FOR COMMENTS. >> Council President: COUNCILMEMBER PADILLA? 2 AND 4, NOT 2 AND 3. >> I. Padilla: CORRECT. TODAY I RISE FOR YOUR SUPPORT ON THESE TWO MOTION THAT'S WILL LEAD TO THE CREATION OF LONG OVERDUE RESOURCES IN THE 6th DISTRICT. ONE OF THEM IS FOR THE IS SEPULVEDA BASIN A VITAL RECREATION AND RESOURCE THAT IS NOT JUST FOR THE SAN FERNANDO VALUE FOR FOR ALL OF LOS ANGELES. IT OFFERS INCAED VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES AND ATTRACTIONS AND THE JAPANESE GARDENS TO THE WILDLIFE RESERVE FEELS LIKE A WILDFIRE LOCATION SOMETIMES. EVEN OUR TREE AND SO MANY MORE THINGS TO ENJOY THERE. BUT YET THERE IS VERY LITTLE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS, OUT THERE FOR THE PUBLIC. SO WHAT DOES THIS MOTION DOES IS IT GIVES CITY DEPARTMENTS THE DIRECTION TO CREATE A DEDICATED WEBSITE MODELED'S GRIFFITH'S PARK THAT WILL SERVE AS A CENTRALIZE WHERE VISITORS ARE PLAN THEIR VISITS. LE WITH THE OLYMPICS AROUND THE CORNER, LOS ANGELES WILL SOON BE ON THE WORLD STAGE WITH MAJOR EVENTS COMING, WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THE WORLD AND OUR RESIDENTS CAN ACCESS THESE TREASURES AND RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES. SO I ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT TO BRING OPPORTUNITY TO ONE OF THE CITY'S GREATEST ASSETS. IN ADDITION, I WANTED TO SAY A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ITEM 4, BECAUSE IT'S IMPORTANT TO ME THAT WE RESTORE AND DELIVER TWO VITAL RESOURCE NZ MY DISTRICT, SPLAT PADS IN THE RECREATION PARK AND THE SOON TO BE BUILT OUT ALIGINI PARK, SUMMERS ARE HOTTER THAN EVER AND THE IMPACT OF RISING HEAT IS BECOMING MORE SEVERE. THEREFORE PUBLIC COOLING PLACE RNZ A NECESSITY BUT LUXURY. YET THIS PAST SUMMER FAMILIES WERE LEFT WITHOUT THEM AND MANY PEOPLE INQUIRY. AT PANORAMA CENTER THE SPLASH PAD HAS BEEN OUT OF SERVICE SINCE 2015 . AND AT ALAGINI PADS, PERMITS ARE ALREADY IN PLACE YET CONSTRUCTION HAS BEEN STALLED DUE TO DELAYS. WE NEED TO INSIST THAT FUTURE AMENITY RIGHT SIDE FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND WE'RE WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY STAY TAKEN CARE OF AS WELL. OUR FAMILIES DESERVE ACCESS TO THESE RESOURCES AND UP TO US TO MAKE SURE THAT BY NEXT SUMMER THESE ARE UP AND RUNNING. SO THIS CALLS FOR REPORT BACK SO WE CAN FINALLY MOVE THESE PROJECTS FORWARD. COLLEAGUES AGAIN, THIS IS ABOUT EQUITY ACCESS AND PROTECTING THE HEALTH OF OUR FAMILIES DURING EXTREME HEAT. I RESPECTFULLY URGE YOUR YES-VOTE. >> Council President: THANK YOU COUNCILMEMBER PADILLA. MADAM CLERK, WHAT IS AVAILABLE TO VOTE ON? >> Clerk: COUNCIL CAN NOW VOTE ON ITEMS 2, 4, AS WELL AS 38 THROUGH 45, AND 47 THROUGH 49 SIR. >> Council President: ALL RIGHT, THOSE ITEMS ARE NOW BEFORE US.

