President’s Message: A Look at 2012
Ma rqu ez
Kn olls
Property Owners Association had a busy
and exciting 2012.
The following are
some
of
the
highlights from last
year.
E-Com Alerts
More than 500 residents and public
officials were kept abreast of issues
affecting our community.
Timely
updates via e-mail included, weekly
crime reports, crimes in progress,
prevention tips, monthly MKPOA
CCR Assistance
from Supervisor Yarolavsky’s office
and Councilman Bill Rosendahl.
In September we held our yearly block
party in the Marquez business district.
Over 350 adults and kids showed up
eating 250 quarter pound free ACS
hotdogs until they ran out and
consuming 400 bottles of water and soft
drinks. Alper’s Jazz band entertained
the crowd and Whirlie the
Clown delighted the children.
Throughout the year MKPOA
helped neighbors with concerns
about view obstructions
including trees, chimneys, air
conditioners, fences and
hedges.
Most cases were
resolved friendly and amicably
between the neighbors. We
will continue to help resolve
neighborhood issues.
DWP Distributing Station
2012 Awards Recipeints
Marquez Knolls resident Sam
Lagana received the 2012
Golden Sparkplug Award from
the Pacific Palisades
Community Council for his
efforts in getting the city to
properly install storm drains.
In February, MKPOA attended a
meeting with DWP officials and
Councilman Rosendahl’s officials. We
were told a distributing station was
being proposed in four locations (three
in Marquez Knolls). A public meeting
was then held in March at Marquez
Charter Elementary School. More than
200 residents turned out to voice their
objections to the sites. Several months
later, DWP, Councilman Rosendahl
and LAUSD Board Member Zimmer
appointed a 15-member task force to
evaluate and assess sites for the
western side of Pacific Palisades.
Three members from MKPOA were
selected.
Hotline: 310 454-7678
MKPOA vice president Haldis
Toppel received the prestigious
Pioneer Woman of the Year
award sponsored by the L.A.
Commission on the Status of Women.
She along with 18 other women were
honored for their exemplary leadership
and community pride.

LAPD: How They Caught the Bad Guys
By Haldis Toppel
burglarize the house but was
targeting a child living in the
home.
A combination of LAPD
adv is or ies ,
e - c om
notices, ACS Security
presence, and citizen
awareness have kept
crime down in Marquez
Knolls in 2012.
There is a lot more
to police activity in the
Palisades than m ost residents
realize. Senior Lead Officer Michael
Moore shared some details about successful crime prevention, recent highprofile arrests and some surprising investigative findings.
The Palisades is served not only by
the visible black and white patrol car,
but by additional undercover and other
resources that can be deployed quickly
in case of need.
August 15, 2012. A neighbor
called 911 when he saw an individual entering his friend's vacant house on Enchanted Way
and another person waiting in a
van in front of the house. Within
three minutes, the LAPD air support unit was hovering above the
scene. Alarmed by helicopter’s
presence, the two suspects tried
to flee the area. An LAPD unit
stopped the vehicle at the corner
of Sunset and El Medio and ordered the suspects out at gunpoint. Follow-up: the suspects
were serious career criminals
with a long list of suspected
residential burglaries. The
diligent neighbor, quick
response of the air support
unit and the LAPD units
probably prevented many
other burglaries.
August 11, 2012. An early morning
alarm went off in the 800 block of Alma
Real and a burglary arrest was made.
At least 15 police vehicles and the
canine unit responded quickly and
eventually subdued a struggling and
uncooperative suspect, which some bystanders felt was an overreaction by
police. Follow-up: the suspect was a
registered sex offender and
apparently did not intend to
November, 2012. A rash of car
break-ins had occurred at both
sides of Temescal Canyon and
along Sunset. The times of the
break-ins were random, but the
MO (modus operandi) was the
same. Similar break-ins occurred randomly at Rustic Canyon Park and other
west side parks where people left their
cars to go for walks or other recreational
activities. LAPD began observing Temescal Canyon and ultimately arresting
a couple in the act of a crime. Followup: LAPD recovered stolen goods
and was able to connect the suspects
to other car break-ins. The break-ins
abruptly ended.
Career criminals commit an estimated 90 percent of the crimes. When
police presence is focused and arrests
are made, it not only solves crime, but
prevents many others from being victimized.
Please send a brief note thanks to
LAPD Senior Lead Officer Michael
Moore 27995@lapd.lacity.org, and
LAPD Captain Evangelyn Nathan
23304@lapd.lacity.org.

