142 00:11:11.070 --> 00:11:15.180 Brian Averill: So our first motion, so the recent increase in beach camping. 143 00:11:16.770 --> 00:11:29.970 Brian Averill: This is just for everything tonight is for discussion and possible motion I don't know about the rest of you guys, but here in North Venice the beach camping is sort of cranking up again, a lot of it is near the Rose lot. 144 00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:37.770 Brian Averill: Around the playground there around the Dudley pagodas that sort of stuff so it's getting pretty messy and there's a lot of campers. 145 00:11:38.910 --> 00:11:41.610 Brian Averill: So I think we should discuss that. 146 00:11:44.400 --> 00:11:50.670 Brian Averill: So, I guess, we would go to public comment on that first here before we get into it. 147 00:11:53.730 --> 00:11:55.380 Brian Averill: don't see any. 148 00:11:56.280 --> 00:11:56.790 Lisa. 149 00:11:59.370 --> 00:12:04.140 Jim Robb: sure you would like to speak on us and we'd love to hear your antidote if you're there. 150 00:12:06.600 --> 00:12:07.260 Brian Averill: There you go so. 151 00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:15.240 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: I good evening, thank you, I didn't want to waste your time you're very limited time tonight with general public comment. 152 00:12:15.870 --> 00:12:22.050 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: um yeah the increase in beach camping that's just such a messy subject um. 153 00:12:22.680 --> 00:12:38.370 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: And you guys all know where i'm coming from you know people got to land somewhere and when they keep getting swept from here and there, they have to go somewhere um and we know that Venice has a history of people camping on the beach, not just in the recent few years. 154 00:12:39.390 --> 00:12:50.520 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: When everyone was removed a year ago it was way less than it's ever been but you know I can remember coming up here as a young Gal in the 70s, in the resolve these people camping on the beach then to. 155 00:12:51.660 --> 00:12:58.170 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: I would just consider if you're going to make any motion that you urge it please for any kind of housing. 156 00:12:59.280 --> 00:13:08.160 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: offers and or shelter offers or something, because just to demand that a beach be clean from one house people without providing any kind of housing. 157 00:13:09.300 --> 00:13:12.480 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Is that well that's all i'm asking thanks Jim. 158 00:13:13.230 --> 00:13:18.030 Jim Robb: Since we got you to the how to the placement go for the people that were at the library. 159 00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:24.120 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: um I think it went pretty well, I mean it was nice that they scrambled up an offer, except that you know. 160 00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:30.240 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Unfortunately, our system isn't designed to have the kind of housing, that is needed for. 161 00:13:30.870 --> 00:13:37.110 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Everybody and a lot of the people that didn't accept housing and got left behind, are some people that have critical. 162 00:13:37.740 --> 00:13:45.540 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Mental issues and mental deficiencies and there's just first of all, we couldn't even get mental the Department of mental health to come out and then. 163 00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:57.420 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Even there if they did come out where would they have gone we just don't have places like that, for those poor souls in our Community so that's that's quickly my fault, but thank you for asking. 164 00:13:58.470 --> 00:13:59.010 Jim Robb: Thank you. 165 00:14:00.060 --> 00:14:00.600 Jim Robb: Okay. 166 00:14:02.010 --> 00:14:04.290 Jim Robb: yeah it was helping other does she want to speak. 167 00:14:06.540 --> 00:14:06.990 Jim Robb: Okay. 168 00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:09.300 Brian Averill: i'm keeping someone raises their hand there. 