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


Telecommunication Relay Services


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


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


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

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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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

require you to register as a lobbyist and report your activity. See Los Angeles Municipal Code 48.01 et seq. More

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

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.

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.

 located at 638 South Beacon Street, Suite 551.

 Recommendation for Council action:
 AUTHORIZE the Department of General Services (GSD) negotiate and
 execute a non-profit lease agreement between the City and
 Congresswoman Nannette Diaz Barragan of the California 44th




 Tuesday - November 14, 2023 - PAGE 38
 Congressional District for office space in the San Pedro City Hall located
 at 638 South Beacon Street, Suite 551. The term of the lease agreement
 is for two years with two four-year options to extend at the City's sole
 discretion. The lease agreement is coterminous with the
 Congresswoman's elected term which currently ends on January 3, 2025,
 subject to re-election as detailed in the Municipal Facilities Committee
 (MFC) report attached to the Council file.



 Fiscal Impact Statement: The MFC reports that there is no General Fund
 impact as there is no revenue generated from this lease. The non-profit
 lessee will be responsible for maintaining their office space including any
 necessary improvements, alterations, maintenance, and repairs. The City
 will be responsible for overall maintenance of the building, custodial
 services, heating ventilation and air conditioning, and utilities.

 costs such as furniture, moving, and communication expenses will be
 addressed through Council District 15's discretionary funds. A
 reconciliation of the Citywide Leasing Account will be provided to the
 MFC as part of a subsequent Citywide Leasing Quarterly Status Report,
 with any potential year-end shortfalls to be reported to Council through the
 Financial Status Report. Future annual leasing costs will need to be

 • --~--.:..·=- MOTION SPEC1Al1
On Saturday November 11, 2023, shortly after midnight, a fire broke out under the 10 Freeway in
Downtown Los Angeles, quickly consuming a pallet yard and several trailers before spreading to an
adjacent facility. The 10 freeway sustained damage so catastrophic that the freeway is now shut down
indefinitely between Alameda Street and the East LA connector.

While the freeway closure will have regional impacts on commerce and travel, impacts to the communities
of Downtown and Boyle Heights will be substantial. Already, cars and trucks are using local streets to
bypass the closure, causing intense traffic congestion and air pollution. Businesses are struggling with
deliveries, workers' commutes are getting even longer, and residential neighborhoods are being subjected
to semi-truck traffic, bringing associated emissions and pollutants even closer to parks, homes, and
schools.

The City Administrative Officer has instructed alt city departments to provide a cost estimate for damages
and anticipated expenses related to the fire. However, the City must also respond with urgency to
alleviate secondary and tertiary impacts to our communities. This includes providing assistance to
impacted local businesses, minimizing traffic on local streets, and mitigating air quality impacts.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council determine, as provided in section 54954.2(b)(2) of the
Government Code, and pursuant to Rule 23 of the Rules of the City Council, that pursuant to state law
there is a need to take immediate action on this matter AND that the need for action came to the attention
of the City subsequent to the posting of the agenda for today's Council meeting.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Bureau of Street Services be INSTRUCTED to evaluate the existing
pavement condition on all streets impacted by detoured freeway traffic in order to establish a baseline
condition, and to monitor these streets throughout the closure to seek future reimbursement for repairs
from the state or federal government.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Department of 1ransportation be INSTRUCTED to track the impacts on local
streets affected by detoured freeway traffic including but not limited to travel time, transit usage,
congestion, and safety, and to report back on physical improvements, signage, local closures, or other
measures necessary to facilitate effective traffic flow and minimize cut-through traffic.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Bureau of Street Lighting be INSTRUCTED to work with the South Coast Air
Quality Management District to install additional air quality monitoring devices along the freeway detour
routes to document changes in local air quality and identify rapid mitigation measures to reduce lhe
effects of increased air pollution on surrounding communities.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Economic and Workforce Development Department be INSTRUCTED to
reach out to businesses directly and indirectly affected by the fire and associated street detours to assess
any impacts on local businesses' ability to operate, and to identify local, state, and federal resources to
mitigate these impacts.

