Last week, Echo Park Lake got shut down for repairs. Police and city officials required all the homeless living there to leave and offered them hotel rooms. On Tuesday, Venice Stakeholders President Mark Ryavec called for similar actions to be taken in the Venice Beach Recreation Area, one of the city's largest and most popular parks.
The Venice Stakeholders Association is dedicated to civic improvement. The VSA supports slow growth, protection of the limits of the Venice Local Coastal Specific Plan, neighborhood safety, better traffic circulation, increased parking for residents, neighborhood beautification projects, historic preservation and protection of coastal waters.
