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.

Office of the City Clerk, Council and Public Services Division, Room 395, City Hall, 200 North Spring Street, Los Angeles,

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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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

When debate on an item is completed, the Chair will instruct the Clerk to "call the roll". Every member present must vote for
or against each item; abstentions are not permitted. The Clerk will announce the votes on each item. Any member of
Council may move to "reconsider" any vote on any item on the agenda, except to adjourn, suspend the Rules, or where an
intervening event has deprived the Council of jurisdiction, providing that said member originally voted on the prevailing side of
the item. The motion to "reconsider" shall only be in order once during the meeting, and once during the next regular
meeting. The member requesting reconsideration shall identify for all members present the agenda number, Council file
number and subject matter previously voted upon. A motion to reconsider is not debatable and shall require an affirmative
vote of eight (8) members of the Council.


When the Council has failed by sufficient votes to approve or reject an item, and has not lost jurisdiction over the matter, or
has not caused it to be continued beyond the next regular meeting, the item is continued to the next regular meeting for the
purpose of allowing the Council to again vote on the matter.


The City Council rules provide that all items adopted by the Council will not be presented to the Mayor, or other designated
officer by the City Clerk until the adjournment of the regular Council meeting following the date of the Council action. A
motion to send an item "forthwith" if adopted by ten (10) votes, suspends these rules and requires the City Clerk to forward
the matter to the Mayor, or other officer, without delay.

FEB 1 5 2023
 HOUSING &HOMELESSNESS
 MOTION

  Since the enactment of Los Angeles Municipal Code ("LAMC") 41.1 Sa-d by the City
  Council in mid 2021 and 41.1 Be in 2022, an estimated two thousand sites have been
  designated across the city as impermissible for individuals to sit, lie, sleep, or store
  belongings. In light of other programmatic approaches and in order to prioritize limited
  resources, it is critical that the City Council understand how the enforcement program
  for this regulation has been implemented, the degree to which this program has been
  effective in reducing unsheltered homelessness, and the total costs of the program. This
  is particularly important as COVID-19 related funding from the state and federal
  government begins to phase out.

  Additionally, shortly after the passage of LAMC 41.1 Sa-d, the City Council approved a
  "Street Engagement Strategy" (CF: 21-0329), a component of the Outreach
  Engagement Framework, which outlines required steps prior to the enforcement of
  LAMC 41.1 Sc.1-4 and d, including the identification of housing opportunities, the
  development of a specific engagement strategy, and a Coordinated Entry System
  assessment of individuals residing at the targeted locations. The effectiveness of the

 HOUSING &HOMELESSNESS

 MOTION


 With the region's scarcity of affordable housing - a particular challenge on the Westside, where
 prohibitively high land costs and historically restrictive zoning have presented major hurdles - a range of
 innovative policy tools must be considered to help quickly deliver homes that Angelenos can actually
 afford.

 Currently working its way through the California State Legislature is Senate Bill (SB) 4 (Wiener),
 Affordable Housing on Faith Lands Act. Introduced on December 5, 2022 by Senator Scott Wiener, and
 co-sponsored by the Non-Profit Housing Association of Northern California, Southern California
 Association of Non-Profit Housing (SCANPH), Jewish Public Affairs Committee of California,
 California Conference of Carpenters, and Inner-City Law Center, SB 4, if enacted into law, will allow
 religious organizations and non-profit colleges to develop affordable housing on their property
 regardless of local zoning restrictions.

 In 2021, the Council adopted the 2021-2029 Housing Element (CF21-1230), establishing a commitment
 to rezone for over 255,432 units by February 2025. In alignment with the goals of SB 4, the rezoning
 program includes incentive based strategies to facilitate affordable housing production on Faith Based
 properties through an Affordable Housing Overlay, as described in Council File 21-0972.

 Dating back to the Missions opening their doors in Skid Row in the late 19th century, religious
 institutions have been at the forefront of supporting Angelenos facing poverty and housing insecurity.
 Houses of worship, such as the Jewish spiritual community IKAR, are also now looking to build
 affordable and supportive housing on their land, recognizing the nexus of housing and homelessness.

 SB 4 seeks to make it easier for more religious and non-profit educational organizations statewide to
 start building more affordable homes. To maximize the potential of Faith Based properties, specifically
 in areas of the City that continue to lack a robust supply of affordable units, the City should take
 proactive steps to support both houses of worship and affordable housing developers as they seek to help
 more of our most vulnerable neighbors.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council instruct the Planning Department, Housing Department, and
 the City Administrative Officer, in consultation with the City Attorney, to prepare a report with
 recommendations in 90 days on the following: (I) all religious institutions and properties owned by
 religious institutions located within the Fifth Council District, and the current land use/zoning regulatory
 controls on these parcels; (2) information as to any State or local incentives that currently exist that are
 feasible toward and/or expedite the development of affordable and supportive housing, and (3) the
 impact of SB 4 (Wiener), if enacted into law, would have on further streamlining the development of
 affordable housing at these locations.


Pr< ·fEB 1 5 2023
I FURTHER MOVE that the Council instruct the Housing Department, Planning Department, and the
 ~ ''.
City Administrative Officer, ..to request input from affordable housing developers, the co-sponsors of SB
4, and religious institutions that have developed or are in the process of developing on-site affordable
housing, to include recommendations in their report for creating affordable and supportive housing on
property owned by faith-based institutions.
 PERSONNEL, AUDITS &HIRING
 MOTION
 The Human Resources Payroll Project (HRP Project) is the comprehensive replacement
of the City's existing payroll system with a modern human resources and payroll system
implemented by the vendor, Workday, Inc. The HRP Project formally commenced in April 2020
and is being implemented in two phases (Phase 1 and Phase 2) with separate go-live dates, with
each one focused on specific modules of the system.

