102
00:10:47.010 --> 00:10:48.900
Ivan: hey Jim I have a question for you.

103
00:10:49.200 --> 00:10:49.770
jim murez: Go ahead.

104
00:10:50.430 --> 00:10:53.820
Ivan: Alright, I don't remember what we used to do with the de minimis.

105
00:10:54.870 --> 00:10:56.940
Ivan: it's not a consent calendar.

106
00:10:57.360 --> 00:10:59.010
Ivan: Actually, I did like one.

107
00:10:59.520 --> 00:11:12.870
jim murez: yeah I talked to Freddie about it is is consent calendar item we could make it or we could make it a regular agenda item also but because the Board is taking action on the item it's a requirement that it goes before the board.

108
00:11:13.170 --> 00:11:22.230
Ivan: we're running, yet the Ward hacks take a vote that I don't remember if people could pull it off there and not talk about them.

109
00:11:24.990 --> 00:11:30.690
jim murez: I would assume that that would be the only way it could be handled, I mean you're the parliamentarian, you need to tell.

110
00:11:30.690 --> 00:11:31.230
Ivan: him no but.

111
00:11:31.650 --> 00:11:37.890
Ivan: it's not going to say that anywhere, the specific thing, for you know for Luca it.

112
00:11:37.920 --> 00:11:45.210
jim murez: yeah so they were heard in lieu pack loop hacks said that they had no interest, the general public, had the opportunity.

113
00:11:45.630 --> 00:11:51.870
jim murez: To speak on them, the general public, had no interest the board now needs to take an action, saying that right don't.

114
00:11:52.350 --> 00:12:07.170
jim murez: So I if somebody in the public were to come up and say gee I have an interest in item, whatever the number is I would assume that we would take it out of the consent calendar put it onto the regular board agenda.

115
00:12:07.530 --> 00:12:14.400
jim murez: And okay decide whether or not the issue of it being de minimis was justified or not.

116
00:12:15.150 --> 00:12:17.430
Ivan: Okay, so why don't we go with that.

117
00:12:17.430 --> 00:12:18.150
Ivan: For tonight.

118
00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:19.200
yeah.

119
00:12:20.220 --> 00:12:22.650
Ivan: I didn't want to waste time during the meeting.

120
00:12:22.890 --> 00:12:30.570
jim murez: No, no, I hear you I it's pretty and I talked a little bit about it, and it was sort of decided that that that would be the best way to handle it.

121
00:12:30.870 --> 00:12:35.430
jim murez: Okay, it hasn't been done for the last few years only because the letters weren't being generated.

122
00:12:35.970 --> 00:12:37.320
Ivan: Right are.

218
00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:02.850
Daffodil Tyminski: eye, and let me just double check for a number of the loop heck.

00:18:03.900 --> 00:18:07.470
Daffodil Tyminski: Items 21 South Abbot kinney.

220

221
00:18:13.980 --> 00:18:15.600
Daffodil Tyminski: 717 seventh.

222
00:18:16.650 --> 00:18:26.400
Daffodil Tyminski: and actually almost every single item on here, I had some conversation with either the applicant or the representative, as a result of handling some of the loop matters for a month.

223
00:18:28.080 --> 00:18:38.370
Daffodil Tyminski: I also did speak with the applicant and one of the representatives on 1217 ocean front walk trying to sort out the permit history on that project.

224
00:18:40.320 --> 00:18:45.750
Daffodil Tyminski: And I spoke to a few folks about number 30, which is the proposed mike's committee.

225
00:18:47.430 --> 00:18:47.850
Daffodil Tyminski: that's it.

226
00:18:48.540 --> 00:18:55.560
jim murez: Okay, thank you, I guess, the Vice President has been very busy this month good to know good to know um.

228
00:19:00.390 --> 00:19:07.020
jim murez: I too had a couple conversations about the the proposed new committee.

229
00:19:09.600 --> 00:19:14.940
jim murez: And I think that's about it Oh, I had some some email correspondence about.

230
00:19:16.020 --> 00:19:25.170
jim murez: bellew pack item on ocean front walk, that is, the fee item that's on the agenda tonight, not on the cassette items I don't remember what the number was.

231
00:19:26.850 --> 00:19:31.170
jim murez: Other than that, did anybody else have their hands up I don't see any other hands will move on, if not.

232
00:19:32.850 --> 00:19:33.960
Daffodil Tyminski: I see no hands Jim.

233
00:19:34.260 --> 00:19:37.770
jim murez: Okay, thanks stuff so it's really hard, I only get to see like one hand at a time.

234
00:19:37.830 --> 00:19:38.670
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I know it's hard.

235
00:19:39.210 --> 00:19:54.930
jim murez: yeah okay so i'm going to record that away um so we're moving right down to scheduled announcements and presentations which brings us to lapd or the fire department, who would like to go first I think last month.

236
00:19:56.280 --> 00:20:01.170
jim murez: lapd went first so is is Mr hogan here this evening.

237
00:20:02.010 --> 00:20:03.450
Armando Hogan: I am, Sir, thank you.

238
00:20:03.990 --> 00:20:09.150
jim murez: Well, first, I remember from last month we said they got to go first last time this time it's your turn.

239
00:20:09.480 --> 00:20:15.000
Armando Hogan: Yes, and they did such a good job, it was difficult to follow them, so I appreciate you hearing my pain.

240
00:20:15.420 --> 00:20:16.620
Armando Hogan: So neagle.

241
00:20:17.010 --> 00:20:22.680
Armando Hogan: I, I understand, to the your time constraints, so i'll be as brief as I can.

242
00:20:23.100 --> 00:20:30.450
Armando Hogan: I want to start off and just talk about three things I want to apologize to vicki first because vicki always wants me to bring statistical information.

243
00:20:30.870 --> 00:20:41.190
Armando Hogan: And because right now we're going through our data looking at rubbish fires versus encampment fires, and I really want to get accurate information when I give you percentages, so I.

244
00:20:41.850 --> 00:20:53.640
Armando Hogan: Am 98% sure the next meeting I attend i'll have those have that data set for you so we'll have something to look at I see CAP enbridge looking at me going yeah right but stay with me there kept.

245
00:20:54.570 --> 00:21:06.930
Armando Hogan: we're going to make it happen The other thing I want to talk about is our frb program that's their fast response vehicle as it relates to pH person is experiencing homelessness now one of the things that we have just come up with.

246
00:21:07.590 --> 00:21:13.650
Armando Hogan: I recognize our folks are doing great work there been doing such a great job of being ambassadors for the fd.

247
00:21:14.190 --> 00:21:21.330
Armando Hogan: The challenges we're falling short after we make contact with individuals in encampments right, so if someone approaches.

248
00:21:21.900 --> 00:21:31.800
Armando Hogan: One of our guys we catch him cooking warming fire, whatever the issue is, and they say to us hey we'd like to get off the street or i've got a drug problem, can you get me some help.

249
00:21:32.250 --> 00:21:45.300
Armando Hogan: we're falling short because there's really no one to call to get them to come out to play the role of assisting that individual to get to whatever that next step is so right now my rv is in Council district four.

250
00:21:45.810 --> 00:21:51.300
Armando Hogan: And what we're looking to do is trying to build that infrastructure so when I bring it to a particular community.

251
00:21:51.750 --> 00:21:57.330
Armando Hogan: i'll have all of those elements in place, so we can look at someone who's saying, I want to get off the street.

252
00:21:57.840 --> 00:22:08.370
Armando Hogan: here's how we can help you and then take them through those steps, when we look at it from a time allotment where i'm looking at having some type of intervention within an hour.

253
00:22:09.150 --> 00:22:16.740
Armando Hogan: Because most of you know, after about an hour they're either going to move and go someplace else, or possibly forget the conversation and discussion that we had.

254
00:22:17.100 --> 00:22:23.550
Armando Hogan: So i'm really looking to build that up so every time I go to a particular Council district, or we do it by fire station districts.

255
00:22:23.850 --> 00:22:30.630
Armando Hogan: I can say here's what I need to have if i'm going to bring the Fr V there, because what ends up happening is my Members are now.

256
00:22:30.930 --> 00:22:38.460
Armando Hogan: losing a little credibility when they're saying they're there to help, but they can't go beyond you know just being a deterrent for fires that are being set.

257
00:22:38.940 --> 00:22:48.750
Armando Hogan: So i'm looking at that aspect, right now, the other thing I wanted to share and i'll probably send this to vicki talking to my arson folks we recently put out a crime alert.

258
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:55.260
Armando Hogan: For young member, I want to thank lapd for their assistance for an individual that we have on video.

259
00:22:55.680 --> 00:23:06.810
Armando Hogan: Setting fires originally We thought that individuals part of the pH Community doesn't appear that that's the case and that's why it's been difficult for us to try to track that individual down.

260
00:23:07.320 --> 00:23:22.290
Armando Hogan: What we're seeing a little bit, particularly my arson investigators are that some of the folks that are starting fires now aren't necessarily a part of the pH Community I don't know if that spite if that's just anger or frustration, but we're seeing a little bit more of that.

261
00:23:23.310 --> 00:23:33.270
Armando Hogan: already been made aware of a person of interest that we have that does real estate up in sacramento we saw the license plate on the vehicle, with the assistance of lapd we ran those plates.

262
00:23:33.600 --> 00:23:40.410
Armando Hogan: And we can see that person's a realtor but their vehicle was right in the same location and drove off after a fire was set.

263
00:23:40.950 --> 00:23:50.940
Armando Hogan: So one of the things that I have now i'm exploring is how do I get arson investigators to the scene quicker and I know I shared this with you all previously.

264
00:23:51.240 --> 00:24:02.400
Armando Hogan: And the direction we're moving now is because i'm short on staff with my arson investigators i'm trying to look at what's the best way that I can get them to respond so i'm trying to pre position that.

265
00:24:02.790 --> 00:24:09.810
Armando Hogan: Excuse me pre position them in an area where I know I have some what I consider to be high, a.

266
00:24:10.260 --> 00:24:17.400
Armando Hogan: Fire activity or possibly encampment or rubbish fires or or or garbage fires, however, you choose to call them.

267
00:24:17.760 --> 00:24:23.250
Armando Hogan: And, basically, what I want to have them do is respond right there, so they can capture their cameras in the area.

268
00:24:23.670 --> 00:24:33.600
Armando Hogan: Did we see people walking away, can we capture some folks that may have witnessed it is this an issue is this a pH on pH situation so i'm looking to see what we can do there.

269
00:24:34.110 --> 00:24:43.110
Armando Hogan: The other thing to take that even a step further, speaking with our current fire chief will soon be the former fire chief and speaking with our soon to be fire chief.

270
00:24:43.860 --> 00:24:56.040
Armando Hogan: we're basically just put out a memo to the entire department and giving them a step by step, on what we expect if they come across an encampment particularly we had a situation where we had anywhere from about.

271
00:24:56.190 --> 00:24:57.750
Armando Hogan: Seven to about 11.

272
00:24:57.810 --> 00:25:00.360
Armando Hogan: trashcan fires that were being said on the boardwalk.

273
00:25:00.780 --> 00:25:10.710
Armando Hogan: And I had two different resources respond and nobody ever compared notes, so I ended up having to send resources out there because i'm curious as to why are we going in the same location.

274
00:25:11.040 --> 00:25:16.860
Armando Hogan: And our folks weren't picking up on that and the challenge with that was is because these folks aren't normally assigned.

275
00:25:17.190 --> 00:25:25.230
Armando Hogan: In to the business area, so they were somewhat unaware, so we want to put that information out to make sure our folks are situationally ready.

276
00:25:25.530 --> 00:25:31.800
Armando Hogan: So that when they respond to these incidents, we can get hearts in there much sooner and make sure that we're addressing the issue.

277
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:36.180
Armando Hogan: And then, as I mentioned, the last thing that will talk about is.

278
00:25:36.600 --> 00:25:48.750
Armando Hogan: Our alerts opting into la FT or going to our alerts and then that way it kind of gives you all, an idea, so if you're seeing something or if there's a challenge, please feel free to reach out to me.

279
00:25:49.320 --> 00:26:03.030
Armando Hogan: Either through James or through vicki so I can do whatever I can to best address those needs so other than that James i'm going to give it back to you, but that's kind of my report, but thank you all, and if there's any questions, for me, I stand at the ready.

280
00:26:03.540 --> 00:26:08.610
jim murez: I have one question I guess is as President of this organization and and.

281
00:26:09.090 --> 00:26:22.140
jim murez: Member of the Community i'm wondering if if there's anything we can do it, for instance in writing a letter or, in some way of supporting the the issues that you have, for instance, the the.

282
00:26:22.530 --> 00:26:31.020
jim murez: Being able to support getting you contact people, for your frb program or are there other things that we might be like in a letter writing campaign or.

283
00:26:31.320 --> 00:26:39.330
jim murez: Or is there, somebody that we should be reaching out to to help support that it sounds like you're doing great work and we need to to step up, maybe, but again I don't know.

284
00:26:39.540 --> 00:26:45.570
Armando Hogan: Well, let me say this, Mr President, I do appreciate that and here's The thing that I need most from you all.

285
00:26:46.140 --> 00:26:55.350
Armando Hogan: When you all tell us what the challenges are, and I mean be as specific as you can so I can say all right, because i'm getting this many complaints about X.

286
00:26:55.620 --> 00:27:01.350
Armando Hogan: here's the type resources we need for that you see what I mean so if we can just do our own assessment.

287
00:27:01.650 --> 00:27:13.920
Armando Hogan: look to see what the needs are send that to us because right now, I know I need drug addiction specialist I know I need mental health professionals, I know i'm going to need some type of ability to.

288
00:27:15.390 --> 00:27:29.160
Armando Hogan: have my folks there that we can either educate or deter individuals from fighting fires or from starting fires, excuse me so based on that I already have those things in place if you all are seeing something else that's lacking.

289
00:27:29.520 --> 00:27:34.560
Armando Hogan: In this area, please let us know and i'm only speaking from the fire departments perspective I can't get into.

290
00:27:35.010 --> 00:27:46.140
Armando Hogan: My other partners in terms of what their needs are, but if you can do anything like that that helps me build out that infrastructure i'm attempting to build out so when I go to the Council office, I can say hey.

291
00:27:46.410 --> 00:28:01.320
Armando Hogan: i've gotten 15 complaints about X i've got 10 complaints about why so if I have to prioritize that, then I can kind of give them a roadmap as to what I need you guys have been great, what are the other things i'm going to do is send it to vicki and probably to you as well.

292
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:08.700
Armando Hogan: Jim is the prime alert, so that you guys may notice this individual so that way we can work.

293
00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:17.490
Armando Hogan: Along those lines, I apologize for the delay, but our folks were kind of trying to catch him so we didn't want to put all that information out right lapd knows that better than I.

294
00:28:17.820 --> 00:28:23.130
Armando Hogan: and fire department, we kind of messed that up right, we should have just been working with the lapd on it to come up with a better way but.

295
00:28:23.580 --> 00:28:29.010
Armando Hogan: Now, as we continue to look for individuals and as we're getting more of a pattern and practice as to what's happening.

296
00:28:29.370 --> 00:28:41.730
Armando Hogan: will be reaching out, but if you all, from a Community standpoint can keep me informed keep us informed of what the needs are what are you seeing what are the biggest challenges, and then I can let you know how best your la FT can address that for you.

297
00:28:43.320 --> 00:28:45.900
jim murez: appreciate it, thank you very much, and thank you for coming this evening.

298
00:28:46.230 --> 00:28:47.190
Vicki Halliday: Yes, your amanda.

299
00:28:47.460 --> 00:28:49.950
Armando Hogan: always a pleasure Thank you all thanks.

300
00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:56.550
jim murez: So on that note, who wants to take off, who wants to leave the lapd report this evening.

301
00:28:57.360 --> 00:29:09.450
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: You know I will talk about a hard act to follow a lot of tea it's always difficult to do after Chico Chico again and he did have a Stat in his presentation and that was the 90% probability that he will have stats next time, so thank you chief.

302
00:29:10.380 --> 00:29:17.070
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: Okay, anyway, so I did want to talk about in one thing, before I do get into my statistics, I did want to mention that.

303
00:29:17.400 --> 00:29:21.600
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: I wanted to thank the fire investigators, because they had been very responsive, in my experience.

304
00:29:21.840 --> 00:29:31.410
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: So our biggest blade and reporting and I want to share this with the Community is that people actually filing police reports, because in the first two instances we become aware of the fires.

305
00:29:31.680 --> 00:29:39.840
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: Not because they were reported to the fire department or to the police department, but because we became aware of them you guys have a very strong social media network.

306
00:29:40.200 --> 00:29:47.220
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: And everybody is very used to sharing information that way, and that is how we became aware of the fires in the arson incidents, so we could perhaps.

307
00:29:47.610 --> 00:29:58.530
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: Close some of that reporting time by contacting 911 and they will make the appropriate dispatch because the moment we became aware of it, we call the fire department, then they immediately sent investigator out to.

308
00:29:58.860 --> 00:30:03.600
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: To to start the investigations which led to that branch of the first two suspects very quickly.

309
00:30:04.770 --> 00:30:14.040
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: OK so moving on to police stuff I just did want to provide everybody with updated some of the activity that is going on, so I never I know, everybody is very concerned with Venice beach.

310
00:30:14.250 --> 00:30:20.670
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: Ever since and cabinet two homes, I think all of the city partners, as well as the nonprofits have been working together very well.

311
00:30:20.940 --> 00:30:32.130
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: So the attempt count has remained very low, as a result of not only enforcement but consistent outreach and we did have a meeting, since the last since the last time we met with the.

312
00:30:32.670 --> 00:30:37.290
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: dnc and during that meeting, we met with our city partners and we got a commitment.

313
00:30:38.010 --> 00:30:46.560
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: To continue this maintenance and that maintenance plan includes continued support and participation from number one our partners at La sanitation.

314
00:30:46.980 --> 00:30:52.950
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: They are committed to continue assisting with our overnight park close your operations.

315
00:30:53.550 --> 00:31:02.220
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: One thing that you're thinking about switching up days in which, in which that operations is is conducted because it becomes very predictable.

316
00:31:02.700 --> 00:31:10.500
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: and persons who want to avoid that type of enforcement understand that you know, a Thursday nights agents have to do their stuff to avoid enforcement, so we are talking about switching of days.

317
00:31:10.950 --> 00:31:18.210
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: We got an additional commitment from reckon parks in which reckon parks, is going to utilize some of their maintenance staff to assist.

318
00:31:18.630 --> 00:31:28.590
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: With the overnight park cleanups therefore providing us another night that we can go and conduct overnight cleanups the only limitation right now is that they require some specialized training.

319
00:31:28.950 --> 00:31:33.450
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: So number one that's the has Walker training number two Christmas so that has whopper.

320
00:31:33.870 --> 00:31:48.540
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: gives them the ability for their person had to be trained to safely remove hazardous items and number two the chrysalis provides them the ability and certification to conduct storage of these person's property so once they get enough personal training on that.

321
00:31:49.020 --> 00:31:56.130
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: Of the city partners will be able to to deploy on a second night and St joseph's Center has been.

322
00:31:57.390 --> 00:32:11.190
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: has been a fantastic partner throughout anytime we request their assistance to conduct outreach on these overnight park operations, they have been right there side by side with our officers and proud to say that there is a very service resistant person who.

323
00:32:11.220 --> 00:32:12.750
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: has lived on Venice beach for years.

324
00:32:13.140 --> 00:32:23.340
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: And you know St joseph's Center kudos out to them because they've made a major breakthrough and get that person house off of the off of the boardwalk no longer no longer living by the basketball courts.

325
00:32:23.880 --> 00:32:36.420
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: Okay, moving on the next area of concern is centennial Park, we know that is a major concern for the Community, not only for for you guys, but also for us, we are aware that that Community is currently about.

326
00:32:36.840 --> 00:32:43.890
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: 4040 in cabinets so we're working closely with Council district 11 reckon park sanitation.

327
00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:55.920
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: As well as our average provider St joseph's Center who has been doing a tremendous job an outreach at that particular Park, we would like to come up with a very coordinated response in which we can get the park.

328
00:32:56.280 --> 00:33:09.360
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: cleaned out to get people number one house number to get the park cleaned out and number three simultaneously get the surrounding streets cleaned out because we know that the previous cleanups at the parkway.

329
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:15.630
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: The success was only very temporary because people moved on to the streets, and as soon as the entire service.

330
00:33:16.080 --> 00:33:23.880
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: package left the area then everybody moved back and send it so to parks, I think there's a lot of progress or a lot of opportunities, we still have at that park.

331
00:33:24.420 --> 00:33:31.650
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: And finally Westminster senior Center I had a good conversation with Deputy Mayor Chamber miras and.

332
00:33:32.550 --> 00:33:41.790
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: One thing so on behalf of the nc invited him to come to the next, Venice neighbor accounts me so i'm going to communicate with with all of you on the board.

333
00:33:42.120 --> 00:33:49.290
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: And we will get him scheduled to make a presentation regarding the mayor circle program and what urban urban alchemy, is doing out here in Venice.

334
00:33:49.500 --> 00:33:58.080
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: But one item that I did want to share, because I know it was contentious with some parts of the Community is that they have suspended the decompression Center operations.

335
00:33:58.560 --> 00:34:12.450
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: At the Westminster senior Center and that that is no longer one of the aspects of the urban alchemy circle program, however, they are still working closely in partnership with us on the 24 seven.

336
00:34:13.590 --> 00:34:21.090
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: response to calls for service, and they also have their embedded proactive outreach teams working the Venice community.

