MidCity West Community Council operates as part of Los Angeles' neighborhood council system, established by the city charter in 1999 to give local areas a voice in policy making and how the government operates. The council focuses on the Mid City West area, inviting participation from residents, property owners, workers, and other stakeholders in the community. Its governing body is the Board of Directors, which has 45 seats and includes multiple community-interest positions; any stakeholder can run for a seat, and all meetings are publicly posted. The council is designed to reflect the community and ensure transparency, with no single group permitted to control its affairs. A recent development includes a partnership with Greenway Arts Alliance, Inc. to collaborate on an annual event celebrating Black resilience, beauty, joy, and art.
