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 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.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 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.

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.
More information is available at ethics.lacity.org/lobbying. For assistance, please contact the Ethics Commission at
(213) 978-1960 or ethics.commission@lacity.org.

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.




Wednesday - April 15, 2026 - PAGE 3
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.

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.

 Public Testimony of Non-agenda Items Within Jurisdiction of Council



 Items for which Public Hearings Have Been Held

 (1) 25-1142
 PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE REPORT relative to the Pedestrian
 Facility Inventory and Condition Assessment Pilot Project, the
 Pedestrian Facility Damage Severity Matrix, the Americans with
 Disabilities Act (ADA) Self Evaluation and Transition Plan for Public
 Right of Way, and related matters.

 Recommendations for Council action:


 1. RECEIVE AND FILE the Pedestrian Facility Inventory and
 Condition Assessment Pilot Project Final Report, attached to
 the Bureau of Engineering (BOE) dated February 10, 2026,
 attached to the Council file.




Wednesday - April 15, 2026 - PAGE 5
 2. DIRECT the BOE and Bureau of Sanitation (BOS), in
 consultation with Department of Transportation (DOT) and any
 other relevant departments, to report in 120 days with a
 consolidated list of existing City programs that construct, repair,
 remediate, and/or maintain pedestrian facilities, including
 current funding, staffing, workflow, and prioritization
 methodology.


 3. ADOPT the standardized Pedestrian Facility Damage Severity
 Matrix (Table 4-2 of said BOE report), superseding the Damage
 Severity Matrix adopted by the Council in 2018 under Council
 file No. 14-0163-S3; and, AUTHORIZE the City Engineer to
 make technical changes.


 4. DIRECT the BOE, in partnership with the BOS, to prepare
 technical specifications for maintenance work on sidewalks and
 curb ramps and issue a Special Order within 120 days.


 5. DIRECT the BOE, in coordination with the Department on
 Disability, BOS, DOT, and other relevant departments, to report
 with a scope of work and resources needed to complete a
 formal citywide ADA Self Evaluation and Transition Plan for
 Public Right of Way pedestrian facilities and directly associated
 assets.



 Fiscal Impact Statement: The BOE reports that approval of the
 recommendations in said BOE report have no direct fiscal impact. The
 recommended actions include direction to report with information
 about new programs and associated costs. Like all other asset
 classes, implementing asset management practices for pedestrian
 facilities will require direct expenditures on staff, contractual services,
 equipment, and materials. The said BOE report recommends phasing
 in new programs over time to manage upfront costs and build
 capacity. Over time, proactive asset management is expected to
 significantly reduce liability costs resulting from the current condition
 of the City’s pedestrian facilities.

 Items for which Public Hearings Have Not Been Held - (10 Votes Required for
 Consideration)

 (17) 26-1100-S7
 COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE CITY CLERK and CITY ATTORNEY,
 CERTIFICATE OF SUFFICIENCY OF INITIATIVE PETITION,
 RESOLUTION, and ORDINANCE FIRST CONSIDERATION relative to
 an Initiative Petition regarding the Repeal of Los Angeles City
 Business Gross Receipts Tax on Virtually All Businesses Operating in
 the City.
 A. CITY CLERK REPORT
 Recommendation for Council action:

 DETERMINE to submit the proposed initiative ordinance, without
 alteration, to a vote of the electors of the City at the next regular City
 and Statewide election conducted by the County of Los Angeles to be
 held more than 110 days from the date of Council action (the City’s
 General Municipal Election held on November 3, 2026).

 B. CITY ATTORNEY REPORT
 Recommendation for Council action, SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL
 OF THE MAYOR:


 1. ADOPT the proposed initiative ordinance, without alteration.


 OR


 2. ADOPT the accompanying ELECTION ORDINANCE and
 BALLOT RESOLUTION to submit the proposed initiative
 ordinance, without alteration, to a vote of the electors of the City




Wednesday - April 15, 2026 - PAGE 18
 at the next regular City and Statewide election conducted by the
 County of Los Angeles to be held more than 110 days from the
 date of Council action (the City’s General Municipal Election
 held on November 3, 2026).


