ACTION
Per Bill Bergstrom from the Chamber of Commerce, the MTA needs community support for long-range plans for Wilshire Blvd.
- MTA is developing their long range plan right now
- Wilshire should be a major part of that but officials need to see community support
- the Miracle Mile/ Wilshire Corridor community has not been heard from
- April 25 is the deadline for public comment
- Wilshire Subway is one of several long range projects the Board is looking into
IF YOU SUPPORT THE WILSHIRE SUBWAY, PLEASE CONTACT THE MTA -- DEADLINE IS APRIL 25:
