A Message from the City Clerk
First and foremost, on behalf of the entire City Clerk’s staff, I would like to extend my deepest appreciation for your patience and understanding at this urgent moment and hope that you and your loved ones are safe and secure. I encourage you to sign up for NotifyLA, the City’s emergency alerts system, which the City is using to push out updates about COVID-19 prevention. Please encourage your family and friends to do the same. As the situation develops, our Office will remain committed to providing you as much consistent customer service as is possible.
The following will provide some updates on the most recent developments that may affect BID operations in the City. Before I close, I would like to share with you some encouraging words Mayor Garcetti recently sent to City employees:
“This is a moment for preparation, not panic. A moment to be kind and generous and to show the very best of the Angeleno spirit. And I know that each of us will do our part to stay vigilant, stay informed, and help limit the spread of this virus.”
Thank you and stay safe,
Holly L. Wolcott
