Annenberg Foundation Proposes a Visitor’s Center in the Ballona Wetlands
May 13, 2013 at 5:30 am

The Annenberg Foundation has plans to try to help restore the Ballona Wetlands by creating a Visitor’s Center.
The foundation hopes to partner with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the State Coastal Conservancy and the Santa Monica Bay Restoration Commission on the project which would be in a 30-acre zone known as Area C South.
“We would be part of the overall restoration process,” said Geoff Maleman, a spokesperson for the Annenberg Foundation.
Maleman said the area would be bordered south by Culver Boulevard, east by Lincoln Boulevard and west of the 90 Freeway. The visitors’ center would consist of indoor and outdoor exhibits. The project would also include restoring the area around where the center would be built, according to Maleman.
“We would reintroduce native species and remove all non-native plants,” Maleman said. “That would foster a new healthy, fluorishing habitat.”
Some environmental advocates are opposed to the project. The Venice Neighborhood Council has also, in the past, expressed disapproval with restoration plans in the area.
The Annenberg Foundation would commit at least $50 million to fund the project, according to the Annenberg Foundation’s website.
The proposal must go through an environmental impact report which should be drafted by late summer, Maleman said.