337
00:34:21.690 --> 00:34:30.450
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: So it's always easy to talk about crime when we're doing well and I want to congratulate Venice, because your crime stats year to date are doing very well.

338
00:34:30.990 --> 00:34:39.360
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: Number one violent biggest sorry well i'll talk about Pacific in general, so Pacific areas down 16.6% in violent crime.

339
00:34:40.200 --> 00:34:50.010
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: area wide that's all of Pacific property crime is down 4.6% and a lot of that is largely due to the progress that was made in the Venice area because remember.

340
00:34:50.400 --> 00:35:03.990
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: Venice is very different, when you compare it this time to last year, so in Venice you guys are experienced at 26.7% reduction in violent crime things that considerably changed.

341
00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:08.820
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: I know there's still a lot of progress, we need to make, but the police department is working on that.

342
00:35:09.210 --> 00:35:17.250
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: So what I do have are some current concerns regarding property crimes in which i'm going to i'm but senior lead officer agent acosta.

343
00:35:17.550 --> 00:35:26.490
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: he's going to follow me and he'll get into more detail, because we do have some issues and property crimes, especially on advocacy that I want him to talk to you guys about in detail.

344
00:35:27.810 --> 00:35:30.540
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: last thing I wanted to mention is the Community Police Academy.

345
00:35:30.960 --> 00:35:43.410
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: And for all of you who are not where the La marathon will be conducted this Sunday our partner we're working with our partners to the fire department, who actually take the lead in planning and and managing the La marathon.

346
00:35:43.980 --> 00:36:01.470
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: And the course no longer terminates in Santa Monica it terminates in century city, but just for your awareness that it is going to impact traffic on the West side on Sunday morning, and thank you, Jim i'll be followed by senior lead officer Adrian costume Thank you everyone.

347
00:36:01.860 --> 00:36:02.340
jim murez: Thank you.

348
00:36:03.840 --> 00:36:08.790
Adrian Acosta: hey good evening everybody, this is senior leader officer Adrian acosta Thank you Captain ember.

349
00:36:09.660 --> 00:36:19.470
Adrian Acosta: Also online with me are starting to Brian cook who's in charge of our community relations office and started Jeffrey lubbock who is in charge of the senior officers.

350
00:36:20.280 --> 00:36:29.970
Adrian Acosta: As Captain number said yeah our violent crime right now is down your senior lead officer contrast for violent crime is down 26.7% for the year.

351
00:36:30.420 --> 00:36:44.160
Adrian Acosta: And my car which is basic are 13 is down 26.1% for the your overall Hers is down 23.2% overall minus down only 3.4% so that's a big disparity between.

352
00:36:44.520 --> 00:36:48.750
Adrian Acosta: Violent Crime and property crime, so the property crime is what's driving up my numbers right now.

353
00:36:49.080 --> 00:37:00.000
Adrian Acosta: Most significantly is burglaries and right away when you think of burglaries you think of home burglaries, but these are actually commercial burglaries that we've seen along the Abbot kinney corridor.

354
00:37:00.450 --> 00:37:15.090
Adrian Acosta: stretching all the way from Washington boulevard to maine and specifically in restaurants and the item stolen in almost every one of these burglaries was the restaurant safe so we're talking about some rather sophisticated criminals.

355
00:37:16.350 --> 00:37:22.500
Adrian Acosta: specifically targeting a very specific item, although one arrest one here rest was made.

356
00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:29.280
Adrian Acosta: We understand through our partners at Santa Monica and West la that some of those same burglaries with the same emos.

357
00:37:29.640 --> 00:37:42.270
Adrian Acosta: have been occurring in their area so we're working with the Co leads and detectives from both areas to try to make at least one more arrest, to try to figure out who this is who's responsible for this also.

358
00:37:42.990 --> 00:37:52.470
Adrian Acosta: What i've seen as an increase in burglary theft from vehicle at a clip of 41.7% increase from last year, what that is is we've seen.

359
00:37:53.100 --> 00:38:01.710
Adrian Acosta: Most of these occurred in my corridors again along Abbot kinney along Lincoln boulevard at along rose avenue, as we exit the pandemic.

360
00:38:02.190 --> 00:38:09.930
Adrian Acosta: And our restaurants and bars become more active people are our parking and becoming a little bit more careless maybe.

361
00:38:10.530 --> 00:38:20.430
Adrian Acosta: With their vehicles, because a lot of our burglaries are happening not only with vehicles left either unlocked or open windows, or sometimes even open doors.

362
00:38:20.940 --> 00:38:34.290
Adrian Acosta: But with valuable items in plain sight so that's something that we are getting the word out to the Community, the typical slogan of the reminder slogan is to lock it hi to keep it to make sure you keep your valuables safe.

363
00:38:35.220 --> 00:38:46.290
Adrian Acosta: Some some things of interest that are going to be happening soon along Abbot kinney the return of first Friday it's tentatively scheduled for Friday April 1.

364
00:38:47.400 --> 00:39:01.680
Adrian Acosta: they've been trying to the last couple of months to put an I think it's gonna be a little scaled back version, but hopefully by the summer to the end of summer we'll be back to a regular first Friday with food trucks and and the like a long Abbot kinney.

365
00:39:03.480 --> 00:39:20.250
Adrian Acosta: CINCO de Mayo celebration, is going to be happening in oakland park on Saturday April, the 30th in the in years past it's been a great event, with over 400 people in attendance, with a car show live bands and other cultural events.

366
00:39:21.540 --> 00:39:29.040
Adrian Acosta: that's again going to be Saturday the 30th of April in oakland park and should be all day and then in talking with.

367
00:39:29.970 --> 00:39:36.600
Adrian Acosta: The organizers dramatic any they are this is looking down the road, a little bit, but they are looking to do the Abbot kinney fest again this year.

368
00:39:37.020 --> 00:39:44.280
Adrian Acosta: At the end of September so stay tuned for updates on that one more thing captain and rick mentioned.

369
00:39:45.240 --> 00:39:51.960
Adrian Acosta: A person experiencing homelessness that was very service resistant well I had another side of very similar success story.

370
00:39:52.410 --> 00:40:01.620
Adrian Acosta: Along millwood and Lincoln boulevard if you travel that area you're probably familiar with the long running and can't minute long standing and cabinet next to the staple Center.

371
00:40:02.070 --> 00:40:12.300
Adrian Acosta: That individual finally accepted housing through Lhasa, and from what I understand he's doing well and thriving, although he is an orange county you did accept the.

372
00:40:13.020 --> 00:40:24.210
Adrian Acosta: He did accept the help and that was a several months, if not, almost a year in effort and coming so that's all I have for now i'll turn it over to my my sergeants if they have anything to add.

373
00:40:31.410 --> 00:40:36.630
Sgt II Brian Cook: yeah one thing again, thank you for having us on We certainly appreciate when we come and.

374
00:40:37.650 --> 00:40:38.970
Sgt II Brian Cook: and speak with all of you.

376
00:40:58.680 --> 00:41:18.210

jim murez: And do we have one more chip, did you want to speak to us.

381
00:41:52.770 --> 00:42:00.930
Sgt. Jeff Lovick: You know, the only thing I would add is that is that much like Captain every said, obviously we have a number of cooperative effort in swimming in a city that allowed us to.

382
00:42:01.320 --> 00:42:10.620
Sgt. Jeff Lovick: have some of these successes, but also the the the efforts that you guys are making and the communication that you're having to get the word out there is lagging us to.

383
00:42:11.400 --> 00:42:17.940
Sgt. Jeff Lovick: do a number of things get the reporting that we need, so we can address some of these issues and and also as.

384
00:42:18.420 --> 00:42:24.900
Sgt. Jeff Lovick: As we have these positive steps in terms of things opening back up again now that we're slowly peeling away from coven.

385
00:42:25.440 --> 00:42:38.370
Sgt. Jeff Lovick: Making sure that people maintain their diligence and the luck of hiding keep it and stuff like that, so that we can try and prevent some of these crimes from happening, and, of course, you know, keeping an eye on your neighborhood like everyone is doing so that's about all I have to add.

386
00:42:39.300 --> 00:42:41.370
jim murez: Thank you, Captain number are you still there.

387
00:42:44.790 --> 00:42:45.510
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: I answer.

388
00:42:45.780 --> 00:42:53.670
jim murez: So I just wanted to relay that we've gotten a lot of emails this past month about centennial park.

389
00:42:54.090 --> 00:43:04.440
jim murez: And what can be done there, I know you reported on that already you're working on it there's also a lot of along in the same the same emails a lot of concern about the the Westminster.

390
00:43:05.040 --> 00:43:19.620
jim murez: Senior Center park whatever we're calling it, these days, where the dog Park, is that the parking lot has been tremendously overrun and I just hope that you know if you have a chance to to take a deeper dive into that that would be great.

391
00:43:20.220 --> 00:43:34.710
Captain STEVE EMBRICH: yeah absolutely we're working on with club very closely with reckon parks, because it does contribute to our crime, although there has not been a spike in crime in that area where we understand it's a quality of life issue as well yeah.

560
01:01:15.420 --> 01:01:23.340
Zac Gaidzik: And la county has dropped the masking requirements when people are indoors Now I want to clarify.

561
01:01:24.300 --> 01:01:32.280
Zac Gaidzik: The pandemic is still happening, we are still in the midst of the pandemic, but because the rate of transmission within the Community.

562
01:01:32.520 --> 01:01:45.120
Zac Gaidzik: The rate of people in hospital hospitals currently and so on and so forth, is that a much lower level certain activities and actions are a lot safer than they were just a few months ago, so currently.

563
01:01:45.840 --> 01:01:55.440
Zac Gaidzik: You are allowed to take off your mask while you're inside that would still recommend it, especially for those that have underlying health conditions or other reasons, to make sure that they stay mast.

564
01:01:55.920 --> 01:02:09.390
Zac Gaidzik: Additionally, as of Saturday the masking requirement for schools and early child care and so on, has also been relaxed, so it is no longer required with That being said, and this is also true about all.

565
01:02:10.320 --> 01:02:13.830
Zac Gaidzik: businesses across the county and I want to make sure to emphasize this.

566
01:02:14.520 --> 01:02:23.580
Zac Gaidzik: la USD has decided not at least last I heard and correct me if i'm wrong has decided not to relax their masking requirement at this time.

567
01:02:24.030 --> 01:02:28.890
Zac Gaidzik: Any business is allowed to implement any additional strategies in order to prevent.

568
01:02:29.160 --> 01:02:35.670
Zac Gaidzik: The spread of the virus and so that's an important thing to clarify, so that people understand that they have an absolute right to do that.

569
01:02:35.910 --> 01:02:46.950
Zac Gaidzik: To make sure that their employees and the people that come into their shop are being extra safe though currently la county overall based on our numbers, we are relaxing and so just not required.

570
01:02:47.580 --> 01:02:56.970
Zac Gaidzik: The other thing, and the other thing I want to make sure that people know about is the La county post surge dashboard, and so this is something that I recommend everybody Google.

571
01:02:57.960 --> 01:03:04.770
Zac Gaidzik: The la county post search dashboard because it has a plethora of information about where we are in the pandemic.

572
01:03:04.980 --> 01:03:14.640
Zac Gaidzik: What the current metrics are certain metrics that we are following in case we do need to increase the requirements and be more restrictive in the future, and so on and so forth.

573
01:03:15.060 --> 01:03:25.170
Zac Gaidzik: it's really, really useful and best way to get to it is just Google la county post search dashboard it's really, really useful the final thing I want to note.

605
01:07:45.150 --> 01:07:54.900
Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): I am so glad you asked that question, I did have a meeting with my director about this, she was kind enough to point out the EG protocol documents page 10.

606
01:07:55.830 --> 01:08:07.350
Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): One of the paragraphs says your virtual environment includes your physical space which appears on video your virtual background background audio and your attire.

607
01:08:07.710 --> 01:08:17.610
Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): Your virtual environment should be void of any commercial advertising and political lobbying your virtual background should not be disruptive nor distracting to the meeting.

608
01:08:18.210 --> 01:08:30.000
Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): That quote is from page 10 of the big documents about videos and for that applies to neighbor Councils, as well as it's a.

609
01:08:31.410 --> 01:08:48.390
Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): committee members, so I would cite that as as being our departments recommendation and and we're asking for it to minimize any liability for those individuals to to stick with what was just stated, right now.

01:08:48.960 --> 01:08:49.290
Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): Thank you.

Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): stated to the board and every Commissioners back in the beginning of coven.

616
01:09:16.890 --> 01:09:25.560
Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): We had a plan, and then the protocols was a guiding document to help neighborhood councils as they worked toward transitioning from an in person to a virtual.

617
01:09:25.950 --> 01:09:39.630
Freddy Cupen-Ames (He/Him/His/El): Setting in the beginning of end the throes of coven so this document is 25 pages in total talking about meeting disruptions about public comment.

618
01:09:40.380 --> 01:09:56.250

619
01:09:56.790 --> 01:10:05.220
jim murez: Thank you Freddie you do appreciate it no can we can we move to the gentleman who had his hand up that's the mayor's office I didn't catch your name.

620
01:10:05.490 --> 01:10:09.750
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): It was evening everyone it's vicious on in the West area representative for.

621
01:10:09.750 --> 01:10:16.260
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): The mayor's office good to see you all again, I do have quite a few updates but i'll try to make them quick, because I know you have a packed agenda.

622
01:10:16.770 --> 01:10:25.440
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): First and foremost, something very relevant the mayor signed his 33rd executive directive, this month, this creates a city of Los Angeles tourism cabinet.

623
01:10:25.860 --> 01:10:32.790
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): And this will be a group of departmental general managers to help support the growth in the tourism and hospitality sectors within our city.

624
01:10:33.210 --> 01:10:43.950
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): As we all know, the pandemic has had a huge hit on those sectors, so the idea is hopefully this cabinet can help us get to the numbers that we were at creep endemic.

625
01:10:44.400 --> 01:10:54.570
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): And Venice being the centerpiece of La tourism, hopefully, will assist in that, and hopefully we can get more people visiting our city as we get closer to the Olympics.

626
01:10:55.650 --> 01:11:06.330
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): The last week mayor also signed a ordinance that will lower speed limits on 177 miles of city streets across Los Angeles this ordinance was a result of a.

627
01:11:07.260 --> 01:11:15.780
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): city attorney drafted motion, which was approved by the city council and was a direct result of the passage of assembly bill 43.

628
01:11:16.260 --> 01:11:23.340
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): Led by assembly Member lar Friedman, that does grant city's greater authority when it comes to controlling speed limits.

629
01:11:23.820 --> 01:11:36.330
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): And then I did want to point out some existing resources in the Community, that I think are very, very relevant first and foremost tax seasons here, and with that, like I said at the last meeting free tax prep la.

630
01:11:37.650 --> 01:11:46.710
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): Is a active program which provides a working class families, the ability of file both state and federal tax credits, at no cost.

631
01:11:47.070 --> 01:11:54.570
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): The website, for that is free tax prep le.com and folks have until the 18th of next month to utilize that service.

632
01:11:55.200 --> 01:12:00.570
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): And then the second service that I think is very relevant given the gas prices right now is la now.

633
01:12:01.080 --> 01:12:10.260
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): This is an ongoing on demand rideshare service operated by led ot the service area includes palms mar vista del rey and obviously Venice.

634
01:12:10.680 --> 01:12:21.690
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): You can download the APP for la now on the apple APP store or the Google play store if you don't have those technologies, you can also call 818493621.

635
01:12:22.230 --> 01:12:29.730
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): They are giving to free rides I believe still so it's a great alternative to using your car and the surface area is very relevant to this Community.

636
01:12:30.090 --> 01:12:38.640
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): And then, finally, I did want to point out the housing is key portal, which is the state's rental assistance program it will stop receiving applications, at the end of the month.

637
01:12:39.120 --> 01:12:48.360
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): So our housing department is promoting that and understates requests urging people to apply before the deadline on march 31 and what that'll and my report, thank you.

638
01:12:48.990 --> 01:12:58.440
jim murez: And and i'm not sure how to pronounce your name but, but let me ask you a question, because it's something that we've been getting for many months and we haven't had a deputy from your office for a long time.

639
01:13:00.240 --> 01:13:11.280
jim murez: When do you think the mayor plans to end the restriction on enforcing parking we have all kinds of different parking signs in our Community and and because we're as close to the beach.

640
01:13:12.030 --> 01:13:24.450
jim murez: it's something that comes up on a regular basis, and you know it's happened before the pandemic start right at the beginning of the pandemic actually and he suspended at all and and we haven't had a report so maybe you know or.

641
01:13:24.540 --> 01:13:34.200
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): could get back yes i'm glad you brought that up is there is a lot of miscommunication around that issue, the marriage is not enforcing any more toryism on.

642
01:13:34.650 --> 01:13:46.320
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): Vehicles specially with as it relates to the twin vehicle with dwelling moratorium that was adopted by a Council action on October 1 2020.

643
01:13:47.190 --> 01:13:55.950
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): They were supposed to bring back a report which is through led ot and lapd I believe recently at City Council they.

644
01:13:56.340 --> 01:14:05.400
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): approve that report, which will bring back enforcement it still has to go through the entire city council, so the report was approved by the transportation committee recently.

645
01:14:05.790 --> 01:14:17.520
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): However, that full report hasn't been approved by the entire Council so again, this is no mayoral action and the mayor has not placed a moratorium, this was a indefinite moratorium that was adopted by the city council.

646
01:14:18.480 --> 01:14:26.100
jim murez: Interesting Thank you very much we've been misinformed for some time, thank you and welcome next month we will have your name on our roster as well.

647
01:14:26.790 --> 01:14:27.330
Vishesh Anand (Mayor's Office): Thank you, Jim.

674
01:18:08.070 --> 01:18:17.730
jim murez: yeah we need, we need to have a showing of hands, we would have to have a minimum of 14 people to pass that and if we can't get a complete committee together.

01:18:26.640 --> 01:18:31.080
Daffodil Tyminski: And and, just to clarify, are you talking about a rules and selections meeting.

jim murez: If we can't get 14 people to say yes to revisions we can't adopt any revisions and we'll have to wait another two years before the bylaws could be amended.

682
01:19:02.850 --> 01:19:08.130
Daffodil Tyminski: Well, does it have someone that can't be there, Thursday, does it have to be on Thursday.

683

686
01:19:32.580 --> 01:19:37.320

698

jim murez: Does that work better for people.

699
01:20:23.370 --> 01:20:24.090

720
01:21:24.210 --> 01:21:25.920
Daffodil Tyminski: Well, let me just take one more count one.

721
01:21:26.250 --> 01:21:28.020
jim murez: Now we have 14 now we have 15.

722
01:21:30.120 --> 01:21:35.280
jim murez: Okay, so let's try let's everybody try and if some more of you can make it on Monday that would be great.

723
01:21:35.340 --> 01:21:37.470

726
01:21:44.490 --> 01:21:45.300
Daffodil Tyminski: Oh sorry sorry.

727
01:21:45.330 --> 01:21:46.980
Daffodil Tyminski: cj your hands or sorry.

728
01:21:47.700 --> 01:21:50.130
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah gotcha yeah you're right 15.

729
01:21:50.250 --> 01:21:51.330
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm at hand.

730
01:21:51.420 --> 01:22:00.120
jim murez: Okay, and there's some people that aren't here tonight that that all that might also be able to make it so let's plan on that everybody can lower hands.

731
01:22:00.300 --> 01:22:02.610
Daffodil Tyminski: Jim let's just be realistic here.

732
01:22:02.700 --> 01:22:06.960
Daffodil Tyminski: You know I don't know that either one of the folks that aren't here tonight are going to be able to do Monday.

733
01:22:07.200 --> 01:22:15.210
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, and we have 15 and we actually for these types of changes we need two thirds of the entire board.

734
01:22:15.480 --> 01:22:16.680
jim murez: that's 14 people.

735
01:22:16.950 --> 01:22:19.800
Daffodil Tyminski: Right, so we would need.

736
01:22:21.450 --> 01:22:21.810
Daffodil Tyminski: I mean.

737
01:22:23.310 --> 01:22:37.890
Daffodil Tyminski: Personally I, I think that to do a bylaws change which really does affect the board, we probably don't want to have like the slimmest margin possible, if anything, because we want everybody to be able to participate right.

738
01:22:39.240 --> 01:22:41.640
jim murez: Well, are you what are you suggesting.

739
01:22:42.270 --> 01:22:45.690
Daffodil Tyminski: Maybe Tuesday or you know monday's can be copper.

740
01:22:45.720 --> 01:22:49.200
Michael Jensen: dollar for every day of the week and let's find out which one we get the most for.

741
01:22:50.040 --> 01:22:51.630
Daffodil Tyminski: I honestly think we should have the.

742
01:22:51.630 --> 01:22:57.390
Daffodil Tyminski: Time one where we have the most board members there, so we have the most robust participation, yes or no.

743
01:22:57.480 --> 01:22:59.250
jim murez: I agree i'm.

744
01:22:59.580 --> 01:23:01.470
Sima Kostovetsky: Sorry, if I can just.

745
01:23:01.590 --> 01:23:09.000
Sima Kostovetsky: Type in for a second outreach it would make my job, a lot better so we had a little bit more time to involve.

746
01:23:09.810 --> 01:23:10.800
jim murez: So let's.

747
01:23:11.250 --> 01:23:20.880
CJ Cole: i'd like to say is that we do have a board that committed to doing the job, and it is the same people that consistently.

748
01:23:21.330 --> 01:23:37.230
CJ Cole: come early or whatever else I mean there are not that many things happening every night for people that they can't make it work once a year, other than the you know, whatever it is third Tuesday of the month.

