40
00:09:28.650 --> 00:09:30.690
Daffodil Tyminski: Maybe next week i'm trying to.

41
00:09:32.010 --> 00:09:36.570
Daffodil Tyminski: just go up my schedule got thrown off with all kinds of different things so i'm trying to put the pieces back together but.

42
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:37.020
sure.

43
00:09:38.670 --> 00:09:41.670
Daffodil Tyminski: um so are you in for being over a rap.

44
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:43.380
Nicolas Hippisley-Coxe: Show.

45
00:09:43.800 --> 00:09:44.400
Okay, great.

46
00:09:52.830 --> 00:09:54.210
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm sorry i'm eating too I just.

47
00:09:56.910 --> 00:10:00.960
Daffodil Tyminski: We created like a new neighborhood breakdown.

48
00:10:02.790 --> 00:10:08.130
Daffodil Tyminski: With the hope that, on the neighborhood committee, we would have representatives from neighborhoods that truly reflect.

49
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:15.840
Daffodil Tyminski: The neighborhoods because the neighborhood committee description is so out of whack with how people actually live in Venice.

50
00:10:18.450 --> 00:10:24.120
Daffodil Tyminski: So, for example, there was no no REP nowhere was in with oakwood and millwood and Presidents row.

51
00:10:25.410 --> 00:10:27.840
Daffodil Tyminski: And i'm like that's kind of nuts they're very distinct neighborhoods.

52
00:10:30.330 --> 00:10:30.810
Daffodil Tyminski: um.

53
00:10:32.190 --> 00:10:38.970
Daffodil Tyminski: And then, along with that he that was part of the reason I wanted to do that is and Nick has known this Nick and i've talked about this for years.

54
00:10:41.370 --> 00:10:43.980
Daffodil Tyminski: is for a lot of the EP stuff organizing.

55
00:10:45.030 --> 00:10:55.680
Daffodil Tyminski: Right like if the neighborhood that's defined is totally out of whack and the REP is not really from the neighborhood there in then it's pointless to use the neighborhood committee is like an organizing mechanism.

56
00:10:58.050 --> 00:10:58.620
Daffodil Tyminski: That makes sense.

57
00:10:59.490 --> 00:11:02.550
Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, Okay, this is Yolanda and i'm.

58
00:11:04.020 --> 00:11:04.560

65
00:12:02.400 --> 00:12:04.830
Daffodil Tyminski: I can't do it myself, I have to have somebody else do it.

66
00:12:05.820 --> 00:12:06.840
Nicolas Hippisley-Coxe: Jim miras.

67
00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:11.490

68
00:12:14.820 --> 00:12:18.300

Daffodil Tyminski: All for different reasons, but pretty much most of them because we did not have permits in place before requesting funding.

151
00:21:56.250 --> 00:22:00.180
Daffodil Tyminski: Now, as far as I know, that's never been the requirement but.

152
00:22:01.770 --> 00:22:03.360
Daffodil Tyminski: You know what am I going to say.

153
00:22:05.340 --> 00:22:05.790
Daffodil Tyminski: Why.

154
00:22:06.210 --> 00:22:09.540
Yolanda Gonzalez: that's bs we've always gone through Community of.

155
00:22:11.910 --> 00:22:17.010
Yolanda Gonzalez: ideas and then we go through the we have the office yet us the permits oh.

156
00:22:17.040 --> 00:22:18.210
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I know.

157
00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:31.410
Daffodil Tyminski: You know it actually worked out because we had a lot of budget issues that have been resolved in the last week, but we didn't know exactly how much money we were playing with, and I think we probably wouldn't have had enough to find any way.

158
00:22:33.180 --> 00:22:38.640
Daffodil Tyminski: But I would still expect that we try to make them these projects go forward in different ways.

159
00:22:39.900 --> 00:22:40.200
Charles Rosin: and

160
00:22:40.230 --> 00:22:43.950
Daffodil Tyminski: We don't need to waste time today to talk about it but.

161
00:22:44.940 --> 00:22:47.100
Charles Rosin: Just a little clarity, if I can't have it oh.

162
00:22:47.340 --> 00:22:51.390
Charles Rosin: yeah just because the counsel's Office said no, it was done.

163
00:22:52.020 --> 00:23:00.690
Daffodil Tyminski: No, I mean I didn't reach out to my well the councilman his office our REP has been in transition, as you know, trust in laughs Isabella was coming on.

164
00:23:01.170 --> 00:23:09.030
Daffodil Tyminski: So we had we didn't have someone who was like fully focused on Venice, so I didn't ask them for permits because we hadn't identified where we wanted the signs yet.

165
00:23:09.750 --> 00:23:17.370
Daffodil Tyminski: But, as I told them part of the reason we haven't identified where the signs were because we didn't know how much funding, we were going to have so where would be putting them up like so.

166
00:23:17.640 --> 00:23:22.950
Daffodil Tyminski: it's it's a bit of a catch 22 and my understanding is the neighborhood committees gotten signs in the past.

167
00:23:23.250 --> 00:23:29.790
Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, yeah and been able to do it, so it wasn't even the councilman his office that.

168
00:23:31.050 --> 00:23:40.650
Daffodil Tyminski: took the opportunity to shut us down, it was the city there's like this back office Budget Office for neighborhood Councils and they just basically denied all of them.

169
00:23:41.970 --> 00:23:47.400
Yolanda Gonzalez: Who was the person that signed that sign that they signed us off from done.

170
00:23:48.960 --> 00:23:52.380
Daffodil Tyminski: that's a good question now there's like three different people.

171
00:23:53.430 --> 00:23:58.710
Daffodil Tyminski: um I don't know who made the decision on.

172
00:24:00.780 --> 00:24:06.750
Daffodil Tyminski: This the permit issue because I don't think the person that signs off for us is just like the interface.

173
00:24:06.870 --> 00:24:09.240
Yolanda Gonzalez: They don't really there is okay.

174
00:24:09.420 --> 00:24:11.430
Yolanda Gonzalez: um yeah I know i'll get on top of it.

175
00:24:11.520 --> 00:24:18.150
Daffodil Tyminski: I can, I can talk to you offline and go through my emails and figure out if we can figure out who the actual person was but I don't really know.

176
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:31.080
Yolanda Gonzalez: yeah there's politics going on coming on and the will we we don't know who get will be the mayor and who's going to be appointed to done we better make sure we get the right person in this time yeah.

177
00:24:31.560 --> 00:24:37.200
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah so anyway, I don't know if anyone has any other updates I it was.

178
00:24:38.040 --> 00:24:51.480
Daffodil Tyminski: You know, probably this month i'll reach back out to the Council Office now that Isabel is fully on board, I think they were overlapping until last Friday and now our new REP is Isabella maybe i'll ask her if she can come to next month's meeting.

179
00:24:52.020 --> 00:24:53.460
Darryl DuFay: Oh yeah.

180
00:24:53.730 --> 00:24:55.470
Darryl DuFay: yeah they're all here.

181
00:24:55.770 --> 00:24:56.340
Daffodil Tyminski: hi girl.

182
00:24:56.820 --> 00:25:12.330
Darryl DuFay: If you watch the Venice neighborhood Council meeting, the budget person starters that Andre whoever up he was over absolutely overwhelmed because he got all of these requests.

183
00:25:13.500 --> 00:25:19.050
Darryl DuFay: Just a few days before he was supposed to have it all done, he was really upset.

184
00:25:20.190 --> 00:25:20.490
Darryl DuFay: yeah.

185
00:25:20.880 --> 00:25:34.770
Darryl DuFay: I think he left for a while, in terms of the meeting, it was they did the right thing and and not approving any of them, because there was not a time to look at them and make a good decision.

186
00:25:36.750 --> 00:25:37.650
Darryl DuFay: that's all I have to say.

187
00:25:38.190 --> 00:25:48.450
Darryl DuFay: Okay, well, I will add another thing I wanna I notice there's three of us or four of us don't have pictures up Is there something i'm supposed to do, not that I have to look at myself.

188
00:25:50.790 --> 00:25:53.100
Daffodil Tyminski: There are you on your phone or you want to computer.

189
00:25:53.280 --> 00:25:54.390
Darryl DuFay: i'm on my computer.

