~ MO li@~ULAR COUNCIL AGENDA TO BE POSTED #5~ J
On April 17, 2024, Council approved actions relative to additional funding and contract amendments for the
environmental assessment and cleanup of the Slauson Wall Site (Site) located at 5867 South Los Angeles Street in Council
District 9 (C.F. 09-2665-S7). Clean-up efforts are being implemented but additional funding is needed to support the work
that is being administered by the Bureau of Sanitation (LASAN), with assistance from the Los Angeles Housing Department
(LAHD), and Economic and Workforce Development Department (EWDD).
In 2018, the City, through LARD, entered into a contract with the State of California Department of Toxic
Substances Control (DTSC) (Contract No. C-130849) to provide oversight of the remediation activities. An additional
$198,483 in funding is needed for DTSC to continue providing oversight services.
Separately, LASAN needs $95,200 in additional funding to contract with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., to
continue performing environmental assessment and remediation activities on the Site.
The City is also working with the adjacent property owner, Brotherhood Crusade, to secure Community
Development Block Grant funding from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to
finance the future development of the Site's Park component. As part of the application process, HUD requires that a Phase
I Environmental Site Assessm_ent (ESA) dated within the last 180 days be provided. The current Phase I ESA for the Site
does not meet the 180-day requirement and the cost estimate to update it is $4,800.
Lastly, the Site is currently under the jurisdiction of LAHD but EWDD is the lead implementing department. As
such, EWDD should be responsible for managing the Site. Approval of a non-financial transfer of jurisdiction is needed to
transfer the property from LARD to EWDD.
Council action is needed to: approve a total of $298,483 in additional funding to support the clean-up efforts as
described above; authorize LAHD to amend a contract with DTSC for related services; authorize LASAN to contract with
Stantec for related services, and authorize a non-financial transfer of jurisdiction of the Site from LARD to EWDD.
I THEREFORE MOVE that Council approve funding in the amount of $198,483 from the LAHD Low- and
Moderate-Income Housing Fund No. 55J, Account 43N467, for use by LAHD for site assessment and oversight services
related to the Site and authorize LAIID to amend Contract C-130849 with the State of California Department of Toxic
Substances Control, subject to the approval of the City Attorney as to form.
I FURTHER MOVE that Council authorize the Controller to Appropriatefl'ransfer funding from the Los Angeles
Housing Department (LAHD) to the Bureau of Sanitation (LASAN) for use by LASAN for environmental site assessment
and remediation activities on the Slauson Wall Site (Site) located at 5867 South Los Angeles Street as follows:

financial transfer of jurisdiction and control of the City-owned Site located at 5930 S. Wall Street, Los Angeles, CA 90003

Following the introduction of CF 23-1334, the Department of Recreation and Parks was able to identify approximately
$371,000 dollars for a Master Plan for the South Griffith Park Plan Area. In addition to this funding, a Federal earmark is
also dedicated to completion of the Master Plan, which will include a programmatic environmental document as well as
other environmental documentation. Front funding is needed to fully cash-flow the Master Plan as the Federal earmark is
reimbursement-based.
I THEREFORE MOVE that $300,000 be transferred/ appropriated as follows: $150,000 be transferred/ appropriated
from the CD4 Council Projects line item in the General City Purposes Fund No. 100-56, Account No. 0O0A28, and

I MOVE that the Council Action of November 4, 2025 relative to Planning and Land Use
Management Committee Report relative to a proposed Ordinance amending Chapter IX of the Los Angeles
Municipal Code (LAMC) to incorporate by reference certain portions of the 2025 Edition of the California
Building Standards Code (CF 25-1217), BE AMENDED to ADOPT technical RECOMMENDATIONS
to add and revise various sections in the proposed Ordinance, all of which have been uploaded to the
Council File in a Department of Building and Safety report dated 11/6/25, as follows:
1. The 'added sections' remove several Municipal Code sections that are no longer needed, inasmuch
as those sections are regulated under the California Building Standards Code.
2. The 'changed sections' includes revised language to provide clarifying language and revisions to
reference correct sections of the Municipal Code.
3. Request the City Attorney to prepare and present the draft ordinance, including the environmental
clearance, that incorporates the Department of Building and Safety technical recommendations
dated 11/6/25, uploaded to CF 25-1217, which help ensure that our local amendments to the
California Building Standards Code (CBSC) can be justified based on local climatic, geological,
topographic, or environmental factors, as required by California Building Standards Law (Health
and Safety Code, Division 13, Part 2.5). Additionally, some changes are necessary to align our
amendments with the 2025 edition of the CBSC. Furthermore, several local amendments are
deleted where the CBSC already includes equivalent or more restrictive provisions.

