Save Our Eagle Rock Hillside exists to ensure the character and quality of life in historic Eagle Rock by protecting the area’s last hillside open space from residential development. We endeavor to see this land protected into perpetuity for the benefit of neighbors, nearby residents and future generations in this area; as well as for the Live Oaks, Sumac, coyotes, hawks, and burrowing owls that reside within its wildlife corridor. This watershed and indigenous Tongva-Tataviam landscape should be preserved as a shared community resource that promotes public health, biodiversity and urban heat reduction in what is largely a high density, multi-cultural, and park- poor area. We are a coalition of committed community members working with elected officials and other stakeholders to bring about the purchase of this land for the public commons and ensure that it is not lost to overdevelopment.

Leap of Faith Partners, LLC (the developer) has applied for changes (APCE 2007-5295 ZC) to place 9 prefabricated, modular, multi-story, box-like units on this 4.3 acreage where only 2-4 homes should exist.  The environmental application is (ENV 2006-9508 MNC) with a TT Map 67938 - is to cut down 80+ year old PROTECTED Live Oak trees on this property.  As  you can see, this is a 16+ year-old application.   JUST SAY NO!  Help us save Los Angeles' green spaces for the next generation.  Please sign our petition!
