Daffodil Tyminski: Though we have some applications for the rest of the spots on the neighborhood Committee which I think will fill out this month it's just people were traveling last month and couldn't make the meeting yeah um. 184 00:15:13.110 --> 00:15:15.570 Yolanda Gonzalez: You know, can I make a suggestion daffodil. 185 00:15:15.750 --> 00:15:16.380 Daffodil Tyminski: sure. 186 00:15:16.650 --> 00:15:27.030 Yolanda Gonzalez: For those people that are new to the neighborhood committee what we ought to have is the little pow pow so um we can direct them on how the neighborhood committees. 187 00:15:28.830 --> 00:15:39.300 Yolanda Gonzalez: should work and artwork based on the Charter and based on our bylaws it's very important how we how they know that you can accomplish things. 188 00:15:40.770 --> 00:15:41.310 Daffodil Tyminski: um. 189 00:15:43.770 --> 00:15:44.400 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay. 190 00:15:44.940 --> 00:15:45.960 Yolanda Gonzalez: We can have a little. 191 00:15:47.280 --> 00:15:49.290 Yolanda Gonzalez: get together and maybe have. 192 00:15:51.150 --> 00:15:53.550 Yolanda Gonzalez: Somebody from done and. 193 00:15:54.630 --> 00:16:00.420 Yolanda Gonzalez: You know, direct the new commerce and of course i've been on the committee for so many years. 194 00:16:00.450 --> 00:16:00.930 Because like yeah. 195 00:16:02.100 --> 00:16:04.950 Daffodil Tyminski: So the city has prevented us from meeting in person. 196 00:16:05.100 --> 00:16:15.360 Daffodil Tyminski: And it's all have a conversation with you offline because it's so complicated, but in spirit, I totally agree we'll figure out a way to do it right, we can't do it is we all would want to do it. 197 00:16:16.560 --> 00:16:17.160 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm. 198 00:16:17.220 --> 00:16:18.720 Yolanda Gonzalez: Like yeah yeah yeah yeah. 199 00:16:20.460 --> 00:16:29.820 Daffodil Tyminski: So we have a bunch of folks waiting and I think we have enough I William i'm sure when he joins us i'll keep an eye on and we can promote him panel, but why don't we call the meeting to order. 200 00:16:30.180 --> 00:16:37.830 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay um I am going to share my screen here hold on a SEC. 201 00:16:40.560 --> 00:16:41.460 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm. 202 00:16:46.920 --> 00:16:48.630 Good session all panelists okay. 203 00:16:57.300 --> 00:16:58.500 Daffodil Tyminski: Can

here to get the. 206 00:17:10.110 --> 00:17:14.280 Daffodil Tyminski: This is much easier, with two people to be able to see who is coming to the meeting. 207 00:17:19.380 --> 00:17:34.740 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, why don't we call the meeting to order, it is 833 For those of you just attending you should see all of our names, my name is daffodil i'm the Chair, but everyone else's name should be

00:17:42.090 present. 211 00:17:44.100 --> 00:17:46.710 Daffodil Tyminski: Rita we know, is not here, Sergio. 212 00:17:53.280 --> 00:17:56.520 Daffodil Tyminski: Sergio, let us know you're here, you have to unmute yourself. 213 00:17:56.910 --> 00:17:58.860 Daffodil Tyminski: we'll come back daryl okay. 214 00:18:01.980 --> 00:18:02.910 Daffodil Tyminski: Who i've seen. 215 00:18:06.210 --> 00:18:06.870 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm. 216 00:18:08.490 --> 00:18:11.520 Daffodil Tyminski: Darrell just let us know if you're here, William. 217 00:18:15.750 --> 00:18:17.910 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, I don't think William is on cassie. 218 00:18:18.540 --> 00:18:20.610 Daffodil Tyminski: Here hi cassie welcome. 219 00:18:21.060 --> 00:18:21.720 Cassie B: hi Thank you. 220 00:18:22.830 --> 00:18:23.400 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm. 221 00:18:25.260 --> 00:18:28.920 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay Darrell I can see you're here so just raise your hand. 222 00:18:30.270 --> 00:18:32.640 Daffodil Tyminski: If you can't unmute. 223 00:18:34.590 --> 00:18:41.340 Daffodil Tyminski: And I think we won't hand raised in the audience just sit tight we'll get to it in one second and we'll just have to do some administrative stuff first. 224 00:18:45.270 --> 00:18:51.360 Daffodil Tyminski: And so we you know I let's move on to item three, in terms of regular meeting time. 225 00:18:52.710 --> 00:18:54.720 Daffodil Tyminski: I just wanted to raise a couple points on this. 226 00:18:55.950 --> 00:19:01.320 Daffodil Tyminski: I wanted to have this on Friday mornings that seemed to work for folks and when I was discussing it. 227 00:19:01.590 --> 00:19:09.660 Daffodil Tyminski: informally, and then, of course, last month, we had hiccup with getting them started, and I was actually doing it from Barbados, so it was a little hard to navigate the logistics. 228 00:19:10.080 --> 00:19:21.480 Daffodil Tyminski: But i'd like to keep this time i'd like to keep our time as close to the Ad calm meeting as possible, so that when we do whatever we do, it says fresh to the dnc meetings as possible. 229 00:19:23.220 --> 00:19:32.970 Daffodil Tyminski: I think this is OK, with everyone I moved it back about a half hour, because we have some folks about 8am was too early, but if anyone has any problems with this time just let me know and we can work on it going forward. 230 00:19:34.260 --> 00:19:40.350 Daffodil Tyminski: My hope in the committee is that we really try to be responsible to issues coming up in the neighborhoods and so. 231 00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:49.380 Daffodil Tyminski: I would say, for everyone in your respective neighborhoods where you live just reach out to your neighbors and try to figure out, you know what's important what's going on. 232 00:19:49.890 --> 00:19:59.190 Daffodil Tyminski: The things that we put on this month were things that i've gotten many calls on so it seemed to me that if i'm getting them other folks are probably interested in them as well. 233 00:20:00.750 --> 00:20:07.380 Daffodil Tyminski: We are going to have a few more members after this Nancy for meeting, and so you know we'll be including more areas. 234 00:20:09.060 --> 00:20:14.760 Daffodil Tyminski: Does anyone have any on the committee anyone have anything to say on that topic questions or problems. 235 00:20:17.190 --> 00:20:17.880 Yolanda Gonzalez: i'm okay. 236 00:20:18.690 --> 00:20:21.990 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, all right, seeing no hands and if i'm oh here's William. 237 00:20:23.220 --> 00:20:25.860 Daffodil Tyminski: It is 836 flame is joining. 238 00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:31.920 Charles Rosin: I have one thought, though, the Japanese if we're going to have an in person meeting. 239 00:20:32.340 --> 00:20:37.860 Charles Rosin: And you should you should have it be some way to get the vm said we should all do it in Barbados. 240 00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:39.600 Daffodil Tyminski: i'll work on that. 241 00:20:39.960 --> 00:20:43.050 Daffodil Tyminski: The our funding is rather limited but you know. 242 00:20:43.770 --> 00:20:46.050 Charles Rosin: You know Galvin it's not in the fire anymore. 243 00:20:47.280 --> 00:20:48.630 Daffodil Tyminski: Exactly exactly we've. 244 00:20:49.080 --> 00:20:49.470 Charles Rosin: done them. 245 00:20:50.010 --> 00:20:50.220 Charles Rosin: All right. 246 00:20:52.170 --> 00:21:00.270 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, so let's move to item for public comment on items, not on the agenda but related to the neighbor and committee only does anyone have public comment. 247

00:23:59.460 Charles Rosin: Well i'm particularly interested in seeing what you have in that city council on Wednesday, that they are not interested in. 276 00:24:00.780 --> 00:24:03.390 Charles

00:24:47.670 Daffodil Tyminski: Your not wanting to talk on the site and are you. 285 00:24:57.390 --> 00:24:59.100 Daffodil Tyminski: And it looks like rust lowered his hand. 286 00:25:01.740 --> 00:25:03.420 Daffodil Tyminski: fanny did you speak on this item. 287 00:25:07.260 --> 00:25:08.340 Fanny Magier: yeah can you hear me. 288 00:25:09.030 --> 00:25:11.040 Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, did

still doing my investigation on how we got shoved into this mandated. 292 00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:39.960 Yolanda Gonzalez: Insurance of. 293 00:25:41.190 --> 00:25:55.980 Yolanda Gonzalez: charge for us that have properties and have loans on our properties also, I believe i'm waiting for a response from a portion of Santa Monica that also got a we. 294 00:25:57.510 --> 00:26:08.280 Yolanda Gonzalez: Also, was pushed into the fema are mandated and I am going to be working with i've requested to work with one of the city council's from Santa Monica. 295 00:26:08.850 --> 00:26:16.890 Yolanda Gonzalez: um Oscar who is, I think, interested in finding out because they didn't know anything about it also. 296 00:26:17.280 --> 00:26:26.460 Yolanda Gonzalez: So that's interesting to at least I got one city council from another city really interested in this in this in this issue because they never. 297 00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:48.210 Yolanda Gonzalez: heard about it but i'm still and also for those people that got shoved into this fema mandated on their properties it really makes a big difference because there's no stop clause on this for next year okay was I finally requested, because I got shoved into it without having. 298 00:26:49.380 --> 00:27:00.420 Yolanda Gonzalez: A policy of how in how much, and what i'm covered for and I had to request it, and I finally got it last week, so we can continue on with this. 299 00:27:00.750 --> 00:27:07.950 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay well just coordinate with tracking with me and we'll we'll talk offline and we can report back to the committee, and you know as needed to support. 300 00:27:08.460 --> 00:27:08.940 Yolanda Gonzalez: There we go. 301 00:27:09.000 --> 00:27:09.600 Daffodil Tyminski: Through that. 302 00:27:10.890 --> 00:27:18.030 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay let's, by the way, just wanted us to one one housekeeping issue, you may have noticed for people tell me that we did not. 303 00:27:18.930 --> 00:27:20.610 Daffodil Tyminski: Have a item for the Minutes. 304 00:27:21.150 --> 00:27:32.250 Daffodil Tyminski: I have to admit I made this agenda from last week's agenda where we weren't dealing with minutes because there hadn't been a meeting and so long and I completely forgot to add it so next month we'll we'll just do the Minutes for both meetings and apologies on that for. 305 00:27:33.330 --> 00:27:36.690 Daffodil Tyminski: Missing that moving on to number six we also. 306 00:27:37.860 --> 00:27:46.290 Daffodil Tyminski: had discussed at the last meeting developing maybe some sets of guidelines for our fees if the city is going to take the position that our viewers can basically camp wherever they want. 307 00:27:47.280 --> 00:27:58.020 Daffodil Tyminski: The Board also pass that item, and so, as with the previous item, this Is there anyone that wants to step up and act as a liaison so that we can start moving that forward. 