749
01:23:37.470 --> 01:23:49.620
jim murez: understood understood cj let's let's see if we can get through 322 that'd be the Tuesday the 22nd everybody raised their hand for the 22nd and let's get a quick count does that work better for people.

750
01:23:58.410 --> 01:24:00.870
Daffodil Tyminski: It seems to behold, I need to count again one.

751
01:24:00.930 --> 01:24:02.010
jim murez: So it's 14.

752
01:24:06.270 --> 01:24:08.310
jim murez: it's 14 people 15 people.

753
01:24:08.610 --> 01:24:09.120
16.

754
01:24:10.260 --> 01:24:11.850
jim murez: We now have 1616 is.

755
01:24:12.570 --> 01:24:18.090
Daffodil Tyminski: Where the folks that aren't raising their hands is there, another day because I noticed you you're.

756
01:24:18.540 --> 01:24:18.900
CJ Cole: Also.

757
01:24:19.140 --> 01:24:21.900
Daffodil Tyminski: raise your hand before is there, another day that's better or.

758
01:24:23.370 --> 01:24:25.980
Nico Ruderman: This is NICO I raised my hand for Monday I can't do Tuesday.

759
01:24:27.660 --> 01:24:29.790
Nico Ruderman: I think any other day would probably be okay Tuesday is not good.

760
01:24:29.850 --> 01:24:32.550
jim murez: Okay, what about what about Wednesday the 23rd.

761
01:24:35.760 --> 01:24:38.190
jim murez: Everybody lower their hands, and then we raise them.

762
01:24:50.370 --> 01:24:52.620
jim murez: So Wednesday we only have 13.

763
01:24:54.870 --> 01:25:01.320
jim murez: So it looks like tuesday's the best day unless we want to try for next Thursday but we're really running out of time, if we have to do two meetings.

764
01:25:02.430 --> 01:25:02.850
jim murez: and

893
01:36:45.900 --> 01:36:58.230
Sean obrien: For the Olympics, held in Venice, I think it would be a travesty since basically skateboarding was invented in Venice and the first time it comes to La that.

894
01:36:59.220 --> 01:37:10.590
Sean obrien: Venice doesn't be able to showcase you know the skating culture for the Olympics, so I don't know if rob's working on that or anything but I sure, would like to see that thanks guys.

899
01:37:35.550 --> 01:37:40.500
jim murez: it's from Sean i'm so now we're on to old business and.

900
01:37:41.880 --> 01:37:51.180
jim murez: We need somebody to make the motion somebody else to seconded and then we can start discuss the the item, this has to do with a boundary adjustment for the dnc and the.

901
01:37:53.040 --> 01:37:59.700
jim murez: del rey neighborhood Council border, and I believe we have a representative here from del rey if we.

902
01:37:59.910 --> 01:38:00.780
robert thibodeau: have questions.

903
01:38:00.930 --> 01:38:02.250
jim murez: Could somebody make a motion.

904
01:38:03.210 --> 01:38:04.470
Vicki Halliday: To make the motion.

905
01:38:05.010 --> 01:38:05.520
jim murez: It was a.

906
01:38:06.060 --> 01:38:07.620
jim murez: vicki Oh, thank you vicki.

907
01:38:10.980 --> 01:38:11.370
jim murez: And we.

908
01:38:12.720 --> 01:38:13.560
jim murez: Thank you NICO.

909
01:38:15.630 --> 01:38:18.210
jim murez: And where's nico's name.

910
01:38:20.040 --> 01:38:21.360
Oh, there you are.

911
01:38:22.980 --> 01:38:24.210
jim murez: Okay let's um.

912
01:38:26.190 --> 01:38:39.870
jim murez: let's let's see do we want to, so let me just explain that at the last board meeting the discussion was that the language needed to be the same as as.

913
01:38:40.500 --> 01:38:54.510
jim murez: del rey's and after discussion with with Freddie and done it's clear that our language is not identical to theirs, but it has to reference, the same boundary points and so what's been crossed out.

914
01:38:55.200 --> 01:39:11.610
jim murez: In yellow on the screen is the change that we would be making if we adopt the boundary adjustment basically instead of going down delray avenue south to Max sela and then west to Lincoln we would just be going.

915
01:39:13.110 --> 01:39:15.030
jim murez: West on Lincoln.

916
01:39:16.200 --> 01:39:26.820
jim murez: From where it walnut comes to Washington, so we would be taking out that section Now let me just quickly see if I can open this picture.

917
01:39:28.140 --> 01:39:31.620
jim murez: And everybody can see the areas so it's this area in blue.

918
01:39:32.430 --> 01:39:49.890
jim murez: And the new boundary would follow the dotted line coming where my magnifying glasses right now it'd be coming down this line here coming out to the Center point here in Washington coming down all the way down to where Marina del rey starts, which is on the South much farther south.

919
01:39:51.630 --> 01:39:53.070
jim murez: That being said.

920
01:39:54.300 --> 01:40:03.240
jim murez: A point out that that Venice neighborhood Council would still retain the three corners, that would be the two to the West, in the end, the one on the East, North side.

921
01:40:03.720 --> 01:40:10.170
jim murez: So the intersection would still have three corners of the Venice neighborhood Council one corner would then become in delray.

922
01:40:12.780 --> 01:40:16.290
jim murez: let's go ahead and take public comment no daffodil if we have any.

923
01:40:17.100 --> 01:40:17.670
or.

924
01:40:19.110 --> 01:40:24.390
Daffodil Tyminski: So we see the motion on the table we've got some folks in the audience um.

925
01:40:26.730 --> 01:40:31.650
Daffodil Tyminski: and hold on I accidentally kicked Melissa off the zoom sorry about that she's coming back in.

926
01:40:34.470 --> 01:40:36.570
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay Helen fallon go ahead first.

927
01:40:39.900 --> 01:40:45.600
Helen Fallon: I hope that all of the board members time to review, I letter which went into detail on what the.

928
01:40:46.140 --> 01:40:56.910
Helen Fallon: del rey Community plan for closes I disagree with Jim Moran that we would have control over the intersection of Lincoln and Washington, because they make it very clear that's one of the reasons why they want.

929
01:40:57.330 --> 01:41:05.160
Helen Fallon: To have control over this property, no one has consulted the property owners along that area is is either interested in being part of del rey.

930
01:41:05.640 --> 01:41:17.940
Helen Fallon: And I went to the del rey board meeting the comments were they were voting because this isn't the best interest of del rey they thought, nobody even knew that property area belongs to.

931
01:41:18.900 --> 01:41:28.890
Helen Fallon: Venice and they are literally you know they're asking for control over that portion of Lincoln boulevard and that's really The focus here the midline on Lincoln boulevard.

932
01:41:29.370 --> 01:41:42.300
Helen Fallon: Anything that happens on that East side is going to affect our fellow Venetians, on the other side, I think you should go know for this there's no reason for it they've been working on it for three years and they have a courtesy to talk to us about it.

933
01:41:43.530 --> 01:41:44.130
Thank you.

934
01:41:47.340 --> 01:41:48.060
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Helen.

935
01:41:49.920 --> 01:41:53.100
Daffodil Tyminski: Liz right go ahead, I actually you can just go ahead.

936
01:41:57.990 --> 01:42:17.220
Elizabeth Wright: First, thank you Helen for doing that research, it turns out that that plan that del rey has has been in place since 2018 and it was presented to us as you've got to hurry up and get this past because this is very important to get it done by April 1.

937
01:42:18.480 --> 01:42:26.190
Elizabeth Wright: That plan does include the Lincoln Washington intersection not just one fourth of it, it also includes.

938
01:42:27.930 --> 01:42:41.880
Elizabeth Wright: All of the del rey area that exist today, no one in Venice was notified by either the Venice neighborhood Council or the deal right neighborhood Council that this was desired.

939
01:42:43.230 --> 01:43:01.470
Elizabeth Wright: As far as I know, there is at least one person in the Lincoln area on Lincoln boulevard who has a business there, who was not notified This seems to be just your board and my Board will get together and we'll do this stuff not good let's postpone it.

940
01:43:06.120 --> 01:43:06.960
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Liz.

941
01:43:08.010 --> 01:43:13.260
Daffodil Tyminski: And next we have Margaret Margaret more like go ahead.

942
01:43:14.280 --> 01:43:27.540
Margaret Molloy: I would align myself with those two comments, not noticing people have a change that is a substantial change to their personal interests and community is crazy and it completely contradicts.

943
01:43:28.620 --> 01:43:42.060
Margaret Molloy: very strong emotions have some people on this board about the zoning realignment and the no notification of property owners, historically, so you know, please try to be consistent and.

944
01:43:43.500 --> 01:43:45.960
Margaret Molloy: what's the benefit for Venice residence.

945
01:43:48.480 --> 01:43:56.460
Margaret Molloy: that's a fundamental issue, how does this bit motion benefit Venice residence you haven't explained that, please explain that Thank you.

946
01:43:59.550 --> 01:44:02.370
Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you, Margaret and I believe.

947
01:44:04.410 --> 01:44:08.490
Daffodil Tyminski: With that Erica i'm so sorry go ahead if I didn't call you.

948
01:44:09.960 --> 01:44:28.920
Erica Moore: hi yeah do you hear me okay yeah absolutely completely in alignment with all three callers absolutely not we have got to stop letting people just do what they want, with them, we are the people event is this is important that we keep that that area for us, thank you.

949
01:44:30.840 --> 01:44:36.300
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Erica and Jim seeing know for their hands, I suggest we close public comment.

950
01:44:37.290 --> 01:44:48.120
jim murez: Okay, thank you um let's close public comment and let's go back to the board now do we have any hands, I see Clarks hand is up, followed by Jim rob go ahead Clark.

951
01:44:49.110 --> 01:44:53.880
clark brown: Last month I asked whether the properties businesses on.

952
01:44:53.970 --> 01:44:55.230
clark brown: East side of Lincoln.

953
01:44:55.320 --> 01:45:03.060
clark brown: between Mexico and Washington had Lincoln boulevard addresses does anybody know the the answer to that question.

954
01:45:06.270 --> 01:45:20.010
clark brown: Okay driving down Lincoln boulevard it appeared to me that they all have Lincoln boulevard addresses rather than delray addresses Lincoln is the main drag through its Main Street through through Venice.

955
01:45:21.030 --> 01:45:38.010
clark brown: Except for this one section between Mexico and Washington, both sides of Lincoln boulevard all way up to the Santa Monica wine have addresses that are you know Lincoln boulevard addresses I don't see the reason to.

956
01:45:39.030 --> 01:45:46.650
clark brown: put this one section in delray, especially since all the businesses have Lincoln boulevard addresses, which is.

957
01:45:49.020 --> 01:45:50.250
clark brown: In the Venice neighborhood Council.

958
01:45:51.750 --> 01:45:54.060
jim murez: Okay, thank you Clark Jim go ahead.

959
01:45:56.460 --> 01:46:07.350
Jim Robb: To me it seems like it's going to be cause more problems to to every to every street besides Lincoln boulevard here, including your street on Main Street cutting down lanes.

960
01:46:08.730 --> 01:46:10.380
Jim Robb: Mike bonus, you know.

961
01:46:11.550 --> 01:46:17.430
Jim Robb: Slow speed takeout lanes for buses and bikes I think it's a horrible idea.

962
01:46:18.060 --> 01:46:27.330
Jim Robb: And I think you know, we need to keep it in Venice and keep the the the height restrictions down on any of the buildings there that we can, and you know.

963
01:46:28.020 --> 01:46:43.800
Jim Robb: I don't wanna I don't want to road diet like Venice boulevard in mar vista i'd rather keep it in Venice, and I agree with cart though the lines Venice, all the way down so you know that's that's my that's my point, thank you.

964
01:46:43.830 --> 01:46:45.450
jim murez: Thank you, Jim Robert go ahead.

965
01:46:49.410 --> 01:47:02.760
robert thibodeau: I think there's kind of a so I spoke kind of like all everybody else last time and raise the word flag and defend the borders and stuff like that.

966
01:47:04.290 --> 01:47:08.070
robert thibodeau: But since then, I spoke to the del rey guys.

967
01:47:10.260 --> 01:47:15.480
robert thibodeau: at their request, about what the nature of this was and then I also spoke.

968
01:47:17.730 --> 01:47:18.390
To talk to.

969
01:47:19.800 --> 01:47:20.520
robert thibodeau: I can't remember.

970
01:47:21.660 --> 01:47:29.280
robert thibodeau: So the deal, the deal isn't that they're trying to take Venice well, which is kind of what I thought it was last time.

971
01:47:29.880 --> 01:47:44.550
robert thibodeau: To address like you know Helen and other people who spoke before the those property addresses on that side of Lincoln so i'm talking about you know where del taco used to be in all those.

972
01:47:46.410 --> 01:47:54.300
robert thibodeau: Businesses those are already in the del rey specific plan so they're they're actually not part of our specific plan area.

973
01:47:55.440 --> 01:48:03.750
robert thibodeau: And the problem is right now it's so the what why this isn't alignment is because, if one was to do.

974
01:48:04.410 --> 01:48:17.910
robert thibodeau: A project say you know where the goodwill drop off had been that's vacant now right and somebody wants to do a change abuse or or something new, or something old or whatever the heck they want to do.

975
01:48:20.160 --> 01:48:39.510
robert thibodeau: it's under the del rey specific plan those properties, but there for some reason, under the Venice neighborhood Council, so it leaves you in sort of a dilemma of does the Venice neighborhood Council have a responsibility to hear projects that are under the del rey specific plan.

976
01:48:41.220 --> 01:48:44.880
robert thibodeau: Or do those properties along that strip.

977
01:48:46.170 --> 01:48:55.770
robert thibodeau: Who who becomes responsible for the land use on those I suppose so i'm not telling people how to vote, but you know that's an obvious misalignment.

978
01:48:57.390 --> 01:48:58.050
robert thibodeau: Of.

979
01:48:59.280 --> 01:49:02.010
robert thibodeau: Of sort of plans versus.

980
01:49:03.300 --> 01:49:17.880
robert thibodeau: there's a misalignment there, and that was probably just done by accident when they were dividing up the neighborhood Councils versus writing the specific plans, I suppose one could take the position of the opposite was that.

981
01:49:19.350 --> 01:49:19.980
robert thibodeau: We should.

982
01:49:21.000 --> 01:49:30.120
robert thibodeau: rewrite our specific plan to include those properties, but that hasn't been proposed, right now, the Venice specific plant only starts west of.

983
01:49:30.720 --> 01:49:38.100
robert thibodeau: Lincoln so in the what is that the Oxford triangle and then the associated businesses on Lincoln.

984
01:49:38.730 --> 01:49:47.100
robert thibodeau: that are on the West side of Lincoln are part of the Venice specific plan and fall into the Venice Pacific plan, but on the east side they fall under the del rey specific plan.

985
01:49:47.460 --> 01:49:55.890
robert thibodeau: So there is there is an issue and we should think about it in those terms, not just kind of you know what.

986
01:49:56.880 --> 01:50:08.580
robert thibodeau: I think everybody's gotten emotional about this and I did too so i'm guilty, but um I think there's a practical component to this also that needs to be weighed i'm just gonna leave it at that, thanks.

987
01:50:09.030 --> 01:50:11.310
jim murez: Thank you, Robert i'm definitely you have your hand up.

988
01:50:12.660 --> 01:50:20.130
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah so um I had virtually I was completely agnostic on this issue, I had always assumed, it was part of del rey.

989
01:50:20.580 --> 01:50:24.480
Daffodil Tyminski: I know a couple of the business owners along there I think they thought they were in del rey.

990
01:50:25.200 --> 01:50:36.330
Daffodil Tyminski: And then, when this controversy arose and I think the first time I learned about the strip being off of del rey was one DEMO had sought to re up their liquor license.

991
01:50:36.900 --> 01:50:42.390
Daffodil Tyminski: And I think when they went through that process, they were too surprised to find out that they were part of Venice.

992
01:50:43.260 --> 01:51:02.670
Daffodil Tyminski: So, to me, I I don't think that this is that big of a deal i've heard a lot of kind of conspiracy theory about you know all kinds of insinuations that there's some cabal of developers that want to take over this plot of Lincoln or take over the corner or whatever i've never seen that.

993
01:51:04.050 --> 01:51:12.810
Daffodil Tyminski: I think this was actually brought to the last Council, and it was not agenda, I don't know why, but it does seem as though someone tried to bring it.

994
01:51:14.730 --> 01:51:26.640
Daffodil Tyminski: I personally don't think this is that big of a deal, but I totally get how folks in the Community have a real problem with this, I would actually suggest that we table this.

995
01:51:26.640 --> 01:51:26.940
robert thibodeau: For them.

996
01:51:27.840 --> 01:51:35.040
Daffodil Tyminski: and bring it back when we're dealing with the other bylaws changes because the other thing that I will notice about this motion.

997
01:51:35.520 --> 01:51:42.630
Daffodil Tyminski: Is that it doesn't say that we're moving to amend the bylaws it says that we're moving to amend the dnc boundary.

998
01:51:43.470 --> 01:51:57.090
Daffodil Tyminski: And so to me, as a matter of just parliamentary procedure, this may be a little bit off as emotion and perhaps we just put this and fold this in with the overall meeting we're having on the bylaws and.

999
01:51:58.200 --> 01:52:02.190
Daffodil Tyminski: You know, decide in the greater context of everything we're changing whether this makes sense.

1000
01:52:03.570 --> 01:52:09.570
jim murez: Thank you debbie oh so yeah just to respond to the part about the motion because it was was on the last board meeting.

1001
01:52:10.290 --> 01:52:24.990
jim murez: We put it back on this board meeting we talked about it in add calm, it was the responsibility to get it back on this board meeting and to approve it or disapprove it based on the writing that was there, the last time so.

1002
01:52:25.320 --> 01:52:33.510
jim murez: Right, because if we could get through it tonight, then it will be that much less to do when we meet for just the entire bios if we if it.

1003
01:52:33.960 --> 01:52:34.980
robert thibodeau: was all night.

1004
01:52:35.280 --> 01:52:39.120
jim murez: It would push it forward to the bylaws.

1005
01:52:39.180 --> 01:52:49.470
jim murez: Meeting to then be adopted into the bylaws changes this, this in itself would not change the bylaws we still have to adapt the bylaws.

1006
01:52:50.520 --> 01:53:01.410
Daffodil Tyminski: So, just to clarify for everyone is the intent of this motion and I I was at those meetings, so perhaps I should know this, but I just feel like in the moment I don't is the intention of this motion to just.

1007
01:53:02.070 --> 01:53:07.800
Daffodil Tyminski: Take sort of the temperature of the dnc as to whether we want this to be considered as part of the bylaw change.

1008
01:53:08.220 --> 01:53:08.970
jim murez: Well, if we.

1009
01:53:09.150 --> 01:53:19.260
jim murez: Were yeah if we approve this tonight, then it would go our district if we disapprove it if it if that's the end of it we don't take it up again in the bylaws meeting.

1010
01:53:19.800 --> 01:53:31.440
jim murez: If we approve it tonight, then we put it into the bylaws for the bylaws meeting because that's how it started it started by coming to the board originally as just one item for the bylaws.

1011
01:53:31.680 --> 01:53:35.970
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, well, I think that that's definitely worth worthwhile conversation.

1012
01:53:36.600 --> 01:53:46.050
jim murez: Thank you okay um there's a few more hands Ivan I see your hand and i'm going to hold off on let the committee people speak first soledad go ahead, please.

1013
01:53:46.500 --> 01:53:52.860
soledad ursua: hi so I have a question for you it's my understanding that property owners on both sides of the street.

1014
01:53:53.340 --> 01:54:05.970
soledad ursua: That they share the you know, basically, the street area across from each other, so I would think that it would be advantageous for the property owners to either be fully in one district or exciting one Council district or the.

1015
01:54:06.330 --> 01:54:18.390
soledad ursua: Fire one and either del rey or the dnc so I I just don't see the use of splitting it up this way we're half dozen the other, and I still don't see the benefit to Venice residents so.

1016
01:54:18.990 --> 01:54:29.670
soledad ursua: I just Can you clarify that that don't residents, they need the permission of the property owner, on the other side of the street for changes for parking.

1017
01:54:29.730 --> 01:54:39.780
jim murez: So i'm not sure which side you're talking about it del rey is already the opposite side, so the light blue that's on the screen right now that's already the del rey.

1018
01:54:40.680 --> 01:54:48.060
jim murez: neighborhood Council so if you're talking about the opposite side of Lincoln that would be Venice and we do have a specific plan.

1019
01:54:48.420 --> 01:55:03.810
jim murez: And a coastal land use plan for the West side the part you can't see the part that's under the black part of the screen that's actually controlled by the Venice specific plan, and also by the coastal commission's land use plan, but the blue stretch.

1020
01:55:05.010 --> 01:55:18.720
jim murez: is controlled by the municipal code, which means that it's you know we don't have anything specific but it's also under the control of the del rey specific plan is what Robert explained.

1021
01:55:20.940 --> 01:55:28.950
jim murez: So if somebody wanted to get a permit, they would have to both comply to the del rey specific plan and then also come before the Venice neighborhood Council.

1022
01:55:29.550 --> 01:55:33.840
jim murez: For approval or disapproval, and we would then have to understand.

1023
01:55:34.350 --> 01:55:49.530
jim murez: What are the requirements of the del rey specific plan to be able to take a position on it so wouldn't conflict with the outstanding laws that exist on the books that are in addition to that of the municipal code.