In September 2018, the City acquired two Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA/LA) parcels on Sherman
Way to construct the Reseda Skate Facility. The highly anticipated facility will feature both an indoor ice rink and
outdoor roller skate area. The indoor ice skating facility will offer public seating and include a 26,800
square-foot skating rink with an 85-foot by 200-foot ice surface, cooling infrastructure, ice grooming equipment
storage, locker rooms for two teams, restrooms and office space. The outdoor roller area wilt include a seating
area, bioswale, trees and lighting. An adjacent parking lot will provide approximately 125 parking spaces.
The 1996 ballot measure for the Proposition K- LA for Kids Program included a specified line item for the
Reseda Skate Facility that partially funded the acquisition and construction of an ice hockey and roller blading
facility. In 2018, Council District 3 secured the necessary funding to proceed with construction and entered into
a public private partnership with the LA Kings. Upon completion, the Department of Recreation and Parks will
own the facility, while the LA Kings will manage the facility through a limited liability company, JV Ice Reseda,
LLC, pursuant to the terms of an Operation and Management Agreement (Agreement} .
The community has long envisioned the development of a skate facility in Reseda. To ensure there are dedicated
funds to maintain the facility for years to come, an account should be established now. This account would
accept donations and other deposits to cover costs and expenses for the Reseda Skate Facility that are not
required to be provided by JV Ice Reseda under the Agreement. Potential uses of these funds include
non-normal, non-routine maintenance and repair of equipment, including to the zamboni/ice resurfacing
machine and chillers essential for ice rink operations; providing youth programs and activities to supplement
those required under Section 8 of the Agreement, including no-cost or low-cost renta Is and lessons for local
youth, with a preference to the extent possible to City of Los Angeles youth who reside in the San Fernando
Valley; and staffing costs for operating the facility as a cooling center during extreme heat events, and for
attendance at additional public engagement events to build awareness about the rink and its programming,
including Reseda Rising and other local events on Sherman Way and in the San Fernando Valley.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council authorize the Department of Recreation and Parks to:
l. Establish a new APPR Account under Fund No. 302, Department No. 89, and Account Number 89746C
for the Reseda Ice Skate Rink;
2. Accept and deposit funds including donations into Fund No. 302, Department No. 89 and Account
Number 89746( for Reseda Ice Skate Rink activities including improvements, maintenance,
community subsidies, events, and programs that supplement those required to be provided under the

successor agreement; and,
3. Make any corrections or classifications to the above instructions, including any new instructions, to
effectuate the intent of this Motion, and including any corrections and changes to fund or account

MOTION
The Marvin Braude Bike Trail is a majestic and beloved 22-milc bicycle path that tuns
along Los Angeles' shoreline, providing coastal access and recreation opportunities to thousands
of cyclists, pedestrians and users on a regular basis.
A recent project at 4311 S. Lincoln Boulevard; Los Angeles, CA, 90292, consisting of the
construction of a new freestanding cinder block wall, has blocked a critical access point to the
bike trail and Yvonne B. Burke Park, thereby depriving the community in Council District 11 and
beyond of a decades-long access point.
As a result, the residents of Council District 11 and the broader community across the
County and beyond that relied on this access point arc forced to travel on dangerous and
inhospitable thoroughfares like Lincoln Boulevard to access the trail at alternate points.
The new wall was constructed as a by-right project, receiving a Coastal Exemption (CEX)
from the Planning Department and pennit from the Department of Building and Safety as a
ministerial action. As such, the project was approved without the knowledge or input of the
impacted communities or Council District 11 office.
It is through the City's land use reg11latory controls that community members arc
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 assess this
project's impacts on open space, access to public spaces and our coast, traffic, and the safety of
pedestrians and cyclists by revoking its Coastal Exemption, as these environmental impacts have
not been analyzed.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council instruct the Planning Department to revoke the
issuance of the Coastal Exemption (Case No. ADM-2025-14-CEX) for the project located al 431 l
S. Lincoln Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA, 90292 and associated with Permit No.
24020-10000-02392, inasmuch as the construction of the new freestanding cinder block wall's
environmental impacts have not been analyzed, or community engagement occurred
I FURTHER MOVE that, upon the revocation of Coastal Exemption (Case No.
ADM-2025-14-CEX), the Council inslruct the Department of Building and Safety and the
Department of City Planning, in consultation with the City Attorney, to take any necessaiy
actions to restore coastal access that existed prior to the construction of the cinder block wall.

PUBLIC SAFt:TY
MOTION
Human Trafficking and prostitution remain serious issues in the City, in particular in South
Los Angeles and parts of the San Fernando Valley. For years, the Adopted Budget has allocated
funding within the Police Department (LAPD) Sworn Overtime Budget to fund Human
Trafficking Task Forces in LAPD's Operations - South Bureau and Operations - Valley Bureau to
combat thes~ issues. These Task Forces couple sworn officers with service providers in an attempt
to address the problem in a holistic manner, not one solely driven by criminal enforcement.
Recent news articles have highlighted the continued problem of human trafficking and
prostitution in the City, and the difficulties faced by law enforcement and victim's advocates in
stopping human trafficking. In order to ensure that Council and the public are aware of the full
scope of the problem, the LAPD should be directed to report on the work of its Human Trafficking
Task Forces over recent years.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the Police Department BE INSTRUCTED to report with a
status update and an overview of the work done by the Operations - South Bureau and Operations
- Valley Bureau Human Trafficking Task Forces over the last five years, including the number of
arrests made annually and the number ofrescues of trafficked individuals made by the Department.

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 7, 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.
