A draft report on the city's emergency response to the pandemic called the operation 'uncoordinated and inefficient.'
A review of Los Angeles’ emergency response to the COVID-19 pandemic found that Mayor Eric Garcetti and his team excluded city departments when making decisions, resulting in an “uncoordinated and inefficient” operation.
But the lack of transparency from Garcetti’s office helped fuel two simultaneous and parallel emergency operations — one led by the mayor and one led by the head of the city’s Emergency Management Department, or EMD, the report found.The 216-page draft report by CPARS Consulting gives an insider’s view of the mayor’s office during the health crisis.The timetable to lift the indoor mask mandate potentially could be even shorter if the federal guidance on face coverings changes.
“While some comments may reflect personal opinions of a few of those interviewed, they do not reflect an accurate account and understanding of the reality of the emergency response while we were in the midst of a complex global crisis,” Kellogg said. Nick Lowe, president and chief executive of CPARS Consulting, said the report is going through a revision process that includes gathering more data. His company “stands by the integrity of each iteration of the report at the time they were drafted,” he said.
“When the mayor and his office assumed that role for the COVID-19 pandemic, not surprisingly, the emergency operation was uncoordinated and inefficient,” the report found.