El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument marks the birthplace of Los Angeles
with free museums, exhibits, and the Olvera Street Marketplace. Although El Pueblo is
home to several mature trees, shade remains a scarce resource. The puestos and the
buildings around El Pueblo have awnings to provide shade to the small businesses and
the patrons who patronize them. Since 2009, awnings have only been replaced on a
case by case basis by the merchants themselves as the El Pueblo department is unable
to pay for new awnings with their yearly budget. Presently, the awnings are in various
stages of disrepair and in need of replacement. Rather than replace awnings
individually, replacing all of the shade awnings at once will provide a uniform aesthetic
and reliable shade for the merchants and visitors. Staff at El Pueblo have received a
quote that puts the cost of replacement at approximately $40,000.

I THEREFORE MOVE to transfer $40,000 from AB 1290 Fund No. 53P, Account No.

instructions, including any new instructions, in order to effectuate the intent of this

 The Kaiser Foundation Health Plan will be opening its new Watts Medical Office Building
and Children's Learning Center at 1462-1465 East 103 rd Street in Watts in the upcoming weeks.
This property is adjacent to the Watts Municipal Building, which houses a CD 15 field office. As
part of its efforts to provide enhance connnunity benefits from its new development, Kaiser has
approached the City and asked for authorization to make enhancements to the City-owned property
for the benefit to the community. These enhancements include the installation of a zero-

the western edge of the Watts Municipal Building. Kaiser will undertake these improvements at
their sole cost. In order to facilitate these improvements, the City should grant Kaiser any permit
or right of entry required for their workers to access the site and construct the improvements.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the Department of General Service be authorized to grant a
permit and/or temporary Right of Entry to the Watts Municipal Building, located at 1513 East
103rd Street, Los Angeles CA 90002, to the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (Kaiser), in order to
allow Kaiser to complete landscaping and other improvements on the Watts Municipal Building

 The City owns a property at 9402-9422 South Broadway, Los A·ngeles, CA (the "Site"). The City,
through the Economic and Workforce Development Department (EWDD), previously entered into an
Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) with 948, LLC ("Developer"), dated August 9, 2018 to
establish the process and standards for the negotiation by the City and the Developer of one or more
agreements for the development of the Project The City determined that the Site is suitable for sale as
vacant land and directed EWDD to enter into an Agreement with the Developer (C.F. No. l l-0054-S3).
The Developer plans to develop the Site as a mixed-use project consisting of 180 residential units, 11
percent of which are affordable housing and a full-service grocery store operated by ALDI. The
Agreement has previously been extended by amendment and remains current

 The City was recently awarded an Equitable Community Revitalization Grant (ECRG) by the
Department of Toxic Substances' Office of Brownfields (DTSC) to provide services related to the site
characterization, testing and removal action workplan for the Site. Work has proceeded under that grant
and is approximately 80 percent complete. Additional environmental contamination has been identified
through the site investigation, and the project team is working to identify additional sources of funding.

 In October 2023, the Governor signed AB 480 into law, which granted an extension though 2027
to complete the disposition of City-owned land for projects such as this Site under the Surplus Land Act.
As a result, the ENA must be extended.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that City Council authorize the Economic and Workforce Development
Department to amend the Exc1usive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) with 948, LLC, relative to the
development of the City-owned property located at 9402-9422 South Broadway, in order to extend the
term of the ENA to December 31, 2024, with four potential future extensions of 6 months each, subject to

 HOUSING & HOMELESSNESS
 MOTION


Measure United to House LA (ULA) was drafted by homeless service providers, affordable
housing nonprofits, labor unions, and renters' rights groups to provide long-term funding to
increase affordable housing in Los Angeles and to provide resources to tenants at risk of
homelessness, passing with 58% voter approval. Through the ULA Interim Guidelines, five
interim programs have been approved to disburse $30.4M fn Short-Team Emergency Rental
Assistance, $56.8M towards the Accelerator Plus program which will generate up to 700 new
affordable housing units, $23M towards eviction defense and prevention and $11 M toward
protections from tenant harassment. All but $11 M (currently allocated to a still-developing
Income Support for At-Risk, Rent-Burdened Senior and Persons with Disabilities program), of
the $150M have been programmed and will be expended by the end of Fiscal Year 23-24.

