Jill and I wrote a letter to our various local city and state representatives asking them if they would not mind looking at and possibly addressing a half dozen or so issues on our street. It was a very nice letter and we sent it to all possible relevant parties.
You know: maybe less prostitutes on the street, take down the overhead power lines, remove the derelict buildings, and modify Sepulveda Blvd so that it appeared that people who were expected to live here could do so with dignity and with some of the amenities that the rich white folk have in other parts of this Ciudad de Los Angeles.
We got one letter returned without forwarding address but no other response. Not even a form letter or a robocall from a digital assistant. How rude. What were we thinking? That the city of LA cares about its citizens?
Now we get to call their office and see if they even got the letter. Yes, we know there is very little chance that anything will come of this. But we think it is worth a little of our time to try and have our elected representatives do their job.
