Government Affairs Committee Meeting
Please come out for our March Government Affairs Committee meeting where we will be discussing a fresh slate of interesting issues!
Senate Bill 50 (Wiener) is a bill that would increase residential housing density near transit lines and place restrictions on the ability of cities to limit development in such areas. As such, the bill could have an important impact on land use planning in cities such as Beverly Hills and beyond. Please come out for an important presentation on this bill from a variety of perspectives.
We will also discuss the latest news on potential laws that would prohibit the sale of fur and alligator/crocodile skin sales in California. This is an issue that significantly impacts our business community. The Chamber is opposed to a ban onthe sale of these items and is working with stakeholders on this important issue. Please come out to learn more about these efforts and how you can get involved.
The City of Beverly Hills is evaluating potential signage displays about the City's smoking policy to be displayed around the City. Please come out for a discussion of this important issue and to provide your input.
We will be receiving an important update about construction on Section 2 of the LA Metro Purple Line Subway, which includes a stop at Wilshire Blvd. and Reeves Drive. Construction is expected to intensify in 2019 and there are many important elements local businesses should be aware of. Representatives from LA Metro and the City of Beverly Hills will be on hand along with a presentation and discussion of these important issues.
The Committee will also get updates on other local, state and federal matters. This will be an excellent opportunity to learn about the important issues impacting our City and region and to provide your input! Please join us!
