The Pacific Palisades Community Council opposes the proposed revision to Los Angeles Municipal Code Section 67.02(b) regarding the Sidewalk and Transit Amenities Program, arguing that the vague language allowing BPW-approved outdoor advertising programs conflicts with the Mobility Element of the General Plan, which prohibits off-site advertising in the public right of way within 500 feet of designated Scenic Highways. The Council urges city officials to reject the revision or require further amendments to explicitly exempt designated Scenic Highways from future advertising programs.