190
00:25:54.870 --> 00:25:57.480
Daffodil Tyminski: So if you click on the zoom screen.

191
00:25:58.530 --> 00:26:01.890
Daffodil Tyminski: Right at the bottom left hand side, there should be a.

192
00:26:02.670 --> 00:26:03.720
Daffodil Tyminski: Little camera.

193
00:26:04.140 --> 00:26:04.710
And then.

194
00:26:05.850 --> 00:26:10.860
Darryl DuFay: The only thing I have at the bottom is mute and start video.

195
00:26:11.100 --> 00:26:12.270
Daffodil Tyminski: So start video is.

196
00:26:12.270 --> 00:26:13.230
Charles Rosin: Playing video.

197
00:26:13.410 --> 00:26:14.820
Daffodil Tyminski: is how you'll get on camera.

198
00:26:16.380 --> 00:26:17.160
Jeremy Loeb: Start video.

199
00:26:18.660 --> 00:26:20.160
Darryl DuFay: Well let's see.

200
00:26:21.690 --> 00:26:23.430
Jeremy Loeb: You are looking at you looking good.

201
00:26:24.120 --> 00:26:24.450
Darryl DuFay: And I.

202
00:26:25.680 --> 00:26:28.440
Darryl DuFay: wanna I don't want to look at myself I just hit that again.

203
00:26:28.500 --> 00:26:28.980
Charles Rosin: Right yeah.

204
00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:33.600
Darryl DuFay: exactly when you when you speak a cigarette you just.

205
00:26:34.410 --> 00:26:36.930
Darryl DuFay: My publicist the person below Thank you.

206
00:26:38.520 --> 00:26:39.570
Daffodil Tyminski: Great thanks Darrell.

207
00:26:41.220 --> 00:26:41.820
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah.

208
00:26:42.810 --> 00:27:00.690
Daffodil Tyminski: Now the other thing that we had talked about before was fema and I feel like Keith is here today Keith Harrison he's Chair of the resiliency Committee I think co chair with Nick from not like yes news Nick it was like hawks has joined us i'll talk about in a moment.

209
00:27:02.790 --> 00:27:16.950
Daffodil Tyminski: But maybe Keith I know fema wasn't maybe exactly what you were going to talk about but it's something we've been working on and i'd like to get back into and I figured since you're here, maybe we'll we'll touch on it a little bit sorry.

210
00:27:19.980 --> 00:27:20.460
Daffodil Tyminski: um.

211
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:27.120
Daffodil Tyminski: So you know let's if that comes up if it doesn't come up let's just talk about it at the end of the meeting.

212
00:27:28.290 --> 00:27:28.470
Daffodil Tyminski: or.

213
00:27:29.040 --> 00:27:29.910
Daffodil Tyminski: No, no problem.

214
00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:39.090
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, I don't want to blow by it, but I also want to Keith wants to talk about it give the floor to him first is not probably more knowledgeable about the issue than I am.

215
00:27:39.300 --> 00:27:40.440
And then we can circle back.

216
00:27:41.610 --> 00:27:51.870
Daffodil Tyminski: And last we had previously decided that we would try to have REPS from neighborhoods that really reflect the neighborhoods that are in Venice right and we broke out.

217
00:27:52.650 --> 00:27:58.620
Daffodil Tyminski: A couple different ones i'll bring the map back next month, I should have actually had it today, I just didn't think of it until now.

218
00:27:59.700 --> 00:28:07.980
Daffodil Tyminski: But to the end of trying to get a little more representation on the committee i've asked Nick hopelessly Cox who's been on the neighborhood committee before if you wanted to come on as our.

219
00:28:08.070 --> 00:28:08.820
roadmap.

220
00:28:10.590 --> 00:28:26.760
Daffodil Tyminski: And Nick graciously agreed so it's an extra person right, I have the ability to appoint more people than is in the bylaws so but I think it's good to have someone who's truly reflective of that neighborhood so as we start doing these things.

221
00:28:28.170 --> 00:28:35.370
Daffodil Tyminski: We start doing more things we've got someone in that part of Venice and then hopefully will flush out the rest of the neighborhoods in the next month or two.

222
00:28:37.590 --> 00:28:45.330
Daffodil Tyminski: So with that let's move to does anyone have anything else to report on I know you'll and I see your hand anyone else have anything on.

223
00:28:45.390 --> 00:28:50.640
Yolanda Gonzalez: You know it's just that I press the wrong button and I, my hand is up for the wrong reason.

224
00:28:50.910 --> 00:28:51.510
Daffodil Tyminski: Oh okay.

225
00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:53.760
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm.

226
00:28:54.840 --> 00:29:00.930
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, so let's move on to and, by the way, I can't see everyone's hand I think if you raise your hand it will.

227
00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:07.440
Daffodil Tyminski: pop you to the front and Sergio I see you're here click you here.

228
00:29:08.910 --> 00:29:19.590
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay let's go to um new business and he's so let me just give give you a little background Keith reached out to me.

229
00:29:19.950 --> 00:29:29.280
Daffodil Tyminski: As to whether the emergency preparedness and resiliency committee could work with us on outreach so that is they're doing programs and things like that.

230
00:29:29.760 --> 00:29:34.620
Daffodil Tyminski: And they obviously have a really great whole system in place to publicize their doings but.

231
00:29:35.100 --> 00:29:45.150
Daffodil Tyminski: You know, hopefully, we also do that in our own respective ways out of the neighborhood committee, so I thought this is something i've been wanting to do anyway it's a subject near and dear to my heart.

232
00:29:45.750 --> 00:29:57.510
Daffodil Tyminski: And I thought, maybe we could have Keith come on talk about what they're doing, and then we can chat about how we can help, and you know what other programs we think may be great in our neighborhoods so with that Keith take.

233
00:29:57.660 --> 00:29:59.550
Keith Harrison: The right steps adele thanks everybody.

234
00:30:01.470 --> 00:30:14.250
Keith Harrison: Just real quick background introducing me I lived in Venice for the over 40 years I have over 30 years in the emergency management field.

235
00:30:16.200 --> 00:30:25.080
Keith Harrison: 30 of that being in government service first from the state office emergency services, then the Los Angeles county office of emergency management.

236
00:30:25.650 --> 00:30:31.050
Keith Harrison: And over 30 presidentially declared disasters and whole bunch of other stuff that went bump in the night.

237
00:30:31.830 --> 00:30:36.840
Keith Harrison: And I retired and I while i'm consulting on the side i've always wanted to.

238
00:30:37.530 --> 00:30:55.980
Keith Harrison: work to make sure that Venice is in a situation to sustain itself during a disaster and recover after disaster, which is the essence of resiliency is the be able to bounce back and part of my reasoning is is seeing that communities do not do well in major disasters.

239
00:30:57.570 --> 00:31:05.610
Keith Harrison: The just to two points of example, the the town of paradise about three years ago had the horrible fire.

240
00:31:06.090 --> 00:31:07.230
Keith Harrison: And ran through.

241
00:31:07.770 --> 00:31:18.270
Keith Harrison: And now three years later, only 16% of the houses have been re occupied land that was owned by individuals has been gobbled up by.

242
00:31:19.440 --> 00:31:20.940
Keith Harrison: developers and other people.

243
00:31:22.170 --> 00:31:27.120
Keith Harrison: If you look at what happened to the Venerable communities following.

244
00:31:29.040 --> 00:31:38.250
Keith Harrison: Katrina you I had a colleague who was doing an after action investigation down at Alabama ran into a guy with a half full.

245
00:31:38.970 --> 00:31:46.950
Keith Harrison: suitcase full of money and he was going out to all the people who are in the poor neighborhoods and had lost their.

246
00:31:47.940 --> 00:31:56.550
Keith Harrison: their homes and was giving them cash and he was selling on going back to Florida after this is done to bring back and have a suitcase so again.

247
00:31:57.510 --> 00:32:08.730
Keith Harrison: If we want to have Community survive, we need to develop from the grassroots up a resiliency for that community, the government has got plans to to help you the best they can.

248
00:32:09.120 --> 00:32:19.080
Keith Harrison: But it's not necessarily going to be the way that is going to support there being a Venice, as opposed to a Venice del mar following any kind of major disaster.

