Sorry, it's taken so long to post this, but I've been traveling in Australia and it's been difficult to find both the time and the internet access. But I'm happy to report the West LA Planning Commission not only turned down the Ray Hotel's request for yet another continuance, but voted 5-0 to turn down the hotel as proposed. Essentially this means the project is dead unless the developers completely redesign the hotel and submits it as a new project.
I will have more details on the meeting later, but for now I can tell you the Commissioners decision hinged on two factors:
1) Councilman's Rosendahl support of the community and his letter to the Commissioners asking they deny another continuance and give the project an up or down vote.
2) YOU. Your letters to the Commission and your presence at the meeting made all the difference. Community opposition ran two-to-one against in the letters and was even more lopsided in the meeting. And since people were required to state their home address during public testimony, it was discovered a lot of people supporting the hotel didn't even live in Venice.
More details to come.

Its super sad for the residents and businesses around AK that this hotel doesnt seem to be happening.
I cant imagine a better project for this area.
It seems a small group of residents are always against change, and can never seem to see when change might actually be a good thing. Shame on you nay sayers.
