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.

There’s currently a bill pending before the California Assembly (it has already passed the Senate) that would allow liquor to be sold until 4 a.m. TERA wants to hear what you think – do you agree with this? Would you prefer alcohol to be sold until 4 a.m? Or, remain as is (currently, you can purchase alcohol between the hours of 6 a.m. and 2 a.m.)?
TERA was an early supporter for Vidiots Foundation’s plan to restore the historic Eagle Theatre at the intersection of Eagle Rock Boulevard and Yosemite Drive.
In August 2020, the City of Los Angeles wrongly applied onerous and unfair conditions of operation on Vidiots which would make Vidiots’ operation infeasible and take away funding from Vidiots programming.
Determined to right this wrong and ensure Vidiots’ long term success, TERA filed an appeal to remove these incorrectly applied conditions in September 2020. In December 2020, the East Area Planning Commission approved TERA’s appeal and unanimously voted to eliminate unfair conditions that the City had imposed on Vidiots. Due to a frivolous lawsuit against Vidiots by a disgruntled homeowner, TERA would end up twice more organizing community voices to communicate support for Vidiots in February 2023 and finally in October 2023, both times achieving unanimous approval from the East Area Planning Commission for reduced requirements on Vidiots.
Vidiots opened in June 2023 and has been a thorough success. TERA is proud to have played a part in helping to bring Vidiots to Eagle Rock, and to help ensure Vidiots’ long term success at the historic Eagle Theatre.
