Your written comments are encouraged but you do not have to comment on every Section. Pick the one that you know the best or that interests you the most. Following are ideas for your review:
Compare the Revised Section to the Original Section in the Draft EIR. To find the Original Draft EIR go to: http://planning.lacity.org/eir/VerdugoHillGolfCourse/DEIR/DEIR%20Verdugo%20Hills%20Golf%20Course.html
Why are the above sections being recirculated? Are they showing more impacts than originally? Are they showing fewer impacts? Either way, do you agree with the revised Section?
Bring up all possible objections and concerns that you have about the Revised Sections of the EIR. Your comments should be as detailed as possible and include facts and information upon which they are based.
Include who you are, your professional and community affiliations too.
If you need assistance, ask at the upcoming LUC and STNC meetings.