308 00:27:59.550 --> 00:28:03.570 Daffodil Tyminski: And if you do raise your hand and if you don't I will search outside the committee. 309 00:28:05.640 --> 00:28:07.830 Yolanda Gonzalez: um I can serve as late as on. 310 00:28:09.330 --> 00:28:22.350 Yolanda Gonzalez: The daffodil because we have several issues and we are, we had a fire here just the other day in front of my property and I could definitely service layers on on this issue. 311 00:28:23.040 --> 00:28:23.550 Okay. 312 00:28:24.870 --> 00:28:29.520 Daffodil Tyminski: And this is really in the spirit more of let's all get along and live together and a compatible and. 313 00:28:31.080 --> 00:28:36.840 Yolanda Gonzalez: Not only that, but to prevent a fire standing is stemming to our properties. 314 00:28:38.250 --> 00:28:39.150 Yolanda Gonzalez: You know, like my. 315 00:28:40.710 --> 00:28:55.800 Yolanda Gonzalez: My my fence was set on fire, and because we also had a lot of arby's but they have removed them right here between Abbot kinney and ocean so um you know that's We just have to follow through them what the city is doing for us. 316 00:28:56.460 --> 00:29:03.990 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, and by the way I did skip this but is there any public comment on this issue this is number six old business on rv guidelines. 317 00:29:08.790 --> 00:29:09.690 Daffodil Tyminski: hold on one SEC chat. 318 00:29:09.780 --> 00:29:14.040 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm seeing no hands up in public comment i'm gonna close public comment gotcha. 319 00:29:14.670 --> 00:29:15.420 Charles Rosin: Well, I just. 320 00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:22.560 Charles Rosin: You know I know that coven had something to do with with these guidelines being changed. 321 00:29:23.040 --> 00:29:33.960 Charles Rosin: But the idea of a few years ago there was a lot of talk about the safe parking and really getting them off the streets as a sinking. 322 00:29:34.590 --> 00:29:40.530 Charles Rosin: spaces away and and I just don't know what the statuses of all of what these guidelines are. 323 00:29:41.490 --> 00:30:02.370 Charles Rosin: I just was reading, one of the email chains that i'm in about how much trouble they had in their clean up on air the air one market and just you know end of the rv still data, and this is cleaner, but you know I don't understand the legitimacy of it and, as I think I said in one of our. 324 00:30:03.600 --> 00:30:06.540 Charles Rosin: sidebar conversations Dafur email. 325 00:30:06.540 --> 00:30:06.960 Charles Rosin: You know. 326 00:30:06.990 --> 00:30:18.690 Charles Rosin: We had our first rv in the so in the residential neighborhood of the silver triangle, I lasted about two weeks now neighbors bad vibe that person out of your but. 327 00:30:19.470 --> 00:30:26.700 Charles Rosin: Nonetheless, you know I I all of them didn't know where to go to what to turn it was a lot of misinformation. 328 00:30:27.300 --> 00:30:39.480 Charles Rosin: One of the reasons I said, you know i'm really happy that we're doing this now and, and I think that you know, I think that the more that this neighborhood Council takes aggressive positions other places in the city. 329 00:30:40.290 --> 00:30:46.500 Charles Rosin: Can we other Councils, we can liaison and get the citywide stuff that that we might need. 330 00:30:46.980 --> 00:30:59.100 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah no that's great thanks um that's why I think we just need a point person to figure out where are we at there's been so many different motions policies it's sort of this ever shifting tides kind of situation. 331 00:30:59.610 --> 00:31:10.800 Daffodil Tyminski: That, I think we just need one person to kind of be the point person and then right eventually we could bring it to Iraq or bring it to other agencies to try to figure out, you know how to handle the situation. 332 00:31:12.300 --> 00:31:17.190 Daffodil Tyminski: So okay great let's move on to Item seven, where I feel we have a lot of. 333 00:31:18.900 --> 00:31:25.950 Daffodil Tyminski: Public on the phone here item seven is pick a ball I creation activities at penn tennis courts. 334 00:31:27.090 --> 00:31:38.850 Daffodil Tyminski: I don't think pickle association is presenting today the materials about pickle ball are on the neighborhood committee webpage there's a PDF as well as links to a bunch of other resources. 335 00:31:40.770 --> 00:31:48.240 Daffodil Tyminski: This i'll say this came up to me about five different ways, I had a number of just want a couple friends. 336 00:31:49.380 --> 00:31:57.450 Daffodil Tyminski: A couple of neighbors and then the pickup ball association reach out to me, all of whom are mad for pickle ball and like mad in a good way for people ball. 337 00:31:59.130 --> 00:32:08.280 Daffodil Tyminski: and are looking for a place to play in Venice and they currently do have some space at the paddle tennis courts, they had specifically asked about penn mar. 338 00:32:10.080 --> 00:32:23.430 Daffodil Tyminski: And I just wanted to have the issue a little more broadly, although as i've told some of the paddle tennis people I don't want to really get into dealing that much with ocean front walk until we can do with the ocean front wall committee. 339 00:32:24.840 --> 00:32:33.210 Daffodil Tyminski: So this came up with pen more, but I think it is kind of a broader issue you know, can we have courts where could they go, how do we do it that sort of thing. 340 00:32:35.430 --> 00:32:37.230 Daffodil Tyminski: And so I put this on the agenda. 341 00:32:40.320 --> 00:32:57.360 Daffodil Tyminski: Apparently pen moorpark is supposed to be renovated at some point, and their special funding when you renovate a park to expand access to park facilities and in a lot of ways pickle ball like paddle tennis does that because. 342 00:32:59.100 --> 00:33:08.340 Daffodil Tyminski: More people can play in the same amount of space and actually with pickle ball, in particular, tends to attract a lot of seniors, and so it also attracts a different cohort to the park. 343 00:33:09.570 --> 00:33:17.040 Daffodil Tyminski: So let me just read out the motion that's on the table, I will actually you everyone can read it here. 344 00:33:18.060 --> 00:33:28.410 Daffodil Tyminski: um and i'm not going to go through all of the whereas clauses, but they start here and and and go down to here so everyone can see it and just for this is it 849. 345 00:33:31.110 --> 00:33:31.710 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm. 346 00:33:33.240 --> 00:33:42.570 Daffodil Tyminski: The motion, though, is the Venice neighborhood Council supports the Los Angeles department parks and recreation find locations in Venice to place pickle ball courts in Panama Park, as well as in other locations. 347 00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:45.180 Daffodil Tyminski: Do I have a second on the motion. 348 00:33:45.600 --> 00:33:49.320 Daffodil Tyminski: is actually someone else should be making the motion as the Chair i'm not supposed to make motion so. 349 00:33:49.320 --> 00:33:50.790 Daffodil Tyminski: Does someone want to make this motion. 350 00:33:52.740 --> 00:33:56.550 Charles Rosin: All my emotion, just to fix the typo on therefore. 351 00:33:58.080 --> 00:34:03.750 Daffodil Tyminski: You know, this is my geeky lawyer in me but actually in legal parents with emotion that's the correct spelling. 352 00:34:06.510 --> 00:34:07.980 Charles Rosin: alive so out of touch. 353 00:34:08.010 --> 00:34:11.280 Daffodil Tyminski: So many ways, well, it actually means something different, but we can take. 354 00:34:11.280 --> 00:34:11.730 Daffodil Tyminski: That offline. 355 00:34:12.180 --> 00:34:15.030 Charles Rosin: No it's fine I just thought it was a typo. 356 00:34:15.150 --> 00:34:16.770 Daffodil Tyminski: Hello um. 357 00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:20.160 Daffodil

the last. 370 00:35:29.130 --> 00:35:37.050 Sonia: Almost four years, Dan Nichols who used to run the program, and this is a really, really great opportunity for seniors because. 371 00:35:37.350 --> 00:35:45.600 Sonia: seniors this game is like so it's a great sport for young people, but seniors need to get out and enjoy the sport because. 372 00:35:46.020 --> 00:35:52.560 Sonia: it's just wonderful and we're here every Tuesdays and Thursdays from 830 to 12 and for the. 373 00:35:52.920 --> 00:36:02.730 Sonia: We really we bring our own nets, so all we're asking is for just the line but non Bali zone so it's very simple we're not we're not bothering the paddle tennis. 374 00:36:03.210 --> 00:36:21.300 Sonia: Court we bring our next So are we asking is just the line a simple line about you know for the non valleys on the kitchen and That said, it looks like it, you know what that'll be great because I believe we could play want to support a one court. 375 00:36:22.740 --> 00:36:24.450 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, thank you, Sonia. 376 00:36:25.530 --> 00:36:28.080 Daffodil Tyminski: Family why don't you go ahead and you're on now. 377 00:36:31.020 --> 00:36:31.410 Fanny

peak of all it's really a healthy. 379 00:36:50.460 --> 00:36:56.220 Fanny Magier: Again, and it's about what Sonia say it's about adding. 380 00:36:57.300 --> 00:37:19.080 Fanny Magier: A pen mark for the kitchen line that will be very helpful because it's not practical each time we have to add with a Scotch tape and that can be removed when we play so it just only adding a line on on the Court for the kitchen line. 381 00:37:19.230 --> 00:37:21.300 Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you okay thanks a lot for me. 382 00:37:23.010 --> 00:37:42.450 Daffodil Tyminski: So our folks on the phone I haven't

