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




 Friday - April 1, 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.

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.

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.

 as to form.


 Fiscal Impact Statement: The City Attorney reports that each fiscal year,
 the City Administrative Officer typically undertakes eight to ten bond
 transactions, plus a few special projects or matters unrelated to a particular
 transaction, such as responding to an audit request from the Internal
 Revenue Service or post-issuance compliance related matters. Aggregate
 counsel fees for a bond transaction typically range between $75,000 and
 $150,000. Therefore, the aggregate amount to be expended on bond-
 related legal services over the next three to five years is not expected to
 exceed $10 million. Legal counsel services provided in connection to a
 bond issuance will be paid from bond proceeds. If legal services are
 required after the completion of a bond transaction or with respect to issues
 that are unrelated to a particular bond transaction, the firm will be paid from
 available funds within the Capital Finance Administration Fund or Special
 Funds, as appropriate, at the rates specified in the proposals or another
 negotiated rate.

 the City Administrative Officer typically undertakes eight to ten bond

 transaction, such as responding to an audit request from the Internal

 bond issuance will be paid from bond proceeds. If legal services are
 required after the completion of a bond transaction or with respect to issues

 will not have any fiscal impact on RAP’s General Fund, as costs associated
 with the installation and maintenance of the Military Panels will be funded
 entirely by Your Park at no expense to RAP, and funded through charitable
 contributions from the various donations received by Your Park from the
 public. The future maintenance of Veterans Gardens will be funded and
 performed by Your Park through licensed landscaping contractors and

 required maintenance beyond the term of the Maintenance Agreement will
 be addressed through the Park’s existing maintenance budget, annual
 budget process, and possible future supplemental funding that may be
 provided by Your Park.
 The Board further reports that relative to Board Report No. 21-131, the
 approval of the Amended Agreement and the Maintenance Agreement,
 and the acceptance of the park improvements at Veterans Gardens, will not
 have any fiscal impact on RAP’s General Fund, as costs associated with
 the construction, installation, and maintenance of the improvements will be
 funded entirely by Your Park at no expense to RAP, and funded through
 a charitable contribution from the American Legion Post 283 and various
 donations from the public. The future maintenance of Veterans Gardens
 beyond the term of the Maintenance Agreement will be addressed through
 Palisades Park’s existing maintenance budget, annual budget process,
 and possible future supplemental funding that may be provided by Your
 Park.

 RESOLUTION
 PLANNING &LAND USE MANAGEMENT
 WHEREAS, the restaurant and hospitality industry is a vitally important part of the City's
 economy, employing 380,000 and generating more than $200 million in tax revenues to the City prior to
 the COVID-19 pandemic; and

 WHEREAS, under the Los Angeles Municipal Code, a restaurant can only be permitted to sell
 alcohol by obtaining a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) or meeting the eligibility requirements for a
 ..,.
I

~ Conditional Use Exception (CUE); and

 WHEREAS, the CUP process can often be time-consuming and costly for both applicants and City
 staff and resources, hindering entrepreneurs' ability to create or expand their businesses; and

 WHEREAS, very few restaurants are eligible for or have utilized the CUE process; and

 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 livelihoods of those living and working in the City; and

 WHEREAS, the City intends to create a new streamlined process known as the Restaurant
 Beverage Program for sit-down restaurants only as an alternative to the CUP and CUE process to remove
 the financial burden and time constraints and promote economic development; and

 WHEREAS, this ordinance will contain more and stricter standards than those typically imposed
 during the CUP or CUE process and require participating restaurants to be subject to enforcement
 procedures; and

 WHEREAS, the City has undertaken an environmental review of the proposed provisions and
 found that the Program will not have a significant effect on the environment (ENV-2018-4661-ND), and
 further found that aspects of the proposed regulatory relief are exempt from environmental review (ENV -
 2020-3154-CE); and

 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that by the adoption of this Resolution, the Council
 hereby activates a new streamlined permitting land use regulatory process, the Restaurant Beverage
 Program, that shall be in force and full effect in the geographical boundaries attached in Exhibit A.

