We're in the midst of Sunshine Week in the good ol' US of A, which means so is Los Angeles, as the ever-nerdy Brian Humphrey pointed out. (I'm not sure how it was missed!)
Sunshine Week is all about access to information. Anyone can participate, as their website states:
"The only requirement is that you do something to engage in a discussion
about the importance of open government. It could be a large public forum or a
classroom discussion, an article or series of articles about access to important
information, or an editorial. The extent to which you participate is up to
you.
Participation is not about how much you do; it's about doing it."
Here at LA City Nerd, we like to think of what we do as always letting the sunshine into the City of Los Angeles. It's a big City, but we do what we can to make it more manageable, understandable, and sustainable. So, go ask your questions of your elected officials and City, and more importantly: get involved!
That's the City Nerd's take on Sunshine Week: don't just get the information; do something with it to make the City better!
