Council District 7’s third FREE COVID-19 vaccination pop-up site opens tomorrow in Sunland-Tujunga. Today, we canvassed our CD7 businesses along Foothill Blvd. We are working hard to provide a hyper-local approach and easy access to the COVID-19 vaccine to our CD7 residents. Starting today, anyone age 16 through 64 who has underlying health conditions or disabilities that put them at the highest risk of becoming very sick from COVID-19 are now eligible to be vaccinated.
Other eligible groups continue to include custodians, janitors, public transit workers, airport ground crew workers, social workers (who handle cases of violence, neglect, or abuse), foster parents providing emergency housing, food service workers, farmworkers, animal agriculture workers, emergency services workers, education and childcare workers, healthcare workers, long-term care facilities residents, and seniors aged 65+.

I am pleased to announce that my staff worked closely with the Los Angeles Bureau of Engineering to prioritize and resurface Mercer Street Between Glenoaks Blvd. and Borden Ave. The sections repaired were uneven and had cracks in the asphalt. Street resurfacing is among several improvements I’ve delivered for our community to create safer streets by improving pedestrian safety and reducing collisions, injuries, and fatalities in the 7th Council District.
For more information on upcoming projects in the district, please visit the Streets LA website at https://streetsla.lacity.org/ and select ‘Road Repair’. If you have any questions or would like to recommend another street in the area in need of resurfacing, please contact my Sylmar District Office at (818) 756-8409, Pacoima District Office at (818) 485-0600, or Sunland-Tujunga District Office at (818) 352-3287.

We will begin the RED TIER on MONDAY.
In a major milestone, Los Angeles County has met the state’s threshold to reopen key sectors and starting on Monday will permit a wide range of indoor operations to resume in sectors including middle and high schools; restaurants; movie theaters; gyms and museums, zoos and aquariums, all with safeguards in place.
The move into the state’s less restrictive Red Tier comes as case rates continue to fall significantly from their winter peak.
Key sectors reopening include:

I joined my colleagues Councilmember John Lee, Councilmember Mitch O’Farrell, Councilmember Joe Buscaino to introduce a motion addressing the alarming surge in violence against Asian-Americans.