As of September 30, 2023, the total ULA revenues collected since April 1, 2023 is$ 99.7
million. It is anticipated revenues from the United to House Los Angeles Documentary Transfer
Tax will exceed the $150 million budgeted forfiscal year 2023-24, and further collaboration and
input is needed from the ULA Citizen Oversight Committee (COC) to advise the City with
recommendations on additional revenues collected for future spending and the Los Angeles
Housing Department is directed to consult with community-based organizations, advocacy
groups and experts in the field, including the authors of the ballot measure (CF 23-0038). With
appeals likely rulings in favor of the City in both state and federal court, and with a measure on
the November 2024 ballot that would potentially invalidate ULA, how prospective ULA
revenues are collected and spent should be intentional to ensure maximum flexibility while
minimizing the risk.


I THEREFORE MOVE to instruct the Chief Legislative Analyst (CLA) and the City Administrative
Officer (CAO), with the assistance of the Los Angeles Housing Department, to report back
within 60 days with recommendations on ULA revenues collected above the $150 million
approved in the Fiscal Year 23-24 budget and how revenues can be disbursed in a manner
consistent with the ULA Ordinance and City financial policies.


I FURTHER MOVE to request the ULA COC, with the assistance of the Los Angeles Housing
Department, to provide recommendations for program allocations above $150 million for Fiscal
Year 2023-24 and for Fiscal Year 2024-25. Q

 HOUSING & HOMELESSNESS
 MOTION

 According to the 2023 Great Los Angeles Homeless Count, on any given night there are over 46,000
 people experiencing homelessness in the City of Los Angeles - and over 75,000 countywide. This is
 despite five consecutive years of the homelessness services and rehousing system maklng over
 20,000 permanent housing placements a year. While that is evidence of the impact of the historic
 investments made possible by voter-backed measures such as HHH, H, and ULA, the reality facing the
 City is that every day renters are falling into homelessness faster than our system can rehouse them.

 Since before the pandemic, the housing crisis has been the main driver of increasing homelessness
 across the City. Further, the COVID-19 state of emergency created an unprecedented threat to not only
 the health of all Angelenos, but to the ability of housed families to stay in their homes. Fortunately, due
 to extensive financial investments and policy interventions at the federal, state, and local levels, Los
 Angeles was able to ensure thousands of vulnerable tenants remain in their homes and off the streets.
 However, while the public health risk of COVID-19 continues to slowly dissipate, the negative economic
 impacts of the pandemic continue to be felt by many, especially low-income renters who have until
 February 1, 2024 to pay back any rent owed from October 1, 2021 to January 31, 2023. On that same
 date, rent stabilized units are slated to see an increase in rent, stacking an additional financial burden
 to already over-prescribed tenants.

 There have been multiple efforts put forward by the City Council in the last year to gather and report on
 data regarding money deployed and residents assisted to keep people housed. Most recently, City
 Council passed the development of a dashboard to make clear the number of and reasons for evictions
 being filed across the city, as well as "Know Your Rights" information for tenants and the ability to file
 complaints with the LA Housing Department (CF 23-0921 ). In January of this year, the City Council
 passed a series of tenant protections, and with it requested information on how to support landlords
 who are most impacted by rental arrears due, as well as recommendations on the design of programs
 that are best suited for small landlords (CF 21-0042-S3). Information previously requested is imperative
 to build a holistic picture of the impending crisis.

