Lashing out at what he called 'lackluster management' of Hollywood's $922-million redevelopment plan, Los Angeles City Councilman Michael Woo on Friday proposed sweeping changes in the way the city's Community Redevelopment Agency handles the project and vowed to increase the voice of residents and small merchants in Hollywood planning decisions.

To think that we can take away those 22 community voices and just put out a 1-800 number and have people be able to navigate this massive institution is just not realistic.

Wong will finish out the term of Yui Hay Lee, while Muhammad will replace Michael Colbruno, the board's current president and member for 12 years.
