LOS ANGELES : Warner Ridge Project Approved by City Council
- Share via
After seven years of feuding, the City Council on Wednesday approved construction of a large office tower-condominium project on Warner Ridge in Woodland Hills.
The council voted 10 to 3 to approve the project and a contract guaranteeing that for the next 10 years it would not seek to restrict use of the property.
Still, loose ends remain. After nearly a dozen separate votes Wednesday, the council still must vote again on a zone change ordinance for the project. If the ordinance is approved, the council will have set the stage for construction of four mid-rise office towers--totaling 690,000 square feet--and 125 condominiums on the 21.5-acre site.
The city agreed in a court-approved settlement earlier this year to approve a large-scale Warner Ridge project after it lost several key court battles in a lawsuit brought by the developer, Warner Ridge Associates.
