Message from the President:
Our Board meeting on September 11, 2025, featured a presentation by BOE on City infrastructure projects involving bulkheads and retaining walls on streets in Areas One and Three, and an update by the Friends of the Palisades Library on plans for a temporary facility at the Recreation Center (tennis courts). See a recording of these presentations HERE.
The PPCC board approved two recommended grants from donations received by PPCC to the following: 1) the Palisades Forestry Committee, and 2) the Crayon Collection. We also learned from the Rebuild Committee that NORC-PPCC survey letters have been distributed to residents in a first phase; additional survey letters will be sent in a next phase in the coming weeks.
Additionally, we had the 1st Distribution of additional proposed Bylaws amendments, including to add the new Malibu-Palisades Chamber of Commerce as a PPCC organizational member. See the Bylaws Committee Report and redline and clean versions of the proposed amendments above.
Our next meeting on September 25th will feature a presentation by the new Palisades Long Term Recovery Group and an update by the Palisades Recovery Coalition. We’ll also learn more about the Citizen of the Year nominations and December event (to be held at Spruzzo restaurant on December 11!), we’ll have a vote on the Bylaws Amendments; and the Grants Committee will make additional recommendations for Board approval of grants.
See you at the PPCC meetings!
Palisades Strong!
Sue Kohl
President