169 00:14:09.330 --> 00:14:11.760 Brian Averill: Okay, we can move on the board like. 170 00:14:12.300 --> 00:14:24.870 Jim Robb: Okay let's see what the board, what do you think though well Cooley you deal with it, Brian you deal with this, I mean I deal with it, but you guys see a little bit more than me so let's open it up. 171 00:14:25.890 --> 00:14:29.340 Brian Averill: Well, if there's board comment just throw your hands up and we'll we'll do it. 172 00:14:31.020 --> 00:14:34.140 Brian Averill: Noel you refers calling after that. 173 00:14:35.820 --> 00:14:48.660 Noel Johnston: I Brian I send you a picture of what it looks like today out there in front, at the very northern most and it's right on the Santa Monica border there are 10 tents out there. 174 00:14:49.440 --> 00:15:00.060 Noel Johnston: least eight of them have been there for over six weeks probably more of I was burned out of my house I just moved back in to my house, two months ago and I haven't. 175 00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:07.140 Noel Johnston: haven't haven't had my eye on the beach I had my in my house um but it. 176 00:15:08.310 --> 00:15:14.550 Noel Johnston: This is, this is a messy group the police are out there every Thursday morning, and there are other people out there, trying to clean it up. 177 00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:23.730 Noel Johnston: it's a I think that the big objection is the noise and the mess as much as as much as anything it's. 178 00:15:24.660 --> 00:15:31.770 Noel Johnston: Constant cleanup and there's junk all over the place, Brian I sent you a picture of a bunch of junk that was dumped in front of the. 179 00:15:32.580 --> 00:15:41.070 Noel Johnston: One of the signs that i'm trying to get rid of in front of my house that you can you can see it's just kind of a free for all out there, plus the fact that over by the Rose. 180 00:15:43.710 --> 00:15:44.310 Noel Johnston: toilets. 181 00:15:45.780 --> 00:15:55.440 Noel Johnston: Their campers there that have been there for well over a month now also and are very entrenched the group out on the beach has had at least for fires. 182 00:15:56.430 --> 00:16:06.480 Noel Johnston: Fire department has been out there, that I know, obviously, since i've been back in my house three times I just hate seem to have the fires, they weren't big but one burned down attention, no one was in it. 183 00:16:08.130 --> 00:16:21.810 Noel Johnston: So it's that's a constant problem is, you know it's camping on the beach should be at a place where there are two camping facilities, where where there are two bathrooms right now, these people are digging latrines. 184 00:16:23.490 --> 00:16:24.810 Noel Johnston: And you can see them digging. 185 00:16:27.030 --> 00:16:28.140 Brian Averill: digging latrines on the beach. 186 00:16:28.620 --> 00:16:30.570 Noel Johnston: We just need to keep working on this. 187 00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:31.770 Noel Johnston: Is my brain. 188 00:16:32.250 --> 00:16:32.970 Brian Averill: you're digging. 189 00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:33.930 latrines. 190 00:16:35.400 --> 00:16:35.790 Noel Johnston: Yes. 191 00:16:35.910 --> 00:16:36.510 Brian Averill: one another. 192 00:16:40.350 --> 00:16:45.750 Noel Johnston: that's that's about that's what i've got to say about homeless situation okay cool. 193 00:16:46.050 --> 00:16:47.670 Brian Averill: Thank you well calling. 194 00:16:49.140 --> 00:16:55.440 evelynsaro: So um I just want to is this on the boardwalk or on the beach or both. 195 00:16:55.950 --> 00:17:03.300 Noel Johnston: This is this is this is on the wall, I would say it's both but what i'm talking about specifically calling the. 196 00:17:04.110 --> 00:17:12.330 Noel Johnston: Is the big encampment here at the border, which which really has been around for a very long time, but I mean maybe 10 years it's been around. 197 00:17:12.660 --> 00:17:23.580 Noel Johnston: And they've been better and worse groups there, I mean once we had a bicycle shop and there was a lot of chop chop out there, and there was a lot of violence out there, this group doesn't seem to be violent at all oh they've got their. 198 00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:24.840 Jim Robb: pockets. 199 00:17:25.470 --> 00:17:27.000 evelynsaro: I think my thing is. 200 00:17:27.300 --> 00:17:29.820 evelynsaro: My thing is if it's on the beach and. 201 00:17:29.910 --> 00:17:32.160 evelynsaro: Then the police lapd needs to be involved. 