Zone 0 Landscaping Regulations
MySafeLA is submitting a letter to the advisory committee of the state Board of Forestry -- as have PPCC and the Palisades Forestry Committee -- reflecting concerns about the proposed new draconian Zone 0 rules and urging the advisory committee to take into account scientific data going forward in the process (currently, we're told that the committee will continue to recommend very strict rules near the perimeter of homes (pots only with plants no higher than 18" within 5 ft. of the structure) and may still be considering limiting vegetation to no more than 2 ft. in height within 10 ft. of homes).

Residents are encouraged to sign on to the letter (scroll to the end to sign on)!

Next PPCC Meeting
PPCC's first meeting in June will take place on
June 12, 2025,
at 6pm via Zoom.  We expect to hear from invited guest speakers with information of interest to the community (to be confirmed).  There will be updates from the Rebuild Committee (on the status of the NORC survey) and the Land Use Committee (with proposed motions regarding housing density legislation and possibly on the city's "110% rebuild" methodology).
We'll also take up a motion recommended by the Westside Regional Alliance of Councils, calling for Caltrans to
postpone a large project to repave the 405 through the Sepulveda Pass
until
PCH is fully reopened
and the
Palisades debris removal is completed.
Stay tuned for more information -- all are welcome at PPCC board meetings!