249
00:32:19.530 --> 00:32:32.700
Keith Harrison: So that's the the goal the the idea there and it's so it's more than just put passing out leaflets about you know have your disaster kit that type of stuff well that's so very important you've got to start there.

250
00:32:33.330 --> 00:32:44.970
Keith Harrison: Really, we need to get then it's organized first at the block level than a neighborhood level and that, at a Community wide coordination level so that we can be partners with the responding.

251
00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:50.910
Keith Harrison: agency, give them information about how we're doing what we need, and also.

252
00:32:52.680 --> 00:33:07.170
Keith Harrison: Take their information and get that out to our neighbors someone who may be suspicious of government, but will trust us if we've we verified it and be in a better position to recover, to that end we've been doing even during the.

253
00:33:09.090 --> 00:33:15.060
Keith Harrison: pandemic shut down a series of training programs we've been working very closely with la city.

254
00:33:16.320 --> 00:33:29.970
Keith Harrison: Emergency Management department, we put on a probe town hall, we put on a program on ready or Los Angeles neighborhood, which is how you can work at the block level or with your neighborhood watch to.

255
00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:49.410
Keith Harrison: To build preparedness helping each other, have your own plan and then exercise it and we've also been working with an neighborhood training program team program which is out of the fire department and CERT programs we just recently had a bandage ng.

256
00:33:50.520 --> 00:33:55.440
Keith Harrison: Basic first aid class out here at at Mr far.

257
00:33:56.610 --> 00:34:07.080
Keith Harrison: What we are facing as well we're doing these things are getting the information out it's a two fold problem we're having difficulty getting Venice people to show up.

258
00:34:07.800 --> 00:34:16.800
Keith Harrison: we've used the the usual suspects, as far as posting things on websites and stuff we have our own Twitter site, please follow us at at.

259
00:34:17.940 --> 00:34:20.490
Keith Harrison: Venice CRC but.

260
00:34:21.720 --> 00:34:29.640
Keith Harrison: really want to get down to where people live, which is in the neighborhoods and work with folks to get the information out but also.

261
00:34:30.090 --> 00:34:44.340
Keith Harrison: Help organize and work with you guys, who are the neighborhood organizers per se and how we can get this message on and how we can get feedback and how to how to make Venice resilient so that's the.

262
00:34:46.380 --> 00:34:50.250
Keith Harrison: The the bit i'd love to hear back from you guys.

263
00:34:52.770 --> 00:34:55.680
Daffodil Tyminski: um I see checking on one of their hands raised.

264
00:34:58.530 --> 00:34:58.980
Daffodil Tyminski: What.

265
00:34:59.370 --> 00:35:00.270
Charles Rosin: Mine is August.

266
00:35:01.140 --> 00:35:02.850
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, all right, why don't you go ahead, Chad.

267
00:35:06.000 --> 00:35:10.110
Charles Rosin: I didn't I got a copy of I guess it was the.

268
00:35:11.250 --> 00:35:19.410
Charles Rosin: When they first started the the engineering department or this they just recently in April we're talking about sea level rise.

269
00:35:20.670 --> 00:35:24.180
Charles Rosin: I don't know if you saw that presentation.

270
00:35:25.710 --> 00:35:25.980
Charles Rosin: Let.

271
00:35:29.010 --> 00:35:41.220
Charles Rosin: What do you well, it was very interesting because it was all the departments things that you would know about well we're going to have a disaster let's get together and talk about it was the fire department, it was the various.

272
00:35:41.790 --> 00:35:57.360
Charles Rosin: Agencies, it was it was under the city and what was an inch of the county and what was interesting ross's that again i've been at one of those attributes of the business media now for six years and.

273
00:35:58.440 --> 00:36:08.970
Charles Rosin: I would like to bring the matter to your attention, are you still will send you the document, if I can get your email after that, because i'm interested in your opinion about is this good for starting in this.

274
00:36:09.840 --> 00:36:24.600
Charles Rosin: We feel that the City Council voted in favor of a business meeting six years ago, before that the exact property in question is is ground zero sea level rise in the entire account.

275
00:36:25.050 --> 00:36:35.700
Charles Rosin: So I wanted to get your if you're familiar with it, we would have talked about it but otherwise I would send it to you and would very much like your opinion before i'm out.

276
00:36:36.300 --> 00:36:47.910
Keith Harrison: I i'd be fascinated to see it I just did to clarify just to let you know, we had a town hall earlier this year, where we had representatives from emergency management department.

277
00:36:48.660 --> 00:37:07.980
Keith Harrison: We had Red Cross, we had lapd la fire department, we had multiple agencies explaining again how disaster preparedness works, how the city is organized now, this is an engineering report, you said, let me.

278
00:37:08.040 --> 00:37:13.380
Charles Rosin: Let me, yes, but it really could have been the same group you're talking about you.

279
00:37:16.290 --> 00:37:17.460
Charles Rosin: Can click off here and.

280
00:37:19.650 --> 00:37:23.970
Keith Harrison: If it's a document to for me to take a look at i'd be more than happy.

281
00:37:25.380 --> 00:37:25.920
Charles Rosin: Thank you.

282
00:37:26.460 --> 00:37:29.040
Keith Harrison: And I my my email is.

283
00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:32.460
Keith Harrison: Keith dot Harrison.

284
00:37:33.570 --> 00:37:36.390
Keith Harrison: At Venice nc.org.

285
00:37:43.260 --> 00:37:43.860
Charles Rosin: Venice.

286
00:37:44.430 --> 00:37:45.720
Keith Harrison: Venice nc.

287
00:37:46.200 --> 00:38:01.500
Keith Harrison: nc as a neighborhood council.org Thank you yeah anything so that I can always take a look at let you know, and it may be, it will lead us to make some phone calls and find out what what's going on but.

288
00:38:02.580 --> 00:38:03.450
Keith Harrison: But yeah Thank you.

289
00:38:07.050 --> 00:38:09.570
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks jack Yolanda did you want to speak on this topic.

290
00:38:09.750 --> 00:38:12.150
Yolanda Gonzalez: Yes, I do first of all.

291
00:38:14.190 --> 00:38:19.260
Yolanda Gonzalez: I want to find out if don's gonna open up for us to have our meetings back at our.

292
00:38:20.370 --> 00:38:23.670
Yolanda Gonzalez: At our usual place I think we're over this.

293
00:38:24.390 --> 00:38:28.470
Daffodil Tyminski: way let's talk let's let's just concentrate on case presentation from the mall.

294
00:38:28.980 --> 00:38:40.980
Yolanda Gonzalez: What i'm saying that's what I want to get to because the only way we're going to get people to participate and be aware of what's going on the emergency preparedness, you know that is when I was Vice President, we put on the first.

295
00:38:41.940 --> 00:38:55.710
Yolanda Gonzalez: Convention of emergency preparedness here, and at the Westminster, we had over 250 people attend that we had we had the all have representatives from the county show up zeb was on board.

296
00:38:56.190 --> 00:38:56.700
Yolanda Gonzalez: and

297
00:38:57.120 --> 00:39:08.310
Yolanda Gonzalez: We had a wonderful presentation regarding sea level rise and, in my opinion, I think we're we're we're not preparing I the fact that we're going to have sea level rise is.

298
00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:20.880
Yolanda Gonzalez: Is way way out the chances of us having it is way beyond what we need to do is prepare for earthquake or for fires fires is a very major thing that we're having right now in which.

299
00:39:21.990 --> 00:39:37.230
Yolanda Gonzalez: We need all the open space we can get and my yacht club was taking out food and water, because some of the people were stuck on the on the beach there and we were in some of our our voters were taking out.

300
00:39:37.710 --> 00:39:50.610
Yolanda Gonzalez: supplies to the people that were stuck on the beach out malibu at that time, when we had those big fires out in malibu so basically um, we need to prepare for a lot of things right now we have a very big drought.

301
00:39:51.180 --> 00:40:01.260
Yolanda Gonzalez: And the facts of having fires is more susceptible and having an earthquake and what do we do when an earthquake comes and we need you don't call 911 because nobody's going to response.

302
00:40:01.560 --> 00:40:17.880
Yolanda Gonzalez: So basically um I want to see that we reorganized, and and and stick to the facts because sea level rise, I have got a dinghy outside waiting for it to come to my house that's why I was imposed a $3,000 insurance policy for flood insurance.

