00:02:05.490 --> 00:02:14.910
Dominique Hirschkron: arenas on to yeah i'll see how it's not reacting immediately yeah it's too late it's just this is a zoom quirk sometimes you have to do it, a couple times.

30
00:02:15.660 --> 00:02:20.130
jim murez: And sometimes it means that the person, on the other end has not accepted.

31
00:02:20.970 --> 00:02:21.630

32
00:02:22.140 --> 00:02:24.060

00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:29.040
Dominique Hirschkron: yeah see where it says, Brian server will be rejoining as a panelist.

34
00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:36.150

36
00:02:46.740 --> 00:02:49.410
Dominique Hirschkron: Know Okay, initially, we asked her if.

37
00:02:50.880 --> 00:02:53.790
jim murez: She so you know i'm getting an ECHO i'm not sure why.

38
00:02:53.820 --> 00:02:57.900
Dominique Hirschkron: yeah i'm trying to see that so we're gonna mute on our side jam.

39
00:02:58.140 --> 00:02:58.800
jim murez: Well, so.

40
00:02:58.860 --> 00:03:01.110
jim murez: So we've Robin is in the same room.

41
00:03:01.530 --> 00:03:14.880
jim murez: Robin needs to turn off the audio output of her device, meaning the speaker and she also needs to mute her microphone she can keep her video running, but she can't keep the microphone or the speaker turned on.

42
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:24.300
jim murez: You can't have two on in the same room and so at this point, Dominique I cannot hear you because you are muted.

43
00:03:25.530 --> 00:03:31.290
jim murez: And as the host of the meeting you don't per the Chair of the meeting you want to keep your microphone turned off.

44
00:04:13.590 --> 00:04:15.210
Robin Murez: Reports panelists okay.

45
00:04:17.730 --> 00:04:18.090
Robin Murez: yeah.

46
00:04:18.330 --> 00:04:20.280
jim murez: So you something let's see if you're echoing anymore.

47
00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:42.870
Dominique Hirschkron: And it'll get picked up okay Jim can you hear me.

48
00:04:43.200 --> 00:04:44.700

00:04:48.930 --> 00:04:49.800
Dominique Hirschkron: Can you hear me.

52
00:04:50.190 --> 00:04:51.390
jim murez: yeah I can hear you.

53
00:04:52.470 --> 00:04:53.400
Dominique Hirschkron: there's an ECHO.

54
00:04:53.700 --> 00:04:54.690
jim murez: There is an ECHO.

55
00:04:55.080 --> 00:04:55.770
Dominique Hirschkron: yeah it's.

56
00:04:57.660 --> 00:04:59.040
Dominique Hirschkron: going to be different rooms.

57
00:04:59.070 --> 00:05:00.090
jim murez: You can only have one.

58
00:05:00.090 --> 00:05:00.720
jim murez: speaker.

59
00:05:00.810 --> 00:05:02.250
jim murez: And microphone per room.

60
00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:07.800
Dominique Hirschkron: Right okay so i'm maybe going outside to the garden, let me try one more thing.

61
00:05:12.570 --> 00:05:17.010
jim murez: Well, the if you and Robin are both on the same screen and microphone that's allowed.

62
00:05:18.180 --> 00:05:19.260
Dominique Hirschkron: Right, how is it.

63
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:21.300
jim murez: You could be sitting next to each other and.

64
00:05:22.440 --> 00:05:26.160
Dominique Hirschkron: sit next to me that's what I was saying yeah yeah.

65
00:05:26.370 --> 00:05:41.610
jim murez: yeah the only reason, the only reason to have her logged in is just for the zoom record that she was present at the meeting, but if the video is recording and they these meetings are all recorded so as long as she's visually on the screen it's not a problem either.

66
00:05:41.880 --> 00:05:45.960
Dominique Hirschkron: He wanted to navigate the screen sharing of the agenda was somebody else's on.

67
00:05:46.260 --> 00:05:51.600
jim murez: So then, they need to turn off the speaker on robins computer and turn off the microphone, which is good and that's fine.

68
00:05:51.960 --> 00:05:52.830
Dominique Hirschkron: Right, which I did.

69
00:05:53.130 --> 00:05:55.140
jim murez: Right once that's done there shouldn't be an ECHO.

70
00:05:55.650 --> 00:05:57.060
Dominique Hirschkron: I did and there's still an ECHO.

71
00:05:57.630 --> 00:06:00.690
jim murez: I don't hear much of an ECHO domini can you say something.

72
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:02.760

jim murez: So Dominique when you do your roll call each person of your committee has to respond verbally okay.

97
00:07:58.950 --> 00:08:07.740
jim murez: They don't have to have their camera on, but they have to respond verbally it's preferable if they have their camera because people like to know that the people are attending the meeting they're making the decisions.

98
00:08:08.250 --> 00:08:21.690
jim murez: But the required the legal requirement is that they have a verbal confirmation and they have to do that, whenever there's a boat as well all all boats have to be taken in roll call, meaning that you have to announce their name and then get their response.

99
00:08:23.070 --> 00:08:27.660
Dominique Hirschkron: Now Is there anyone else who's attending who needs to be promoted as a panel now.

119
00:10:41.280 --> 00:10:42.360
jim murez: So it all.

120
00:10:44.010 --> 00:10:50.910
jim murez: It all together, which is a final step you don't want to you don't want to remove somebody from the meeting unless they're being very disruptive and you've worn them.

121
00:10:51.300 --> 00:10:53.490
rita Obermeyer: Not to be once before.

122
00:10:55.830 --> 00:11:03.900
Dominique Hirschkron: In milk on that sure how to identify Sonia we can I can I she's gonna have to identify yourself okay all right.

123
00:11:05.430 --> 00:11:17.940
Dominique Hirschkron: Now so we've got two people who have called in, and if you identify yourself in the awesome that somebody is phone number ends in a 137 so when people don't have to.

124
00:11:18.060 --> 00:11:32.400
jim murez: Go so they can really identify themselves, other than what their phone number, the question that you want to be asking is are any of the people who are in the attendee list currently members of the committee, if so, please raise your hand.

125
00:11:32.880 --> 00:11:42.240
jim murez: And to raise their hand, they have to press star nine that's described in the introduction into introductory portion of your agenda.

126
00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:48.780
Dominique Hirschkron: that's if their phone call if they're if they're on a computer don't they raised their hand at the bottom of the screen.

127
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:53.520
jim murez: yeah they can raise your hand at the bottom of the screen if you're on a computer, but if they're on their cell phone they press star nine.

128
00:11:55.710 --> 00:11:57.930
Certainly, yes.

129
00:12:07.140 --> 00:12:13.020
Dominique Hirschkron: But you know, we do have a quorum and who are you how many people are you missing from your committee.

132
00:12:22.680 --> 00:12:25.530
Dominique Hirschkron: So I believe you know she's not a panelist.

133
00:12:26.160 --> 00:12:28.710
jim murez: You have five Members on your committee is that correct.

134
00:12:28.800 --> 00:12:33.120

325
00:35:17.370 --> 00:35:25.080

326
00:35:25.710 --> 00:35:46.380
Dominique Hirschkron: Our page on the website, be sure that you look at the supporting documents that we put up because there are some really excellent fascinating documents that address the tanga mood of peoples and and again we have that on the count on our preliminary.

327
00:35:47.730 --> 00:35:59.370
Dominique Hirschkron: Projects list and also black history is certainly involved in many of these projects and our whole objective is to be inclusive, so.

328
00:36:00.300 --> 00:36:15.300
Dominique Hirschkron: I for women really glad to see the participants that are here because that's how we can be inclusive, nobody knows everything, and we all want to go, I, for one, want to learn and want to bring.

329
00:36:16.200 --> 00:36:27.900
Dominique Hirschkron: History particularly history that's been forgotten to the public, I will want to clarify if you all look at our mission statement, this is not about.

330
00:36:30.450 --> 00:36:48.360
Dominique Hirschkron: Other issues, then really restoring and preserving our landmarks, so we cannot do everything, there are other big companies that will be addressing important issues but they're not like this committee will be addressing so.

