A proposal to build a bathroom facility in Runyon Canyon for one million dollars is catching heat from residents. Locals question whether the restroom is necessary, especially considering the high cost of building it. Some say it will attract crime and more homeless people seeking shelter in the restrooms. Others say the trail isn’t long enough to justify a restroom. Currently, portable toilets are located near the entrance to the park area. The proposed facility would be situated near the trailhead. Runyon Canyon attracts some two million visitors per year.
