Goldberg's Way of Planning L.A.'s Neighborhoods

L.A. Councilwoman Jackie Goldberg has received more media attention and critical commentary about her efforts to ensure freedom of speech for demonstrators at the Democratic National Convention than she has for her commitment to community empowerment and sound planning in her Hollywood district. But close attention to quality of life concerns has led to an innovative Station Neighborhood Area Plan for the Vermont/Western Corridor that is a model for smartly linking transportation and land use. In this TPR interview Goldberg discusses the plan, gives advice to LAUSD, and outlines the issues she will tackle as a State Legislator next year.
