LA ZOO VIRTUAL MEETING AND PUBLIC COMMMENT
|
|
|
In 2016, the L.A. Zoo began a public process for what would become the Zoo’s Vision Plan for 2028 and Beyond to help transform the campus into a modern facility focused on conservation and community. That plan was released in 2018 and in 2021 the plan’s Environmental Impact Report (EIR), which was developed with a public feedback process, was published by the City’s Bureau of Engineering (BOE), and transmitted by the Zoo to the Los Angeles City Council.
Since then, over the past year, our office asked the Zoo to listen, engage, and reflect on the feedback shared in response to the proposed Vision Plan and last month, the Zoo released its revised plan – Alternative 1.5, or the California Focused Conservation Alternative. The plan includes significant changes made in response to public input, including the preservation of many mature trees and more native habitats.
The public will have until 8/29 to review the changes in its EIR and provide additional feedback, and we encourage you to make your voice heard! Comments must be submitted to the City’s Bureau of Engineering HERE. You can also share your comments directly with the L.A. City Council (Council File No. 21-0828) HERE.
The L.A. Zoo will be hosting a virtual public hearing on August 15th at 6PM to present the plan. You can sign in at that time using the link and information below:

Have general labor needs? The Hollywood Community Job Center can connect you with workers to help with moving, demolition, gardening, construction work (drywall, tile, stucco, roofing, plumbing, etc.), as well as domestic work (cleaning, caregiving childcare etc.). We are a non-profit under contract with the City of LA and not a private agency so there is no fee for you or the worker. We also accept all donations to better support workers and their families. *Please note workers will not provide supplies, prices based on labor only. We are a non profit funded by the city of Los Angeles
The Day Labor Resource Centers Program in the City of Los Angeles is a public safety program, which allows persons seeking casual labor work to safely congregate and be matched with employers seeking temporary workers. The program provides fixed hiring centers in selected areas of the City where persons participating in the casual labor force can safely congregate to solicit employment from residents and businesses seeking day labor. A Day Labor Resource Center provides a safe space away from traffic and busy streets, decreasing the potential for an accident and provides basic amenities to day laborers such as water, coffee, bread, lavatories, waste disposal, benches and shade. There are no fees to employers or day laborers to utilize the services at any site.
