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.

contain a brief general description of those items to be considered at the meetings. Council Agendas are available in the
Office of the City Clerk, Council and Public Services Division, Room 395, City Hall, 200 North Spring Street, Los Angeles,
CA 90012, and on the City's website at lacity.gov or lacouncilcalendar.com.


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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

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

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.

(2) 23­0842­S3
 GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS COMMITTEE REPORT relative to the
 Fourth Construction Projects Report for Fiscal Year 2023­24.

 Recommendations for Council action, SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL
 OF THE MAYOR:
 APPROVE the recommendations contained in the City Administrative
 Officer (CAO) report dated March 15, 2024, attached to the Council file.


 Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations
 stated in the report include transfers, appropriations, and expenditure
 authority totaling $48.24 million consisting of $30.32 million from various
 special funds, $6.79 million in Municipal Improvement Corporation of Los
 Angeles (MICLA) financing, $6.69 million in Capital and Technology
 Improvement Expenditure Program (CTIEP) funds, $2.77 million from
 grant awards, and $1.67 million from the General Fund. All transfers and
 appropriations are based on existing funds, reimbursements, or revenues.
 There is no additional General Fund impact for operations and
 maintenance costs as a result of the recommendations detailed in
 Attachment No. 4 of the CAO report dated March 15, 2024, attached to
 the Council file.

 Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations
 stated in the report comply with the City’s Financial Policies in that
 appropriations for funds are limited to available cash balances needed to
 fund ongoing maintenance, programming, project shortfalls, and critical
 operational needs in the current budget year.

 Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA debt
 is a General Fund obligation. An appropriation of $3,040,714 in MICLA
 funds (Items P, T and QQQ) would cause the City to borrow $3,040,714 at
 an approximate 5.5 percent interest rate over 20 years. The transfer of
 $2,305,696 in MICLA funds (Items IIII, JJJJ, KKKK, LLLL, QQQQ, and
 RRRR) would cause the City to borrow $2,305,696 at an approximate 5.5
 percent interest rate over 20 years. The total estimated debt service for
 these nine MICLA­financed capital improvement projects totaling
 $5,346,412 is $8,947,685, including interest of approximately
 $3,601,275. During the life of the bonds, the estimated average annual
 debt service is $447,384 over 20 years. The appropriation of $197,445 in
 MICLA funds to Department of General Services' budgetary accounts
 (Items YY and SSS) for Yards and Shops Capital Equipment and electrical
 equipment replacement upgrades, respectively, would cause the City to
 borrow $197,445 at an approximate 5.5 percent interest rate over 10
 years. The total estimated debt service for these two capital equipment
 Friday Items is $261,947,  including
 - April interest
 26, 2024  - of approximately $64,502.
 PAGE During
 7 the
 life of the bonds, the estimated average annual debt service is $26,195
 percent interest rate over 20 years. The total estimated debt service for
 these nine MICLA­financed capital improvement projects totaling
 $5,346,412 is $8,947,685, including interest of approximately
 $3,601,275. During the life of the bonds, the estimated average annual
 debt service is $447,384 over 20 years. The appropriation of $197,445 in
 MICLA funds to Department of General Services' budgetary accounts
 (Items YY and SSS) for Yards and Shops Capital Equipment and electrical
 equipment replacement upgrades, respectively, would cause the City to
 borrow $197,445 at an approximate 5.5 percent interest rate over 10
 years. The total estimated debt service for these two capital equipment
 Items is $261,947, including interest of approximately $64,502. During the
 life of the bonds, the estimated average annual debt service is $26,195
 over 10 years.
 Because future interest rates cannot be fully predicted, actual interest
 rates are dependent on market conditions at the time of issuance. In
 accordance with the City's Debt Management Policy, the City has an
 established debt ceiling to guide in evaluating the affordability for future
 debt. The debt ceiling for non­voted direct debt as a percentage of
 General Fund revenues is 6.0 percent. The 2023­24 Adopted Budget non
 voter­approved debt ratio is 2.54 percent. The issuance of debt for these
 projects will not cause the City to exceed the six percent non voter­
 approved debt limit.
 The issuance of MICLA for the reauthorization of the Los Angeles
 Convention Center Expansion project, which requires an additional
 $500,000, would cause the City to borrow $500,000 at an approximate
 5.5 percent interest rate over 20 years. The total estimated debt service
 for the projects is $1,105,302, including interest of approximately
 $444,863. Actual interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on
 market conditions at the time of issuance.