303
00:40:19.500 --> 00:40:22.140
Yolanda Gonzalez: So basically, I just want to let you know that.

304
00:40:22.500 --> 00:40:33.090
Yolanda Gonzalez: In order to get people to respond we've got to have a place of meeting if we don't have those places in meetings people don't care they don't care even what's going on right now, as long as they're comfortable that they're not affected.

305
00:40:33.360 --> 00:40:37.590
Yolanda Gonzalez: they're fine, but if they're affected, then they start whining and crying and everything else.

306
00:40:37.740 --> 00:40:39.060
Daffodil Tyminski: Right well.

307
00:40:39.090 --> 00:40:45.480
Keith Harrison: As far as as far as done is concerned, we don't have any control over them they in fact.

308
00:40:46.920 --> 00:40:58.230
Keith Harrison: Have the city's attitude toward toward the level of preparedness we're talking about here in Venice is different than how the county treated let's say topanga.

309
00:40:59.250 --> 00:41:13.320
Keith Harrison: Which which actually is a model that we could follow as far as being a Community organized they're organized around a catastrophic fire situation because you say, which is a primary hazard and then also earthquake and flooding.

310
00:41:14.550 --> 00:41:23.790
Keith Harrison: For done simply is very happy to say pass out literature, but don't really do anything other than at the block level.

311
00:41:25.440 --> 00:41:29.100
Keith Harrison: You know that just simply isn't good and be good enough and we can't look to them.

312
00:41:29.940 --> 00:41:45.150
Keith Harrison: They so we're not in a position to say hey open up now, we haven't Thank you, we have been using pen more recently as a as a venue out in the out next to the parking lot where people can show up and actually do hands on.

313
00:41:45.720 --> 00:41:56.700
Keith Harrison: And we had a fairly nice turnout for the hands on damaging first aid thing, except that when I pulled the group most of the people were from mar vista.

314
00:41:57.690 --> 00:42:05.070
Keith Harrison: And only one person was from Venice so yeah, we need to find ways to get the Venice people to.

315
00:42:05.550 --> 00:42:15.420
Keith Harrison: You know now that we're starting to do face to face, and I agree with the Salon de face to face for this stuff is very important, we need to find a way to to to.

316
00:42:16.200 --> 00:42:28.050
Keith Harrison: REACH down and have them move to wherever we're going to be having this and if there's a better places to do it i'm all for it and, as far as hazard yes.

317
00:42:29.850 --> 00:42:42.300
Keith Harrison: The the the threats to Venice has earthquake, but we also have a significant flooding threat which right now doesn't seem like much because we're not getting much in the way of rain.

318
00:42:42.870 --> 00:43:00.990
Keith Harrison: But if there were to be a reservoir damn failure, we would be in the zone, plus tsunami, we just recently had a tsunami alert thankfully it's very small waves that hit with not anything that other than to keep people out from swimming but.

319
00:43:02.190 --> 00:43:13.410
Keith Harrison: West of West of Lincoln is very much in danger and and again, should we get summer get coastal storms tropical storms back.

320
00:43:14.490 --> 00:43:23.760
Keith Harrison: Which again heated heated water drives that then that sea level rise contributes to the problem it doesn't cause so you don't have.

321
00:43:24.270 --> 00:43:28.050
Yolanda Gonzalez: to excuse me, are you talking about the ocean rising.

322
00:43:28.890 --> 00:43:33.240
Keith Harrison: i'm talking about two things one sea level rise.

323
00:43:34.380 --> 00:43:37.050
Keith Harrison: will contribute to storm damage.

324
00:43:37.530 --> 00:43:38.160
Keith Harrison: Have we had.

325
00:43:38.700 --> 00:43:39.330
Yolanda Gonzalez: A rise.

326
00:43:40.140 --> 00:43:40.590
Keith Harrison: Excuse me.

327
00:43:41.100 --> 00:43:44.220
Yolanda Gonzalez: Have we had a sea level rise here at Venice.

328
00:43:44.730 --> 00:43:53.430
Keith Harrison: There is the projections are that the sea level is slowly rising, and one of the areas that be the first to be hit by that.

329
00:43:54.030 --> 00:44:02.340
Keith Harrison: is again if you have storm surge it goes over the existing level of water, if the level of water is higher, the storm surge is higher.

330
00:44:02.670 --> 00:44:15.840
Keith Harrison: And then it overwhelms things like the gates down by the canals and that type of thing so it's not that the water is going to that in our lifetime we're going to see water lapping up against Lincoln boulevard.

331
00:44:16.320 --> 00:44:25.500
Keith Harrison: But what we are going to see is that a storm or something of that nature comes in it'll become more severe than it has in the past, now as far as tsunamis.

332
00:44:25.500 --> 00:44:36.030
Keith Harrison: Concern that's independent of that and that's The thing that we are vulnerable to the good news is wildfire interface we're not their.

333
00:44:37.560 --> 00:44:39.900
Keith Harrison: Friends of ours and stuff but we're not seeing.

334
00:44:40.980 --> 00:44:46.110
Keith Harrison: wildfire interface for Venice, we are seeing the possibility that in an earthquake.

335
00:44:46.530 --> 00:44:56.400
Keith Harrison: If people don't take care of small fires, we have the danger of conflagration where you have the danger in an urban area of it fires, going from house to house to house.

336
00:44:56.880 --> 00:45:09.480
Keith Harrison: And with the absence of Fire Response so again that's part of the preparedness message, and we need to do this at the individual and at the neighborhood level.

337
00:45:10.170 --> 00:45:15.150
Keith Harrison: So that we can help each other, ideally, it would be great for us to.

338
00:45:15.660 --> 00:45:28.650
Keith Harrison: You know each block be organized to help each other and then within the neighborhoods that you have that from one block to another that we can communicate their small very cheap radios you can use to do this.

339
00:45:29.280 --> 00:45:48.300
Keith Harrison: And we need a plan so that if i'm sitting here in my in my block here on Luella and folks over by 10 mar need help we can go help them, and vice versa, and then also we can help or be helped by other people in Venice, while we're waiting for government to get things together again.

340
00:45:50.760 --> 00:46:06.090
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm so many years in trucking wanna we have no members of the public, by the way, i'm going to call for public comment but I don't see anyone on the public on here so i'll let this go for a minute, and then we can close public comment but daryl why don't you go ahead.

341
00:46:09.960 --> 00:46:11.430
Daffodil Tyminski: Darrell you need to unmute yourself.

342
00:46:18.060 --> 00:46:20.040
Daffodil Tyminski: Probably bottom left there you go.

343
00:46:20.130 --> 00:46:20.880
Darryl DuFay: i'll get there.

344
00:46:21.630 --> 00:46:22.590
Yolanda Gonzalez: Are you there.

345
00:46:22.830 --> 00:46:25.710
Darryl DuFay: I I appreciate everything, etc.

346
00:46:27.630 --> 00:46:42.540
Darryl DuFay: But can we put a limit on the type of presentation that comes up maybe five minutes, yes we're in the 40 minute you know 40 minutes into it and we've had I didn't I don't have a stop.

347
00:46:43.590 --> 00:46:54.120
Darryl DuFay: But i'm very glad to i'm glad to listen, etc, but we have an agenda get through and i'm just making that gentle comments, thank you.

348
00:46:54.900 --> 00:46:57.300
Daffodil Tyminski: Alright, thanks girl um.

349
00:46:59.250 --> 00:47:06.390
Daffodil Tyminski: So let me just add one thing into the mix here, which is, I should have put number nine and 11 on is the same item.

350
00:47:08.340 --> 00:47:19.320
Daffodil Tyminski: Because many years ago I worked with Keith and with Nick on trying to do what Keith is suggesting now through back then was the public safety and emergency preparedness committee.

351
00:47:19.830 --> 00:47:28.140
Daffodil Tyminski: And we realized back then that one of the easiest ways to organize the Community was through neighborhood watches for emergency preparedness.

352
00:47:29.340 --> 00:47:32.250
Daffodil Tyminski: So if we could just fold that number 11 into this.

