Requests for reasonable modification or accommodation from individuals with disabilities, consistent with the Americans
with Disabilities Act can be made by contacting the City Clerk's Office at (213) 978­1133. For Telecommunication Relay
Services for the hearing impaired, please see the information below.


Telecommunication Relay Services


Telephone communication is one of the most important forms of communication in society today. Due to advancements in
technology, telephone devices have evolved with new services and capabilities. Individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing,
and individuals with a speech disability are following these trends and are rapidly migrating to more advanced
telecommunications methods, both for peer­to­peer and third­party telecommunications relay service (TRS)
communications. Telecommunications Relay Service is a telephone service that allows persons with hearing or speech
disabilities to place and receive telephone calls. TRS is available in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and
the U.S. territories for local and/or long distance calls. TRS providers ­ generally telephone companies ­ are compensated
for the costs of providing TRS from either a state or a federal fund. There is no cost to the TRS user.


What forms of TRS are available? There are several forms of TRS, depending on the particular needs of the user and the
equipment available: TRS includes: Text to Voice TIY­Based TRS; Speech­to­Speech Relay Service; Shared Non­English
Language Relay Service; Captioned Telephone Relay Service; Internet Protocol Relay Service; and Video Relay Service.
Please visit this site for detail descriptions, https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/telecommunications­relay­service­trs.


Don't hang up! Some people hang up on TRS calls because they think the CA is a telemarketer. If you hear, "Hello. This is
the relay service .. . " when you pick up the phone, please don't hang up! You are about to talk, through a TRS provider, to a
person who is deaf, hard­of­hearing, or has a speech disability.

AGENDAS ­ The City Council meets Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday at 10:00 A.M. The agendas for City Council meetings
contain a brief general description of those items to be considered at the meetings. Council Agendas are available in the
Office of the City Clerk, Council and Public Services Division, Room 395, City Hall, 200 North Spring Street, Los Angeles,
CA 90012, and on the City's website at lacity.gov or lacouncilcalendar.com.


Ten (10) members of the Council constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The Council may consider an item not
listed on the agenda only if it is determined by a two­thirds (10) vote that the need for action arose after the posting of an
Agenda. Some items on the agenda may be approved without any discussion, however, any item may be called "special"
by a Councilmember. If an item is called "special" it will be "held" until the remainder of the items on the Council agenda
have been acted on by the Council. An item may also be called "special" if a member of the public has requested to speak
on the item and a public hearing was not previously held.


The City Clerk will announce the items to be considered by the Council, however items will be grouped. For example, all
items for which required public hearings have not previously been held are listed in one section on the printed agenda. The
Council President will ask if any Councilmember or member or the public wishes to speak on one or more of these items. If
anyone wishes to speak on an item, it will be called "special". The remaining items in this section will be voted on by
Council with one roll call vote.


PUBLIC INPUT AT CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS ­ An opportunity for the public to address the Council on agenda items for
which public hearings have not been held will be provided at the time the item is considered or during the Multiple Agenda
Item Comment period. Members of the public who wish to speak on items shall be allowed to speak for up to one minute
per item up to a total of three minutes per meeting. The Council has determined that a cumulative total of 20 minutes is a
reasonable minimum amount of time for the Multiple Agenda Item segment of each regular meeting.


The Council will also provide an opportunity for the public to speak on public interest items. Each speaker shall be limited to
one minute of general public comment each regular meeting for a cumulative total of ten (10) minutes. The Council shall not
discuss or take action relative to any general public comment.


If you wish to provide documents to the full Council for consideration on an item, please present the Sergeant­At­Arms with
35 copies. Otherwise, your materials will simply be added to the official record.


COUNCIL DISCUSSION AND TIME LIMITS ­ Councilmembers requesting to address the Council will be recognized by the
Council President in the order requested. For any item, the Chairperson of the Committee, or the maker of the original
motion, or the member calling a matter "special" shall have up to six (6) minutes to discuss the item. All other
Councilmembers may speak up to three (3) minutes each on the matter. After all members desiring to speak on a question
have had an opportunity to be heard once, the time for each Member desiring to speak again shall be limited to a maximum
of three (3) minutes.


A motion calling the "previous question" may be introduced by any member during a Council debate. If adopted, this motion
will terminate debate on a matter and the Chair will instruct the Clerk to call the roll on the matter.


VOTING AND DISPOSITION OF ITEMS ­ Most items require a majority vote of the entire membership of the Council (8
members). Items which have not been discussed in a Council Committee and have been placed directly on the agenda will
require 10 votes to consider. Once considered, these items will normally require eight (8) affirmative votes to be adopted.
Ordinances require a unanimous vote (at least 12 members must be present) in order to be adopted on first consideration. If
an ordinance does not receive the necessary unanimous vote, it is laid over one calendar week. The votes required for
approval on second consideration vary and depend upon the type of ordinance, but a typical ordinance requires eight (8)
affirmative votes upon second consideration.

motion, or the member calling a matter "special" shall have up to six (6) minutes to discuss the item. All other
Councilmembers may speak up to three (3) minutes each on the matter. After all members desiring to speak on a question

When debate on an item is completed, the Chair will instruct the Clerk to "call the roll". Every member present must vote for
or against each item; abstentions are not permitted. The Clerk will announce the votes on each item. Any member of
Council may move to "reconsider" any vote on any item on the agenda, except to adjourn, suspend the Rules, or where an
intervening event has deprived the Council of jurisdiction, providing that said member originally voted on the prevailing side of
the item. The motion to "reconsider" shall only be in order once during the meeting, and once during the next regular
meeting. The member requesting reconsideration shall identify for all members present the agenda number, Council file
number and subject matter previously voted upon. A motion to reconsider is not debatable and shall require an affirmative
vote of eight (8) members of the Council.


