- Community Impact Statement to Strengthen Neighborhood Councils by Revision of City Charter Article IX (7/15/2024) - "Woodland Hills _ Warner Center NC Board supports a proposal for Los Angeles City Charter Article IX Revision to Empower Neighborhood Councils The Woodland Hills Issues and Policies (WHIP) Committee drafted critical revisions to Article IX of the Los Angeles City Charter to strengthen Neighborhood Councils. The proposal addresses funding, authority, support, elections, and collaboration challenges Neighborhood Councils face. Key updates include establishing an Independent Funding Commission, enhancing Neighborhood Council influence in city decisions, expanding DONE's support role, streamlining elections, and fostering better cooperation with city officials. As the LA City Council considers charter updates, this timely proposal seeks to revitalize grassroots democracy in Los Angeles. Stakeholders are invited to review and provide feedback on these important changes to improve community engagement in local governance."
