Neighborhood councils are necessary in LA despite backlash, criticism
Do we really need neighborhood councils?
Those words were on every month’s agenda when Jerry Brown was president of the Westwood Neighborhood Council.
Yes, every month. No, not Gov. Jerry Brown.
Brown was WWNC’s first president when the council was formed in 2010. He retired in 2016.
WWNC to pursue shared custody of Westwood in event of council vote loss
Members of the Westwood Neighborhood Council said at a meeting Wednesday night they want to share custody of Westwood Village if community members vote to create the North Westwood Neighborhood Council.
The council unanimously passed a motion to designate the Village a shared resource between the current council and the proposed North Westwood Neighborhood Council. Westwood Forward, a coalition of students, homeowners and business owners, submitted an application to form the new council in December, and voters can decide whether to approve the council’s formation on May 22.
