City Council to Hold Special Closed Door Meeting on Monday

The City Council will hold a special meeting at 4 p.m. to consider one potential litigation item and real estate negotiations involving a major development site on North Lake Avenue, where Kaiser Permanente was previously located.

City Manager Miguel Márquez is listed as the agency negotiator for the talks, which will focus on the price and terms of payment.

Negotiating parties include Bridge Housing, City Ventures, Community Builders Group (CBG), Cypress Equity Investments (CEI), Fidelis Advisors, Holos Communities, Heritage Housing Partners, LA Family Housing, Mercy Housing, The Olson Company, Urban Coalition, USA Properties, and West Hollywood Community Housing Corporation.

A community meeting held March 27 at Lake Avenue Church drew approximately 150 residents who shared a strong consensus on the need for diverse housing options — including units for low-income families, seniors, and the local workforce — alongside supportive services and public amenities.

Public comment will be limited to items listed on the special meeting agenda. The meeting will adjourn following the closed session discussions.

The meeting will be held before a joint meeting with the Finance Committee.