 If we are to stop the eviction-to-homelessness pipeline, we need bold policy interventions that prevent
 people from being pushed out of their homes and onto City streets. These policies must be driven by
 data and information that accurately frames the scale of this state of emergency as we approach
 looming deadlines that could displace thousands of families and push as many onto the streets.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the Los Angeles Housing Department (LAHD) to
 report back in 30 days with the following information:
 • Amount of rental debt that is due on February 1, 2024 and amount owed from each month
 starting in March 2020;
 • Amount of rental arrears that have been brought current to September 30, 2021, as well as
 estimated amounts remaining in rental arrears through that time period;
 • A breakdown of the ULA rental assistance program including:
 o Amount of rental debt that was cleared through the ULA assistance program deployed in
 October of 2023, broken down by council district and amount of rent owed;
 o Amount of rental debt not addressed by the ULA assistance program based on
 applications received broken down by council district and amount of rent owed;




PK NOV 142023
 o Breakdown of all applications received for ULA rental assistance by council district and
 amount owed, as well as a comparison of where and how much money was deployed;
 and,
 • Amount of rent debt owed to small landlords (owning 4 units or fewer).

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council instruct LAHD with support from the City Administrative Officer
(CAO} to report back in 30 days with the following information:
 • Successes and lessons learned from the Public Information Campaign launched in preparation
 for the August 1, 2023 rental arrears deadline;
 • Costs associated with the multiple outreach campaigns launched by LAHD and the Mayor's
 Office; and,
 • Information on the number of people reached through outreach campaigns, including the
 number of referrals to the Stay Housed LA Program and partnered legal support groups.

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council instruct LAHD with assistance from the City Attorney to report
back in 30 days with the following information;
 • Number of evictions that have been filed monthly per council district starting on February 1,
 2023; and,
 • Breakdown of monthly evictions filed due to nonpayment of rent, and average amount owed per
 month by number of bedrooms in the unit starting on February 1, 2023.

 MOTION DISABILITY

Passed by Congress in 1984, The Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) is the single largest source of
funding nationwide for victim and• survivor services, supporting organizations in the areas of
Domestic and Intimate Partner Violence (DV/IPV), sexual assault, human trafficking, child
abuse, and elder abuse.

California is the largest recipient of VOCA funding. In FY 21-22, VOCA funding administered by
the Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) provided 354,227 emergency shelter
nights• to DV survivors and their families, vital information about the criminal justice process to
over 275,270 Californians, services to 46,461 individuals experiencing sexual violence through
Rape Crisis Centers, comprehensive services to 15,156 elder abuse victims and over 1,138
human trafficking survivors, and housing to 17,142 DV/lPV survivors through the Domestic
Violence Housing First program, among other vital and life-saving programs.

Due to the diminishing of the Crime Victims Fund - which is paid for by settlements in federal
court cases - and the current instability in Congress, there is a projected $700 million reduction
in VOCA funding for FY 2024-2025, representing a 41 % decrease. This proposed cut would
lead to a loss of $160 million for California.

The potential impacts of this funding shortfall would be nothing short of catastrophic, as
numerous programs and positions are exclusively funded by VOCA. Cal OES's VOCA Steering
Committee, in its August 2023 meeting, recommended absent a reversal in the funding shortfall,
a reduction in competitive program funding by 50% in the next grant cycle and all other
subrecipients by 30% in FY 24-25.

It is imperative that both state and federal officials work swiftly to address this funding gap, as it
will directly lead to an increase in homelessness amongst survivors and other vulnerable
communities, reduce already limited resources and programs, and put safety and stability
further out of reach for more Angelenos.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council direct the Community Investment for Families
Department (CIFD), with requested support from the Domestic Violence Alliance (OVA) and the
Domestic Violence Council (DVC), report back in 60 days on the impacts of the projected
Victims of Crimes Act (VOCA) funding cuts on victim and survivor services - including domestic
and intimate partner violence (DV/IPV), sexual assault, human trafficking, child abuse, and elder
abuse - in the City of Los Angeles;

