The City of West Hollywood will begin “hybrid” City Council meetings (both in-person and virtual teleconference) starting on Monday, October 18, 2021. The City will monitor Los Angeles County’s COVID-19 daily positivity rates and orders from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health to make any changes, as appropriate.
