May Federation Meeting

We encourage all members of the Monterey Hills community to attend our meeting on Tuesday, May 15th at 7:00 PM at the Marshall Villas recreation room.

Monterey Hills Bicycle Lanes

Did you see the new bicycle lanes that were painted this week?
The City of L.A. has been a bit busy on the "Hill" lately because a couple of weeks ago Via Colina was resurfaced. These unexpected, but welcomed improvements have increased the safety and appeal of our community.
Monterey Hills is located within the City and County of Los Angeles. It is bordered by South Pasadena to the north, El Sereno to the South, and Highland Park to the West. It is located east of the 110 freeway and is 15 minutes to Downtown Los Angeles or Old Town Pasadena. The Monterey Hills Federation is the organizational body formed to represent the interests of the Monterey Hills Community.

"The Hill", as it is affectionately called by its residents, is a serene hilltop community consisting of 20 condominium complexes, each governed by their respective Homeowners Associations (HOA). The Federation was formed as an alliance between these HOA's so that they may collaborate and work in the common interest of its residents. The Federation is responsible for organizing the Monterey Hills Jazz Festival in the Summer and a holiday mixer in the Winter.

Parcel "S" Update

 "Parcel S," so named by the original Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) alphabetic parcel map when Monterey Hills was being developed, is a greenbelt along the east side of Via Marisol, directly north of Fremont Villas, and south of TELACU. 
 The Monterey Hills Federation, based on overwhelming community consensus, is actively seeking the designation of Parcel "S" as open space, a "passive park." Board members have been conducting ongoing discussions with City officials, and with the CRA/LA, to develop a plan, and generally pushing the issue forward.
 

 

The Palmdale to Los Angeles Supplemental Alternatives Analysis will be presented to the California High-Speed Rail Authority Board on Thursday, May 3, 2012 in Fresno, CA.

The Board Meeting will be held on Thursday, May 3rd at 9:00 a.m. at the Fresno Convention Center, Exhibit Hall 3, 700 M Street in Fresno.