so course should be developed for them, we don't need to necessarily take away the paddle tennis courts. 389 00:38:30.090 --> 00:38:34.620 6- Paul: Understand that they're going after course in pen and then the rip and then also what. 390 00:38:41.130 --> 00:38:51.870 6- Paul: we're not arguing now i'm speaking, you spoke with regard to the course in Venice understand that they played there on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the morning they're bringing their own that. 391 00:38:52.290 --> 00:38:58.740 6- Paul: I also understand that they're they're interested in transforming possibly in the future as an indicates here in this document. 392 00:38:59.250 --> 00:39:08.880 6- Paul: The paddle tennis courts independent ball court I think paddle tennis is an institution it's been around for quite a long time, those of us who play it enjoy it very much. 393 00:39:09.150 --> 00:39:15.030 6- Paul: We are we are dedicated to the sport we don't want to see the courts go away and be transformed to kick a ball ports. 394 00:39:15.270 --> 00:39:23.220 6- Paul: I think that that's something that they're inevitably pushing for, and if they need past tense about courts, they should be developed for them. 395 00:39:23.520 --> 00:39:36.690 6- Paul: not take away something like paddle tennis courts, this is a group of very dedicated people who've been there for many, many years, who enjoy the sport very much and and it's caught on throughout the. 396 00:39:37.110 --> 00:39:46.710 6- Paul: country we just had a tournament bakkies we have tournaments in in Los Angeles it's an institution it's important and I don't I don't believe. 397 00:39:46.950 --> 00:39:55.530 6- Paul: That we should be aiming to replace these courts with pickle ball court, I know that's that's what is on the eventual agenda. 398 00:39:55.830 --> 00:40:05.430 6- Paul: And please, this is not something that those of us who play there are numerous numerous people who come down and play paddle tennis every day don't want to lose those courts. 399 00:40:06.870 --> 00:40:07.860 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, thank you. 400 00:40:09.090 --> 00:40:09.300 Daffodil Tyminski: Now. 401 00:40:10.230 --> 00:40:15.720 6- Paul: Can I just ask you one question, it seems like, can I ask you one question, I will be finished in a moment. 402 00:40:15.960 --> 00:40:20.730 Daffodil Tyminski: I will say no, I mean you can ask the question and we can win the board discusses we may address it. 403 00:40:20.820 --> 00:40:27.240 6- Paul: No, but I mean you do seem to be already indicating that you want to change the courts, the way I read this document here. 404 00:40:29.070 --> 00:40:30.210 Daffodil Tyminski: All right, thank you, Paul. 405 00:40:30.420 --> 00:40:31.230 6- Paul: Is that correct. 406 00:40:31.530 --> 00:40:34.110 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm Stephen go ahead. 407 00:40:35.190 --> 00:40:37.380 Daffodil Tyminski: Sorry, Paul we just can't respond to public comment. 408 00:40:41.100 --> 00:40:41.910 Daffodil Tyminski: Go ahead Stephen. 409 00:40:44.460 --> 00:40:45.750 Steven Gumplo: Okay, can you hear me now. 410 00:40:45.990 --> 00:40:46.650 Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, I can. 411 00:40:47.160 --> 00:40:48.750 Steven Gumplo: Very good, so. 412 00:40:50.430 --> 00:40:59.550 Steven Gumplo: I am a former President of the United States paddle tennis association, maybe this was paul's question, because this is my question. 413 00:41:00.180 --> 00:41:09.840 Steven Gumplo: didn't you just say this motion was dealing with penn more and we're talking about vence that's not my point I want to make, but that is a question I have with my time. 414 00:41:10.740 --> 00:41:12.060 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, thank you. 415 00:41:13.260 --> 00:41:14.160 Daffodil Tyminski: Is there anything else. 416 00:41:14.550 --> 00:41:25.140 Steven Gumplo: No, yes, my my point I want to make is, I agree completely with Paul, I think that if you're going to do anything at penn war or Venice. 417 00:41:26.700 --> 00:41:35.160 Steven Gumplo: Well, you basically said that we're going to table this until we deal with the boardwalk committee so. 418 00:41:36.480 --> 00:41:38.340 Steven Gumplo: i'll just address Panama right now. 419 00:41:40.860 --> 00:41:56.280 Steven Gumplo: pickle ball has a loud noise disturbance issue which has caused it across the country in different places for complaints to the lodge and, of course, to be moved up. 420 00:41:56.850 --> 00:42:07.050 Steven Gumplo: resurface to repurpose to be once they're already built because of the noise problems now, this also is an environmental issue in parks. 421 00:42:07.590 --> 00:42:20.610 Steven Gumplo: it's been shown that noise pollution, like this which rises to 55 decibels there's been studies on it causes problems with wildlife okay so Mr park i'd like to make that point. 422 00:42:21.300 --> 00:42:35.910 Steven Gumplo: And with Venice, I would hope with all these locations, we can study it before we make any moves to add pickle ball now at badness pickle ball is there's two courts. 423 00:42:36.330 --> 00:42:49.680 Steven Gumplo: couple days a week, Sonia it does a great job with that she doesn't want to disturb things, and you know the the noise is minimal right now, but the more chords you add the more. 424 00:42:50.130 --> 00:43:00.540 Steven Gumplo: Things you do to increase more pickle ball players coming in the one you're going to have this noise problem, as well as causing all kinds of problems with the power tennis players. 425 00:43:00.900 --> 00:43:08.970 Steven Gumplo: Who don't want a huge number of people to start coming and seeing Venice as a destination for pickle ball. 426 00:43:10.170 --> 00:43:11.070 Steven Gumplo: ball has. 427 00:43:12.390 --> 00:43:24.240 Steven Gumplo: 10s of thousands of players across the country and many more players in this city than they have courts for and we're happy to have them. 428 00:43:25.140 --> 00:43:39.870 Steven Gumplo: build their own facilities but Pal Pal tennis courts have been around for 45 plus years that Venice and the United States paddle tennis association and other associations such as the pot paddle tennis associate. 429 00:43:40.590 --> 00:43:52.770 Steven Gumplo: group has been working very well with Venice and helping to fund them with a CT improvements buying nets. 430 00:43:54.360 --> 00:44:03.090 Steven Gumplo: And running tournaments every year in conjunction with the city volunteering on this committee john caray used to be a member of this committee. 431 00:44:03.450 --> 00:44:23.850 Steven Gumplo: A few years back, when he was in wall, so we have a very strong presence as Paul indicated, and you know we're just basically waking up to the fact that all these moves are taking place to take over power tennis courts or make them have Sonia wants to make them have pickle ball. 432 00:44:24.450 --> 00:44:26.580 Daffodil Tyminski: On a couple of try to wrap it up a little. 433 00:44:26.580 --> 00:44:30.810 Daffodil Tyminski: bit i'm not trying to time people, but just be respectful of everyone's time. 434 00:44:31.230 --> 00:44:39.300 Steven Gumplo: i'll wrap it up in 30 seconds so she wants right one permanently on the Pal tennis courts, instead of using tape. 435 00:44:40.710 --> 00:44:53.610 Steven Gumplo: I would say that that will increase people all

00:46:42.570 --> 00:46:51.180 Christine Lee: hi there, my name is Christine um and I am a Venice resident stakeholder and i'm also a Community organizer for paddle tennis and Venice. 460 00:46:51.630 --> 00:47:02.250 Christine Lee: And I just want to stand in solidarity with our tennis players at penn mar and saying no typical ball really just based on history and integrity. 461 00:47:03.060 --> 00:47:08.490 Christine Lee: I just want to say that bull paddle tennis is very akin to tennis and we have a huge respect for. 462 00:47:08.820 --> 00:47:18.360 Christine Lee: tennis because it's a sport a competitive sport and also you, you just will never find paddle tennis players playing Pal tennis on tennis courts. 463 00:47:18.840 --> 00:47:33.090 Christine Lee: Because it will we feel it's a different sport and so because paddle tennis is a different sport in the 60s and 70s and 80s, they were you know titans of the sport went out and built courts, they built courts for paddle tennis, and that is why it is iconic. 464 00:47:33.270 --> 00:47:34.950 Yolanda Gonzalez: yeah one process. 465 00:47:35.940 --> 00:47:43.530 Christine Lee: That is why its historical and in Venice and we'd like to keep it that way, and I would really, really like to encourage pickle ball to do the same thing. 466 00:47:44.010 --> 00:47:52.050 Christine Lee: And and build your community and build your sport build courts that don't need cages that like paddle tennis and tennis does. 467 00:47:52.440 --> 00:47:57.870 Christine Lee: build it in a place that builds community and not divides the Community, and please, please you know. 468 00:47:58.230 --> 00:48:15.060 Christine Lee: Use your goodwill integrity to build your sport and you know, not by leeching off of the courts of others and Gordon established that's all I would like to say, and I would really like to encourage you guys build it people will come just as paddle tennis and tennis has as well, like. 469 00:48:15.420 --> 00:48:16.260 Daffodil Tyminski: bass fishing. 470 00:48:17.550 --> 00:48:24.630 Daffodil Tyminski: last person for public comment is Fred actually unless we go back to Ryan God, which I tried doing it go ahead Fred. 471 00:48:25.230 --> 00:48:26.730 Fred Zhang: hi there can you hear me daffodil. 472 00:48:27.330 --> 00:48:28.020 Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, I can. 473 00:48:28.500 --> 00:48:36.030 Fred Zhang: hi just want to say thank you for putting this meeting together, and I am a new resident to Venice and I have. 474 00:48:36.840 --> 00:48:45.870 Fred Zhang: joined and really love the paddle tennis Community since I have moved here I second everything that has been set up a sport, the history of the sport. 475 00:48:46.230 --> 00:48:54.390 Fred Zhang: And I would really you know just like to offer that you know, with all of the paddle tennis courts here paddle tennis is unique, because. 476 00:48:54.840 --> 00:49:07.140 Fred Zhang: We need to have a fence cage around you know around the court in order to play, whether they be at Venice or colver or Glen Allah you know that the fence is integral to the game. 477 00:49:07.410 --> 00:49:16.830 Fred Zhang: You know and and converting a couple of the courts, you know, to pick a ball would would lead to a zero sum game, you know we're losing those courts that we can't easily put up anywhere else. 478 00:49:17.310 --> 00:49:23.730 Fred Zhang: And I think that pickup ball, you know whether you look at videos of their competition they don't have that requirement. 479 00:49:24.120 --> 00:49:36.960 Fred Zhang: So you know, to take away a court or two you know may seem like a small thing or painting lines, but it takes away from the communities, the paddle tennis community's ability to you know functionally played the game. 480 00:49:38.430 --> 00:49:42.720 Fred Zhang: And that's that's all I was also say that you know. 481 00:49:43.650 --> 00:49:52.620 Fred Zhang: I understand that pickup ball is incredibly popular but paddle tennis is incredibly popular with the senior Community also, I think, if you just take a look at the courts or walk by any day. 482 00:49:52.980 --> 00:50:01.560 Fred Zhang: You know, there are a huge contingent contingency of our Community is our senior citizens, so you know that's all i'll say. 483 00:50:01.710 --> 00:50:03.660 Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you okay thanks a lot. 484 00:50:03.930 --> 00:50:05.370 Michael Koss: hi can I be heard. 