Mar Vista Community Council Seeks Input for Welcome Sign

Mar Vista Community Council Seeks Input for Welcome Sign

Mar Vista residents are invited to submit design proposals for a monument sign that will welcome visitors to Mar Vista.
A “Welcome to Mar Vista” sign, similar to those in Larchmont Village and Valley Village will be placed somewhere on Venice Boulevard.
The funds for this project come from a $100,000 grant that Councilman Bill Rosendahl secured for streetscape beautification. Part of the funds have already been used for projects such as redesigning two medians on either side of Grand Boulevard and to pressure-wash sidewalks from Beethoven Street to Berryman Avenue on both north and south sides.
Those wishing to give their input on sign design can stop by the Mar Vista Community Council booth at the farmers market in Mar Vista on this Saturday and next, or email info@marvista.org
