Dear Mr. Villaraigosa

My name is Ronald McLoren. I am currently a senior at Phineas Banning High School in Wilmington the LAUSD. I am writing you to ask for your support in keeping the community a little more safer.

To Begin with, our cities need more police officers. Many people around the city are scared to walk the streets at night or even alone even in broad daylight. With more officers present, Crooks and gang members will be less likely to attack someone. The next thing our cities need are more street lights. We need more lights to illuminate the darker areas around the city. With more street lights and Crosswalk Lights, people will be more safer and comfortable in their own city.

We know that without both city leaders and the residents cooperating we as city cannot function. When the city and its inhabitants work together to make a better city, we all benefit. Please Help us Better our community. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Ronald McLoren
