Assistant Majority Leader Krekorian
to Hold Free Traffic and Speeding Forum
Safe Streets Forum will offer residents a chance to talk about traffic
safety

BURBANK – Assemblymember Paul Krekorian (D-Burbank) is set to host a
free forum to address safe streets on Sunday, Sep. 13 in Van Nuys. The
Safe Streets Workshop will give residents an update about Krekorian’s AB
766, the Safe Streets Bill, and what lies ahead for ensuring local
control over speed limits.

AB 766, legislation to give local municipalities greater control over
setting their own speed limits, was held in the Assembly Transportation
Committee in May after registered opposition from statewide groups
derailed support.

Despite that setback, Krekorian is pressing ahead with a public forum to
elicit suggestions for ways to make streets safer throughout the San
Fernando Valley and the next steps toward local control over speed
limits. The forum will include information from state officials and an
update from local law enforcement and other elected officials on street
safety.

Where: TBD
When: Sunday, Sep. 13, 2 to 4 p.m.
Note: Though parking is located in the surrounding lots and on the
street, the center is accessible via public transportation (Metro.net)
and there is ample bicycle parking. Light refreshments will be provided,
but a limited number of seats are available. To RSVP, please call
Krekorian’s District Office, (818) 558-3043 or email
Assemblymember.Krekorian@Assembly.ca.gov with "Safe Streets Workshop" in
the subject line.