202 00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:35.040 evelynsaro: Because there's no supposed to be no camping on the beach. 203 00:17:35.310 --> 00:17:43.020 evelynsaro: that's good that's all that's already yeah that's already that's already on the books, so if you guys are thinking of emotion that's already on the book so just needs. 204 00:17:43.020 --> 00:17:45.030 evelynsaro: To Someone needs to be contacting. 205 00:17:46.560 --> 00:17:49.470 evelynsaro: I don't know even know who the lead officer is now so sorry about that. 206 00:17:49.830 --> 00:17:50.160 But. 207 00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:53.610 Brian Averill: Let me contrast is our. 208 00:17:53.730 --> 00:17:55.320 Brian Averill: slo okay okay. 209 00:17:55.710 --> 00:17:57.330 evelynsaro: So yeah so. 210 00:17:57.750 --> 00:17:58.080 Jim Robb: What do we. 211 00:17:58.470 --> 00:18:05.670 Jim Robb: What do we do it's the border of Santa Monica I think they're right in that middle word right where her house is so. 212 00:18:06.330 --> 00:18:08.520 evelynsaro: Once again, if it's but if it's on the sand. 213 00:18:09.090 --> 00:18:11.370 evelynsaro: Okay, illegal already. 214 00:18:11.520 --> 00:18:20.010 evelynsaro: there's already a law on the books if it's on the sand and so lapd just needs to be unfortunate and if it's on the border of Santa Monica and Venice and they need to be working with Santa Monica please. 215 00:18:20.520 --> 00:18:22.410 evelynsaro: I can't speak to anything on the boardwalk. 216 00:18:23.610 --> 00:18:24.210 evelynsaro: um. 217 00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:25.500 evelynsaro: Nothing really happened, though. 218 00:18:25.770 --> 00:18:33.870 evelynsaro: But you know I would I just kind of wanted to make that comment, if you guys didn't already know that which i'm sure you all do but keep that in mind when you're if if emotion comes up. 219 00:18:35.340 --> 00:18:35.550 Brian Averill: cool. 220 00:18:35.580 --> 00:18:37.740 Jim Robb: We have anybody else Brian. 221 00:18:38.790 --> 00:18:40.050 Brian Averill: robbins Max. 222 00:18:41.070 --> 00:18:43.590 Robin Rudisill: yeah I was gonna say almost the same thing as colleen. 223 00:18:44.100 --> 00:18:52.530 Robin Rudisill: I understood that the police did enforce on the Sam and I thought they were doing that event, you know, last year, when it was at its worst. 224 00:18:52.770 --> 00:19:10.110 Robin Rudisill: At least they were enforcing on the sense i'm not sure what changed, so we should definitely have one in our motion a whereas you know it is unlawful to Camp law, the sand and lapd has enforced this in the past, because something like that oh. 225 00:19:10.350 --> 00:19:14.640 Jim Robb: I think that's a good into the conversation why don't you Brian come up with emotion. 226 00:19:15.030 --> 00:19:15.300 well. 227 00:19:17.670 --> 00:19:18.330 Noel Johnston: we'll do that. 228 00:19:20.070 --> 00:19:30.060 Brian Averill: motion on demand pump I think it's because I think this is directly the latest is directly connected to the centennial park cleanup because, when that happened. 229 00:19:30.570 --> 00:19:41.820 Brian Averill: The number of campers out there visually rose, it was obvious that the two are connected so i'm wondering if it's just sort of a temporary thing until lapd sort of gets a handle on it. 230 00:19:43.530 --> 00:19:47.520 Noel Johnston: Right, the this group at the border is not is not. 231 00:19:48.840 --> 00:20:03.360 Noel Johnston: Is not been affected, very much if at all, by centennial there my neighbors have it documented over the last six months and there, there are two tents out there that have been there for at least six months. 232 00:20:03.510 --> 00:20:08.460 Brian Averill: Right yeah I know those guys I just feel like there's even more in the last two weeks well. 233 00:20:08.490 --> 00:20:15.690 Noel Johnston: There, there were 10 when I moved back into my house seven weeks ago, and there are tend to die, but they're they're different a different 10. 234 00:20:16.710 --> 00:20:28.410 Noel Johnston: Only only only three of the 10 tents, are the same people that were there when I moved in and two of those people had been there for a very long time, or two attempts have been there for a very long time. 235 00:20:29.220 --> 00:20:29.580 evelynsaro: And then. 236 00:20:30.540 --> 00:20:32.910 Noel Johnston: Another group that's over by the. 237 00:20:34.350 --> 00:20:35.700 Noel Johnston: The toilet. 