 Recommendations for Council, SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL OF THE
 MAYOR:


 1. DETERMINE the following:

 a. Based on the whole of the administrative record, that the draft
 ordinance is not a project for purposes of the California
 Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as CEQA does not apply
 to continuing administrative activities or organizational
 activities of government that will not result in specific direct or
 indirect physical changes in the environment, or to the creation
 of government funding mechanisms or other governmental
 fiscal activities that do not commit to any specific project that
 may result in potentially significant environmental
 impacts [California Public Resources Code Sections 21065;
 State CEQA Guidelines Sections 15378(b)(2), (b)(4), and (b)
 (5)]; and, DETERMINE that the draft ordinance only makes
 various technical changes to continuing administrative

 may result in potentially significant environmental
 impacts [California Public Resources Code Sections 21065;
 State CEQA Guidelines Sections 15378(b)(2), (b)(4), and (b)

 various technical changes to continuing administrative
 activities, specifically those pertaining to the funding source for
 abatement after the City Council and the DCP declare a public
 nuisance. On that basis, the Ordinance is not subject to
 CEQA.


 b. Based on the whole of the administrative record, that the
 project is not subject to CEQA under the common­sense
 exemption [CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3)] because it
 can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the
 project may have a significant effect on the environment.


 2. PRESENT and ADOPT the accompanying ORDINANCE, dated
 April 3, 2024, relative to amending Section 91.8906.1.1 of Division

 MOTION

The City has the discretion to authorize and issue franchise agreements to entities that
seek to install, construct, replace, repair, reconstruct, operate, maintain and use the
streets to convey liquids, gasses, and vapors through pipelines. The West Pico Drill Site
is a major production facility operated by the Pacific Coast Energy Company, LP and in
near proximity to homes, schools, businesses and places of worship. Neighborhoods
and communities that are living in the shadows of the site have complained for years
about being exposed to exhaust, pollutants, odors, chemicals, and noise that can
inevitably affect the health of residents. The site has also had several citations for
violations of city code and state law.

The franchise agreements issued by the Board of Public Works, for the transport of oil
and gas through underground pipeline infrastructure connected to the West Pico drill
site expired in March of 2019. It is currently in a "franchise carryover" status. The
carryover status continues the rights and obligations as stated under the expired
agreement pending the City's process to consider new terms for a new/extended
franchise agreement. The City Council adopted a motion (CF:23-1352) in December
2023 asking for an investigation and imposition of all appropriate fines for violations at
this site, options to terminate the franchise agreements for pipelines serving this site,
and a list of all expired pipeline franchises in the city.

It is time for the City to move forward and commit to protecting communities from the
harmful operations of oil and gas drilling and their detrimental consequences on the
environment. The City Council should proceed with the affirmative decision to terminate
the West Pico Drill pipeline franchise agreement and the use of all associated pipeline
infrastructure.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the Board of Public Works deny any further requests from
the Pacific Coast Energy Company, LP to initiate a new franchise agreement for the
transport of oil/gas through pipeline infrastructure connected to the West Pico Drill Site,
including denying the renewal of any "carryover" status for these agreements; and act
immediately to affirmatively terminate the expired franchise agreements for pipelines
serving this site.

 PUBLIC WORKS


 MOTION
The City's current procedures for the design and installation of stars in the Hollywood Walk of
Fame were established by ordinance 111655 in 1960 (Council File 71376 and 71377). The
Bureau of Engineering provides for the installation of a 'metal plaque or plate of individual letters
or figures in a sidewalk commemorating an historical, cultural, or artistic event, location or
personality ... ' through the current A Permit process.

This process is the only Public Works construction permit specifically requiring approval by the
Council. In an effort to create consistency across the permitting activities of the Public Works
Bureaus, removing the extraneous step of Council approval for these installations in the public
right of way is in the best interest of the streamlining workflows.

Additionally, at present, the Council directive in place pursuant to Council File 78-3949 is
outdated, vague, and ripe for potential misuse. Due to the vague nature of the current process,
the Bureau of Engineering will need to update its process for receiving submissions for the Walk
of Fame to reflect this new process.

WE THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council request the City Attorney to prepare an
ordinance amending Municipal Code Section 28.04(d} to remove the clause "with the approval
of the City Council" from this portion of the section in order to read: (d) Nothing in this section
shall apply to the installation of a metal plaque or plate or individual letters or figures in a
sidewalk commemorating an historical, cultural, or artistic event, location or personality for
which the Board of Public Works, with the appi"evaf ef the City Council, has granted a written
permit. (Amended by Ord. No. 109,896, Eff. 9/28/57.)

WE FURTHER MOVE that the Bureau of Engineering be instructed to report back to the Council
with a process updating the one described in Council File 78-3949 for receiving proposed
submissions for Walk of Fame Star installations from the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce or
an individual Council Member consistent with the amended process described above with the
final City approval being at the Board of Public Works.
