Politician-turned-Port-Exec to Speak at Coastal Council Meeting Monday

The Coastal San Pedro Neighborhood Council meets on Aug. 17 at 6:30 p.m. at the Cabrillo Marina Community Building, Cabrillo Plaza, Berth 28. The agenda includes a waterfront redevelopment update by former state assemblyman Wally Knox, who is temporarily serving as a Port of Los Angeles executive. Knox was named to the newly-created post of deputy executive director for external affairs this spring, but, citing financial concerns, the City Council voted not to confirm the permanent position.