238 00:20:37.080 --> 00:20:51.900 Brian Averill: But my concern is that so much time and money and effort and energy was spent last summer sort of clearing the beach and getting folks in the housing that now if we start this trickle of more campers on the beach where we're going to go down a slippery slope again. 239 00:20:51.930 --> 00:20:57.210 evelynsaro: What that's the thing so CD 11 also should have been contacted with this as well because, like. 240 00:20:58.050 --> 00:21:08.730 evelynsaro: Lisa said, and everybody knows you know you can't get them off the beach if you can provide something for them so Is there something lined up already has anyone looked into that as they're going to they're going to be options for these people to go to. 241 00:21:10.140 --> 00:21:10.890 evelynsaro: that are available. 242 00:21:11.700 --> 00:21:12.840 Jim Robb: We have, so we need to get. 243 00:21:12.930 --> 00:21:17.070 Jim Robb: Whoever whoever bone in sky is for girl is. 244 00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:21.450 Jim Robb: To find out if there's any facilities for mental health. 245 00:21:24.810 --> 00:21:27.480 Brian Averill: Does anyone want to throw out the beginning of emotion. 246 00:21:27.780 --> 00:21:31.530 Jim Robb: I think I think he just said what you just said about two seconds ago. 247 00:21:32.040 --> 00:21:37.980 Jim Robb: That the type of the effort it was taken to to to make the boardwalk. 248 00:21:39.180 --> 00:21:51.330 Jim Robb: accessible to the tourist again these to be you know after the time and effort money it costs, you know that we need to do something like that I think what you just said, the last three seconds, you said we're perfect started out with. 249 00:21:51.810 --> 00:22:04.080 Noel Johnston: You don't want to start out with our whereas there is increased camping on the North end of the Venice beach, and whereas camping is illegal on the beach the ocean walk committee request that. 250 00:22:05.610 --> 00:22:06.240 Brian Averill: That sounds good. 251 00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:07.500 Jim Robb: That sounds perfect. 252 00:22:09.300 --> 00:22:09.840 Jim Robb: right through. 253 00:22:10.320 --> 00:22:11.970 Jim Robb: right through a little bit of weight. 254 00:22:12.270 --> 00:22:21.960 Noel Johnston: I think we need them, they are the number of the of the ruling does anybody colleen do you don't happen to know that do you think it would be great if we had that. 255 00:22:23.670 --> 00:22:24.120 Brian Averill: Robin. 256 00:22:24.390 --> 00:22:25.050 evelynsaro: I don't. 257 00:22:25.830 --> 00:22:29.040 Brian Averill: I don't think it's 4118 I think there's a separate one for the beach. 258 00:22:31.320 --> 00:22:35.910 Brian Averill: robin's not here she would no no well do you have that written down because that was an excellent beginning. 259 00:22:36.120 --> 00:22:37.650 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: 63 or. 260 00:22:38.940 --> 00:22:43.770 Noel Johnston: 6344 6324. 261 00:22:44.430 --> 00:22:44.940 Yes. 262 00:22:46.980 --> 00:22:47.400 Lisa. 263 00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:01.560 Noel Johnston: um okay. 264 00:23:02.580 --> 00:23:10.320 Noel Johnston: Whereas there is increased camping in the north end of the of the Venice beach, and whereas camping is illegal on the beach the ocean front walk. 265 00:23:11.490 --> 00:23:12.300 Noel Johnston: Citing. 266 00:23:14.310 --> 00:23:15.030 Noel Johnston: What do we call it. 267 00:23:16.050 --> 00:23:16.530 Noel Johnston: Will. 268 00:23:17.910 --> 00:23:18.270 Noel Johnston: say. 269 00:23:18.450 --> 00:23:19.140 Brian Averill: la la. 270 00:23:21.600 --> 00:23:22.320 Noel Johnston: la what. 271 00:23:22.740 --> 00:23:23.130 Brian Averill: Oh hey. 272 00:23:24.300 --> 00:23:29.460 Noel Johnston: Oh okay and es la MC 6344. 273 00:23:30.930 --> 00:23:31.380 Noel Johnston: Is. 274 00:23:35.160 --> 00:23:41.940 Noel Johnston: The oceanfront walk request that campers be removed from the beach in a time by the police in a timely fashion. 