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.org; 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.

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.

 AD HOC ~AA/CE L<EJ:o~
 MOTION

In recent years, several city officials faced federal criminal indictments for accepting cash and
large gifts from people who were illegally trying to influence the city's land use and development
process. Actual and perceived corruption erodes the public's trust in local government and
complicates efforts to tackle our housing crisis and to encourage investment and jobs creation.
Los Angeles must build stronger accountability and safeguards into our city's land use and
development services process.

An Office of Inspector General, focused specifically on land use, development, and construction
services, is a potential tool that is missing from our municipal arsenal, though there are
successful models in other jurisdictions. LA Metro has an Office of Inspector General
specifically focused on waste, fraud, and abuse regarding the transit agency's procurements and
development projects. Chicago's Office of the Inspector General may independently start
investigations and issue subpoenas. New York's Department oflnvestigations conducts audits,
with an Inspector General who has statutory qualification requirements. Other cities such as
Houston, Philadelphia, and Jacksonville also have their own Offices oflnspectors General. The
City of Los Angeles should follow suit. An earlier instruction from the Council, CF 20-0608,
charged the Chief Legislative Analyst with studying this task. That analysis has yet to
commence and is better suited to be led by the Ethics Commission, given its technical expertise
and the public review process inherent in the Commission's structure.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the Ethics Commission, with the assistance of the Planning
Department, Department of Building and Safety, Bureau of Engineering, Chief Legislative
Analyst, and City Attorney, be instmcted to report back on best practices and recommendations
for the development, implementation, structure, budget, and operation of an independent
auditors/investigators office to provide focused oversight and monitoring of land use,
development, and construction services in the City of Los Angeles, including potential
amendments to the Los Angeles Municipal Code, Administrative Code, and City Charter.

 MOTION
 PUBLIC SAFETY
The deaths of multiple Angelenos in the first weeks of 2023 renewed the decades-old demand for
accountability from law enforcement in our City. It is imperative that the City Council swiftly address
systemic inequities and remedy any mistakes of the past, especially with regard to police accountability
and the disciplinary process.

Section 1070 of the Los Angeles City Charter details the disciplinary process for officers within the Los
Angeles Police Department. It prescribes that almost all disciplinary actions taken against members of the
police department - including suspension, demotion, and removal - be recommended by the Chief of
Police, but ultimately decided by a "Board of Rights."

A Board of Rights is a three-member panel that serves as a quasi-judicial body, hearing evidence related
to each charge of misconduct, determining guilt, and deciding whether to approve, reduce, or increase the
recommended punishment from the Chief of Police. The Chief of Police may then levy a punishment up
to, but not exceeding, the recommendation by the Board.

Before 2017, the Charter dictated that the composition of a Board of Rights panel be one civilian and two
officers of the rank Captain or above. In May of 2017, voters approved Charter Amendment C, which
authorized City Council to allow officers facing disciplinary action to request an all-civilian Board of
Rights panel. In 2019, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 186100, effectuating this alternative model
for police accountability.

One of the primary promises of Charter Amendment C was to increase police accountability. However,
after analyzing almost four years of Board of Rights hearings and determinations, it is clear that the
opposite is true. Chief of Police Michel Moore wrote the following in a correspondence to the Board of
Police Commissioners (CF #22-1590) last year:

"The Department has observed that all-civilian Boards are resulting in an increased frequency in which
sworn employees who have committed serious misconduct are not being removed from their positions.
Similarly, all-civilian Boards are proving substantially more lenient[,] reducing every recommended
penalty in each Board completed this year. "

According to the Office of the Inspector General, between June 23, 2019 and December 31, 2021, the
Chief of Police recommended 55 officers for removal from the LAPD. Of those 55 officers, 37 chose an
all-civilian Board of Rights composition to determine their ultimate punishment. In over two-thirds of
those cases, the all-civilian Boards either found the accused officers not guilty, or decided upon a lesser
punishment than was recommended by the Chief of Police. Reviewing every Board of Rights hearing that
occurred during this period, all-civilian Boards' determinations led to no or lesser punishment in 77% of
cases. For Board of Rights hearings with traditional compositions, that number was 50%.




