While Neighborhood Council board members are volunteers, they are public officials elected by the members of their community. Most board members serve two-year terms; a few Neighborhood Councils have four-year terms.
WHO CAN RUN OR VOTE?
Unlike other city, state, or federal elections, voting and being a candidate in Neighborhood Council (NC) elections is open to more than just the residents of a community. Participation is open to those who live, work, or own property or a business within an NC’s boundaries, as well as to “community interest stakeholders,” such as church members, local students (or parents of students), or members of local service organizations.
Candidates and voters need not be US citizens or legal residents to qualify. Participation is also open to the formerly incarcerated. The minimum age to vote is 16; the minimum age to run for most NC seats is 18, except for Youth Seat candidates, who may be between the ages of 14-17.
L.A. Controller Ron Galperin’s Community Engagement team is conducting a survey about City-collected fines and fees. These include parking tickets, minor traffic citations, library fines, animal service fees, and more. Our office is doing an analysis of these fines and fees, and, as part of our work, we are seeking input from Angelenos about their experiences.
By collecting responses from a broad swath of Angelenos, we can enrich our understanding of the impact of City-collected fines and fees on Angelenos.
