Tomorrow's BHNC General Board meeting agenda includes the following items. [These items were original on the BHNC PLUC agenda (October 13th), but due to that meeting being canceled because we did not me quorum,
was moved to the General Board Meeting. This was because they were
considered "time sensitive." The PLUC did NOT take a position or give a
recommendation regarding these projects.]:
Item 7. Update on Lorena project. (this is regarding the 1st & Lorena Project)
Item 10.b. Discussion and possible action regarding Cesar Chavez and Soto (this is regarding a Metro development project next to King Taco, called: "La Veranda")
These are community issues regarding gentrification. I believe that they are going to be more of a public outreach providing information. [I do not know if public questions/comments will be allowed during Item 7.]
But the one that people are currently trend[ing] is this one:
Item 4. Discussion and possible action regarding the petition to remove a board member, Carlos Montes
to be preceded by:
Item 3.President’s Message regarding General Board Meeting.
i.Respect for your Boyle Heights Neighborhood Council Board
ii.Trespass Warning City of Los Angeles
iii.Rules of Civility
I will openly admit that i am of the opinion, that during his tenure as President of the BHNC, that Carlos was one of the most active members of the Council and one of the most productive. I firmly stand with him on this issue.

The current president has declared openly that these meetings will not go on for longer then two hours and defiantly not three hours. So be as concise and forceful with your comments as possible. And please note that although there is a 1 minute time limit on public comments, if you go over that limit, it will most likely be allowed. However, don't get distracted when they say "time." Just finish what you are saying, and please stick to your comment/point. Commenting that it's not enough time, shortens the amount of time that OTHERS have to comment.
I will be recording the meeting and posting it online on the YouTube channel Boyle Heights Transparency as soon as i can. Audio and Video links and downloads will ALSO be available for download later (usually the next day) on my site B[oyle] H[eights] Transparency
The meeting starts at 6pm, the 28th of October in the Boyle Heights City Hall South Community Hall Room. Enter through the parking lot.
2130 East First Street
