City of West Hollywood Invites Community to Meeting on Parking Considerations

The City of West Hollywood is set to hold a community meeting on August 22, 2024, to discuss parking changes along Vista/Gardner as part of the Willoughby, Vista/Gardner, and Kings Street Design Concept Plan. The meeting will take place at the Plummer Park Community Center and aims to provide residents with information on proposed parking reconfigurations while soliciting their feedback. This initiative is a component of the broader Pedestrian and Bicycle Mobility Plan, which was launched in 2019 and advocates for a safe and accessible environment for all modes of transport. The primary objective is to enhance neighborhood safety for pedestrians and cyclists by implementing strategic street improvements. These changes are expected to reduce cut-through traffic while creating smoother connections between residential and commercial areas.

The project has already received approval from the West Hollywood City Council, allowing it to proceed to the Design & Engineering Phase. During this phase, detailed engineering plans and cost estimates will be developed to guide the construction process. Community engagement has been a key aspect of this project, reflecting the city's commitment to involving residents in decisions that affect their neighborhoods.
