What is Being Proposed?
The Public Works Committee is recommending that the City Council designate the intersection at West Sunset Boulevard and Lemoyne Street as "Sandra Figueroa-Villa Square." The committee also recommends that the Department of Transportation install permanent ceremonial signs at this location to mark the designation.
Committee Action and Process

The committee held a public comment period before voting. The vote was 2-1 in favor (Hernandez and Hutt voted yes; Padilla was absent). The matter now moves forward to the full City Council for final consideration.