 OR


 3. REFER the proposed initiative ordinance to a department or
 office for a report on its fiscal and other impacts, provided that
 the Council takes one of the above actions within 30 days after
 referring the proposed initiative ordinance for a report.



 Fiscal Impact Statement: The City Clerk reports that, for Option 1,
 there would be no additional financial impact relative to Election costs.
 For Option 2, a standalone, Citywide Special Election would cost
 approximately $31.8 million ($30.1 million for the cost incurred by the
 RR/CC to conduct the Special Election and $1.7 million for preparing
 and mailing Voter Information Pamphlets [VIPs]). This option may also
 entail possible voter fatigue due to City of Los Angeles voters being
 asked to vote in multiple elections within a few months. For Option 3,
 if the City Council determines to submit the proposed ordinance to the
 electorate at the November 3, 2026 General Municipal Election and
 funds for ballot measures are already budgeted, there will be zero to
 minimal additional financial impact relative to Election costs since
 there will be Citywide races included on the ballot. And for Option 4,
 there would be no additional financial impact relative to election costs,
 unless Council selects Option 2 or Option 3, as listed above. The City
 Clerk also reports that funding for the November 3, 2026 General
 Municipal Election has been requested as part of the City Clerk's
 2026-27 budget submission; however, a final budget appropriation will
 not be available until the 2026-27 Proposed Budget is released April
 20, 2026.

 Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations
 stated in the February 25, 2026 CAO report, attached to the Council
 File, include transfers, appropriations, and authority for expenditures
 totaling $53.7 million. This consists of $12.7 million from various




Wednesday - April 15, 2026 - PAGE 27
 special funds, $36.3 million in MICLA funds, and $4.7 million in
 Capital and Technology Improvement Expenditure (CTIEP) funds. All
 transfers and appropriations are based on existing funds,
 reimbursements, or revenues. There is an unanticipated General
 Fund impact in an amount not yet determined for operations and
 maintenance costs of two facilities currently not in operation, a park
 within Destination Crenshaw and Taxco Theatre. These costs will be
 addressed through the City budget process at the time the facilities
 are scheduled for completion.

 Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the
 recommendations stated in the February 25, 2026 CAO report,
 attached to the Council File, comply with the City’s Financial Policies
 in that appropriations for funds are limited to available cash balances
 needed to fund ongoing maintenance, programming, project
 shortfalls, and critical operational needs in the current budget year.

 Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA
 debt is a General Fund obligation. The appropriation of MICLA
 funding for the Active Decarbonization Pilot Projects (Item B in the
 February 25, 2026 CAO report, attached to the Council File) would
 cause the City to borrow $0.9 million at an approximate 5.5 percent
 interest rate over a period of 20 years. The reauthorization of 2022-
 23 MICLA funding authority to the City Hall Entry Doors Project (Item
 KK in the February 25, 2026 CAO report, attached to the Council File)
 would cause the City to borrow $0.6 million at an approximate 5.5
 percent interest rate over a period of 20 years. The reauthorization of
 2022-23 MICLA funding authority to the West Valley Police Station
 Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning Replacement Project (Item
 LL in the February 25, 2026 CAO report, attached to the Council File)
 would cause the City to borrow $1.0 million at an approximate 5.5
 percent interest rate over a period of 20 years. The total estimated
 debt service for these projects is $4.2 million, including interest of
 approximately $1.7 million. During the life of the bonds, the estimated
 average annual debt service is $0.2 million over a period of 20 years.
 Actual interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on market
 conditions at the time of issuance. The CAO cannot fully predict what
 interest rates will be in the future. In accordance with the City's Debt
 Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide
 the evaluation of the affordability for future debt. The debt ceiling for
 non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is
 six percent. The 2025-26 Adopted Budget non-voter-approved debt
 service ratio is 2.40 percent. The issuance of MICLA debt for these
 projects will not cause the City to exceed the six percent non-voter-

 (1) 25-1142
 PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE REPORT relative to the Pedestrian
 Facility Inventory and Condition Assessment Pilot Project, the
 Pedestrian Facility Damage Severity Matrix, the Americans with
 Disabilities Act (ADA) Self Evaluation and Transition Plan for Public
 Right of Way, and related matters.

