Borders of Rio Vista, Beverly Garland and that House on Laurel Canyon

Lisa Sarkin answers the questions from the community

Rio Vista Border Question

Can you tell me if is officially in Studio City or not? Thanks, Eric Torry

Yes, Eric, Rio Vista Elementary School is within Studio City, as Studio City is defined by the Department of Neighborhood Empowerment. The school is located on Whipple, which is the northern boundary of the  The school has been a recipient of funding for its library and other necessities for many years.  You can go to www.scnc.info and view the map of Studio City.

Beverly Garland Boundary?

Dear Lisa , I heard that the Beverly Garland Hotel is split right down the middle between North Hollywood and Studio City, and that because the business office part is in North Hollywood, and that is why the official address is considered there, is that true?—unsigned

No, the is entirely within Studio City. You can go to www.scnc.info and view the map of Studio City. The North Hollywood signage on the median on Vineland is located in the wrong place and should be moved north of Moorpark Street.

Living Near The Freeway

Is there any way to know how many cars go by my house at the freeway on 101 (I live near the underpass at Colfax)?—Steve B.

The 101 Freeway is run by the State of California, not the City.  You should contact CalTrans [www.caltrans.ca.gov] and make your request there.

The House Destroyed in the Landslide

Almost at the top of Laurel Canyon on the right going uphill there’s a house that had a landslide a few years ago. I think a girl and her father were killed there. What is happening to that house? Did anyone survive?

Nobody died when the house fell.  I have tried to get information, but there is a lawsuit pending and nobody is able to discuss it at this time.

Born of the 4th of July and Johnny Got His Gun are definitely not movies honoring our veterans.

I wish the media had countered Garcetti's claims with an examination of the facts and had exposedRead More his relationship with BIG development. Only the LA Weekly covered these stories--keep reading it and keep posting.

Oh, it was under announcements and not opinion so that is why I did not understand the post whichRead More appeared as facts.

Presumptuous? What about my "endorsement" is presumptuous. You don't really need toRead More respond😃, I just didn't understand the comment.

I attended N.H.H.S. in the mid-seventies. Mr. Reeves and Mr. Moelter were two of my favorites.Read More Loved Mr. McLeroy for Sociology.

great article Mary! Ms. Korney, she sometimes scared me to death! But always around christmas IRead More think of her and pronounce my letters clearly at the end of a word when I sing. I can still remember the song I had to sing for my final, "If ever I would leave you..." She taught me a lot. I agree with everything you said about Mr. Reeves. I had Mr. Pesin for Algebra, he did nothing to help further my math skills. The biggest flirt around, ick. We had a girl in school at the time that flirted her way to an A and hardly ever went to class. Go figure!! I also thought quite highly of Ms. Requiam. Glad she's still around.

I also notice Wendy Gruel has no platform, except taking money from special interest (most notablyRead More her puppet masters at the DWP) and having one of the most negative campaigns I've ever seen......no thanks, negative Wendy, fool me once.....Eric is our next Mayor....

The signs are everywhere! Please vote for Wendy, Nora. He is also running ads about Wendy GreuelRead More that he knows are outright lies.
