Los Angeles Park Rangers Lead Safe Cleanup Operations at Venice Beach Encampments
VENICE BEACH, LOS ANGELES - On November 17, 2023, the City of Los Angeles carried out a cooperative initiative aimed at addressing the homelessness issue at Venice Beach. The operation saw the combined efforts of the Department of Public Works, Recreation and Parks, and Clean Harbors Environmental Services.
To ensure their safety during the cleanup, workers were equipped with hazardous materials gear. The Housing Coordinator from Councilwoman Traci Park’s office played a pivotal role, streamlining communication among the involved city departments, which are tasked with overseeing homeless encampments.
The operation benefited from the seamless coordination of three specialized waste management teams, which handled the disposal of regular as well as hazardous waste. Additionally, the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) extended their expertise with on-site outreach.
Throughout the operation, the vigilant presence of Los Angeles Park Rangers proved essential in upholding safety standards and ensuring adherence to compliance measures.
The Venice Beach cleanup serves as a testament to the City of Los Angeles’ comprehensive strategy to combat homelessness. Such endeavors emphasize the city’s relentless commitment to addressing the underlying causes of homelessness and offering vital support to those affected.
