There is a Developer in a sleepy residential country part of LA called the Roscomare Valley. He has a bought a simple 1 story 4 unit apartment, the back of which looks down a valley at a home and other private homes. He wants to build a 4 story building cantilevered on the third and 4th floor over the hill. This project is two properties south of one of the finest public schools in LA, Roscomare Road School. The road is hilly, windy, small, and the only way in or out of the community. It is hard to get children in or out of the school and people to and from work and garbage trucks up and down on Wednesday.
LA City does not want the builder to put balconies on the western side (back) facing the private home. The folks that live in the valley don't want the balconies without restrictions on noise and light polution and privacy impingement. The Builder wants to modify the City's condition to delete it.
This petition wants to modify and/or add conditions for the Builder as follows:
1. The Buider is to maintain a privacy screen of 24-36' box dense canopy trees of 40-75 height planted as close on center as possible.
2. The builder is to turn off lights and not allow parties or balcony occupancy facing west down the hill from 10PM to 7AM daily.
3. During construction, deliveries of trucks with more than 2 axles and 6 wheels shall not occur between 7AM and 10 AM and also 1:15 and 6PM on Mon-Friday, except holidays.
The momentum behind this fight proves that the residents of Roscomare Valley are done letting developers run over our neighborhoods. We are forcing the city to look at these reckless building plans and the developer will not be able to ignore us much longer.

KEEP THE BALCONIES CLOSED AT NIGHT. We dont need loud parties keeping the whole valley up. My kids go to school right there and traffic is bad enough as it is.

4 stories cantilevered over the hill? Are they insane? That is going to block every view and ruin the quiet of the valley.

Just let the builder finish but make him follow the rules. Privacy is a big deal to us.

This is ridiculous. That road is way too narrow for more construction trucks. Please protect the residents.

The traffic there is already a nightmare during drop off. Adding a huge building like that is just asking for a major accident.

Living in Roscomare is tough enough with the trash trucks. The city needs to force them to use those privacy trees or the developer shouldnt be allowed to build anything.