485 00:50:06.420 --> 00:50:06.840 Daffodil Tyminski: um. 486 00:50:07.980 --> 00:50:08.730 Daffodil Tyminski: Michael shore. 487 00:50:09.000 --> 00:50:13.680 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I see your hand is right, I oddly Oh, you were promoted as a panelist i'm sorry. 488 00:50:13.710 --> 00:50:14.250 Daffodil Tyminski: Go ahead. 489 00:50:15.690 --> 00:50:16.080 Michael Koss: So. 490 00:50:17.400 --> 00:50:29.730 Michael Koss: i'm a handball Ambassador I helped lead the charge in opening Venice beach last year, working with Dennis hopper artsy and other outlets, I am also a pickup ball Ambassador I help. 491 00:50:30.990 --> 00:50:44.820 Michael Koss: Another ambassador in Santa Monica run a program where we have about 2000 players 200 on a daily basis we play at memorial Park, which is for tennis courts that have pickle ball lines. 492 00:50:45.750 --> 00:50:52.950 Michael Koss: I would certainly be happy to be part of any committee that you might create to investigate how things would work. 493 00:50:54.000 --> 00:51:03.390 Michael Koss: I would also like to say that I also play paddle tennis in tennis and I want the paddle tennis people on here to know that. 494 00:51:04.770 --> 00:51:15.330 Michael Koss: As far as I know, we have no hope of converting paddle tennis courts, we love the paddle tennis courts in Venice beach we don't want to change anything like that. 495 00:51:16.590 --> 00:51:28.440 Michael Koss: So, all we want to do is just get some places to play if you want to put some pickup ball courts, you know, in an empty parking lot that's great We just need some places to play because. 496 00:51:28.830 --> 00:51:37.080 Michael Koss: Every week at memorial park we introduced the game to at least 51st time players every week, so the sport is growing. 497 00:51:37.500 --> 00:51:45.060 Michael Koss: at a rate that just can't be contained so we just need some places to play, I appreciate that you guys are on board with us. 498 00:51:45.900 --> 00:51:55.320 Michael Koss: And you certainly you know know that all these sports can coexist i'll send you an email, so that you have my contact info So if I can help you in any way i'd be happy to. 499 00:51:57.030 --> 00:52:07.260 Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks so much Michael sorry i'm trying to get off here um okay so we'll close public comment I think we're Judy dropped off, so if anyone knows them or they want to email. 500 00:52:07.980 --> 00:52:22.710 Daffodil Tyminski: The neighborhood committee at Venice nc calm have them do so for their comments, obviously this is not going to be the last time we deal with this issue, let me open up comment now to. 501 00:52:23.070 --> 00:52:25.200 roy & judy: The committee here we're here. 502 00:52:25.410 --> 00:52:27.150 Daffodil Tyminski: Oh wait, are you there okay great. 503 00:52:27.180 --> 00:52:29.820 Daffodil Tyminski: Why don't you go ahead and then we'll we'll go to committee comment. 504 00:52:30.450 --> 00:52:34.680 roy & judy: Okay, great i'll be very brief longtime paddle tennis player. 505 00:52:35.640 --> 00:52:49.620 roy & judy: Personally I don't have any problem with Sonia suggestion of painting the lines on the paddle tennis and the to paddle tennis courts that they use that really doesn't disturb the people who are playing paddle tennis having two lines there. 506 00:52:50.100 --> 00:52:56.700 roy & judy: But going forward, I think that the one thing that you really need to understand is that paddle tennis players. 507 00:52:57.630 --> 00:53:14.130 roy & judy: pickup ball players can play on a paddle tennis court, they simply need a slightly higher net which they bring in they raise paddle tennis players cannot play on a pickle ball court because there's no way to lower a net once a higher net is our is installed. 508 00:53:14.400 --> 00:53:29.940 roy & judy: that's right Oh, you can always temporarily use a paddle tennis court for pickup ball, you can never use a pickle ball court for paddle tennis so anything that has ever considered I would hope would be simply a matter of. 509 00:53:30.840 --> 00:53:35.550 roy & judy: temporarily raising or the Net for their purposes, but not never permanently. 510 00:53:37.830 --> 00:53:43.470 roy & judy: Changing the photo with the ball, because then that completely lets out any paddle tennis players that want to use it. 511 00:53:44.850 --> 00:53:45.120 Daffodil Tyminski: that's. 512 00:53:45.210 --> 00:53:50.640 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay that's a great point thanks um Okay, so let me close. 513 00:53:54.180 --> 00:53:58.110 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm committee anyone have any comments on the committee. 514 00:53:58.680 --> 00:53:59.190 Yolanda Gonzalez: I do. 515 00:54:01.620 --> 00:54:22.620 Yolanda Gonzalez: Yes, um I was originally on a committee several years ago, where we establish certain paddle tennis tennis courts in areas that they did not exist, like in East Los Angeles i'm talking about like boyle heights as boyle heights it has a lot of parks and I would not touch. 516 00:54:24.480 --> 00:54:38.520 Yolanda Gonzalez: paddle tennis or into tennis courts, because they require certain regulations so people do not get hurt on these, I am a tennis player past tennis player and a paddle tennis player. 517 00:54:39.300 --> 00:54:50.040 Yolanda Gonzalez: And I went through the regulations in which the city establish in order to get these courts, going so pick a ball, I never realized that has really picked up. 518 00:54:50.550 --> 00:55:04.080 Yolanda Gonzalez: But i'm going to go back into my notes, but I need to approach a different way into getting pickle ball that especially senior citizens, because if they get hurt on those courts, the city Israel, the. 519 00:55:04.860 --> 00:55:16.500 Yolanda Gonzalez: parks and recreation is responsible it's a whole process, so we can get the pickup ball courts going, because we have parks, that we need renovation, they need new activity and to them. 520 00:55:16.890 --> 00:55:19.830 Daffodil Tyminski: So if you wanna i'm listening I just need to step off for one second. 521 00:55:19.890 --> 00:55:22.770 Daffodil Tyminski: Some sure someone is obviously on fire here hold on. 522 00:55:23.490 --> 00:55:23.730 Oh. 523 00:55:26.670 --> 00:55:28.950 Charles Rosin: She was talking metaphorically. 524 00:55:39.060 --> 00:55:39.930 Okay hold on. 525 00:56:01.050 --> 00:56:06.000 Daffodil Tyminski: hi everyone I apologize, when someone calls three times in quick succession, I assume there's something horrible going on. 526 00:56:07.980 --> 00:56:07.980 Daffodil Tyminski: um. 527 00:56:09.990 --> 00:56:12.180 Daffodil Tyminski: Does anyone else in the committee have any public comment. 528 00:56:12.510 --> 00:56:13.050 Charles Rosin: I knew. 529 00:56:14.190 --> 00:56:21.450 Charles Rosin: I have a couple, because I, you know listened and took notes and just want to say first of all to our public people I really appreciate. 530 00:56:22.470 --> 00:56:31.350 Charles Rosin: The clarity that I got from both micro cars and from Judy Judy right room because they explain things and I will have questions about. 531 00:56:32.700 --> 00:56:41.640 Charles Rosin: You know the difference between yes i'm clearly you can't size of the net makes it a real big issue about making a designated. 532 00:56:42.930 --> 00:56:49.410 Charles Rosin: pickup ball court, when the time arrives, but this is just looking at it and I think that Yolanda. 533 00:56:50.790 --> 00:57:06.060 Charles Rosin: You know her comment they're coming into and saying look you didn't realize how popular pickup ball has become, and I think that is also you know could be threatening for other sports, you know, those of us who play tennis in the 70s and 80s. 534 00:57:07.200 --> 00:57:17.070 Charles Rosin: know that you know the sport went through some hard times and so i'm really and I know that so many people both young people and old people as. 535 00:57:18.150 --> 00:57:19.680 Charles Rosin: seniors are playing. 536 00:57:21.210 --> 00:57:31.170 Charles Rosin: The game now pick a ball, for all sorts of reasons, and you know eventually There probably will be a private market for it, just like that was with. 537 00:57:32.940 --> 00:57:34.770 Charles Rosin: Back in the day with racquetball. 538 00:57:36.510 --> 00:57:49.050 Charles Rosin: But, but one of the big advantages i've always been told about pickup was that you get that they would have the space, you could get more players to play there'd be more access. 539 00:57:50.160 --> 00:57:59.100 Charles Rosin: You know paddleball clearly in my experience, playing paddleball which was only about a year year and a half years ago, it was like sport, but. 540 00:58:00.420 --> 00:58:14.190 Charles Rosin: It was very hard to get a court as it exists, maybe, if you reserve times one with a friend, no it's a it's a real hit or miss, so I think it's really wise daffodil to where you're making you're separating the two and good. 541 00:58:15.210 --> 00:58:15.540 Charles Rosin: luck. 542 00:58:16.080 --> 00:58:16.740 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, I didn't. 543 00:58:16.950 --> 00:58:20.760 Charles Rosin: really assess this much, much better I would. 544 00:58:21.780 --> 00:58:32.400 Charles Rosin: think that listen futures coming you know, for those who said there's going to be an eventual line takeaway I was really glad to learn that the line is not such a big deal because I thought the battle. 545 00:58:33.180 --> 00:58:42.780 Charles Rosin: zone that that conversant with paddle tennis but, as I say later for a while there were a lot of lines on that core seems like what other ones not going to make that big of a difference. 546 00:58:43.230 --> 00:58:53.520 Charles Rosin: But i'm more bullish about scenes tennis courts being converted or new courts, but you know only if it's cost effective this city, you know. 547 00:58:54.240 --> 00:59:05.580 Charles Rosin: has a lot of other things to spend money on and to go towards even in a recreational capacity so i'm i'm all for what we're doing here with the study of it. 548 00:59:06.690 --> 00:59:07.980 Charles Rosin: And I know. 549 00:59:08.520 --> 00:59:13.860 Daffodil Tyminski: Just let me interject here a little bit too, since i'm the one that put this on here, I can maybe give everyone some context i'm. 550 00:59:14.070 --> 00:59:18.030 Yolanda Gonzalez: daffodil yes, may I make a suggestion. 551 00:59:19.140 --> 00:59:35.430 Yolanda Gonzalez: In order to start all this before we really start dividing the paddle tennis on the tennis in the pickup ball Community what we what I what somebody needs to do and I don't know if somebody wants to carry this on is, we need to go to the city and explain to them. 552 00:59:36.570 --> 00:59:37.560 Yolanda Gonzalez: What is happening. 