The crime and safety committee of the Studio City Neighborhood Council is a co-sponsor of a free crime and safety expo to be held from 10 a.m.-2 pm. Sunday at CBS Studios, 4024 Radford Ave., Studio City.
Several topics will be covered including how to prevent identify theft and how to start a Neighborhood Watch group.
There will also be a demonstration to see how fast a car burglary can occur.
A drive-through car-seat inspection will be held from noon-2 p.m.
Free Halloween safety lights will be available while supplies last.
For more information, call the Studio City Neighborhood Council's office at 818-655-5400.
In the only contested race in this year's Studio City Neighborhood Council elections held March 11, David Burg won soundly for the residential homeowner's seat on the board.
Burg received 114 votes. The other residential homeowner running for the seat, Erich Klain, received 29 votes.
All the other seats had only one candidate running for them, except the business property owner seat, which had no candidates.
The Studio City Neighborhood Council meets at 7 p.m. the third Wednesday of each month at the CBS Studio Center in the Annex 1 meeting room.
All council meetings are open to the public.
Meeting agendas are posted at least 72 hours before each meeting on the Web site www.scnc.info. They're also posted at the Studio City Public Library, Carpenter Elementary School, Studio City Recreational Center and outside the gate of CBS Studio Center.
On Oct. 6, the SCNC board voted unanimously to support a Community Impact Statement reinforcing concerns about Senate Bill 1818. Los Angeles Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky sent a four-page letter to Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa expressing the flaws of the SB1818, which allows for a range of density bonuses up to 35 percent based on the percentage of affordable units in adevelopment. Villaraigosa says the efforts to increase afforable housing by limiting the height of buildings is a “poorly thought-out effort.” Villaraigosa shares some of the same concerns and hopes to work them out.
The Crime and Safety Committee (CSC) of the Studio City Neighborhood Council (SCNC) contacted the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and subsequently had 11 new area lights installed on Arch Drvie and nine new area lights in the alley behind the motels on Ventura Boulevard. It's hoped they will counter the increasing number of crimes in this particular section of Studio City.