 Recommendations for Council action:


 1. RECEIVE AND FILE the Pedestrian Facility Inventory and
 Condition Assessment Pilot Project Final Report, attached to




Wednesday - April 15, 2026 - PAGE 1
 the Bureau of Engineering (BOE) dated February 10, 2026,
 attached to the Council file.


 2. DIRECT the BOE and Bureau of Sanitation (BOS), in
 consultation with Department of Transportation (DOT) and any
 other relevant departments, to report in 120 days with a
 consolidated list of existing City programs that construct, repair,
 remediate, and/or maintain pedestrian facilities, including
 current funding, staffing, workflow, and prioritization
 methodology.


 3. ADOPT the standardized Pedestrian Facility Damage Severity
 Matrix (Table 4-2 of said BOE report), superseding the Damage
 Severity Matrix adopted by the Council in 2018 under Council
 file No. 14-0163-S3; and, AUTHORIZE the City Engineer to
 make technical changes.


 4. DIRECT the BOE, in partnership with the BOS, to prepare
 technical specifications for maintenance work on sidewalks and
 curb ramps and issue a Special Order within 120 days.


 5. DIRECT the BOE, in coordination with the Department on
 Disability, BOS, DOT, and other relevant departments, to report
 with a scope of work and resources needed to complete a
 formal citywide ADA Self Evaluation and Transition Plan for
 Public Right of Way pedestrian facilities and directly associated
 assets.



 Fiscal Impact Statement: The BOE reports that approval of the
 recommendations in said BOE report have no direct fiscal impact. The
 recommended actions include direction to report with information
 about new programs and associated costs. Like all other asset
 classes, implementing asset management practices for pedestrian
 facilities will require direct expenditures on staff, contractual services,
 equipment, and materials. The said BOE report recommends phasing
 in new programs over time to manage upfront costs and build
 capacity. Over time, proactive asset management is expected to
 significantly reduce liability costs resulting from the current condition
 of the City’s pedestrian facilities.

 COMMUNICATIONS FROM CITY CLERK and CITY ATTORNEY,
 CERTIFICATE OF SUFFICIENCY OF INITIATIVE PETITION,
 RESOLUTION, and ORDINANCE FIRST CONSIDERATION relative to
 an Initiative Petition regarding the Repeal of Los Angeles City
 Business Gross Receipts Tax on Virtually All Businesses Operating in
 the City.
 A. CITY CLERK REPORT
 Recommendation for Council action:

 DETERMINE to submit the proposed initiative ordinance, without
 alteration, to a vote of the electors of the City at the next regular City
 and Statewide election conducted by the County of Los Angeles to be
 held more than 110 days from the date of Council action (the City’s
 General Municipal Election held on November 3, 2026).

 B. CITY ATTORNEY REPORT
 Recommendation for Council action, SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL
 OF THE MAYOR:


 1. ADOPT the proposed initiative ordinance, without alteration.


 OR


 2. ADOPT the accompanying ELECTION ORDINANCE and
 BALLOT RESOLUTION to submit the proposed initiative
 ordinance, without alteration, to a vote of the electors of the City
 at the next regular City and Statewide election conducted by the
 County of Los Angeles to be held more than 110 days from the
 date of Council action (the City’s General Municipal Election
 held on November 3, 2026).


