LA County’s Microenterprise Home Kitchen Operations (MEHKOs) ordinance is now in effect! I was proud to have the support of the Board of Supervisors in passing the motion to create this ordinance, which allows LA County to align with the state in providing a pathway for unregulated home cooks and sidewalk vendors to become permitted.

I’m excited to share that the 2nd District Business Interruption Fund will start taking applications on October 7. My office is working with the County’s Department of Economic Opportunity and PCR Business Finance to administer the program, which offers grants of up to $10,000 to small businesses that have lost revenue between October 2023 and now due to natural disasters, construction projects, illegal dumping, or other qualifying challenges outside of their control.
LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Los Angeles County Supervisor Holly J. Mitchell provided the following statement on the on Metro Bus Hijack Incident:
September is Senior Center Month! Our senior centers offer so much more than just activities – they provide a supportive community where our older adults can stay connected, active, and healthy.
I am proud to share about the 2nd District Beautification Project that my team has been working on in partnership with the Los Angeles Conservation Corps. This project focuses on revitalizing our unincorporated communities with the highest rates of illegal dumping and debris in our district. These include the unincorporated neighborhoods of East Rancho Dominguez, Florence-Firestone, Westmont/West-Athens, and Willowbrook.
