Mayor's Operation Neighborhood Blitz Press Conference
February 5th at 11:30 am at the 12400 block of Jolette Ave. in Granada Hills.  

The Mayor first launched this program in Sherman Oaks during the month of July.  The Blitz has now covered the entire city, 99 neighborhood councils and is starting round two in our communities.

Background:
Mayor Eric Garcetti and the Bureau of Street Services is empowering local communities to survey their streets and prioritize the small asphalt repairs (SAR) that make a big difference in the quality of life.

The Bureau is partnering local Neighborhood Councils to act as the Bureau’s eyes and ears, or as the Bureau puts it, BSS Honorary Inspectors.  The effort will dispatch a city pothole repair truck to every neighborhood in the city twice over the next year.

“I’m working to make sure the city responds to pothole repairs in about 48 hours, but I want to do more than react to your calls,” said Mayor Garcetti.  “Government should actively go out to our neighborhoods and work with residents first hand to fix the most pressing problems.  The best way to fix problems in our neighborhoods isn’t from an office in City Hall. It’s on the ground in our neighborhoods.”