353
00:47:33.420 --> 00:47:40.530
Daffodil Tyminski: Because neighborhood watch, like it or not, whether you're pro police or against police or whatever it's what the.

354
00:47:40.560 --> 00:47:41.970
Yolanda Gonzalez: emergency response.

355
00:47:42.570 --> 00:47:46.560
Daffodil Tyminski: need into because of course you've got the police department, with their.

356
00:47:47.730 --> 00:47:53.760
Daffodil Tyminski: divisions and then within the divisions, we have the car numbers and then the slows have the car numbers and the neighborhood watches.

357
00:47:53.760 --> 00:48:01.290
Daffodil Tyminski: Report slows so on a block by block basis it's an easy already existing way to organize.

358
00:48:01.770 --> 00:48:13.110
Daffodil Tyminski: And I think what we had all talked about years ago doing was maybe folding that into EP as well, and so, as you form these neighborhood watch groups, you have a communication network that's very, very, very nitty gritty grassroots.

359
00:48:13.620 --> 00:48:20.670
Daffodil Tyminski: um it's obviously great for crime prevention, but, even more importantly it's a great conduit to get information out in a systemic way for.

360
00:48:21.060 --> 00:48:25.620
Yolanda Gonzalez: People it's already organized one thing it's already in existence.

361
00:48:25.890 --> 00:48:26.310
Daffodil Tyminski: Right.

362
00:48:27.000 --> 00:48:28.530
Daffodil Tyminski: Right so trying to.

363
00:48:28.980 --> 00:48:30.300
Yolanda Gonzalez: We are not well.

364
00:48:30.840 --> 00:48:38.880
Daffodil Tyminski: right we haven't done anything with neighborhood watch on this committee, but it was it was my thought when Keith and I first talked like this is a way to bring this issue in.

365
00:48:40.140 --> 00:48:41.820
Daffodil Tyminski: And so Jeff why don't you.

366
00:48:42.240 --> 00:48:53.430
Go ahead, very quickly, you know it's very I was disturbed and had to respond relative to the idea of course not, we did not have.

367
00:48:54.510 --> 00:49:10.950
Charles Rosin: We do not have all the accurate information about sea level rise tsunami, and things like that it seems like science fiction off the future and I want to point out to as a native of Los Angeles, and those of us who are 70 and above remember, we never had.

368
00:49:12.090 --> 00:49:22.200
Charles Rosin: Santa Ana winds in the fall and the winter that's what caused the malibu fire and, if you would have talked about it, five years ago that there's going to be.

369
00:49:24.210 --> 00:49:26.670
Charles Rosin: A malibu you may have said.

370
00:49:27.480 --> 00:49:28.710
Yolanda Gonzalez: Wait a minute thing.

371
00:49:28.740 --> 00:49:33.030
Daffodil Tyminski: We haven't had wait guys realize lecture to me i'll give you a chance to go back, which is.

372
00:49:34.590 --> 00:49:44.460
Charles Rosin: Santa Santa Ana winds were in the fall and they were hot desert winds now have wins through the canyons every single day there's an emergency alert.

373
00:49:44.820 --> 00:49:54.930
Charles Rosin: The antelope valley and this Canyon and that can you you live in climate change and need to be prepared for it and and that's where Venice is most vulnerable.

374
00:49:55.260 --> 00:50:06.750
Charles Rosin: As is that will work but i'm going to send Keith and i'll send you a copy to Yolanda and reader so at least you know what i'm talking about and don't respond like i'm somehow crazy because I bring it up.

375
00:50:08.850 --> 00:50:19.200
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm go ahead, read it, and I suggest we take this part of the conversation offline because what I really wanted to talk about I would these are all like important points, but.

376
00:50:19.530 --> 00:50:28.980
Daffodil Tyminski: was really developing a communication network with Keith I think he wanted to give us all a sense of what they do and what he does and why it's important to have this communication network.

377
00:50:29.550 --> 00:50:37.800
Daffodil Tyminski: This isn't something we necessarily need to take action on as a committee, I just wanted to get everyone aware of what Keith was doing.

378
00:50:38.250 --> 00:50:50.820
Daffodil Tyminski: and see if we can start developing some sort of like better communication network to the neighborhood's i'm so ready to go ahead, I don't mean to cut you off, but um I didn't want to get too far off topic.

379
00:50:53.880 --> 00:51:10.890
Yolanda Gonzalez: they're asking the first opinion Oh, I think this has gone on too long today for this meeting, I mean this bit about the climate change, I want to, I want to know, yes or no, have we had a sea rise period and how much is that see rise.

380
00:51:12.960 --> 00:51:17.160
Daffodil Tyminski: Why why don't I don't know that I can answer that today, but um let's let's talk about it offline.

381
00:51:17.670 --> 00:51:27.960
Yolanda Gonzalez: yeah I think he can table this and put it offline to these people who are concerned about it, and so they can get some facts and figures together, so we could work with him.

382
00:51:28.320 --> 00:51:38.130
Daffodil Tyminski: Right well, so I don't want the conversation to get hijacked by see rise because really, this is about emergency preparedness it's about grassroots organizing earthquake.

383
00:51:39.180 --> 00:51:40.530
Daffodil Tyminski: bomb explosion.

384
00:51:41.220 --> 00:51:42.270
Keith Harrison: The one reality.

385
00:51:42.270 --> 00:51:56.610
Daffodil Tyminski: That i've learned over the years is that if there is a major cataclysmic event in Los Angeles, there are absolutely no emergency services in Venice that can realistically help us so we're sort of on our own on this one.

386
00:51:57.810 --> 00:52:08.340
Daffodil Tyminski: But you know, in the interest of moving on I would i'll follow up with everyone individually to see how we can like organize everyone's neighborhood.

387
00:52:09.450 --> 00:52:22.920
Daffodil Tyminski: So that we can get good communication, because when stuff like this comes out, I think the point Keith was trying to make is they're using a lot of resources to disseminate outreach and they're still not getting high rates of engagement.

388
00:52:23.760 --> 00:52:25.320
Daffodil Tyminski: And that's just concerning.

389
00:52:25.410 --> 00:52:25.860
Daffodil Tyminski: To them.

390
00:52:26.460 --> 00:52:31.020
Daffodil Tyminski: But I don't think it is this typically about see rise, we go, we got sort of a rabbit hole there were.

391
00:52:31.590 --> 00:52:43.020
Keith Harrison: Just a complicating factor to the fact that we have storms, we have we have flooding vulnerability and again there's earthquake there's.

392
00:52:44.400 --> 00:52:46.230
Keith Harrison: hazardous materials.

393
00:52:47.280 --> 00:52:54.360
Keith Harrison: Problems all these things are vulnerabilities for where we live, and we need to be prepared to survive as a Community.

394
00:52:54.810 --> 00:53:05.580
Keith Harrison: Not just individually, but as a Community, because the system that is set up, because not there to ensure that and I pointed out a couple of examples where did not does not work.

395
00:53:06.480 --> 00:53:12.930
Daffodil Tyminski: Right all right thanks Keith Keith can you um Can you give us your email once again.

396
00:53:15.210 --> 00:53:15.600
Keith Harrison: sure.

397
00:53:16.050 --> 00:53:19.380
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm just so everyone has forgotten Harrison.

398
00:53:20.850 --> 00:53:21.270
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay.

399
00:53:22.680 --> 00:53:31.590
Keith Harrison: yeah it's Keith dot Harrison at Venice and see as a neighborhood council.org.

400
00:53:33.510 --> 00:53:42.900
Keith Harrison: And our meetings are usually the second Tuesday of the month we post them, so if you're at all interested in joining us please.

401
00:53:43.410 --> 00:53:55.230
Keith Harrison: And I intend to come to as many of these as possible, just to be available to to talk to answer questions and to see how we can help organize that US and again.

402
00:53:55.830 --> 00:54:04.470
Keith Harrison: piggyback on things that are already there like neighborhood watch it's an excellent thing if you're already meeting once a month or you know every other week.

403
00:54:05.670 --> 00:54:11.970
Keith Harrison: just put emergency preparedness as as as a line item on your agenda and you're killing two birds with one stone.

404
00:54:13.590 --> 00:54:23.640
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah um and and very briefly, so thank you so much Keith and we will all reach out to you individually and i'll reach out to you as well, after the meeting.

