McOsker Policy Update
This week, in the Trade, Travel and Tourism Committee, LA City Council continued its efforts to usher in the shut down of the Rancho LPG storage facility in San Pedro, a site councilmember Tim McOsker posited poses unacceptable risks to the community.
“Despite Fire Department testimony that the facility complies with safety regulations, I remain deeply concerned about its age, proximity to homes and schools, and potential for catastrophic incidents,” said McOsker in his newsletter. “Built in 1973, the facility is simply incompatible with the surrounding residential and recreational uses.
McOsker’s goal is to explore every lawful avenue to close this facility and repurpose the land for safer, more compatible uses. The councilmember has introduced motions calling for a detailed cost and timeline study for winding down the Rancho LPG use.
