The Atwater Village Neighborhood Council (AVNC) will vote on whether to approve another $5,000 funding request by the Independent Shakespeare Company (ISC) at their March 8th board meeting.
The ISC is a theater group specializing in classical plays and is housed at the Atwater Crossing complex at 3191 Casitas Ave in Atwater Village.

Contrary to Brown Act requirements the agenda for the March 8th meeting only provides a vague description of ISC’s funding request. As such it is not presently known how ISC would use said funds if approved. However, in April 2011 the AVNC Board approved an earlier $5,000 funding request. The ISC reportedly used those funds to upgrade their theatre stage with steel deck platforms instead of the wooden platform used at the time.
It is uncertain how Atwater Village benefited by spending taxpayer funds to structurally improve what seems to be private property. It is even less clear how Atwater Village would benefit from a new funding request that has received little or no public vetting.