 OR




Wednesday - April 15, 2026 - PAGE 16
 3. REFER the proposed initiative ordinance to a department or
 office for a report on its fiscal and other impacts, provided that
 the Council takes one of the above actions within 30 days after
 referring the proposed initiative ordinance for a report.



 Fiscal Impact Statement: The City Clerk reports that, for Option 1,
 there would be no additional financial impact relative to Election costs.
 For Option 2, a standalone, Citywide Special Election would cost
 approximately $31.8 million ($30.1 million for the cost incurred by the
 RR/CC to conduct the Special Election and $1.7 million for preparing
 and mailing Voter Information Pamphlets [VIPs]). This option may also
 entail possible voter fatigue due to City of Los Angeles voters being
 asked to vote in multiple elections within a few months. For Option 3,
 if the City Council determines to submit the proposed ordinance to the
 electorate at the November 3, 2026 General Municipal Election and
 funds for ballot measures are already budgeted, there will be zero to
 minimal additional financial impact relative to Election costs since
 there will be Citywide races included on the ballot. And for Option 4,
 there would be no additional financial impact relative to election costs,
 unless Council selects Option 2 or Option 3, as listed above. The City
 Clerk also reports that funding for the November 3, 2026 General
 Municipal Election has been requested as part of the City Clerk's
 2026-27 budget submission; however, a final budget appropriation will
 not be available until the 2026-27 Proposed Budget is released April
 20, 2026.

 Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations
 stated in the February 25, 2026 CAO report, attached to the Council
 File, include transfers, appropriations, and authority for expenditures
 totaling $53.7 million. This consists of $12.7 million from various
 special funds, $36.3 million in MICLA funds, and $4.7 million in
 Capital and Technology Improvement Expenditure (CTIEP) funds. All
 transfers and appropriations are based on existing funds,
 reimbursements, or revenues. There is an unanticipated General
 Fund impact in an amount not yet determined for operations and
 maintenance costs of two facilities currently not in operation, a park
 within Destination Crenshaw and Taxco Theatre. These costs will be
 addressed through the City budget process at the time the facilities
 are scheduled for completion.

 Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the
 recommendations stated in the February 25, 2026 CAO report,
 attached to the Council File, comply with the City’s Financial Policies
 in that appropriations for funds are limited to available cash balances
 needed to fund ongoing maintenance, programming, project
 shortfalls, and critical operational needs in the current budget year.

 Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA
 debt is a General Fund obligation. The appropriation of MICLA
 funding for the Active Decarbonization Pilot Projects (Item B in the
 February 25, 2026 CAO report, attached to the Council File) would
 cause the City to borrow $0.9 million at an approximate 5.5 percent
 interest rate over a period of 20 years. The reauthorization of 2022-
 23 MICLA funding authority to the City Hall Entry Doors Project (Item




Wednesday - April 15, 2026 - PAGE 26
 KK in the February 25, 2026 CAO report, attached to the Council File)
 would cause the City to borrow $0.6 million at an approximate 5.5
 percent interest rate over a period of 20 years. The reauthorization of
 2022-23 MICLA funding authority to the West Valley Police Station
 Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning Replacement Project (Item
 LL in the February 25, 2026 CAO report, attached to the Council File)
 would cause the City to borrow $1.0 million at an approximate 5.5
 percent interest rate over a period of 20 years. The total estimated
 debt service for these projects is $4.2 million, including interest of
 approximately $1.7 million. During the life of the bonds, the estimated
 average annual debt service is $0.2 million over a period of 20 years.
 Actual interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on market
 conditions at the time of issuance. The CAO cannot fully predict what
 interest rates will be in the future. In accordance with the City's Debt
 Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide
 the evaluation of the affordability for future debt. The debt ceiling for
 non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is
 six percent. The 2025-26 Adopted Budget non-voter-approved debt
 service ratio is 2.40 percent. The issuance of MICLA debt for these
 projects will not cause the City to exceed the six percent non-voter-
 approved debt limit.

