Hosted by the North Hollywood Northeast Neighborhood Council (NHNENC) in partnership with EmpowerLA, LA Sanitation and Environment, Los Angeles Public Library, the Sun Valley Area Neighborhood Council, and NERI, the workshop helped kick off LA 311 Week with a focus on civic engagement and community action.
MLK Day is not just a day off. It is a national day on — a call to action rooted in service and solidarity. Through clean-up efforts, creative expression, and resource-sharing, North Hollywood residents demonstrated what it means to live Dr. King’s values locally. Thank you to every volunteer, partner, and neighbor who showed up with heart and purpose. Together, we continue building a cleaner, stronger, and more connected community.
Another great event! We had a large turnout, so we split into four directions and sent two groups to drive to their locations. We had 31 volunteer and got 71 bags off our streets. We’re looking forward to our next event, the Martin Luther King Jr. Cleanup, on Monday, January 19.
The City of Los Angeles is identifying recommendations to revise the City Charter, which governs the structure and operation of city government and serves as the City’s constitution. Residents are encouraged to share their input by completing the City Charter Survey
A major pothole at Vanowen Street and Denny Avenue had expanded across the entire right lane and became increasingly hazardous following recent heavy rain. After multiple neighbors reported the issue, the Neighborhood Council escalated it as an urgent public safety concern. Thanks to the fast response from Council District 2 and the Board of Public Works, the issue was prioritized and repaired in under 24 hours.
Several attendees expressed interest in joining monthly community cleanups, many picked up LRO resource packets, and important community concerns were discussed, including the rapidly expanding pothole on Vanowen that the Council actively escalated and resolved.
Our NoHo community rolled up their sleeves November 8 and transformed this area one bag at a time. What started as trash-filled corners became clean and welcoming streets in just a couple of hours. Thank you to everyone who showed up and helped create real change. A special thank you to LA City Sanitation for their partnership and coordination in collecting all trash within 24 hours.
