Neither the 90 day evaluation nor the 120-day creation of a "citywide MyLA311 Customer Service Policy" have been announced.
I hereby direct the Customer Service Steering Committee to perform the following tasks:
1. Within the next 90 days, evaluate the full life-cycle of each City service, develop transparent process maps for each service so that residents can understand the outcome, and establish key performance measures for service delivery. The following departments shall be members of the Customer Service Steering Committee:
2. Conduct focus groups composed of active and potential MyLA311 users to improve the system design of the user experience and customer relationship management. My Office of Community Engagement shall conduct other outreach activities with key constituencies to improve and encourage community engagement............
Zach Seidl was appointed as deputy mayor of communications in December 2022. He had worked with Bass when she was a congresswoman.
The Mayor appointed Karren Lane, Deputy Mayor of Community Empowerment and Annetta Wells, Director of Community Engagement, in January 2023
It should be noted of the "Office of Community Engagement" a June 2023 appointment was Jared Rivera, Deputy Mayor of Community Engagement
We have reached out to the Office of Community Engagement for the status of the MyLA311 policies.
5. Within the next 120 days, create a citywide MyLA311 Customer Service Policy that governs departments’ intake, fulfillment, and communication of information and services to the public. The Customer Service Policy shall address long-standing differences in customer service throughout the City by creating a standard vocabulary and common definition of service delivery across all departments to ensure that customers are receiving consistent, high levels of service.