331
00:36:49.020 --> 00:37:03.750
Dominique Hirschkron: So, for example, there is a dog park many, for there is a safety committee, there is a transportation Committee, please bring those issues and questions to those committees and here where we're going to see what we can do about.

332
00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:09.840
Dominique Hirschkron: Preserving landmarks that are otherwise in jeopardy.

333
00:37:11.850 --> 00:37:14.550
Dominique Hirschkron: So okay let's start with.

334
00:37:15.630 --> 00:37:16.470
Dominique Hirschkron: let's go to the.

335
00:37:18.330 --> 00:37:37.560
Dominique Hirschkron: Preliminary projects list and regarding that again I want to make it clear that this is a preliminary idea list and very open to suggestions everyone as to what you know the list should include can include.

336
00:37:39.300 --> 00:37:44.190
Dominique Hirschkron: I will say it does, it does not include the formation sharp any other.

337
00:37:45.720 --> 00:37:48.810
Dominique Hirschkron: entities, but we are totally.

338
00:37:49.950 --> 00:37:54.270
Dominique Hirschkron: Fine, to see what we can do to preserve things so i'm eat chicken.

339
00:37:58.260 --> 00:38:05.370
Dominique Hirschkron: I would say just let me do that all right okay right, you have I will bring it out, you know where to find you.

340
00:38:08.400 --> 00:38:10.650
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay, so i'm just going to start by.

341
00:38:11.730 --> 00:38:12.690
Dominique Hirschkron: The first item.

342
00:38:12.750 --> 00:38:23.550
Dominique Hirschkron: I know, preserving public places list is a small undertaking it's to recreate it advocating original canals.

343
00:38:24.720 --> 00:38:25.500
Dominique Hirschkron: We didn't look at it.

344
00:38:27.210 --> 00:38:27.780
sense.

345
00:38:30.930 --> 00:38:31.410
Williams Makers: yeah.

346
00:38:32.580 --> 00:38:34.500
Dominique Hirschkron: I would say i'm asked everyone.

347
00:38:36.360 --> 00:38:36.780
Dominique Hirschkron: hey.

348
00:38:37.920 --> 00:38:42.150
Dominique Hirschkron: Everybody please mute yourselves until you're actually going to speak.

349
00:38:43.980 --> 00:38:58.530
Dominique Hirschkron: yeah that just took out to get trashed people on why dogs barking day right lane right so okay recreating are advocating canals I think what we'll do is we'll kind of run through this list give something of a description.

350
00:39:00.180 --> 00:39:12.360
Dominique Hirschkron: But let's not get into lengthy conversations what our objective is today is to introduce everyone introduce ideas and start kind of creating task forces.

351
00:39:13.290 --> 00:39:27.390
Dominique Hirschkron: There were a lot of things that Dennis deserves to have attention to, and so, if we can kind of run through our our preliminary projects list and then Okay, here it is.

352
00:39:28.950 --> 00:39:46.200
Dominique Hirschkron: And then we'll we'll form some task forces that is so maybe jot down on a piece of paper things that are of interest to you that you're going to want to participate in and we will then break down into smaller groups to try to see how we can get things done.

353
00:39:47.280 --> 00:39:49.950
Dominique Hirschkron: So the first one being recreated the Abbot kinney canals.

354
00:39:51.150 --> 00:39:58.860
Dominique Hirschkron: Some people say that's an outrageous pipe dream other people say Dennis has endured 100 years of.

355
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:11.400
Dominique Hirschkron: very expensive destructive out, you know aspect activities by the city of La so hey, why not see if we can undertake something that, while it could be very expensive would be awesome.

356
00:40:12.030 --> 00:40:20.760
Dominique Hirschkron: Maybe not everybody thinks that would be awesome, but I do, and many people do actually but lots of feedback on social media, saying they love that idea.

357
00:40:21.450 --> 00:40:32.430
Dominique Hirschkron: I will say that suggestions have been brought up to see if brainwaves could be created or partial areas might be.

358
00:40:32.850 --> 00:40:47.820
Dominique Hirschkron: made back into being waterways or maybe, for you know we closed down streets for events make them walking streets are so there are any number of ways to kind of investigate this concept.

359
00:40:48.930 --> 00:40:54.420
Dominique Hirschkron: Environmental this environmentalists have said they are strongly in favor of this because it would help with.

360
00:40:55.530 --> 00:41:06.210
Dominique Hirschkron: Issues of sea level rise, and this was you know, originally a wetlands, so there are a lot of pluses some people have been concerned at where where is everybody going to park.

361
00:41:07.320 --> 00:41:23.820
Dominique Hirschkron: So there are lots of aspects of this that need to be investigated, and I think it would be really cool, though, what we are hoping, is that we could and create a Charrette have some dialogue going people with different expertise can bring their ideas for it so.

362
00:41:25.980 --> 00:41:32.940
Dominique Hirschkron: And you may also want to bring in the portland transportation committee and even with that yeah absolutely and work with the other committees yeah yeah.

363
00:41:33.690 --> 00:41:39.360
Dominique Hirschkron: um okay so that's that first idea, and what I will say though we're not really.

364
00:41:39.780 --> 00:41:46.770
Dominique Hirschkron: Well i'm just going to run through these but also if somebody has something they feel like should be said, right now, I guess, raise your hand but.

365
00:41:47.160 --> 00:41:53.610
Dominique Hirschkron: Otherwise we'll at the end after I run through all of them will then raise our hands and and have more discussion.

366
00:41:54.390 --> 00:42:10.350
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay, so the second one that we have on the list and again, these are in no special border is to create a Park, maybe department of record parks and come to sing grand canal, and the red car bridge, that is, between North and South, Venice boulevard.

367
00:42:12.360 --> 00:42:20.760
Dominique Hirschkron: Those are national historic monuments already the bridge has not been recognized.

368
00:42:22.020 --> 00:42:22.560
Dominique Hirschkron: It.

369
00:42:23.640 --> 00:42:32.940
Dominique Hirschkron: In no way would detract from any other projects that are proposed by the city or otherwise.

370
00:42:34.350 --> 00:42:50.670
Dominique Hirschkron: I have spoken directly with the Department of planning about this, and what they say is this section is considered the public right of way and the developers drawings that show it completely entombed in stone, which is.

371
00:42:52.050 --> 00:43:01.740
Dominique Hirschkron: Contrary to what the coastal Commission will permit and contrary to any kind of note it has people would fall in the way they designed it, there is no bear.

372
00:43:02.550 --> 00:43:17.370
Dominique Hirschkron: So what I will brown told me his disregard what the drawings are for that portion they are not pertinent, that is not the design for this section, so please let's not address.

373
00:43:18.630 --> 00:43:28.710
Dominique Hirschkron: That project, it is not relevant to this proposal, the third item is incorporating could use well Please pay.

374
00:43:29.730 --> 00:43:34.080
Dominique Hirschkron: increase incorporating historic preservation into the Venice Community plan.

375
00:43:36.720 --> 00:43:48.300
Dominique Hirschkron: and told this would be really important to do I don't personally, have a lot of knowledge of the Venice Community plan Brian I think you may be able to help us with that others as well.

376
00:43:50.010 --> 00:43:55.770
Dominique Hirschkron: And you know, perhaps, people who know about the Community plan, my understanding is that.

377
00:43:57.150 --> 00:44:07.170
Dominique Hirschkron: The Community plan is going to I guess replace what we've all known to be the vendor specific plan so untold that it's it's going to be.

378
00:44:07.950 --> 00:44:20.970
Dominique Hirschkron: A document that the city will rely on going forward and we just want to put in there, wherever we can or should indications that we don't want our neighborhoods destroyed we don't want our.

379
00:44:22.500 --> 00:44:35.550
Dominique Hirschkron: You know our historic public historic places to be destroyed so we'll see how that needs to be done, and again totally invite people with an expertise in.

380
00:44:37.380 --> 00:44:42.360
Dominique Hirschkron: Knowing about the planning the the best Community plan to please.

381
00:44:43.380 --> 00:44:50.820
Dominique Hirschkron: Help us doing that task force could use well, please for again I wouldn't bother with that yeah that's that's totally perfect.

382
00:44:53.160 --> 00:44:58.650
Dominique Hirschkron: So the next one is addressing our historic.

