WHAT IS A NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL?
Neighborhood Councils are the closest form of government to the people. They are advisory bodies, who advocate for their communities with City Hall on important issues like development, homelessness, and emergency preparedness. Neighborhood Councils are part of the Los Angeles City government, and have annual budgets funded by taxpayer dollars. Neighborhood Council board members are City officials who are elected by the members of their local communities, but they donate their time as volunteers.
The TNC Board is elected by stakeholders and holds regular monthly meetings on the fourth Tuesday of the month. Special Meetings are sometimes called, in between the regular monthly meetings, when matters of urgency need to be addressed. Any and all meeting times, dates, locations, and agendas are always posted, on the Tarzana Neighborhood Council tarzananc.org website, at least 72 hours in advance and often on social media.
In addition to the General Board; TNC has Committees which are focused on key issues such as: beautification, budget & finance, homelessness, land use, public safety & traffic, as well as a committee for outreach.
WHO CAN RUN OR VOTE?
While Neighborhood Council board members are volunteers, they are public officials elected by the members of their community. Most board members serve two-year terms. All 21 seats/positions on the TNC are open.
Unlike other city, state, or federal elections, voting and being a candidate in Neighborhood Council (NC) elections is open to more than just the residents of a community. Participation is open to those who live, work, or own property or a business within an NC’s boundaries, as well as to “community interest stakeholders,” such as church members, local students (or parents of students), or members of local service organizations. Please check TNC Boundary Map here.
Candidates need not be US citizens or legal residents to qualify. Participation is also open to the formerly incarcerated. The minimum age to vote is 16; the minimum age to run for a TNC seat is 18.