1024
01:55:50.340 --> 01:55:58.830
jim murez: It puts us sort of in a strange places Robert explain but let's let's get some more comments Sema you have your hand up, so let me you done you stop your hand up.

1025
01:55:59.520 --> 01:56:00.090
soledad ursua: And then.

1026
01:56:00.300 --> 01:56:01.440
jim murez: Okay, thank you.

1027
01:56:03.210 --> 01:56:19.950
Sima Kostovetsky: I had a question, maybe for someone that knows land use a lot better than me to robert's point, how does this affect us and do exactly do we have a responsibility to look at the del rey projects now and.

1028
01:56:21.030 --> 01:56:38.490
Sima Kostovetsky: so forth, I just would like clarification on like is the solution, because all we're hearing, not all but what we're hearing is that there's a conflict and the area is not a conflict, but the areas divided So how do we solve that is their solution.

1029
01:56:39.240 --> 01:56:53.130
jim murez: So let's call on mikael because he's our lead us chair, he has his hand up and maybe he would like to comment on the issue of having to learn the del rey specific plan to be able to address projects that want to exist there properly.

1030
01:56:55.020 --> 01:57:03.180
Michael Jensen: Thanks Jim, so this is a sort of my first impression of it um because I, you know i'm i'm i'm new, and this is not something.

1031
01:57:04.590 --> 01:57:17.310
Michael Jensen: I really well, I think I understand it, but I would say, first, I don't think it's crazy for our land use committee to be able to look at objective standards of.

1032
01:57:18.030 --> 01:57:31.260
Michael Jensen: A neighboring community and and apply it, although I would say that we don't do that regularly but it's not you know that's not unheard of, to be able to take standards apply them to a project and weigh in on whether or not you support it.

1033
01:57:33.180 --> 01:57:46.380
Michael Jensen: But it strikes me that this is something that should get cleaned up with the Community plan updates and so that has been something that has sort of died in the dnc or in the in.

1034
01:57:47.400 --> 01:57:48.390
Michael Jensen: The land use committee.

1035
01:57:49.560 --> 01:57:52.500
Michael Jensen: And i'd like to breathe some life into it so.

1036
01:57:53.790 --> 01:58:03.780
Michael Jensen: I think this is the kind of thing I would like to address and whatever the committee recommendations and, that being for the land community by an update.

1037
01:58:05.130 --> 01:58:07.560
Michael Jensen: I feel like that makes more sense than.

1038
01:58:08.970 --> 01:58:18.150
Michael Jensen: Trying to rush this for our bylaws amendment that then ultimately is going to get potentially undone or not by the city's Community point update.

1039
01:58:19.350 --> 01:58:22.620
Michael Jensen: Because this would seem like the kind of thing that they should correct in that.

1040
01:58:23.880 --> 01:58:27.150
Michael Jensen: Maybe i'm missing something This is like I said, the first time i'm looking at it.

1041
01:58:29.340 --> 01:58:35.490
Michael Jensen: But is there some I understand the bylaws have to be amended by April 1 and there is a.

1042
01:58:36.750 --> 01:58:39.360
Michael Jensen: necessarily a connection between this.

1043
01:58:40.950 --> 01:58:47.430
Michael Jensen: The asking this and the amendment to the bylaws but is that the only reason, this is being rushed.

1044
01:58:48.660 --> 01:58:55.170
jim murez: Yes, it's not it's not going to claim that it's being rushed it's the only reason that it's on tonight's agenda.

1045
01:58:56.190 --> 01:58:57.000
Michael Jensen: i'm not sorry.

1046
01:58:57.120 --> 01:59:05.130
Michael Jensen: That not that it's being rushed, but that there is an impending deadline I just feel like the status quo worked for God knows how long right and.

1047
01:59:08.160 --> 01:59:18.690
Michael Jensen: You know what's the harm and I don't know when the city is going to finally release this thing but what's the what's the harm in waiting until there's actually a comprehensive change to this.

1048
01:59:19.260 --> 01:59:26.490
jim murez: Well, the, the only the only the I think the point that you need to understand is the bylaws are only revised during the.

1049
01:59:26.910 --> 01:59:43.650
jim murez: first year of each term, so the next time it will come around is basically in a year and a half from now it'll come up again that again the bylaws will be able to be revised and then in two years from now, that would actually be able to be adopted.

1050
01:59:44.190 --> 01:59:48.360
Michael Jensen: Who who or who's the project proponent for this or the movement.

1051
01:59:50.100 --> 01:59:58.500
jim murez: who brought this before us the del rey the the the del rey neighborhood association and their Vice President is here tonight, if we have questions.

1052
01:59:58.620 --> 02:00:04.980
Michael Jensen: So, I guess, I would just wonder about like okay what's the outreach to the property owners, the tenants.

1053
02:00:06.090 --> 02:00:12.510
Michael Jensen: Putting them on notice that this change is going to happen because I would look at this through the lens of like any other kind of land use change and.

1054
02:00:14.910 --> 02:00:15.780
Michael Jensen: Have a.

1055
02:00:17.010 --> 02:00:23.040
Michael Jensen: Do the owners know that this has happened, and I guess, if you want to invite the Vice President on IP.

1056
02:00:23.700 --> 02:00:23.940
Okay.

1057
02:00:24.990 --> 02:00:27.900
Erica Moore: So do we need more stuff for that, oh no, I think.

1058
02:00:28.230 --> 02:00:32.100
jim murez: I don't know we're getting voices in the background daffodil can you remove those people from the meeting.

1059
02:00:33.150 --> 02:00:33.510
Daffodil Tyminski: Yes.

1060
02:00:34.410 --> 02:00:36.420
jim murez: Thank you Andre go ahead, please.

1061
02:00:37.800 --> 02:00:39.510
Andrea Boccaletti: yeah just.

1062
02:00:40.560 --> 02:00:47.850
Andrea Boccaletti: You know, rather, to jim's comma before rather than putting us in a strange place that it's in the delray specific plan and.

1063
02:00:48.960 --> 02:00:57.240
Andrea Boccaletti: I don't want to put our residents in a strange place, I mean Look, we have one side that's under the Venice specific plan and neighborhood Council.

1064
02:00:57.930 --> 02:01:07.530
Andrea Boccaletti: We should also be responsible for the other side, the way that it is now so that's screwed by the city I don't want to change it that's why i'm going to be voting.

1065
02:01:09.540 --> 02:01:11.520
Andrea Boccaletti: No on this right thanks.

1066
02:01:12.000 --> 02:01:14.940
jim murez: Okay, do we have any more comments from any more board members.

1067
02:01:17.190 --> 02:01:18.780
Daffodil Tyminski: um we.

1068
02:01:19.260 --> 02:01:29.970
Daffodil Tyminski: Have Ivan is not a board member, but I think wanted to probably what should we do we have Clark brown Jim rob and I think i've been probably wanted to weigh in on the mechanics for changes to the bylaws.

1069
02:01:29.970 --> 02:01:36.960
jim murez: Because in Clark, we already heard from you in it mean uh you know I don't want to keep going around and round in circles Jim you had something you wanted to say.

1070
02:01:37.800 --> 02:01:42.420
Jim Robb: yeah my question is for the let's say Lincoln north.

1071
02:01:43.830 --> 02:01:51.780
Jim Robb: kind of where that jeep repair and all that stuff what what that falls under us it is that that's still part of the vendors Community plan correct.

1072
02:01:52.290 --> 02:01:53.250
Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, yeah.

1073
02:01:54.600 --> 02:01:59.010
Jim Robb: Okay, so with this this go all the way down or how would this change.

1074
02:01:59.730 --> 02:02:03.450
Daffodil Tyminski: Wait block from Lincoln from Washington Lincoln to Max.

1075
02:02:03.450 --> 02:02:05.340
Daffodil Tyminski: ella and Lincoln right.

1076
02:02:05.850 --> 02:02:12.630
Jim Robb: But that that would be different than what we have from from Lincoln each of Venice.

1077
02:02:14.580 --> 02:02:25.890
Daffodil Tyminski: Well, on that particular corner that whole part East is del rey across the street you've got one property that's Lincoln so you know there's that T mobile at the corner of what yeah so.

1078
02:02:27.030 --> 02:02:27.510
Daffodil Tyminski: I can't.

1079
02:02:27.990 --> 02:02:29.100
Jim Robb: Is that that's Venice.

1080
02:02:30.420 --> 02:02:34.800
Daffodil Tyminski: Venice for just that one block and then it goes into culver city where costco stars.

1081
02:02:36.000 --> 02:02:51.930
Daffodil Tyminski: Right so where the dark blue is that is currently Venice, the rest of the light blue shading is del rey across the way that same block is Venice right so it's between the small street I think there it's.

1082
02:02:52.230 --> 02:02:54.210
jim murez: up here at the top that's yeah yeah.

1083
02:02:54.690 --> 02:02:59.610
Daffodil Tyminski: And then the rest of it starts culver city, so it is this little finger that kind of sticks out.

1084
02:03:01.050 --> 02:03:01.140
Daffodil Tyminski: The.

1085
02:03:01.380 --> 02:03:05.610
Jim Robb: Worst we're still Venice North the north of Washington.

1086
02:03:05.820 --> 02:03:08.280
Jim Robb: But we're trying to change it tomorrow vista south of.

1087
02:03:08.280 --> 02:03:08.820
Washington.

1088
02:03:10.110 --> 02:03:14.130
jim murez: To do it still Venice Washington and they want to consolidate it with.

1089
02:03:14.130 --> 02:03:15.690
Daffodil Tyminski: del rey south of Washington.

1090
02:03:15.990 --> 02:03:17.100
Jim Robb: copy, that is.

1091
02:03:17.160 --> 02:03:18.840
Daffodil Tyminski: The light blue is already del rey.

1092
02:03:20.610 --> 02:03:22.470
jim murez: Okay vicki go ahead, you have your hand up.

1093
02:03:24.870 --> 02:03:27.270
Vicki Halliday: Thank you a simple question.

1094
02:03:28.440 --> 02:03:32.850
Vicki Halliday: What isn't businesses best best interest on this.

1095
02:03:35.190 --> 02:03:35.940
Vicki Halliday: I mean.

1096
02:03:36.780 --> 02:03:43.740
Vicki Halliday: Do we keep it do we let it go there's got to be one side or the other works better for us.

1097
02:03:46.380 --> 02:03:49.260
Vicki Halliday: And this is all very convoluted and.

1098
02:03:51.900 --> 02:03:57.540
Vicki Halliday: You know it, I understand both sides of it, but once in our best and best interest.

1099
02:03:59.880 --> 02:04:03.390
jim murez: I think that's for each of us to figure out like here you vicki Thank you.

1100
02:04:04.770 --> 02:04:05.910
jim murez: I don't have an answer for you.

1101
02:04:08.490 --> 02:04:11.160
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm a gym cj also has her hand up.

1102
02:04:11.220 --> 02:04:13.350
jim murez: yeah I see that cj go ahead.

1103
02:04:14.820 --> 02:04:34.350
CJ Cole: hey now, the one thing that I was concerned about in our meetings that I have sustained um and I think I will vote against it tonight um is that I honestly don't like what happened on that side of Lincoln boulevard going South from excellent.

1104
02:04:35.940 --> 02:04:40.740
CJ Cole: And i'm honored and a kind of edge that when I asked them in the meeting.

1105
02:04:41.160 --> 02:04:50.940
CJ Cole: um I asked the guy whoever it is kinda educative is, if you know, nobody really right now was proposing anything but I got the feeling that they have in the past.

1106
02:04:51.240 --> 02:04:59.820
CJ Cole: And I just really think that it does have a lot to do with Lincoln boulevard looked of Lincoln boulevard.

1107
02:05:00.210 --> 02:05:17.430
CJ Cole: and whatever what people across the street from each other and I just think we just haven't had enough time to to discuss this and and look at the ramifications, it certainly isn't hurting it to stay the way it is, but it couldn't hurt us if it got changed.

1108
02:05:19.950 --> 02:05:21.390
jim murez: Okay, thank you cj um.

1109
02:05:22.530 --> 02:05:26.520
jim murez: Any other board members have a comment at this point that they would like to make.

1110
02:05:27.990 --> 02:05:31.290
Michael Jensen: Now, Jim are you going to bring the del rey VP on to talk about this.

1111
02:05:31.410 --> 02:05:36.630
jim murez: We can, if you'd like yeah definitely do you want to do you have his name there.

1112
02:05:37.380 --> 02:05:41.400
jim murez: um you know who he is I can find him, let me, let me stop sharing my screen.

1113
02:05:41.400 --> 02:05:41.640
jim murez: First.

1114
02:05:41.670 --> 02:05:45.390
Daffodil Tyminski: I think he just used to raise his hand and then we can yeah.

1115
02:05:46.410 --> 02:05:47.280
jim murez: He has a.

1116
02:05:48.960 --> 02:05:50.130
jim murez: There, yes, you see him.

1117
02:05:51.870 --> 02:05:52.260
jim murez: Robbie.

1118
02:05:52.440 --> 02:05:53.490
Daffodil Tyminski: Robbie okay.

1119
02:05:56.310 --> 02:05:57.090
jim murez: Are you promoting him.

1120
02:05:57.330 --> 02:06:03.540
Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, go ahead ravi sorry we I didn't know who you are because we email one another and I apologize for not remember your name.

1121
02:06:09.570 --> 02:06:10.530
Ravi Sankaran: Everyone can hear me.

1122
02:06:10.710 --> 02:06:13.500
jim murez: Yes, yeah, thank you for coming tonight.

1123
02:06:14.310 --> 02:06:22.440
Ravi Sankaran: yeah yeah thanks for your time thanks for considering this real appreciate it, and also for the people, giving some time to kind of talk about it and to have the block area with us.

1124
02:06:22.890 --> 02:06:28.260
Ravi Sankaran: So I mean tell us this is kind of a cleanup change as Robert pointed out, you know we don't have many areas.

1125
02:06:28.620 --> 02:06:33.720
Ravi Sankaran: I don't know if we have any areas in a city where you have a specific plan that crosses the neighborhood Council boundary.

1126
02:06:34.290 --> 02:06:41.310
Ravi Sankaran: And we've even done some service sitting for this area, we put in a sidewalk in front of the starbucks we've dealt with some traffic flow issues.

1127
02:06:41.610 --> 02:06:48.300
Ravi Sankaran: So, for us, this is really just kind of a cleanup issue we don't have any brand development plans or anything like that, and so.

1128
02:06:48.990 --> 02:06:56.430
Ravi Sankaran: And it's also to be in Canada it's not a huge deal to us it's really just because we don't really see any place in the city where you have.

1129
02:06:56.820 --> 02:07:02.340
Ravi Sankaran: A specific plan across the neighborhood Council boundaries and so it's cleaner to have it in one neighborhood Council.

1130
02:07:02.970 --> 02:07:10.500
Ravi Sankaran: And so, and we have intending to some of the matter is some of the you know track street of shoes sidewalk issues for these residents and the businesses there.

1131
02:07:10.920 --> 02:07:14.130
Ravi Sankaran: And so you know, have we talked to every single one of them, you don't know we haven't.

1132
02:07:14.550 --> 02:07:21.750
Ravi Sankaran: But the ones we do know they believe that they're in delray and people generally look at Lincoln east of it south of Washington is in delray.

1133
02:07:22.110 --> 02:07:31.320
Ravi Sankaran: And you know west of Lincoln North Washington is in Venice when you go further south and XL and then it basically everything east of Lincoln is in delray.

1134
02:07:31.980 --> 02:07:44.430
Ravi Sankaran: And so, so for us this just basically cleans up the boundary just the boundary discrepancy with a specific plan and that's it I frankly, if this failed at your board we wouldn't be losing sleep over it.

1135
02:07:45.660 --> 02:07:49.890
Ravi Sankaran: So it's really not an emotional thing for us so just letting into that.

1136
02:07:50.700 --> 02:07:57.870
Michael Jensen: Robbie is there is there any reason that we can't work on this in terms of I imagine you guys are doing Community fight update stuff in your neighborhood Council.

1137
02:07:58.860 --> 02:08:00.660
Ravi Sankaran: yeah yeah that's that's kind of ongoing.

1138
02:08:02.040 --> 02:08:05.730
Michael Jensen: But is there any way we any reason why we can't just work on this.

1139
02:08:08.670 --> 02:08:11.070
Michael Jensen: jointly in that process.

1140
02:08:12.150 --> 02:08:13.320
Ravi Sankaran: yeah I mean sort of what.

1141
02:08:13.410 --> 02:08:14.640
Michael Jensen: Like the status quo live.

1142
02:08:15.780 --> 02:08:26.850
Ravi Sankaran: Right yeah I guess the thing is the specific plan still trump's the Community plan in terms of the boundaries, and so, so that, because that part you know is.

1143
02:08:28.020 --> 02:08:34.410
Ravi Sankaran: I guess still the I guess the ruling boundary this would just be a way to make it consistent so that's all.

1144
02:08:35.070 --> 02:08:41.880
Ravi Sankaran: know we would definitely be collaborating on all the Lincoln issues like the Lincoln fast forward project that we wrote a letter of support for Lincoln fast forward.

1145
02:08:42.210 --> 02:08:48.540
Ravi Sankaran: And I think we talked about when your board members about that, and so you know we'd be in those discussions and collaborating with you on those things anyway.

1146
02:08:48.900 --> 02:09:02.670
Ravi Sankaran: And like I said once he goes South and XL, then the Lincoln it becomes an essential Lincoln is all del rey anyway so it's just a weird jagat boundary line, if you look at it, we it goes, you know down just zigzags a little bit.

1147
02:09:07.290 --> 02:09:09.030
jim murez: Okay, thank you, thank you both.

1148
02:09:09.360 --> 02:09:09.780
Daffodil Tyminski: for having.

1149
02:09:09.810 --> 02:09:15.270
jim murez: um I do see that Melissa has her hand up Melissa did you have something you wanted to say to this item.

1150
02:09:18.600 --> 02:09:23.310
jim murez: let's see your hand is up i'm calling on you, if you can hear me go ahead, I just.

1151
02:09:23.430 --> 02:09:29.310
melissa diner : The only thing i'm going to say is the same thing I said before, and I think we asked Friday about this and sort of by.

1152
02:09:30.150 --> 02:09:47.460
melissa diner : An answer that we could do this if I remember correctly, but like I don't care if they can vote in both places that's a solution to this, I don't know if anyone else has a problem i'm not going to like make that motion, but it unless someone else feels strongly about it but that's.

1153
02:09:49.530 --> 02:09:57.360
jim murez: Okay, thank you i'm having heard from everyone now let's go back and take a vote on this.

1154
02:09:58.890 --> 02:10:07.500
jim murez: i'm re sharing my screen, let me go back let's close that one okay So here we are let's go Hello Ivan you have your hand up you wanted to say something.

02:10:27.090 --> 02:10:30.540
Ivan: i'm, the only way to train.

1160
02:10:31.650 --> 02:10:36.300
Ivan: A neighborhood Council boundaries is by amending their bylaws.

1161
02:10:38.070 --> 02:10:44.730
Ivan: there's nothing in this motion about doing that you start commanding the boundary it doesn't say amend the bylaws.

1162
02:10:45.900 --> 02:10:52.200
Ivan: So this is not a legal motion, you can vote for it, if you want, but it's not going to change.

1163
02:10:52.200 --> 02:10:53.940
Michael Jensen: anytime and I think daffodil are you made.

Ivan: i'm getting there.

1170
02:11:06.120 --> 02:11:10.530

1171
02:11:15.180 --> 02:11:15.690
Ivan: alright.

1172
02:11:16.980 --> 02:11:17.490
Ivan: So.

1174
02:11:31.170 --> 02:11:41.400
Ivan: This motion worded properly, which is, it should be amended by amending the bylaws you are going to have that opportunity.

1175
02:11:43.110 --> 02:11:48.930
Ivan: And the recommendation of the committee at that point was to go ahead and accept this.

1176
02:11:50.610 --> 02:12:05.250
Ivan: i'm suggesting some people did already that you postpone this decision because you're just going to have to go back and do it again this motion waves written does absolutely nothing and bank will not accept it.

1177
02:12:06.840 --> 02:12:07.350
Ivan: i'm done.

1178

jim murez: And let's lower your hand to.

1181
02:12:17.730 --> 02:12:18.300
jim murez: Death adele.

1182
02:12:19.440 --> 02:12:21.060
jim murez: Did you want to speak again, you had your hand up.

1183
02:12:21.690 --> 02:12:25.710
Daffodil Tyminski: You just because I think ivan's comment raises the question of.

1184
02:12:27.690 --> 02:12:36.450
Daffodil Tyminski: The way we had discussed it earlier was that if we vote this down tonight, it will not be considered by the board as part of a bylaw change.

1185
02:12:38.010 --> 02:12:53.670
Daffodil Tyminski: I think what i've been was suggesting for at least the way I interpreted it was, regardless of whether we vote this up or down tonight it's still may be considered as a bylaw change so can we be clear on that, before we vote just so folks know what the impact of their vote will be.

1186
02:12:54.210 --> 02:13:03.450
jim murez: Well, if we vote this up, we will still have an opportunity to vote on it again at the bylaws meeting if we voted down there will be no reason, because we will have already decided.

1187
02:13:03.960 --> 02:13:13.170
jim murez: With the majority of the vote here that it's not something we want to consider that's how i'm looking at it, I you can look at it differently, I mean i'm open to looking at it, however, you like.

1188
02:13:13.620 --> 02:13:26.370
jim murez: But to me this gives us an opportunity to try and reduce the amount of time that we're going to be spending discussing this one item which is fairly substantial as far as a change in the bylaws.