383
00:45:00.060 --> 00:45:19.080
Dominique Hirschkron: Police and jailhouse building and it is, it was what built it was the first I think police station built in in western oh it's the first i'm sorry I don't have like notes in front of me it's like the only art DECO and West side it's a really awesome building.

384
00:45:21.300 --> 00:45:32.730
Dominique Hirschkron: Duty baka spark have been the tenants of it for many years and Judy does fabulous work she is a muralist who was created the La river project.

385
00:45:33.180 --> 00:45:55.650
Dominique Hirschkron: And it's a huge building that many people have through the years have thought it has tiny rooms and it has big room and while we no way want to curtail the use by spark, it is a one of our only city on buildings.

386
00:45:56.670 --> 00:46:10.230
Dominique Hirschkron: The, we know that there's a lease on it for just $1 a year and that it is then to be it can be sub least to nonprofit organizations that.

387
00:46:11.610 --> 00:46:19.530
Dominique Hirschkron: You know, and I think that we would all love to see you know, instead of artists losing their spaces, as has happened because rents have gone up.

388
00:46:20.850 --> 00:46:35.070
Dominique Hirschkron: Because they were in private buildings like on sunset and instead of, say, our historic archives being in high hiding in storage facilities that have been known to have fires.

389
00:46:36.240 --> 00:46:41.220
Dominique Hirschkron: That you know, maybe, those are a couple things and also when we can start meeting in person, there are lots of groups that.

390
00:46:42.390 --> 00:46:54.570
Dominique Hirschkron: want to have, whether it be small meetings or maybe larger that it would be awesome to be able to have access to this our largest you know, an awesome.

391
00:46:55.350 --> 00:47:08.880
Dominique Hirschkron: Historic building so it's completely just open a you know, the opportunity for the Community to to share and see how we can do that in a very positive way.

392
00:47:10.590 --> 00:47:24.030
Dominique Hirschkron: Next project saving the Tokyo station and installing it in centennial park and we noted there that it could be an Olympics info booth and gallery and actually that's something regarding.

393
00:47:25.380 --> 00:47:27.720
Dominique Hirschkron: The the jail and.

394
00:47:28.830 --> 00:47:33.570
Dominique Hirschkron: And a number of projects, you know the Olympics are to be coming to Los Angeles.

395
00:47:34.680 --> 00:47:41.910
Dominique Hirschkron: We you know need to showcase Venice and need to showcase our multicultural heritage and.

396
00:47:42.960 --> 00:47:43.950
Dominique Hirschkron: These are.

397
00:47:45.150 --> 00:47:47.580
Dominique Hirschkron: Again, public places that.

398
00:47:48.660 --> 00:48:00.660
Dominique Hirschkron: i'd love to investigate whether with the notion that the Olympics are coming Perhaps that will give an opportunity for the SAP funding to become available and for.

399
00:48:01.530 --> 00:48:15.030
Dominique Hirschkron: permits to be able to be issued it's typical that when Olympics come to cities that a tremendous amount of improvements are made so that might be a way that we could save this is a building that.

400
00:48:15.630 --> 00:48:25.800
Dominique Hirschkron: is currently located, you can see it from the back alley next door to lemonade so it's like the to the side of air one.

401
00:48:26.910 --> 00:48:45.420
Dominique Hirschkron: It looks like a little pagoda shaped building it was built in 1905, I think, and it was identified by survey la as being the original Tokyo station which was a short line.

402
00:48:46.620 --> 00:48:48.210
Dominique Hirschkron: trolley car station.

403
00:48:49.980 --> 00:48:52.860
Dominique Hirschkron: I received an email from.

404
00:48:53.910 --> 00:49:12.090
Dominique Hirschkron: The heritage museum folks saying that they don't believe that that is accurate, it may not have been the actual Tokyo station because perhaps that was on Venice boulevard, but it certainly was some kind of ticketing booth and it certainly and as they commented that it is.

405
00:49:13.980 --> 00:49:20.970
Dominique Hirschkron: it's the right vintage and the right style and I know that they were trying to.

406
00:49:21.480 --> 00:49:33.300
Dominique Hirschkron: save it and put it into centennial park and we're not able to do that successfully I believe that's because of funding issues, so my thought is again, perhaps.

407
00:49:33.870 --> 00:49:44.490
Dominique Hirschkron: Knowing that the Olympics are coming maybe we can help get that done and do it, you know when, in a way that again would be wonderfully beneficial to the Community.

408
00:49:46.110 --> 00:49:54.690
Dominique Hirschkron: there's a note here about increasing the sidewalk so that we can have access to centennial park again centennial park is.

409
00:49:55.920 --> 00:50:19.980
Dominique Hirschkron: slated to have both the heritage museum and the Venice flying carousel and again we're not dealing with other projects in this meeting, but we can try to enable our community to have to appreciate our historic landmark okay next up restoring the Windward colonnade.

410
00:50:21.210 --> 00:50:34.650
Dominique Hirschkron: That too is a project that will the historical society has worked on and others through the years on, despite having historic designation some of the columns were destroyed so.

411
00:50:36.720 --> 00:50:50.400
Dominique Hirschkron: We would like to see there were originally just along Windward I think 60 columns there are now maybe 20 we'd love to see how if it's possible to have some of those restored and.

412
00:50:51.780 --> 00:51:03.990
Dominique Hirschkron: again make you know, bring back some of the fantastic architecture that has been in our public places next please so pagodas this is.

413
00:51:05.220 --> 00:51:27.600
Dominique Hirschkron: My foot stride this is to restore the pagodas along the boardwalk they were designed by Gregory Ain, who is a renowned architect, and thank you, and they they're in disrepair they need shingles they need spires and a new paint and.

414
00:51:28.860 --> 00:51:29.730
Dominique Hirschkron: We.

415
00:51:30.930 --> 00:51:35.910
Dominique Hirschkron: just want to see that we can get that done some preliminary discussions have indicated that.

416
00:51:37.170 --> 00:51:44.520
Dominique Hirschkron: that's probably happening that record parks has repaired them in the past and done so, in keeping with historic.

417
00:51:45.210 --> 00:51:59.640
Dominique Hirschkron: design, but we need to verify that they are this time, there has also been talk at times of destroying them and or painting them in wild ways and again, these are some of our iconic.

418
00:52:01.320 --> 00:52:06.480
Dominique Hirschkron: architectural elements that I think we should try to see that we preserve.

419
00:52:07.740 --> 00:52:13.620
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay next up is what numbers, eight and nine kind of go together.

420
00:52:14.670 --> 00:52:17.310
Dominique Hirschkron: They are creating historic markers.

421
00:52:18.930 --> 00:52:40.560
Dominique Hirschkron: And or some sort of you know, public art that brings out the stories of public places in Venice and these could be signs that have qr codes on them that have GEO tracking that let people then do their own walking tours or.

422
00:52:41.700 --> 00:52:52.470
Dominique Hirschkron: You know just indicate some kind of might be as something as small as a little tiny circle plaque that we put on all the public places, we can in our.

423
00:52:54.330 --> 00:53:12.300
Dominique Hirschkron: supporting documents they're actually numbers pointing documents that already give you information on some of these project ideas and that's equal been shared with us or don't know if it's up yet where it's coming up a list of we have a number of Betsy can you say how many.

424
00:53:13.860 --> 00:53:17.190
Dominique Hirschkron: sites are already designated historic.

425
00:53:17.490 --> 00:53:19.350
Dominique Hirschkron: 18 okay.

426
00:53:19.740 --> 00:53:28.530
Dominique Hirschkron: 18 so we've got 18 sites that are public and dentists, that are already identified as being historic and what we also have.

427
00:53:29.670 --> 00:53:32.670
Dominique Hirschkron: Three or four historic districts in Venice.

428
00:53:34.260 --> 00:53:42.210
betsygoldman: Yes, according to surveys, La on North than a speech millwood and the last one is canals.

429
00:53:43.470 --> 00:54:04.020
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay, and then I know a lot of people are going to say what about awkward and absolutely What about awkward and so again that's something you know this committee, in whatever ways we can we will see what we can do to respect and appreciate our multicultural heritage.

