Invitation From Council President
Some years ago the City of Los Angeles embarked on a new and exciting experiment in bringing local government even closer to the people – Neighborhood Councils representing the many diverse and vast neighborhoods and communities of this great City of the Angels.
So democracy was re-invented once again.
Our local community – the Greater Valley Glen community represents over 45,000 people – not counting those Stakeholders who work or participate in organizations or attend school or churches in the Greater Valley Glen Community – a fair bit more than a neighborhood and much more like a small City
Thus, the slogan: YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD – OUR COMMUNITY.
The Greater Valley Glen Council constantly is interacting with City officials, departments, agencies and numerous other public officials and governmental bodies so as to achieve a safer, better and cleaner environment for our Stakeholders. From land use decisions (ie: variances and conditional use permits to policing and other first responder services to neighborhood watches) – WE HAVE OUR SAY – and our say is an effective voice on behalf of our Greater Valley Glen community.
Now we need to hear YOU – to give voice to your concerns.
Please participate…please be
involved…please let us hear your say…so that the GVGC can give voice to every voice in Greater Valley Glen.
The GVGC is here.
Now we need to hear from YOU!
