Issues & Platform
Fighting for the Soul of Inglewood
Yolanda Davidson's platform is built on four pillars that matter most to Inglewood residents: safety, mobility, quality of life, and honest leadership.
Inglewood deserves a representative who shows up, speaks up, and never backs down. Inglewood needs leadership who gets results, not makes excuses.
Yolanda Davidson
Every Inglewood resident deserves to feel safe in their home, on their street, and in their community.
- ✓Increase patrols in high-crime areas and strengthen visible neighborhood policing to deter crime and improve response times.
- ✓Put more traffic officers on our streets to address speeding, reckless driving, illegal parking, and traffic congestion.
- ✓Expand community-based policing and local hiring so officers have a more meaningful connection to the neighborhoods and residents they serve.
- ✓Create a truly independent Police Accountability Commission and support the Bryan Bostic Police Accountability Act to strengthen transparency, oversight, and public trust.
- ✓Invest in alternatives for nonviolent calls, including trained mental-health professionals and crisis-response services, so police resources can remain focused on crime and public safety.
Inglewood's safety is not a talking point. It's paramount.
With the Forum, SoFi Stadium, the Intuit Dome, and Hollywood Park Entertainment Complex bringing millions of visitors, Inglewood's streets are under more pressure than ever.
- ✓Conduct a full audit of the outsourced Traffic Division to determine whether it is financially responsible, operationally effective, and actually improving traffic conditions for residents.
- ✓Require stadiums and arenas to put residents first by developing enforceable traffic-management plans that reduce event-day gridlock in District 1 neighborhoods.
- ✓Explore true local-access-only protections for Morningside Park and other heavily impacted neighborhoods during major events, while ensuring residents, their guests, caregivers, and deliveries can get through.
- ✓Increase traffic enforcement on residential streets and major corridors, focusing on speeding, blocked intersections, illegal parking, dangerous driving, and event-related congestion.
- ✓Create a District 1 Resident Traffic Plan using resident input and traffic data to identify chronic problem areas and establish measurable goals for reducing congestion and improving neighborhood access.
Development should lift residents up, not strand them in traffic.
LAX flight paths have long burdened Inglewood with excessive noise and air pollution. Our families deserve relief not more broken promises.
- ✓Request a comprehensive reassessment of how current LAX flight paths, aircraft frequency, altitude, and aviation noise are impacting Inglewood neighborhoods.
- ✓Meet directly with the FAA and LAWA to advocate for solutions that reduce unnecessary aircraft noise over our homes and improve residents' quality of life.
- ✓Audit Inglewood's Residential Sound Insulation Program to determine how many eligible homes have been completed, how many are still waiting, how long residents are waiting, and where the funding is going.
- ✓Fight for faster sound-insulation relief so qualifying residents are not left waiting years for improvements they have already been promised.
- ✓Demand greater transparency and resident involvement in aviation decisions by making noise data, flight-path information, program funding, and progress reports easily accessible to the public.
No Inglewood family should lose sleep over decisions made without them.
Inglewood residents have watched development deals get made behind closed doors. That ends with Yolanda Davidson in District 1.
- ✓Publish city contracts and development agreements online so residents can see how public business is being conducted.
- ✓End 15-minute City Council meetings with little or no meaningful public dialogue. Residents deserve discussion, questions, and answers.
- ✓Create a Resident Advisory Board with a meaningful role in decisions that directly impact our neighborhoods.
- ✓I will be accessible to you and accountable for the decisions I make on the dais.
- ✓Require clear conflict-of-interest disclosures related to City Council votes.
- ✓Fight for an equitable share of billboard, stadium, and arena-related revenues to benefit Inglewood residents.
- ✓When we are told digital billboards and other city assets are generating millions of dollars, I won't just accept the numbers.
Leadership without accountability will fail.
Yolanda's Commitment to District 1
I will be the independent voice on the dais. I will always put the interest of District 1 first.
