AREA POWER OUTAGE - Bel-Air Road & Beverly Glen Blvd.
Thank you to all the Bel-Air Association members who reported the Bel-Air Rd & Beverly Glen Blvd.-area power outage. To support the efforts of the many residents who have been in touch with LA DWP throughout the weekend, the Association responded to your concerns and has been in contact with representatives of LA DWP. We have received a projected time of 4 p.m. today (Monday) for all residents to have restored power.
Just outside the Association office, we have seen multiple LA DWP utility trucks and vehicles, so we know they are working hard to fix/restore the underground lines that appear to be the source of the outage.
If we receive any additional updates or information, we will post it on the blog at that time.
As always, Bel-Air Association members, please feel free to contact us here at the office should you need any assistance.

Saturday February 6, 2010 10:35 AM PST
Sobriety, drivers license checkpoint to be held tonight; 2009: 80 DUIs, 1156 hit and run accidents in West LA area
The purpose of the sobriety checkpoint is to reduce the number of traffic collisions
involving intoxicated drivers and hit and run collisions. In 2009, residents residing in the West Los Angeles Area endured 80 driving under the influence-related and 1,156 hit and run traffic collisions. The checkpoint will educate the community to use designated drivers and not drink and drive. Our message is simple: If we catch you drunk, you will be arrested.
It is the Los Angeles Police Department's goal to continue providing public awareness on the dangers of drinking and driving, and the laws concerning driving without a valid driver's license. Motorists approaching a checkpoint will observe traffic signs, information and police officers advising that a checkpoint is ahead. Once diverted into a lane, each motorist will be detained momentarily while an officer explains the purpose of the checkpoint.
Funding for this checkpoint is provided by the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration. We can all help make our streets safer, please report Drunk Drivers – Call 911.

**NOTICE TO SUNSET/THURSTON-AREA HOMEOWNERS**
Proposed ADA Curb Ramp at Sunset & Thurston
The Bel-Air Association has been contacted by LA Metro to advise us of a proposal to install an ADA Curb Ramp (Handicap Accessible Sidewalk Corner Ramps) at the NW & NE corners of Sunset and Thurston which LA DOT feels is necessary to comply with Federal Regulations.
The installation of these ramps would require loss of Bel-Air entrance identity (including a rose garden) and wall shrubs/fence of an adjacent homeowner.
The Bel-Air Association has contacted CD5 Councilmember Paul Koretz and is strongly opposing the installations which are costly and add nothing since there are no sidewalks or pedestrian traffic.
The Association will keep our members advised as the situation develops.
