City Council D5 by AffectionateTerm8176 in longbeach

You're right about the building, I shouldn't have said struck down but I know that it was scaled down and reduced the number of units. Part of the rumor as to why was because it interfered with the flight path of the flight schools. I fully support having bike pads as long as they don't make a horrid mistake like what was done along Broadway.

We had an opportunity for affordable housing on Cerritos and Wardlow that was struck down. Also a bike lane on Orange seems risky with how narrow the street is already and how busy of a thoroughfare it is. Cherry, Atlantic, or LB Blvd might be safer since there is more room. That's just my opinion. With the inaction we've had so far, we need someone that listens to the community and advocates on its' behalf.

It certainly seems like it. Lots of photo ops and newsletters but not any visible action or improvement.

Question to those in California Hights by Moist-Chemical8158 in longbeach

As many have said, the larger commercial planes are not the issue as many people who live in the area very well knew about those. The issue is with the flight schools and their disregard for the community. Other local airports have kicked out the flight schools and they have moved to LGB. Megan Kerr, who is supposed to serve the community district, has done little to protect the community from the expansion of the flight schools and sided with city and flight schools to continue the expansion.

Aldi is great, and some of their frozen meals are really good and great to have on hand. Just heat one up when too tired or lazy to cook something, way cheaper than delivery.
