Update: The Beverly Hills City Council sat for another marathon meeting about the One Beverly Hills project on May 27. The meeting picked up with an apology from Oasis West Realty CEO Beny Alagem, one of the project’s developers, who accepted responsibility for a letter sent by his attorney that pressured two residents to withdraw a public comment critical of him. The move came to light through Planning Commission Chair Peter Ostroff, who detailed the communication in a comment to the City Council.
The Council then turned to the project’s draft development agreement.
