We're the only department in the City of Los Angeles with a formal Memorandum of Understanding with Neighborhood Councils, committing to regular and ongoing communication about our programs and policies. In 2005, the Board of Water and Power Commissioners approved an MOU with certified Neighborhood Councils and since then the MOU has been amended and renewed every two to five years. The current MOU, approved in 2023 for a five-year term, continues to enhance effective two-way communications, transparency, and promote information sharing, mutual notice, and education.

Learn more about how to your NC can join in the 2023 MOU.