FEB 172023.
Given· the clear leniency with which these all-civilian Boards act, more officers are opting to select this
alternate composition. In'the cases where officers were facing removal from the police department, 91%
opted for an all-civilian Board in 2021, growing from 88% in 2020, and 62% in 2019.

The demands for increased police accountability are widespread and growing. Mayor Karen Bass issued a
letter to the Board of Police Commissioners on January 30, 2023 which called for the Chief of Police to
work with the City Council "to reform or remove" the all-civilian option for Board of Rights composition,
and President William Briggs of the Board of Police Commissioners called for the repeal of Ordinance
No. 186100 in the Commission's February 7, 2023 meeting.

There are several options available to both the City Council and the voters in order to better meet the goal
of improving the discipline systems to hold officers accountable, while also protecting due process rights.
It's time the City of Los Angeles meet the demands of the moment and continue to pursue meaningful
change in our police disciplinary systems.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council request that the City Attorney prepare and present a draft
ordinance, repealing Division 22, Chapter 11, Article 12 of the Los Angeles Administrative Code, entitled
"ALTERNATIVE COMPOSITION OF BOARD OF RIGHTS."

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council request that the Chief Legislative Analyst, City Attorney, the
City Clerk, the Los Angeles Police Department, and the Civil and Human Rights and Equity Department
report back in 90 days on recommendations and implementation plans to modify Section 1070 of the Los
Angeles City Charter through various options, which should include, but are not limited to:

 • Alternative models for the Board of Rights, including a modified composition of civilian and
 sworn personnel serving on a Board;

 • Incorporating binding arbitration as a component of the discipline process, where appropriate;
 and

 • Authorizing the Chief of Police to terminate officers immediately (prior to a Board of Rights or
 other due process proceeding) in appropriate cases, as to be determined by the severity of the
 misconduct.

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council request that the City Attorney to prepare and present a draft
ordinance to improve the pool of qualified candidates for civilian hearing examiners, which should
include, but is not limited to:

 • Adding nominating agencies to include local clergy, civil rights organizations, the Office of the
 Inspector General, City Council Offices, and the Mayor;

 • Requiring the inclusion of civilians with diverse experiences and perspectives;

 • Eliminating the criteria requiring years of experience in mediation, arbitration, or similar work;
 • Prohibiting individuals who are current or former employees of local law enforcement agencies
 from serving as civilian hearing examiners; and

 • Requiring and providing training from community-based experts and independent experts on
 police discipline and oversight for all panelists on issues the Board routinely considers such as
 excessive force and domestic violence.

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council request that the Board of Police Commissioners and the
Office of the Inspector General, with the assistance from the City Attorney and the City Administrative
Officer, to report back in 90 days on the status of the transition to attorney prosecutors in lieu of sworn
personnel as advocates to present the City's case for discipline.

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council instruct the Civil and Human Rights and Equity Department
to report back in 90 days, with assistance from the Office of the Inspector General and the Chief
Legislative Analyst, on additional recommendations for affirmatively furthering Angelenos rights against
misconduct by law enforcement, and for increasing accountability when such misconduct occurs.

 MOTION


 The Clean Air Action Plan (CAAP) is a collaborative effort between the Port of Los
  Angeles and Port of Long Beach that establishes a comprehensive strategy for reducing health
  risks associated with air pollution from shipping operations at the ports. The CAAP was first
  adopted in 2006, and updated versions were adopted in 2010 and 2017.

 The CAAP focuses on five source categories: ocean going vessels, harbor craft, heavy
  duty trucks, cargo handling equipment, and locomotives. It's implementing strategy centers on
  clean vehicles and equipment technology and fuels, freight infrastructure investment and
  planning, freight efficiency, and energy resource planning, through technological advancement,
  demonstration projects, regulatory advocacy, and funding advocacy.

 The Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach jointly prepare quarterly progress updates on
  the implementation of the CAAP, providing accomplishments and planned actions. Additionally,
  the ports provide annual reports on the Technology Advancement Program, which advances the
  implementation of the CAAP.

