Safety Update: Silver Lake Together and LAPD Hold 10th Community Meeting

On May 26, Silver Lake Together held its 10th monthly community virtual meeting with its

partners at LAPD’s Northeast Division and neighborhood leaders. Captain III Art Sandavol, Northeast Division, thanked attendees for being open to working with LAPD to reduce crime, improve quality of life and further relationships. As reported above, Los Angeles Fire Department Deputy Chief Armando Hogan was the special guest and presented information on a myriad topics, including natural disaster preparedness, illegal fireworks and brush clearance. LAPD Officer Lawrence Henderson of LAPD’s Central Traffic was pleased to report that for the past 30 days, there were only two serious traffic incidents in Silver Lake, both on Rowena. Senior Lead Officer Jesse Aispuro and Gina Paialii provided valuable updates on community outreach and safety initiatives. And in response to concerns voiced by community members, the group also discussed the need for a traffic study at the corner of Glendale Boulevard and Riverside Drive.
