From Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez Desk – Completion of an Abatement and Cleanup Project at Sylmar Upper East Channel

My team is available to you and working around the clock to continue the delivery of city services. I’m pleased to report the completion of an abatement and cleanup project at Sylmar Upper East channel from Bledsoe St. to Tyler Ave. Residents contacted my office regarding overgrown vegetation and nuisance issues in this area. We worked closely with the Bureau of Sanitation to remove overgrown vegetation, trim trees and branches, clean up trash, and clear out the channel. The work resulted in over 200 cubic yards of trash and debris removed. If you see a similar issue in your neighborhood, please call my Pacoima Office at 818-485-0600 or Sylmar District Office at 818-756-8409.