553 00:59:37.620 --> 00:59:38.100 Daffodil Tyminski: Because there's. 554 00:59:38.610 --> 01:00:02.070 Yolanda Gonzalez: always been the the forward of many things in sport paddle tennis and and and and tennis are already a man is is an important sport to the to the whole world, because we are in the Olympics, we have a special events and but some if you want to I can go to the city myself and tell them. 555 01:00:02.250 --> 01:00:06.660 Daffodil Tyminski: This is your want to just hold on one second just let me speak for one second because I think I. 556 01:00:06.660 --> 01:00:06.840 Can. 557 01:00:07.950 --> 01:00:23.100 Daffodil Tyminski: answer some of your concerns so as the personal put this on the agenda people reached out to me about wanting pickle ball I don't think there is any intention to displace paddle tennis I do think all they wanted with paddle tennis was aligned. 558 01:00:24.600 --> 01:00:28.830 Daffodil Tyminski: And if we can build more courts that's obviously the first. 559 01:00:30.150 --> 01:00:48.660 Daffodil Tyminski: that's the first goal just the reality is is our part, you know each seat Council district gets the same park budget our park budget is overwhelmingly absorbed by the boardwalk and it's by serving activity, so we are always short staffed short served on. 560 01:00:49.710 --> 01:00:55.920 Daffodil Tyminski: On what actually comes to the Venice community, so the reality is there just may not be a lot of money to build new pickup ball courts. 561 01:00:56.820 --> 01:01:05.940 Daffodil Tyminski: And when I actually went over to pen mark, because the request was initially for penn mar with the idea that pin bar is about to undergo some renovation. 562 01:01:06.480 --> 01:01:15.390 Daffodil Tyminski: All of the great wall people wanted was that on one of the courts to paint some pickup lines, so that one court could be used periodically, just as the way they've got these two courts and paddle tennis. 563 01:01:17.700 --> 01:01:18.180 Daffodil Tyminski: and 564 01:01:19.470 --> 01:01:31.650 Daffodil Tyminski: walking depend more and walking around and, by the way, i'm an avid tennis person myself I don't really play basketball, I never can get on the court because they're all basically people giving private lessons but. 565 01:01:32.880 --> 01:01:41.070 Daffodil Tyminski: I don't know where else and pen mar you could put a pickle ball court it just doesn't seem like their space anywhere there's either a tree, or you know, a parking lot. 566 01:01:41.550 --> 01:01:45.570 Daffodil Tyminski: So I don't know that pen Mars, ultimately, the right place to go but. 567 01:01:46.290 --> 01:01:54.900 Daffodil Tyminski: The move here is to talk to parks and recs and sort of get them involved in the whole conversation I believe the pickled while people are already doing this, but. 568 01:01:55.350 --> 01:02:02.820 Daffodil Tyminski: i'd like to do it within the rubric of the dnc exactly so that folks like the paddle tennis folks can weigh in or tennis people or whatever. 569 01:02:04.860 --> 01:02:12.330 Daffodil Tyminski: You know, there could be courts, for example by the Venice library right there space there that seems like no one's really using or. 570 01:02:12.930 --> 01:02:17.760 Daffodil Tyminski: You know I don't even know we'd have to look around and figure out where's their space that the city has to be used. 571 01:02:18.570 --> 01:02:33.660 Daffodil Tyminski: When it comes to ocean front walk Ideally, we would just build additional facilities that's there's a lot of space down there, but I would kind of like to have that conversation more with the ocean front wall committee and let them work with the paddle tennis folks to explore that so. 572 01:02:35.460 --> 01:02:46.140 Daffodil Tyminski: Anyway, the whole point of this motion was that we support finding locations to place pickle vocal cords if it's striping pen mar pen mar tennis court or. 573 01:02:46.770 --> 01:02:57.540 Daffodil Tyminski: You know, putting a line on the two parallel tennis courts, you know, whatever works for everybody, so anyway that's my two cents William why don't you go ahead, you should. 574 01:02:58.650 --> 01:03:06.000 william wood: Thank you and um no I guess ECHO chuck's comments about you know thanking people for. 575 01:03:07.260 --> 01:03:11.670 william wood: Being up and participating early on a Friday morning and your. 576 01:03:12.780 --> 01:03:14.940 william wood: comments and feelings about all the different. 577 01:03:15.990 --> 01:03:17.430 william wood: racket and ball sports. 578 01:03:18.570 --> 01:03:24.480 william wood: I know know about tennis i've seen palatable i've seen pickle ball on TV. 579 01:03:26.730 --> 01:03:27.180 william wood: But. 580 01:03:28.530 --> 01:03:34.470 william wood: I also agree with some of the comments and I think chuck was kind of getting at this to. 581 01:03:35.640 --> 01:03:50.160 william wood: Maybe it's more appropriate to have emotion that asked the city to study places to locate courts as opposed to having a motion that's where did to find locations. 582 01:03:51.630 --> 01:04:09.120 william wood: panwar wherever I mean I live on palomar and use the park I don't know again the dimensions of a pickle ball court if there are possibilities up there for pipe or the renovations or whatever some of the stuff with funding if there's going to be. 583 01:04:09.870 --> 01:04:10.650 william wood: Money spent. 584 01:04:10.680 --> 01:04:20.820 william wood: For new courts to be built, wherever maybe there's possibilities for private money to support also it's not tax dollars i'm just saying. 585 01:04:21.690 --> 01:04:35.670 william wood: Instead of saying do this, we have emotion that says figure out and look at and think about how to do this, and maybe that can alleviate you know and address some of these tensions between pickle ball people and. 586 01:04:36.300 --> 01:04:43.650 william wood: You know paddle about people and handball people attendance people or whoever, so that. 587 01:04:45.840 --> 01:04:48.480 william wood: I would support an amended motion. 588 01:04:49.410 --> 01:04:52.620 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, thanks for you i'm Darrell go ahead. 589 01:04:53.730 --> 01:04:56.610 Darryl DuFay: Thanks i'm so glad that you're you're hearing me. 590 01:04:57.030 --> 01:05:01.050 Darryl DuFay: Yes, Okay, because I had to I had to come back in. 591 01:05:01.410 --> 01:05:01.980 Daffodil Tyminski: I saw you. 592 01:05:02.100 --> 01:05:15.270 Darryl DuFay: i'm so glad i'm so glad you're having this, because what I have read about a pickle ball, it is just overwhelming the number of a one to 5 million people. 593 01:05:15.990 --> 01:05:29.760 Darryl DuFay: And I appreciated the paddle tennis people saying what they had to say what I did not appreciate is the saying the talking about pen mar because it could be too noisy. 594 01:05:30.420 --> 01:05:40.620 Darryl DuFay: And I understand that there is never enough space to do what you want to do so, I would appreciate that, as we move forward on this. 595 01:05:41.490 --> 01:06:02.370 Darryl DuFay: Because the discussion I had with my neighbor which generated most of your data was not to to to focus on pen mark and not on ocean front walk in terms of the panel tennis, so I think we just moved forward to gather more information. 596 01:06:03.780 --> 01:06:07.170 Darryl DuFay: The Nice to find a parking lot that's not used. 597 01:06:08.910 --> 01:06:09.300 Darryl DuFay: Thank you. 598 01:06:09.630 --> 01:06:10.650 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, thanks Darrell. 599 01:06:11.820 --> 01:06:22.650 Daffodil Tyminski: You know, two things I have a i'm a member of a club that is a tennis club, and we did convert a pickle ball court, one of the courts to for pickle ball court, you can fit for on to one tennis. 600 01:06:23.220 --> 01:06:33.360 Daffodil Tyminski: Court and the noise issue actually is pretty easy to deal with that was a big issue with this club and they do have wrapped that they can wrap the court in that really does a great job with the noise. 601 01:06:35.010 --> 01:06:35.700 Daffodil Tyminski: But um. 602 01:06:36.900 --> 01:06:52.680 Daffodil Tyminski: But yeah I just i'm with respect to penn mar versus other places I just know having talked to parks and recs that, regardless of whether we say pen mark only or here only they are going to consider all of their properties. 603 01:06:52.740 --> 01:06:56.460 Daffodil Tyminski: Right just trying to be realistic and practical about how this is going to unfold. 604 01:06:57.480 --> 01:07:05.790 Daffodil Tyminski: I would suggest we we do have ocean front walk committee weigh in on this and you can have this discussion, if someone wants to make a. 605 01:07:07.320 --> 01:07:11.700 Daffodil Tyminski: friendly amendment on the motion, they can otherwise the motion on the floor is the one that we read. 606 01:07:13.980 --> 01:07:19.110 Charles Rosin: I personally in all due respect to general and William. 607 01:07:20.940 --> 01:07:29.040 Charles Rosin: I you know studies taking it back to any part of the city studies is where studies was where things go to die. 608 01:07:30.270 --> 01:07:45.240 Charles Rosin: whereas this is more of a call to action, even if it's if it gets a main differences what we studied it and we look at this just going into study group means we're not going to do anything unless of course it's our Council middle already knows the answer of anything being studied. 609 01:07:45.900 --> 01:07:47.220 Yolanda Gonzalez: Can I weigh in on that. 610 01:07:48.090 --> 01:07:52.170 Daffodil Tyminski: Sure Yolanda and then, if we don't have an amendment at that point i'm going to call the vote. 611 01:07:52.920 --> 01:08:03.870 Yolanda Gonzalez: On first of all, you guys, we have the Olympics coming up 2028 okay pick a ball, we could be the four runners of really encouraging pickle now. 612 01:08:04.230 --> 01:08:16.110 Yolanda Gonzalez: The only way to city does move forward is when they have private investments way in with the investments that the city is willing to put in that I know by a fact because i've done it before so. 613 01:08:16.980 --> 01:08:22.680 Yolanda Gonzalez: let's find out, maybe we can get first to city was what they're going to establish and the rules of. 614 01:08:23.160 --> 01:08:31.920 Yolanda Gonzalez: Building or putting in pick a bowl for the future and second let's see we can get private investment to come in and build. 615 01:08:32.310 --> 01:08:45.930 Yolanda Gonzalez: help build these pickup ball courts okay that's the way the city will eventually move because it's the interest of the city, especially with the Olympics coming in which I have worked three Olympics does things. 