Repairing fire damage at Encino Franklin Fields | College News
Infrastructure damage brought on by a fire suspected to have been set by a homeless particular person at Encino Franklin Fields in January has not been repaired and is still months away from being accomplished, according to an update from from Councilmember Imelda Padilla.
A tunnel broken beneath a parking space has created points with use of the fields and restricted parking despite a momentary pedestrian bridge constructed to let people journey to softball fields used by groups from Harvard-Westlake, Sherman Oaks Notre Dame and Louisville. The groups have resumed utilizing the fields.
Here’s the assertion offered to The Times and attributed to Padilla: “Since the fire our office has continued to lead coordination efforts with the Bureau of Engineering, the Mayor’s Office, and the CAO, to move this project forward as quickly as possible. With the design phase complete, we are now actively working to identify and secure the necessary funding to begin construction.
“Once funding is secured, construction is expected to begin within approximately two months, and we are working to ensure the project is funded and underway within the current fiscal year. We are in ongoing communication with Encino Franklin Fields stakeholders to ensure their needs are reflected throughout this process. Student athletes, families, and community members deserve safe, functional facilities, and we are committed to delivering a coordinated and timely solution.”
Harvard-Westlake athletic director Matt LaCour launched a assertion as nicely: “We are grateful to the Council Office, Encino Franklin Fields, and all stakeholders for their continued commitment to supporting our student-athletes and broader community. Their leadership and collaboration are critical in ensuring there is a clear path forward to restore these facilities.
“These fields are more than just a place to play — they are a vital resource for students, families, and community members. We appreciate the shared urgency to restore full access for everyone who depends on them.”