405
00:54:24.750 --> 00:54:36.900
Daffodil Tyminski: But guys on the number 11 on the agenda is there any interest in the group in kind of I know neighborhood watches already out there exists, but is there any interest in coordinating that with the neighborhood committee.

406
00:54:38.580 --> 00:54:42.090
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, just get a show of hands If anyone thinks that's of interest.

407
00:54:44.100 --> 00:55:05.700
Yolanda Gonzalez: we've had such a change of population and and new property owners that have come in, and right now, what we need to do is get our neighborhood Council meeting at the Westminster place it's, the only way that we can organize from there can do it individually, but that's my opinion.

408
00:55:08.400 --> 00:55:17.340
Daffodil Tyminski: Right, so we have been talking to the city about going back and they say that guidance is imminent and they will probably return to some sort of hybrid meeting, where we have a meeting.

409
00:55:20.550 --> 00:55:29.640
Daffodil Tyminski: in person, as well as something on zoom at the same time, but I don't know what that looks like yeah so stay tuned i'm cassie I see you have your hand raised go ahead.

410
00:55:30.810 --> 00:55:33.360
Cassie B: hi daffodil Thank you, I know there are a lot of new.

411
00:55:34.410 --> 00:55:46.350
Cassie B: Homeowners in Venice well could be that we could work with real estate agencies, where the homeowner is given an emergency preparedness package and maybe information on the local block captain.

412
00:55:47.610 --> 00:55:48.990
Daffodil Tyminski: that's a fantastic idea.

413
00:55:50.910 --> 00:56:13.890
Cassie B: Because I my the silver strand neighborhood has been really quite proactive and about emergency preparedness and there's a block Captain on each street and we try to have a meeting at least once a year, and we bring in Nick hicks Lee Cox and an elected official to talk and.

414
00:56:15.330 --> 00:56:29.370
Cassie B: an educated way you know we're just proactive and at these meetings we talked about the importance of having water having a generator you know first day because you're right like you know city of La is a big place and.

415
00:56:30.570 --> 00:56:35.010
Cassie B: they're not going to police aren't going to come to come get you essentially.

416
00:56:36.390 --> 00:56:36.840
Daffodil Tyminski: Right.

417
00:56:38.160 --> 00:56:38.400
Daffodil Tyminski: Now.

418
00:56:39.300 --> 00:56:43.860
Yolanda Gonzalez: can't we handle all this emergency preparedness stuff in a separate meeting.

419
00:56:45.630 --> 00:56:49.410
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah we do I mean this, this was the meeting to to kind of.

420
00:56:49.440 --> 00:56:51.960
Daffodil Tyminski: Just bring it up and get it out there, so everyone knows it's.

421
00:56:51.960 --> 00:56:54.030
Daffodil Tyminski: There I Keith has held meetings.

422
00:56:54.060 --> 00:57:06.120
Yolanda Gonzalez: But I can say something that, in the 1980s we all had emergency preparedness meetings, yes, we did they were held by the fire department in the county and everybody came.

423
00:57:06.900 --> 00:57:20.310
Yolanda Gonzalez: So we we covered earthquakes, we cut we didn't cover seawater we covered earthquakes and we covered fire, and these were throughout Venice i'm sure that Keith remembers them if he was active them.

424
00:57:21.090 --> 00:57:22.770
Daffodil Tyminski: mm hmm okay.

425
00:57:24.390 --> 00:57:40.470
Daffodil Tyminski: All right, well um I think if you want to coordinate in your respective neighborhoods with EP and Keith and with neighborhood watch, let me know and we can fold it together, and if you don't that's fine too i'm.

426
00:57:42.600 --> 00:57:49.440
Daffodil Tyminski: Keith is out there as a resource, so I suggest you reach out Keith Harrison at Venice nc.org.

427
00:57:52.950 --> 00:57:54.120
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks so much Keith.

428
00:57:56.040 --> 00:57:57.450
Daffodil Tyminski: And please feel free to stay on thank.

429
00:57:57.930 --> 00:58:00.660
Keith Harrison: you very much and and, yes, I attended that.

430
00:58:02.460 --> 00:58:03.270
Keith Harrison: That Venice.

431
00:58:04.560 --> 00:58:09.450
Keith Harrison: conference at that time I attended as a government representative and I had.

432
00:58:10.290 --> 00:58:14.850
Yolanda Gonzalez: Any Conference, it was on the street with fire engines and.

433
00:58:15.900 --> 00:58:16.170
Keith Harrison: yeah.

434
00:58:16.530 --> 00:58:22.440
Yolanda Gonzalez: Like we had the health department here, showing how to resuscitate people things like that it wasn't.

435
00:58:22.530 --> 00:58:22.920
Any.

436
00:58:23.940 --> 00:58:27.000
Keith Harrison: highfalutin well I, I believe that there was something held.

437
00:58:27.000 --> 00:58:39.870
Keith Harrison: at Westminster school, which was a big fair they had they had briefings they had literature, they had equipment they had all sorts of people, which was one of the things I remember Yolanda talking about nine Oh, I went to.

438
00:58:40.410 --> 00:58:41.100
Keith Harrison: And yeah.

439
00:58:41.220 --> 00:58:47.790
Keith Harrison: I want to do more and there's many different things we can do so again i'm looking forward to working with you guys and i'm going to just step back.

440
00:58:48.480 --> 00:58:49.260
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks Keith.

441
00:58:51.000 --> 00:58:54.630
Daffodil Tyminski: Alright, so that does it for nine and 11 let's move on to number 10.

442
00:58:56.100 --> 00:59:02.430
Daffodil Tyminski: Number 10 neighborhood cleanups this kind of came up as a conversation with neighbors about.

443
00:59:03.570 --> 00:59:17.220
Daffodil Tyminski: widget my little neighborhood where JEREMY is as well we're rate on all sides of a bid covers cleanups, but of course they don't do our side of the block and so literally all the trash just ends up around our little walk streets.

444
00:59:17.730 --> 00:59:30.090
Daffodil Tyminski: And we were talking about maybe just setting a day like a Saturday or Sunday or whatever as like neighborhood cleanup day someone barbecuing you know doing this obviously within your blocks or your little neighborhoods.

445
00:59:30.570 --> 00:59:44.520
Daffodil Tyminski: and trying to get something going where maybe we do something where we're cleaning up ourselves and I bring this up, because I thought it was a great idea and I thought it'd be something kind of positive, we could do a dnc sponsored cleanup day.

446
00:59:45.540 --> 00:59:52.470
Daffodil Tyminski: um and you know provide people with trash bags and gloves and stuff like that, and then you know get everyone out there.

447
00:59:53.580 --> 01:00:02.730
Daffodil Tyminski: Some of you live in areas that have active Homeowners groups already that are probably doing stuff like this, but I realized our neighborhoods not and there's a lot of neighborhoods that are.

448
01:00:04.890 --> 01:00:09.720
Daffodil Tyminski: So I thought i'd put it on the agenda to discuss does anyone have any any comment or.

449
01:00:11.610 --> 01:00:12.330
Jeremy Loeb: A lovely idea.

450
01:00:13.170 --> 01:00:13.590
Daffodil Tyminski: What.

451
01:00:13.770 --> 01:00:14.580
Jeremy Loeb: I love the idea.

452
01:00:16.500 --> 01:00:16.980
Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks.

453
01:00:17.190 --> 01:00:18.450
Jeremy Loeb: I think it could be a really good.

454
01:00:19.620 --> 01:00:22.200
Jeremy Loeb: Community activity and clean up a lot of stuff that's on the streets.

455
01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:31.920
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah i'm dollar dollar cassie I know you guys have good Homeowners groups where you are do you guys do this at all or.

456
01:00:35.340 --> 01:00:36.570
Darryl DuFay: We have a.

457
01:00:37.980 --> 01:00:47.070
Darryl DuFay: Contract there's a contract with the city that they've had since 1994 in terms of cleaning the canals.

458
01:00:48.600 --> 01:00:49.050
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay.

459
01:00:50.580 --> 01:00:57.990
Cassie B: i'm not so sure I do see people from time to time cleaning the canals every now and then, but I don't know the story behind that.