 MOTION

 The Two Bit Circus Foundation is a nonprofit organization that creates STEAM (Science,
Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) learning experiences for children in the local community.
The foundation focuses on creating playful, project-based learning experiences that nurture curiosity,
collaboration, and confidence in students of all backgrounds. The Two Bit Circus Foundation would
like to expand their services to other areas of the City, and vacant City property has been identified
at 5975 South Western Avenue that would be ideal for the Foundation to utilize. In order for Two
Bit Circus Foundation to begin operations at this property, a lease agreement is needed.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that Council instruct the Department of General Services, with the
assistance of the City Attorney and City Administrative Officer, to negotiate a non-profit lease with
Two Bit Circus for the use of the City-owned space located at 5975 South Western Avenue.

 I FURTHER MOVE that the Council find, pursuant to Charter Section 37l(e)(l0) and
Administrative Code Section I 0.15(a)(l 0), that the use of competitive bidding would be undesirable
and impractical for the following reasons: (1) the Two Bit Circus Foundation offers a safe and fun
environment for community growth, empowerment, and connection; (2) the space was vacant and
unused by the City and may deteriorate without a primary tenant; and (3) given the Two Bit Circus
Foundation's background and work experience, it is the most qualified entity to operate at this
property.

 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 governmental body or agency
must have first been adopted in the form of a Resolution by the City Council; and

 WHEREAS, copper wire theft continues to be a persistent and escalating issue throughout the City of
Los Angeles, resulting in widespread infrastructure damage, prolonged service outages, and significant threats
to public safety; and

 WHEREAS, in 2024 alone, the Los Angeles Bureau of Street Lighting received approximately 45,000
service requests, with an estimated 40 percent attributed to copper wire theft, placing substantial strain on City
resources and delaying critical repairs; and

 WHEREAS, current California law calculates the value of stolen copper based on its minimal scrap
value, rather than the full cost of repair and replacement, creating a significant gap in accurately reflecting the
true financial hardship to victims, including public agencies and utilities; and

 WI-fEREAS, as a result of this valuation gap, many instances of copper wire theft fall below the $950
felony threshold established under Proposition 47, despite causing tens ofthousands----or even millions-of
dollars in damages to public infrastructure; and

 WHEREAS, organized theft rings often exploit this loophole by committing repeated small-scale
thefts to avoid felony prosecution, thereby perpetuating ongoing damage to critical infrastructure systems; and

 WHEREAS, Senate Bill 1266, introduced by Senator Henry Stern, seeks to address this enforcement
gap by redefining the value of stolen copper wire to include the full cost of repair and replacement, including
labor and equipment, rather than solely relying on scrap value; and

 WHEREAS, SB 1266 would also authorize the aggregation of multiple thefts committed against
critical infrastructure within a 90-day period, all owing prosecutors to more effectively hold repeat offenders
accountable and meet the felony threshold; and

 WHEREAS, by strengthening the legal tools available to law enforcement and prosecutors, SB 1266
aims to deter copper wire theft, disrupt organized theft operations, and better protect public safety and essential
infrastructure;

 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that by the adoption of this Resolution, the City of Los
Angeles hereby includes in its 2025-2026 State Legislative Program SUPPORT of SB 1266 (Stem), which
would require that the valuation of stolen copper wire be calculated based upon the comprehensive cost of
repair and replacement incurred by the victim, encompassing all necessary labor and equipment expenses, as
opposed to the nominal scrap value; and furthermore, authorize the aggregation of multiple thefts targeting
critical infrastructure within a 90-day window to satisfy the felony threshold established by state law.

Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services announced
proposed federal rules and guidance that would eliminate or restrict access to gender-affirming
healthcare for patients under the age of 18 by prohibiting Medicaid reimbursement; and

WHEREAS, these proposed federal actions would coerce hospitals and healthcare providers to
discontinue gender-affirming care for youth, regardless of medical necessity, parental consent, or clinical
judgment, thereby placing vulnerable young people at risk of significant health-related harm; and

WHEREAS, in March 2026, a federal court issued a ruling blocking the attempted federal action led by
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to restrict access to gender-affirming healthcare for minors, finding that such
action exceeded legal authority and failed to comply with required rulemaking procedures; and

WHEREAS, the City of Los Angeles has a longstanding commitment to protecting LGBTQIA+ residents
and visitors through policies, programs, and City-sponsored initiatives that affirm dignity, safety, and
access to essential services; and

WHEREAS, the City has an obligation to use all lawful means available to protect public health, prevent

motivated federal actions.

 AD HOC COMMITTEE ON THE 2028
 MOTION OLYMPIC AND PARAOLYMPIC GAMES
The 2028 Olympic & Paralympic Games will be one of the largest sporting events in history.
They will bring more than 15,000 elite athletes and millions of visitors to Los Angeles,
generating hundreds of contract opportunities across sectors such as construction, hospitality,
logistics, electronics, apparel, and transportation. The economic stakes for our local businesses
are enormous, and the City's expectations have been clear.

Through multiple engagements with LA28, the City has consistently called for a formal, written
commitment in the procurement plan establishing a tiered vendor preference structure: City of
Los Angeles businesses first, followed by Los Angeles County, and then the broader five-county
region. As the public entity bearing primary financial liability for the Games, the City has both a
responsibility and a right to ensure that the Games is a net positive to the City's economy and
that its small businesses are first in line to benefit.

In its Impact and Sustainability report, LA28 has pledged to direct 75% of addressable spend to
Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Orange, Ventura and Riverside counties and 25% to small
businesses. However, LA28's procurement plan falls significantly short of community
expectations to meaningfully support businesses within the City of Los Angeles through LA28
procurement opportunities.It provides no transparency on total addressable spend, no
sector-specific allocations, and no anticipated contract values. Without clear accountability
measures, large multinational firms could secure the majority of funding, leaving local
businesses with only a small share of the overall economic benefit.

Additionally, the City Council has previously adopted and transmitted several formal requests
related to procurement, equity, and local participation through Council Files 15-0989-S51,
15-0989-S52, 15-0989-S58, 15-0989-S59, and 15-0989-S62. It remains unclear to what extent
these directives have been incorporated into LA28's procurement plan or implementation
strategy.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the CLA and BCA review Council Files 15-0989-S51, 15-0989-S52,
15-0989-S58, 15-0989-S59, and 15-0989-S62, mandating that LA28 prioritize City of Los
Angeles businesses, establish transparent procurement and contracting protocols while
providing comprehensive quarterly reports and report on:
 1. The extent to which the policies, directives, and requests contained within these Council
 actions have been incorporated into LA28's procurement plan;
 2. The current status of implementation of these directives, including measurable outcomes
 where available;
 3. Any gaps between previous Council action and LA28 execution.

I FURTHER MOVE that the CLA, in coordination with BCA, provide a separate report with
recommendations for policy, reporting, and enforcement mechanisms that the City Council may
pursue~protect the City's financial and economic interests, and to ensure that LA28

APR 1/5~
procurement commitments result in measurable, transparent, and equitable economic benefits
for City of Los Angeles businesses.

 MOTION T~}\_NSPORTATIOf J

 E-bikes and e-motos offer significant benefits to the individual and society, including improved
 cardiovascular health, reduced commuting costs, and eco-friendly transportation. Key perks
 include easy parking, improved mental well-being, ability to move children, groceries, or cargo,
 and greater accessibility for older riders or those with injuries. 66% of trips taken every day in the
 City of Los Angeles are 5 miles or less and e-bikes and e-motos provide a non-car transportation
 mode for Angelenos to get around.

