RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY
Marianne Perls
Joins Bill Rosendahl at the Podium
“This
project was brought to reality by many
dedicated people and was a dream that began
more than 23 years ago. It started on
Councilman Braude’s watch, and was designed,
negotiated, renegotiated, and redesigned
with numerous meetings during Cindy Miscikowski’s
service as Councilwoman. But it is Bill
Rosendahl, who is a tireless, problem
solving, can do, find-a-way Councilman who
made this project a reality.
This
was a project of incredible teamwork.
Thanks to everyone’s cooperation, compromise
and hard work this is a win/win project.
Instead of concrete sidewalks we got
decomposed granite walkways for the safety
of our horses.

|
Instead of plastic
city bus benches with all the
advertisements, we were allowed to reinstall
our redwood benches. We were even
allowed to design the entrance to our
wonderful canyon and the City installed it
For Mandeville Canyon and our homeowners
this is a dream come true 23 years later."

HOLIDAY LIGHTS ARE
LIT – A COMMUNITY EFFORT
The Holiday Lights
Program was officially lit on November 13th.
Most of the kinks have been ironed out and
the additional split rail fences installed
over the past year are now brightly lit with
twinkling lights.
Many volunteers work
to make this a successful project for the
homeowners and our visitors to enjoy.
If you’d like to make a donation to this
community-funded program please send a check
to:
MCA 1754 Mandeville
Canyon Road Los Angeles, CA 90049
We’ll add it to the
kitty to add more lights than ever. Thank you!

SLOW DOWN GETTING
OUT OF THE CANYON:
|
All of us
are busy, but not at the expense of hurting
ourselves or others. Please respect our
laws: STOP at
the STOP SIGNS.
Be courteous to pedestrians or neighbors
trying to pull out of their driveways.
Follow the GOLDEN RULE: Do Unto Others As
You Would Have Them Do Unto You. You’ll feel
better!

REVERSE DIRECTORY
9-1-1 New City System for Emergencies
The city's reverse 911 program
enables the Fire Department to notify us by
phone, e-mail, or both, of emergencies, or
red flag days. This system was used in San
Diego County during their fires, and many
citizens said it was an "effective way to
issue evacuation orders." In order to
receive an automatic reverse 911 call, or
e-mail on red flag days, you can sign up at
www.lafd.org/redflag
We hope you find this information useful!

CRIME REPORT
Two incidents during the past month
illustrate the positive impact of homeowners
being on the alert. On Sunday, November 18th
an unidentified male was seen entering the
rear yard of a home under construction. A
neighbor observed this and promptly placed a
call to the homeowner who lives off-site. He
returned quickly to the property and took
down the license plate number of the
intruder and reported it to police who made
an arrest. An investigation is under way.
A biker was assaulted by a vehicle traveling
up Lower Westside Road on November 2nd. This
hit and run was also witnessed by another
bicyclist and their detailed report of the
automobile was circulated throughout the
Canyon. A homeowner spotted a
matching |
 |
|
vehicle at the end of a cul-de-sac. The
biker subsequently verified this to be a
similar vehicle and a police investigation
is underway. |

THE FACE OF MANDEVILLE: This is a new
segment to our Newsletter and will feature a different resident each edition.
Elaine and Leo Klein have been
residents of Mandeville Canyon
since 1963 when they built their
lovely home on Westridge Road.
They have raised a daughter in
the neighborhood and love the
community. Their view is a good
reason why; they enjoy a view
from the Santa Monica Mountains
to downtown Los Angeles, and
over to the spectacular
coastline of the Santa Monica
Bay. The Kleins are interested
in the arts and have established
an endowed scholarship at the
UCLA School of the Arts and
Architecture. Say “Hello” to your neighbors,
the Kleins.
If
you want to volunteer for this feature, let
us know:
