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.

 MOTION
In 2021, the City of Los Angeles Community Investment for Families Department (CIFD) launched
BIG:LEAP (Basic Income Guaranteed: Los Angeles Economic Assistance Pilot). Between January
2022 and March 2023, BIG:LEAP provided 3,200 vulnerable families with $1,000 per month in
no-strings-attached financial assistance for 12 months, totaling $38.4M.

Furthermore, CIFD partnered with the University of Pennsylvania Center for Guaranteed Income
Research (CGIR) to conduct a Randomized Controlled Trial research study on the program, issuing
periodic qualitative and quantitative surveys to both recipients of the monthly assistance (the "treatment
group") and a "control group" of individuals not receiving the monthly funds.

The final fund disbursement took place in March 2023 and the final research survey was issued in
August 2023. The CGIR team is now in the process of analyzing the collected survey, interview, and
spending data and producing a final report due in June 2024. Furthermore, they will carry out
to-be-determined post-report analytical activities in support of the program and communicating the
report results.

To ensure that we remain under contract through the end of our partnership, CIFD is requesting that the
existing contract (C-139859), expiring December 31, 2023, be extended to December 31, 2024 with no
increase to the contract amount.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council, subject to the approval of the Mayor:

1. AUTHORIZE the General Manager, or designee, of CIFD, to amend the City Contract No.

 HOUSING &HOMELESSNESS

 MOTION

 On December 12, 2022, Mayor Karen Bass issued a Declaration of Local Emergency,
ratified by the City Council on December 13, 2022, addressing the City's homelessness crisis.
This declaration's goal is to expedite the City's response by facilitating the building, renting and
acquiring of temporary and permanent housing, the procurement of services, to mobilize local
resources, and seek assistance from other governmental agencies including the County of Los
Angeles, the State of California, and the Federal government.

 The Inside Safe initiative was promptly launched by the Mayor's office and service
providers. It involves outreach, property storage, transportation to housing options, traffic
control, data collection, and referrals.

 Since the inception of Inside Safe, as evidenced by the latest September 15, 2023, the
City Administrative Officer report, 1,574 individuals have transitioned into interim housing from
25 encampment operations. However, the strategy for selecting motels/hotels based on
operation remains open to further definition, as is the matter of whether districts are being used
to accommodate individuals from other areas of the City.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the Chief Legislative Analyst, with assistance from the City
Administrative Officer, and Los Angeles Homeless Service Authority, provide a report to the
Council detailing the number of Inside Safe operations, the location of the operation, the number
of participants placed in interim housing, and the hotel each operation used.

 I FURTHER MOVE that the Chief Legislative Analyst, with the assistance of the City
Administrative Officer report back on the non-City.resources utilized, apart from funding for the
operation and provision of services related to the expenses of Inside Safe interim housing.




 PRESEN
 MOTION HOUSING & HOMELESSNESS

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, over 60% of Angelenos are renters. Additionally, the vast majority of
renters in Los Angeles are rent burdened, spending over 30% of their income on housing. Simply put, rental
housing in Los Angeles is extremely unaffordable for many, and the situation is getting worse. Beyond the
economic hardship placed on working families, rising rents are also the largest contributing factor to
homelessness. A study by the U.S. Government Accountability Office found that median rent increases of $100 a
month were associated with a 9% increase in homelessness in the areas examined.

Los Angeles adopted the Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO) in 1979 to address some of these issues. The
ordinance limits the allowable rent increase for units covered by the RSO, tying the increase to the Consumer
Price Index (CPI), a measure of inflation, and capping the rent increase to 8%. It also, however, set the minimum
allowable rent increase to 3%, regardless of whether CPI was below 3%, or if it was even negative. In the last 30
years, change in CPI was less than 3% in 23 of the last 30 years. That means rents were increased greater than
inflation 23 times in the last three decades. For RSO units that were occupied for the last 30 years, allowable rent
increases under RSO have led to rents that are 26% higher than they would be if they had been adjusted with CPL

Landlords that pay for gas and/or electricity are allowed to increase rent an additional 1-2% per year even if the
cost of providing these utilities is accounted for in the base rent. A review of the RSO by the Economic
Roundtable found that there was "no connection" between this additional allowed rent increase and the cost of
providing the utilities, and that the 1-2% per year supplemental increase has "substantially exceeded the actual
cost increases" of providing the utilities. Lastly, units that are vacated under RSO face no restriction on rent
increase and can be set to market rate for the next tenant, a process called vacancy de-control, further exacerbatin~
the housing costs in Los Angeles.

The City's COVID-19 rent freeze for RSO units kept rent affordable for thousands of Los Angeles tenants during
the pandemic. However, with the rent freeze set to expire on January 31, 2024, landlords will be able to resume
rent increases. According to guidance from the Los Angeles Housing Department (LAHD), the annual allowable
rent increase under the RSO from February I, 2024 through June 30, 2024 will be 7%, with an additional I% for
gas and I% for electric service if the landlord provides the service to the tenant. Simply put, such an increase
would devastate renters in Los Angeles, and lead to substantial displacement driving countless Angelenos out of
their communities and into homelessness.

With CPI reaching its highest levels in decades, and with hundreds of thousands of tenants already suffering from
devastating economic hardship exacerbated by COVID, all in the midst of a growing homelessness crisis, it is of
the utmost importance that the City adjust the RSO allowable rent increase to safeguard tenants and to stop the
inflow of tenants into homelessness which is devastating our communities.

To this effect, Council authorized LAHD to conduct an economic study on "the formula for setting the RSO Q
annual allowable rent increase( .. ), analyzing, in particular, the recent changes in RSO allowable rent increases ::t::J
in the California cities, including but not limited to, Oakland, Bell Gardens, Antioch, Pomona, Santa Ana, and ·
Oxnard,. including a review of mandated City fees (i.e. RSO, SCEP, LASAN, RecycLA, DWP, etc) impacting ;::::
operating expenses in rental properties" (CF #21-0042-S3). Additionally, another motion was introduced to help!Ja ,I
expedite the completion of this study (CF #23-1134). While this effmi to info1m a pennanent adjustment to the ~
RSO rent increase formula progresses, it is imperative that Council act swiftly to ensure that Los Angeles RSO 7
tenants do not experience a devastating 7-9% rent increase in February, and an ordinance change will be require~

 ~
 OCT 2 5 2023
Given this situation, and the fact that the legislative process for requesting and implementing an ordinance often
takes months, I respectfully submit the following proposal for Council to consider as soon as possible. This
proposal would move back the February 1st, 2023 date by six months, allowing time for the economic study to be
completed and for LAHD to receive and compile the recommendations. It will also allow time for ample outreach
to tenants and landlords about any adopted changes to the RSO. Finally, if the study is completed faster than
anticipated, the suggested date can be moved up as is deemed appropriate.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council request the City Attorney to draft an ordinance disallowing rent
increases for units covered under the Rent Stabilization Ordinance until July 31st, 2024.

 MOTION

 During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Los Angeles took unprecedented steps to
 protect the health of its workforce and residents.

 This included the adoption of ordinance 187,134 (CF 21-0921 ), which required COVID-19 vaccination
 for all current and future City employees. The policy resulted in an 82% vaccination rate among full-time City
 employees.

 While the public health threat has receded and COVID-19 hospitalizations in Los Angeles County
 remain low, the City's vaccine mandate has stayed in place, even as other public entities have moved to rescind
 or ease vaccine requirements for their workforces.

 • In April 2023, Los Angeles County sunset its vaccination requirement for existing and new county
 employees. This followed a related action by the Board of Supervisors to rescind vaccination
 requirements for certain contractors.

 • In May 2023, the Eiden-Harris administration ended its COVID-19 vaccination requirements for
 federal employees and contractors, arguing that with a 98% compliance rate among its federal
 workforce, as well as a significant decline in hospitalizations and fatalities, our nation's pandemic
 response had entered a new phase.

 • The City of Los Angeles' proof of vaccination requirement to enter public buildings sunset with the
 end of its emergency order in February 2023.

 • In August 2023, Los Angeles County's Department of Public Health rescinded its vaccination and
 masking requirements for healthcare personnel in Los Angeles County.

 • In September 2023, LAUSD ended its vaccination requirement for staff, including teachers.

 The City should consider aligning its policy with the County and Federal governments to create
 consistency, mitigate confusion and prevent a competitive disadvantage with other jurisdictions.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the City Administrative Officer, with the
 assistance of the City Attorney, to report on the feasibility, impacts and timeline of repealing Chapter 7,
 Division 4, A1iicle 12 of the Los Angeles Administrative Code, which re uires COVID-19 vaccination ·
 current and future city employees.

 MOTION
 In 1992, the Council adopted Ordinance No. 167689 (CF 88-1249), to regulate the establishment of a hostel
which is defined in Section 12.03 of the Municipal Code as 'a one-family dwelling, boarding or rooming house,
dormitory, apartment hotel or apartment house which is advertised as a hostel or which is listed with any recognized
national or international hostel organization. '

 The Municipal Code does not permit hostels by-right in any zone; instead, they are only permitted either by
Conditional Use or as Public Benefit Projects. Numerous unpermitted hostels are proliferating throughout Council District
10, particularly in the Mid-City neighborhood, much to the frustration of its residents, inasmuch as this commercial use is
operating in residential zones in violation of the Municipal Code, inasmuch as operating a hostel within 500 feet of the
Residential or Agricultural zones is disallowed.

 In addition, there appears to be challenges as to enforcement on the part of City staff, inasmuch as the Department
of Building & Safety (LADBS) has indicated that while violations of commercial uses in residential areas have been
identified, LADBS is unable to cite hostel operators because active construction is not taking place on-site. The Housing
Department has been equally unsuccessful in disallowing hostels, despite efforts by its inspectors.

 At least 28 properties in Council District 10 are operating as illegal hostels which have caused great consternation
and harm to neighbors. Furthermore, there has been heightened calls for service to the Police Department. Records of
service have demonstrated that the operators have done nothing to curb disturbances on the properties. The range of issues
are extensive, and are very serious. Neighbors consistently complain about drug use/overdose, physical violence, thefts
and burglaries, and a range of other crimes such as but not limited to, landlord/tenant disputes, suicide calls and battery,
radiating from these properties.

 The alleged activities occurring as a result of the operation of these illegal hostels are a threat to the public
peace, health, and safety of the community; and a drain on public safety resources. These activities cannot be allowed
to continue, and the City must take immediate corrective action.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council instruct the Planning Department, with the assistance of the
Department of Building and Safety, and Housing Department, and in consultation with the City Attorney, to prepare a
report with recommendations/land use regulatory controls, and thereby take immediate corrective action relative to the
proliferation of illegal hostels.

 I FURTHER MOVE that the Council instruct the Department of Building and Safety, Planning Department,
Police Department, Fire Department, and Housing Department, to immediately create an enforcement taskforce to pilot an
illegal hostels enforcement area in the Mid-City neighborhood and Mid-City Neighborhood Council area.

 I FURTHER MOVE that the Council instruct the City Administrative Officer to prepare a report with
recommendations, with the assistance of the Planning Department, Department of Building and Safety, and Housing
Department, relative to funding allocation and staff resources needed to enforce provisions of the Municipal Code that
disallow hostels by-right in all zones, unless permitted either by Conditional Use or as Public Benefit Projects.

 RESOLUTION

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

 WHEREAS, under the Los Angeles Municipal Code, a restaurant can only be permitted to sell
 alcohol by obtaining a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) or meeting the eligibility requirements for the
 streamlined process known as the Restaurant Beverage Program; and

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

 WHEREAS, the City recognizes that the public health and economic impacts of the COVID-19
 pandemic, and further appreciates the need to facilitate Zoning Code relief to support the local economy
 and livelihood of those living and working in the City; and

 WHEREAS, the Restaurant Beverage Program for sit-down restaurants only is an alternative to
 the CUP process to remove economic and time constraints and promote economic development; and

 WHEREAS, the Restaurant Beverage Program contains more and stricter standards than those
 typically imposed during the CUP process and requires participating restaurants to be subject to
 enforcement procedures; and

 WHEREAS, the City has undertaken an environmental review of the Restaurant Beverage
 Program's provisions and found that will not have a significant effect on the environment (ENV-2018-
 4661-ND), and . further found that aspects of the proposed regulatory relief are exempt from
 environmental review (ENV-2020-3 I 54-CE); and

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

 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that based on the findings outlined in Exhibit B relative to the
 geographic boundaries found in Exhibit A maps, the Restaurant Beverage Program is in conformity with
 public necessity, convenience, general welfare, and good zoning practice.

1. The Restaurant Beverage Program (RBP) will provide a public necessity within the
 areas mapped in Exhibit A by removing financial barriers for sit-down restaurants
 and promoting economic development, in light of the financial impacts associated
 with the COVID-19 pandemic.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 MOTION RULES, ELECilONS, \NTERGOVERNMENTAl RELATION:
The last decade has seen continued improvements to autonomous vehicle (AV) technologies. While these
technologies have continued to gain permission to operate on public streets, the recent decision by the
California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to allow significant expansion of operations to include
autonomous taxi services in San Francisco raises concerns regarding the rate of expansion and need for
thoughtful integration of new technologies to prioritize the safety of people that use roads.

Concerns have been expressed that autonomous vehicles are vulnerable to cyber-attacks, which could
potentially compromise the safety of passengers and other road users by behaving erratically and/or
crashing. They have also shown to experience challenges resulting in inoperability when local 5g
networks are stressed in dense urban environments, particularly near large events. Additionally, while
autonomous vehicles can process large amounts of data to make quick decisions in standard operating
conditions, they lack human judgment and intuition that is critical for navigating urban :_nvironments. For
example, an AV may not be able to anticipate the actions of people, walking, bicycling, driving, or using
the road in another way, leading to collisions.

On August I 0, 2023, the CPUC granted Waymo LLC and Cruise LLC the ability to offer driverless
autonomous vehicle service within San Francisco and parts of San Mateo County. On September 11,
2023, San Francisco City Attorney David Chui filed two formal requests to the California Public Utilities
Commission asking for a rehearing on the resolutions allowing Cruise and Waymo to expand their
paid-passenger services to limit the expansion of operations by autonomous vehicles.

Considering that on September 20, 2023, Waymo announced their plan for expanding autonomous taxi
services in Los Angeles in the coming months, and the DMV's announcement on October 24, 2023 that
Cruise LLC must cease all operations on public roads in California, our City must join San Francisco's
call to state regulators to reign in autonomous operations in urban contexts and identify benchmarking
standards to inform how to expand operations in a thoughtful and careful manner.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council REQUEST the City Attorney to work with San Francisco
City Attorney in support of the application for re-hearing on the California Public Utilities Commission's
decisions on Resolution TL-19145 and TL19144.

 MOTION

The Mangrove property is an approximately 10-acre site adjacent to the civic center area and Little Tokyo
Community in Downtown Los Angeles. Currently, the City and the Los Angeles County Metropolitan
Transit Authority (Metro) own portions of the Mangrove site. The recent completion of the construction of
the Regional Connector Light Rail Project presents the City, Metro, and the Little Tokyo Community with
the opportunity to develop the Mangrove site into a mixed use project that serves the needs of the local
community and the City.

On September 23, 2022 Motion 13-0275-S3 was introduced requesting that the Economic and Workforce
Development Department (EWDD) be given the authority to execute a Memorandum of Understanding
between the City and Metro for the joint development of the Mangrove Site. Council took final action and
approved the item on April 19, 2023. EWDD and Metro would work as joint development partners sharing
costs for the predevelopment of the project at a 70/30 split with EWDD providing the larger financial
contribution from their contractual services account. Since the final council action was taken, EWDD has
finalized the MOU and received all required signatures for its execution.

In order to proceed with the development of the site, the drafting and execution of a Request for
Proposals (RFP) for consulting services is required. The consultant will test a variety of feasible
development options for the Mangrove site, and will help the City and Metro prepare an RFP for a
development team.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the Economic and Workforce Development Department be instructed to
issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) on the Mangrove Property with the intent to contract with a
consultant to develop a scope of work for a future mixed use development project. The contract for
Phase I of the project will cost approximately $300,000 and will run no longer than 12 months in duration.

I FURTHER MOVE that Council

1. Authorize the Controller to:

 a. Accept funds received from the Los Angeles County MetropolitanTransportation Authority
 and deposit into the Economic Development Trust Fund No. 62L.

 b. Establish new account 22Y5AN, titled "Mangrove Project - LACMTA," and appropriate up to
 $300,000 within the Economic Development Trust Fund No. 62L, upon presentation of
 documentation by EWDD.

2. Authorize the General Manager of EWDD, or designee to prepare additional Controller instructions and
any necessary technical adjustments that are consistent with Mayor and Council action to carry out the
intent of this motion, subject to the approval of the City Administrative Officer.
