Services for the hearing impaired, please see the information below.

Telecommunication Relay Services

Telephone communication is one of the most important forms of communication in society today. Due to advancements
in technology, telephone devices have evolved with new services and capabilities. Individuals who are deaf and hard of
hearing, and individuals with a speech disability are following these trends and are rapidly migrating to more advanced
telecommunications methods, both for peer-to-peer and third-party telecommunications relay service (TRS)
communications.

Telecommunications Relay Service is a telephone service that allows persons with hearing or speech disabilities to place
and receive telephone calls. TRS is available in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. territories
for local and/or long distance calls. TRS providers - generally telephone companies - are compensated for the costs of
providing TRS from either a state or a federal fund. There is no cost to the TRS user.

What forms of TRS are available?There are several forms of TRS, depending on the particular needs of the user and
the equipment available: TRS includes: Text to Voice TIY-Based TRS; Speech-to-Speech Relay Service; Shared Non-
English Language Relay Service; Captioned Telephone Relay Service; Internet Protocol Relay Service; and Video Relay
Service. Please visit this site for detail descriptions, https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/telecommunications-relay-
service-trs.

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

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

 BASIC CITY COUNCIL MEETING RULES

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




 Wednesday - May 4, 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.
More information is available at ethics.lacity.org/lobbying. For assistance, please contact the Ethics Commission at (213)
978-1960 or ethics.commission@lacity.org.

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

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

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.

Through a collaboration with Council District 4, on December 31, 2021, the City Administrative
Officer (CAO) applied for an Encampment Resolution Grant (ERG) on behalf of the City from
the State of California. On February 25, 2022, the CAO was notified that the City's proposal,
which focused on housing and services for people experiencing homelessness along the Los
Angeles River, had been selected by the State and that the City would receive $1. 7 million for
the effort.

The LA River comprises a coherent geography with many people who have lived in and around
its banks for years. People experiencing homelessness along the river are less likely to receive
services: the terrain makes it difficult for outreach workers to access encampments, and a morass
of government jurisdictions results in burdensome coordination for basic services, such as trash
removal.

The project funded by the ERG will bring governments, service providers, and neighbors
together to get many of the people experiencing homeless along the river- some of whom have
barely been reached by our homeless system - off the street for good. Funds will be used to
support homeless outreach, housing and shelter, public health and hygiene services, and other
services as necessary.

The City will expend no less than 50 percent of program funds by June 30, 2023, and 100
percent of program funds by no later than June 30, 2024. The CAO is anticipating receiving the
State funds soon and needs authority to accept and deposit them prior to programming the funds.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the CAO to:
 a. Execute any necessary documents to accept the ERG funding on behalf of the City; and
 b. Be the designated grant administrator for the ERG.

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council request the City Controller to establish a new Special
Fund, entitled "Encampment Resolution Grant - LA River," within Department 10, to receive
and disburse the ERG funds.

 At its meeting on April 13, 2022 (Letter of Determination date: April 28, 2022), the West Los Angeles
Area Planning Commission denied an appeal of Case No. ZA-2019-5552-ZV-lA, and sustained the Zoning
Administrator's Determination dated January 26, 2022 which denied Zone Variance requests pursuant to City
Charter Section 562 and Municipal Code Section 12.27, for wall/monument signs, for the property located at 9760
West Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles CA 90035, within the West Los Angeles Community Plan.

 The West Los Angeles APC action sustained the Zoning Administrator's Determination to deny a
request for:
 A. Twelve (12) on-site wall signs totaling 487.24 square feet of surface area in the Single Family (Rl) zone
 in lieu of the maximum 30 square feet of surface area, and six (6) signs in the Rl Zone that individually
 exceed the maximum 20 square feet of surface area pursuant to Municipal Code Section 12.21-A.7(h);
 B. Four (4) wall signs that project more than 24 inches from the face of the building, pursuant to Municipal
 Code Section 14.4.10-D.2;
 C. Four (4) signs to be placed on an "awning" (canopy) that is not on the valence as prohibited pursuant
 Municipal Code Section 14.4.19;
 D. Three (3) monument signs totaling 275 square feet in lieu of the maximum area of75 square feet pursuant
 to Municipal Code Section 14.4.8-A.

