The annual meeting of the Brentwood Homeowners Association (BHA) is not to be missed. Top officials from the City and County all show up, a tribute to BHA’s influence in Brentwood.
The meeting, held at Brentwood Middle School, was kicked off by BHA President Thelma Waxman. Despite the recent Palisades Fire, the mood was upbeat.
The heroes of the LAFD were applauded – several times. Fire hydrants across LA are being repaired. Crime is down.
Communication is way UP in Brentwood, as BHA played a leading role in keeping Brentwood residents informed during the fire, reported Thelma Waxman. Homeless encampments have been reduced in number – not enough, but things are moving in a good direction, according to Mayor Bass.
There is clear excitement about the upcoming World Cup, Super Bowl and Olympics that will be coming to Los Angeles. The excitement might be more about the progress that will be made getting LA ready than about the games themselves. Fewer potholes, anyone?
Traffic was the grayish-to-dark cloud hanging over the meeting. Traffic on Sunset is always bad, but cleanup and construction vehicles driving in and out of the Palisades could be with us for years, according to CD11 Councilmember Traci Park.
Park is pushing to get as much of this traffic as possible routed down PCH, she said.