616 01:08:47.880 --> 01:08:59.850 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, great thanks, so can we take a vote on the motion and with the understanding that my plan here is to then ask the ocean front wall committee to take this up as well. 617 01:09:00.780 --> 01:09:03.390 Yolanda Gonzalez: And you read the motion daffodil. 618 01:09:03.510 --> 01:09:18.120 Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, the motion is on the screen, I will highlight it, it is now, therefore, the Venice neighborhood Council supports the Los Angeles department of parks and recreation finding locations in Venice to place pickle ball courts in penn moorpark as well as in other locations. 619 01:09:19.980 --> 01:09:21.420 Yolanda Gonzalez: I second the motion. 620 01:09:22.230 --> 01:09:28.260 Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, I believe chuck chuck made the motion, I think you second it Oh, how can we take a vote. 621 01:09:29.430 --> 01:09:31.260 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm chuck. 622 01:09:33.600 --> 01:09:34.290 Daffodil Tyminski: Yolanda. 623 01:09:34.740 --> 01:09:35.460 Yolanda Gonzalez: So I. 624 01:09:37.680 --> 01:09:38.310 Daffodil Tyminski: searched Sergio. 625 01:09:43.260 --> 01:09:43.830 Daffodil Tyminski: Darrell. 626 01:09:47.100 --> 01:09:47.670 Daffodil Tyminski: St. 627 01:09:50.430 --> 01:09:50.820 Daffodil Tyminski: William. 628 01:09:54.330 --> 01:09:54.900 william wood: Staying. 629 01:09:55.590 --> 01:09:56.310 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm staying okay. 630 01:09:58.290 --> 01:10:00.720 Daffodil Tyminski: And i'll vote I to. 631 01:10:01.740 --> 01:10:13.530 Daffodil Tyminski: OK, so the motion carries for folks on the phone if you have any questions, please reach out to any of us, but my plan, again, is to have ocean front walk take this up and then we'll see if we can take it to the board. 632 01:10:14.550 --> 01:10:15.090 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay. 633 01:10:16.470 --> 01:10:25.770 Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you let's move on to our last item I know we're running a little over time here, and this is also kind of a big calm for session, the next item, this is item eight. 634 01:10:29.010 --> 01:10:40.530 Daffodil Tyminski: New business which actually clickable should have a new business sorry about that I am a is sidewalk maintenance and repair this came up just by way of background I don't know if anyone saw the. 635 01:10:41.790 --> 01:10:53.940 Daffodil Tyminski: Report that RON galperin released he's our city controller he's also rank those proactive and doing things i've highlighted that link it's also on the neighborhood committee website. 636 01:10:55.410 --> 01:11:04.200 Daffodil Tyminski: Obviously, everyone that lives in Venice knows about all of our broken sidewalks you should see my block it literally looks like Berlin post World War Two it's crazy thing. 637 01:11:05.250 --> 01:11:18.600 Daffodil Tyminski: We all have struggled with trying to get sidewalks repaired there apparently are resources out there to to have this happen, it comes with a lot of issues, this is kind of a big complicated topic. 638 01:11:19.710 --> 01:11:22.350 Daffodil Tyminski: As I understand it at a very basic level. 639 01:11:23.970 --> 01:11:31.410 Daffodil Tyminski: The city is starting to engage more with private contractors and with smaller contractors to get the sidewalk program going. 640 01:11:31.890 --> 01:11:43.830 Daffodil Tyminski: But if the city repairs a sidewalk in front of your House and it breaks after that you have a duty to repair it so there's a lot of people that are actually now refusing to get their sidewalks fixed. 641 01:11:44.850 --> 01:11:47.100 Daffodil Tyminski: Because they don't want to be responsible for it. 642 01:11:48.750 --> 01:12:04.470 Daffodil Tyminski: I was 12 years ago in this an issue, so I don't think in five years, the city's made any progress in this, but I think it is something I have a lot of people complain about sidewalks and we should at least address it and figure out, you know what in Venice, we can do so that is the issue. 643 01:12:09.480 --> 01:12:16.950 Daffodil Tyminski: And this, I didn't prepare this motion, but this sort of came to me, and I would say the motion part of this is. 644 01:12:18.120 --> 01:12:24.270 Daffodil Tyminski: The neighborhood Committee seeks to have the city, either directly or in concert with homeowner been programs to repair existing broken sidewalks. 645 01:12:27.180 --> 01:12:29.610 Daffodil Tyminski: that's the issue does somebody want to make the motion. 646 01:12:32.310 --> 01:12:34.620 Yolanda Gonzalez: i'll make the motion oh it's okay go ahead. 647 01:12:38.010 --> 01:12:40.770 Daffodil Tyminski: let's say Yolanda why don't you make the motion and check your second it. 648 01:12:41.040 --> 01:12:41.580 Charles Rosin: Or why not. 649 01:12:42.720 --> 01:12:45.720 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay um do you have any we. 650 01:12:46.140 --> 01:12:47.910 Daffodil Tyminski: want to hold on one SEC, let me go to public comment. 651 01:12:47.910 --> 01:12:51.450 Daffodil Tyminski: First, are there any members of the public that would like to comment on this. 652 01:12:55.140 --> 01:12:56.520 Daffodil Tyminski: it's got a few folks here. 653 01:12:59.340 --> 01:13:01.260 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, I see no public comment. 654 01:13:02.910 --> 01:13:06.090 Daffodil Tyminski: So we'll close public comment and. 655 01:13:07.620 --> 01:13:10.170 Daffodil Tyminski: You want to let me just get cassie cassie why don't you go first. 656 01:13:10.560 --> 01:13:16.590 Cassie B: yeah so I could you introduce the motion, could you kind of just go over that what that means, thank you. 657 01:13:18.960 --> 01:13:19.410 Cassie B: um. 658 01:13:20.310 --> 01:13:21.300 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah so. 659 01:13:22.710 --> 01:13:28.530 Daffodil Tyminski: Basically we're just asking the city to repair system broken sidewalks um. 660 01:13:31.050 --> 01:13:39.510 Daffodil Tyminski: We will, this is gonna, this is an issue that I think is going to take a few times before us to figure this out because, as this was. 661 01:13:40.050 --> 01:13:50.760 Daffodil Tyminski: presented to me as the motion it's unclear to me at this point what the city will do, or we are able to do as the neighborhood committee because it's not clear to me what the parameters are the city setting. 662 01:13:52.980 --> 01:14:04.170 Daffodil Tyminski: We actually are going to have RON galperin come to the dnc meeting, either in December or January I have soft but if he came he would speak to this topic you give us a little bit more guidance. 663 01:14:06.510 --> 01:14:09.660 Daffodil Tyminski: So that's that's what I have daryl go ahead. 664 01:14:10.830 --> 01:14:25.680 Darryl DuFay: Ah, I I am supportive this because, just like the previous notion, if we are not heard we don't exist, and I have read a lot about so sidewalks etc, I see you have reference here. 665 01:14:26.430 --> 01:14:38.010 Darryl DuFay: it's a very, very difficult problem, the problems do not get solved unless it's brought to the attention of the politicians over and over and over again, thank you. 666 01:14:39.090 --> 01:14:39.780 Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Darrell. 667 01:14:42.360 --> 01:14:44.250 Daffodil Tyminski: anyone else have any comment on this. 668 01:14:44.310 --> 01:14:45.240 Yolanda Gonzalez: Yes, I do. 669 01:14:45.480 --> 01:14:47.460 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah sorry Yolanda, of course, sorry yes. 670 01:14:47.760 --> 01:14:58.890 Yolanda Gonzalez: um yes, this needs a lot of study um i've gone through this process in front of my properties and I got stuck with two bills on it so. 671 01:14:59.430 --> 01:15:15.060 Yolanda Gonzalez: If it's so sidewalks like, for example, like over by the post office that happens to be part of a it's not in front of a home they can fix the sidewalks, but if you. 672 01:15:15.840 --> 01:15:19.830 Yolanda Gonzalez: happen to have a sidewalk where a tree is already lifting up your sidewalk. 673 01:15:20.670 --> 01:15:30.360 Yolanda Gonzalez: Sometimes you have to find out it's it's it's not a complicated system to a process to get it done we I can go to the city. 674 01:15:30.840 --> 01:15:41.640 Yolanda Gonzalez: let's take pictures where they do need to get done but let's not make sure that there's also the property owner that has a nasty sidewalk in front of his house get stuck. 675 01:15:42.000 --> 01:15:49.080 Yolanda Gonzalez: With the bill, also because it has happened, it has happened to me, and it has happened to other friends of mine that all of a sudden. 676 01:15:49.770 --> 01:16:02.100 Yolanda Gonzalez: We call in to get that sidewalk done and then all of a sudden, we get hit with a bill that they're very sticky within, and I want had RON help them to explain that that, why is it that sometimes we get stuck with those bill okay. 677 01:16:04.830 --> 01:16:12.810 Daffodil Tyminski: By the way, you raise two very good points I should have mentioned that I forgot when I did reach out to the arbor committee because they are very focused on street trees. 678 01:16:13.320 --> 01:16:25.320 Daffodil Tyminski: And the felling of street trees for sidewalk repair and I think they've worked a lot with the city, so that it used to be, that is, the city was going to repair a sidewalk and it was near a tree that would just take the tree down. 679 01:16:25.950 --> 01:16:35.160 Daffodil Tyminski: And I believe that is no longer the City policy, so the arbor committee is not as concerned about sidewalk repair they've greatly reduced the number of trees lost for sidewalk repair. 680 01:16:36.780 --> 01:16:46.380 Daffodil Tyminski: But actually Yolanda you raise a really good point, and what I might propose is that we continue this motion for a month and in the intervening time. 681 01:16:47.130 --> 01:17:00.660 Daffodil Tyminski: I would, all of us reach out to our neighborhoods and try to identify really problematic locations and maybe we can just focus on some really bad problems to take as like kind of case studies to figure out how this works. 682 01:17:01.050 --> 01:17:09.420 Yolanda Gonzalez: And, if I may yet, if I may add to it daffodil because of the drought and some of these trees. 683 01:17:10.470 --> 01:17:20.130 Yolanda Gonzalez: require really a lot of water, they are drying and, unfortunately, when the winds come, and we were going to be running into a powerful wins apparently this year. 684 01:17:20.670 --> 01:17:27.270 Yolanda Gonzalez: Because of the drought and also because of the lack of rain and if all of a sudden, we get a big rain and when. 685 01:17:27.780 --> 01:17:33.210 Yolanda Gonzalez: They the wind knocks them down and we've had serious accident that when which they fall into a home. 686 01:17:33.510 --> 01:17:45.330 Yolanda Gonzalez: or they fall into a house, so we really need a very good study of which trees are really in trouble of probably falling down in causing serious problems. 