275 00:23:42.930 --> 00:23:45.870 Jim Robb: Or, as to be placed in the help in a. 276 00:23:48.210 --> 00:23:49.260 Jim Robb: So we put that part. 277 00:23:49.470 --> 00:24:00.990 Noel Johnston: Now, because because honestly I think that's important, but I think that that that makes this totally contingent on finding housing for them and that's what that's what they. 278 00:24:02.220 --> 00:24:12.360 Noel Johnston: that's what they are using right now to stay where they are, and I understand that, I mean they say that they haven't fired they they have not found appropriate homes for them. 279 00:24:13.740 --> 00:24:14.730 Noel Johnston: Appropriate housing. 280 00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:19.380 Noel Johnston: They don't like the housing that's been con. 281 00:24:19.410 --> 00:24:21.750 Noel Johnston: For them, and and that has been offered to them. 282 00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:23.910 Brian Averill: Jim are you proposing. 283 00:24:24.600 --> 00:24:27.300 Noel Johnston: The police officers bridges and Martin, do you know who they are. 284 00:24:28.470 --> 00:24:30.360 Noel Johnston: they're they're out there every Thursday morning. 285 00:24:31.140 --> 00:24:34.530 Brian Averill: Okay, but let's let's Polish our motion up here okay i'll. 286 00:24:34.560 -->

the first part, what do we have so far. 288 00:24:48.630 --> 00:25:04.680 Noel Johnston: Well, whereas there I don't know if we we will agree on this, but we're whereas there's increased camping on the Northern to the Venice beach, and whereas camping is illegal and then we put in parenthesis la MC 6344. 289 00:25:05.730 --> 00:25:12.090 Noel Johnston: The oceanfront walk committee request that campers be removed from the beach in a timely and compassionate fashion. 290 00:25:13.980 --> 00:25:20.460 Robin Rudisill: Be just according to Protocol, and that would cut her you know them having to offer housing. 291 00:25:22.650 --> 00:25:22.860 Jim Robb: Very. 292 00:25:24.090 --> 00:25:25.680 Brian Averill: Good some good everybody. 293 00:25:26.130 --> 00:25:27.330 Jim Robb: We said it best

00:25:35.760 --> 00:25:39.750 Robin Rudisill: bring up housing I think they have to do that, I think that's a given. 297 00:25:42.450 --> 00:25:45.570 Jim Robb: That we said this to lapd to. 298 00:25:45.660 --> 00:25:47.220 Jim Robb: kill someone bonus office. 299 00:25:47.940 --> 00:25:49.500 Jim Robb: you'll also be sending this to. 300 00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:59.280 Brian Averill: lapd you

on the ocean front walk is such a weird fine line. 304 00:26:15.990 --> 00:26:21.600 Jim Robb: If we can we include Santa Monica PT do we have a way to include them or no. 305 00:26:21.630 --> 00:26:22.500 evelynsaro: No, I don't think you can. 306 00:26:23.520 --> 00:26:26.940 Noel Johnston: Oh, you thinking of Ken for him format or Carroll Baker. 307 00:26:28.740 --> 00:26:29.220 Noel

Catholic Worker: And then, a as a city agency of the dnc i'm pretty sure you can't go to county and definitely you couldn't go to Santa Monica. 325 00:27:33.600 --> 00:27:34.500 Jim Robb: Okay okay. 326 00:27:35.130 --> 00:27:38.340 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: But that's it but that's all i'm asking Thank you. 327 00:27:41.910 --> 00:27:42.720 Jim Robb: Can we add that. 328 00:27:45.870 --> 00:27:47.850 Robin Rudisill: I think we can see see them. 329 00:27:48.570 --> 00:27:50.400 Robin Rudisill: shouldn't be any. 330 00:27:52.110 --> 00:27:53.520 Robin Rudisill: Copying them on the letter. 331 00:27:54.900 --> 00:27:55.290 Jim Robb: Or if. 332 00:27:55.350 --> 00:27:58.200 Robin Rudisill: We just can't we just can't ask them you. 333 00:27:58.950 --> 00:27:59.940 Brian Averill: know, can you shoot. 334 00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:01.710 Brian Averill: For housing. 335 00:28:02.520 --> 00:28:03.300 Noel Johnston: Most capacity. 336 00:28:09.510 --> 00:28:10.080 Jim Robb: job. 337 00:28:14.100 --> 00:28:14.370 Jim Robb: The. 338 00:28:16.800 --> 00:28:17.700 Jim Robb: one hour. 339 00:28:20.010 --> 00:28:21.750 Jim Robb: Good job everybody good. 340 00:28:22.650 --> 00:28:25.950 Noel Johnston: Three already for. 341 00:28:27.030 --> 00:28:30.840 Noel Johnston: You want to go on and we'll come back and vote on this here. 342 00:28:32.430 --> 00:28:34.680 Jim Robb: Okay let's move to number two. 343 00:28:36.030 --> 00:28:37.080 Jim Robb: Which is. 344 00:28:40.650 --> 00:28:41.580 Jim Robb: What number number five. 345 00:28:42.870 --> 00:28:43.680 Brian Averill: Number six. 346 00:28:44.100 --> 00:28:46.950 Jim Robb: Number six scooters parking on speedway. 347 00:28:48.180 --> 00:28:49.170 Jim Robb: Ryan go ahead. 