 Over the three and a half years this case has been pending, the Applicant, Yeshiva University Los Angeles,
has listened to community concerns and made many modifications to their proposal. These modifications represent
a reasonable compromise with the community. Such modifications include removing two of the most public-
facing signs from their proposal and making minor adjustments to multiple other signs. However, these
modifications have not been properly considered by the Zoning Administrator and the West Area Planning
Commission.

 Action is needed to assert jurisdiction over the abovementioned West Los Angeles Area Planning
Commission action to conduct further review of the requested land use entitlements. Ultimately, the sign proposal
does not bear any real impact on the community - these are not advertisements, these are not billboards, these are
not flashing mechanical displays. Instead, the proposed signs are largely hidden from public view, placed against
existing buildings and structures, and are integrated into the architectural style of the campus.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that pursuant to Section 245 of the Los Angeles City Charter, the Council assert
jurisdiction over the April 13, 2022 (Letter of Determination date: April 28, 2022) West Los Angeles Area
Planning Commission action to deny the appeal, and that sustained the Zoning Administrator's Determination
dated January 26, 2022, which denied Zone Variance requests for on-site wall/monument signs, for the property
located at 9760 West Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90035.

 Salvador Lara was born in Angamacutiro in the Mexican state of Michoacan on
November 20, 1960. Welcomed by his father Demetria Lara Zerato, Mother Luisa Moreno Reyes
and seven siblings, Salvador spent most of his adolescence helping his father maintain their
land while receiving his education in Michoacan. At age 11, Salvador and his family were forced
to leave their land behind due to a newly built reservoir that flooded their town. After completing
the sixth grade, Salvador went off to find work in Morelia, Mexico where he learned a variety of
hands-on skills including operating machinery that would support his future endeavors. In 1978
against his father's wishes, Salvador migrated to the United States looking for a better future.
He returned to Mexico a few years later where he would meet and marry his wife of 37 years,
Maria Teresa Lara. After giving birth to his first son Juan Ramon Lara, Salvador returned to the
United States in search of a better life for his son and wife.

 In 1991, Salvador moved his family to Wilmington, California, where continued to work
hard to provide his family a prosperous future full of the many opportunities afforded to
Americans. It was there that he and his wife expanded their family in 2015 with the birth of his
daughter Sydney Dyane Lara.

 Feeling a sense of empowerment and civic pride after becoming a United States Citizen
in 1996, Salvador embedded himself in community service with a clear mission to improve the
quality of life for ottwr~ in his beloved Wilmington community. He began by focusing on
com!fllun. ity. beautific~~~, c,eanVig one alley at a time in the surrounding neighborhoods. He
used h!~ , i)#( t~~$e both equipment and tools to clean up Wilmington. For many
years, Salvador would co'ntint~"fo volunteer his time and resources, alongside his longtime
friend and colleague Samuel Carranza, to remove trash and debris from the streets of
Wilmington.

 In 2007, Salvador joined Seed of Life, a Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)
Neighborhood Action Council. From there, Salvador began to immerse himself in advocacy work
and organize larger community clean-ups across Wilmington with the support of SBCC's
community organizing venture and network of community partners.

 In 2010, after dedicating nearly 26 years of employment to a single employer, the
company sold to new ownership, which resulted in Salvador's termination. This brought financial
strains to his household and made it difficult to continue his volunteer work in the Wilmington
community. In the face of adversity and feeling the impact of the last recession, Salvador began
to reach out to partners looking for funding opportunities in order to keep Wilmington clean. With
the support of Councilmember Joe Buscaino, Salvador would be able to build a strong
partnership with the Councilmember's Office and find resources to continue his work. He

 MAY o 4 2on
established ,and continues to manage Clean Wilmington, one of the most successful
beautification organizations in the City of Los Angeles.

 In 2016, Clean Wilmington found a new home with SBCC. Strengthened by SBCC's
network, Clean Wilmington has now grown to a resident-led venture that employs a team of
three Wilmington residents. Placing public health at the forefront, Salvador and Clean
Wilmington's approach differs from traditional solutions. He is committed to civic pride initiatives
that create resilient and dynamic communities where individuals access the skills to address
community challenges and to build solutions that last. Salvador has successfully increased
community support, creating a shared sense of community that has built personal investment
among residents ensuring long-term sustainability.

 Salvador has continued to be of service to his community by supporting community
clean-ups, beautification projects, and the revitalization of Avalon Boulevard. As Salvador
approaches his retirement, he is investing in educating the younger generation on the
importance of civic engagement, resident led solutions, and community beautification in the
hopes that others will continue the legacy of Clean Wilmington.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the Board of Recreation & Parks Commissioners be
REQUESTED to re-name East Wilmington Greenbelt Pocket Park to Salvador Lara Pocket
Park, in honor of the decades of service to the Wilmington community and the neighborhood
where Salvador Lara has lived.

 Section 22.171.10 of the Administrative Code provides that the City Council, 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 upon.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 or any such proposed location or structure
pending designation.
 The property located at 6543 Corbin Avenue, Woodland Hills, CA 91367, Disabled
American Veterans Hall, (Birmingham Hospital Chapter 73), is a historic-cultural treasure,
inasmuch as since its purchase in 1946; its construction in 1954 on 4.59 acres ofland when it
was first a Veterans rehabilitation center called DAV Birmin am Hospital Chapter 73.




 The DAV Birmingham Hospital Chapter 73 is totally funded by dues and contributions,
receiving no Federal funding, and it has been dedicated to a single purpose: empowering
veterans and their families to lead high-quality lives with respect and dignity. Any man or
woman, who was wounded, gassed, injured or disabled in the line of duty during time of war,
while in the service of either the military or naval forces of the United States of America, is
eligible for membership in the DAV.
 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.
 I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council initiate consideration of the property located at

 Dr. Masakazu Jack Fujimoto was born in National City, California in 1928. At the age of
  13, he and his family were forcibly relocated to the Poston Water Relocation Center, an
  internment camp in Arizona. The Fujimoto family was released in 1945. After graduating from
  high school, Dr. Fujimoto served in the U.S. Army in Japan during the Korean War.

 After returning from the Korean War, Dr. Fujimoto moved to Los Angeles to attend
  college. While working at a gas station in the Sawtelle area, he met his wife Grace Fusaye Toya
  who he married at the West Los Angeles Buddhist Temple in 1956. Dr. Fujimoto would go on to
  earn his bachelor's, master's, and doctorate degrees all from the University of California, Los
  Angeles. Dr. Fujimoto then taught Japanese language at Venice Gakuen, a private school at the
  Venice Japanese Community Center.

 In 1969, Dr. Fujimoto was chosen to serve as dean at the Los Angeles Pierce College in
  Woodland Hills where he established Japanese language courses and other courses on
  humanities in East Asia. In 1979, Dr. Fujimoto began working as president of West Los Angeles
  College, where he again introduced and taught Japanese language courses, repeating this in
  1989 when he became president at Los Angeles Mission College in the San Fernando Valley, a
  role he would hold until 1996.

 Dr. Fujimoto had also been actively involved with the Japanese Institute of Sawtelle since
  1986 and helped orchestrate its merger with the Sawtelle Gakuin, a Japanese language school.
  He would then serve as the Japanese Institute of Sawtelle's founding chairman and present until
  2005, continuing to serve as a senior advisor to the institute afterwards. Dr. Fujimoto also
  chaired the Board of Trustees of the Institute of Buddhist Studies, a seminary affiliated with
  Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, California, from 1983 to 1995.

 In recognition of Dr. Fujimoto's accomplishments in academia throughout the City and his
  lifelong promotion of Japanese culture, history, and language, it is appropriate that the City name
  the intersection of Sawtelle Boulevard and Mississippi Avenue, near the Japanese Institute of
  Sawtelle, as "Dr. Jack Fujimoto Square."

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the intersection at Sawtelle Boulevard and Mississippi Avenue
  be named as "Dr. Jack Fujimoto Square" and that the Department of Transportation be directed
  to erect permanent ceremonial sign(s) to this effect at this location.