687 01:17:45.630 --> 01:17:57.090 Yolanda Gonzalez: it's a big process, but we can get it done it happened in boyle heights that whole street of first street in front of a hollenbeck they had to remove a whole bunch of beautiful trees, because of it okay. 688 01:17:58.020 --> 01:18:16.950 Daffodil Tyminski: um I am I believe that the arbor committee is already on that I will loop back with Isabel to va who's the Chair of that committee, but I, my understanding is there they're very aware of that issue and are working on identifying they're doing a cataloging of trees and then so. 689 01:18:17.250 --> 01:18:24.540 Yolanda Gonzalez: Because there are people who go against the fact of removing a tree, and I can understand the fact you're not going to remove a beautiful tree that's been standing okay. 690 01:18:24.570 --> 01:18:31.560 Yolanda Gonzalez: Right, but if it's going to cause a problem which is ready to fall and cause damage the city doesn't want that liability. 691 01:18:31.950 --> 01:18:32.910 Daffodil Tyminski: Right understood. 692 01:18:33.360 --> 01:18:34.440 Daffodil Tyminski: so good. 693 01:18:35.310 --> 01:18:38.550 Charles Rosin: I just have to say one thing about that that the tree that's the most. 694 01:18:40.080 --> 01:18:46.110 Charles Rosin: Vulnerable I believe most horrible during a kind of wind storms having a palm trees. 695 01:18:46.770 --> 01:18:52.620 Charles Rosin: Oh, I i'm very concerned about where my my daughter and son in law live at range of like that that. 696 01:18:54.900 --> 01:19:03.810 Charles Rosin: palm trees, is going to all over on we're over the amount of palm fronds and you see like that that I think is a more. 697 01:19:04.680 --> 01:19:17.760 Charles Rosin: immediate danger, and the only other one thing I want to say about the cataloging of the of the sidewalks I think it's really important if someone's going to go out and do that i'm going to take a walk in my around the silver triangle, because I know i'm almost. 698 01:19:18.900 --> 01:19:30.840 Charles Rosin: places take a photograph means much more than saying I walked around and there were 10 of them just take a photograph of five of them, and you know that that will have the impact. 699 01:19:31.140 --> 01:19:41.730 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I mean what i'm thinking is let's do that, I mean, I would say, you know, this is obviously informal but we're the neighborhood committee right so we're at the most grassroots level possible, I would, I would suggest that each of us. 700 01:19:42.210 --> 01:19:51.270 Daffodil Tyminski: You know just walk through our neighborhoods I can certainly do it here, or you know, so there is take some photos identify the location, maybe GEO tagging or something. 701 01:19:52.350 --> 01:19:59.670 Daffodil Tyminski: i'll make an announcement at the dnc meeting as well to just encourage the general public to go out and do that and send us what they have and then. 702 01:20:00.090 --> 01:20:12.660 Daffodil Tyminski: Perhaps what we can do is just take maybe five locations and try to run them through the city process and see what what really the rules are you know does liability shift to the homeowner you know will someone gets stuck with the bill. 703 01:20:13.980 --> 01:20:18.300 Daffodil Tyminski: And then we can really figure out how this works, because ultimately what i've talked to. 704 01:20:18.720 --> 01:20:32.850 Daffodil Tyminski: If I got 10 to 20 people that talked about this everyone's got a different story about what happened with their friends about fixing so i'm a you know that's my suggestion, and that we you know I think the official. 705 01:20:34.020 --> 01:20:37.860 Daffodil Tyminski: procedure here is to table this motion until we bring it back. 706 01:20:39.600 --> 01:20:43.770 Daffodil Tyminski: So with that said i'll make a motion to table this until January. 707 01:20:44.160 --> 01:20:50.730 Daffodil Tyminski: I second Yolanda you second okay sorry I missed I missed here to folks that are public comment on cassie go ahead. 708 01:20:52.470 --> 01:20:53.940 Daffodil Tyminski: think you need to unmute yourself. 709 01:21:00.030 --> 01:21:01.770 Daffodil Tyminski: cassie did you want to speak on this. 710 01:21:06.900 --> 01:21:09.540 Cassie B: Sorry, my thing was no. 711 01:21:09.960 --> 01:21:14.280 Daffodil Tyminski: that's Okay, no okay Darrell did you want to speak on this again. 712 01:21:14.850 --> 01:21:15.690 Darryl DuFay: Oh no. 713 01:21:16.110 --> 01:21:19.920 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, all right, so can we just get a vote on. 714 01:21:22.050 --> 01:21:30.450 Daffodil Tyminski: tabling this and everyone, please, I encourage you to go out and talk to your neighbors and try to find some good examples i'm Yolanda. 715 01:21:31.290 --> 01:21:31.740 Yes. 716 01:21:34.470 --> 01:21:34.950 Daffodil Tyminski: chuck. 717 01:21:35.310 --> 01:21:35.760 Yes. 718 01:21:38.310 --> 01:21:38.880 Daffodil Tyminski: Sergio. 719 01:21:39.600 --> 01:21:40.230 Yes. 720 01:21:42.420 --> 01:21:43.890 Daffodil Tyminski: Darrell yes. 721 01:21:45.780 --> 01:21:46.350 Daffodil Tyminski: cassie. 722 01:21:48.450 --> 01:21:48.900 Cassie B: Yes. 723 01:21:50.130 --> 01:21:50.640 Daffodil Tyminski: William. 724 01:21:51.210 --> 01:21:51.540 Yes. 725 01:21:53.490 --> 01:21:57.630 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, and although yes to so the motion hold on one second is to table. 726 01:21:58.740 --> 01:22:00.180 Daffodil Tyminski: To January. 727 01:22:01.620 --> 01:22:02.580 Daffodil Tyminski: To develop. 728 01:22:04.410 --> 01:22:05.430 Daffodil Tyminski: examples. 729 01:22:08.160 --> 01:22:08.640 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay. 730 01:22:09.660 --> 01:22:14.250 Daffodil Tyminski: All right, great so the motion carries unanimously. 731 01:22:16.620 --> 01:22:23.370 Daffodil Tyminski: And then again if anyone wants to give me a call or talk about it, please do throughout the month and then we'll bring this back on anywhere. 732 01:22:31.230 --> 01:22:41.520 Charles Rosin: Relative tonight we don't have to discuss this now, but it was a question a general question out, am I, the only one that seen a deterioration in this over the last few years. 733 01:22:41.910 --> 01:22:45.390 Daffodil Tyminski: So let's move on to Item nine which is trash and street cleaning. 734 01:22:47.430 --> 01:22:48.960 Daffodil Tyminski: Go ahead chuck you can buy you buy. 735 01:22:49.590 --> 01:22:56.970 Charles Rosin: I started it was like a month like six weeks and and it just seemed not everything was done in the day and it meant that the street. 736 01:22:58.470 --> 01:23:00.150 Charles Rosin: clean up the street clean. 737 01:23:01.200 --> 01:23:09.990 Charles Rosin: hands, there was still sitting out there and they weren't being done and and it just seemed like is this going on in every other places in Venice. 738 01:23:10.980 --> 01:23:24.540 Charles Rosin: And that was my curiosity is no because we tend to be those of us who live here to know where we're really 14 different neighborhoods and so here, I saw it as as the merging of of just. 739 01:23:26.040 --> 01:23:31.980 Charles Rosin: sitting in efficiency and I didn't know if there was any coordination or how it even works I didn't know. 740 01:23:34.620 --> 01:23:42.870 Daffodil Tyminski: um well I have let me say one thing to this and we'll open up to public comment tuck when you brought this up, it was kind of ironic, because my neighbors and I. 741 01:23:43.590 --> 01:23:53.100 Daffodil Tyminski: Talk about this, all the time, because our trash not only is our trash erratic but I don't know if this happens all over Venice, but in our neighborhood they don't recycle and. 742 01:23:54.240 --> 01:24:05.190 Daffodil Tyminski: They use the blue cans and they actually send the truck back through to pick it up a second time, and as the trash guy told me literally to make it look like they're recycling but it's the same. 743 01:24:05.580 --> 01:24:12.780 Daffodil Tyminski: truck they use they just dump everything in a second time, and I said, well, that seems kind of silly and it turns out that. 744 01:24:13.740 --> 01:24:23.670 Daffodil Tyminski: The recycling trucks, that the city has don't fit down a lot of the Venice alleys, including mine, which is a substandard alley so they just kind of fake it. 745 01:24:24.360 --> 01:24:38.790 Daffodil Tyminski: And we had been talking to the Council office as to whether I live right off mean shoot on a walk straight and whether we could just bring our cans for cycling on the Main Street, so that we actually could resell in our neighborhood and first that whole you know. 746 01:24:40.350 --> 01:24:46.080 Daffodil Tyminski: But so when you brought this up, I thought well you know my neighbors are all trying to figure this out as well, and this is obviously. 747 01:24:46.770 --> 01:24:56.610 Daffodil Tyminski: A topic I also learned that I do not think streets are cleaned on a weekly basis, I think it's every other week now, even though, for parking purposes it's enforced every week. 748 01:24:57.630 --> 01:25:03.210 Daffodil Tyminski: So with that that's my two cents on it, is there any public comment Does anyone want to weigh in or have any. 749 01:25:04.410 --> 01:25:06.420 Daffodil Tyminski: Questions or comments on trashing screening. 750 01:25:11.250 --> 01:25:15.360 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, seeing no hands let's go back to the committee on this one. 751 01:25:16.920 --> 01:25:30.450 Daffodil Tyminski: If there's no motion here, by the way, I am did this, just as a discussion point and I thought I would really want to get the committee's thoughts on what they think is going on, and then we can either come up with emotion now or have one next month. 752 01:25:32.250 --> 01:25:33.600 Yolanda Gonzalez: I would like to speak on it. 753 01:25:33.810 --> 01:25:35.520 Daffodil Tyminski: daffodil sure go ahead Yolanda. 754 01:25:36.000 --> 01:25:47.400 Yolanda Gonzalez: Okay i'm so glad this is brought up because first of all, we have ordinances and we've been given up by the city what you need to do with your trash how to dispose of it. 755 01:25:48.030 --> 01:26:00.390 Yolanda Gonzalez: If it's in your House it's your trash once it's put out on the on the street property to be picked up that's property of the city second. 756 01:26:01.560 --> 01:26:10.590 Yolanda Gonzalez: Like you take the Oxford triangle, people are responsible to take out their trash and put their trash cans back in side their property. 757 01:26:11.100 --> 01:26:19.740 Yolanda Gonzalez: That is the ordinance in the city, you do not leave your trash cans out now I live here up on all hambro alley. 