from 39 city-owned vehicles over Christmas weekend, the Los Angeles City Council passed a motion Wednesday aimed at developing a plan for reducing theft of city property.
The 39 stolen catalytic converters were estimated to cost a total of $74,000, the motion stated. In March 2021, the city also lost dozens of catalytic converters following a break-in at a city yard in Lincoln Heights, where catalytic converters were stolen from 68 vehicles. "The theft of catalytic converters in particular is widespread nationwide, and has gotten worse because of recent dramatic increases in the salvage value of their components," the motion stated, adding that it poses "significant" risk to taxpayers.
The motion, which was introduced by Councilman Paul Krekorian and Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez, instructs the chief legislative analyst to work with the Board of Public Works, the Los Angeles Police Department, the Department of General Services and other relevant departments on a report within 30 days into thefts that have occurred at city facilities over the last two years that have resulted in significant losses or damage to city assets.