When the Council has failed by sufficient votes to approve or reject an item, and has not lost jurisdiction over the matter, or
has not caused it to be continued beyond the next regular meeting, the item is continued to the next regular meeting for the
purpose of allowing the Council to again vote on the matter.


The City Council rules provide that all items adopted by the Council will not be presented to the Mayor, or other designated
officer by the City Clerk until the adjournment of the regular Council meeting following the date of the Council action. A
motion to send an item "forthwith" if adopted by ten (10) votes, suspends these rules and requires the City Clerk to forward
the matter to the Mayor, or other officer, without delay.

 updated sidewalk and park vending fee study.

 Recommendation for Council action:
 REQUEST the City Attorney to prepare and present the necessary
 ordinances to establish a $27.51 annual Permit Fee for the Sidewalk and
 Park Vending Program.


 Fiscal Impact Statement: The City Administrative Officer (CAO) reports
 that approval of the recommendations stated in the CAO report dated July
 25, 2023, attached to the Council file, will recover the administrative costs
 of issuing Sidewalk and Park Vending Permits. Should the City continue
 to issue 944 annual permits at $27.51 per permit, the resulting revenue
 will be $25,969.44. However, the General Fund will be required to pay for
 the costs of enforcement for sidewalk and park vending. In Fiscal Year
 2023­24, enforcement and outreach costs are estimated to be $3.8
 million.

 Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations
 found in said CAO report are not in compliance with the City’s Financial
 Policies as the proposed fees do not recover the City costs required to

 MOTION

 The Neighborhood Purpose Grants (NPG) process provides Neighborhood Councils with
the ability to assist local public schools and 501 (c)3 nonprofits fund projects and activities that
benefit the community. In March 2022, the Historic Highland Park Neighborhood Council
(HHPNC) awarded a $5,000 NPG to the nonprofit Biocitizen L.A. However, on October 2022,
Biocitizen L.A. informed the HHPNC that they were ceasing operations indefinitely and thus
would not be able to utilize the grant funds awarded to the organization. Subsequently, in January
2023, the City Clerk confirmed having received the returned funds.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council authorize the transfer/appropriation of
$5,000 within Neighborhood Council Fund No. 59B-14 from Revenue Code 5188 (Miscellaneous
Revenue) to Account No. 141238 (Historic Highland Park) for the Neighborhood Purpose Grant
funds returned by Biocitizen L.A. to the Historic Highland Park NC.

 I FURTHER MOVE that the City Clerk be authorized to make any technical corrections
or clarifications as necessary to the above instructions in order to effectuate the intent of this
Motion.

 HOUSING &HOMELESSNESS
 MOTION

 Due to recent programs such as Transit Oriented Communities and Density Bonus, newly
 covenanted affordable housing units are being delivered across the city in larger
 mixed-income buildings. While there are legal and programmatic requirements in terms of
 rental rates and the length of the affordability covenants, the process of informing potential
 tenants of unit availability and tenant selection remain opaque.

 There is a clear need for the City to contemplate how these units can support easing the
 twin crises of homelessness and economic insecurity. Whether facilitating partnerships
 between developers and service providers to identify low-acuity People Experiencing
 Homelessness ("PEH") who meet the Area Median Income (AMI) levels with little or no
 rental subsidy, or actively engaging local workers - particularly those who are employed by
 the City - to ensure those who work in Los Angeles can find an affordable home here,
 there are potential avenues by which the City can increase the positive impacts of these
 new units.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council direct the Los Angeles Housing Department
 (LAHD), with assistance from the Department of City Planning (DCP), report back in 90
 days on the procedures governing the marketing and tenant selection for newly constructed
 covenanted affordable housing units in unsubsidized, mixed income projects created
 through Transit Oriented Communities (TOC), Density Bonus and similar programs, the
 extent of city oversight of these processes, and what if any changes will be necessitated by
 the roll out of the Comprehensive Online Affordable Housing Search System as directed by
 Council File 23-0426 (Raman - Harris-Dawson);

 I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council direct the City Administrative Officer (CAO), with
 assistance from LAHD, DCP, the City Attorney's Office, and the Los Angeles Homeless
 Services Authority (LAHSA), and with requested input from the Service Planning Area
 (SPA) lead service homeless agencies, report baGk in 90 days on the feasibility of
 prioritizing newly constructed covenanted affordable housing units in unsubsidized, mixed
 income projects for low-acuity PEH via partnerships with service providers or LAHSA, early
 marketing, master leasing arrangements, or other potential programs;

 I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council additionally direct the CAO, with assistance fro ~ ~ ..
 LAHD, DCP, and the City Attorney's Office, report back in 90 days on the feasibility o~
 prioritizing newly constructed covenanted affordable housing units in unsubsidized, mixed:l:J
 income projects for workers whose employment is either with the City of Los Angeles or is~

 located within the city boundaries, including, but not limited to, unionized service workers. W JI
