.
Power of Art is unveiling LA's soul in the streets. We have successfully fought to secure mural access to over 4,000 signal boxes in Los Angeles.
