This week is LA My311 Week!
The City of Los Angeles’ MyLA311 system serves as a vital conduit for linking residents and businesses to City services and information. Currently, MyLA311 provides access to 68 service request types across 11 City departments, addressing commonly requested services such as bulky item pickup, graffiti removal, and illegal dumping.
City Council offices have been invited to engage in a friendly challenge aimed at generating the highest percentage increase in service requests.
If there are service needs in your neighborhood, now is the perfect time to make a 311 request and help your Council District win this year’s MyLA311 challenge!