430
00:54:06.030 --> 00:54:11.790
Dominique Hirschkron: So okay moving along Oh, and regarding what these tours might be, it could be.

431
00:54:13.140 --> 00:54:20.910
Dominique Hirschkron: The obvious things architecture tour black history historic homes could also be contemporary homes.

432
00:54:21.540 --> 00:54:42.570
Dominique Hirschkron: Jeff Hoffman had done a document years back of fantastic contemporary architects who had you know all built homes here, it could be the beat poets arts movies rock and roll Jeffrey stanton has put up fantastic information shared it on the web and then in his books that.

433
00:54:44.310 --> 00:54:53.790
Dominique Hirschkron: brings out a lot of that information if we can let's you know, try to have a clearinghouse so that people can actually find all this information easily and again if the Olympics are coming.

434
00:54:53.970 --> 00:55:05.910
Dominique Hirschkron: we'll have a lot of people coming, we have a lot of tourists already from around the world, and we have a lot of people growing up in the Community or moving here who will take pride and do in in our cultural heritage.

435
00:55:08.280 --> 00:55:17.010
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay next was to create a cohesive design for when we're circle, this too is going to be a.

436
00:55:19.170 --> 00:55:21.000
Dominique Hirschkron: Big topic to address.

437
00:55:22.050 --> 00:55:34.920
Dominique Hirschkron: So, of course, the weather is now when we're traffic circle was wetlands in the days of the tanga It then became.

438
00:55:36.810 --> 00:55:39.240
Dominique Hirschkron: The Blackberry It then became.

439
00:55:40.860 --> 00:55:53.220
Dominique Hirschkron: Abbot kinney Center of Venice of America with fantastic roller coasters and on the banks of it, and many of you know, and if you don't let's all learn.

440
00:55:53.730 --> 00:56:06.420
Dominique Hirschkron: Fantastic you know activities we're going on in when word circle in it is still, then our hub where we've had the post office and we're going to get to that one because.

441
00:56:07.530 --> 00:56:10.680
Dominique Hirschkron: They are too we have or his history so.

442
00:56:11.910 --> 00:56:22.950
Dominique Hirschkron: Actually Betsy again shared a document that is in our projects are documents that are shared on the rv nc page that.

443
00:56:24.900 --> 00:56:29.760
Dominique Hirschkron: includes in 1988 ideas for.

444
00:56:30.870 --> 00:56:50.670
Dominique Hirschkron: Improving Venice areas and it just struck me I glasses, the big document, but it has great ideas in there and like one of them is, we could just widen the sidewalks and reduce the roadway and make it green or there mean right there you know we might be able to do something that is.

445
00:56:51.900 --> 00:57:13.620
Dominique Hirschkron: A much more desirable, safe and beautiful and historic kind of perspective, but you know, there are lots of ideas are always been ideas of having fountains there and and sculptures and so to address it in some sort of cohesive manner seems appropriate okay moving to the next one.

446
00:57:14.820 --> 00:57:19.590
Dominique Hirschkron: Creating a historic designation resource and that.

447
00:57:21.690 --> 00:57:31.050
Dominique Hirschkron: I know when I first moved here, I wanted to see how you know why things were just crumbling or how.

448
00:57:31.470 --> 00:57:42.720
Dominique Hirschkron: One could go about getting historic designation for one's own home or as we've mentioned, maybe four districts that don't now have it, and I will say I have heard that.

449
00:57:43.110 --> 00:57:51.150
Dominique Hirschkron: Again, there are a number of different groups around dentists, that are focusing on different aspects of things I spoke with Naomi Nightingale I think she's working on.

450
00:57:52.140 --> 00:58:06.300
Dominique Hirschkron: Specifically black history and awkward and I totally want to coordinate with all groups and see how we can preserve our our neighborhoods.

451
00:58:07.440 --> 00:58:24.300
Dominique Hirschkron: And again, within the bounds of what this committee can do, we will do what we can and because we're a dnc ad hoc committee if we can help another organization with something that is within our scope, please bring it up and let's see what we can do.

452
00:58:25.980 --> 00:58:33.300
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay, so the next is the truck arrows monument, and this is a project that was brought up.

453
00:58:34.470 --> 00:58:44.310
Dominique Hirschkron: During co bid normally public art or monuments are vetted through the Department of cultural affairs, meaning the Community.

454
00:58:45.480 --> 00:58:46.800
Dominique Hirschkron: has a chance to.

455
00:58:47.910 --> 00:59:02.970
Dominique Hirschkron: give their thoughts opinions you know positive negative it didn't happen it went straight through and got voted on by City Council it's it's all about recognizing.

456
00:59:04.440 --> 00:59:08.880
Dominique Hirschkron: Mexican workers who built the railroad system of California.

457
00:59:09.960 --> 00:59:11.730
Dominique Hirschkron: That is of course awesome.

458
00:59:12.780 --> 00:59:29.370
Dominique Hirschkron: We mentioned it here, because this sculpture would stand only about five feet tall according the renderings that have been provided publicly and to be in the middle of Windward circle, it would be dangerous it's what's called a.

459
00:59:32.370 --> 00:59:45.330
Dominique Hirschkron: nuisance I would it would the pumping station right one says underneath but oh and attractive nuisance, is when you put something in a space that is going to draw people to it in a way that will.

460
00:59:45.720 --> 01:00:07.380
Dominique Hirschkron: create greater problems or dangerous, so the city has always said that that's a traffic circle and you can't have people running across it so this seems like a and that circle was always again some kind of waterway so to, whereas we have two locations that are fantastic.

461
01:00:09.000 --> 01:00:10.260
Dominique Hirschkron: railroad or.

462
01:00:10.290 --> 01:00:14.160
Dominique Hirschkron: We didn't have reliable index, we had the sorry.

463
01:00:16.080 --> 01:00:21.120
Dominique Hirschkron: We had the trolley cars, but we do have the original trolley car bridge.

464
01:00:22.470 --> 01:00:30.990
Dominique Hirschkron: On that, as boulevard that would be awesome to, we need to recognize it this going, together with it would be, I think a great way to.

465
01:00:32.910 --> 01:00:39.570
Dominique Hirschkron: bring out that story in a way that people will embrace it and be able to take selfies, together with the sculpture.

466
01:00:40.530 --> 01:00:59.520
Dominique Hirschkron: or in centennial Park, where the railroad tracks are laid in the pavement there when they built centennial park they did it specifically to commemorate that the red line trolley car ran through the park and so Those are two sites that would be totally safe and appropriate for.

467
01:01:00.870 --> 01:01:11.970
Dominique Hirschkron: people being able to have access and enjoy a sculpture, that is important, you know brings out an important story in our history, again, it was like okay so on to the next.

468
01:01:13.620 --> 01:01:22.530
Dominique Hirschkron: One what we have a lot to me yeah what time is it, and this is a you know sort of an introductory meeting so again what we're going to do is break down into.

469
01:01:23.550 --> 01:01:28.080
Dominique Hirschkron: You know task forces after this to pursue, you know projects.

470
01:01:29.280 --> 01:01:44.040
Dominique Hirschkron: Later okay restoring the existing canals bridges, so we have you can see in this picture, there you know there's been damaged, to the bridges, I think it might be because of skateboarders.

471
01:01:45.180 --> 01:01:48.540
Dominique Hirschkron: Perhaps it's you know cars that fly over them at times.

472
01:01:50.400 --> 01:02:12.960
Dominique Hirschkron: And there is a Venice canals association, I know that they have not been able to get the city to do some of these repairs over repeated requests, through the years so again, these are historic landmarks that because of the history, maybe this committee can help to bring attention to it.

473
01:02:14.460 --> 01:02:25.740
Dominique Hirschkron: Mark galanti is on the zoom i'm really pleased about that mark is the head of the Venice canals association and he knows a lot about their he.

474
01:02:26.400 --> 01:02:37.170
Dominique Hirschkron: emailed me after we sent out information about this there there any number of issues with the canals, which are again historic that need to be addressed and.

475
01:02:37.530 --> 01:02:46.770
Dominique Hirschkron: we've not been able to get city attention so if we can again let's see if we can so it's kind of like kind of like bringing the you know saving the.

