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 peer-to-peer and third-party 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 TIY-Based TRS; Speech-to-Speech Relay Service; Shared Non-English
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/telecommunications-relay-service-trs.

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, hard-of-hearing, or has a speech disability.

For more information about FCC programs to promote access to telecommunications services for people with disabilities,
visit the FCC's Disability Rights Office website.

 BASIC CITY COUNCIL MEETING RULES

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 two-thirds (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 Sergeant-At-Arms
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




 Tuesday - March 29, 2022 - PAGE 3
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.

NOTICE TO PAID REPRESENTATIVES - If you are compensated to monitor, attend, or speak at this meeting, City
law may require you to register as a lobbyist and report your activity. See Los Angeles Municipal Code 48.01 et seq.

978-1960 or ethics.commission@lacity.org.

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

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.

RULE 16 MOTIONS - Council Rule No. 16, in part, allows a member to send an item directly to the Council without it
having to go to a Council Committee first, by giving the City Clerk a motion (seconded by an additional member) during
a Council session to be placed on the next regular available Council agenda.

 Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO reports that there is a potential impact
 to the General Fund associated with the Reserve Fund loan. Because
 FEMA reimbursements are General Fund revenue, if FEMA does not
 reimburse all costs, then the Reserve Fund loan may not be fully repaid.
 In addition, if the City programs the FEMA revenue to another program as
 part of a future budget process, then the loan would need to be forgiven
 as the revenue would not be available to repay the loan.

 Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the above
 recommendations comply with the City Financial Policies.

 Community Impact Statement: None submitted

 to the General Fund associated with the Reserve Fund loan. Because
 FEMA reimbursements are General Fund revenue, if FEMA does not

 part of a future budget process, then the loan would need to be forgiven
 as the revenue would not be available to repay the loan.

 Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the above
 recommendations comply with the City Financial Policies.

 RESOLUTION

 WHEREAS, any official position of the City of Los Angeles with respect to legislation, rules, regulations or policies
proposed to or pending before a local, state or federal government body or agency must first have been adopted in the form of
a Resolution by the City Council with the concurrence of the Mayor; and

 WHEREAS, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson was born in Washington, DC and grew up in Miami, Florida; and

 WHEREAS, her parents, Johnny Brown and Ellery Brown, attended segregated primary schools, then attended
historically black colleges and universities; and

 WHEREAS, Judge Jackson comes from a family of public servants as her parents started their careers as public school
teachers and became leaders and administrators in the Miami-Dade Public School System and her brother became a police
officer and served in the United States military; and

 WHEREAS, when Judge Jackson traces her love of the law back to sitting next to her father in their apartment as he
tackled his law school homework and she undertook her preschool homework, coloring books; and

 WHEREAS, Judge Jackson stood out as a high achiever in her childhood and became a speech and debate star in middle
school and student body president in high school; and

 WHEREAS, even with all of her success, as a Black woman, Judge Jackson still faced naysayers including her high school
guidance counselor who told her to temper her expectations when she said she wanted to attend Harvard; and

 WHEREAS, Judge Jackson was not deterred by naysayers as she graduated magna cum laude Harvard University, then
attended Harvard Law School, where she graduated cum laude and was an editor of the Harvard Law Review; and

 WHEREAS, following her time at Harvard Law School, and before becoming a judge, Judge Jackson was a public
defender, Supreme Court Clerk, and Vice Chair of the U.S. Sentencing Commission; and

 WHEREAS, Judge Jackson was nominated by Barack Obama in 2012 to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia
and confirmed as a Judge in 2013 with bipartisan support; and

 WHEREAS, Judge Jackson was nominated by Joe Biden in 2021 to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit and was
confirmed the same in 2021 with bipartisan support; and

 WHEREAS, on February, 25, 2022, President Joe Biden nominated Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to become the 1161h
Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court and the first Black woman to serve as a Supreme Court Justice; and

 WHEREAS, if confirmed, to our country's highest court, Judge Jackson will continue to break barriers as she will be the
sixth woman to serve as a judge and third Black judge in the history of the United States Supreme Court; and

make an impact in our society:

 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, with concurrence of the Mayor, that by adoption of this Resolution, the City of Los
Angeles STRONGLY SUPPORTS the confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court as the 116th
Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court and first Black woman to serve as a Supreme Court Justice.

 WHEREAS, any official position of the City of Los Angeles with respect to legislation, rules, regulations or
 policies proposed to or pending before a local, state, or federal government body or agency must have first been
 adopted in the form of a Resolution by the City Council with the concurrence of the Mayor; and

 WHEREAS, California has an enormous solid waste disposal crisis fueled in large part by the surge of
 single-use and disposable items made of plastics and other materials; and

 WHEREAS, almost all single-use plastic items cannot be recycled due to unavailability of facilities, economic
 factors, and a lack of markets; and

 WHEREAS, there are insufficient Southern California composting facilities that accept food-contaminated
 products; and

 WHEREAS, many paper-based items should not be composted due to the presence of "forever" fluorinated
 chemicals, suspected carcinogens that have been detected in finished compost, groundwater and drinking
 water; and

 WHEREAS, single-use and disposable items that are disposed in landfills generate methane, a potent
 greenhouse gas 80 times more powerful than carbon dioxide; and

 WHEREAS, Los Angeles cannot achieve its goals of reducing landfill disposal by 1,000,000 tons per year and
 zero-waste by 2025 while single-use disposable items are so prevalent; and

 WHEREAS, there are more than 650,000 students enrolled in Los Angeles Unified School District schools and
 more than 200,000 enrolled in the Los Angeles Community College District, and together these agencies serve
 approximately 400,000 free meals per day; and

