VENICE, CA โ Friday, December 12, 2025 โ A coordinated multi-agency cleanup operation moved through the public parking lot at 301 S. Main Street near Rose Avenue on Friday morning as the City of Los Angeles continued efforts to maintain sanitation, safety, and accessibility in public spaces.
The operation was led by the Department of Public Works in coordination with the Los Angeles Police Department, Clean Harbors Environmental Services, Environmental Compliance Inspectors (ECI), the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), and a homeless coordinator from Councilwoman Traci Parkโs office. Sanitation crews, outreach workers, hazardous-materials specialists, and law-enforcement officers worked together to address accumulated debris throughout the parking-lot area.
Advance cleanup notices had been posted in accordance with Los Angeles Municipal Code ยง56.11, advising individuals camping in the area to temporarily vacate so cleanup activities could proceed. Inspectors provided 60-gallon bags and explained the regulations to those on scene. Individuals gathered their belongings and complied with the notices, allowing crews to begin clearing the site.
Environmental Compliance Inspectors and Clean Harbors personnel identified and removed hazardous materials, including batteries and aerosols, while Department of Public Works crews collected trash, bulky items, and other debris from the lot.
Representatives from Councilwoman Traci Parkโs office assisted with inter-agency coordination during the operation. LAHSA outreach workers were also present, distributing bottled water, food, and hygiene kits, and offering information about available supportive housing and mental-health services.
No arrests or citations were reported.
Santa Monica Closeup continues to document public events of local significance across the Westside, including homelessness outreach efforts, law-enforcement activity, and sanitation and cleanup operations.