 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that based on the findings outlined in Exhibit B relative to the
 geographic boundaries found in Exhibit A maps, the Restaurant Beverage Program is in conformity with
 public necessity, convenience, general welfare, and good zoning practice.
1. The Restaurant Beverage Program (RBP) will provide a public necessity within the
 areas mapped in Exhibit A by removing financial barriers for sit-down restaurants
 and promoting economic development, in light of the financial impacts associated
 with the COVID-19 pandemic.

 The restaurant and hospitality industry is an important part of the City's economy,
 employing more than 380,000 people and generating more than $200 million in tax
 revenue to the City during pre-pandemic levels. The proposed Ordinance will preserve
 and strengthen a viable sector of the City's economy by creating the RBP, which will
 reduce the costs and time for sit-down restaurants in the mapped areas to obtain City
 approval to serve alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption, while subjecting them to
 more than 50 provisions. Alcohol service provides a substation portion of restaurants'
 revenue and often make or break their viability as a business, however, restaurants with
 alcohol sales must meet both state and local regulations for serving alcohol. The RBP will
 offer an administrative clearance process to allow the sale of alcohol in sit-down
 restaurants with an operating kitchen and a full menu. In addition, new restaurants with
 alcohol service under the RBP will be subject to enforcement measures and security
 standards. This in-turn will provide long-term financial incentives as it will bolster the
 opening of new restaurants, enable the hiring of new employees, and create more vibrant
 neighborhoods.

 The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent stay-at-home and indoor restrictions have
 presented unprecedented financial challenges to sit-down restaurants throughout the City,
 namely those located within the mapped areas. A simpler, more predictable, less costly
 process to serve alcoholic beverages would ease some of the burdens placed on impacted
 restaurants, giving them a boost and reducing the time needed for them to re-open and
 start hiring people. As such, the RBP will create a service that is beneficial to the
 community, City, and region mapped by reducing the amount of entry barriers for new
 local restaurants.

2. The RBP will provide a public convenience within the areas mapped in Exhibit A by
 accommodating the demand for an amenity that will serve residents, workers,
 employees, and visitors.

 A variety of uses, including sit-down restaurants, are necessary for the conservation,
 development, and success of a vibrant neighborhood. The proposed RBP reflects a shift
 in how the City will process alcohol requests for eligible sit-down restaurants. As such, the
 RBP will provide local sit-down restaurants with a boost, which will allow them to open
 quicker, expand, hire employees, and become an economically viable business. By
 creating a consistent and streamlined review of alcohol requests, the RBP will create more
 vibrant neighborhoods that will benefit employees, local residents, and visitors leading to
 the growth of regulated sit-down restaurants within the mapped areas, which are planned
 and zoned for commercial uses such as restaurants.
 On-site alcohol service incidental to food service is an amenity that is often expected in
 bona fide sit-down restaurants. The local community, employees, patrons of adjacent
 commercial uses, and the residents in the neighborhood will be able to utilize the benefits
 of having on-site sit-down restaurants and alcohol service nearby. Furthermore, the RBP
 incorporates more than 50 operating standards to ensure that the alcohol service will not
 be disruptive to the community.

3. The RBP contains more than 50 provisions to ensure that it will not adversely affect
 the welfare of the areas mapped in Exhibit A.

 The RBP's provisions are intended to protect the public health, welfare, and safety of the
 communities within the mapped areas. The City is establishing operational and enforcing
 policies via the RBP to regulate alcohol service in eligible sit-down restaurants. Therefore,
 alcohol service under the RBP must be incidental to food service on-site consumption.
 This means that high-impact uses such as bars, nightclubs, and liquor stores will not be
 eligible under the RBP and must obtain a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Eligible
 restaurants will not be allowed to have dancing, live entertainment, pool tables, and
 portable bars. Bar-like practices, such as minimum drink purchase, admission charges,
 and age limitations, will also be prohibited.

