I believe we have an interesting and informative

meeting scheduled for November 2010. One of our speakers will be

Councilman Haderlein. At this time, we can recognize

him for the effort he has made to support both the

Association and East Pasadena’s needs. As you may

or may not know, Councilman Haderlein is not running

for reelection.

We do plan to have a general meeting in February

of 2011 and invite all candidates that are running

for the Council seat in District 4. We want to have a

question and answer session so we will get to know

each candidate and their positions on items that will

impact our area.

We are also going to have a column in each

newsletter which deals with ways we can improve the

appearance of our neighborhood. If you have suggestions

or concerns on how to improve the area, please

call or write me with your concerns or suggestions.

By the end of this month we hope to have a

resolution on the LHR zoning overlay. The City Planning

Department promised at our April 2010 meeting

they would be finished with amending the zoning

standards for residential construction in Lower Hastings

Ranch by June or July. Obviously, they have not

met this deadline, but we hope they have a proposal

that is acceptable by our November meeting.