348 00:28:50.430 --> 00:29:03.720 Brian Averill: I mean i'm sure most of you have seen this they drew the yellow and white lines on speedway, so I think some of the the tourists, maybe are thinking that those are parking spots for the scooters which they are not. 349 00:29:04.440 --> 00:29:12.480 Jim Robb: Well, I can tell you they're thinking they're parking spaces for everything, because behind Jason hi Jason a talks. 350 00:29:13.560 --> 00:29:28.140 Jim Robb: Number one Venice boulevard their beach their beach parking behind that and that basically between north and south business I have beach parking right now, so instead of populating the parking lot and pulling behind the the old folks home. 351 00:29:28.980 --> 00:29:29.820 Jim Robb: and go to the beach. 352 00:29:29.880 --> 00:29:30.960 Jim Robb: Because there's no signs. 353 00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:37.320 Brian Averill: Okay, well, the bottom line is their scooters all over speedway now, which is a relatively new problem. 354 00:29:38.730 --> 00:29:47.850 Brian Averill: I don't think those lines are helping, so we need to figure out what to do, but we do need to take public comment first, if anyone would like to chime in. 355 00:29:48.900 --> 00:29:49.380 Noel Johnston: i'm. 356 00:29:50.460 --> 00:29:56.550 Noel Johnston: Brian again I have, I have some pictures there I do want to put them up before public comment or not. 357 00:29:58.230 --> 00:30:04.410 Brian Averill: I don't think anyone wants to speak on us Okay, so we can we could go right into board comment. 358 00:30:07.650 --> 00:30:07.920 Brian Averill: way. 359 00:30:08.730 --> 00:30:10.560 Brian Averill: To see if I could find your pictures at all. 360 00:30:11.280 --> 00:30:14.100 Noel Johnston: Okay, I have a PowerPoint if you can get if I can. 361 00:30:14.250 --> 00:30:15.960 Brian Averill: Oh yeah you could you could share your screen. 362 00:30:17.520 --> 00:30:20.520 Noel Johnston: Try here let's say I want and. 363 00:30:23.280 --> 00:30:37.170 evelynsaro: So real quick while you're looking at just begin to Jim rob's point you know the spaces and I mentioned this to Jim rob when I saw him a few weeks back a month or so ago people use those as regular parking spaces and there's no science anywhere. 364 00:30:38.220 --> 00:30:45.270 evelynsaro: On on speedway saying what those are so yeah they look like parking spots if they don't have no parking. 365 00:30:45.510 --> 00:30:46.860 evelynsaro: Then it's you know. 366 00:30:46.980 --> 00:30:48.150 evelynsaro: Which kind of also. 367 00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:51.210 evelynsaro: dovetails into the scooter thing as well. 368 00:30:52.350 --> 00:31:09.540 Jim Robb: Absolutely, and in front of behind that the window they'll literally park from Windward to we're down to my house to get stuff for the window because they now pick up, so I mean I literally have a drive through on speedway down here for window so. 369 00:31:11.430 --> 00:31:16.170 Jim Robb: I think we need a WHO who would, who is in charge go ahead, Robin. 370 00:31:18.300 --> 00:31:34.410 Robin Rudisill: Well, I was just gonna say I know they kick and scream when you asked about putting up signs because they're expensive it takes forever, but what about those stencils things like we had the people do on the clock streets. 371 00:31:34.500 --> 00:31:34.890 I mean. 372 00:31:36.450 --> 00:31:40.260 Robin Rudisill: But it's better than nothing, I think it's a much deeper. 373 00:31:40.500 --> 00:31:49.920 Robin Rudisill: And if they put those on statement every so often and at least you know they can start ticketing their ticketing down here on speedway near Washington. 374 00:31:55.110 --> 00:31:55.380 Jim Robb: alright. 375 00:31:57.450 --> 00:31:58.380 Robin Rudisill: Alright parking. 376 00:32:01.500 --> 00:32:02.040 Jim Robb: Speaking. 377 00:32:02.070 --> 00:32:02.850 Besides. 378 00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:06.450 Jim Robb: This right there. 379 00:32:10.320 --> 00:32:11.520 evelynsaro: hey guys just. 380 00:32:12.000 --> 00:32:12.540 evelynsaro: Take everybody. 381 00:32:12.630 --> 00:32:15.840 evelynsaro: To keep their MIC off when they're not talking, because that. 382 00:32:18.150 --> 00:32:19.080 evelynsaro: static stuffs. 383 00:32:19.170 --> 00:32:19.950 Just a conductor. 384 00:32:24.630 --> 00:32:26.730 Noel Johnston: Brian can you can you see my screen. 