EXPO's AT-GRADE CROSSINGS

[Darryl Rehr]

 

There's a e-mail campaign in progress to ask the California Public Utilities Commission to hold off approving EXPO's at-grade crossings (Overland, Westwood, Military, Sepulveda) during its meeting on Nov. 10.

 

EXPO is requesting approval while the appeal of residents' lawsuit against them is still pending. CPUC should keep out of it until the lawsuit is resolved. Approval would slant the lawsuit in EXPO's favor, disapproval would slant it in the plaintiff's favor. EXPO meets CPUC, however, is one bureaucracy meeting another bureaucracy, so guess which is the likely outcome.
