Re: Mayor’s State of the City Address, Five Neoghborhood Councils Highlighted. City Council Passes Office Space Ordinance.

MAYOR’S STATE OF THE CITY ADDRESS

The mayor singled out the Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council for its Passport to Reading project, the Hollywood United Neighborhood Council for its fundraising effort that bought equipment for the Fire Department, and the combined effort of the Eagle Rock, Historic Highland Park, and Glassell Park Neighborhood Councils for their “Santa in York Hills” project.

State of the City Address
by Mayor James Hahn

OFFICE SPACE ORDINANCE APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL

The City Council unanimously approved the city ordinance that streamlines the process through which Neighborhood Councils can lease or occupy office space. It now heads to the Mayor for signature. It will still take city departments between 6 months and a year to lease space, but time to seal the deal for Neighborhood Council will be cut down to 30 to 45 days.
