Strategy 12A

Improve regional collaboration and coordination

Los Angeles is the most populous county in the United States, with 88 incorporated cities and nearly 150 unincorporated communities. Its complex governance includes subregional Councils of Government as well as regional partners such as LA Metro and South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), each of which has its own governance structure, mandates, and budget. Coordination and collaboration amongst public officials and agencies is essential to achieve sustainable outcomes.

Additionally, sustainability initiatives require collaboration across issue areas to multiply benefits with often-limited resources. The County will proactively seek partnerships with business, philanthropic, and nonprofit sector groups to implement OurCounty goals.
