Welcome to We ARE Marina del Rey
We ARE Marina del Rey is a group of volunteer citizens dedicated to preserving the unique recreational and residential lifestyle of Marina del Rey, a vibrant community of residents, boaters, tourists, County residents and native birdlife.
Los Angeles County's redevelopment plans for the Marina convert our public land mandated for public recreation and hand it over to private developers for luxury projects that will increase traffic, impact our environmental, raise our rent or displace residents, disrupt small craft recreational boating, and diminish public recreational opportunities and access to coastal resources.
Our activities include public outreach and education, advocating for compliance with our LCP, and potential legal actions.
Next Meeting: Community Meeting/County presenation of proposed changes to Marina land uses and development laws (LCP Amendment). Burton Chase Park Sat. Aug 21, 9am-12pm and Tues Aug 24, 6pm-9pm.
