Having a problem with a neighbor’s property?
- Talk to your neighbor and try to get the issue resolved
- Report a violation to Building and Safety: https://ladbs.org/reportviolations
- Check back on the Building and Safety site to check the status of the violation - typically you're going to want to see "Order to Comply" which means the inspector has ordered the property owner to fix the problem
- Contact the CD7 council office if the violation has not been resolved, they can help follow up http://www.monicarodriguez.org/up
- If none of this works after several weeks, please come to the Land Use Committee meeting, and we can look into the situation and see if a letter from the Neighborhood Council to the city is warranted to help resolve the situation.
