To our members and the Eagle Rock community, TERA officially endorses the Beautiful Boulevard plan to make BRT on Colorado Blvd work for all members of our community. We also believe there must be funding support for our businesses impacted by the project’s construction and a plan to deter potential cut-through traffic in the neighborhood.

The Eagle Rock Association wholeheartedly supports the Vidiots Foundation’s application for a conditional use permit for the use and sale of alcohol in conjunction with the proposed renovation of the Eagle Theatre at 4884 N. Eagle Rock Boulevard. TERA believes this proposed development is a critical component of the renovation and re-imagining of Eagle Rock Boulevard.
L.A. Metro has launched the Transit Oriented Communities Small Business Loan Recovery Program to provide businesses near transit with up to $20,000 in loan funds to cover operating expenses. Eligible Los Angeles County small businesses located within a ¼-mile of a Major Transit Stop — in Eagle Rock, the only qualifying stop is the intersection of Eagle Rock and Colorado Boulevards. Loan applications will be accepted from Thursday, June 4, 2020, at 12 PM to Thursday, June 11, 2020, at 5 PM.
Introducing L.A. Al Fresco
Mayor Garcetti recently launched L.A. Al Fresco, a new program to temporarily provide expanded outdoor dining opportunities for restaurants as dine-in services are allowed but with limits on capacity. L.A. Al Fresco aims to help businesses reopen while allowing customers and employees to maintain the physical distance recommended by public health officials by temporarily relaxing the rules that regulate outdoor dining. This will enable restaurants to expand their potential service despite limited indoor space.
The City is offering streamlined, immediate approval for eligible restaurants to provide outdoor dining in the following areas:
- Sidewalks
- Private Parking Lots
The City is also collecting expressions of interest from restaurants, groups of restaurants or entities such as Business Improvement Districts (BIDs), Business Associations, and Chambers of Commerce to potentially expand the program to the following outdoor areas at a later date:
- Street Parking Spaces (Parklets)
- Partial and Full Street Closures
Please also contact TERA if you are interested in utilizing parklets or partial/full street closures and we will work with you to support your request.