McOsker: THANK YOU, VERY MUCH. ITEM 46 IS AN AMENDMENT TO AN EXISTING FILE, SOMETHING THAT WE ON THE ORIGINAL MOTION WE PUT IN, A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. YEAR AND A HALF AGO, WE HAD ASKED FOR AND ANALYSIS OF THE VARIOUS PLACE THAT'S CODE ENFORCEMENT IS CONTAINED WITHIN OUR MUNICIPAL CODE AND POLICIES OF OUR DEPARTMENTS AND WE FIND OURSELVES, THEN ARGUING, AGAIN A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, THAT THERE ARE DIFFERENT PROCESSES FOR HOW WE ADDRESS NUISANCE PROPERTIES AND WE SEEM TO BE REINVENTING THE WHEEL EVERY SINGLE TIME. AND IT'S A GREAT FRUSTRATION, BECAUSE IT IS A DISSERVICE TO THE PUBLIC, IT'S ALSO A MISUSE OF OUR RESOURCE TO SEE REINVENT THE WHEEL EVERY SINGLE TIME. AND A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, WE HAD ASKED FOR THAT ANALYSIS, WHETHER NOTICE IN C-NAP OR ACE OR IN PUBLIC WORKS PROVISIONS OF THE CODE OR THE VARIOUS OTHER PLACES IT EXISTS. AS WE RECENTLY AS YESTERDAY, I DID YET ANOTHER ONE OFF MOTION ABOUT A NUISANCE PROPERTY AND I JUST THINK IT'S UNSUSTAINABLE. I'M GOING TO THANK COUNCILMEMBER YAROSLAVSKY AND I FOR TOGETHER SAYING GET THIS FILE BACK TO US IN 7 DAYS. 18 MONTHS IS LONG ENOUGH TO WAIT. GET THIS FILE BACK TO US IN SEVEN DAYS. IT'S MOTION, IT'S UNFAIR BECAUSE NOTHING MOVES IN SEVEN DAYS, BUT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT 18 MONTHS, WE OWE OUR CONSTITUENTS, A CLEAR RESPONSE EVERY TIME WE HAVE CODE ENFORCEMENT MATTERS THAT AFFECT ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOODS. AND WE ALSO OWE IT TO OUR FAMILY, OUR CITY FAMILY, TO HAVE EFFICIENT PROCESSES SO WE'RE NOT AGAIN, REINVENTING THE WHEEL EVERY TIME WE DO THIS. I'M JUST URGING AN AYE VOTE, MEMBERS. THANK YOU. >> Council President: THANK YOU SO MUCH, COUNCILMEMBER RAMAN. >> N. Raman: JUST WANTED TO RISE IN SUPPORT OF THIS MOTION, AND WANTED THANK COUNCILMEMBER YAROSLAVSKY AND McOSKER FOR MOVING THIS. THIS IS AN ISSUE WE FACE IN OUR DISTRICT ALL THE TIME AND IT SOMETIMES LEADS TO NATIONAL HEADLINES THAT ARE EMBARRASSING FOR THE CITY. BEYOND BEING A HUGE PUBLIC SAFETY RISK FOR THE NEIGHBORS WHO ARE AROUND IT, IT IS A SOLVABLE PROBLEM AND RATHER THAN HAVING STAFF WORK ON EACH FACILITY ON A ONE-OFF BASIS TAKING HUGE AMOUNT OF TIME, I THINK THERE IS A CITY-WIDE SOLUTION, BUT WE HAVE TO CRAFT IT AND THEN WE HAVE TO PASS IT AND THEN WE HAVE TO GET DEPARTMENTS TO IMPLEMENT IT. AND IT'S HIGH-TIME TO DO THIS. IT'S A MAJOR ISSUE. I WAS GLAD TO SEE YOUR MOTION 18 MONTHS AGO AND I WAS GLAD TO SEE YOUR MOTION, A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO. >> Council President: YES, THANK YOU TO EVERY ONE WHO HAS BEEN PART OF IT. OUR NUISANCE ABATEMENT PROCESS IS AMONG THE MOST CONFUSING AND CONTRADICTORY PROCESSES WE HAVE IN THE CITY. SO LET'S OPEN THE ROLL IN THIS ITEM, CLOSE THE ROLL, TABULATE THE VOTE. >> Clerk: 13 AYES. >> Council President: ALL RIGHT, WHAT'S NEXT? >> Clerk: MR. PRESIDENT, WE'RE STILL--COUNCIL IS STILL WAITING ON THE AMENDMENT FOR ITEM 22, SO THE ONLY THING LEFT IS ITEM 35 AND THAT'S CALLED SPECIAL BY MR. McOSKER FOR A SEPARATE VOTE. >> Council President: ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT, THIS IS CALLED SPECIAL FOR MR. McOSKER, OPEN THE ROLL, CLOSE THE ROLL, TABULATE THE VOTE. >> Clerk: 10 AYES, 3 NOES. >> Council President: WHAT'S NEXT? >> Clerk: THAT WOULD BE ITEM 22 AND THAT IS COUNCIL IS STILL WAITING FOR THE AMENDMENT. ALL RIGHT, DO WE HAVE ANNOUNCEMENTS MEMBERS? MADAM CLERK, I'M LOOKING AT ITEM NUMBER--COPRESENTED BY SOTO-MARTINEZ AND RAMAN SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER YAROSLAVSKY. >> Council President: APPARENTLY I'M THE PROBLEM, I HAVE NOT SIGNED IT. APOLOGIES. >> Clerk: MR. PRESIDENT, THE AMENDMENT HAS BEEN CIRCULATED