 Operating standards will ensure that impacts to the community, such as noise, will be kept
 at a minimum. The RBP will prohibit the use of television monitors and speakers in outdoor
 areas. Restaurants will also be required to remove graffiti, clean debris and litter, maintain
 an electronic age verification device, and respond to patron complaints in a timely manner.
 As a means of establishing additional safety policies, the RBP contains interior and
 exterior lighting requirements and will require restaurants to install and maintain a camera
 surveillance system in operation at all times. In addition, all employees involved with the
 sale of alcohol will be subject to regulatory safety practices such as enrolling in an alcohol
 safety training program offered by the Los Angeles Police Department and/or the
 California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. Restaurants that repeatedly violate
 the RBP's provisions will be suspended from the Program and be required to obtain a
 CUP to continue to sell alcohol.

 Lastly, the RBP or proposed Ordinance does not authorize any new construction, nor
 result in construction activities that would change the size, height, or other significant
 features of existing buildings and therefore not degrade adjacent properties, the
 surrounding neighborhood, or the public health, welfare, and safety of the public at large.
 Therefore, the RBP, the proposed Ordinance, operations, and other significant features
 will be compatible with and not adversely affect or degrade adjacent properties, the
 surrounding neighborhood, or the public health, welfare, and safety of the mapped areas.

4. The RBP will follow good zoning practices by encouraging economic development
 in the areas mapped while limiting the impact of commercial activity on residential
 areas and other sensitive uses through st~ict provisions.
The mapped areas are well suited for sit-down restaurants that offer alcohol service, which
are planned and zoned for commercial uses such as restaurants. This will promote
livability and convenience for residents and employees, promote a variety of uses, and
strengthen the employment and amenity base of the mapped areas. As such, the RBP
substantially conforms to the purpose, intent, and provisions of the General Plan, the
applicable community plan, and any specific plan.

At the same time, the RBP serves the purpose of imposing provisions aimed at limiting
impacts to surrounding neighbors, including residential areas and other sensitive uses.
The RBP will only be applicable in specific commercial and manufacturing zones where
alcohol service is currently allowed through a CUP. In addition, the RBP includes
numerous operational restrictions related to indoor and outdoor seating, allowed activities,
and bar-like practices to limit noise and other impacts. Additional provisions concerning
operations, security, monitoring, and enforcement are included. Any changes to the mode
of operations of the restaurant, including hours of operation and seating, will not be
permitted. Therefore, the RBP will follow good zoning practices by encouraging economic
development while limiting the impact of commercial activity on nearby residential areas
and other sensitive uses through strict and enforcing provisions.

 RULES, ELECTIONS, INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS
 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 governmental
 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, in December of 2020, Angelo Quinto, a Navy veteran from Northern
California, was tragically killed by police. Angelo had been suffering from a mental health episode
when his family called the police for help with de-escalating the situation. While Angelo lay face
down and bloodied with handcuffs behind his back, a responding officer knelt on Angelo's neck
for at least four and a half minutes while another officer restrained his legs. Angelo lost and never
regained consciousness - he died in a hospital three days later; and

 WHEREAS, the Contra Costa County Coroner's Office rnled that Angelo's death was the
result of "excited delirium." This diagnosis is both unclear and controversial. Primarily, the term
is often attributed to sudden unexplained deaths of individuals while in police custody. In other
words, it provides a justification for excessive use of force by police; and

 WHEREAS, Angelo's death has garnered great attention and increased scrutiny on
diagnoses used to shield and absolve officers from accountability. According to a 2020 study by
the Oregon Health & Science University School of Medicine, published cases of excited delirium
rarely, if ever, happen independently of police involvement. Additionally, in July of 2021, the
American Medical Association adopted a new policy opposing the "excited delirium" diagnosis.
Specifically, their position is that the "current evidence does not support 'excited delirium' as an
official diagnosis." Furthermore, other recognized organizations, like the National Institute of
Health, note that much more research must be discovered in this area; and

