Discussion: Michael Meyer brought up the problematic traffic jams and gridlock that occur in the Hollywood Blvd./Franklin Ave./Highland Ave. areas, on occasions when there are street closures on Hollywood Blvd. (e.g. movie premieres, awards ceremonies, etc.)- causing local residents unnecessary, time-consuming inconvenience driving to and from their homes-aside from congesting traffic & gridlock. MOTION & VOTE: 5 votes for motion

Rena Dheming reported that Grant Parking lot (between Cherokee Ave. & Las Palmas Ave.) noise & loitering nuisance problem, has temporarily ceased, for the moment, due to Las Palmas Restaurant/Nightclub, being closed for business TEMPORARILY, since first week of January 2005. Mentioned that there is still a need to get parking lot security, in the near future.

Also, Rena also brought up the need for a posted, visual sign to go up on the NORTHEAST and/or SOUTHEAST corner of HIGHLAND & YUCCA ST. alerting motorists driving NORTHBOUND on Highland Ave.- that turning right on YUCCA ST.- detours traffic TO THE RIGHT ON LAS PALMAS AVENUE ONLY-back on to Hollywood Blvd.- to avoid motorists turning unnecessarily and recycling the traffic in a circle, trying to get out of the traffic on Highland Ave. MOTION & VOTE: Passed 5 to 0 for motion.