460
01:00:59.280 --> 01:01:01.380
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay um.

461
01:01:03.690 --> 01:01:14.490
Daffodil Tyminski: um Okay, well, I wanted to throw it out there, I don't you know I didn't know if anyone else was already doing this, or how they organize it or whether they do it officially with the city or not, so I thought i'd bring it up.

462
01:01:14.760 --> 01:01:15.450
one.

463
01:01:18.750 --> 01:01:29.220
Daffodil Tyminski: But that's sort of actually I hate, I guess, I have a question, then, how are you all and actually you know anyone else have anything on neighborhood cleanups.

464
01:01:30.570 --> 01:01:31.200
Daffodil Tyminski: raise your hand.

465
01:01:33.420 --> 01:01:43.590
Yolanda Gonzalez: You know the triangle used to have a great organization, and this would be done, probably by monthly and everybody would donate a truck.

466
01:01:44.280 --> 01:01:57.600
Yolanda Gonzalez: breaks and things like that this no longer happens and what I have done is i've gone up and down the alleys and when they're they get bad or whatever I just notify the people you know you should get better and clean up.

467
01:01:58.890 --> 01:01:59.610
Yolanda Gonzalez: And it is.

468
01:02:00.810 --> 01:02:02.100
Yolanda Gonzalez: Good and they do it.

469
01:02:02.850 --> 01:02:03.270
yeah.

470
01:02:05.520 --> 01:02:15.330
Yolanda Gonzalez: Well, many of us have gardeners too, and I have my gardeners that come twice a month and they help clean up you know around my building and behind and in the alley.

471
01:02:15.660 --> 01:02:21.810
Yolanda Gonzalez: So we're very because there are areas where they're just apartment buildings and some of the apartment owners still.

472
01:02:22.380 --> 01:02:37.920
Yolanda Gonzalez: They just have their their premises clean, but they don't bother to clean up behind their alleys and that's something maybe we can work on that to help cooperate but you know I have my own gardens, and they do a beautiful job.

473
01:02:37.920 --> 01:02:38.160
Sergio Pérez: Now I.

474
01:02:38.220 --> 01:02:38.430
Sergio Pérez: got.

475
01:02:39.210 --> 01:02:41.430
Yolanda Gonzalez: back with one guy that just let.

476
01:02:44.220 --> 01:02:47.610
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay yeah I mean we have a situation where we get a lot of tours traffic.

477
01:02:48.360 --> 01:02:53.550
Daffodil Tyminski: So we have a lot of people that have just no investment in the Community walking by and tossing rappers and.

478
01:02:53.610 --> 01:02:55.140
Daffodil Tyminski: it's amazing after Sunday.

479
01:02:55.230 --> 01:02:57.450
Yolanda Gonzalez: What are oh yeah yeah.

480
01:02:57.870 --> 01:03:04.770
Daffodil Tyminski: um so okay well um let's close that then there's no public comment, I can see.

481
01:03:05.910 --> 01:03:14.340
Daffodil Tyminski: And we can move on items, not on the agenda and, for me, the one thing I wanted to few things I wanted to bring up one was just generally.

482
01:03:14.790 --> 01:03:33.870
Daffodil Tyminski: trying to figure out how we do organize better communication I don't know if if each of you makes an attempt to do outreach or have communication with your neighborhoods or, if you do, how you do it is it through email i'm wondering, should we be putting stuff on instagram.

483
01:03:35.970 --> 01:03:46.170
Daffodil Tyminski: To get to get information out in the Community, I have always assumed that the neighborhood REPS communicated back to their neighborhoods but recently something came up where.

484
01:03:46.740 --> 01:03:53.760
Daffodil Tyminski: I realized they at least in one instance they do not, and so people in that neighborhood were all upset about something and I was like.

485
01:03:55.830 --> 01:03:56.250
Daffodil Tyminski: Sorry.

486
01:03:58.290 --> 01:04:09.540
Daffodil Tyminski: um so I just wanted to throw that out there, if anyone has any comment on it or or has a sense of what they think is a committee would serve us best i'd love to hear it, and then next.

487
01:04:09.540 --> 01:04:28.980
Yolanda Gonzalez: door next door does a very good job of everybody in informing everything that's going on, I I really look into next door to see what's going on in the comments and so on, but maybe we should just if we have something come up that is important to our committee.

488
01:04:30.120 --> 01:04:32.610
Yolanda Gonzalez: Maybe we can just post it in the next door.

489
01:04:33.090 --> 01:04:35.520
Yolanda Gonzalez: And then get a response from them.

490
01:04:36.720 --> 01:04:49.380
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I was trying to figure out a week can we create a more systemic way to be organized right, so that we can promote what's going on in the Community, more and get it out to our neighborhood groups.

491
01:04:51.630 --> 01:05:01.170
Daffodil Tyminski: And I suppose you know we can just start developing an email list, but I would assume that each of you has your own networks, a separate and apart from what would be an official group.

492
01:05:02.220 --> 01:05:02.850
Daffodil Tyminski: um.

493
01:05:04.680 --> 01:05:05.580
Daffodil Tyminski: You know so.

494
01:05:06.630 --> 01:05:17.520
Daffodil Tyminski: Again I don't have a specific thought on that is I don't know what everyone's doing, but if anyone has any sort of comment on how they organize or do you think that this is something that we shouldn't even be bothering with and they weren't committee.

495
01:05:19.980 --> 01:05:20.730
Daffodil Tyminski: Let me know.

496
01:05:22.140 --> 01:05:33.150
Daffodil Tyminski: The other thing I wanted to mention was um we have gotten a lot of requests at the dnc and you know, obviously I see the need for this as well, to do something with centennial park.

497
01:05:34.740 --> 01:05:46.950
Daffodil Tyminski: Now, obviously we're pretty powerless to accomplish anything I think in this situation, but it's a situation that's gone way out of control and there isn't another committee at the moment that's doing anything with it.

498
01:05:47.820 --> 01:05:54.780
Daffodil Tyminski: So I did reach out to we had a task force on the park, which I believe has been disbanded.

499
01:05:57.420 --> 01:05:58.260
Daffodil Tyminski: and

500
01:05:59.400 --> 01:06:12.180
Daffodil Tyminski: We you know I reached out to the homeless committee to see if they would want to maybe do a joint meeting with us, or if they want to tackle it I know they had one or two motions come out of their committee about the park that everyone was very unhappy with so.

501
01:06:13.530 --> 01:06:20.340
Daffodil Tyminski: I wanted to just raise the issue now if it's something we want to do take on, as a committee it's obviously going to be controversial.

502
01:06:21.300 --> 01:06:35.700
Daffodil Tyminski: i'm more than happy to do it, and if we want to do a special meeting just for we can do that if we just want to put it on next month's agenda, we can do that, I think, as a practical matter I don't know there's much we can actually do to.

503
01:06:35.940 --> 01:06:37.080
Yolanda Gonzalez: affect change.

504
01:06:37.590 --> 01:06:45.330
Daffodil Tyminski: But I do think we can provide a sort of city based forum for people to get their thoughts out publicly.

505
01:06:46.740 --> 01:06:48.660
Daffodil Tyminski: and communicate them back to the city.

506
01:06:49.860 --> 01:06:57.810
Daffodil Tyminski: So anyway, those are the two comments I had of stuff not on the agenda if anyone else has any comments raise your hand Darrell I save your hand raise, so why don't you go first.

507
01:06:57.930 --> 01:07:00.540
Darryl DuFay: You know I sent out this morning.

508
01:07:01.770 --> 01:07:05.550
Darryl DuFay: To my 45 people and this committee is one of them.

509
01:07:06.780 --> 01:07:17.940
Darryl DuFay: From the friends of the Venice library about the fire that was right next to the library, and this is the second.

510
01:07:18.480 --> 01:07:39.900
Darryl DuFay: thing about about the friends of the Venice library, and this is the nonprofit of hundred people that support all the book sales, etc, etc, they are terrified by the encampment absolutely terrified and nothing seems to be done, and of course the core problem.

511
01:07:40.320 --> 01:07:48.120
Darryl DuFay: Is that individual was no longer going to be with us in January, and that is Mike bonding.