1189
02:13:27.570 --> 02:13:32.790
jim murez: And that's why, if we get it out of the way tonight, then we'll know how we want to deal with it in the bylaws painting.

1190
02:13:35.550 --> 02:13:38.760
jim murez: raquel you have your hand up did you want to say one last thing I would really.

1191
02:13:38.790 --> 02:13:41.730
Michael Jensen: Yes, I would say if we're going to put this over to the bylaws meeting.

1192
02:13:42.270 --> 02:13:56.130
Michael Jensen: If whoever is coordinating us in delray can simply go to all of the property owners on that strip of land and base, and you know get a letter you know.

1193
02:13:57.180 --> 02:14:02.520
Michael Jensen: demonstrating that they want this, I think that there's a lot that's a that's a.

1194
02:14:03.720 --> 02:14:06.540
Michael Jensen: The impression that I have on this as much different than.

1195
02:14:08.910 --> 02:14:09.330
Michael Jensen: You know.

1196
02:14:10.650 --> 02:14:14.460
Michael Jensen: neighborhood Council is requesting this change without notice to the property owners.

1197
02:14:18.780 --> 02:14:29.340
jim murez: So what I hear you saying in and correct me if i'm wrong if we vote this up tonight, then that gives them another.

1198
02:14:30.690 --> 02:14:51.030
jim murez: Until the 22nd, which is what next Wednesday next Tuesday anything in between now and next Tuesday, so one week from today, it would give them the opportunity to get a list of property owners that are in support of it and that might somehow influence you to.

1199
02:14:52.710 --> 02:14:53.910
jim murez: vote differently.

1200
02:14:55.380 --> 02:14:58.680
jim murez: In a bylaws meeting is that what you're saying mchale.

1201
02:14:59.490 --> 02:15:07.380
Michael Jensen: Well what's confusing about this as you're saying you have to vote yes on this to hear it next week versus if we just continue it it'll be hard next week.

1202
02:15:09.570 --> 02:15:19.560
Michael Jensen: And then, a vote of no means it doesn't make the bylaws change it does like just continue this unless you're trying to do a straw poll, to see if there's support I guess.

1203
02:15:19.800 --> 02:15:27.990
jim murez: Well Okay, so we could, if you want to call it, continuous we could call the let's continue this until next week because that's essentially what a yes vote does.

1204
02:15:30.300 --> 02:15:36.300
Daffodil Tyminski: I would vote sorry to talk out of turn, but I would agree with that, because just the way this is worded.

1205
02:15:37.380 --> 02:15:46.050
Daffodil Tyminski: This is a motion to amend the boundary and perhaps if we want more information and we vote yes, the record is going to reflect, something that maybe we didn't intend.

1206
02:15:46.320 --> 02:15:50.280
jim murez: Okay, so you want to make a substitute motion def adele and.

1207
02:15:50.580 --> 02:15:57.450
Daffodil Tyminski: I will i'll make a substitute motion to continue this to the bylaws meeting on march 22.

1208
02:15:57.990 --> 02:15:58.890
Michael Jensen: i'll second that.

1209
02:15:59.820 --> 02:16:03.600
jim murez: Okay, so let me just quickly document that.

1210
02:16:06.300 --> 02:16:06.990
jim murez: i'm.

1211
02:16:10.830 --> 02:16:12.060
jim murez: continued to.

1212
02:16:12.090 --> 02:16:18.330
Michael Jensen: Three while he is typing that in that can you connect me with the VP from del rey I just yeah.

1213
02:16:20.790 --> 02:16:21.210
Daffodil Tyminski: Yes.

1214
02:16:21.840 --> 02:16:23.070
jim murez: Okay data domain.

1215
02:16:24.000 --> 02:16:25.620
Daffodil Tyminski: And we do okay.

1216
02:16:26.670 --> 02:16:30.420
Daffodil Tyminski: hold on, we do have one public comment on this.

1217
02:16:31.440 --> 02:16:36.330
Michael Jensen: Or if he's listening, he can just email me chair dash l upc at Venice nc.org.

1218
02:16:39.750 --> 02:16:40.200
Andrea Boccaletti: i'm going to.

1219
02:16:40.470 --> 02:16:42.000
Andrea Boccaletti: get a line because you guys just.

1220
02:16:42.540 --> 02:16:57.930
Andrea Boccaletti: disregarded my hand we got to stop providing them opportunity to keep including this in their boundaries, we overwhelmingly heard from our stakeholders that they do not want this that's what I that's what I have to say so, no.

1221
02:16:58.440 --> 02:16:59.070
Andrea Boccaletti: Thank you.

1222
02:16:59.250 --> 02:17:01.410

1224
02:17:06.990 --> 02:17:22.830
jim murez: That was made by an eye, I have this a bug in this, I have to figure out why I didn't have time this month, but this motion was made by daffodil and it was seconded by Michael and we'll take the vote up here above but for some reason the buttons not working.

1265
02:19:30.390 --> 02:19:34.500
jim murez: Let me just timestamp this so we realize how much time we spent on it.

1266
02:19:41.070 --> 02:19:42.690
jim murez: Okay um.

1267
02:19:43.710 --> 02:20:00.270
jim murez: General consent items, there were none land use and planning consent calendar, so this is something that we haven't done in a long time, certainly not since this board we have 10 items that are on the.

1268
02:20:02.670 --> 02:20:05.370
jim murez: Agenda for consent.

1269
02:20:07.530 --> 02:20:13.050
jim murez: If anybody wants to speak up now, please do these are the 10 items i'm going to scroll through them quickly.

1270
02:20:13.350 --> 02:20:15.570
jim murez: These are all de minimis letters.

1271
02:20:15.630 --> 02:20:18.930
Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, and the staff just give me one SEC, to take a quick break.

1272
02:20:19.350 --> 02:20:22.350
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay i'm just if you need me to call on people i'll be.

1273
02:20:22.770 --> 02:20:28.860
jim murez: Okay, no i'm trying i'm going to scroll through so everybody can see what the 10 projects are and then you wanted five minutes, so he said.

1274
02:20:28.980 --> 02:20:29.220
Daffodil Tyminski: it's.

1275
02:20:29.280 --> 02:20:34.950
jim murez: Two minutes really excellent okay thanks for Okay, so we have 1201 South habit Kenny.

1276
02:20:36.840 --> 02:20:37.560
jim murez: um.

1277
02:20:40.380 --> 02:20:46.740
jim murez: 20 East 29th and, by the way, for those of you that aren't accustomed to seeing this, we have a loop hearing date.

1278
02:20:47.280 --> 02:21:07.500
jim murez: Of when it was heard now this new format, it shows all the information about the project what what sub area, the project is in that's very informative you can look at the loo packed agenda is to find out more about it, we have to 37 South sixth street 523 East brooks.

1279
02:21:08.880 --> 02:21:10.410
jim murez: 706 indiana.

1280
02:21:12.720 --> 02:21:15.240
jim murez: 717 seven street.

1281
02:21:17.460 --> 02:21:19.320
jim murez: 765 millwood.

1282
02:21:21.120 --> 02:21:23.100
jim murez: 849 Dixon.

1283
02:21:24.510 --> 02:21:26.520
jim murez: 922 Dixon.

1284
02:21:28.140 --> 02:21:30.210
jim murez: 406 rows.

1285
02:21:31.680 --> 02:21:35.400
jim murez: And that's the end of them after that there's Lou peck new business.

1286
02:21:36.660 --> 02:21:46.170
jim murez: So all of these were considered by Lou pack, and they were all considered de minimis, meaning that we're not taking a position on them at this time.

1287
02:21:48.180 --> 02:21:48.750
jim murez: um.

1288
02:21:50.400 --> 02:21:50.640
Mike Bravo: yeah.

1289
02:21:52.020 --> 02:21:52.680
jim murez: yeah hang on.

1290
02:21:52.710 --> 02:21:56.610
jim murez: hang on hang on Mike, we have to take public comment first.

1291
02:21:56.790 --> 02:21:57.120
Mike Bravo: got it.

1292
02:21:57.240 --> 02:22:04.350
jim murez: So I think I can probably do that with daffodil absent until she gets back, but I have to stop sharing the screen.

1293
02:22:05.430 --> 02:22:07.410
Michael Jensen: and actually just explain a little bit of.

1294
02:22:07.410 --> 02:22:10.920
Michael Jensen: Procedurally, of the of the change that i'm i've been implemented.

1295
02:22:11.100 --> 02:22:12.270
Michael Jensen: yeah sure that's I think.

1296
02:22:13.110 --> 02:22:14.160
Michael Jensen: there's probably a lot of.

1297
02:22:14.520 --> 02:22:15.540
Michael Jensen: kids and I want.

1298
02:22:15.540 --> 02:22:18.180
jim murez: To go ahead Okay, you have the floor.

1299
02:22:18.720 --> 02:22:33.180
Michael Jensen: So the de minimis letter is a concept that exists in our standing rules and it's essentially applied to product projects that comply with all the land, you standards, and we feel are.

1300
02:22:35.100 --> 02:22:48.450
Michael Jensen: You know, do not want you know doing Community outreach having a formal loop back meeting preparing the staff report, bringing it to the dmc, by the way, a lot of these cases never even saw the light of the dnc.

1301
02:22:49.980 --> 02:22:52.890
Michael Jensen: calendar, they just basically got.

1302
02:22:54.990 --> 02:23:08.550
Michael Jensen: You know, ignored so i'm going through and actually taking every case that's filed, even if it's I mean, for example, some of these things are converting a REC room to an ad you remodeling a bathroom.

1303
02:23:09.690 --> 02:23:12.690
Michael Jensen: Building a new at you over a garage they are.

1304
02:23:13.800 --> 02:23:27.750
Michael Jensen: not seeking any kind of variance from the plans they are complying with all of land use, standards and are issued by the planning department what's called a Venice sign off or vso.

1305
02:23:28.530 --> 02:23:39.960
Michael Jensen: Which is basically a confirmation that it meets those criteria that's, in contrast to a CDP or spp that you'll see other case numbers for.

1306
02:23:45.090 --> 02:23:49.920
jim murez: Okay, and how far back, did you go in time, I know you didn't this isn't just the new cases this went back.

1307
02:23:50.340 --> 02:23:54.210
Michael Jensen: So there was quite a backlog of stuff, which is why this list is very long.

1308
02:23:56.820 --> 02:24:12.720
Michael Jensen: loop back had basically not done anything since October or November of last year, so there's a lot of stuff i'm still getting through like I mentioned at the beginning, during the committee announcements on the loop back page, you can now see every case.

1309
02:24:13.830 --> 02:24:28.710
Michael Jensen: When I or when it gets assigned when I assign it to staff it'll indicate where the staff person is and when it's getting set for the calendar it'll also give you the date that it was heard or that it's going to be heard.

1310
02:24:30.960 --> 02:24:36.360
Michael Jensen: And that's with the goal of transparency, just so everybody can see what's on the horizon.

1311
02:24:37.980 --> 02:24:40.740
Michael Jensen: And so we can start moving cases.

1312
02:24:42.180 --> 02:24:43.650
Michael Jensen: methodically like that.

1313
02:24:44.190 --> 02:24:51.870
jim murez: And all of the cases that you have on this de minimis list, they were all discussed or publicly shared in your.

1314
02:24:52.110 --> 02:24:57.630
Michael Jensen: Luca these all came up on public on the public calendar I think i've only chaired to meeting so far.

1315
02:24:57.810 --> 02:25:06.930
Michael Jensen: right they either came up on February 24 or March 3 one of them was on both first as a presentation and then as a.

1316
02:25:07.650 --> 02:25:20.340
Michael Jensen: That one's not a de minimis letter, by the way, it's just on the consent calendar, because it received unanimous committee support, but it was each one of these cases gets a public notification.

1317
02:25:21.420 --> 02:25:36.750
Michael Jensen: And we discuss at the committee level whether or not there's consensus that this is de minimis and usually that's triggered by that vs okays number being assigned, and I confirm that, with the city planner who's the assigned staff.

1318
02:25:37.350 --> 02:25:37.560
jim murez: and

1319
02:25:37.620 --> 02:25:38.790
Michael Jensen: Let me just go back and.

1320
02:25:38.820 --> 02:25:41.910
jim murez: share the screen, I just want to be clear on something.

1321
02:25:42.990 --> 02:25:45.360
jim murez: When the projects came to.

1322
02:25:47.040 --> 02:26:07.230
jim murez: Add calm, there were 11 cases that you had put on the consent calendar, we only put 10 of them on the consent calendar for the board meeting the last one that you put on consent, because it was a unanimous vote was this 1217 ocean walk.

1323
02:26:07.650 --> 02:26:08.730
Michael Jensen: That, and I was told.

1324
02:26:09.300 --> 02:26:18.810
jim murez: That was pulled from consent and put on on onto the land use regular items so that's not being considered for consent tonight.

1325
02:26:19.920 --> 02:26:27.180
jim murez: Just so we're real clear on that everybody, there were several people that had written in objections to it, so it was no reason to put it on.

1326
02:26:27.180 --> 02:26:32.670
Michael Jensen: Understand I expected someone to pull it, but the standard is if if it gets you nano supporting committee, it goes on console.

1327
02:26:32.970 --> 02:26:42.990
jim murez: yeah no I got it Thank you Okay, so let me go back now and I don't believe daffodils back yet, but let's see if I can, if I don't share my screen.

1328
02:26:43.680 --> 02:26:52.350
Michael Jensen: and actually the first one is also not like the others in that and i've never in my five plus years of if you pull up the agenda again.

1329
02:26:52.440 --> 02:26:54.720
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah and daffodil back to.

1330
02:26:55.140 --> 02:26:58.470
Michael Jensen: The first case that's on the de minimis list.

1331
02:26:58.650 --> 02:27:00.360
Michael Jensen: Yes, is actually a.

1332
02:27:01.560 --> 02:27:03.780
Michael Jensen: lowering of intensity of use.

1333
02:27:05.430 --> 02:27:23.010
Michael Jensen: Which it's changing from a bar formerly known as the other room to a retail so that one is actually also given a vso case number, although it's not on here, I could read it, and believe that's it was in the original.

1334
02:27:24.780 --> 02:27:32.340
Michael Jensen: was in the original case number and it's if you go to the planning site it's it's it's a related case number, but because that one is going.

1335
02:27:33.360 --> 02:27:41.490
Michael Jensen: To a less intensive use the city also treats that as a vso and that's why it's on this list as well.

1336
02:27:42.330 --> 02:27:55.260
Michael Jensen: Can I just do I want to be clear that that this may look like i'm trying to jam a bunch of stuff through this is stuff that never saw the light of public hearings was basically just under the radar.

1337
02:27:56.370 --> 02:28:03.900
Michael Jensen: I simply want to process these cases, though, and not I mean they don't believe they weren't full hearings.

1338
02:28:04.470 --> 02:28:14.550
Michael Jensen: They didn't before this is just giving the light of day to them, unlike what happened before, because I know that you know, Jim rob you're shaking your head like i'm doing something crazy.

1339
02:28:15.900 --> 02:28:25.440
Michael Jensen: But this is this is actually not crazy i'm trying to actually touch every case that comes through our Community versus.

1340
02:28:26.670 --> 02:28:31.470
Michael Jensen: Not arbitrarily selecting them, but like being the only person who selects what gets heard.

1341
02:28:32.370 --> 02:28:35.640
Jim Robb: Now I understand I looked at all, they have, and I agree with you completely.

1342
02:28:35.790 --> 02:28:44.550
jim murez: Thank you Mike okay okay so let's do this daffodil now that you're back, can we go to public comment on on the consent calendar if there's any public comment.

1343
02:28:44.850 --> 02:28:46.590
Daffodil Tyminski: For and we do have some comment.

1344
02:28:47.190 --> 02:28:51.600
Ivan: i'm Jim if you're doing nexus consent, there is no public comment.

1345
02:28:51.990 --> 02:28:53.400
Ivan: Of pull an item off.

1346
02:28:55.680 --> 02:28:56.640
jim murez: Okay, so.

1347
02:28:57.840 --> 02:28:59.310
jim murez: Do we just take a load on it, if.

1348
02:28:59.310 --> 02:29:06.570
Ivan: anybody wants to talk about one of the items you pull it off consent, and then it goes on a regular right if you come back to it.

1349
02:29:07.380 --> 02:29:09.300
Daffodil Tyminski: Right, but we need to have this folks talk.

1350
02:29:11.040 --> 02:29:12.270
Ivan: i'm sorry I didn't hear that.

1351
02:29:12.300 --> 02:29:14.700
Daffodil Tyminski: We need to have the people that want to pull stuff off consent.

1352
02:29:15.450 --> 02:29:19.560
Ivan: To first thing you do us does anybody want to pull it out, you.

1353
02:29:21.660 --> 02:29:23.370
Ivan: can do automatically pair of shoes.

1354
02:29:24.150 --> 02:29:26.790
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, I think I think that's what Jim was thinking um.

1355
02:29:26.850 --> 02:29:27.750
Daffodil Tyminski: But why don't we go ahead and.

1356
02:29:27.930 --> 02:29:29.520
Daffodil Tyminski: read that for comments.

1357
02:29:30.570 --> 02:29:35.040
Daffodil Tyminski: and Elizabeth right Margaret really Helen fallon and darryl to say.

1358
02:29:35.100 --> 02:29:48.030
jim murez: So the people that are making the comment should understand that all we need to know is, if there's an item on the consent calendar that they want to take off, they need to tell us which item, it is not discuss the merits of the individual case.

1359
02:29:48.450 --> 02:29:54.870
Michael Jensen: Correct Jim doctor, they also have to give a reason why it's being pulled, so this is not just some arbitrary process.

1360
02:29:55.050 --> 02:29:59.400
Michael Jensen: yeah because i'm designing this to expedite stuff and I don't want that to be.

1361
02:29:59.400 --> 02:30:03.900
jim murez: Like I know you're absolutely correct to take something off of consent, they need to specify why.

1362
02:30:04.440 --> 02:30:07.890
Daffodil Tyminski: gotcha okay Liz right let's start with you go ahead.

1363
02:30:11.430 --> 02:30:21.990
Elizabeth Wright: And is it is true that you can have an ad you and Jay do you on one lot i'm good it's again it's not true, I would like to pull number 23.

1364
02:30:24.810 --> 02:30:25.500
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Liz.

1365
02:30:26.550 --> 02:30:27.210
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm.

1366
02:30:28.950 --> 02:30:30.270
Daffodil Tyminski: Number 23 that's.

1367
02:30:30.420 --> 02:30:34.020
Daffodil Tyminski: 70765 million okay.

1368
02:30:35.880 --> 02:30:38.670
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm Margaret malloy go ahead.

1369
02:30:39.870 --> 02:30:52.080
Margaret Molloy: So number 1712 one Abbot kinney and it's a change of intensity of us, but it is the property owner who bought the property as an existing bar seeking a change of views.

1370
02:30:52.470 --> 02:31:02.130
Margaret Molloy: And that's opposed by the currently see who recently opened a wine tasting bar so I I really want to know what's going on.

1371
02:31:02.940 --> 02:31:24.210
Margaret Molloy: Number 19 I want to know if the conversion of garage to an EDU provides adequate parking and number 26 conversion of 400 square square feet of an existing triplex into an ad you is that minimizing an existing or so unit and is that fourth unit and are so.

1372
02:31:24.570 --> 02:31:26.850
Margaret Molloy: I think that's a very important consideration that's number.

1373
02:31:26.850 --> 02:31:46.590
Margaret Molloy: 26 and I really take offense at the idea that anything that has unit unanimous support in in lupa automatically goes on consent, because we can all attend all these meetings so that seems like a strange like broad statement, thank you.

1374
02:31:47.430 --> 02:31:50.250
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Margaret i'm Helen Helen go ahead.

1375

Daffodil Tyminski: Oh, did you want to speak about any of the items on.

1379
02:32:13.590 --> 02:32:20.220
Helen Fallon: No, I would just call it up i've ever seen people twist themselves into pressel so hard as they did in the last agenda item, thank you.

1380
02:32:21.510 --> 02:32:23.490

Darryl DuFay: Have a concern about all of this because i'm sitting here in my house, but right next to me, is a notice of demolition of a large of a large building which we came to find that the applicant went to planning before they came to pack.

1383
02:32:50.760 --> 02:33:07.470
Darryl DuFay: The we were not notified, my question is what the Community for each project here notified and had an opportunity to express their their concerns or lack of concern for the project, thank you.

1384
02:33:10.830 --> 02:33:11.490
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Darrell.

1385
02:33:12.930 --> 02:33:16.080

1403
02:34:05.700 --> 02:34:12.660
melissa diner : I just want to understand you gave very clear instructions pulling it or not, none of those.

1404
02:34:12.780 --> 02:34:20.100
melissa diner : Whatever those comments were said pull it or not, so i'm not sure why we're pulling anything you just let them talk.

1405
02:34:20.490 --> 02:34:37.770
melissa diner : None of them gave a clear instruction so it's at your discretion like we've talked about in the past, I would just move on like we didn't get anyone pulling if somebody else wants to give a clear instruction great, but they didn't follow the instructions so that's all I want to say.

1406
02:34:38.850 --> 02:34:39.360
jim murez: um.

1407
02:34:43.500 --> 02:34:51.960
jim murez: yeah I hear you, I think that, for the sake of being able to give people the opportunity to speak on projects will go ahead and.

1408
02:34:52.740 --> 02:35:10.200
jim murez: we'll we'll pull these four items off of the consent calendar will approve the rest of them, and we will hear these at the end of our regular agenda and if the people that have asked to pull them off are not here at the end of the agenda, then they will just be approved by consent.

