NOTE The "service area" is defined in the LA CoDA Guidelines as below: 

Scope

1. LACC shall provide its services to all CoDA meetings in the Los Angeles area who feel that LACC serves their needs, provided that they are registered with the Fellowship Service Office of CoDA and LACC’s Meeting List Chair.

a. As suggested by the CoDA Fellowship Service Manual (FSM), a CoDA meeting consists of two or more individuals who meet regularly in accordance with the Twelve Traditions, where the Twelve Steps, Twelve Traditions, CoDA Preamble, and CoDA Welcome are read at each meeting.

2. The general boundaries of the service area are Mulholland Highway to the north, Interstate 5 to the east, the Orange County line to the south-east, and the southern and western coastlines.

3. CoDA meetings in border areas may choose to participate with and support the local Community Committee which best serves their needs. (LACC Guidelines, v 2.3.1) 4 / 23

At intergroup, the motion for #1-4 passed in Dec 2021, #5 was added in a motion that passed Feb 2022. Both motions say to revisit the concepts after a year in Dec 2022 to decide whether or not to add them to the Guidelines.