758 01:26:20.520 --> 01:26:32.370 Yolanda Gonzalez: And the problem that we are having is that people dump the trash and, of course, unfortunately, the homeless dig into it, and then they take everything out they dump everything out and they leave the trash. 759 01:26:32.730 --> 01:26:46.530 Yolanda Gonzalez: out on the side on the alley and what happens is when the trash people come to pick it up, they have a hard time going through, because there's glass and whatever there is for them to go through. 760 01:26:47.130 --> 01:26:59.850 Yolanda Gonzalez: Now we can start a program that we go through sections of the city of our Community actually and start putting these ordinances in place. 761 01:27:00.240 --> 01:27:10.650 Yolanda Gonzalez: You either put your trash out the day it's going to be picked up or put it back in and make sure that the trash people do pick up properly. 762 01:27:11.160 --> 01:27:23.460 Yolanda Gonzalez: In the city of pasadena you cannot leave your trash cans out, not one day because they will find I find you, and they will put a ticket on your trash cans that you need to put that trash can back inside your property. 763 01:27:24.240 --> 01:27:33.450 Yolanda Gonzalez: And it happens in other cities, we can do the same thing, because our streets and our hours are looking terrible and there's no reason for it. 764 01:27:35.310 --> 01:27:49.890 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, great thanks um yeah where I grew up by the way, you were not allowed to put your cans out before 5pm The night before and they had to be back in your House by 10am the next day or i'll see you would get a big red sticker on your trash cans, with a ticket. 765 01:27:51.960 --> 01:27:56.160 Daffodil Tyminski: Here it's pretty much a free for all Darrell you have your hand up did you want to speak on this issue. 766 01:27:56.190 --> 01:28:00.630 Darryl DuFay: yeah i'm glad you clarified, but you put here because I thought it was so broad. 767 01:28:01.230 --> 01:28:08.670 Darryl DuFay: yeah I can only speak to trash collection and in the canals because it's it's excellent. 768 01:28:09.270 --> 01:28:23.370 Darryl DuFay: And they have we are, we have our three things street cleaning, we only have courts and they do not clean the courts they've never been cleaned so for those that have other problems i'm glad you put it up, so we can get more information. 769 01:28:24.570 --> 01:28:25.350 Daffodil Tyminski: Oh thanks Darrell. 770 01:28:26.580 --> 01:28:31.500 Daffodil Tyminski: anyone else, want to comment on this, or do you know I don't know. 771 01:28:32.820 --> 01:28:35.940 Daffodil Tyminski: What the emotion is here, because it is such a broad topic I. 772 01:28:36.150 --> 01:28:39.450 Charles Rosin: wasn't trying to make emotion, I was trying to do what where Am I. 773 01:28:39.960 --> 01:28:41.910 Charles Rosin: Part of town that it's like. 774 01:28:42.720 --> 01:28:46.770 Charles Rosin: No time on their hands and saw this in other places too, I was my. 775 01:28:47.010 --> 01:28:48.360 Yolanda Gonzalez: he's right he's right. 776 01:28:49.500 --> 01:28:56.580 Daffodil Tyminski: let's not motion yeah I think what we'll do with this one is um you know there's no other public comment. 777 01:28:57.900 --> 01:29:04.770 Daffodil Tyminski: So we'll probably close this out we've also got a little bit over, but I would just keep this. 778 01:29:05.370 --> 01:29:17.340 Daffodil Tyminski: topic alive, I know my neighbors are actively pursuing this with the Council office trying to get some answers, and that may shed some light on as the dnc maybe what we could do in the future to help with this. 779 01:29:18.210 --> 01:29:21.600 Yolanda Gonzalez: If I may may, may I make a comment on this stuff a door. 780 01:29:22.200 --> 01:29:22.920 Daffodil Tyminski: For go ahead. 781 01:29:23.730 --> 01:29:33.120 Yolanda Gonzalez: apartment owners apartment buildings for less than five units a tenant pays on his electric bill a trash pickup. 782 01:29:34.260 --> 01:29:43.710 Yolanda Gonzalez: For any apartment beyond the units, they have to get their own private service to come and pick up the trash Okay, they do not recycle. 783 01:29:45.120 --> 01:29:45.600 Yolanda Gonzalez: Now. 784 01:29:46.950 --> 01:29:58.380 Yolanda Gonzalez: The city has put out recycle special bins and the private companies when we were not in control of these trash people put out recycling bins, especially for that. 785 01:29:59.460 --> 01:30:07.020 Yolanda Gonzalez: that's another issue that we need to attack that if they are going to be picking up just one trash and they don't recycle we've got a problem. 786 01:30:09.150 --> 01:30:25.260 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay um well, I suggest like what the sidewalk issue, because these are kind of quality of life, issues that that are probably pervasive in our Community is that we just reach out to our neighbors and try to suss out with a little more specificity, what exactly the problems are. 787 01:30:26.520 --> 01:30:32.640 Daffodil Tyminski: And what we can do before, for example, for the recycling issue if they're not picking up recycling. 788 01:30:33.690 --> 01:30:40.380 Daffodil Tyminski: You know, we can try to start that or at least have the city, maybe, give us a drop off point somewhere which a lot of cities do a lot of neighborhoods do. 789 01:30:40.710 --> 01:30:48.660 Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, um and, similarly, with the street cleaning chuck I don't know, do you want to follow up on that. 790 01:30:49.230 --> 01:30:50.700 Charles Rosin: I certainly you know but. 791 01:30:51.210 --> 01:30:57.060 Charles Rosin: One of the places where the trucks come out of is just not far from me or an average me. 792 01:30:57.960 --> 01:31:02.400 Charles Rosin: And i'll probably just maybe walk my dog over there and knock on somebody's word. 793 01:31:03.450 --> 01:31:11.850 Charles Rosin: Out of the recycling trucks work, because if the cycling is the one that that stays is the one that doesn't get picked up every day. 794 01:31:11.910 --> 01:31:15.180 Charles Rosin: right and it is not really recycle. 795 01:31:16.560 --> 01:31:19.710 Charles Rosin: um you know that would be. 796 01:31:24.030 --> 01:31:29.580 Daffodil Tyminski: I personally I think it's a dirty little secret that the city doesn't want anyone to know that they're not really recycling. 797 01:31:30.450 --> 01:31:34.800 Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, because they told me sort of like oops you know. 798 01:31:34.860 --> 01:31:37.050 Yolanda Gonzalez: Just so you know right you're right. 799 01:31:37.770 --> 01:31:46.770 Daffodil Tyminski: um but yeah well I do our office Office about that we're obviously again my neighbors down the Wall Street are all on this. 800 01:31:47.640 --> 01:31:48.240 Daffodil Tyminski: And i'm. 801 01:31:48.780 --> 01:31:49.590 Yolanda Gonzalez: You know. 802 01:31:50.250 --> 01:31:53.880 Yolanda Gonzalez: yeah can work with chuck on this one i'm really good at this one i've done. 803 01:31:56.610 --> 01:31:57.300 Charles Rosin: Everything. 804 01:31:58.320 --> 01:32:01.350 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I can sense that okay great no. 805 01:32:01.800 --> 01:32:03.000 Yolanda Gonzalez: 25 years. 806 01:32:03.300 --> 01:32:15.870 Daffodil Tyminski: Again let's have a brief discussion about this and report back next meeting, which brings me to I think next meeting I would book out a like an hour and a half for it because we went a little bit over now and some of these issues are going to come back. 807 01:32:17.910 --> 01:32:26.850 Daffodil Tyminski: So just for everyone's planning purposes, maybe we'll do 830 to 10 or eight to 930 depending on everyone's schedule um. 808 01:32:27.930 --> 01:32:38.010 Daffodil Tyminski: But um but if we're gonna not take action on this now, I think we're at number 10 anyone have any other closing comments or things they want to bring up or. 809 01:32:40.290 --> 01:32:45.480 Charles Rosin: I think it would be good if we're gonna have an hour and a half meetings which is fine with me that they do start in a body. 810 01:32:46.650 --> 01:32:51.750 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay yeah that's as someone that works full time that's good for me, too, because I can you know get on my day. 811 01:32:53.430 --> 01:32:54.090 Darryl DuFay: yeah do. 812 01:32:54.540 --> 01:33:07.860 Darryl DuFay: Yes, no oh i'm following through on the representation, because I went back on the three years and I see that we had 14 people 13 to 14 people. 813 01:33:08.490 --> 01:33:20.190 Darryl DuFay: And it hasn't been brought up to date and I wanted to send something to you what I just wanted to ask I have served Sergio his name down, but I don't know what area, he represents. 814 01:33:22.500 --> 01:33:26.340 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm Sergio was East Venice business community. 815 01:33:28.560 --> 01:33:31.530 Daffodil Tyminski: Right or Lincoln the Lincoln card or business community. 816 01:33:32.820 --> 01:33:37.770 Darryl DuFay: Lincoln cord or that you were talking about the block on both sides right Lincoln. 817 01:33:39.210 --> 01:33:42.090 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I mean technically Sergio was from East Venice. 818 01:33:43.410 --> 01:33:53.430 Daffodil Tyminski: And i'll give everyone a brief background on this we I originally had thought Sergio was the East Venice person, and then it turns out he's Venice had actually put in. 819 01:33:54.390 --> 01:34:06.600 Daffodil Tyminski: William as well, who is on here, I think I in the beginning, actually until this week I didn't have access to the back end of the dnc website so I didn't know that William had submitted his application it never made its way to me. 820 01:34:07.050 --> 01:34:11.190 Daffodil Tyminski: And when I realized that we now had two people from respect us, I was like well just. 821 01:34:11.250 --> 01:34:28.110 Daffodil Tyminski: let's both put you on because I know Sergio wanted to focus on the business community which frankly along Lincoln is is way more uptown think it has been in your past and they do have some unique to us at being again small business owners so. 822 01:34:28.620 --> 01:34:30.810 Darryl DuFay: So William and so William is east. 823 01:34:31.020 --> 01:34:34.650 Darryl DuFay: East coast, I had them down itself and so okay. 824 01:34:35.430 --> 01:34:40.320 Daffodil Tyminski: Now, William esophagus and then we have a few more people that are coming on this month. 825 01:34:40.470 --> 01:34:43.710 Darryl DuFay: That will go next well that's fine, I just wanted to ask him, I just. 826 01:34:44.370 --> 01:34:53.310 Daffodil Tyminski: just keep out and then I will then I will build out the website, because now actually have access to it that I can go down there and fix up the neighborhood committee page. 827
