Join us for a meeting of the Land Use, Construction & Housing Council.
 
2017 Planning and Land Use Priorities for the City of Los Angeles 

Wednesday, Jan. 25
**Please note earlier start time
9 - 10:30 a.m.
  

L.A. Area Chamber 
350 S. Bixel St.
Los Angeles, CA 90017

For years, Councilman Huizar has been a pivotal voice in shaping development and land use in the City of Los Angeles as chair of the Planning and Land Use Management Committee (PLUM). Join us as he once again kicks off our first meeting of the year, sharing his priorities and plans for PLUM and the city's upcoming legislative session.

The Council will also hear an update on the Measure S opposition campaign. Scheduled for the City of L.A.’s March 7 ballot, this initiative would impose a construction moratorium on almost every significant project in the City. Measure S would undermine Mayor Garcetti’s goal of building 100,000 new housing units and put thousands of construction workers out of a job.

Building on these discussions, we will use this meeting to solidify the Chamber's 2017 Land Use, Construction and Housing advocacy agenda.

 
The Land Use, Construction & Housing Council advocates for policies and programs that create sustainable, economically robust communities through smart growth planning, public-private partnerships and investment in congestion relief solutions. This also includes a special focus on building more workforce housing, reforming the city's planning and permitting process, strengthening our public transportation system and addressing L.A. County's homelessness crisis. 
 
All Council meetings are open to Chamber members only. Media and guests are only allowed with prior approval.  
Special Guest:  

 
Honorable José Huizar 
Los Angeles City Council, District 14
