EXPANSION OF ILLEGAL DUMPING &
MULTI-FAMILY BULKY ITEM PICKUP TEAMS

Increased funding to double the Bureau of Sanitation’s
(LASAN) Multi-family Bulky Item program staffing to better
meet the needs of the communities impacted by the
disproportionate amount of unreported bulky items in
high density multi-family pockets within the city. Areas for
increased bulky item pickup will be identified using data
from LASAN’s indexing system, CleanStat.

EXPANSION OF CLEAN LA & L.A. RIVER RANGERS

Building upon the early success of Clean LA, launched
through the Mayor’s proposed budget last year, this
budget continues funding for this innovative and
collaborative program. Clean LA, led in partnership by the
Board of Public Works’ Office of Community Beautification
and LASAN, is a comprehensive and efficient model of
deployment and support for cleaning and maintaining the
City’s public right-of-ways and focuses on employing
Angelenos from high employment barrier communities
and providing a pathways to City employment.

In its first year, Clean LA has hired 100 Angelenos from
across the city. This budget allocates over $800,000 to
continue these jobs for a second year. This budget also
allocates $8,256,000 through the CaliforniansForAll youth
grant to expand Clean LA and hire 200 additional youth.
A LIVABLE & SUSTAINABLE CITY
The CaliforniansForAll grant also makes possible a
$4,712,000 investment to expand the L.A. River Rangers
program. This investment will provide a 12-month, full-
time employment opportunity to 135 young Angelenos
who will provide critical maintenance and operation
services along the 32 miles of the L.A. River as a pathway
to a full-time career in the City.
