From this geographic area

What Citrus Square said, verbatim.

23 consented testimonials from this geographic area.

The amenity and quality of the historic apartment streets; the abundant greeness of the streets.
Citrus Square
Illegal bad unsafe driving, sidewalks are horrible, trash issues.
Citrus Square
Beautiful apartments, lovely neighborhood, convenience of businesses nearby
Citrus Square
I have attended two GWNC meetings, one was the GWNC gemeral meeting (in 2011) and the other was a GWNC Land Use meeting (in 2025). I found both of these meetings to be poorly run, so much so that I was tempted to leave each meeting early. I had attended thinking I might want to become more involved with the GWNC given my great experiences serving in such activities before moving to LA.

Quality of life. Suburban vibe in an urban region.
Citrus Square
Replanting the trees around the Third Street Elementary School campus and blocking the conversion of the home at 200 South Orange Drive into a house of worship. It doesn't seem like a good idea to allow someone to break the law, ask forgiveness, and then be rewarded with a CUP. In fact, if anything, it seems that if the CUP goes through, you will have created a new and preferred way to get a CUP. "Just do whatever you want. Get in trouble after it is done. Get a CUP to make it all legal."

Safety from home burglaries and speeding/stop sign running on Citrus between Beverly and 3rd

The constant burglaries. You have to solve this. Neighborhood watches and cameras do nothing.
