Yosemite Drive Safety

On November 15 th 2017, The Eagle Rock Association (TERA) sent a letter to Council District 14 requesting the City address known and on-going traffic safety issues on Yosemite Drive. That letter was prompted by a horrific car crash one month prior that sent a student to the hospital. It is now seven months since that letter and no indication the City will do anything to substantially improve conditions along the corridor for the thousands of residents and students that interact with the street every day. The fundamental issue on Yosemite – a street design that favors car speeds over pedestrian safety – remains unchanged. As the one year anniversary of the aforementioned crash approaches, TERA urges immediate action so that students and residents alike need not fear being struck during the simple act of crossing the street or exiting one’s driveway.

Taco Bell Update

At its hearing on July 25th, the East Los Angeles Area Planning Commission approved revisions to the Taco Bell site project at Colorado Boulevard and La Roda Avenue as part of a compromise that Nader Ashoori (the owner) reached with The Eagle Rock Association (TERA). The compromise reflects important changes to the site’s redesign and includes pedestrian safety enhancements, redesigned vehicular circulation, robust landscaping, and additional trash receptacles.

President’s Message on StorQuest

TERA recently released a letter of support for the proposed StorQuest storage facility located at 2803 W. Broadway, the former Ernie Jr.’s site. TERA’s support of this project has been controversial so I would like to shed some light on our position.

One concern that I have heard raised is that TERA has changed its position on the project. However, If you read our initial letter of January 26th, you will see that TERA always supported the storage-facility use. Our initial non-support of the project was based on the fact that an expedited process had been put in place and that did not give the community time to effectively evaluate the project and give constructive feedback. Our other concern was that size and scope of the project needed to be counterbalanced by community benefit. Given that there was little time to reconcile these issues prior to the applicant’s initial hearing, TERA decided they could not support the project.