1409
02:35:11.280 --> 02:35:22.080
jim murez: And when we get ready to hear them will then take up the issues that they have and will respond to their questions and answers at that time we won't do it now Jim did you have something that you needed to.

1410
02:35:22.680 --> 02:35:24.270
Jim Robb: I just want to say, I had a few.

1411
02:35:24.270 --> 02:35:30.660
Jim Robb: questions on a couple of them, so I would prefer to do what you said and listened to them at the end so i'd be able to ask.

1412
02:35:30.960 --> 02:35:34.830
jim murez: Questions did you have specific item numbers, or whether the same ones that were.

1413
02:35:34.860 --> 02:35:41.580
Jim Robb: Some ready much yeah pretty much to say 117 for sure, and then I think the big 126 so.

1590

1596
02:54:18.690 --> 02:54:29.340

1597
02:54:29.850 --> 02:54:46.140
Margaret Molloy: There has never been an active theater in that building and I have photographs of the basement of that building and there has never been a CB in the building and Lafayette CAFE was literally a CAFE that closed at 3pm so it's a complete change of intensification of us, thank you.

1602
02:55:23.460 --> 02:55:38.970
RON CHARBONNEAU: I wholeheartedly support the sale and consumption of alcohol on the premises, I think this would add to the enjoyment and relaxation of guests and visitors celebrating the Venice beach vibe.

1603
02:55:40.110 --> 02:56:00.990
RON CHARBONNEAU: I totally support the the use of the basement as a theater space, it has been used as that performance space in the past, and I think that it would just add to the utilization of the building for the public in the Community, thank you very much.

1604
02:56:01.650 --> 02:56:02.940
Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you so much.

1607
02:56:24.720 --> 02:56:42.570

Pamela London: Now i'm a permanent resident here and i'm just thrilled about that I can say without hesitation that there's been so many great improvements that have been made, the building was a disaster when Carl bought it we had.

1613
02:57:26.640 --> 02:57:28.770
Pamela London: Immense costly issues that.

1614

1616
02:57:39.300 --> 02:57:53.100
Pamela London: windows that lead to air and rain no heat winters and winters without heat, no one fixes steam heat and it was very brutal life here for years, because the building was a disaster.

1617
02:57:53.700 --> 02:58:11.670
Pamela London: And Carl after years of hard work it's so we're like in a new building now and it's we're so grateful to be here and he he worked so hard and have so many problems in making it back to brand new condition.

1618
02:58:12.870 --> 02:58:23.280
Pamela London: It took a while, but we're back and it's wonderful life and we were welcomed here on the first day of our return by the hotel staff with immense warmth and kindness.

1619
02:58:23.760 --> 02:58:31.860
Pamela London: And this has continued daily and they highly respect that this is our home and they make our life very happy here.

1622
02:58:52.020 --> 02:59:02.100
Pamela London: Probably once a week to the Lafayette and i'm totally in support of alcohol service there and going there with friends and having a night out.

1635
02:59:51.720 --> 02:59:59.340
Jack V. Hoffmann: Work on that building, he was named was George lenny and he was committed to it, and it was always more than he could ever handle Carl has.

1636
03:00:00.150 --> 03:00:09.840
Jack V. Hoffmann: resurrected this landmark for future generations and it's now going to do what it was originally designed and built to do, which is to serve the public for decades to come.

1637
03:00:10.590 --> 03:00:21.510
Jack V. Hoffmann: The restaurant that used to be there, I think, would be a great replacement of activity in the evening, given the type of activity that we typically have on the boardwalk and having.

1638
03:00:22.050 --> 03:00:27.930
Jack V. Hoffmann: A theater in the area is very consistent with Venice, given the Laurel and hardy had a theater 11 navy street.

1639
03:00:28.260 --> 03:00:35.670
Jack V. Hoffmann: and others like Charlie Chaplin did his first movie down here, this is very consistent with the dynamic nature of our creative community.

1640
03:00:36.120 --> 03:00:44.550
Jack V. Hoffmann: The alcohol legalized alcohol, I am all in favor for given the amount of drunkenness that goes on in public illegally.

1641
03:00:45.060 --> 03:01:00.630
Jack V. Hoffmann: And I would encourage it in every way and all respects and aspects with this building, I think the work that's been done and I appreciate being part of this community and seeing things begin to improve in the direction they have gone, and this has gone Thank you.

Tima Bell: This has been an incredible passion project to give back to my community, the first true boutique hotel in Venice.

1660
03:03:27.150 --> 03:03:33.450

Frank Lutz: Where the waldorf is located i've been here for a long time, and her own property on the street.

1683
03:06:04.620 --> 03:06:11.640
Frank Lutz: And it's been a mess, for a long time, and what Carl has done is he's improved the building and made it really beautiful inside and outside.

1684
03:06:12.030 --> 03:06:19.890
Frank Lutz: But he's also improved the street it's much safer now and more comfortable for families and for people of all ages he's also providing security.

03:07:41.460 --> 03:07:50.460

1699
03:07:51.210 --> 03:08:05.460
Mike Bravo: I know it says print on there, but i'm pretty sure it's an illegal be converted hotel last I checked and a lot of our soul units were lost in there, and as far as I see up I don't believe what could be issued wouldn't within 500 feet of the residential.

1700
03:08:07.080 --> 03:08:09.690
Mike Bravo: zone so that's that and.

Elizabeth Wright: Hello Mike I apologize, I did not hear from you, I tried to get in touch with you when I read this I thought this is ideal for the discussion forum forum Committee, which is supposed to be taking on broad issues such as this.

1923
03:24:44.760 --> 03:24:45.450
Elizabeth Wright: I have some.

1924
03:24:46.560 --> 03:24:58.080

Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: yeah hi good evening I think this is a very well rounded and well thought out mission statement and it's very important and appropriate to the Venice Community multiple neighborhood Councils do have similar social justice and equity.

1928
03:25:32.550 --> 03:25:44.790
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: committees, and they do quite well, so it would fit very well as a standalone Committee, I would also like to point out that oops hold on last my notes that.

1929
03:25:46.170 --> 03:25:50.490
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Mike bravo would really be a great leader, he would lead in good faith.

03:26:28.050 --> 03:26:35.070
Erica Moore: You know this has been birthed out of a lot of hard work that Mike has already shown, and I know that just because he's putting it for it doesn't mean he'll get the.

1936
03:26:35.580 --> 03:26:44.850

Jason Sugars: The change of the specificity of the use of the word, racial or racist was that.

1974
03:31:10.080 --> 03:31:21.720
Jason Sugars: Is that been taken out here, I see that it's at the bottom, and I see it's still in the header I don't know if that was changed with cause or if there's kind of just more of a broader scope of what you want to be covering.

1995
03:33:36.690 --> 03:33:43.950
Mike Bravo: Because social justice, an explanation or kind of cover social justice and I mentioned racial justice in the actual.

1996
03:33:44.940 --> 03:33:52.080
Mike Bravo: mission statement, so I figure social justice, gives them more of a broad umbrella terms of like the intersex now the LGBT Q.

1997
03:33:53.070 --> 03:34:09.960
Mike Bravo: different communities, you know gender issues as well, they all face various equity and representation issues so that's the reason for just putting the social justice banner change the title to the social justice and equity committee that's that comes from and.

1998
03:34:11.490 --> 03:34:16.500
Mike Bravo: I believe, as far the question was about the type of motions so right now there's a lot of.

Mike Bravo: departments or a la city, I start a civil rights and equity, along with the original Justice Department they go to different departments along racial justice and civil rights, and so the one it's going to be a education centered.

2000
03:34:34.860 --> 03:34:40.620
Mike Bravo: committee and then from there, you know, we want to inform people that will we have making for motions versus motions that.

2001
03:34:41.760 --> 03:34:47.310
Mike Bravo: are made that aren't really backed up by you know fact or correct data, so one so that way people feel.

2002
03:34:47.820 --> 03:34:54.390
Mike Bravo: Have discussion elemental people feel they're part of the process as well that that's really important to have informed discussion.

2003
03:34:54.930 --> 03:35:07.110
Mike Bravo: And the Santa to compliment, a lot of the work that you know California coastal the state of California la city there's lots of different initiatives that they're working on so it's a way to one educate and inform.

2004
03:35:08.520 --> 03:35:15.060
Mike Bravo: The Community i'm putting on on racial justice social justice issues to better inform back on terminologies.

2005
03:35:15.540 --> 03:35:30.570
Mike Bravo: You know, maybe just you know blind spot in terms of know language you might use or things you might say or do etc, and so to compliment you know so to inform the public, as well as a compliment these different agencies in the state and in the city and the county as well.

2006
03:35:31.620 --> 03:35:43.800

03:35:55.140 --> 03:36:00.810
Mike Bravo: issues as well, so we will definitely be talking about that for sure, as far as motions I don't plan on.

2010
03:36:01.710 --> 03:36:10.170
Mike Bravo: A direct emotions that are going to infringe on any other committee and if there's some we do decide to make a motion we would definitely you know.

2011
03:36:10.680 --> 03:36:23.880
Mike Bravo: We know be mature enough to collaborate with different committees if if we feel it needs to you know more collaboration and we can expand on the support for education and whatever mostly might be thinking about.

2053
03:38:57.450 --> 03:39:16.890
Jim Robb: Request councilman Bono work with the l a each essay as revision crows office to dialogue, these groups had moved these events to a more suitable location with letter sent to all three and as her person said they're working on it right now, so that is the motion.

03:39:51.480 --> 03:39:53.670
Daffodil Tyminski: Bob you need to unmute yourself.

2064
03:39:58.590 --> 03:40:01.710
Daffodil Tyminski: All right, why don't we come back to Bob and let's go with Sean o'brien.

Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you Sean you get the award for breakfast comment ever Margaret go ahead.

2067
03:40:17.940 --> 03:40:30.750
Margaret Molloy: I oppose this motion in 1984 the Venice homeless Task Force suggested the closing the public bathrooms on the ocean front walk at sunset and turning off the drinking water fountains.

2068
03:40:31.170 --> 03:40:35.790
Margaret Molloy: With discouraged discourage homeless people from congregating at the beach, you can see where that went.

2069
03:40:36.390 --> 03:40:43.470
Margaret Molloy: In fact, the food distribution that happens that rose avenue is a lot of house people who need food supplements.

2070
03:40:43.920 --> 03:41:01.560
Margaret Molloy: You know we're in a crisis mode and I think that it's insane to think depriving people of substance is going to solve the homeless issue it's not a magnet for homelessness it's the most basic civil action, we could take as a Community, so I opposes motion, thank you.

2071
03:41:02.910 --> 03:41:05.400
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Margaret um.

2072
03:41:06.630 --> 03:41:07.890
Daffodil Tyminski: Lisa brightman go ahead.

2073
03:41:10.350 --> 03:41:22.650
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: yeah i'm against this motion as well as Margaret pointed out it's not just necessarily for unhealthy people there's a lot of people that are food insecure that do.

2074
03:41:23.010 --> 03:41:32.130
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: come to this food distribution they know it's there, and most of those people are at that senior facility right across, on the other side of ocean front wall.

2075
03:41:33.450 --> 03:41:44.550
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: And that what also is not being addressed is that is also written into the city code that there are up to two spots and ocean front walk that can distribute food.

2076
03:41:44.970 --> 03:41:49.230
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: And this goes back to that time when there used to be a lottery for the Vending slots.

2077
03:41:50.040 --> 03:41:58.290
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: So yes, there in the parking lot because that's where they can go and they park their cars, but they aren't like standing in the middle of the parking lot they're there on the edge.

2078
03:41:58.680 --> 03:42:10.050
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Working on the edge of ocean front walk so it really is pretty much like an ocean front walk distribution for people with food insecurity, so please don't vote for this.

2079
03:42:11.010 --> 03:42:14.670
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Lisa i'm zach go ahead.

2080

03:43:00.450 --> 03:43:02.280

2089
03:43:14.850 --> 03:43:17.250
Erica Moore: OK now i'm freaked out and feel like I need to present.

2090
03:43:19.200 --> 03:43:29.940
Erica Moore: The deal is this, I think if the food is be distributed properly, I am absolutely 100% for it if it's not being distributed properly, that means following codes of.

2091
03:43:30.780 --> 03:43:40.290
Erica Moore: Safe you know food handling and obviously not causing a nuisance and things like that I personally am involved in distributing a lot of food to the homeless.

2092
03:43:40.620 --> 03:43:43.410
Erica Moore: And I think it's very important like they talked about it isn't.

2093
03:43:43.410 --> 03:43:45.330
Erica Moore: Just always there's a lot of people that have.

2094
03:43:45.330 --> 03:43:45.840
Erica Moore: jobs.

2095
03:43:46.110 --> 03:44:00.630
Erica Moore: That don't have money to buy extra you produce and things like that food is very, very expensive now and there's people that are food insecure there's families a lot of single parents that rely on programs like that.

2096
03:44:00.870 --> 03:44:14.760
Erica Moore: So I will read the motion i'm thinking that I would be a I would I would want there to be able to be food distributed, but I have to read the motion to see I mean I apologize for not rereading it tonight, but that's what I have to say, thanks.

2097
03:44:16.020 --> 03:44:24.300
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Erica and our last public comment Lisa robbins I feel like maybe perhaps you already did comment, but I could be.

2098
03:44:24.780 --> 03:44:26.730
lisarobins: No, that was on a different motion.

2099
03:44:26.790 --> 03:44:28.440
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay i'm so sorry go ahead.

2100
03:44:28.680 --> 03:44:29.040
lisarobins: Okay.

2101
03:44:29.220 --> 03:44:33.060
lisarobins: I just say wherever the people are hungry is probably where we should.

2102
03:44:33.060 --> 03:44:33.810
lisarobins: feed them.

2103
03:44:35.190 --> 03:44:38.100
lisarobins: Along with giving them bathrooms and stuff like that.

2104
03:44:39.300 --> 03:44:44.130
lisarobins: How to take care of the whole situation is a whole nother conversation, but on a short term.

2105
03:44:44.820 --> 03:44:57.450
lisarobins: I do believe that we should feed people where they are and not make them travel, but I do want to reread the proposal because i'm quite sure now and Jim maybe you could post it for us to read right now.

2106
03:45:00.960 --> 03:45:01.290

2119
03:45:43.890 --> 03:45:48.150
Daffodil Tyminski: um so it appears Bob is not commenting, so why don't we close public.

2120
03:45:48.150 --> 03:45:55.920
Daffodil Tyminski: comment i'm zach has been made a panelist and I imagine if there's something to say, as we have more comment, he can weigh in.

2121
03:45:56.010 --> 03:46:13.020
jim murez: yeah let's let's let's hold off and let zach go last and and in the meantime we'll go ahead, through the committee questions that they may have, and then we'll come back and close it up and take a boat, so the first hand up was NICO go ahead NICO.

2122
03:46:14.850 --> 03:46:20.100
Nico Ruderman: yeah I really probably just have one question it's it's proposing to move it off the boardwalk.

2123
03:46:21.270 --> 03:46:35.580
Nico Ruderman: But there doesn't seem to be a proposal of where to move it obviously that needs to be worked out, I guess, but you know I I question saying moving it's without specifying where.

2124
03:46:36.990 --> 03:46:40.140
jim murez: Okay, thank you vicki go ahead, please.

2125
03:46:44.790 --> 03:46:58.830
Vicki Halliday: um my question wasn't in this is similar to emotion that we had put through homeless Committee and the issue that I found with this was not that the.

2126
03:47:00.120 --> 03:47:12.120
Vicki Halliday: The food was there that it was after last summer St joseph's sort of walked away and no outreach was coming back when when people were being fed.

2127
03:47:13.110 --> 03:47:30.420
Vicki Halliday: Yes, I think there are some some food insecurities there, but there were also homeless homeless people there that that i've watched, especially on Thursday mornings when when that feeding takes place um I did speak with.

2128
03:47:31.950 --> 03:47:43.200
Vicki Halliday: Janet and Ted lose office who had asked about this she had gotten involved with talking with St joseph's making sure that people were coming back also WASA.

2129
03:47:43.770 --> 03:47:57.330
Vicki Halliday: I think it's critical that they they don't just walk away most of the people who are coming are older, some room walkers some are in wheelchairs, yes, they may be, from the saffron Center.

2130
03:47:58.830 --> 03:48:12.570
Vicki Halliday: But St joseph's or Lawson needs to come find out and to make sure that these people have had an outreach the people that are down there can't walk to bread and roses, which was the suggestion um.

2131
03:48:13.500 --> 03:48:21.450
Vicki Halliday: So I think there's there's a little bit more to it than just stopping are starting the food distribution, thank you.

2132
03:48:23.070 --> 03:48:26.010
jim murez: Thank you vicki i'm Clark go ahead.

2133
03:48:27.060 --> 03:48:31.440
clark brown: I think the key words in the motion or dialogue and suitable location.

2134
03:48:31.950 --> 03:48:42.120
clark brown: On the most it does not say that there that the food distribution Center is to be moved in some other specific place and only provides for a dialogue about the best location.

2135
03:48:42.600 --> 03:48:53.370
clark brown: Or the food distribution centers present place maybe the best place for it, but it also may not be so I think having a dialogue about a suitable location is worthwhile.

2136
03:48:55.410 --> 03:48:56.130
jim murez: Thank you Clark.

2137
03:48:57.150 --> 03:49:03.570
jim murez: um do we have any other board kombucha mama come back to you in a second but anybody else have anything to say about it.

2138
03:49:04.620 --> 03:49:05.760
jim murez: Definitely i'll go ahead, please.

2139
03:49:06.420 --> 03:49:11.850
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I mean I live fairly close to where that it should be the food and I do know there's a lot of neighborhood.

2140
03:49:13.380 --> 03:49:28.590
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks let's say about the amount of food that's just tossed on the boardwalk and throw like sort of cluttering up the trash cans, so I don't I don't think this is trying to not have the food distribution and just trying to find maybe a better location to do it.

2141
03:49:29.610 --> 03:49:41.430
Daffodil Tyminski: We have St joseph's two blocks away or three blocks away that could easily handle the food distribution or other facilities that are already set up for this type of thing so.

2142
03:49:43.050 --> 03:49:50.730
Daffodil Tyminski: I don't think it's unreasonable to move this off the boardwalk I think that typically oceanfront walk committee has been looking at this issue for a while.

2143
03:49:52.650 --> 03:49:54.240
Daffodil Tyminski: So that's my two cents.

2144
03:49:54.540 --> 03:49:57.000
jim murez: All right, thank you, Robert go ahead, please.

2145
03:49:59.850 --> 03:50:07.170
robert thibodeau: i'm curious if this goes on and other beaches and beach parking lots and I don't know if.

2146
03:50:08.580 --> 03:50:15.960
robert thibodeau: The makers of the motion are like does this happen in other communities, besides ours are we, the only ones.

2147
03:50:17.070 --> 03:50:28.410
robert thibodeau: who have this going on at the at the beach did Is this something that happens, like in the south Bay did they defeat feed the homeless, on the beach or or north of us.

2148
03:50:29.820 --> 03:50:39.210
robert thibodeau: i'm just not familiar with it, this is like typical operating procedure or This is something that is specific to Venice that these feeding stations have.

2149
03:50:39.660 --> 03:50:41.070
robert thibodeau: happened in the beach.

2150
03:50:43.590 --> 03:50:46.770

Daffodil Tyminski: So I apologize it's my bad.

2153
03:50:53.070 --> 03:50:53.610
jim murez: Thank you.

2154
03:50:55.620 --> 03:50:56.130
jim murez: um.

2155
03:50:56.580 --> 03:50:59.880
Daffodil Tyminski: I don't know exactly something further to say on this or not, but he is.

2156
03:51:00.150 --> 03:51:05.940
jim murez: I was going to call on zach to answer some of these questions that Oh, I see Jason has his hand up go ahead Jason.

2157
03:51:10.710 --> 03:51:11.610
Jason Sugars: can vote here.

Jason Sugars: didn't understand you're not voting right now.

2162
03:51:23.370 --> 03:51:30.120
Jason Sugars: i'm saying a boat, yes, would be a vote for a discussion on the matter, and not a boat to ban them feeding them where they're doing it now right we're talking about it.

2163
03:51:30.660 --> 03:51:43.890
jim murez: The the the the vote of yes, would be to support the motion that's displayed on the screen, which is asking the councilman Lhasa, and the county supervisor.

2164
03:51:44.280 --> 03:51:55.560
jim murez: To start dialoguing with groups that put these events on for a more suitable location it's not saying that they need to move off tomorrow it's saying come up with an answer guys.

2165
03:51:57.240 --> 03:52:05.280
jim murez: If there's one to be had there may not be one to be had, I mean this is not saying that there is an answer it's just saying open the dialogue that answer you.

2166
03:52:07.410 --> 03:52:09.330
jim murez: Okay um do we have any other hands.

2167
03:52:11.190 --> 03:52:14.040
jim murez: Jim rob you had your hand up did you still want to speak to this.

2168
03:52:15.120 --> 03:52:16.080
jim murez: He lowered your hand.

2169
03:52:16.710 --> 03:52:30.510
Jim Robb: yeah all I was saying is we're trying to open dialogue to figure out locations i'm not saying nobody's getting food i'm not saying anything bad about it i'm asking for other locations, that we could possibly look at for doing this.

2170
03:52:30.780 --> 03:52:32.430
Jim Robb: understood, thank you.

2171
03:52:32.580 --> 03:52:38.610
jim murez: So zach do you have answers to either of the two questions that I don't think were answered.

