This looks to be a very interesting meeting, given all the things pro and con that have been said over the past few months about the need to formally implement the Zyscovich Plan, as was noted more than a few times at the eight-hour Hollywood City Commission meeting in early April on the fate of the SE corner of Young Circle, pictured above.Meanwhile, two weeks from now...

Downtown Hollywood plans up for discussion
June 2, 2008
Hollywood commissioners this month will once again tackle downtown development issues -- debating whether to adopt height limits and new architectural guidelines for a key portion of downtown.
But while many of Hollywood's new commissioners campaigned on promises to kick-start the city's struggling downtown and reform its besieged community redevelopment agencies, most efforts have stalled.
In May, commissioners rejected a plan to have the directors of Hollywood's downtown and beach CRAs report to City Manager Cameron Benson.
Mayor Peter Bober, Vice Mayor Dick Blattner and Commissioner Heidi O'Sheehan voted in favor of the proposal, saying it would increase financial oversight.
But others said Benson already has enough work and didn't think the change would help.
Next, commissioners will discuss downtown redevelopment guidelines proposed five years ago for Young Circle by architect Bernard Zyscovich.
The workshop is at 3 p.m. June 17 at Hollywood City Hall, 2600 Hollywood Blvd.