AND BEFORE THE COUNCIL NOW. >> Council President: ALL RIGHT, MR. SOTO-MARTINEZ. >> H. Soto-Martinez: THANK YOU SO MUCH, MR. CHAIR. AND MY APOLOGIES, WE TRIED TO GET IT IN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, WE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH PUBLIC COMMENT TO GIVE US MORE TIME. I JUST WANT IT SAY, I APPRECIATE COUNCILMEMBER HEARTS TRYING INTENT ON THIS, TO GET CARS AND BICYCLES TO TRAVERSE. I KNOW THIS IS JUST A REPORT, I WANT TO ADD TO THE REPORT. I THINK WHAT THE ORIGINAL MOTION WANTS TO DO IS WIDENING OR MAKE ITING MORE ACCESSIBLE FOR VEHICLES TO ACCESS THE BIKE LANES THAT WE USE. NOW SOMEBODY WHO BIKES AND PART OF THE PURPOSE OF HAVING THAT SORT OF DEMARCATION BETWEEN CARS AND BIKES IS SO THERE IS NO COMPETITION AND PEOPLE CAN FEEL SAFE. HOWEVER I DO KNOW THAT THERE ARE MODELS WHERE BIKE LANES ARE BIGGER, YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT CITIES HAVE BIGGER BIKE LANES. SO THE WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET TO BY ADDING THIS AMENDMENT IS, LOOKING AT OTHER DIFFERENT DATAS AND REPORTS, LOOKING AT MUNICIPALITIES AND SEE HOW THEY DO THAT. SO I WANT TO BROADEN THE SCOPE OF THIS REPORT WITHOUT AK FRIESING THE SAFETY, YOU KNOW, FOLKS THAT TAKE BIKES AND MOVE AROUND, HOWEVER IT IMPACTS, MEASURE H LA, MOBILITY 2035 AND THINGS LIKE THA. I HOPE COUNCILWOMAN IS OKAY WITH THAT. >> Council President: OKAY. COUNCILMEMBER RAMAN. >> N. Raman: I WANT TO ECHO THOSE COMMENTS. AND I WANT TO SAY THAT TT ORIGINAL MOTION AND ITS CONCERN WITH SAFETY VEHICLES AROUND THE CITY IS REALLY IMPORTANT. WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR FIRST RESPONDERS GET TO WHERE THEY NEED TO GO ON TIME. I ALSO WANT TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT CHANGES AND LANE-WIDTH BASED ON EVIDENCE ON WHETHER BIKE LANES SLOW DOWN FIRST RESPONDERS. AND WE ARE NOT LOOKING AT THAT EVIDENCE BEFORE WE ARE MAKING SHE'S CHANGES. WE JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT AS WE'RE MOVING FORWARD ABOUT THE WIDTH OF BIKE LANES THAT WE'RE ALSO LOOKING AT WHETHER CHANGING THESE WITH THESING WILL WIDTHS WILL IMPACT FIRST RESPONDERS. WE HAVE CITIES TO LOOK AT THE IMPACTS AND WE HAVE TO CONSIDER THEM. AND I WANT TO UNDER STORE, H LA WAS A CITIZEN IMPROVED MEASURE. WE'RE MANDATE TODAY FOLLOW IT. AND THE COMBINATION OF HAVING HLA PLUS THIS REGULATION MAY LEAD TO UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES THAT SLOW DOWN TRAFFIC NOT JUST FOR FIRST RESPONDERS BUT FOR ALL KINDS OF VEHICLES. AND WE HAVE NOT CONSIDERED THAT BEFORE WE MOVE FORWARD. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE CONSIDERING HOW THIS WOULD PLAY IN PARALLEL TO HLA WHICH IS A MANDATE THAT WE HAVE TO FOLLOW. THANK YOU. >> Council President: THANK YOU SO MUCH, ALL RIGHT, LET'S OPEN THE ROLL ON THIS ITEM, CLOSE THE ROLL, TABULATE THE VOTE. >> Clerk: 10 AYES, 3 NOES. >> Council President: ALL RIGHT, WHAT'S NEXT? >> Clerk: COUNCIL SIL HAS MOTIONS FOR POSTED AND REFERRAL. >> Council President: THEY ARE POSTED AND REFERRED. >> Clerk: DESK IS CLEAR. >> Council President: ALL RIGHT, ANY ANNOUNCEMENTS? SECOND ROUND OF ANNOUNCEMENTS? SEEING NO ANNOUNCEMENTS, I ASK EVERYBODY TO RISE FOR ADJOURNING MOTIONS. ASK IF THERE ARE ANY ADJOURNING MOTION TO SEE MY LEFT? ARE WE GOOD TO GO MADAM CLERK? >> Clerk: MR. PRESIDENT, JUST TO CLARIFY FOR ITEM 35, WHAT COUNCIL APPROVED IS THE BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT AND THAT WAS, THAT WAS SUBMITTED AND POSTED ONLINE ON COUNCIL FILE 20-0263S3 SO THAT'S JUST TO CLARIFY SIR. >> Council President: ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION, I SEE NO ADJOURNING TO MY RIGHT. NO ADJOURNING MOTIONS FOR TODAY. WE ARE ADJOURNED. THANK YOU SO MUCH, EVERYBODY.