2172
03:52:40.140 --> 03:52:43.530
jim murez: move where and what the other locations might be.

2173
03:52:44.850 --> 03:52:45.210
Zac Gaidzik: So.

2174
03:52:45.270 --> 03:52:49.710
jim murez: I don't wanna I don't want to put you on the spot, if you don't have an answer just say I don't have an answer and that's fine well.

2175
03:52:50.850 --> 03:53:00.960
Zac Gaidzik: So i'll i'll just say we don't have an answer for where these could move right now, I will say that, where they are currently is not the most appropriate place.

2176
03:53:01.440 --> 03:53:01.980
Zac Gaidzik: and

2177
03:53:02.100 --> 03:53:16.590
Zac Gaidzik: And that is the position that we're taking and that we're currently working with every entity, we can, to have a holistic conversation about this to try to find better locations and to work with all the parties involved.

2178
03:53:17.790 --> 03:53:28.020
jim murez: And do you know if any of the other beach communities that you know, fall within your district are yours your supervisory area have.

2179
03:53:29.820 --> 03:53:33.750
jim murez: Things like this activities like this on the beach or on their beach parking lots.

2180
03:53:34.230 --> 03:53:47.070
Zac Gaidzik: i'm not aware of any and I, and I will always say that Venice is extremely extremely unique it's what makes this amazing but it's also part of the reality here.

2181
03:53:47.340 --> 03:53:51.570
jim murez: and your district includes Santa Monica and Manhattan both right.

2182
03:53:51.930 --> 03:54:00.060
Zac Gaidzik: Oh, we go to just the edge of the silver strand, and then we go up north to the border with ventura.

2183
03:54:00.420 --> 03:54:03.000
jim murez: Okay, so that would include malibu and Santa Monica.

2184
03:54:03.360 --> 03:54:05.820

03:55:45.510 --> 03:55:47.010
jim murez: timestamp that real quick.

2224
03:55:50.640 --> 03:55:58.080
jim murez: and moving right along so parking and transportation Robert you want to go ahead and read the motion.

2225
03:56:02.280 --> 03:56:04.950
robert thibodeau: Whereas since.

2226
03:56:05.130 --> 03:56:09.870
jim murez: Now you don't need to read you don't need to read the warehouse part just the motion part the parking and transportation.

2227
03:56:12.510 --> 03:56:21.840
robert thibodeau: parking transportation requested Venice neighborhood Council send a letter supporting the residents of hurricane street and the dnc support for the parking.

2228
03:56:30.300 --> 03:56:30.990
jim murez: Did we lose you.

2229
03:56:31.800 --> 03:56:32.670
robert thibodeau: yeah you did.

2230
03:56:35.730 --> 03:56:37.260
robert thibodeau: I can read it is written.

2231
03:56:37.650 --> 03:56:40.410
jim murez: it's on it's on it's on the screen yeah.

2232
03:56:41.430 --> 03:56:49.650
robert thibodeau: I think this this didn't get written right the parking and transportation committee request the Venice neighborhood Council send a letter supporting the residents of hurricane street.

2233
03:56:50.220 --> 03:57:00.960
robert thibodeau: And dnc support for the parking lot project until and unless the city addresses the issues of concern to the residents in the area.

2234
03:57:02.220 --> 03:57:03.630
robert thibodeau: That to me is unclear.

2235
03:57:04.560 --> 03:57:05.850
jim murez: But I think what happened.

2236
03:57:06.300 --> 03:57:10.350
jim murez: Well let's make the motion that I can explain a little bit, we can clarify it and.

2237
03:57:12.990 --> 03:57:16.290
jim murez: We also need a second, we have a second.

2238
03:57:18.240 --> 03:57:18.480
Vicki Halliday: Maybe.

2239
03:57:19.620 --> 03:57:20.220
Vicki Halliday: On second.

2240
03:57:21.990 --> 03:57:22.380
jim murez: vicki.

2241
03:57:23.190 --> 03:57:27.720
Oliver Fries: We wanted to I get kicked out or put myself on mute because I recuse myself.

2242
03:57:29.160 --> 03:57:29.640
jim murez: Sorry.

2243
03:57:30.420 --> 03:57:35.040
Oliver Fries: I said I recuse myself on this, so do I get kicked out or I just stay on mute.

2244
03:57:35.160 --> 03:57:38.460
jim murez: You just use stay muted and keep your screen off.

2245
03:57:40.500 --> 03:57:53.790
jim murez: Robert what happened is there was it was discussed an ad COM, there was some wording in there that talks about reversing a previous V and see position and that's not something that the Board has the ability to do.

2246
03:57:54.060 --> 03:57:54.570
robert thibodeau: So that.

2247
03:57:54.810 --> 03:57:56.730
jim murez: Those words were removed.

2248
03:57:57.210 --> 03:58:00.570
robert thibodeau: Okay, so I i'd suggest we we.

2249
03:58:03.480 --> 03:58:13.230
robert thibodeau: So the motion as read and written is unclear on on what we're supporting it seems like there was the wording of the motion.

2250
03:58:16.860 --> 03:58:19.680
robert thibodeau: Support the residents of hurricane street, but for what and.

2251
03:58:20.550 --> 03:58:25.950
robert thibodeau: yeah I see what your support for the parking lot it sounds like you're both I can explain to the board.

2252
03:58:27.000 --> 03:58:27.210
robert thibodeau: The.

2253
03:58:28.500 --> 03:58:44.220
robert thibodeau: The this project originally came before the dnc some four to five years ago for the pumping station on hurricane and the pumping station on hurricane they wanted to use the adjacent lot, which I believe is a residential lot from memory.

2254
03:58:45.870 --> 03:58:56.220
robert thibodeau: it's someone can check up that probably doesn't matter it's a residential lot it was never built on it kind of has these high power electrical wires to then go into the.

2255
03:58:57.420 --> 03:59:09.330
robert thibodeau: pump station so it's not a very desirable lot and maybe even not buildable it's quite a small lot they want the pumping station wants to put a parking lot they came before the.

2256
03:59:10.620 --> 03:59:20.370
robert thibodeau: dnc pre coded work came before the park park transportation pre code, I was not on the parking transportation at that time I was on the dnc at that time.

2257
03:59:21.630 --> 03:59:24.180
robert thibodeau: There really wasn't much to it at that point in time.

2258
03:59:26.700 --> 03:59:27.660
robert thibodeau: The.

2259
03:59:28.950 --> 03:59:39.420
robert thibodeau: Residents of hurricane now some four years later and partially because of what's gone on in the other parking lots in Venice.

2260
03:59:39.990 --> 03:59:50.940
robert thibodeau: are worried because the parking lot is planned to be open 24 seven whereas I think there was some thought that was only going to be used for the employees of the.

2261
03:59:52.500 --> 03:59:57.930
robert thibodeau: Of the pump station and and people at work on the pump station.

2262
03:59:59.130 --> 04:00:11.550
robert thibodeau: For maintenance and now it seems like on the off hours it's going to be left open, and I think they're they're scared to death, that the parking lot going to become a campsite I mean it's kind of.

2263
04:00:12.360 --> 04:00:22.770
jim murez: So, Robert let me see if I can get this working correctly I think what we want to do, because it was edited back in had come, I think we want to strike.

2264
04:00:23.940 --> 04:00:29.340
jim murez: The end B and C and add in the word not.

2265
04:00:30.570 --> 04:00:30.840
robert thibodeau: And I.

2266
04:00:31.320 --> 04:00:34.110
robert thibodeau: Think right to me, Jim because right now it's it's.

2267
04:00:34.410 --> 04:00:37.020
jim murez: I just can't understand yeah it just it wasn't.

2268
04:00:37.020 --> 04:00:37.860
jim murez: reader clearly.

2269
04:00:38.340 --> 04:00:46.530
jim murez: yeah, so I think that that would read clearly and and, if you agree with that motion that slight modification vicki do you want to.

2270
04:00:47.700 --> 04:00:48.870
jim murez: Still second that.

2271
04:00:51.540 --> 04:00:52.110
Vicki Halliday: idea.

2272
04:00:52.500 --> 04:00:55.020
jim murez: Okay um so different.

2273
04:00:55.320 --> 04:00:58.830
robert thibodeau: Ways by the Community, by the way, several members of the community this wasn't.

2274
04:00:59.310 --> 04:01:01.410
jim murez: Something that we, I know I I understand.

2275
04:01:01.890 --> 04:01:07.200
jim murez: Let me, let me go back to conducting the meeting and let's get some public comment, and then we can discuss it up in the board.

2276
04:01:08.430 --> 04:01:11.310
jim murez: Okay daffodil Can you help with public comment.

2277
04:01:11.670 --> 04:01:13.500
jim murez: or some since.

2278
04:01:14.340 --> 04:01:17.370
Daffodil Tyminski: We have a few hands up Michael hoffs why don't you go first.

2279
04:01:21.450 --> 04:01:28.560
Michael Hoffs: Ladies and gentlemen, i'm an 18 year resident on hurricane and i've endured three other.

2280
04:01:29.520 --> 04:01:39.570
Michael Hoffs: projects that have had to do on hurricane directly or indirectly, with the with the pumpkin plan and sewage and in so doing, the city has been.

2281
04:01:40.440 --> 04:01:49.140
Michael Hoffs: has listened to the residents and done things to you know repudiate the you know the noise and you know and other things that have gone on on hurricane.

2282
04:01:49.410 --> 04:01:54.300
Michael Hoffs: But they've never offered something to us, you know in gratis you know after they've.

2283
04:01:54.780 --> 04:02:05.490
Michael Hoffs: You know, made a lot a you know, a staging area, the parking lot that they want to actually put in is is going to be unmanned and it's going to be open parking and.

2284
04:02:05.940 --> 04:02:21.300
Michael Hoffs: And you know and bike parking which really doesn't make any sense whatsoever, because we don't need bike park in into our parking spots on hurricane, this will create a serious bottleneck lot of crime and something that frankly we're not asking for at all and we don't need.

2285
04:02:23.550 --> 04:02:24.300
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Michael.

2286
04:02:25.980 --> 04:02:27.750
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm Steve bradbury go ahead.

2287
04:02:30.780 --> 04:02:39.120
Steve Bradbury: Great Thank you everybody i'm the one that brought this motion to the to the committee so i'm happy to answer questions after the fact, if we're doing board discussion.

2288
04:02:39.540 --> 04:02:58.230
Steve Bradbury: Or maybe some more time now everyone to do it this as Mike said came completely out of the idea that the original plan in 2017 was purely going to be for employee parking and between 2017 when we have the original er meetings and today there's been no communication whatsoever.

2289
04:02:58.530 --> 04:03:04.860
Steve Bradbury: With the neighborhood about anything, not just about the parking but about the entire project and, in fact.

2290
04:03:05.340 --> 04:03:10.260
Steve Bradbury: Claire burnout ski brought has brought an appeal of the final decision.

2291
04:03:10.650 --> 04:03:17.100
Steve Bradbury: on behalf of a couple of neighbors about the entire project so there's a bigger issue here, but part of it is the parking.

2292
04:03:17.430 --> 04:03:32.850
Steve Bradbury: that none of us on the street and, by the way, I have six letters from people on hurricane that i've gathered in the last 72 hours, who none of whom want to have public parking in this lot so there's a lot more to it here i'm happy to answer any questions for the board.

2293
04:03:33.810 --> 04:03:34.290
jim murez: Thank you.

2294
04:03:35.310 --> 04:03:39.570
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah thanks so much to um Colin fallon go ahead.

2295
04:03:42.540 --> 04:03:49.320
Helen Fallon: let's debrief on just a brief comment, I think the word you want is not not it's non for no and.

2296
04:03:52.110 --> 04:03:54.660
Helen Fallon: Your motion actually reached like English.

2297
04:03:58.410 --> 04:04:00.120
Helen Fallon: And thank you all I gotta say.

2298
04:04:00.390 --> 04:04:04.020
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, thank you Lisa redmond go ahead.

2299
04:04:05.790 --> 04:04:19.980
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: yeah I understand that the residents of hurricane are concerned, and they want an immediate answer but i'm just going to say that, from a procedural point of view that this motion needs to be delayed because.

2300
04:04:20.220 --> 04:04:27.390
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: i'm looking at your screen Jim where it says attachments but i've got the agenda pulled right up from the Venice neighborhood Council website.

2301
04:04:27.810 --> 04:04:37.290
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: And there are no attachments and I try to research and prepare before meetings and I went down and looked at the spot, I didn't understand because I didn't have attachments.

2302
04:04:37.770 --> 04:04:50.580
Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: I didn't know what I was looking for, there was no attachments to the previous motion I it's very confusing and so there really wasn't sufficient public notice so i'm going to ask that this be postponed and written better.

2303
04:04:54.510 --> 04:04:57.180
Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you Lisa i'm Erica go ahead.

2304
04:04:59.610 --> 04:05:05.820
Erica Moore: hi there um, I just wanted to say that what I think is really odd about I know that in the emotion, they had talked about.

2305
04:05:06.420 --> 04:05:14.310
Erica Moore: It was going to only be limited parking between 2am and like 6am or something like that and to me It just seems kind of.

2306
04:05:14.790 --> 04:05:24.990
Erica Moore: ludicrous because most people are coming home and some earlier than that if you really don't want people parking there you wouldn't want them there for a longer period of time It just seems kind of strange to me.

2307
04:05:25.470 --> 04:05:34.620
Erica Moore: But I can absolutely understand why they don't want this part just unmanned and open for a free for all I do understand that and I think that.

2308
04:05:35.190 --> 04:05:50.940
Erica Moore: I think that the city is kind of indicative of what the city does and because this was from prior to the pandemic and then the pandemic, you know the communication gets all crazy I just think that I mean, I think it does have to be reevaluated but it just doesn't make sense to me thanks.

2309
04:05:52.860 --> 04:05:57.000
Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you Erica with that Jim will close public comment.

2310
04:06:03.750 --> 04:06:06.300
jim murez: Okay um do we have any board comment.

2311
04:06:14.790 --> 04:06:16.380
jim murez: No hands any hands.

2312
04:06:20.310 --> 04:06:25.140
Daffodil Tyminski: i'll just say just, and this is maybe sort of synthesizing some of the comments that we heard.

2313
04:06:25.590 --> 04:06:32.070
Daffodil Tyminski: I actually read all of the documents on this and i'm still not entirely sure I understand the issue I get that the city wants to.

2314
04:06:32.580 --> 04:06:42.930
Daffodil Tyminski: Have a pumping station and to affect that they believe they need to have this parking lot and the real dispute seems to be whether or not the parking lot is open to the public is that a fair.

2315
04:06:43.110 --> 04:06:44.370
Daffodil Tyminski: that's fair that's right.

2316
04:06:44.640 --> 04:06:57.870
jim murez: that's great and actually I do recall this coming before the board I don't know four or five years ago and, at the time the the lot was going to be just for employee parking and it was supposed to be landscape, so it would look nice from the exterior.

2317
04:06:58.320 --> 04:07:05.010
Daffodil Tyminski: Right, I mean it seems to me that the city does what it wants to do so if we really have a concern here, we need to take a position.

2318
04:07:05.730 --> 04:07:06.150
jim murez: and

2319
04:07:06.720 --> 04:07:07.530
Daffodil Tyminski: We have a voice.

2320
04:07:07.590 --> 04:07:22.230
jim murez: Let me also mentioned that that I received a letter and I forgot maybe it's ex parte communication not clear, but I did receive a letter, a few weeks ago that that this project that was supposed to go before planning had been postponed.

2321
04:07:23.610 --> 04:07:39.450
jim murez: And, and it was postponed until sometime in mid April, I believe, and when I looked at it, I don't believe it was possible to also I actually forwarded this case to Robert so that way, it would it was an agenda request that came in, so I was sort of involved in it, but at any rate.

2322
04:07:40.020 --> 04:07:42.990
jim murez: yeah, it is time sensitive, we need to make a decision tonight.

2323
04:07:43.440 --> 04:07:55.650
Daffodil Tyminski: But I mean, I think the way the motion reads it says that we not support the project, unless the city addresses the issues of concern to the right is there any suggestion that the city is actually going to address any of the residents concerns.

2324
04:07:57.150 --> 04:07:58.740
jim murez: Good question we have to ask the city.

2325
04:08:00.840 --> 04:08:01.230
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay.

2326
04:08:02.250 --> 04:08:06.930
Michael Jensen: Can we just say that the issue of concern and that the.

2327
04:08:08.010 --> 04:08:14.670
Michael Jensen: If they don't close it to the public movie it doesn't support it, I think we're sort of spinning into the wind, but.

2328
04:08:17.160 --> 04:08:20.340
jim murez: We could we could modify it to do that if we want it.

2329
04:08:21.600 --> 04:08:24.900
jim murez: But then we would start writing what are all of the conditions.

2330
04:08:26.940 --> 04:08:30.570
Michael Jensen: Is there another one, besides open to the public.

2331
04:08:32.490 --> 04:08:34.830
jim murez: Robert do you recall, are there any other issues I.

2332
04:08:37.860 --> 04:08:39.030
jim murez: can't hear you gotta unmute.

2333
04:08:41.910 --> 04:08:42.420
robert thibodeau: oops.

2334
04:08:43.680 --> 04:08:57.240
robert thibodeau: yeah it's it's really that the Community does not oppose a parking lot per se, they want it secure after business hours or when you know, whatever that would be and.

2335
04:08:57.420 --> 04:08:58.350
Michael Jensen: it's an employee only.

2336
04:08:58.770 --> 04:09:02.010
robert thibodeau: It was gated and it was locked one last employee left.

2337
04:09:03.900 --> 04:09:07.260
robert thibodeau: I don't think they have a problem with that, I think unmanned.

2338
04:09:09.870 --> 04:09:12.660
robert thibodeau: parking lot it's really, really, what they're they're worried about.

2339
04:09:13.710 --> 04:09:15.780
robert thibodeau: So if you if you wrote something you know.

2340
04:09:17.760 --> 04:09:22.800
robert thibodeau: gated lock closed after after business hours, I think that would sort of get at the.

2341
04:09:24.330 --> 04:09:27.210
robert thibodeau: You know or employee parking only mean the front of his.

2342
04:09:27.240 --> 04:09:31.470
robert thibodeau: oil company a couple signs up then turns into a free for all to.

2343
04:09:31.560 --> 04:09:38.220
Michael Jensen: irrelevant it's an employee only parking with a security gate that is locked.

2344
04:09:39.600 --> 04:09:40.860
Michael Jensen: outside of business hours.

2345
04:09:41.310 --> 04:09:53.940
jim murez: So let's do this guys before we try and second guess this we have Steve was representing the neighborhood he's still here, and he has his hand up let's ask him this question Steve you want to go ahead and unmute yourself.

2346
04:09:54.780 --> 04:09:55.230
Steve Bradbury: or thank.

2347
04:09:55.440 --> 04:09:57.300
jim murez: You are unmuted go ahead, your hand is up.

2348
04:09:58.020 --> 04:10:02.940
Steve Bradbury: So yeah so The bottom line is the parking issue is about.

2349
04:10:03.480 --> 04:10:12.540
Steve Bradbury: No public access if it's purely for employees on during business hours, whatever employees need to be there and there's no other access and there's.

2350
04:10:12.810 --> 04:10:19.380
Steve Bradbury: security around there no art installations, they talked about no bike racks know any access to the public.

2351
04:10:19.740 --> 04:10:25.830
Steve Bradbury: That would address at least part of the issue, they are bigger issues around the station around the whole project.

2352
04:10:26.310 --> 04:10:36.210
Steve Bradbury: Because there's been no communication from the city since 2017 and they if you read the letter that came that was written.

2353
04:10:37.200 --> 04:10:45.780
Steve Bradbury: on behalf of a couple of my neighbors by Claire baranovsky who filed with the city, which is why that appeal hearings happening on I believe it's April 28.

2354
04:10:46.200 --> 04:10:57.210
Steve Bradbury: they've got all sorts of other issues around the around the project itself so there's a much bigger picture there, but in terms of this motion, if the board can support that this would be a.

2355
04:10:57.720 --> 04:11:10.530
Steve Bradbury: lot only for employees during business hours and secured otherwise is no and no reason for anybody else to go there that at least accomplishes a small part of what we're trying to get done.

2356
04:11:11.280 --> 04:11:17.550
jim murez: Okay, thank you so that answered that um does anybody want to.

2357
04:11:19.230 --> 04:11:30.630
jim murez: make an alternate motion to this that would basically say that the parking lot will be conditioned to only be for for the city employees.

2358
04:11:36.450 --> 04:11:38.490
jim murez: I don't see any hands rushing up to.

2359
04:11:39.090 --> 04:11:39.900
clark brown: Our hand is up.

2360
04:11:40.710 --> 04:11:43.890
jim murez: Oh, I can't see it i'm sorry i'm maybe i'm on the wrong screen.

2361
04:11:44.550 --> 04:11:45.630
Michael Jensen: there's actually three hat.

2362
04:11:45.840 --> 04:11:47.520
jim murez: there's three yeah you know what it.

2363
04:11:47.520 --> 04:11:48.480
jim murez: Because i'm trying to.

2364
04:11:48.510 --> 04:11:53.280
jim murez: More forehands okay so so let's take this in the order of.

2365
04:11:54.150 --> 04:11:55.950
Michael Jensen: The three lawyers have all raised their hands.

2366
04:11:55.980 --> 04:11:58.710
jim murez: yeah you know and that scares me, what can I say.