 WHEREAS, the blanket diagnosis has, in part, reinvigorated the need for greater
transparency in the investigation medical examination process. It has also led to a goal of
eliminating potential conflicts of interest in law enforcement. This perception of bias should be
remedied by ensuring that all local death investigations are conducted independently and
objectively by an independent Medical Examiner or Coroner's Office that is separate from the
Sheriffs Office; and

 WHEREAS, all 58 counties in California have a sheriffs department, but only ten counties
have a separate coroner or medical examiner's office. Currently, state law does not require a sheriff
to have any medical background or certification to assume the duties of a coroner. California is
also only one of three states that allows counties to combine the offices of the coroner and sheriff, G')
which increases the potential for conflicts of interest in law enforcement handling the duties of the
  coroner. Counties like Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Francisco have already separated the
  duties of the coroner from the sheriff. Their coroners are independent medical examiners, who are
  required to be licensed physicians and surgeons duly qualified as a specialist in pathology; and

 WHEREAS, Section 24304.1. of the Government Code permits County Boards of
  Supervisors to consolidate the duties of certain county offices; including, but not limited to the
  sheriff and the coroner; and

 WHEREAS, currently, state law does not require a sheriff to have any medical background
  or certification to assume the duties of a coroner, in contrast to independent medical examiners,
  who are required to be a licensed physician and surgeon duly qualified as a specialist in pathology;
  and

 WHEREAS, a consistent statewide policy towards independent coroner's offices would
  help to ensure that medical examinations and investigations of sudden, violent, or
  unexplained/suspicious deaths are conducted objectively; and

 WHEREAS, AB 1608 would separate the duties of the coroner from the duties of the
  sheriff, strengthening the medical examination process, thereby eliminating perceived and actual
  conflicts of interest and increasing accountability and transparency when determining the cause of
  death:

 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, with the concurrence of the Mayor, that by
  the adoption of this Resolution, the City of Los Angeles hereby includes in its 2021 - 2022 State
  Legislative Program SUPPORT for AB 1608 (Gipson) 1608 which seeks to ensure that local death
  investigations are conducted independently and objectively, reducing any perception of biased
  investigative medical examinations when determining the cause of death of an individual,
  including those in custody.

 MOTION

 Per State law (California Mitigation Fee Act, Government Code Section, 66000-66025), local
  governments can charge development project applicants development impact fees to defray the costs of
  additional public facilities needed related to a development project.

 On November 5, 2015, the Controller released a report (CF 15-1311), entitled 'Audit of
  Development Impact Fees,' which found that the City could have collected more in Development Impact
  Fees in comparison to the amount collected by other cities, and that we need to vastly improve our
  administration, oversight, and collection of these fees. The audit recommended that the City establish a
  comprehensive impact fee program and that one department be designated to take responsibility for making
  sure that funds are properly spent.

 On November 10, 2015 a Motion (CF 15-1311-Sl), was introduced instructing the Planning
  Department to prepare a report on the feasibility of managing the Development Impact Fees on a citywide
  basis in accordance with the recommendation of the Controller's report/audit. In response to the Motion's
  directive, on May 6, 2016, the Planning Department submitted the requested report with recommendations
  to: (1) designate the Planning Department as the appropriate department to manage Development Impact
  Fees citywide; and (2) a request in the amount of $1.9 million to fund various position
  authorities/contractual services to support a new work program in the Planning Department.

 Inasmuch as the Planning Department's recommendations have not yet been considered by the City
  Council in response to the Controller's Development Impact Fees audit, it is of utmost importance to
  understand what has changed, if anything, in the collection process, the amounts collected, and whether the
  Planning Department's recommendations are still relevant today.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council instruct the Planning Department, to prepare a report
  with recommendations in response to the November 5, 2015 City Controller report, 'Audit ofDevelopment
  Impact Fees' (CF 15-1311), and an update to its May 6, 2016 report and recommendations (CF 15-1311-
  S 1), relative to the feasibility of managing the collection of Development Impact Fees for all City
  departments.