suspicious, but not an emergency, go to

The Siting of a DWP Distributing Substation
Since mid-September, the DWP
Task Force has met every two
weeks to consider possible site(s)
for a new DWP distributing substation. The facility will not generate
power; rather it will act like a circuit
breaker panel that distributes power
to your home. Our assignment was
to provide community input and assess the proposed locations in the
western portion of Pacific Palisades,
before making any recommendations.
This is the first time in DWPs history that a community group has
been formed to assist in assessing
substation locations for community
impact. The 15-member task force
was selected by Councilmember
Rosendahl, DWP and LAUSD Board
Member Zimmer. The members represent the Pacific Palisades Community Council, Marquez Charter
Elementary School, Westside Waldorf School, Coalition to Keep
Marquez Charter Safe, Temescal
Canyon
Association,
Marquez
Knolls Property Owners Association

and Palisades’ residents.
For months, members have studied Power Systems, Geology and
Site Specifications (physical, geological, environmental conditions,
surrounding land uses, and existing
infrastructure connectivity) on each
of the 15 locations identified by DWP
and the community.
Each member carried out the task
of assessing the sites with the utmost seriousness and consideration
for the entire community by asking
the DWP staff tough questions, debating with one another and expressing concerns on behalf of residents.
After a long and arduous process, we were asked to independently place sites in three tiers (Tier 1:
Most Compatible, Tier 2: Less Compatible and Tier 3: Not Compatible),
the consensus among the task force
was nearly unanimous. (Site locations
and presentation materials are available
at, LAPD.com enter search words:
“Distributing Stations”).
The Task Force’s tiering recommendation(s) will be given to the
DWP General Manager who will finalize a project description and prepare an environmental document for
the DWP Board of Commissioners
for consideration and approval. Further review will then be made by the
LA City Council and Coastal Commission.
During the multi-year review and
permitting process, there will be
many opportunities for public comment. DWP has also invited the
Task Force members to assist in the
building’s design and landscaping to
assure the facility’s architecture is
compatible with its surroundings.
DWP states that in approximately
5-6 years there will be a more robust
power infrastructure in the Palisades
ensuring the safe and reliable delivery of electricity for the benefit of all
Palisadians.
Christy Dennis is a member of the DWP Task
Force.
Rea Report:
News from PPCC
Welcome to this issue of the Rea
Report. I am one of the members of the
LADWP Task Force that is deliberating
on which sites to recommend for siting
Distributing Station 104. I am not going
make much comment here as other
members will be reporting on our efforts
in this issue of the MKPOA newsletter. I would like to mention however,
that I have been maintaining a blog with
reports about our meetings. If you
would like to go over the history of the
Task Force, you can do so at
PPCCArea3.blogspot.com
In late January, the PPCC hosted a
forum to allow members of the community to share their comments and concerns regarding the tentatively recommended sites for DS-104. Local citizens
who live near the Bernheimer Garden
site, nearby Aderno Way and the two
sites off of Paseo Miramar showed up to
express their disapproval of those
choices. Selected comments were made
by DWP staff and I shared some of my
thoughts about the criteria for selecting
these sites.
In December, the PPCC held its annual Holiday Dinner Party. PPCC President Barbara Kohn presented the 2012
PPCC Community Service Award to
Marguerite Perkins Mautner who retired
from the PPCC after 20 years of continuous community service.
The PPCC meets every other Thursday in the Palisades Library, the community is welcome and encouraged to attend.
If you have an issue you would like
me to bring to the PPCC, please contact
me jarea@kw.com or (424) 354-0790.

Palisades Community Council and an