476
01:02:48.840 --> 01:02:59.070
Dominique Hirschkron: Tokyo station, if this committee can address things in a different way that could get attention that we've never been able to get it could save historic landmarks that so far, we haven't been.

477
01:02:59.490 --> 01:03:02.790
Dominique Hirschkron: You know let's look at it from different perspectives and see what we can do.

478
01:03:03.570 --> 01:03:15.150
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay, the next one, I would encourage you, because I think neighbor committees dressing so Okay, I did it for nate with it yeah oh Darrell do face on this yeah so yeah and darryl I know you're very knowledgeable in these things so.

479
01:03:16.530 --> 01:03:26.760
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay, this next one, is to build a tongass shade structure in Venice Park, this is a photograph of the shade structure that's over in Playa vista.

480
01:03:28.110 --> 01:03:28.800
Dominique Hirschkron: and

481
01:03:30.390 --> 01:03:40.830
Dominique Hirschkron: The again Betsy government shared with us it's on our projects or however you call it list on the web page.

482
01:03:42.420 --> 01:03:45.870
Dominique Hirschkron: I didn't know there is a there was a.

483
01:03:46.890 --> 01:03:52.110
Dominique Hirschkron: A timeless settlement all along Venice boulevard along Lincoln boulevard.

484
01:03:53.640 --> 01:04:04.620
Dominique Hirschkron: near admiralty it's really large I have, I have never known that there is certainly nothing visible that most of us drive by there.

485
01:04:05.220 --> 01:04:11.010
Dominique Hirschkron: I think that's something that we should look into if not looking at other sites as well um.

486
01:04:11.850 --> 01:04:29.790
Dominique Hirschkron: I you some of you know my mosaic balls there's always a tonka ball, I think our our history, you know of genocide and slavery is just it's got to be addressed and in a positive way, something like this shade structure, I think, is a beautiful.

487
01:04:30.810 --> 01:04:37.170
Dominique Hirschkron: element that would draw people's attention and can then bring out great stories that we all need to learn and share.

488
01:04:38.550 --> 01:04:50.580
Dominique Hirschkron: And Okay, then I think we're getting to the last one, we have on our list right now again, this is our preliminary idea list is to restore public access to the.

489
01:04:51.930 --> 01:04:52.230
Dominique Hirschkron: works.

490
01:04:53.520 --> 01:04:57.480
Dominique Hirschkron: works project act mural by every biberman.

491
01:04:58.530 --> 01:05:19.980
Dominique Hirschkron: That was that is titled the story of Venice and was in our original old post office on when we're in circle forever until that building was sold a few years back to a movie producer who then resold it in December I just discovered.

492
01:05:21.150 --> 01:05:23.220
Dominique Hirschkron: And i've been in touch with the.

493
01:05:25.140 --> 01:05:36.420
Dominique Hirschkron: executor of the trust of the biberman she didn't even know that was sold again that mural is still owned by the post office, it is a public historic.

494
01:05:37.710 --> 01:05:59.070
Dominique Hirschkron: Fantastic piece of artwork and I think that we should see if at all possible that we could get public access again again the Olympics are coming you know, there are good reasons that we might be able to draw attention to getting access to that at this time, so that's the run through.

495
01:06:00.750 --> 01:06:12.900
Dominique Hirschkron: Where we are on our agenda, then so you might want to if anyone has any comment or yet you know I would be mindful, how long the meeting is yeah that one hour now.

496
01:06:13.920 --> 01:06:17.310
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay, so why don't we try to take public comment.

497
01:06:18.570 --> 01:06:20.730
Dominique Hirschkron: Again, please be.

498
01:06:22.740 --> 01:06:32.070
Dominique Hirschkron: open and understanding, this is our very first meeting, we want to get dialogues started let's look for positive ways to.

500
01:06:40.350 --> 01:06:46.980
Dominique Hirschkron: I could probably skip number eight now until you've identified the projects Okay, you know what I mean sure they're all going to have different switches.

501
01:06:47.430 --> 01:06:57.270
Dominique Hirschkron: And exactly this free ranging conversation that doesn't get you anywhere and then focus on the task force for stuff yeah and so are you comfortable taking a phone.

Dominique Hirschkron: Call okay.

503
01:07:01.230 --> 01:07:11.790

504
01:07:12.930 --> 01:07:33.720

507
01:07:44.640 --> 01:07:58.140
Dominique Hirschkron: Well, or, if you want to say which task forces, you might like to be on and then you know discussion can be held, like in smaller groups so that we can move through things.

508
01:07:58.710 --> 01:08:08.430
Eileen Bryant Archibald, Save Venice: Well i'm not going to commit to the sub Task Force, I will participate in those as I can, with my current schedule.

509
01:08:09.570 --> 01:08:33.240
Eileen Bryant Archibald, Save Venice: As long as i'm informed, I will participate in as many as I can so i'm just going to move through okay as a family member with john ferraro frank bryant the red car all always went from La to Venice i'm a stakeholder, not just in business, but all over the place, and I think that.

510
01:08:34.290 --> 01:08:40.290
Eileen Bryant Archibald, Save Venice: We also need to talk about what's wrong with the canals and the money spent.

511
01:08:41.610 --> 01:08:59.100
Eileen Bryant Archibald, Save Venice: We also need to stop denying that oakland park is a historical monument and that park should be reserved for our Community and our children to play without dogs, we have several dog parks.

512
01:09:00.210 --> 01:09:02.130
Eileen Bryant Archibald, Save Venice: The also the with the.

514
01:09:26.850 --> 01:09:42.120
Eileen Bryant Archibald, Save Venice: So Sentinel park really should be the trend Carol monument, that is what we all voted for and the Venice carousel is supposed to be in front of the library not anywhere else.

518
01:09:53.130 --> 01:10:03.720
Eileen Bryant Archibald, Save Venice: And as far as the Olympics go I participated with delta Sigma theta in the 80s, when we have the Olympics coming teaching our headstart children.

519
01:10:04.110 --> 01:10:24.180
Eileen Bryant Archibald, Save Venice: And i'm telling you right now, if we're going to capitalize on the Olympics, I really don't want to be a part of that because I think we need to preserve our city, stop the gentrification and stop capitalizing on those that are less misfortune from the wealthy Thank you.

520
01:10:24.840 --> 01:10:33.930
Dominique Hirschkron: Thank you, thank you, I mean Okay, a spark art is that Carlos and again we're not wanting to remove spark at all.

521
01:10:34.110 --> 01:10:36.780
SPARC ART: let's make that clear hi everyone can you hear me.

522
01:10:36.870 --> 01:10:37.500
Dominique Hirschkron: Yes, thank you.

523
01:10:38.010 --> 01:10:49.830
SPARC ART: All right, thank you so much um you know, I think, really, I have a better understanding of of what this committee is looking to do I think what we could do as a partner is advised and how.

524
01:10:50.250 --> 01:10:56.910
SPARC ART: One approaches the use of public space how one engages and collaborates with organizations and members of the Community.

525
01:10:57.420 --> 01:11:10.320
SPARC ART: That have a long standing place in that space, I think you know some of the triggering points that I am picking up on especially around the language of how this has communicated is that you're separating.

526
01:11:10.800 --> 01:11:27.210
SPARC ART: The Organization, the institution of spark from the building itself this this building is no longer a jail, we have to let that go, it is operating as a rich cultural hub.

527
01:11:27.600 --> 01:11:41.460
SPARC ART: Not only for Venice, not only for the artists that live in our neighborhood who work out of our space, but also for all of Los Angeles, as the Center and it's actually recognized nationally as a major public art institution.

528
01:11:43.620 --> 01:11:55.560
SPARC ART: it's been recently recognized by the melon foundations monuments project for the importance, in its role in recovering the history of PFC and Los Angeles.

529
01:11:55.890 --> 01:11:58.710
SPARC ART: So, really, we invite you all to just engage with us.

530
01:11:58.740 --> 01:12:08.160
SPARC ART: Okay, so i'm going to extend an invitation to kind of expand your notion of what's going on at spark but we really want to advocate for this item to be removed Okay, we want.

531
01:12:08.610 --> 01:12:13.140
SPARC ART: This item of the historic menace jailhouse completely removed from this list.

