We want your thoughts. Over the past several months, Neighborhood Council members have received an increasing number of complaints about excessive speeding, road takeovers, vehicle noise and pedestrian safety. While the NC has previously worked with Councilmember Blumenfield’s office, the LA Department of Transportation and LAPD to implement solutions that address specific community complaints, we want to hear more from our stakeholders about their experiences and ideas related to making LA roads as safe as possible. A reminder that the Neighborhood Council is an advisory body and does not write or enforce laws. We are looking for community input to share with city officials.