 William Lambert moved with his family to California from the Bronx in 1935. He would
go on to earn a bachelor's in history from the University of California, Los Angeles in 1952; and
a master's in education from California State University, Los Angeles in 1964.

 Mr. Lambert began his career in education in 1955, teaching 5th grade students at
Montague Elementary, a Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) public school in
Pacoima. He would teach 4th and 5th graders for the next seven years at Montague Elementary
and Canterbury Elementary. It was here he joined the Parent Student Teacher Organization,
beginning his work as an advocate for teachers and reform in our City's public schools.

 In 1962, Mr. Lambert left teaching to co-found the Los Angeles Teachers Association,
quadrupling its membership to 800 in five years before merging with the Association of Teachers
of Los Angeles in 1968 to form the Association of Classroom Teachers Los Angeles, which
boasted a 14,000 membership. Two years later, Mr. Lambert would co-found the United
Teachers of Los Angeles, which today is the second-largest local teacher's union in the nation.

 In his work organizing and advocating for teachers, Mr. Lambert improved benefits and
working conditions improved benefits and working conditions for public school teachers, leading
the first teacher's strike in 1970 and achieving passage oflandmark legislation in 1975 which
gave teachers the right to collectively bargain. In 2008, Mr. Lambert retired after 47 years of
serving as the Union's Director of Government Affairs.

 Mr. Lambert also led efforts to repeal discriminatory laws that excluded people of color
from serving on the LAUSD board and hired diverse organizers for the unions he led. In 1991,
he founded "Children of the Dream," which was an international student exchange program
formed to improve race relations in Los Angeles high schools that operated for 12 years and
would spread to other cities across the country.

 Today, Mr. Lambert, who is now 92 years-old, continued his volunteer efforts to improve
our local schools after retirement and through his late 80s, helping implement early reading
programs that used advance technology to diagnose vision coordination. In light of Mr.
Lambert's laudable career bolstering public education in Los Angeles for over 55 years, it is
appropriate that the portion of Linnet Street that runs the length of Gaspar de Portola Middle
School in Tarzana, where Mr. Lambert resides, be legally renamed as "Bill Lambert Way."

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Engineer be directed to initiate the process of
changing the name of Linnet Street from Crebs A venue to Yolanda A venue to "Bill Lambe~-'111111111.
Way."

 MOTION PLANNING &LAND USE MANAGEMENT
 In 2017, the City Council adopted a commercial cannabis regulatory program that created
 the Department of Cannabis Regulation (DCR) and the Cannabis Regulation Commission, and
 also established a licensing framework and the Social Equity Program. Since 2017, DCR has
 issued over 1,000 licenses to commercial cannabis businesses.


 I Despite these efforts, unlicensed commercial cannabis activity continues to undermine
 the legal commercial cannabis industry and threatens the health and safety of Los Angeles
 residents. Unlicensed locations often sell products that are tainted, contaminated, mislabeled,
 unlabeled, or misbranded, and may cause serious injury or illness if consumed.

 The public must be informed whether a retail cannabis business is unlicensed before
 entering the premises and, further, cannabis consumers should understand the health risks and
 consequences of shopping at an unlicensed cannabis business. This knowledge and
 understanding will empower consumers to make smart choices to protect their health and safety.

 To address these concerns, the County of Los Angeles Department of Public Health
 (County) has developed the Emblem Program for Authorized Cannabis Stores (Program). The
 Program provides for the issuance of an Emblem Placard to licensed commercial cannabis
 businesses for display in a prominent location. An Emblem Placard will serve as notice to the
 public and enforcement agencies that the commercial cannabis business is licensed and in
 compliance with all applicable public health laws and regulations as determined by a County
 inspection.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Attorney's Office be requested to prepare and
 present an ordinance with an urgency clause that (1) replaces existing Los Angeles Municipal
 Code (LAMC) section 104.23 with language consistent with the proposed ordinance in
 Attachment A; and (2) amends LAMC section 31.00, et seq., and other provisions to the extent
 necessary, to incorporate the relevant provisions of the Los Angeles County Code and implement
 the County's Emblem Program for Authorized Cannabis Stores. C)

ATTACHMENT A: PROPOSED ORDINANCE LANGUAGE FOR COUNTY EMBLEM
PROGRAM FOR AUTHORIZED CANNABIS STORES




SEC.104.23. STOREFRONT RETAILER EMBLEM PROGRAM.

