LAX Expansion Stakeholder Group Meeting

For those of you who are all to vocal about the recent developments regarding LAX, I bring you a snippet from Councilwoman Cindy Miscikowski's January E-News 2005 (to her credit, I applaud her for making this meeting known to the public in advance. Certainly not what we have learned to expect from most of the antics in City Hall):

LAX UPDATE- Mark Your Calendars - On February 3rd at 6 pm, the first meeting of the Stakeholder Group for the LAX Master Plan will take place. It will be led by Bob Gilbert, the interim Stakeholder Liaison. In this first meeting, Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) will explain the LAX Master Plan implementation process and engage all stakeholders in an ongoing dialogue regarding LAX Master Plan decisions. Presentations will be given on the LAX Master Plan stakeholder liaison duties and responsibilities; how stakeholders are included in the LAX Master Plan implementation process, and status of the LAX Master Plan approval process and the LAX Master Plan advanced planning process.

My staff and I will attend and participate in the Stakeholder meeting. Additionally, representatives of the Mayor's office and members of the LAX Master Plan Advanced Planning Team will also be present. The meeting will take place at the Westin Los Angeles Airport Hotel. The hotel is located at 5400 West Century Blvd., Los Angeles. Parking will be validated. If you have additional questions about the Stakeholder Group or LAX in general, please contact David Kissinger of my staff at (310)568-8772. I look forward to seeing you there!

If there were ever an opportunity to be heard, this sounds like a good one!
