ECP Acquisitions, LLC ("ECP") is the owner of eight vacant lots totaling approximately 10.3 acres on Tortuoso Way, just opposite the entrance to the Bel-Air Hotel.

ECP is seeking a variance from the City of Los Angeles Hillside Ordinance to permit construction of "41 retaining walls ranging in height from 10 to 50 feet" and totaling "5,048 linear feet" on lots which it proposes to develop "simultaneously with retaining walls that cross individual lot lines."

In its Zone Variance Application, ECP concedes that "the number and height of the walls" required to develop the site in accordance with its plans would "exceed the limits allowed by the Hillside Ordinance," which currently permits only 2 retaining walls of 10 feet in height on each of the eight lots.

Whereas the undersigned are gravely concerned about the effect that the proposed variance would have on the character of the community, the views of nearby residents, and the area's environment, geology and topography, we hereby declare our adamant opposition to EPC's Zone Variance Application and to the development and construction plans contemplated thereby.