(a) Purpose.

 1. Unlicensed cannabis businesses threaten the health and safety of cannabis
 consumers by selling products that are cultivated, manufactured, prepared, and
 processed outside of the regulated cannabis marketplace. These products are
 tainted, contaminated, mislabeled, unlabeled, or misbranded, and may cause
 serious injury or illness if consumed. Unlicensed and unregulated cannabis stores
 harm the peace, comfort, and welfare of communities and people who live and work
 nearby. These stores are more likely to operate outside of proscribed hours of
 operation without meeting locational and operational standards, and are more likely
 to sell cannabis in quantities that exceed legal limits and sell cannabis to minors in
 violation of applicable law.

 2. Cannabis consumers must be informed whether a retail cannabis business is
 unlicensed before having to enter the premises and must understand the health
 risks and consequences of shopping at an unlicensed cannabis business. This
 knowledge and understanding empowers consumers to make smart choices to
 protect their health and safety. Communities will also benefit from a reduction in the
 number of unlicensed cannabis stores.

 3. The Emblem Program for Authorized Cannabis Stores (Program) is administered by
 the County of Los Angeles in partnership with cities within the County of Los Angeles
 as a cross-jurisdictional effort to deter the operation of unlicensed cannabis
 businesses. The Program is intended to protect consumers and stop harmful effects
 caused by unlicensed and unregulated cannabis businesses on local
 neighborhoods and communities by requiring retail cannabis businesses that have
 received all appropriate licenses, permits, or authorizations from the State of
 California and local governments to both display a unique emblem on the store's
 premises so that it is highly visible to the public from the exterior of the store, and
 provide and make Program supplied health-related information accessible to
 consumers.

 4. The Program is not intended to promote the use, possession, distribution,
 manufacturing, sale, or cultivation of cannabis or cannabis products, or to engage
 in any actions that conflict with any applicable local, state, or federal laws.
(b) Definitions.

 1. Authorized Cannabis Store: A Licensee engaged in on-site retail sales of medical
 or adult-use cannabis to customers at a Business Premises location, provided:

 i. T~e Licensee has obtained a Type-10 (Retailer) or Type 12 (Microbusiness)
 License or Temporary Approval from the City, and a license or provisional
 license from the State of California for the same activity or activities;

 ii. The Licensee has obtained all licenses, permits, or authorizations required by
 the City and any other local agencies necessary to allow the business to engage
 in the sale of medical or adult-use cannabis; and

 iii. The Licensee keeps all applicable licenses, permits, or authorizations current
 and valid, and remains in good standing to engage in the sale of medical ~r
 adult-use cannabis in the City.

 2. Emblem: The emblem featured on the Emblem Placard issued to an Authorized
 Cannabis Store by the Program Administrator as part of the Program.

 3. Emblem Placard: A placard displaying the Emblem and other required information,
 that conforms to the design requirements specified in paragraph 6 and issued to an
 Authorized Cannabis Store by the Program Administrator as part of the Program
 that notifies the public that the store has received all required state and local
 licenses, permits, or other authorizations to become an Authorized Cannabis Store.

 4. Health Information Advisory: The pamphlet, paper, or other media provided to
 the Authorized Cannabis Store by the Program Administrator that contains health
 information messages, regarding cannabis use and its potential health impacts,
 created by the Department of Public Health.

