The American Planning Association Los Angeles Chapter has awarded the Planning Excellence in Implementation Award to the Temple City Council for the Rosemead Boulevard Beautification and Safety Enhancement Project. The project is partially funded by Metro’s 2011 Call for Projects.

The project, once completed, will include ADA compliant sidewalks, more trees, a separated bike lane and pedestrian amenities.

The 2013 APA LA Awards will be held on June 13 at the historic San Gabriel Mission Playhouse in the City of San Gabriel.
