Westside councilman Bill Rosendahl is pushing for a $2 hike in fees at public parking lots at LAX to fund a Green Line extension to the airport, reports the LA Times. Rosendahl's motion also asks officials to develop a plan to extend the rail line to a parking lot just north of LAX. Bonds would pay for the extension and the parking fees would pay the bond. Apropos to this, the newspaper's Bottleneck Blog quotes a local resident as saying, "I still can't fathom the political hell we have to go through just to get a 2-mile rail line extension built to the airport in this town."
