We have officially gathered results from our Electric Vehicle Charging Survey:

Almost a third of Park La Brea residents who responded to our Electric Vehicle Charging Survey already have EVs, and 60% of those who don't own EVs have said it’s possible or probable that they will within the next 5 years.

Current owners who responded were unanimous in their preference to charge at Park La Brea, and two-thirds of non-owners who responded say they’d probably or possibly get an EV if charging were available here.

A resounding majority – 88% – of all respondents say that charging availability and convenience will affect their next decision about where to live.

Scroll down to view the pie charts below that visualize responses to each of the six questions. 

Five questions. That's all it takes. For you to raise your voice for your favorite City Council candidate (Park La Brea is in Council District 5) to help PLBRA choose a candidate to endorse.
Don't know who to choose? Watch the video below from PLBRA's Candidate Forum on May 15th, which was attended by all four candidates. Then take the survey.
Please note that we are requiring names, email addresses and unit numbers, as this as an official advisory vote open to PLB residents only. We will not be keeping or using that data - its for verification purposes only.
And don't forget: The primary election is June 7th. You should have already received a ballot in the mail. You can vote in person, by mail, or by depositing your ballot in the any official drop box - the nearest one is at the Fairfax branch of the LA Library.

If you live in a PLB Tower, you may have noticed that both front and back doors are now regularly
closed. That’s in preparation for the security improvements that are coming over the next 90
to 120 days.Read on for details - but the TL:DR version of the story is this: We’ve been heard, and in response, PLB management is making changes across the property.

First, cameras are being installed on all external gate, so we cantrack who’s entering and leaving the property.

Second, gate personnel are returning to requiring vehicles entering the property to indicate why they are here. PLB is also updating the parking management system, so we’ll have news on what
to expect regarding processes for admitting visitors in the near future.

Third, major security improvements are being made in the Tower lobbies. That includes the
installation of a security system that will require key fobs for entry. The system will be tied to a
smartphone app that will allow you to “buzz” in guests when they come to visit.

Security cameras are also being installed in the Tower lobbies to help reduce the incidence of
items being dumped in the lobbies, package theft, and other shenanigans. So, if you’re one of
those folks who likes to prop open lobby doors, smoke in front of the doors, or leave your trash in
the lobby - smile! - you’ll be caught on camera.

PLB management requests that residents who have issues with electronic security (disability, lack of smartphone, religious restrictions), or who have questions direct their inquiries towards Aryn Thomez through her assistant, Kay Wright at kay.wright@primegrp.com, with a cc: to PLBRA at parklabreaRA@gmail.com. 

Looking forward to a more secure neighborhood for us all!  #CommunityStrong
