1. Continuance requested for MTA/RAD proposal at Oct 27 Planning Commission Meeting

At last nights GRVNC Board meeting Bill Christopher, RAD's representative, indicated that they would ask the Planning Commission 
to consider the issue at a later Planning Commission meeting, rather then the meeting tomorrow in Van Nuys.  I DO NOT have any 
official information to this effect, but I was asked to make the public aware that this is a possibility.  You should contact 
the planning administrator, Jon Foreman at (213) 978-1171, for more information.  The agenda still lists consideration of the RAD/MTA 
project as agenda item 9 here:

The Venice Paper also has a news item on this issue here:

Please use your own judgment when deciding whether or not to attend the planning meeting tomorrow.  As an agendized item you must be 
given a chance to speak on the topic whether or not the Commission's final decision is delayed.
