Robertson Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90034, has generated dozens of set-vice calls for the Police Department in the past two years. The Police Department identifies this prope1ty as a chronic loud party venue and has issued over a dozen administrative citations to the tenant and operator of the entertainment business on the prope1ty ror violations of Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC) Section 41.57 (Loud and Raucous Noise). The owner of the property has been cited for violation of the same code section as well. Despite these interventions, the property has continued to generate noise complaints and service calls to the Police Department. The surrounding neighborhood's quality of life has been severely impacted by the long-standing noise issues at the pro perty. This situation needs to he corrected immediately through the City's land use regulatory controls; therefore, the necessary nuisance abatement investigation(s) need to be initiated by the Planning DepartmenL, with the assistance of the Department of Building and Safety and Police Department, and in consultation with the City Attomey. LAMC Section 12.27.1, Administrative Nuisance Abatement Proceedings, allows the Director of Planning to modify, discontinue,· or revoke any 11se that has resulted in repeated nuisance activities including, but not limited to, disturbances of the peace, illegal drug activity, public drunkenness, d~inking in public, harassment of passersby, gambling, prostitution, sale of stolen goods, public urination, theft, assaults, batteries, acts of vandalism, loitering, ex~ssive littering, illegal parking, excessive loud noises (especially in the late night or early morning hours), traffic violations, curfew violations, lewd conduct, or police detentions and arrests; or adversely impacts nearby uses. It is through the City's land use regulatory controls that community members are protected through the maintenance of the public peace, health, and safety of persons living or working in communities and neighborhoods Citywide. Therefore, it is imperative to address these detrimental quality of life activities, and take corrective action a.s soon as possible, and thereby prevent escalation and drain of City enforcement resources. I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council instruct the Planning Department, with the assistance of the Department of Building and Safety and Police Department, and in consultation with the City Attorney, to investigate any matters ofrepo1ted nuisance activities occurring onsite at the property located at 2512 S. Robertson Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90034; and there:,fter. the Zoning Administrator may initiate Administrative Nuisance Abatement Proceedings per Municipal Code Section 12.27. I; Chapter IA Section I38.6.2, and prepare the necessary reports and recommendations, conduct the required public hearings, and thereby protect the public peace, health, and safety or the community by imposing corrective conditions to address the reported nuisance activities that are occurring onsite at the property.

Renowned as one of Los Angeles' most walkable and unique shopping, dining, and entertainment destinations, this corridor, managed and operated by the Melrose Avenue Business Improvement District, has served as a hub of creative expression, street culture, and artistic innovation for over four decades. Since the 1980s, the Melrose Arts District has been synonymous with the City's alternative edge-home to fashion-forward boutiques, iconic comedy theaters like The Groundlings, independent record stores, and mural-covered walls that have helped define Los Angeles' youth identity across generations. The area was central to the punk and goth scenes of the '80s and now influences a new wave of digital-age style, attracting trendsetters, creatives, and art lovers from around the world. The District's street art scene reflects Los Angeles' vibrant and diverse cultural landscape. Thousand~ of murals are painted each year across walls. roll-down doors, electrical vaults, and alleyways-transfonning the neighborhood into a living, ever-evolving outdoor gallery. Renowned artists such as WRDSMTH, Colette Miller. Corie Mattie, KarPart, Mr. Brainwash, David Flores, Punk Me Tender, Jules Muck, and Kai Aspire contribute regularly to this dynamic scene, drawing international visitors who travel specifically to view and photograph their work. From celebrity homages to nostalgic iconography and urban storytelling. the murals of Melrose Avenue offer something for everyone. reinforcing the District's status as a destination for street art tourism and creative exploration. With vibrant street views. bustling small businesses, and an undeniable visual energy, the Melrose Arts District has become an essential part of the City's cuJtw·al and economic identity. In recognition of the Melrose Arts District's role in defining Los Angeles' creative spirit and its ongoing contributions to arts, culture, and community, it is appropriate that the stretch of Melrose Avenue between Fairfax Avenue and Highland Avenue be recognized. The Department of Transportation should be instructed to erect signage reeognizing the established area of the Melrose A venue Business District, which operates and manages the Melrose Arts District. I THERFORE MOVE that the Department of Transponation, in consultation with Council District 5, be directed to erect signage along Melrose Avenue between Fairfax and Highland recognizing the Melrose Arts District and it~ boundaries. 0 PRESENTED BY :x:r C) ~ SECONDED B Y : ~ ~ $; "UG l 5 2025 I  PUBLIC WORKS MOTION For more than 30 years, Maryanne Hayashi has served as the steadfast Executive Director of tl1e Central City Action Committee (CCAC) in Angelino Heights, dedicating herself to safe, enriching programs for neighborhood youth, including homework tutoring, life skills training, field trips, and mentorship. Under Ms. Ilayashi's leadership, CCAC has become a cornerstone institution that supports low-income children and creates opportunities for generations of local families. Her commitment has been recognized by community celebrations and honors, including acknowledgment from the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. Throughout her career, Ms. Hayashi has worked tirelessly to secure funding, build partnerships, and advocate for resources that strengthen CCAC's ability to serve at-risk youth. She has mentored countless young people who have pursued higher education, developed professional careers, and become leaders in their communities. Her leadership has strengthened ties among CCAC, local schools, public safety partners, and community-based organizations, creating a network of support for the City's youth. Maryanne Hayashi's decades of service have improved the lives of those directly involved with CCAC and contributed to the overall safety, stability, and vibrancy of the community. I THEREFORE MOVE that the intersection of Bellevue Avenue and Boston Street in Angelino Heights be designated as "Maryanne Hayashi Square,'' and that the Department of Transportation be directed to fabricate and install pem1anent ceremonial signage at this location in her honor. I FURTHER MOVE that the Department of Transportation be authorized to make technical corrections or clarifications to effectuate the intent of this motion.

In the City, the Department of Building and Safety and the Bureau of Sanitation are current1y using QR oodes to improve service delivery practices and to provide information on programs. The City of Syracuse, New Yodc uses signs with QR codes to foform residents of capital projects being implemented in their community and Portland, Oregon has added QR codes to street signs to provide users with information about nearby services and attractions. The Department ofTransportation (LADOT) does not currently include QR codes on street signs. Doing so could benefit the public by providing clear instructions on how to comply with parking restrictions on a given street segment. The technology has the potential to enhance navigation, improve access to information, and offer an additional way for the City to connect with the public. It is important that the LADOT examine the feasibility of adding QR codes to street signs and the benefits this may bring to the public. I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council instruct the Department of Transportation to report in 60 days on the feasibility of adding secure Quick Response (QR) codes to street signage to provide the public with digital information and opportunities to access transportation programs and services.
