Episode Details

Councilmember Curren Price is rolling out a bold new initiative in South LA called “Clear the Streets, Reclaim Our Neighborhoods” to tackle the growing problem of abandoned cars—vehicles that not only ruin curb appeal but also create safety hazards, attract illegal dumping, and even serve as makeshift shelters. The program kicks off with 72-hour tickets before impoundment, targeting cars blocking sidewalks, driveways, fire hydrants, or traffic—and those that are non-drivable, environmentally hazardous, or stolen. With LADOT already removing over 6,600 vehicles last year, this campaign aims to speed up cleanup in District Nine while empowering residents to report problems. It’s about more than aesthetics—it’s about restoring safety, accessibility, and pride to neighborhoods where every car matters.
