As some know, looks like Beverly Glen is closed from Sunset to Nicada, information is scarce and fluid but make necessary plans to use Benedict Canyon if necessary, we will continue updating and have contacted the Councilman’s office who is contacting DWP, who is coordinating the work with a private contractor.

We are very upset about lack of coordinate with DWP and will communicate that effectively on behalf of all residents.  For now, coordinate as best as you can and make plans for afternoon drives.

Stay tuned, updated will be posted as we know.

As an update to the earlier post, according to the Council’s office, DWP estimates repair of the water main to be completed at 10:00pm.

As with all estimates, it is an estimate only, there is a chance of not water overnight, if so, please make alternative plans if you must have water overnight.  DWP is working diligently and our Councilman’s office is applying pressure and monitoring the situation.

There may be a chance of road closures after repair due to road safety so be aware.

We will post updates as they become available, as our Emergency Preparedness chair will tell you, we only have one way in and one way out so be prepared.

There’s been a water main break at No. Beverly Glen & Corfu Lane.

DWP is already working on this and Councilman Koretz’s office knows about it.  Do not drive south on the Glen if you can avoid it (if you are north of Corfu) and the same goes for North, if you live south of Corfu).  We will do our best to keep you updated on this problem.

In the last meeting of Bel Air Beverly Crest Neighborhood Council, our Senior Lead Officer informed us of a rise in construction site and home burglaries in the canyons.  Please read the following notices and refer to the five points of contact with LAPD if you see anything suspicious:

• West LAPD Five Points of Contact
• LAPD Crime Notice
• Burgerly Alert

Stay alert, please let ROBG know of any crimes so we can also follow up with LAPD and use the five points of contact!

ROBG has received some reports of a few mail thefts that have recently occurred in the Glen.  Please regularly check your mail daily and for those with common mailboxes, please make sure your box is locked at all times and regularly check those boxes as well.

We are inquiring with LAPD on this situation but is always up to us to do what we can to deter mail theft.  And in particular, if your receiving checks in the mail, call your bank immediately if not received in a timely manner.

Beverly Glen Residents:

There will be a protest at the Hotel Bel-Air on FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14th, likely starting at 4 pm, but possibly earlier.  Expect traffic on Sunset between Stone Canyon and Beverly Glen to be more difficult than usual during Friday rush hour.

Here’s the link to additional information from the Bel-Air Association.

Additionally, Beverly Glen will be completely closed between Ventura Blvd and Mulholland Blvd on Saturday, October 15th and Sunday, October 16th from 6 am to 6 pm for resurfacing.  Expect additional delays around Mulholland as people will have to be diverted to the east and west.

Thanks for your patience with these issues.  We will bring you additional information as soon as we access it.