532
01:12:13.410 --> 01:12:19.050
SPARC ART: And then we will share with you all, what we're doing with beyond Baroque and Pacific residency theater.

533
01:12:19.380 --> 01:12:33.180
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay Thank you so much, thank you you're seven yeah and again we don't want to annihilate the history of the time that people nor of abbott kenny's decade, you know period within the.

534
01:12:33.780 --> 01:12:59.370
Dominique Hirschkron: Building was built and we don't want to eliminate sparks presence there, there is room for all of us to coexist, and to respect all of our heritage, our multicultural heritage and and to presently make you know Venice have a more welcoming place for all.

535
01:13:01.110 --> 01:13:04.620
OK, we have a hand raised by lydia ponce lydia.

536
01:13:07.140 --> 01:13:09.810
Lydia Ponce: All right, i'm gonna make this under two minutes, thank you.

537
01:13:09.990 --> 01:13:11.130
Lydia Ponce: we're doing how to recruit.

538
01:13:11.790 --> 01:13:19.080
Lydia Ponce: How to Okay, a minute and a half, how to recreate the canals what environmental groups have approved of this This is absurd, you didn't even list any.

539
01:13:19.500 --> 01:13:26.190
Lydia Ponce: The bridge the bridge for a historical monument not the church not Westminster church, not the women's club on sixth street.

540
01:13:27.180 --> 01:13:39.480
Lydia Ponce: The incorporating of the Venice Community clan and having silveira decides he's definitely part of the problem of the gentrification of Venice, in the last 30 years spark will not be touched.

541
01:13:40.140 --> 01:13:45.480
Lydia Ponce: On saying that now spark in the building and everything they're doing there will not be a would not be.

542
01:13:46.770 --> 01:13:57.000
Lydia Ponce: erased in any shape or form and kudos to you you've got one thing right the Tokyo Japanese American monument at least have some people representing.

543
01:13:57.360 --> 01:14:00.840
Lydia Ponce: The families that suffered the removal and moved to manzanar.

544
01:14:01.380 --> 01:14:10.380
Lydia Ponce: And the the the Windward circle i'm going to add that you need to remove the black statue the torso that has a headless arm this legless torso of a woman.

545
01:14:10.710 --> 01:14:24.540
Lydia Ponce: This advisory committee ad hoc committee will not have the pleasure of erasing and thinking that you're going to give permission to what is multicultural your language is dripping of racism and superiority.

546
01:14:24.780 --> 01:14:26.370
Lydia Ponce: You might not be white supremacist.

547
01:14:26.400 --> 01:14:27.690
Dominique Hirschkron: But you are superior.

548
01:14:27.960 --> 01:14:31.500
Lydia Ponce: yeah you know what i'll see you next month and we're going to form our own ad hoc.

549
01:14:32.040 --> 01:14:33.210
Dominique Hirschkron: cool let's do.

550
01:14:33.240 --> 01:14:33.690
Lydia Ponce: Thank you.

551
01:14:33.960 --> 01:14:34.980
Lydia Ponce: yeah no against.

552
01:14:34.980 --> 01:14:49.050
Lydia Ponce: You against you, not in the line lineman not in peace and love and what you deem important as Venice, you should have lost the bios on your committee, you have nothing Mexican on this particular list.

553
01:14:49.740 --> 01:14:52.470
Dominique Hirschkron: Thank you lydia we'd like to meet with you and continue that.

554
01:14:52.530 --> 01:14:53.970
Lydia Ponce: No i'm not going to meet with your long.

555
01:14:56.310 --> 01:15:05.040
Dominique Hirschkron: OK so again, we are really trying to approach this in a very positive way, and we encourage everyone to do so as well.

556
01:15:05.460 --> 01:15:16.560
Dominique Hirschkron: And we're not perfect and we think, though, that the time has come when all of these things that are crumbling could be addressed so let's see how.

557
01:15:17.100 --> 01:15:32.100
Dominique Hirschkron: that's possible, we have not gone into detail that's where you know, this is a starting point, this is not an end point Okay, thank you and holly reese holly from the.

558
01:15:33.780 --> 01:15:37.320
Dominique Hirschkron: heritage from the heritage you seen holly.

01:15:37.770 --> 01:15:38.640
Hallie K Reiss: hey hi.

560
01:15:39.750 --> 01:15:51.540
Hallie K Reiss: Okay, great um so I just wanted to say a couple of things, first of all, and probably, this is the biggest point i'm sitting through the.

561
01:15:53.610 --> 01:15:55.500
Hallie K Reiss: All of the projects that you have.

562
01:15:56.880 --> 01:15:57.810
Hallie K Reiss: up so far.

563
01:15:59.640 --> 01:16:12.120
Hallie K Reiss: You know it's I i'm speaking for the museum's so i'm not going to say anything too personal, but we are we've we've made our fundraising.

564
01:16:13.980 --> 01:16:25.260
Hallie K Reiss: A proposal or we've gotten our fundraising for the year last year, which was incredible and we work, really, really hard for that and we are now doing exhibitions where.

565
01:16:26.670 --> 01:16:37.920
Hallie K Reiss: we're doing exhibitions at every single event that we're a part of which is maybe once or twice a month, if not more um and we, the Museum has essentially.

566
01:16:38.730 --> 01:16:55.680
Hallie K Reiss: In the last several months gone from a concept to a real thing where we're whether or not the our proposal isn't already to the city and we are continuously talking to them about how better to.

567
01:16:57.240 --> 01:17:01.590
Hallie K Reiss: improve the park, so that the park is i'm talking about centennial Park, of course.

568
01:17:03.210 --> 01:17:07.530
Hallie K Reiss: But we're we're our train is, though, is moving.

569
01:17:09.090 --> 01:17:11.670
Dominique Hirschkron: So that's already a minute um.

570
01:17:12.090 --> 01:17:12.420
Okay.

571
01:17:14.040 --> 01:17:14.400
Dominique Hirschkron: holly.

572
01:17:14.640 --> 01:17:16.380
Hallie K Reiss: Let me just finish up with saying that.

573
01:17:17.520 --> 01:17:28.410
Hallie K Reiss: You know a lot of the elements that are being talked about right now are things that the Museum has already been working on as well, including walking tours including.

574
01:17:29.100 --> 01:17:49.350
Hallie K Reiss: reaching out into various places in the Community, so I would encourage everybody to look into the museum and talk to us, because these are things that we're already doing, we already have systems in place and volunteer we have an army of volunteers and we want nothing more, but.

575
01:17:49.380 --> 01:17:51.060
Hallie K Reiss: to serve the Community.

576
01:17:51.270 --> 01:17:52.110
Dominique Hirschkron: Thank you, thank you.

577
01:17:53.640 --> 01:18:08.220
Dominique Hirschkron: So, again yeah our whole objective is to bring us all together, there are a number of groups around dentists, who are working on aspects of things and we don't want to.

578
01:18:10.350 --> 01:18:15.390
Dominique Hirschkron: What we want to do is see if we can like bring everybody together through the years.

579
01:18:16.320 --> 01:18:21.660
Dominique Hirschkron: What heritage has you know went into arbitration with historical I mean we don't want to.

580
01:18:22.050 --> 01:18:41.400
Dominique Hirschkron: Go that route, with anybody let's make this a positive experience, where let's come together and yeah you guys have started doing some excellent exhibits, and so there are ways that we can all help to make it all, better okay next mark it welcome good morning.

581
01:18:43.770 --> 01:18:45.840
Mark Galanty: Thank you, I thank you guys, first of all.

582
01:18:47.040 --> 01:18:57.630
Mark Galanty: I love this I think it's great what you guys are doing and I love the list, I will work on everything personally list I love medicine, I love our historical places.

583
01:18:58.740 --> 01:19:01.920
Mark Galanty: So I want to thank you all for serving and working on this.

584
01:19:03.270 --> 01:19:10.230
Mark Galanty: I want to talk about the canals, a real briefly, but so you know, first of all, the bridge repair supposedly Kristen.

585
01:19:10.650 --> 01:19:17.790
Mark Galanty: Has this on the engineering list, but I don't know I haven't got any updates on that, but there are some other issues with the canals that.

