The Los Angeles City Council voted 12-1 Wednesday to require Home Depot to take additional measures to ensure that the environmental impact of its proposed store on Foothill Boulevard in Sunland-Tujunga will be insignificant. Performing the additional measures could delay the heavily contested project by up to two years. The council’s decision comes after area residents mobilized early this year to have Home Depot’s over-the-counter permit revoked. The North Valley Area Planning Commission ultimately restored the permit, however. Council member Wendy Greuel led the movement to require Home Depot take more extensive environmental measures. “Thank you to Councilmember Wendy Greuel for her fire and dedication regarding this issue on behalf of our community,” Cindy Cleghorn, Sunland-Tujunga Neighborhood Council chairwoman, said in a statement.