 6. Program Administrator. The Director of the Los Angeles County Department of
 Public Health, or his or her designee.

(c) Emblem-Significance. The Emblem, when displayed on the Emblem Placard in
 accordance with the provisions of this ordinance, shall serve as notice to the public that
 the commercial cannabis business to which the Emblem Placard was issued is an
 Authorized Cannabis Store at the time of issuance and is in compliance with all
 applicable public health laws and regulations as determined during the most recent
 Public Health inspection. The Emblem and Emblem Placard shall not grant any rights or
 remedies, and shall not be construed as granting any rights or remedies, to any person
 or entity in possession of the Emblem or Emblem Placard. The Emblem and Emblem
 Placard may not be sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred, and shall not be removed
 from the premises of the Authorized Cannabis Store to which the Emblem Placard was
 issued, except as specified in this ordinance. The Emblem Placard shall not create,
 confer or convey any vested or nonconforming right or benefit, including the right to
 engage in Commercial Cannabis Activity, to any Person in possession of the Emblem
 Placard.

(d) Emblem Placard-Issuance, Posting, Inspection, Suspension, and Revocation.

 1. Issuance. The Program Administrator shall cause an Emblem Placard to be issued
 to all Authorized Cannabis Stores.

 2. Posting. The Program Administrator shall cause the Emblem Placard to be posted
 at the Business Premises so as to be clearly visible to the general public and to
 patrons entering the Business Premises. For this purposes of this section, "clearly
 visible to the general public and to patrons entering the store's premises" means:

 i. Posted in the front window of the retail business within five (5) feet of the front
 door or posted in a display case mounted to the outside front wall of the store
 within five (5) feet of the front door; or

 ii. Posted in a location as directed and determined in the discretion of the
 Program Administrator to ensure proper notice to the general public and to
 patrons.

 iii. An Authorized Cannabis Store shall, at its sole cost, make any reasonable
 modifications to the exterior or interior of its Business Premises that the
 Program Administrator determines are necessary to accommodate the
 posting of the Emblem Placard, including but not limited to modifications to
 lighting, window treatments, coverings, tinting, glazing, and painting, and the
 mounting of a display case on the exterior of the premises.

 Iv. An Authorized Cannabis Store shall not alter, move, remove, or otherwise
 modify an Emblem Placard posted at its Business Premises pursuant to this
 section unless ordered or authorized to do so in writing by the Program
 Administrator.

 5. Inspection. Not less than once per year, the Program Administrator shall cause an
 inspection to take place at the premises of an Authorized Cannabis Store to ensure
 the Emblem Placard is displayed and the Health Information Advisory is provided or
 made accessible to consumers in compliance with the provisions of this ordinance.
 Inspections shall take place during ordinary business hours and may be
 unannounced. The Program Administrator may conduct an inspection more than
 once per year if the Program Administrator determines more frequent inspections
 are necessary to ensure compliance with the Program. Inspections may be
 conducted in conjunction with or separately from other regular inspections.

 6. Suspension. Upon a determination by the Program Administrator that a Licensee
 ceases to keep all applicable licenses, permits, or authorizations current, valid, and
 in good standing, the Program Administrator may immediately suspend the
 Licensee's participation in the Program. Written notice will be provided to the
 Licensee detailing the reason for the suspension, along with instructions for
'


 reinstatement. The Emblem Placard will be removed by the Program Administrator,
 or an authorized representative, until the Licensee takes the necessary steps for
 reinstatement into the Program.

 7. Revocation. Upon a determination by the Program Administrator that a Licensee
 ceases to be an Authorized Cannabis Store for any reason, the Program
 Administrator shall immediately issue an order in writing to the store to remove the
 Emblem Placard from public view and return the Emblem Placard to the Program
 Administrator, or provide other evidence satisfactory to the Program Administrator
 that the Emblem Placard has been destroyed. The Program Administrator's
 determination shall be final and not subject to appeal. If an Authorized Cannabis
 Store's Temporary Approval or License is revoked, suspended, or not renewed, the
 Licensee shall immediately remove the Emblem Placard from public view.

 (e) Health information Advisory. An Authorized Cannabis Store, at the direction of the
 Program Administrator, shall provide or make accessible to the consumer a Health
 Information Advisory created by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.
 The Health Information Advisory shall be supplied to the store by the Program
 Administrator. The store shall provide the Health Information Advisory to the consumer at
 the point of sale. The Program Administrator may also supply Health Information Advisory
 materials in pamphlet or other written form to an Authorized Cannabis Store, and require
 those materials be displayed and made accessible to consumers in the store's customer
 services areas.