586
01:19:18.630 --> 01:19:33.570
Mark Galanty: I think are actually more concerning such as we have a leak that the city can't figure out why are the water is going and why it's disappearing at a foot what a day we've got, of course, global warming and the flooding of the canals.

587
01:19:34.710 --> 01:19:49.170
Mark Galanty: And then we have the serious issue with the streets are emptying in the canals during the rains polluting the canals polluting the lagoon polluting our ocean and there's a there's a great opportunity to possibly build a water.

588
01:19:50.280 --> 01:19:54.690
Mark Galanty: stormwater cleaning thing which the city of Santa Monica just did and rows.

589
01:19:55.650 --> 01:20:00.930
Mark Galanty: And culver city just did on color boulevard where they do a big collection Center for the storm water, and then they.

590
01:20:01.500 --> 01:20:09.570
Mark Galanty: They clean it, and then they empty it to the ocean or or the storm drain system, and you know that that could exist, for example in the.

591
01:20:10.080 --> 01:20:17.910
Mark Galanty: Venice median there's prop own money there's federal money for this kind of project, which would clean the water clean water for canals.

592
01:20:18.390 --> 01:20:25.770
Mark Galanty: mean the water for the blue lagoon and for the ocean, so that would be something I would love for the Community consider and then.

593
01:20:26.340 --> 01:20:37.560
Mark Galanty: Also, I was, I was told that there's an issue with the bridge over the blue lagoon I don't know if we would go that far east but the blue lagoon bridge needs some help as well.

594
01:20:38.610 --> 01:20:51.540
Mark Galanty: Because it's turned 226 years old and, as we all know, it's in the top 10 list of places that people visit So hopefully we can he can preserve it for forever so.

595
01:20:51.570 --> 01:20:52.110
Thank you.

596
01:20:53.130 --> 01:20:54.210

Dominique Hirschkron: color Indian 137.

01:21:09.630 --> 01:21:10.410
morning color.

600
01:21:21.390 --> 01:21:21.630
1310****137: yeah.

601
01:21:21.660 --> 01:21:23.580
Dominique Hirschkron: Thank you go ahead okay.

602
01:21:23.910 --> 01:21:28.590
1310****137: hi my name is Jose Gonzalez i'm on the committee member of the truck animals.

603
01:21:29.670 --> 01:21:32.490
1310****137: And I one, what are you getting out of this hi how you doing.

604
01:21:33.510 --> 01:21:41.550
1310****137: First of all, like to say first of all i'd like to find out what this committee is all about, and what it seems to me right now hopefully changes.

605
01:21:42.090 --> 01:21:55.590
1310****137: That are monument is designated for the winner's circle, and it seems like you're trying to get a transfer out of there, which is hard to believe, because we have been approved by the City Council and by Venice.

606
01:21:56.940 --> 01:21:59.910
1310****137: Venice committee back in 2021.

607
01:22:01.590 --> 01:22:16.470
1310****137: So I don't understand what's going on, we have a lot of support, we have a lot of backers we even have a lot of vintage committees with us, and I still don't understand why this Community this committee is about try to sabotage, something that we put hard work.

608
01:22:18.000 --> 01:22:32.970
1310****137: Please hope that you guys would change realize what you're doing this is going to benefit Los Angeles, has been big benefit Venice and the Olympics, I mean it's something that you guys got to think about Venice is a city that as many art artists.

609
01:22:33.540 --> 01:22:34.170
1310****137: Thank you very much.

610
01:22:34.740 --> 01:22:52.890
Dominique Hirschkron: Thank you very much yeah and actually that artist is absolutely a phenomenal artist wouldn't it be fantastic if we were to get one of his you know current contemporary pieces that would just be amazing and so again, we are fully.

611
01:22:54.000 --> 01:23:04.800
Dominique Hirschkron: in favor of having the true kairos monument let's do it in a way that safe, it was shocking, the way it was pushed through without having the customary.

612
01:23:05.550 --> 01:23:15.360
Dominique Hirschkron: vetting in the Community and by department cultural affairs so that's all let's do things that you know makes sense let's not be stomping on our.

613
01:23:16.260 --> 01:23:29.850
Dominique Hirschkron: Our roots on the native peoples who are here on you know it's not necessary, we can all coexist in a way that will make the Community much fuller and better so just a comment.

614
01:23:34.740 --> 01:23:39.000
I think we need to kind of end the public comments.

615
01:23:40.830 --> 01:23:45.660
Dominique Hirschkron: pretty soon that we have some more hands raised so we still have time okay 1117.

616
01:23:47.490 --> 01:23:50.100
Dominique Hirschkron: All right, let's keep going, then we are going with.

617
01:23:50.190 --> 01:23:51.330
Sonya: I have to leave.

618
01:23:52.680 --> 01:23:53.640
Dominique Hirschkron: Oh, Sonia.

619
01:23:55.380 --> 01:23:58.680
Dominique Hirschkron: Is there anything you want to mention before you leave in.

620
01:24:00.600 --> 01:24:01.980
Sonya: No, I.

621
01:24:03.450 --> 01:24:17.730
Sonya: I i'm enjoying listening to all the comments and I hear the other side of things um I think we need further discussion and especially some research on some of these issues.

622
01:24:20.460 --> 01:24:20.760
Sonya: and

623
01:24:21.870 --> 01:24:36.990
Sonya: Once on our list is very, very broad, so I think we can narrow it down and take one step at a time one project at a time and see if we can get some research on it and.

624
01:24:38.610 --> 01:24:42.000
Sonya: You know, make more informed decisions on these.

625
01:24:43.770 --> 01:24:45.840
Dominique Hirschkron: This is a starting point so.

626
01:24:46.860 --> 01:24:59.310
Dominique Hirschkron: that's good yeah and some projects could be quick and immediate and others are going to be long term and yeah so that's exactly what we're hoping to do so and Sonia.

627
01:25:00.810 --> 01:25:03.870
Dominique Hirschkron: I don't know who you think the other side is.

628
01:25:05.430 --> 01:25:24.720
Sonya: When like the last speaker, you know I hear his side by side and I, you know we've been working with the the safety side, since I work with children, and I know how they climb on monuments and they learn through touching, and so I understand the safety side and.

629
01:25:26.640 --> 01:25:27.330
Sonya: You know.

630
01:25:27.930 --> 01:25:35.610
Sonya: yeah it needs it, we need to come together and really work something out I also.

631
01:25:38.070 --> 01:25:39.540
Sonya: understand that.

632
01:25:41.370 --> 01:25:44.580
Sonya: The Latinos have a lot to do with building.

633
01:25:45.690 --> 01:25:46.230
Sonya: and

634
01:25:48.210 --> 01:26:07.260
Sonya: I don't know if the young people know how much the Latinos worked on announce on the red line and the canals existed longer than the red line it was there before the red line and they're there after the red line so you know it's a lot to be considered.

635
01:26:09.630 --> 01:26:20.400
Sonya: So anyway, I have to run to physical therapy, but I will attach and you can bring me up to speed later.

636
01:26:21.240 --> 01:26:22.350
Sonya: Thank you hi.

637

682
01:31:25.920 --> 01:31:26.400
betsygoldman: Can I say.

683
01:31:29.280 --> 01:31:30.810
Dominique Hirschkron: Somebody talking we're kinda.

685
01:31:39.420 --> 01:31:40.500
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay yeah okay.

686
01:31:42.600 --> 01:31:55.050
betsygoldman: hi Laura my name is Betsy Goldman and when we were talking about the monument I had a couple of things that came into my mind, and what I envisioned was.

687
01:31:56.730 --> 01:32:15.480
betsygoldman: Having the monument in a location where people can actually come and look at it and having a plaque having a plaque that describes a history of the monument so people can read about their heritage and be proud about it.

688
01:32:16.140 --> 01:32:31.350
betsygoldman: And maybe having benches, where people can sit and look at the monument and really take it in because that's not going to happen if it's in the Windward circle, people are not allowed to go there.

689
01:32:32.070 --> 01:32:45.600
betsygoldman: Pedestrians are not allowed to enter and if you haven't in a location in a park location it's a wonderful surroundings, a very serene surrounding and people can sit.

