Act to Support Los Angeles Parks!

Please take action to support Los Angeles Parks! At two meetings, the Los Angeles City Council will decide which Charter Reforms to put on the ballot for November. A key proposal, supported by the Sierra Club and many other organizations, would double the percentage of property taxes that allocated to the City's parks (from .035% to .065%, so still less than 1%). This isn't a new tax, just a re-allocation of existing funds.

For Griffith Park, that means rangers, open space and native plant specialists, clean and open restrooms, maintained grounds, and a real dent in the deferred maintenance backlog.

Here are ways to support this proposal:

• Friday, June 12, 1 PM -- City Hall: The Rules Committee votes on whether to advance doubling parks funding to the full Council. We need a strong turnout — please try to get there by noon, wear green, and share why you support doubling parks funding!
• TBA Full City Council -- Depending on Rules Committee action, the full City Council votes on whether to place this and other charter reforms on the November ballot.
• Angelenos — November 2026 -- if Council acts, voters decide.

You can also contact your Councilmember and amplify the message on social media.
