 Requests for reasonable modification or accommodation from individuals with disabilities, consistent with the

 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 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.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 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.

 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.




Friday - November 14, 2025 - PAGE 3
 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.

 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.

 MOTION

The 5th Council District is fortunate to be home to several neighborhoods with tree canopy coverage that
exceeds the canopy average of Los Angeles County. As a result, the district needs more funding than that
which has already been allocated to maintain the health and integrity of our urban forest.

I THEREFORE MOVE that $60,000 in the Council District 5 portion of the Council Discretionary Street
Furniture Fund No. 43D, Dept. 50 be transferred / appropriated to the Street Services Fund No. I 00-86,
Account No. I 090 (Salaries - Overtime) to provide additional tree trimming and maintenance services for
FY 2024-2025.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Bureau of Street Services be authorized to make any corrections,
clarifications, or revisions to the above fund transfer instructions, including any new instructions, in order
to effectuate the intent of this Motion, and including any corrections and changes to fund or account
numbers; said corrections / clarifications / changes may be made orally, electronically, or by any other
means.

 MOTION DA TOBE POSTED #53 /
The Department of Public Health recently found that 51.4 percent of households in the city of Los Angeles are
living with "housing burden," spending 30 percent or more of their incomes on housing costs. In addition, 27.5
percent of those households are dealing with a "severe housing burden," spending 50 percent or more of their
incomes on housing. For those tenants, any small setback can lead to an accumulation ofrental debt. This crisis
disproportionately affects Black and Brown Angelenos at the lowest income levels. Unpaid rent debt has and will
continue to lead to evictions, and often small amounts of rental assistance are enough to stop the eviction to
homelessness pipeline.

In 2025, Council District 1 is averaging 99 eviction notices filed each and every week, with an average of $3,656 in
unpaid rent for each notice. While not all notices lead directly to eviction, a Public Counsel and UCLA School of
Law study estimates that the real number of evictions could be triple that, as many tenants seemingly vacated their
units simply by the threat of eviction by their landlords. Anything the City can do to stabilize these tenants is
paramount.

The FamilySource System (FSS) centers provide vital emergency assistance and supportive services, case

 MOTION

The City Attorney's Office has retained Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher to represent the City of Los
Angeles in the LA Alliance for Human Rights case. In Federal Court, it was noted that the firm
has assigned 15 attorneys, ranging from Junior Associates to Senior Partners, each billing at a
rate of $1,295 per hour. The City Attorney's Office also has staff assigned on the matter to
protect the City's interest.

In May 2025, the City Council approved a three-year contract with Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher for
up to $900,000. After the initial funding was exhausted, the City Council authorized an additional
$5 million in contract authority in September 2025.

The latest Financial Status Report shows that the City Attorney's Office has overspent its
outside counsel allocation by $34.17 million. This is in addition to a further $12 million request
submitted under Council File 25-1225.

It is important that Council understands the scope of work and personnel that are involved in all
contracts with the City, including outside counsel agreements that have a direct impact on the
General Fund.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council REQUEST the City Attorney's Office to report on
the contract with Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher for representation in the LA Alliance for Human
Rights case. This report should include the complete scope of work, a breakdown of the
personnel and associated costs for each individual attorney, and a detailed account of internal
City Attorney staff dedicated to the case.

I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council REQUEST the City Attorney's Office to report on all
outside counsel requests.

 AGING AND DISABILITY
Across the country, undocumented veterans who have served in the United States Armed Forces continue to face the
threat of deportation, and many have already been deported due to gaps in federal immigration policy and barriers to
accessing legal relief. Many of these individuals have lived in the United States since childhood, enlisted to defend our
nation, and returned home with service-connected trauma, yet now find themselves vulnerable to removal proceedings and
separated from the very country they served.

The City has long recognized the need to support immigrant and undocumented veterans, including those who have been
deported and are navigating complex legal pathways to return home. A recent motion introduced by Council District 14,
Council File l 7-0046-S4, helped to identify a potential one million dollars in the Unappropriated Balance that could be
used to advance these efforts. As we look to enhance immigrant legal services, there is an opportunity for the City to
direct resources toward legal support for deported veterans as well.