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council direct CIFD to report back, subsequent to the release
of the Governor's proposed FY 2024-2025 budget, with a proposed contingency plan for
preserving current funding levels for victim and survivor services operating within the City of Los
Angeles;

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council direct the Chief Legislative Analyst (CLA) to draft a
resolution opposing the proposed $700 million cut to VOCA in the FY 2024-2025 federal budget
and a resolution in support of the Governor and California State Legislature earmarking $200
million in ongoing funding for victim and survivor services in the state FY 2024-2025 budget;
 ~QV 1 ~ ioii
I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council direct the CLA to request that the City's lobbyists in
Sacramento and Washington, D.C. actively engage lawmakers on the importance of preserving
and expanding funding for victim and survivor services;

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council direct the CLA to formally request that the Los Angeles
state legislative delegation make the securing of $200 million in ongoing funding for victim and
survivor services an official priority for the 2024 Legislative Session.

 MOTION PLANNING &LAND USE MANAGEMENT
The City of Los Angeles has many properties within its jurisdiction that have been abandoned or
neglected by the owners. These properties can be dangerous or injurious to neighboring property
and residents. In order to address this issue, the City has within its power the ability to declare a
private property a public nuisance.

Public nuisance properties are especially prevalent in underserved areas like South Los Angeles.
Council Districts 8, 9, and 15 have the highest reported number of properties that are being
processed as public nuisances. This can be a labor intensive process, sometimes taking months if
not years for the City to clean up when a property owner is not compliant. In the meantime,
residents are faced with increased safety concerns, including illegal activity and potential fires.

The Board of Public Works estimates the average processing time for these cases to be over a
year. It is clear that additional resources are needed by the Department in order to create a more
timely process to address these public safety concerns.

While the City does have LAMC Sec 58.02 in its code to define public nuisance, this definition
does not currently include hazardous materials, biohazards, or fire hazards. It would be beneficial
to the City's public nuisance declaration process, to expand the current definition.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the Board of Public Works and the Bureau
of Sanitation to report back with a breakdown of all the pending public nuisance properties in the
City, a plan to address these properties, and recommendations on how to improve and speed up
the public nuisance declaration process, including staffing and budgetary needs.

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council request the City Attorney's Office to prepare and
present an ordinance to amend LAMC Sec 58.02 to add to the definition of public nuisance:
hazardous materials, biohazards, and fire hazards.

 MOTION

 Section 22 .171.10 of the Administrative Code provides that the City Counci I, the Cultural Heritage
Commission, or the Director of Planning, may initiate consideration of a proposed site, building, or
structure as a Historic-Cultural Monument. The Cultural Heritage Commission, after reviewing and
investigating any such Council-initiated designation, shall approve or disapprove in whole or in part the
proposed inclusion and submit a report on such action to the Council. In addition, Section 22.171.12 of the
Administrative Code provides that there shall be a temporary stay of demolition, substantial alteration or
removal of any such proposed location or structure pending designation.

 The property located at 10430 West Bellagio Road, Los Angeles, CA 90077, is the work of master
architect Paul Revere Williams and was the long-time home of the Honorable Rosalind (Roz) Wyman. Roz
Wyman who, among other accomplishments, was the first woman to serve as the Los Angeles City
Councilmember for the Fifth District, at the age of 22 was the youngest person ever elected to the Los
Angeles City Council, and was persistent and successful at bringing the Dodgers to Los Angeles.

 It is imperative that the City's historic..cultural treasures be celebrated, and foremost, that its
historical sites be preserved for future generations. As such, the historic-cultural merits of this property
need to be assessed, especially as they relate to Monument Designation Criterion 2 (association with the
lives of historic personages) and Criterion 3 (the representation of a notable work of a master designer,
builder, or architect whose individual genius influenced his or her age).

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council initiate consideration of the property located at 10430 West
Bellagio Road, Los Angeles, CA 90077 as a City Historic-Cultural Monument under the procedures of
Section 22 .171.1 O of the Administrative Code, and instruct the Planning Department to prepare the
Historic-Cultural Monument application for review and consideration by the Cultural Heritage Commission.