2367
04:12:00.360 --> 04:12:07.350
jim murez: Clark go ahead, do you want to rewrite this, but it would have to be brief Clark, we don't want to go into a 75 page document here.

2368
04:12:07.680 --> 04:12:16.110
clark brown: I think it should be postponed and and rewritten there's some problems with this in the second one, it says, send a letter doesn't say to send a letter to who who's.

2369
04:12:16.500 --> 04:12:23.160
clark brown: who's to be the recipient of a letter and then it'll last two lines, it talks about issues of concern to the residents in the area.

2370
04:12:23.880 --> 04:12:39.000
clark brown: Where the concerns I think the group has to or the people there have to reach a consensus as to exactly what the issues are and then has to be part of the motion and the motion obviously has to specify who has to be the recipient of the letter.

2371
04:12:39.270 --> 04:12:39.930
jim murez: Thank you Clark.

2372
04:12:40.980 --> 04:12:42.870
clark brown: Is there is there any rush on this.

2373
04:12:43.020 --> 04:12:45.420
jim murez: yeah there is because it's happening in April.

2374
04:12:46.260 --> 04:12:54.300
jim murez: Thank you Clark, and I would I would have known who to send it to because it, this was something that actually came through transfer parking transportation.

2375
04:12:54.630 --> 04:13:02.520
jim murez: And that was discussed, and if you go back and watch the video you to it needs to be sent to it needs to be sent to the planning department and the Council office um.

2376
04:13:03.420 --> 04:13:08.880
robert thibodeau: I think I listed the agencies, when I made the agenda request to.

2377
04:13:09.240 --> 04:13:10.080
jim murez: it's possible.

2378
04:13:10.620 --> 04:13:18.120

04:13:43.140 --> 04:13:55.320
Daffodil Tyminski: No, I was just gonna say I, it seems as though, when this was submitted we didn't know all the concerns of the Community, but from the meeting tonight, it seems like we've sent them out, so why not, and then the motion to.

2389
04:13:56.400 --> 04:14:00.450
Daffodil Tyminski: You know, specifically address the will of our constituents right so.

04:14:16.350 --> 04:14:17.880
Daffodil Tyminski: That we not support.

2395

2486
04:20:43.950 --> 04:20:45.450
jim murez: Number 18.

2487
04:20:47.370 --> 04:20:48.870
Daffodil Tyminski: Margaret does have her hand up.

2488
04:20:49.230 --> 04:20:50.070
jim murez: Oh, she does.

2489
04:20:51.510 --> 04:20:52.020
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah.

2490
04:20:52.500 --> 04:20:53.460
jim murez: Do you want to call on her.

2491
04:20:53.640 --> 04:20:56.400
Margaret Molloy: yeah I can see it okay I didn't have the option.

2492
04:20:56.430 --> 04:20:59.100
Margaret Molloy: Usually can't see the microphone anyway.

2493
04:20:59.580 --> 04:21:02.100
Margaret Molloy: The reason I pull it is because.

2494
04:21:03.420 --> 04:21:12.750
Margaret Molloy: Just recently, that that girl turn tyranny with the butcher's daughter announced that she was opening a wine bar at that exact location.

2495
04:21:13.170 --> 04:21:23.430
Margaret Molloy: And here's an application by the property owner who bought it several years ago to take over the slot and you know change it to retail only.

2496
04:21:23.850 --> 04:21:36.780
Margaret Molloy: So she's opposing it and I want to know what the dynamic is like nobody would open a business without a lease if she has a lease, how can they file a CDP for change of views and like what.

2497
04:21:37.860 --> 04:21:50.100
Margaret Molloy: Who has been represented wrongly in the scenario so It just seems problematic to me that she just announced she opened this thing, so why is, why is it now subject to this.

2498
04:21:50.640 --> 04:21:52.560
jim murez: And i'd like to hear she here this evening.

2499
04:21:54.660 --> 04:21:57.210
jim murez: heather, just as you see a heather in the audience.

2500
04:21:58.050 --> 04:22:00.540
Daffodil Tyminski: No, I don't see a heather or Veronique.

2501
04:22:00.690 --> 04:22:01.560
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah okay.

2502
04:22:02.310 --> 04:22:10.500
jim murez: i'm gonna i'm going to leave this on consent, because I don't see don concept but i'm gonna leave this on de minimis because it's a down zone Margaret.

2503
04:22:10.890 --> 04:22:20.220
jim murez: And I if if she had a problem with it, if she didn't have a proper lease she would say something just because it's being sound on does doesn't mean it's going to happen overnight, they can.

2504
04:22:20.880 --> 04:22:21.600
Margaret Molloy: message it.

2505
04:22:21.810 --> 04:22:23.010
Margaret Molloy: She did oppose it and.

2506
04:22:25.260 --> 04:22:25.860
jim murez: She did.

2507
04:22:26.160 --> 04:22:26.580
yeah.

2508
04:22:27.870 --> 04:22:29.790
jim murez: mchale do you want to comment on that.

2509
04:22:30.030 --> 04:22:31.110
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I.

2510
04:22:31.260 --> 04:22:45.720
Michael Jensen: yeah I don't Margaret I don't believe heather came to that meeting, or I mean she never sent any opposition to it via email and didn't forget on this was on the 24th she wasn't at that meeting.

2511
04:22:47.220 --> 04:22:51.120
Daffodil Tyminski: um, so this is staff i'm sorry to speak out of turn but man when for.

2512
04:22:51.120 --> 04:22:52.200
jim murez: Sorry, no go ahead.

2513
04:22:52.800 --> 04:23:00.000
Daffodil Tyminski: I believe margaret's correct, I think the the lessee oppose this is the Council hearing.

2514
04:23:01.380 --> 04:23:12.540
Daffodil Tyminski: She did I don't know if she apparently pack or not, but I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't because remember this is one of many projects we had that were backlogged right that we had all the mail for that had never been addressed.

2515
04:23:13.080 --> 04:23:17.580
Daffodil Tyminski: Right, so I don't know that she would have known necessarily that this was on our vlc calendar.

2516
04:23:18.000 --> 04:23:21.540
Margaret Molloy: I have a record of her posting it sorry to butt in but you.

2517
04:23:21.540 --> 04:23:23.820
Margaret Molloy: Do okay wanted an explanation of.

2518
04:23:23.970 --> 04:23:27.930
Daffodil Tyminski: Why, I have this is a weird situation, I agree with Margaret this.

2519
04:23:27.930 --> 04:23:32.040
Daffodil Tyminski: is like really bizarre and maybe we least continue this to the next meeting.

2520
04:23:32.370 --> 04:23:45.630
jim murez: Well, wait wait wait before you do, that the public hearings already occurred, so if we want to make a statement on this, the the the report on the screen shows that the the hearing on this is already a month ago.

2521
04:23:45.870 --> 04:23:52.770
Daffodil Tyminski: I think they continued the public hearing for two months to figure out what was going on, because I think at the public hearing they had the same issue.

2522
04:23:53.280 --> 04:23:56.580
Daffodil Tyminski: Oh, where they were just so curious about why some.

2523
04:23:56.580 --> 04:23:57.210
Michael Jensen: So I.

2524
04:23:57.600 --> 04:24:05.130
Michael Jensen: yeah I mean this I honestly I thought I was like reading a typo when I saw this I would never imagine anyone would ever want to.

2525
04:24:06.810 --> 04:24:10.410
Michael Jensen: give up an alcohol entitlement to get a retail one.

2526
04:24:11.550 --> 04:24:15.000
Michael Jensen: I agree it's strange and the property owner.

2527
04:24:16.530 --> 04:24:18.300
Michael Jensen: is very likely doing this, you know.

2528
04:24:18.630 --> 04:24:26.010
jim murez: i'm gonna mchale let me cut you off i'm going to cut this off let's send this back to Lou Pack and can i'll let you sort it out there.

2529
04:24:26.340 --> 04:24:35.670
jim murez: The question is whether or not it's a de minimis letter or not we're not going to go into the details of the project clearly it's not de minimis because we've had enough discussion about it already.

2530
04:24:36.750 --> 04:24:37.050
jim murez: sent.

2531
04:24:37.980 --> 04:24:43.740
Michael Jensen: minimis in the sense that it is a you're always allowed to go down and got um.

2532
04:24:44.190 --> 04:24:56.400
jim murez: But let's let's let's have a fair hearing me if the if the applicant if markets correct that that the applicant opposed to a depth daffodil is agreeing that that happened, and we did not.

2533
04:24:56.400 --> 04:25:00.600
Michael Jensen: Have doubt I don't doubt that i'm just saying, she didn't she didn't show up to the loop.

2534
04:25:01.110 --> 04:25:03.030
jim murez: yeah let's find out if she was notified.

2535
04:25:04.740 --> 04:25:08.670
jim murez: Okay, so we're going to send that one back to loop back let's go on to number 18.

2536
04:25:10.470 --> 04:25:11.250
jim murez: um.

2537
04:25:12.270 --> 04:25:13.500
jim murez: Who took this one off.

2538
04:25:14.700 --> 04:25:17.940
jim murez: The change of a REC room to an 80 year, why do we have a problem with that.

2539
04:25:21.000 --> 04:25:27.240
Margaret Molloy: Is it the parking i'm just asking if there's adequate parking when a garage has changed to an ad.

2540
04:25:27.990 --> 04:25:43.980
jim murez: Well it's a got a Venice sign off so that would tell us that that city's already done their part to to allow it, and we really don't have any recourse to appeal it unless there's something special about it that you know that nobody else knows.

2541
04:25:45.060 --> 04:25:46.020
jim murez: they've looked at it.

2542
04:25:46.170 --> 04:25:47.550
jim murez: sit and read about an issue.

2543
04:25:47.910 --> 04:25:49.680
robert thibodeau: REC room not garage also.

2544
04:25:49.710 --> 04:25:51.330
Margaret Molloy: Actually, this yeah when I pulled.

2545

jim murez: Well okay so, then this one will leave on.

2546
04:25:56.100 --> 04:25:59.250
jim murez: So that one's getting a de minimis letter, the next one was.

2556
04:26:47.400 --> 04:26:48.630
Margaret Molloy: I asked for it, I don't know.

2557
04:26:49.110 --> 04:26:50.730
jim murez: Okay, I didn't write it down i'm sorry I.

2558
04:26:50.730 --> 04:26:52.590
Michael Jensen: reply, so this is not a new.

2559
04:26:52.590 --> 04:27:02.190
Michael Jensen: Construction of a single family home the single family home exists it's a garage conversion again, by definition, if it's a vso the parking is adequate.

2560
04:27:02.700 --> 04:27:15.000
Michael Jensen: Although the dnc or yeah the dnc and loop had previously past motions supporting removal of the parking requirements and other streamlining provisions to.

2561
04:27:17.670 --> 04:27:27.090
Michael Jensen: expedite convert creation of at us as additional units, but just by the fact that the vso has been assigned to it, it is parking compliant.

2562
04:27:27.510 --> 04:27:35.970
jim murez: yeah so that's that's not an issue here, Margaret we're going to leave 19 on also but I will know that we talked about it um.

2563
04:27:37.170 --> 04:27:43.860
jim murez: So now we're up to 26 and I think that was another one Margaret that you had a problem with.

2564
04:27:45.510 --> 04:27:47.100
jim murez: 406 rows.

2565
04:27:47.280 --> 04:28:07.920
Margaret Molloy: I had a question with it, is it removing 406 core feed from one of the units and a triplex and, if so, is the fourth unit and are so and why would that be allowed to reduce the size of a you know reasonably sized unit because none of them are big on that street.

2566
04:28:09.900 --> 04:28:27.120
Michael Jensen: be killed wow um I don't I said, I would say one you're assuming that the triplex is evenly divided among the 300 100 or what is it 3100 square feet, so it could be that you're dealing with.

2567
04:28:28.260 --> 04:28:31.050
Michael Jensen: You know, two, six or 700.

2568
04:28:32.100 --> 04:28:35.400
Michael Jensen: square foot places and a larger one that's getting reduced.

2569
04:28:37.860 --> 04:28:51.540
Michael Jensen: Again, that the based on the product description, this is getting carved out of the triplex not increasing any exterior walls Jim are you pulling up the plan in case.

2570
04:28:51.540 --> 04:28:55.350
jim murez: yeah I think it's just because i've got the video going at the same time it's taking time.

2571
04:28:56.700 --> 04:29:09.450
Margaret Molloy: So my question is, is it reducing the size of one reasonably sized unit to fail to benefit the developer to four units and with the fourth unit be a are so.

2572
04:29:09.990 --> 04:29:12.480
Michael Jensen: Well there's I think a few leaps there.

2573
04:29:14.700 --> 04:29:20.400
Michael Jensen: I don't know what the legal standard you're referencing is for reducing the size but.

2574
04:29:21.690 --> 04:29:28.110
Michael Jensen: I mean developer could be a homeowner's person that you know it could be a owner occupier, we have no idea.

2575
04:29:32.370 --> 04:29:32.940
jim murez: So that.

2576
04:29:33.000 --> 04:29:38.850
Michael Jensen: I don't know that that that bears on the land use component of this.

2577
04:29:39.750 --> 04:29:44.100
jim murez: So this is showing basically what's on the screen, you can see the screen right.

2578
04:29:44.520 --> 04:29:52.860
jim murez: This is basically showing that you have this unit back here, this is the one story unit, this is a two story unit, and then the Center they're creating this new one.

2579
04:29:55.560 --> 04:29:58.410
Margaret Molloy: Is that infill or it's a part of an existing in.

2580
04:29:58.470 --> 04:30:00.660
jim murez: yeah let's see if there's any more information about it.

2581
04:30:09.000 --> 04:30:13.350
Michael Jensen: I believe they're cutting it out of one of the units, but my might be incorrect.

2582
04:30:14.220 --> 04:30:21.270
Margaret Molloy: I don't know how you could do that as a two minutes I think you have to be able to answer those questions honestly.

2583
04:30:22.590 --> 04:30:26.700
jim murez: Well, it is a vso sign off so they clearly are complying with that.

2584
04:30:27.960 --> 04:30:30.120
jim murez: boy just went so big on assume side.

2585
04:30:34.770 --> 04:30:48.330
Margaret Molloy: I can honestly say after looking at hundreds and hundreds of vss through cpr is that a lot of them are absolutely inaccurate and shouldn't have been approved, so I don't take any of that as a guarantee of anything.

2586
04:30:49.020 --> 04:30:57.090
Michael Jensen: Well, I don't substitute my judgment, for the planning department officials that make these determinations that's outside of our.

2587
04:30:59.130 --> 04:31:00.300
Michael Jensen: delegated authority.

2588
04:31:01.440 --> 04:31:05.130
Margaret Molloy: I think you have to recommend that they comply with the law and the vss.

2589
04:31:05.160 --> 04:31:06.810
Margaret Molloy: specific wording for.

2590
04:31:07.260 --> 04:31:10.560
robert thibodeau: Talking over each other shouldn't we be supporting more units.

2591
04:31:10.620 --> 04:31:14.340
jim murez: Create yeah that's sort of where i'm wondering to why are we, why are we questioning.

2592
04:31:14.430 --> 04:31:16.050
jim murez: not supporting more units.

2593
04:31:16.170 --> 04:31:29.070
robert thibodeau: yeah I mean over and over again we've heard from people that they don't want big luxury units, they want smaller unit supporter more affordable units and after call it, you know designated what they're doing here but.

2594
04:31:30.210 --> 04:31:37.980
robert thibodeau: That we should be be producing these types of things and now when it comes in front of us and you know she's trying to.

2595
04:31:38.010 --> 04:31:43.410
jim murez: i'm with i'm with you, Robert let's move let's move on we've heard public comment on this we've discussed it.

2596
04:31:44.700 --> 04:31:48.990
jim murez: When is the hearing on this, the loop back hearing was three three.

2597
04:31:49.380 --> 04:31:54.240
Michael Jensen: There is no it's not a sign for oh I didn't see it assigned yet on the finding website.

2598
04:31:54.300 --> 04:31:55.170
jim murez: I didn't see.

2599
04:31:55.230 --> 04:32:03.900
jim murez: There either i'm Margaret I would say this is one that if you really have a problem with that you probably have to take it up there's no hearing date yet.

2600
04:32:04.710 --> 04:32:12.360
jim murez: I would say, you have to take it up with the planning department, I think i'm going to leave it on the de minimis letter at this point.

2601
04:32:13.200 --> 04:32:17.820
Margaret Molloy: Okay, just to tell you i'm on xena since 1955 So those are so unit.

2602
04:32:20.910 --> 04:32:21.450
jim murez: Okay.

2603
04:32:23.520 --> 04:32:26.280
jim murez: So they're making one smaller unit and and.

2604
04:32:27.750 --> 04:32:30.750
jim murez: Creating one new unit more people will be able to live there.

2605
04:32:31.950 --> 04:32:32.520
jim murez: I think.

2606
04:32:32.880 --> 04:32:33.570
Margaret Molloy: short term.

2607
04:32:34.800 --> 04:32:35.790
jim murez: I think we have.

2608
04:32:36.060 --> 04:32:43.350
jim murez: concluded so 17 will not be de minimis and the others, the other nine of them will be.

2609
04:32:44.430 --> 04:32:48.810
jim murez: And having said that, I think that moves us down to.

2610
04:32:50.610 --> 04:32:52.650
jim murez: A board officer comments.

2611
04:32:52.980 --> 04:32:55.170
Daffodil Tyminski: make a motion to that effect because we don't.

2612
04:32:55.230 --> 04:32:59.400
jim murez: We don't need to it was it was a consent item for.

2613
04:33:01.980 --> 04:33:03.570
jim murez: What do you call it de minimis letters.

2614

jim murez: Okay, so bored comment items, not on the agenda.

2623
04:33:38.520 --> 04:33:40.950
jim murez: Any officers have anything more to say.

2624
04:33:43.050 --> 04:33:44.730
jim murez: Anybody maybe, yes, no.

2625
04:33:45.450 --> 04:33:45.900

2629
04:34:05.340 --> 04:34:11.490
jim murez: You, as long as it's not something that's going to come before us, I mean you know you you don't want to.

2630
04:34:12.480 --> 04:34:24.120
jim murez: If it's something you want us to consider as a board motion, I think that you got to be careful, because if it's not on the agenda you're not supposed to there was this is this is procedural stuff This is like.

2631
04:34:25.470 --> 04:34:28.020
jim murez: Would you have for lunch today it's not the.

2632

jim murez: boards agenda.

2635
04:34:36.270 --> 04:34:50.760
clark brown: Well it's a it's a matter of some urgency, the city has purchased two hotels in westchester and those hotels are critical to us to solve our homelessness problem right now we've got.

2636
04:34:52.290 --> 04:34:57.300
clark brown: homeless people living on flowers street in front of residences on canal street.

2637
04:34:58.320 --> 04:35:05.820
clark brown: On electric and if we don't act quickly, these rooms may be assigned to other people and they won't be available.

2638
04:35:07.020 --> 04:35:26.130
clark brown: For us to use them can move these people away from the residences where they're currently located there's nothing in the Rules which says that the board cannot at this point, consider this resolution and decide whether it ought to be heard by a by the board later on short notice.

2639
04:35:27.720 --> 04:35:33.810
clark brown: there's nothing in the Rules that prohibits that and there's a there's a critical need to take advantage of the.

2640
04:35:34.920 --> 04:35:38.370
jim murez: Clark, let me interrupt you, we can't take a position on it tonight.

2641
04:35:38.730 --> 04:35:51.480
jim murez: No soonest we can take a position on it would be for you to submit an agenda request as soon as you get off this meeting, and it will land on my desk as soon as you push submit daffodil you have your hand up go ahead, please.

2642
04:35:51.900 --> 04:35:54.360

Michael Jensen: that's that's sorry.

2647
04:36:03.570 --> 04:36:05.010
Michael Jensen: Okay that's.

2648
04:36:05.190 --> 04:36:05.580
Anybody.

2649
04:36:06.750 --> 04:36:08.070
jim murez: anybody else.

2650
04:36:10.170 --> 04:36:12.630
jim murez: Seeing no additional hands.

2651
04:36:12.690 --> 04:36:14.550
clark brown: Jim can be heard yeah.

2652
04:36:14.640 --> 04:36:17.040
jim murez: Clark only if it's quick we can't speak out, we.

2653
04:36:17.070 --> 04:36:21.330
jim murez: cannot we cannot take action on items that are not on our agenda.

2654
04:36:21.540 --> 04:36:28.440
clark brown: But if I submit an agenda request that means emotion, to be heard on short notice will not be heard, for another month Is that correct.

2655
04:36:29.250 --> 04:36:37.530
jim murez: No that's not correct, if you want to make it urgent put in there that it's time sensitive there's a button there that says it's something important.

2656
04:36:37.980 --> 04:36:45.390
jim murez: And we can certainly discuss it offline if we need to have a special 24 hour meeting notice, we can do that, we can do an extra board meeting.

2657
04:36:45.840 --> 04:37:02.400
jim murez: We have a regular board meeting every third Tuesday, but that doesn't prohibit us from having additional meetings if additional meetings are needed the brown act requires 72 hours for a regular meeting, but it doesn't have to be a regular scheduled meeting.

2658
04:37:03.600 --> 04:37:12.030
jim murez: We can also have a 24 hour notice meeting so you have lots of opportunities, send in the agenda request if we need to do a straw boat.

2659
04:37:12.870 --> 04:37:20.940
jim murez: After you send it in to see if everybody could make it, we would need to have a quorum take action on it, we can do that too Okay, but we can't do it here tonight.

2660
04:37:22.350 --> 04:37:22.920
jim murez: Okay.

2661
