The chairman of the Los Angeles City Council’s redistricting committee scheduled a public hearing Tuesday night in Pacoima on a tentatively approved plan that would drastically change the political geography of the East San Fernando Valley. Chairman Richard Alatorre said he called the hearing in response to “requests by valley residents for an evening hearing in their area.” But City Hall observers said it was really an effort to win Mayor Tom Bradley’s support for the measure. Bradley has been under pressure from valley activists to veto the plan, which they believe will weaken their influence at City Hall.