 Phase 1, which went live in May 2022, focused on Human Capital Management,
Compensation, and reporting modules, with eight weeks of customer support from the vendor to
assist the HRP Project team with the transition to production and managing the system
independently. Since HRP Phase 1, the City now uses Workday as the system of record for all
employee onboarding, hiring, transfers, promotions, electronic employee records, position
control, and other human resource functions .

 Phase 2 implementation is currently underway and includes the Benefits, Payroll,
Absence, and Time Tracking modules, as well as, enhancements to the Compensation module.
Upon completion of Phase 2, the City will retire its current payroll system, PaySR. The go-live
date for Phase 2 was originally anticipated for December 2022, however, due to several delays
with the Project detailed in the report from the Information Technology Oversight Committee
dated October 31, 2022 (C.F. 20-0313-SlO), the go-live date for Phase 2 was revised to
December 2023.

 The HRP Sponsor Departments, which includes the Information Technology Agency,
Personnel, City Administrative Officer, and Office of the Controller, and the Project vendor,
should report on the current status of the HRP Project and the ability to go-live with Phase 2 by
December 2023. In addition, the Sponsor Departments should report on the knowledge gained
from and any issues with the implementation of Phase 1.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the Information Technology
Agency, Personnel Department, and City Administrative Officer, and request the City Controller,
to report to the Personnel, Audits, and Hiring Committee on Phases 1 and 2 of the Human
Resources and Payroll Project (Project), including knowledge gained from Phase 1, current status
of Phase 2 implementation, impact of the Project's implementation on hiring, and the resources
needed to accelerate the timeline to complete the Project.

 PLANNING &LAND USE MANAGEMENT
 MOTION

The Ventura/Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Specific Plan (Specific Plan), nestled between the Los Angeles River to the north
and Santa Monica Mountains to the south, is a land use plan that spans over 17 miles in length, includes 1,200 acres of land, and
regulates over 4,300 individual parcels in total. The Specific Plan encompasses the communities of Woodland Hills, Tarzana,
Encino, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, and Cahuenga Pass. Originally adopted in 1991, it was amended twice, once in 1996, then
again in 2001. Currently, the Specific Plan regulates floor area ratios, height, lot coverage, uses, development standards,
landscaping, parking, signs, and the collection of project impact assessment fees to ensure Ventura Boulevard remains viable as
the San Fernando Valley's premier commercial corridor.

The pending Ventura/Cahuenga Specific Plan Amendment was initiated in 2019 in response to a 2017 motion by the City
Council (CF 17-1071) which directed the Planning Department to amend the Specific Plan in order to achieve a more modem
and streamlined regulatory process. The amendment, which is currently being crafted by Los Angeles City Planning and the Los
Angeles Department of Transportation, aims to simplify and reduce the timeframe of the sign approval process to help small
businesses along the Corridor and update Project Impact Assessment (PIA) fees and allowable expenditures. The amendment
will look to make fees more flexible by allowing for expenditures that will apply to public realm improvements that are not
currently allowed in the Specific Plan; for example landscaped medians, sidewalks, street trees, streetlights, crosswalks, and
alleys among other improvements.

Local businesses are suffering from the burdensome sign process in the current Specific Plan and the COVID-19 pandemic has
exacerbated business difficulties and impeded economic recovery, therefore timely and expeditious amendments that help
modernize and streamline regulations should not be delayed. Furthermore, the policy goals and practical intent of this
amendment goes hand in hand with the sustainability, livability, and mobility goals of adopted plans and ordinances such as
Mobility Plan 2035, Plan for a Healthy Los Angeles, and the newly adopted Processes and Procedures Ordinance.

Additionally, the Specific Plan establishes the Ventura/Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Plan Review Board (PRB), as detailed
under Section 15 of the plan, whose members are appointed by Council Districts in which the Specific Plan area is located as
well as the Mayor, and which makes recommendations to these appointing authorities. These provisions were severely impacted
by the 2021 redistricting process. In November 2022, the Planning Department informed PRB members and affected Council
Offices no longer within the purview of the Specific Plan following the 2021 redistricting process about their respective
removals as a legal necessity based on existing rules as detailed in Section 15 to ensure that PRB reviews and actions are not in
a state of legal precariousness. Our understanding is that this change has been effectuated for some PRB members, but not
others, and has unfortunately caused confusion and frustration for many community members. As such, City Council should
consider and propose a sustainable solution and language amendments that center equitable community representation, feasible
tenureship, and a diversity of voices for designated advisory bodies under the jurisdiction of this Specific Plan and other
relevant plans that may be similarly affected by the redistricting processes.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the Los Angeles City Council instruct Los Angeles City Planning, with support from Los
Angeles Department of Transportation and all relevant agencies, to expeditiously amend the Ventura/Cahuenga Boulevard
Corridor Specific Plan to streamline signage reviews and other simple cases such as changes of use to assist local businesses; to
update and modify the language of the Specific Plan to reflect recently adopted ordinances; and to update the language of the
Specific Plan to broaden PRB membership to ensure socioeconomic and demographic diversity, to allocate PRB appointments
to achieve equitable representation based on communities rather than Council District, to clarify administrative duties to
properly run PRB meetings, and to clarify term limits and standardize processes for terms ending, among other things.

WHEREAS, over the past few years, catalytic converter theft has been on the rise; while California residents
make up about 12% of the population in the United States, it accounts for about 37% of the nation's
catalytic converter theft; and according to Ca IMatters, 1,600 catalytic converters are stolen every month in
