Let's keep pedaling forward!

Friends,

I wanted to share with you the some of the results of the efforts of my organization, the Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition, and the dynamic and dedicated cycling community - which many of you are a part of. Please become a member of LACBC and continue to help make LA a more sustainable, equitable, and livable city!

Please forward this email on to folks you know who bicycle and friends who would like to bicycle if they felt the streets were safer. We are working to make LA streets safe and inviting for people ages 8 to 80!

Los Angeles Grabs National Headlines, Help Continue this Momentum

In last week's e-newsletter, we celebrated what had been designated as Bike Week in Los County, and we shared Momentum Magazine's article highlighting Los Angeles and the strides that have been taken to make Los Angeles more bike-friendly over the past few years.

This weekend, we saw the national "newspaper of record" take notice of our bicycling scene in a New York Times article about the increasing acceptance of cyclists on our streets.

Bicycling Magazine then gave Los Angeles a quiet nod of approval by including LA in its annual list ofAmerica's Top 50 Bike-Friendly Cities at a respectable #32, citing a stat from our most recent bike count report as one of LA's bicycling claims to fame. (In case you're wondering how LA did last year, it didn't make the list).

In a city known for its car culture, we're pleased to see the rest of the country taking notice of this progress. It was just a few years ago that LA's most recent bike plan was from 1996, CicLAvia seemed like a distant dream, and you probably could count on one hand how many cyclists you saw in a day. This recent recognition of bicycling in Los Angeles is because of people like you that ride your bikes and and support a better, more bike-able Los Angeles.

Let's keep pedaling forward and building this momentum! Become an LACBC member or renew your membership so that we can continue working for you to make Los Angeles County a better place for you to ride. And if you happen to live in a city represented by one of our 10 local chapters, join that chapter at no extra cost.

Being nationally recognized is great and all, but we know there is still so much to be done to make Los Angeles County a truly welcoming place for people who ride bikes. Join us in making this possible!

And remember to live every week like it's Bike Week, Los Angeles!

Sonic Trace and the KCRW DnA Design Challenge

Sonic Trace and the KCRW DnA Design Challenge

Sonic Trace, a new media project and radio series, a direct result of KCRW’s Independent Producer Project, is bringing you stories that explore the three age-old questions about community and immigration — ¿Por qué te fuiste? ¿Por qué te quedaste? ¿Por qué regresaste? (Why did you leave? Why do you stay? Why do you go back?) And in case you don’t know KCRW, we’re a public radio station based in LA with a global audience and renowned news, talk and music programming.

Which begs the next question: Why YOU?

A large part of Sonic Trace is recording stories. But, in order to record stories, we need a Sound Booth. And that’s where you come in to play! In partnership with KCRW program DnA and Producer/Host Frances Anderton, Sonic Trace is launching a Sound Booth Design Challenge! We need your help spreading the word about our challenge. We’ve got a tight budget, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t looking to build something special. We’re challenging designers, architects, builders… visionaries to create an intimate, inviting and innovative sound booth.

The booth will be traveling all over Los Angeles — to churches, food fairs and schools. To rock, jazz and cumbia concerts. We will be at the park, at the coffee shop and hanging at the tamale hot spots. We’ll be setting up and closing shop alongside food trucks and observing public transportation from bus stops and corner shops. You get the idea? These places will be noisy and hectic. So we’ll need a space of intimacy, reflection and “border-less-ness” for broadcast quality story-telling. (Think Story Corps with a KCRW edge, an angelino accent and a tale that starts or ends in far-off land).

The deadline for entry submissions is June 8^th. More details on the design challenge can be found here!

STREETS FOR PEOPLE: Moving Forward

SPEAKERS:
Bill Roschen, FAIA - President, Planning Commission - City of Los Angeles
Margot Ocañas

Please join us in a lively discussion about the Streets For People initiative as we celebrate the success of their recent Sunset Triangle Plaza (generously designed byRios Clementi Hale Studios). Ideally, the S4P initiative will set a precedent and a template for how community groups citywide can identify and adopt underutilized street surfaces and repurpose them into public plazas and common spaces. On the 16th, we aim to:

• Share a presentation and lead a discussion about the Streets For Peopleinitiative.
• Discuss next steps for the pilot project and the program overall
• Identify what will be most helpful moving forward to inspire more people to get involved
• Identify what the AIA|LA Urban Design Committee and the AIA membership can do to propel the S4P initiative further
• Identify what resources needed to create the template that can be adopted by other community group

About Streets For People:

The mission of Streets For People (S4P) is to inexpensively repurpose underused portions of streets, changing them into vibrant public spaces, and turning streets for cars into streets for people.

There has been increased demand in Los Angeles for safer and more welcoming streets for residents to play, walk, run, bicycle and relax. At the same time, City agencies are trying to decrease rates of obesity, improve air quality, create alternative transportation choices, address lack of park space and improve the walkability and accessibility of neighborhoods in Los Angeles.

Streets for People offers a cost efficient and time expedient approach to creating public plazas out of underutilized portions of our streets. These demonstration plazas are designed to be temporary (with movable barriers and furniture and easily removable street paint) and dynamic spaces that can become destinations for people of all ages, backgrounds and physical abilities; where a resident can linger, patronizing businesses or engaging with members of their community.

Cities like New York and San Francisco have led the way in creating successful public spaces from underused portions of the street and Los Angeles, with it's wide and flat streets, myriad outdoor events and warm weather, is an ideal city to embrace public realm projects taking place around the country.
