Featured Speaker : Chip Meehan, , Director of Corporate Partnerships, Friends of the LA River (FoLAR)

Chip will talk about the river areas at Sepulveda and Glendale Narrows, both locations having been declared “Recreation Areas”.  What were once lost and neglected areas, now feature many summer activities like nature walks, kayaking, bird watching, bat watching, and yoga. 

In addition, Chip will discuss other policy or advocacy topics such as ‘Crack the Concrete’, the fight for 100 acres of contiguous parkland on the east bank of the Taylor Yard G2 site,  as well as the push to get an extension for responding to the Environmental Impact Report for Casitas Lofts, a proposed luxury housing development.
