John Walker Explains the Redistricting Victory for Studio City

The Studio City Neighborhood Council president offers his thoughts about the new district lines.

Dear Community:

Last Friday, the final vote took place re: Redistricting.  

With the help of all of your emails, I am told that over 240 were sent in - and to those who showed up for visual support, we can lay claim to a Victory!

Remember, that for the past 15 years both the Metro and the Campo have been allowed to remain totally within CD4, even though the Post Office recognizes them as being in Studio City, we have not had any influence or recognition in those areas,  until now!

Now, no development can take place that does not come through CD2 first!  This was a MUST for us!  We can also claim part of the Campo, two additional parks and all the residences on Whipple.  

We now represent 99% of all residences within Studio City as CD2.
Again, I want to thank all of you who helped and took part.  There is no doubt this would not have happened without your constant support.    

I also want to publicly thank Councilman Paul Krekorian and his Staff,  for a great job of negotiating, down to the wire, even while we were in the Chamber.
When you start with nothing, and end up with almost everything we wanted, you cannot look at this as a compromise - this is a real Victory for us all.

Respectfully,

John Walker

President, SCNC

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.

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.

Somewhat presumptuous this early on Voting Day.

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.
