River LA Details
River LA is a non-profit corporation charged with promoting responsible development, redevelopment, and revitalization of properties along the LA River corridor in accordance with the Los Angeles River Revitalization Master Plan. This includes parks, open space, mixed-use buildings, retail opportunities, housing, and business space. The RRC was formed in December 2009 as the outgrowth of the recommendation from Los Angeles River Revitalization Master Plan. In 2009 and 2010, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, Councilman Ed Reyes and Council President Eric Garcetti appointed the initial board of directors, who are all volunteers. Start-up funding for the organization came from CRA-LA. Additional funding will come from a variety of city, state, federal, foundation and private sources. The RRC does not have any land-use authority or powers to implement eminent domain proceedings. Instead, it is working cooperatively and transparently with public and private stakeholders to carry out its mission. Its efforts are concentrated in the area covered by the Los Angeles River Implementation Overlay district (LA-RIO), and other similar districts, if subsequently established. Our mission is to ensure the 51-mile Los Angeles River integrates design and infrastructure that brings people and nature together. We champion river-oriented policy and sustainable public spaces, while creating innovative models for community benefit and participation.
