Community Plan Update

Westchester-Playa’s Planning Process News & Resource

CPU DEIR: BaBWP’s Public Comment on Study Scope

The next step in the Westchester-Playa CPU process? Planning will be drafting an Environmental Impact Report (DEIR), and to kick off the process they asked for public input.

BaBWP made public comment not about specific topics, but about the need to include overlapping info from LAX’s EIRs and new State law mandates.

Our recent CPU posts

Currently LA City Planning is putting the entire Westside—including Westchester-Playa—through a Community Plan Update (CPU) process.

These posts aim to improve stakeholder access to important CPU news and information.
