The Los Angeles City Council has approved a plan designed to tackle the illegal dumping of trash and bulky items citywide, including shortening the time it takes to deploy cleanup teams.
– The Los Angeles City Council Tuesday unanimously approved a plan designed to tackle the illegal dumping of trash and bulky items citywide, including shortening the time it takes to deploy cleanup teams.
The motions call for the city to address illegal dumping within 48 hours of it being reported or identified. Two of the motions passed Tuesday specifically involve illegal dumping. The remaining two are aimed at efficiently deploying Bureau of Sanitation teams that handle encampment cleanups and increasing the frequency of street sweeping in commercial and industrial areas.
In August, the L.A. City Council voted to reconvene a previously formed interdepartmental illegal dumping working group following a report that found illegal dumping of trash and hazardous items in the city’s public areas increased 450% between 2016 and 2020.