I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council transfer $250,000 from the Unappropriated Balance Fund 100/58, Equipment
Expenses, and Alterations and Improvements, to the Community Investment for Families Fund 100/21, Account No.
003040, Contractual Services to increase funding for legal services, case management, and related support for detained
and non-detained United States military veterans provided by the RepresentLA program.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Council instruct the Community Investment for Families Department, with the assistance of
the City Attorney, to prepare and present an amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Los
Angeles and the Los Angeles County Department of Consumer and Business Affairs to allocate one-time funding of
$250,000 to provide detained and non-detained merits-blind removal defense representation, affirmative immigration
relief representation, and outreach and education to veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces, who reside or intend to reside in
the City of Los Angeles, through the RepresentLA Program Administrator.

I FURTHER MOVE that the Community Investment for Families Department, with the assistance of the City
Administrative Officer, be authorized to make any corrections or revisions to the above instructions, including any new
instructions, in order to effectuate the intent of this Motion, including any corrections and changes to fund or account
numbers; said corrections/clarifications/changes may be made orally, electronically or by any other means.

 PUBLIC WORKS
 MOTION
 The ongoing theft and vandalism of the City's street lighting network remains a persistent problem across
Los Angeles. This issue not only leaves Angelenos in the dark, but significantly increases the City's maintenance
costs. Despite the Bureau of Street Lighting's (BSL) concerted effort to fortify the network, copper wire theft
continues to occur frequently, and few strategies have effectively deterred this vandalism. One approach, however,
has shown success: the deployment of solar-to-battery streetlights. In Westlake North and Historic Filipinotown
neighborhoods, BSL has converted more than 30 residential blocks to solar-to-battery lighting, resulting in a
notable reduction in vandalism and theft.

 Traditional streetlights are powered by copper wire housed in more than 1,000 miles of underground steel
pipes, called electrical conduit, that connect each street light to the power grid. Solar-to-battery lights, by contrast,
operate independently, eliminating its reliance on both copper wire and the conduit network, and opens a unique
opportunity for the City to repurpose the available conduit network and infrastructure for other potential benefits.

 Repurposing the conduit network could be transformative, especially given its scale, ubiquity, and value;
installing new underground conduit can exceed more than $1 million per mile. Some plans for the conduit network
include developing a fully-fortified secondary power transmission for upgraded electrical vehicle (EV) stations;
deploying fiber optics networks to help connect communities to the forthcoming State Middle Mile Broadband
Network; and expanding communications cabling to augment the City's smart transportation network.

 Additional opportunities include creating partnerships with private and non-profit entities to utilize the
conduit network. Demand for electrical power and communications bandwidth in the public right-of-way continues
to grow, and many public and private entities are increasingly looking to use this infrastructure. Exploring this
option could bring new benefits to communities while simultaneously generating additional revenue to maintain the
street lighting network.

 Over the years, the BSL has demonstrated their capacity to deliver innovative solutions, successfully
delivering over 800 EV charging stations and more than 700 miles of underground high capacity fiber conduit and
cabling. BSL is well positioned to explore alternative strategies for the conduit network in the City.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council INSTRUCT the Bureau of Street Lighting (BSL), with
assistance of the City Administrative Officer (CAO), the Department of Public Works Bureaus, the Department of
Transportation (LADOT), the Information Technology Agency (ITA), the Police Department (LAPD), and the Fire
Department (LAFD), to report back in 45 days with the following information:

 • Determine the total quantity and locations of street lighting electrical conduit available as a result of
 solar-to-battery conversions;
 • Identify street light locations frequently targeted by vandalism and theft, and recommend opportunities to
 convert these locations to solar-to-battery lighting;
 • Evaluate the condition and suitability of vacated street lighting electrical conduit for new uses; and
 • Develop recommendations to repurpose the conduit network to support other City needs.

 I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council INSTRUCT the BSL, with the assistance of the City Attorney
and CAO, report back in 45 days with findings that explore the feasibility of utilizing vacated electrical conduit to
lease to private organizations and then profit sector.

