Planning Official to Add Two to Advisory Board
Acting Los Angeles city planning director Melanie Fallon, who was criticized this week because an 11-member advisory panel included only one homeowner representative, said Friday she will appoint two additional members to make the panel “better balanced.”
Fallon said she will appoint an additional homeowner representative and an attorney for an environmental group to the Ad Hoc Task Force on EIR Procedures, formed to help reshape procedures for preparing city environmental impact reports.
The remaining panelists, except for one city employee, were developers, attorneys for developers or consultants for developers, all with business before City Hall.
