Public Form #3 will be taking place next Saturday, September 29, 2007 at 10 am
at Angels Gate Cultural Center Bldg. H, 3601 S. Gaffey St., San Pedro, CA. Details of the meeting have not been announced as of Sunday, September 23.
Would you like to see a dog park there? Nine+ acres of baseball fields? Or a theatre and restaurant? An expanded Korean theme garden? A music camp? These are some of the ideas that have been proposed by the public so far. Now is the time to voice your opinion of what you would like to see at Angels Gate before the planning is set in stone. You can find transcripts of the past public forums, infrastructure reports, topographical surveys, etc and get on the master planning mailing list at http://angelsgateart.org/planning/index.html
For more details call Angel Gate at 310-519-0936 (Tu–Fri 10am-5pm).