 (f) Violations.

 1. It shall be unlawful for any person to engage in the retail sale of medical or adult-
 use cannabis or cannabis products in the City unless it is an Authorized Cannabis
 Store and displays an Emblem Placard in compliance with the provisions of this
 ordinance.

 2. It shall be a misdemeanor and an unfair business practice subject to criminal and
 civil enforcement to display or use the Emblem or Emblem Placard, or any placard,
 symbol, or rendering that is substantially or confusingly similar to the Emblem or
 Emblem Placard, in connection with any commercial cannabis activity for the
 purpose of falsely holding oneself out as an Authorized Cannabis Store thereby
 endangering the health and safety of the public.

 3. City and the Program Administrator may conduct inspections of any commercial
 cannabis business displaying the Emblem or Emblem Placard, or a substantially or
 confusingly similar Emblem or Emblem Placard, on its premises, for the purposes
 of determining whether the store is an Authorized Cannabis Store thereby protecting
 the health and safety of the public.

 4. Where City and County laws conflict, commercial cannabis businesses shall comply
 with all City laws, rules, and regulations unless the issue directly relates to matters
 of public health that are regulated by the County pursuant to this Program.
 MOTION
 ~PECIAL 1
 The most important factor in consideration of any project being introduced and built in my
 Council District is the safety, health and welfare of our communities. The proposed project on
 135-153 W. Avenue 34 in the Lincoln Heights community (Ave 34 site) was conditioned by the
 request of my office so that the property owners shall satisfy any requirements from the State
 Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) in relation to potential contamination on the
 subject site prior to the issuance of any clearanc'?s by the Department of City Planning (DCP),
 property owners were directed to provide to DCP a letter from DTSC that establishes DTSC's
 satisfaction that the subject site meets DTSC requirements for the proposed use of residential
 housing.

The development site is a 5-acre parcel previously used for commercial/industrial purposes
between the l 920's and 2000s. The property owner entered into a Voluntary Cleanup Agreement
withD'liSC .t o as.se~s contamination caused by previous site operations. The property owner
 ... l • ......



proposes a mixed-use redevelopment at the site. A Removal Action Workplan has been approved
by DTSC to clean up the site except DTSC has recently stated they have no plans to perform off
site testing that the City of Los Angeles and community has asked be performed.

This weekend, after the posting of the agenda, the LA Times exposed the toxic dumping history
at this parcel dating back to 1984 when the District Attorney's Office now-defunct Los Angeles
Hazardous Waste Task Force discovered 252 barrels buried in caverns surrounding the current
development site. Some of the chemicals were also dumped into sewer lines. Before the
discovery, the dumping practice had carried on for four years.

According to the LA Times article testing done at the property in late 2021 revealed levels of
volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, that were more than 4,000 times higher than what is
recommended for residential standards. The compounds included the dry cleaning solvent
tetrachloroethylene, or PCE, which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says may
harm the nervous system, reproductive system, liver and kidneys, and may possibly cause cancer.

Toxins do not stop at property lines and there is an immediate need to perform further testing.

This parcel sits across the street from an elementary school and residential housing.

There is a great need to detect off site any possible contamination generated by the prior
operations and proposed construction on the development site to mitigate any risks to protect the
health and safety of the public.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council determine, as provided by Section 54954.2(b )(2)
of the Government Code, and pursuant to Rule 23 of the Rules of the City Council, that there is a
~ddo take immediate action on this matter AND that the need for action came to the attention
of the ~sequent to the posting of the agenda for today' s Council meeting.
 ~YQ •mt
I FURTHER MOVE that the Bureau of Sanitation be directed to immediately lead off site
testing of wastewater, storm water and soil.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Los Angeles Fire Department, Department of Building and Safety,
General Services Department, and Bureau of Engineering be instructed to support jointly and
independently these testing efforts with staff, facilities, and other resources.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Bureau of Sanitation formally request support from the County of
Los Angeles Department of Public Health to assist with off site testing.
