The City of LA Wants to Shut You Out of the Planning Process Details PLANNING HIJACKS-On March 30, the Department of City Planning released a memo signed by the Director of Planning, Vince Bertoni. The purpose of the memo was to give “guidance” on the way the Mulholland Scenic Parkway Specific Plan (MSPSP) would be implemented from now on. For many years, projects proposed for the hills below Mulholland Drive needed to be reviewed by the Mulholland Design Review Board. Bertoni has decided to change that. In his memo the Director asserts that the purpose of the MSPSP is to preserve views from Mulholland Drive, so from now on projects that won’t be seen from Mulholland will no longer come before the Board.
