Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the purpose of a Neighborhood Council?
The Neighborhood Council system enables civic participation for all Angelenos and serves as a voice for improving government responsiveness to local communities and their needs. We are an advisory body to the City of Los Angeles, comprised of volunteer stakeholders who are devoted to the mission of improving our communities and bringing government close to us.
What is the PNC?
PNC is a city-certified Neighborhood Council made up of people who live, work, own property or have some other connection to Pacoima.
What does the PNC actually do?
This is a question we receive when others hear about Pacoima Neighborhood Council for the first time. The short answer is build, serve and represent the Pacoima community. Come to our next meeting to see how we do this.
