Supervisor Mitchell’s Statement on the Marina Central Park

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Los Angeles County Supervisor Holly J. Mitchell provided the following statement on the Marina Central Park idea that has been proposed by the non-profit Streets for All.

“The potential implications of the Marina Central Park require a comprehensive feasibility study that takes into account the feedback of residents who live near the Marina Freeway and those that use the freeway. I do not support blindly agreeing to a disruptive change such as closing the freeway without a detailed assessment with full community input including those Angelenos that regularly use the freeway. I want to be clear that there are currently no immediate plans to alter the Marina Freeway and a feasibility study as of yet has not been funded.”