 PLANNING &U\NO USE MANAGcMENT PUBLIC SAFETY
 MOTION

 Across Los Angeles, neighborhoods face ongoing public safety and
quality-of-life disruptions caused by the proliferation of residential properties being
used for large-scale commercial events, otherwise known as "Party Houses." These
gatherings routinely draw hundreds of attendees and demand late-night repeated
responses from the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) and follow-ups from the
Department of Building and Safety (LADBS). Issues include excessive noise,
disruptive behavior, and obstruction of the public right-of-way.

 Although the City has adopted ordinances that authorize administrative
penalties to address this issue, the current flat-rate fine structure is insufficient to
effectively deter Party House violators. This is evidenced by ongoing community
complaints as well as recent City Attorney litigation. Furthermore, limited City
staffing capacity at LAPD and LADBS often results in delayed or unaddressed reports.

 The City's current penalty structure begins with an administrative fine of $100
for a first violation, and gradually escalates to $8,000 for a sixth and all subsequent
violations. The violation count then resets after a period of 12 consecutive months
without a violation. These fine amounts are woefully inadequate to deter repeat
violators who enjoy lucrative financial returns from the rental, lease, and/or
ownership of Party Houses and calculate the City's fines as a minor business cost.

 A fundamental purpose of the assessment of administrative fines and
penalties is to serve as a deterrent against unlawful conduct and to encourage
compliance with the Los Angeles Municipal Code. To meet this objective as it relates
to Party Houses, the City must explore stronger penalties and more substantial fines.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the City Administrative
Officer (CAO), with assistance from the City Attorney, the Los Angeles Police
Department (LAPD), the Department of Building and Safety (LADBS), Office of
Finance, and the Department of City Planning, to report back on options for
increasing fines and penalties for repeat "party house" violations, including but not
limited to:

 1. Establish an updated fine structure and formula that takes into account the
 assessed market value of the subject property, the scale and impact of the
 violation, the commercial nature of the violation, land use designation,
 geographic location (e.g., increased if in higher fire severity zones), and/or the
 cumulative number of party house-related violations;
 2. Establish penalties that eliminate the hosting capacity of the subject property,
 including, but not limited to, coordination with the Department of Water and
 Power to disconnect or restrict service, and action by LADBS to board and



 N-
 NOV 1 4 2025
 secure the property, when there is evidence of chronic, unpermitted
 commercial use in a residential zone;
3. Establish a process for investigating and making an administrative
 determination of whether a subject residential property is being used for a
 revenue generating purpose; and
4. Implement a cost recovery mechanism, based on a percentage of the
 property's assessed market value or a multiple of an event host's estimated
 net revenue, to fully recoup all costs associated with City intervention ,
 including, but not limited to, LAPD and LADBS overtime, and ensure effective
 enforcement of collection through mechanism as a /"en on the property.

 MOTION
 Governor Newsom signed Senate Bill (SB) 707 into law on October 3, 2025. This bill makes
 significant changes to the Brown Act, intending to increase public participation and expand remote
 access to public meetings. As the City meets the definition of an eligible legislative body (a city
 council with a population of 30,000 or more), current policies and procedures must be updated to
 comply with the new requirements.

 The new law mandates several key actions, including, but not limited to the following: (I) the
 City must offer remote participation in meetings via a two-way telephonic service or a two-way
 audiovisual platform; (2) the City has a new responsibility for public outreach, requiring reasonable
 efforts to encourage residents that do not traditionally participate in public meetings to attend; and
 (3) the City must commit to offering translation services, both during public meetings and on the
 City's dedicated webpages. It is important to note that these are only a portion ·o f the changes enacted
 by the bill. The implementation date for SB 707 is July 1, 2026; therefore, the City must move
 diligently to fully understand and fulfill all new requirements by this deadline.

 I THEREFORE MOVE that Council request the City Attorney and instruct the City Clerk to
report on the impacts Senate Bill 707 will have on current City procedures and the necessary changes
the City would be required to complete to be in compliance with the new adaptations to the Brown
Act.

 I FURTHER MOVE that Council instruct the Information Technology Agency to report on
the costs for necessary software and installation to be in compliance with Senate Bill 707, a strategic
plan for build-out, and the estimated time required to update current systems.
