When a resident contacted my Sylmar district office regarding overgrown vegetation and encampments along the Sylmar Creek in between Glenoaks Blvd. and Bledsoe St. in Sylmar, my office began to work in collaboration with LA Sanitation to abate and provide much-needed services to this creek. LA Sanitation’s team will continue to work south along the creek in the coming weeks.
Here is a look at what we’ve done so far!