 According to UCLA's Department of Transportation, studies have shown that people who ride e-
 bikes do it often and for farther distances, enabling moderate exercise. Modest activity (say 30
 minutes a day of movement) helps with enhanced physical fitness, improved cardiovascular
 function, muscle strengthening, reduced inflammation, improved mental health like better mood
 and lower stress, and enriched sleep quality. Being able to go faster also makes e-biking safer, as
 riders are traveling more at the speed of traffic compared to vehicles.

 Crashes involving electric mopeds and electric motorcycles in Los Angeles and the surrounding
 Southern California region have surged recently, leading to increased law enforcement crackdowns
 and a rise in emergency room visits. Local authorities report a significant increase in trauma cases,
 including head injuries and fractures , particularly among juvenile riders. Just recently in March of
 2026 a teenager on a street illegal electric motorcycle crashed into an elderly pedestrian, gravely
 injuring her.

 E-bikes are classified into three main categories based on speed and motor assistance type,
 primarily to define where they can be legally ridden. Class 1 is pedal-assist only up to 20 mph.
 Class 2 includes a throttle and pedal-assist, also capped at 20 mph. Class 3 is pedal-assist only,
 with speeds up to 28 mph. Class 1 and 2 are usually allowed on bike paths and conventional bicycle
 infrastructure, while Class 3 is typically restricted to road use and requires riders to be 16 or older.
 All Class 3 riders must wear helmets, while Class 1 and 2 riders under 18 are required to wear
 helmets.

 Electric motos and mopeds, on the other hand, are not street legal out of the box. They are marketed
 to teens and parents of teens as a fun, efficient way to get around, but they often lack the required
 elements to make them legal, such as tum signals, proper lights, and license plates. Additionally,
 they require that riders have a Ml (motorcycle) license, which is not disclosed to those purchasing
 them. Nearly all reported crashes are from illegal devices, not legal e-bikes.

 Citing near misses, traumatic injuries and fatal crashes, state lawmakers have introduced a flurry
 of bills to regulate e-bikes and e-motos. At least nine bills are making their way through the
 Legislature this session, each proposing new rules and safety precautions. It is important for the
 City to monitor and advocate for changes at the state level, while thoughtfully considering local
 regulations to protect the safety and welfare of Angelenos.

 WE THEREFORE MOVE to INSTRUCT the Department of Transportation, with the assistance
 of the City of Los Angeles Bicycle Advisory Committee, the City Attorney's Office, the Los
 Angeles Police Department, the Bureau of Street Services, and Metro, to report back within 90
 days with recommendations to regulate e-bikes, e-motos and electric mopeds, that may include:
 • Requiring all e-bikes, e-motos and electric mopeds in the City of Los Angeles to meet all
 legal standards and requirements;
 • Banning the sale or resale of e-bikes, e-motos and electric mopeds that do not meet the
 legal standards and requirements;
 • Banning the conversion or assisting in the conversion of e-bikes to a higher class or e-moto
 or electric moped;
 • Banning the sale of e-motos or electric mopeds which are not street legal out of the box
 and/or which require a Ml driver's license to be operated legally;
 • Requiring educational learning for all riders under 18 or who do not have a driver's license;
 and,
 • Rules for the storage and charging of e-bikes, e-motos and electric mopeds to prevent
 hazardous waste and battery fires.

WE FURTHER MOVE to INSTRUCT the Chief Legislative Analyst to report back on pending
state legislation related to e-bikes, e-motos, and similar mobility devices (e.g. AB 1492, AB 1557,
AB 1569, AB 1614, AB 2346, AB 2595, and SB 1167) and provide recommendations and draft
resolutions of support for those bills that are in the interest of the safety and welfare of the residents
of the City of Los Angeles.

WE FURTHER MOVE to REQUEST the Los Angeles Police Commission, with the assistance
of the LAPD and the City Attorney' s Office, to require the annual publication of data one-bike, e-
moto and electric moped collisions, injuries, and deaths that includes enough identifying
information to allow policy makers to make any necessary adjustments to increase the safety and
welfare of our residents.
