San Pedro is represented by three neighborhood councils, official City of Los Angeles government bodies that serve as the grassroots voice of the people. If you live, work or own property in San Pedro, you are a member of at least one council.
As a constituent (or “stakeholder”), you can attend the monthly meetings, express your opinion, bring your neighbors to testify on an issue that affects all of you, vote in the board elections or even run for office yourself.

If you are not happy about what is going on in Pedro attend a meeting of the Neighborhood Council. San Pedro has 3 areas depending on where you live. Come and speak out.
Ask the neighbors around 20th and Walker. Neighborhood Council supported their efforts and gave them a forum to speak.
Love this new Pedro blog site. Thanx.
Attend one if you are happy, that way they'll know ya when ya show up "not happy".