 The projects implemented in efforts to achieve the goals of the CAAP are uniquely
  important to the residents of Council District 15. It would benefit the public for the Port of Los
  Angeles to communicate the progress of its implementation of the CAAP to the City Council, the
  timelines for zero emission technology, and the community input or influence on the CAAP.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council request the Port of Los Angeles to report
  within 90 days, and on a semi-annual basis thereafter, on efforts to achieve the zero-emission
  goals of the Clean Air Action Plan, including the current state and overall feasibility of using
  clean, heavy-duty drayage truck technology throughout the San Pedro Bay port complex, and any
  community input received on clean air projects that have or are being implemented as part of the
  Clean Air Action Plan.

 Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) lost power for nearly an hour on the afternoon
of February 1, 2023. The power outage affected most terminals and resulted in a number of
service delays. LAX is one of the busiest airports in the world, and while Los Angeles World
Airports (LAWA) worked quickly alongside the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power
(LADWP) to address the outage and restore services, power outages of any scale are significant
disruptions.

 There have been several power outages at LAX in recent years, with varying levels of
disruption. In 2017, a Motion (C.F. 17-0971) was introduced to request LADWP to report on
power reliability issues at LAX. LADWP stated that it would take a number of steps to address
these issues in the ensuing report, including implementing new action plans and improving
coordination with LAWA staff and management.

 On June 5, 2019, a power outage lasted several hours, resulting in flight cancellations
and creating security concerns. A Motion (C.F. 19-0614) was introduced requesting LAWA and
LAD WP to report on the outage. LAWA's Emergency Management Division prepared and
presented an after-action report on the incident, with dozens of recommendations based on its
observations and findings. As LAWA investigates the recent power outage at LAX, it is
important to take this opportunity to revisit this 2019 report to see how the recommendations
were implemented.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that Los Angeles World Airports be requested to report, with
assistance from the Department of Water and Power, to the Trade, Travel, and Tourism
Committee on the cause of and response to the February 1, 2023 power outage at Los Angeles
International Airport.

 I FURTHER MOVE that Los Angeles World Airports be requested to report on its
implementation of the recommendations provided in the After-Action Report prepared by its
Emergency Management Division following the June 5, 2019 power outage at Los Angeles
International Airport.

 RESOLUTION

WHEREAS, the City recognizes the public health and economic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic, and further
appreciates the need to facilitate temporary Zoning Code relief to support the local economy and livelihood
of those living and working in the City; and

WHEREAS, the City's declared local emergency initially issued on March 4, 2020 in response to the threat and
risks posed by Covid-19 pandemic, and that declaration was subsequently amended and affirmed, and
extraordinary measures were undertaken by the City to support residents, tenants, business owners, and
property owners Citywide; and

WHEREAS, although the formally declared local emergency terminated February 1, 2023, the need for
measures to provide targeted regulatory relief to local businesses continues to exist in order to maintain
economic stability as they try to recover from the effects of the pandemic; and

WHEREAS, the City desires to extend the provisions within the Municipal Code, Section 16.02.1, Relief from
Specified Land Use Provisions, that allow for regulatory relief from specific time limitations for approvals and
certain automobile parking requirements in the Municipal Code, and must affirmatively activate them by
Resolution; and

WHEREAS, the City intends for the relief to provide needed flexibility for businesses and projects by
extending time limits for approvals, and provide targeted automobile parking relief for existing buildings and
operators that are underpinned by a desire to provide cost savings to local proprietors while furthering the
environmental and mobility goals of the General Plan; and

WHEREAS, an extension of these provisions will provide the Planning Department the ability to engage in
outreach and analysis to determine what permanent changes to the Municipal Code should be made to
support the economic vitality of Los Angeles' commercial districts; and

WHEREAS, the City has undertaken an environmental review of the proposed provisions and found that will
not have a significant effect on the environment (ENV-2020-4927-ND), and further found that aspects of the
proposed regulatory relief are exempt from environmental review (ENV-2021-325-CE-SE);

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that by the adoption of this Resolution, the Council hereby extends the
provisions of Section 16.02.1 of the Municipal Code, 'Relief from Specified Land Use Provisions', to provide
temporary regulatory relief from certain time limitations and automobile parking provisions during and for an
additional 24-month period for a total of 36 months, after the termination or expiration of the local
emergency order, as provided in that section.
