LOS ANGELES—In a move to address public safety concerns stemming from property crimes and other issues, Los Angeles Police Department divisions on the west side will receive $200,000 to increase patrols, Councilwoman Katy Yaroslavsky’s office announced Thursday.

On Wednesday, the L.A. City Council approved the councilwoman’s motion to allocate the money for police overtime in her Fifth District. LAPD’s Wilshire Division and West LA Division will receive $90,000 each, and $20,000 will be given to the Pacific Division, which covers a smaller portion of the district.
