What We Do

We are Central Hollywood's voice in city politics. CHNC bridges local concerns to action in the Los Angeles City Council.

Living in a city of over three million people, neighborhood councils are way to express the will of smaller communities. It's a way for our city government to ask our opinion on critical matters. And CHNC helps us organize locally so we can act on our own.

The Central Hollywood Community Council tackles many kinds of projects and problems. Here's just a few examples:

  • If a real estate developer wants to build a big new shopping mall on your block, CHNC gets early notification from the city. We have the opportunity to review the plans and offer input.
  • De Longpre Park has been taken over by an unsavory crowd. CHNC is working with LAPD and the Los Angeles Parks Department to clean it up and make it safe.
  • We're tired of seeing couches strewn about our streets. CHNC has partnered with the Department of Sanitation in an innovative program where we report bulky item locations directly to the city for pickup.
  • Graffiti draws drug dealers and gangs. We wanted it gone and organized a Zero Tolerance program where graffiti gets painted over within two days.

In short, CHNC has a hand in issues that impact where we live.
