Act before June 8

Submit a public comment.

Your comment matters more when it is specific. Focus on public safety, evacuation routes, emergency access, traffic congestion, construction impacts, environmental review, and cumulative development in the half-mile corridor.

What to say

Make it specific.

  1. Say where you live or how you use the corridor.
  2. State that you support safe housing but oppose unsafe saturation.
  3. Mention Riverwalk's scale.
  4. Explain your evacuation or emergency response concern in plain language.
  5. Ask the City to require full public disclosure and safety review before approval.
  6. Ask the City to require a smaller, safer alternative.

Open a pre-filled email to the City, or copy the text and adapt it. Either way, your own words carry the most weight.

Sample comment

I am a Studio City resident and I support safe housing and responsible planning. I oppose the Riverwalk project as currently proposed because it would add 814 residential units, major commercial activity, and years of construction to a half-mile corridor already affected by congestion, limited evacuation routes, and fire-safety concerns. Before any approval, the City should require clear public findings on emergency access, evacuation capacity, cumulative corridor impacts, environmental rules, and fire safety. Studio City needs safe development, not rushed approvals. I ask the City to require a smaller, safer alternative.

More comments, more weight.