 I FURTHER MOVE that after reviewing the application, the Cultural Heritage Commission submit
its report and recommendation to the Council regarding the inclusion of the property located at 10430
West Bellagio Road, Los Angeles, CA 90077, in the City's list of Historic•Cultural Monuments.

Part of Interstate 10 near downtown Los Angeles will remain closed until repairs are made after a
massive fire rampaged through storage lots underneath the structure on Saturday, November
11th, 2023. According to Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) officials, eight acres were
scorched in the blaze.

The California Department of Transportation sent officials to inspect the highway, and detours
have been established in the area to ease traffic. California Governor Gavin Newsom issued a
state of emergency in Los Angeles County to deploy resources to repair the damage caused by
the fire and minimize travel impacts for residents. Beyond the impact that this will have on the
entire region economically, socially, and environmentally- it's a wake-up call for local officials
to m1derstand the impacts that a state of emergency such as this could have on their Council
District.

Critical infrastructure, such as bridges, schools, pipelines, airports, municipal facilities, parks and
reserves, and major commuter corridors are assets for our communities. Through the varied
duties related to fire hazard reduction, LAFD is meant to assess all areas across the City to better
diagnose risk related to critical infrastructure and to implement preventive measures that can
address potential emergencies. In order to prevent another fire-related state of emergency is
necessary to keep our critical infrastructure protected and our City running.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council direct the Emergency Management Department,
with the assistarn;e of the Los Angeles Fire Department, to assess each Council District for fire
risk and prevention related to both sensitive, high-risk areas and arson prevention for critical
infrastructure. This assessment should outline which agencies have a form of oversight related to
the infrastructure in order for the Council to better understand the levels of inter-agency

On July 14-, 2023, over 60,000 members.of the Screen Actors Gulld-American Federation of
Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) joined the Writers Guild of America (WGA) on the picket
lines to demand new contracts with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP).
This marked the first simultaneous strike by the two unions since 1960 and applied to 160,000
members, including actors, writers, and dancers, most of whom reside in Los Angeles. As of
November 9, 2023, both strikes have officially ended and new contract agreements have been
presented to both unions for review.

The entertainment industry plays a vital role in economic growth for Los Angeles, as each film and
television series employs roughly 300 crew members, ranging from carpenters and caterers to set
designers and personal assistants, aside from actors and directors. Overall, it brings in over $30
billion to the State of California and more than $100 billion in tourism. Additionally, the entertainment
industry, including actors and production staff, supports countless small businesses locally.

As each strike resulted in a work stoppage lasting more than 100 days, many employers laid off
workers or reduced employee hours or wages. Jn August 2023 alone, the film, music, and TV
industries lost 17,000 jobs. Other businesses that reply on production were similarly adversely
impacted.

With the strikes now over, we can expect a surge in production demand as employees return to work
and the industry resumes its daily operations. As the City of Los Angeles remains committed to
supporting all workers and small businesses in and supported by the entertainment industry, it must
encourage and expedite the resumption of production in the city.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the Chief Legislative Analyst, with the assistance
of the Department of Recreation and Parks, Fire Department, Police Department, General Services
Department, Economic Workforce and Development Department, and Bureau of Public Works, to
report back in 15 days on:

 and television productions with FilmLA;
 (ii) an evaluation of any City fees associated with these productions and potential beneficial
 adjustments to them; and

 permanently to facilitate and expedite the resumption of local production.

second largest city. By responding to over 1,500 emergency incidents like fires, traffic
accidents, and medical emergencies, as well as transporting over 600 people to area
hospitals each day, LAFD ensures that Angelenos are getting the care they need, and
staying safe.

There have been important steps taken by LAFD to recruit and reward staff for training

employees get the financial compensation they deserve for their ongoing skill
deve lopme nt.

