Hamilton Neighborhood Association, Inc.

The Homeless Education Office is seeking sponsors for the 13th annual Sponsor A Family. Sponsor A Family helps bring the magic of the holidays to our families experiencing homelessness. This year we hope to support approximately 300 identified families across the six Local Districts through bringing families essential resources during the holiday season. We invite you to join in with your friends, family and colleagues to sponsor a family for the holidays. Your generous do...nation will provide gift cards for food, winter clothing and toys for LAUSD students and families. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, holiday packages (i.e., gift cards for food, clothing, hygiene items, toys, etc.) will be matched to meet each family’s specific needs. https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx Sponsors will be asked to select sponsorship commitment from the following packages (suggested amount of $75.00 per family member).

We're LIVE unveiling the new Atlantic Bridge Housing Community. #EveryoneHomeLB

Long Beach, CA - To further protect against the spread of COVID-19, in the midst of an unprecedented increase in cases which continues to impact hospital capacity, the Department of Health and Human Services will issue an updated Health Order tonight that prohibits or limits most non-essential activities, in alignment with the State’s Regional Stay at Home Order. The changes are effective at 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 6.....

- ADVERTISEMENT - The $84 million project, designed by Herdman Architecture and led by Bridge Development Partners, will not only bring in 500 permanent jobs according to Councilmember Rex Richardson, but also decommission a site that was originally a petroleum refinery when it was activated in the 1930s. It has since served as an asphalt manufacturer.

Earlier today, we received reports of a brush fire off the 91 FWY and Long Beach Blvd. I want to thank our Long Beach Fire Department for their quick response a...nd Compton Fire Department and LA County Fire Department for their assistance. They were able to ensure the damage was minimal, as at this time, there are no injuries reported. Although the fire's cause is still under investigation, this is the result of an on-going issue that I have brought before the City Council and our state legislators. The neglect of state easements and rights-of-way during the COVID-19 pandemic is entirely inexcusable, as they pose hazards to public safety. This is not the first brush fire to occur in our District, and we are fortunate that no lives or property were lost today. I have engaged our State leaders over the past few months regarding these concerns, and I am calling on them to work with the State Legislation Committee to propose a solution for on-ramp and easement maintenance. We cannot allow the disrepair of rights-of-way to be the standard in Uptown or any other part of Long Beach. We need CalTrans to step up and do their part in keeping our community both safe and clean.

This 100K addition to a 300K reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest of this horrific shooting. If you have any information please come forward.

Agenda Item #22 Comment About Bringing Back Our Free Monthly Dumpster!! Also Please comment about CAl-Trans abandoning us and leaving us to deal with trash, homeless camps ect.... 22. (20-0931) Recommendation to request City Manager to work with the Public Works and Development Services Departments, California Department of Transportation (CalTrans) and Los Angeles County, to prepare a report on the status of neighborhood clean-up programs and right-of-way maintenance as impa...cted by the COVID-19 pandemic; and Request City Manager to work with the City Health Officer and various Departments to present recommendations on how to safely restart the Long Beach Neighborhood Clean-Up Assistance Programs and other neighborhood improvement programs that have been discontinued due to the COVID-19 pandemic. https://longbeach.granicusideas.com//3262-ci/agenda_items
