An Online Petition Draft is in the works; rough draft is standing by.

I have found this site:

I didn't see the petition on the site - could you post the particular page?

On the petition, are you seeking to have Trader Vic's incorporated into the new hotel? (Do you mind posting your initial, incomplete, early, etc. draft?)

The residents probably want a small scale development which does not necessarily help Trader Vics, other than to potentially delaty development.

One of the issues may be any development right on the corner, which strongly suggests that Trader Vics would have to be torn down.

I wonder if the development could be southwest along Santa Monica (and not at all along Wilshire) in order to preserve TV.

I'm thinking that at the end of the day, there will be some development, even if it is a low-rise hotel, like the Penninsula, or condos on the same size.

Just like the Derby, I wonder if we can't get the owner to incorporate TV into the new development.
There seems to be more than enough acreage to go around.

Indeed, with all of the talk about an "urban garden," I wonder if the urban garden at the point of SaMo & Wilshire couldn't be maintained?