 WHEREAS, because few schools have dishwashers, school districts are compelled to generate a tremendous
 amount of waste from single-use and disposable foodware such as trays, plates, and utensils; and

 WHEREAS, many restaurants across Los Angeles, particularly small "mom and pop" restaurants, also lack
 dishwashers, limiting their ability to transition from single-use disposable to reusable foodware; and

 WHEREAS, the introduction of commercial dishwashers in Los Angeles schools would enable reuse
 partnerships between schools and such restaurants, and provide the foundation for a unique economic
 development model that could be expanded across Los Angeles; and

 WHEREAS, Senate Bill 1255 (Portantino) seeks to address the waste crisis by establishing the Dishwasher
 Grant Program for Waste Reduction in K-12 Schools and Community Colleges to provide grants to school
 districts, charter schools, and community college districts for the purchase and installation of commercial
 dishwashers, representing an upstream waste prevention measure that would allow schools to avoid single-use
 items and thus assist Los Angeles in meeting its solid waste diversion goals.

 RESOLUTION

 WHEREAS, any official position of the City of Los Angeles with respect to legislation, rules,
 regulations or policies proposed or pending before a local, state or federal governmental body or
 agency must first have been adopted in the form of a Resolution by the City Council with the
 concurrence of the Mayor; and

 WHEREAS, Government Code section 7060 et seq. (the Ellis Act, or, Ellis) allows landlords to
 terminate tenancies in rent-control jurisdictions without cause in order to withdraw property from
 the residential rental market and since its enactment in 1985, more than 27,000 units have been
 withdrawn from the rental market in Los Angeles alone under the Ellis Act, with an additional
 tens of thousands in other jurisdictions throughout California; and

 WHEREAS, such evictions most often affect long-term, elderly, disabled and below-market rent
 tenants and cause great upheaval and disruption and often result in these residents having to risk
 becoming homeless or leave the City due to high market rate rents being out of reach for many
 tenants; and
 WHEREAS, the current law destabilizes the rental market and disadvantages tenants via the
 increasingly emergent pattern of Ellis being used by developers to empty rent stabilized properties
 so they can be redeveloped; and

 WHEREAS, the vast majority of these evictions occur within five years of a new owner purchasing
 the property, as speculator developers will often purchase the property and "go out of business"
 immediately after, making the Ellis Act a major loophole for speculative developments that
 provides an incentive to destroy California's rent-controlled housing for profit; and

 WHEREAS, AB 2050 (Lee) seeks to stop speculator Ellis evictions by requiring five years of
 ownership before the Ellis Act can be invoked, a proposal which this Council has supported in
 prior legislative years.

 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that with the concurrence of the Mayor, by the
 adoption of this Resolution, the City of Los Angeles hereby includes in its 2021-2022 State
 Legislative Program SUPPORT for Assembly Bill2050 which provides that apartment buildings
 must be owned for a minimum of five years before becoming eligible for invocation of the Ellis
 Act.

 RESOLUTION

 WHEREAS, any official position of the City of Los Angeles with respect to legislation, rules, regulations
 or policies proposed or pending before a local, state or federal governmental body or agency must first
 have been adopted in the form of a Resolution by the City Council with the concurrence of the Mayor;
 and

 WHEREAS, the Los Angeles Economic Development Corporation's (LAEDC) Institute for Applied
 Economics recently released a report, "California Film and Television Tax Credit Program 2.0," prepared
 for the Motion Picture Association; and

 WHEREAS, according to the report this Tax Credit program, originally in effect from July 2015 through
 July 2020, contributed almost $21.9 billion in economic output in California over five years; and

 WHEREAS, the program supported some 110,300 total jobs (includes direct, indirect, and induced) in
 California during that time; and

 WHEREAS, the increase in economic activity has returned to state and local governments an estimated
 $961.5 million in tax revenue; and

WHEREAS, for every tax credit dollar approved under California's Film and Tax Credit program, at least
$24.40 in output, $16.14 in gross domestic product (GDP), $8.60 in wages, and $1.07 in initial state and
local tax revenue will result from production in the state of California; and

WHEREAS, the study emphasized the growing appeal of shooting in other states and countries that offer
more competitive tax incentives than California, with more than 30 states offering production incentives
to attract film and TV productions and that California's "tax incentives are less competitive- in some
cases, substantially less."; and

WHEREAS, the study includes a set of recommendations identified to continue to support California's
iconic film and television production industry, helping to prevent further runaway production to other
jurisdictions with more attractive tax credit programs and helping to ensure continued growth of the
industry, its workforce, its infrastructure, and the clustering effect of the industry that helps generate
additional activity across the varying supporting industries; and

WHEREAS, these recommendations include suggesting the following be considered:
  a. Addressing California's lack of a standalone video effects (VFX) tax credit to
 prevent the further loss of this growing part of the industry.
  b. Making California's tax credit certificates refundable or transferable similar to
 other states' programs to attract productions with larger job numbers.
  c. Setting a cap on the amount of tax credits to be refunded or transferred in any one year.
  d. Expanding the tax credits available in the new California Sound Stage Filming
 Tax Credit Program (SB144) to ensure California continues to grow its much-needed sound-stage
 production infrastructure; and

WHEREAS, other study recommendations and associated ideas to combat "runaway production" are
represented in pending state legislation, including:




MAR 2 9 2022

..

 • SB 485 (Portantino) that extends certain existing tax credits for productions through July 1, 2030;
 • SB 611 (Allen) that enhances tax credits for productions which provide specific career development
 opportunities;

 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that with the concurrence of the Mayor, by the
 adoption of this Resolution, the City of Los Angeles hereby includes in its 2021-2022 State
 Legislative Program SUPPORT for Senate Bill 485 and Senate Bill 611, which will enhance,
 extend and expand California's film and television tax credit program; and