385 00:32:28.320 --> 00:32:29.070 Brian Averill: No. 386 00:32:30.570 --> 00:32:31.410 Noel Johnston: Do you want to see my. 387 00:32:36.510 --> 00:32:38.220 Noel Johnston: I got a couple of scooter branches. 388 00:32:40.080 --> 00:32:43.260 Brian Averill: Are you can't share screen, it should be a green button at the bottom. 389 00:32:50.430 --> 00:32:51.150 Noel Johnston: Yes. 390 00:32:59.370 --> 00:33:03.030 Brian Averill: It should probably be desktop you'll see desktop. 391 00:33:05.010 --> 00:33:07.170 Brian Averill: There you go success. 392 00:33:07.590 --> 00:33:08.220 Yes. 393 00:33:09.690 --> 00:33:11.910 Noel Johnston: Oh great I don't I don't have it be you do. 394 00:33:13.560 --> 00:33:17.940 Noel Johnston: Okay, more scooters and April 2022 do you see that one. 395 00:33:18.030 --> 00:33:18.720 Brian Averill: yeah it looks good. 396 00:33:19.470 --> 00:33:30.960 Noel Johnston: Okay, that is right behind the ocean front walk townhomes and it stretches that group of scooter stretches from. 397 00:33:32.460 --> 00:33:42.420 Noel Johnston: One on one down to about 109 and they're they're most mornings, but not all and i'll couple of our owners have flattened. 398 00:33:44.670 --> 00:33:49.470 Noel Johnston: These these scooters but they're they're also left in front of. 399 00:33:50.670 --> 00:33:54.240 Noel Johnston: Our garages and there are a couple of. 400 00:33:58.140 --> 00:34:05.100 Noel Johnston: You can see the scooters it's not just like you look by in that one picture like they were all i'm not all lines there birds and other bikes. 401 00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:12.840 Noel Johnston: In there, but that this picture that's up right now is a pretty typical picture of what it looks like a good deal of the time. 402 00:34:13.200 --> 00:34:27.270 Noel Johnston: And then, this shows you the proximity of that area and the yellow line to our garages it's really hard for the people, right in the Center there to get out of their garages with without plowing into. 403 00:34:28.560 --> 00:34:29.040 Noel Johnston: a scooter. 404 00:34:29.730 --> 00:34:30.780 Noel Johnston: Right so. 405 00:34:31.890 --> 00:34:42.390 Noel Johnston: There are also at this at this corner and this isn't part of part of this discussion, but at the corner down here we come off of the Marine apron. 406 00:34:43.890 --> 00:34:44.850 Noel Johnston: Can you see the pointer. 407 00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:49.410 Noel Johnston: yeah okay that right around this corner here is the Marina. 408 00:34:50.550 --> 00:35:01.710 Noel Johnston: it's a Stub that was left when marine was turned into barner that it's now it's a right away for the police and. 409 00:35:02.790 --> 00:35:05.490 Noel Johnston: etc, but in any case, the. 410 00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:15.960 Noel Johnston: This area, right here is is very confusing because it's the beginning the beginning of speedway right here, this is where speedway starts. 411 00:35:17.100 --> 00:35:26.040 Noel Johnston: The City of Santa Monica has put up signs that say, do not enter and the first time about 15 feet of speedway is is true in Santa Monica. 412 00:35:26.400 --> 00:35:42.720 Noel Johnston: Then it becomes Venice and I don't know if you can see here but there's a big arrow that goes down the street here more obvious in this picture, yes, you can see that the arrow right here the arrow is pointing this way now at the beginning there's an arrow pointing the other way. 413 00:35:45.090 --> 00:35:46.260 Noel Johnston: Thought you know what to do. 414 00:35:46.710 --> 00:35:51.810 Brian Averill: If I could interject cut this out of the arrows and this sort of stuff connect with the scooters is there. 415 00:35:52.050 --> 00:36:05.670 Noel Johnston: Because, because this that there is GEO fencing along here, and one of the reasons that the scooters pile up is because there's GEO fencing i'm glad that the geo fencing is there, I don't understand exactly where it is, but it is there. 416 00:36:06.150 --> 00:36:10.410 Noel Johnston: So the scooter companies in the middle of the night drop off scooters here. 417 00:36:11.430 --> 00:36:21.450 Noel Johnston: and pick up scooters and there's also a lot of vandalism along here people stealing the batteries off the, off the scooters that happens, I would say two or three times a week. 418 00:36:22.770 --> 00:36:43.500 Noel Johnston: was one guy that regularly does it here but, but what what i'm The biggest problem is is there's a lot of traffic around the scooters concerning the scooters leaving the scooters renting the scooters i'm eps just a real pain and it's I think it's dangerous. 