> Dear VANC Friends,
>
> 15 YEARS! We're counting the days until our 15th ANNIVERSARY MIXER on
> March 8 at CBS Studios, starting at 6:00 p.m. This is a special celebration and
> we hope ALL 34 Neighborhood Councils in the Valley attend. Let's have 100%
> turnout! You certainly want YOUR council to take part in the ROLL CALL of
> Neighborhood Councils. Bring your NC banner to display. And stand up and cheer
> when we call your name! Every year we have a "celebrity" elected official
> helping to call the ROLL. See who it is this year!
>
> The MIXER is a great opportunity to meet our Elected Officials and City
> Department heads. "Working the room" is encouraged!
>
> SECURITY: You must make a reservation, the **DEADLINE is MARCH 2.**
>
> Your name must be on the attendance list at the Gate on Radford Avenue.
> Security is very tight at the studio. Bring a photo ID with you. (See the
> attached flyer and RSVP form).
>
> " BEST OF..." AWARDS: DEADLINE to submit nominations is FEBRUARY 23.
> Nominate a Neighborhood Council, or a Board member, for their extraordinary
> contribution to the community. (Send to <VANC@empowerLA.org>)
>
> DOOR PRIZES: Take part in our Door Prizes part of the evening. We need
> gift certificates from restaurants, movies, sporting events, stores, as well as
> actual items such as bottles of wine, gift baskets, etc. Your contribution will
> be most appreciated and you will be thanked publicly.
>
> NOTES from February 8 VANC Meeting:
> SPECIAL ELECTION April 3 for AD 39 (NE Valley) and AD 45 (West Valley). Last
> week's meeting began with introductions from the candidates running in the
> Special Election to fill the vacancies. The candidates were well-spoken and
> interesting, with a variety of backgrounds and different personalities. You will
> be able to meet them at the March 8 MIXER.
>
> LAND USE and PLANNING Q &amp; A: Many thanks to our Guest Speakers, Ira
> Handelman, Land Use Consultant, and Dave Rand, Land Use Attorney, who provided a
> very lively and informative discussion answering the questions left over from
> our November "Crisis in Housing" panel . Both speakers have a wealth of
> information to share and they were a great team. Most importantly, they "tell it
> like it is"!
>
> Neighborhood Council FUNDING: Leyla Campos Office of the City Clerk
> brought us up to date on the newly released "NC Funding Program Policies and
> Guidelines"
>
> I hope to see you all on March 8!
>
> Best,
>
> Jill Banks Barad
> Founder and Chair VANC
