Greetings Angelenos!
Our Department is currently working to plan for the future of Los Angeles. With the support of the Mayor and City Council, we recently launched an effort to update all 35 Community Plans by 2024.
Your participation in this process is extremely important and I encourage you to learn more about how you can get involved. Our Community Plan teams will be out in several communities in the coming weeks and months, so please stay tuned for outreach dates and locations near you.
Together, we are Planning for LA.
