Neighborhood Councils
City of LA Neighborhood Councils are an important part of this project because they have a great sense of Park Needs in their neighborhoods!
We have requested a short report from each of the 99 Neighborhood Councils that includes their priorities. Councils can choose to submit a report, which is requested no later than June 2, 2025. Each Neighborhood Council received an email request. If you cannot locate your neighborhood council’s email request, please let us know at LACityParksNeeds@
We are presenting to the LA Neighborhood Council Coalition at the April 4, 2025, standing meeting.