512
01:07:51.270 --> 01:08:07.590
Darryl DuFay: I don't know what can be done, but one a library is threatened by an encampment watch it is something you should just say we are going to move the individuals away from there.

513
01:08:08.250 --> 01:08:20.130
Darryl DuFay: They can no longer the they didn't the the people that come to see it won't come anymore, they won't bring their kids there anymore, they can't use the bathrooms there anymore.

514
01:08:20.850 --> 01:08:35.940
Darryl DuFay: It is as disaster, we can talk about a disaster, but until there are some enforcement, we can do a lot of talking but nothing's been done i'm really concerned about it please read the article that I sent you this morning.

515
01:08:37.230 --> 01:08:39.090
Cassie B: Thank you for sending that article.

516
01:08:40.620 --> 01:08:42.960
Cassie B: yeah disasters, a good way of putting.

Daffodil Tyminski: This is cassie for the record.

518
01:08:47.220 --> 01:08:47.490
Daffodil Tyminski: Okay.

519
01:08:47.550 --> 01:08:50.880
Daffodil Tyminski: Yes, go ahead, I agree with you Darren This is why I wanted to.

520
01:08:51.180 --> 01:08:54.690
Daffodil Tyminski: Talk about it and see if we do we want to have a meeting about it.

521
01:08:55.800 --> 01:08:57.420
Daffodil Tyminski: You know or not, but cassie go ahead.

01:08:58.950 --> 01:09:04.410
Cassie B: Oh no, I just wanted to say, you know, thank you for sending that article, for I read it and yeah it's.

523
01:09:05.460 --> 01:09:08.700
Cassie B: absolute disaster embarrassment.

524
01:09:10.860 --> 01:09:11.730

Yolanda Gonzalez: The officials in its bombing its bottom was really stopping us from doing anything and we're going to we've got even on board right now.

529
01:10:07.800 --> 01:10:15.060
Yolanda Gonzalez: For mayors from different cities, because they have the same issues and they're all trying to bind together in which we.

530
01:10:16.590 --> 01:10:27.600
Yolanda Gonzalez: Have a solution to this problem, because you just can't move people out and then they go somewhere else, because that's what's going to happen it's like you know the rabbits you know you they multiply multiply very big.

531
01:10:28.290 --> 01:10:39.060
Yolanda Gonzalez: um you want to bring in and you want to declared an emergency you bring in fema fema brings in the the feds that's the problem we have we don't want to start a riot okay.

Yolanda Gonzalez: And we've got.

533

i'm.

543
01:11:42.270 --> 01:11:55.680
Darryl DuFay: i'm so concerned about this, but unless we go into a meeting with facts, etc, etc, and that is, then, we have instead of a instead of a.

544
01:11:56.250 --> 01:12:07.230
Darryl DuFay: Something like this that we're talking about like this, otherwise we're going to just it's just going to be the same thing if there is nothing and that can be done tell us.

545
01:12:07.800 --> 01:12:20.070
Darryl DuFay: I had years ago I remember when I send something to the Council office when good relations good relations, and I said don't tell us about something.

546
01:12:20.730 --> 01:12:32.250
Darryl DuFay: That you're going to do if you can't do it and I never heard back and because I had such a good relationship with the person at least we're honest.

547
01:12:32.730 --> 01:12:42.840
Darryl DuFay: And I want that they couldn't do it, so there has to be a realization What about what can be done and can't be done and i'm always i'm always like.

563
01:14:12.900 --> 01:14:14.550
Jeremy Loeb: I had one thing I wanted to ask about.

564
01:14:16.080 --> 01:14:22.560
Jeremy Loeb: The time I know we talked a lot about the cabinet in by the library my My other concern is is.

565
01:14:22.650 --> 01:14:25.140
Jeremy Loeb: What never really comes up is the movies.

566
01:14:25.650 --> 01:14:26.970
Jeremy Loeb: And i'm not sure if that's something you want to.

567
01:14:27.060 --> 01:14:29.280
Jeremy Loeb: Talk about right now, or if this is not the right.

568
01:14:30.510 --> 01:14:39.990
Jeremy Loeb: venue for it, but the rv is to me or a bigger problem than the encampments I mean the the rv is on Main Street is what i'm talking about there's also the ones, obviously down by.

569
01:14:40.410 --> 01:14:50.670
Jeremy Loeb: The wetlands, but for the ones that really affect us in Venice it's the ones on Main Street, and I just didn't know if there was something to be done about that because that's what actually bothers me the most.

570
01:14:51.150 --> 01:14:53.370
Yolanda Gonzalez: Well, one thing you could do is.

571
01:14:53.970 --> 01:15:05.160
Yolanda Gonzalez: Get 65% of the signatures and had the signs put up that 11 a mark driving tried that but Google happens to be across the street.

572
01:15:05.250 --> 01:15:07.320
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah we did it we did there there.

573
01:15:07.920 --> 01:15:09.150
Yolanda Gonzalez: were signs are there.

574
01:15:09.330 --> 01:15:10.650
Yolanda Gonzalez: yeah oh.

575
01:15:10.980 --> 01:15:11.490
Daffodil Tyminski: well.

576
01:15:11.610 --> 01:15:25.740
Daffodil Tyminski: We did get 65% of the people we did get approval we did all that I don't know that the city ever actually put up the signs, although I think they did on one side of the street, which is why that one block isn't but we've tried that route already.

577
01:15:26.340 --> 01:15:29.370
Yolanda Gonzalez: i've already seen that some of these vans have tickets on them.

578
01:15:29.610 --> 01:15:30.150
Yolanda Gonzalez: When.

579
01:15:30.480 --> 01:15:38.850
Yolanda Gonzalez: The problem is that they don't have enough room to to store away these enormous vans and that's a problem but they've been ticket it already so.

580
01:15:39.960 --> 01:15:42.210
Yolanda Gonzalez: We didn't have horses.

581
01:15:42.570 --> 01:15:47.610
Daffodil Tyminski: city will say that there is only one tow truck in the city that can tell, an rv.

582
01:15:47.940 --> 01:15:48.750
Yolanda Gonzalez: it's very hard.

583
01:15:48.990 --> 01:15:59.370
Daffodil Tyminski: it's a Department of Transportation own it's not lapd or breath fees or whatever and there's only one lot they have that they can put them in um but i'll talk to you about that JEREMY because i've been sort of.

584
01:16:00.300 --> 01:16:03.990
Daffodil Tyminski: keeping track of that a little bit, and I really think that's an issue for the homeless committee.

585
01:16:04.830 --> 01:16:05.790
Daffodil Tyminski: But you're right.

586
01:16:05.880 --> 01:16:10.890
Daffodil Tyminski: Those things on Main Street catch on fire at least once a week and then a new one pops up and.

587
01:16:10.950 --> 01:16:19.170
Jeremy Loeb: I just I mean I just said to me is that I actually don't walk the main chute anymore like I don't do it just it's like my I used to walk to make it all the time I just don't anymore.

588
01:16:19.560 --> 01:16:22.590
Jeremy Loeb: yeah I would, if I had a reason to but I don't.

589
01:16:22.620 --> 01:16:34.350
Jeremy Loeb: really have reasons to anymore, because I don't like to go past all of the reviews, I definitely won't go up the side of the block on the on the West side of the block because that that is really dangerous that that's drip of sidewalk between the arby's and the fence.

590
01:16:34.680 --> 01:16:44.520
Jeremy Loeb: yeah like cross the street, but anyway, I just wondered if we're going to fight a fight maybe that's an easier fight to fight is what i'm saying, because between that and they can't man I looked at them, both as equally bad.

591
01:16:45.150 --> 01:16:58.080
Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I agree with you, I agree with you um the I think the issue that's really making the library such a big deal is really the fact that it's at the library.

592
01:16:58.170 --> 01:16:59.280
Daffodil Tyminski: Right like.

593
01:16:59.520 --> 01:17:03.450
Daffodil Tyminski: You know there's a lot of kids programs now or not happening and.

594
01:17:03.480 --> 01:17:03.780
Daffodil Tyminski: You know.

595
01:17:03.810 --> 01:17:07.650
Daffodil Tyminski: Summers coming up and the library should be this great Community resource that.

596
01:17:07.800 --> 01:17:08.610
Jeremy Loeb: is basically.
