The Valley Village Homeowners Association hosted a public forum on Planning at their quarterly meeting January 20. Moderated by VVHA President Paul Hatfield, the meeting included a panel discussion and Q&A with representatives of VVHA’s Board, NCVV’s Planning and Land Use Committee and the Office of Paul Krekorian.
Over 100 people heard updates on Valley Village projects as well as an open discussion about planning and zoning – including information about the Valley Village Specific Plan and North Hollywood/Valley Village Community Plan. “The discussion made it clear to the members present that both VVHA and NCVV are dealing with development and mansionization issues to the extent zoning and ordinances allow” said President Paul Hatfield after the meeting. “Houses or projects that appear to be too large are in many cases allowable – however out of character they may appear – yet all cases brought to the attention of both NCVV and VVHA are thoroughly evaluated against the requirements of the Valley Village Specific Plan.”