690
01:32:46.290 --> 01:32:57.300
betsygoldman: And look read the plaque and really appreciate where their ancestors came from, and I think that's more important than having it and when we're circle.

691
01:32:58.560 --> 01:32:59.430
betsygoldman: My peace.

692
01:33:00.630 --> 01:33:00.930
Dominique Hirschkron: Thank you.

693
01:33:03.960 --> 01:33:08.100
Dominique Hirschkron: Okay, we have a few more hands, we have color user number two.

694
01:33:09.150 --> 01:33:09.660
morning.

695
01:33:12.030 --> 01:33:12.930
calories or two.

696
01:33:16.350 --> 01:33:16.830
Okay.

697
01:33:19.980 --> 01:33:22.320
Call-In User_2: i'm the unhealthy person that so earlier.

698
01:33:23.370 --> 01:33:31.200
Call-In User_2: My email address is roofless through@gmail.com if I don't have a roof, because I live outside.

699
01:33:32.220 --> 01:33:43.830
Call-In User_2: I just wanted to again emphasize that in any meeting about public spaces any like residential Homeowners seats or anything should be balanced out by unhealthy people see.

700
01:33:44.880 --> 01:33:51.240
Call-In User_2: The downtown la neighborhood Council did not grant skid row there subdivision making this.

701
01:33:52.260 --> 01:34:02.610
Call-In User_2: Venice neighborhood Council been able to counter that represents the most unhealthy people in La oh it's really important that they have representation from Dennis and it's Committee, thank you.

702
01:34:03.180 --> 01:34:04.680
Dominique Hirschkron: Thank you so much you.

703
01:34:06.660 --> 01:34:10.590
Dominique Hirschkron: Did we already do color yeah and then we're all done with it okay.

704
01:34:12.030 --> 01:34:20.880
Dominique Hirschkron: Now, I think we are at the stage of the agenda where we'd like to get some feedback about a task for selections on.

705
01:34:23.040 --> 01:34:36.510
Dominique Hirschkron: yeah if people want to indicate which Task Force they might want to be on um you know I suppose it's something that can be done now, or you could you know, and you can put it in chat you could.

706
01:34:37.680 --> 01:34:38.250
Dominique Hirschkron: Put it.

707
01:34:39.720 --> 01:34:49.410
Dominique Hirschkron: You know, send it as an email there's an email through the venison see you know page that we have right and that's public places at Venice and c.org.

708
01:34:51.090 --> 01:34:59.640
Dominique Hirschkron: And you know, again, I think that there's a lot of people have raised concerns that really are not what we're addressing.

709
01:35:01.110 --> 01:35:08.940
Dominique Hirschkron: And so, please listen to what we really want to try to do and let's see what we can do in positive ways.

710
01:35:10.440 --> 01:35:19.530
Dominique Hirschkron: And I think, maybe that you know does anybody else on the committee, want to make any comments at this time.

711
01:35:22.290 --> 01:35:27.120
Dominique Hirschkron: Ryan let's see the bed, yes, on your left.

712
01:35:34.860 --> 01:35:35.820
Dominique Hirschkron: Brain can you speak.

713
01:35:38.790 --> 01:35:40.710
Brian Silveira: My gosh I suppose.

714
01:35:41.310 --> 01:35:44.730
Brian Silveira: yeah just need to unmute myself so um.

715
01:35:46.140 --> 01:35:48.930
Brian Silveira: I wanted to weigh in on the trick arrows monument and.

716
01:35:49.950 --> 01:36:00.030
Brian Silveira: You know this, this seems to be one of the more contentious things on the list, aside from spark you know I I don't really have an opinion about where it goes.

717
01:36:01.050 --> 01:36:14.250
Brian Silveira: But I will say that it seems to me like nobody is arguing that this is not a great monument that it shouldn't be in Venice, I think the conversation is just Is this the appropriate place for.

718
01:36:16.230 --> 01:36:36.210
Brian Silveira: And at first blush it seemed like when word circle would be a great place for it because soap visible, which is a good thing, but I do, I guess, after looking at it i'm actually looking in an aerial map of one word circle right now I do see that it could be a public safety issue.

719
01:36:37.830 --> 01:36:45.060
Brian Silveira: So, simply because there are no crosswalks the Windward circle, if it were going to go there, it wouldn't need a crosswalk but I don't even know the crossbar.

720
01:36:45.240 --> 01:36:48.360
Dominique Hirschkron: Or would need to be very large to be.

721
01:36:48.570 --> 01:36:54.990
Brian Silveira: Right, I was gonna say or right, it would need to be something so big and grand that it could be appreciated from a distance.

722
01:36:55.590 --> 01:37:03.570
Brian Silveira: But if I feet tall, I think it would just sort of disappear, and when we're at circle so anyway again i'm not.

723
01:37:04.380 --> 01:37:11.160
Brian Silveira: You know I want to say something else to about my participation on this committee so i'm really here to facilitate.

724
01:37:11.730 --> 01:37:22.590
Brian Silveira: I don't want to dictate because there are people on this committee, you have been in minutes for a lot longer there are people who are participating whose families have been in for a century.

725
01:37:23.190 --> 01:37:40.080
Brian Silveira: And then, those are the people who really should be you know controlling the conversation around what we should be doing so my role is just to be a tool that you guys can use to help get your projects come up, but I did I did just want to say that about the trick here as well, so.

726
01:37:41.670 --> 01:37:41.880
Brian Silveira: sure.

727
01:37:42.420 --> 01:37:53.010
Dominique Hirschkron: And, and I think um you know, to those who are listening whatever Ryan has tremendous expertise and is really helpful in being willing to work with the Community.

728
01:37:53.400 --> 01:38:09.660
Dominique Hirschkron: I haven't always liked it projects that he's doing but i'll tell you, he has totally invited the participation of the Community and caused developers to make radical changes, based on Community input that really helped to.

729
01:38:10.980 --> 01:38:17.310
Dominique Hirschkron: retain the character of our Community far better than it would otherwise be so.

730
01:38:18.540 --> 01:38:26.970
Dominique Hirschkron: You know, Brian knows how to get things done and we're are wanting to get things done, this is not going to be, if this is a committee that just chats i'm not on it.

731
01:38:28.110 --> 01:38:35.850
Dominique Hirschkron: And, and if this is a committee that has a lot of arguing i'm totally not on it, we want to get some positive things done.

732
01:38:37.740 --> 01:39:01.230
Dominique Hirschkron: So we do have a motion to bring up that came to our attention that it would be wise to do it right away because there might be some destruction, otherwise of historic landmark, and so I think dominic's going to try to put it up on the screen.

733
01:39:03.180 --> 01:39:05.850
Dominique Hirschkron: On your computer here I don't know what's on my desktop.

734
01:39:08.460 --> 01:39:11.430
Dominique Hirschkron: Here, do you want to read it, and I will try to pull it up yeah okay.

735
01:39:20.160 --> 01:39:21.630

Dominique Hirschkron: The pagodas motion pagodas an ocean front walk.

738
01:39:29.100 --> 01:39:37.950
Dominique Hirschkron: Whereas in the 1930s renowned architect Gregory he designed the iconic pagoda shade structure with seating on ocean front lock, and whereas.

739
01:39:38.460 --> 01:39:46.410
Dominique Hirschkron: All are in need of repairs, including placement replacement of shingles paints fires, and whereas the city may be considering.

740
01:39:46.860 --> 01:39:59.580
Dominique Hirschkron: painting repainting and the promoters with murals are tearing them down completely contrary to the integrity and appreciation of our beautiful iconic historic culturally architectural.

741
01:40:00.630 --> 01:40:08.370
Dominique Hirschkron: landmarks designed by a world renowned architect, and whereas the city has confirmed that they would be doing repairs, but it's not committed to the Venice neighborhood.

742
01:40:09.330 --> 01:40:17.610
Dominique Hirschkron: City Council city preservation public places ad hoc committee that it would maintain the historic integrity of the design, therefore, the Venice.

743
01:40:18.090 --> 01:40:26.850
Dominique Hirschkron: The motion would be that there for the Venice neighborhood Council request confirmation from the Department of recreation and parks, but the iconic pagodas and oceanfront walk.

744
01:40:27.120 --> 01:40:42.900