Despite the necessary and transformational work they do, hundreds of LAFD firefighters
and medics have not been paid for months of work performed for the City of Los
Angeles. There is a 40% vacancy in LAFD personnel and accounting and it is further
compounded by the transition in payroll systems happening throughout the City. Even
though LAFD has made this a priority, it is unable to keep up with these changes and
get monies out at the rate needed without additional support. There is an immediate

 On Saturday, November 11, 2023, a massive fire broke out under the 10 Freeway in
downtown Los Angeles, burning approximately eight acres of storage pallets, trailers, and
vehicles. Due to the extensive damage, the 1O Freeway will remain closed at least several more
weeks, causing long-term traffic and economic impacts for the entire region. This recent fire
underscores the vulnerability of our City's infrastructure and the importance of protecting these
vital systems against fire and other risks, whether from human or non-human activity.

 As the City's homelessness crisis has grown exponentially, our freeway underpasses
and overpasses, bridges, tunnels, and other transportation infrastructure have become a focal
point. While these locations may provide shade and shelter from the elements, they are
incompatible with human habitation. Open flames, gas tanks and generators, excessive
personal belongings, trash, and other flammable and hazardous materials in these
encampments are not uncommon. At just one underpass in CD11, there were more than ten
encampment related fires between 2021-2022.

 When fires in and around our critical infrastructure occur, the lives, health and safety of
those living in encampments at those locations, as well as the lives and safety of our City's first
responders, are significantly jeopardized.

 Legal precedent in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals allows for reasonable time and
place restrictions on where encampments may and may not be permitted. The City of Los
Angeles has already enacted certain time and place restrictions, including within the vicinity of
fire hydrants, driveways, and entrances to local businesses, as well as other usensitive use
sites," such as schools, parks, and daycares as defined ln Los Angeles Municipal Code Section
41.18.

 In light of these risks, the City should consider enacting legislation that would create safe
barriers around our City's critical infrastructure, very high fire severity zones (as established
pursuant to Los Angeles Municipal Code Section 57.4911.1.1 et seq,), and environmentally
sensitive areas.

 Other local governments, including the City of Sacramento and the County of
Sacramento, have enacted ordinances protecting critical infrastructure such as emergency
response, transportation, utilities, communications, water, and waste disposal and management.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the Chief Legislative Analyst in
coordination with Bureau of Engineering, Department of City Planning and Department of
Transportation, with other departments as necessary, to prepare an inventory of the City's
critical infrastructure that is essential to the provision of public services, including but not limited
to freeway underpasses, overpasses, bridges, train tracks, tunnels, waterways, drainage
systems, public utilities, telecommunications systems, government buildings, facilities that
house government operations, and transportation systems.

30 days regarding the number of encampment-related fires that have occurred along freeway
underpasses, overpasses, and embankments in 2023, year to date.

 I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council request the City Attorney to prepare and
present potential amendments to existing City laws that would protect critical. infrastructure and
our City's High Fire Severity Zones and Environmentally Sensitive Areas. The City of
Sacramento and County of Sacramento ordinances should be used as a framework.

 The U.S. Department of Agriculture has identified 150 food deserts in Los Angeles Cow1ty. The
 Watts community in Los Angeles is identified by the USDA as an "urban food desert" because at
 least 100 households are more than a half mile away from the nearest supermarket and do not
 have vehicle access. Without access to fresh produce and fruits, those who reside in food deserts
 have higher risk of diet-related conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.

 The City owns a property located at 2254 E. 103rd Street (90002) in the Watts community that
 had previously been used as a community garden and referred to as the "I Heart Watts Garden."
 The Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles (HACLA) has received grant funds to manage
 a community garden at this site in partnership with residents of the Jordan Downs housing
 development and students from nearby Jordan High School. This garden would be an asset to the
 community and provides space for people of all ages and backgrounds to grow healthy food in
 their neighborhoods.

 In order to ensure that this valuable property is re-established as a community asset, the Council
 should instruct the Department of General Services to negotiate a no-cost license agreement for
 this site with the HACLA to utilize and maintain the property as a community garden.