419 00:36:43.890 --> 00:36:45.510 Brian Averill: Alright So what should we do folks. 420 00:36:46.110 --> 00:36:49.680 Noel Johnston: I don't know honestly I don't want to make a motion out of this. 421 00:36:50.070 --> 00:36:56.130 Brian Averill: Well, I think, Robin was onto something with the stencils simon's just takes forever it's usually ugly. 422 00:36:57.780 --> 00:37:01.230 Brian Averill: style, do you know tomorrow if they wanted to. 423 00:37:02.220 --> 00:37:07.710 Jim Robb: I think we should contact Well, first of all, I think we should contact the scooter companies again. 424 00:37:08.550 --> 00:37:17.370 Jim Robb: And then I think we should also get online with la do T, which did the scent which did the stencils for us for all the walk streets. 425 00:37:17.820 --> 00:37:29.100 Jim Robb: And I think that we should tell them that this about this situation and that we need stencilled stencilled that you cannot park the scooters there. 426 00:37:29.880 --> 00:37:43.530 Jim Robb: and go back to where it should begin that they need to be docked and placed in the 20 to put the 22 places there that are their load allowed to drop them off. 427 00:37:44.610 --> 00:37:49.350 Jim Robb: I see of dropping the shit off wherever they can again and they're not following the rules. 428 00:37:49.920 --> 00:37:59.070 Jim Robb: So I think we have to get back on up and say hey you need to follow the rules, you need to stick, these were where the 22 locations are. 429 00:37:59.610 --> 00:38:09.030 Jim Robb: And these are now stenciled and if you don't if you don't do what you're supposed to do we want the whole speedway GEO fence to put their asses out on Pacific. 430 00:38:11.400 --> 00:38:12.420 Jim Robb: that's what I think. 431 00:38:13.260 --> 00:38:15.270 Brian Averill: I don't know if we could fit all that into emotion, but. 432 00:38:15.780 --> 00:38:16.050 Right. 433 00:38:17.310 --> 00:38:27.960 Brian Averill: I mean, as far as US dealing with the city agencies, we can certainly ask for know scooter parking stencils from upon and transportation deputies. 434 00:38:28.530 --> 00:38:31.950 Jim Robb: la keep the led ot I think the ones that are sprayed those. 435 00:38:33.300 --> 00:38:39.240 Brian Averill: I know that Eric bruins was involved in the ones on the walk streets so. 436 00:38:39.300 --> 00:38:40.020 Jim Robb: Okay, great. 437 00:38:40.230 --> 00:38:41.730 Brian Averill: If we do make a motion, he should got. 438 00:38:42.360 --> 00:38:42.660 Okay. 439 00:38:44.370 --> 00:38:45.300 Jim Robb: So what do you think. 440 00:38:47.130 --> 00:38:47.970 Jim Robb: They should read man. 441 00:38:48.750 --> 00:38:50.100 Brian Averill: At least a certain to your hand. 442 00:39:00.030 --> 00:39:10.170 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: i'm trying hard not to give credit to tiptoe or miras, but they do manage to get some signage and things done with their connections through do T. 443 00:39:11.190 --> 00:39:12.840 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: In the parking transportation committee. 444 00:39:13.500 --> 00:39:13.860 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Okay. 445 00:39:14.220 --> 00:39:15.030 Jim Robb: Just good all right. 446 00:39:16.530 --> 00:39:29.280 Jim Robb: Well, if we get emotionally developed we'll do it well we'll do a as we can we vote on our we should we do this, and that do a joint me Robert will do a meeting with me whenever we want so. 447 00:39:30.180 --> 00:39:32.610 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Okay, just throwing that out there Okay, thank you. 448 00:39:34.020 --> 00:39:46.050 Brian Averill: I think it's perfectly reasonable to requests know scooters penciling in the new lanes that they just painted they didn't foresee this happening or did I and it's it is happening so let's try to fix that at least. 449 00:39:46.380 --> 00:39:59.850 Jim Robb: We know what their game plan with with these and the other side, where everybody's parky because it's going to get worse it's not going to get better with like behind co needs houses behind the one Venice boulevard. 450 00:40:01.110 --> 00:40:03.690 Jim Robb: I mean it's good people are going to be parking instead of the parking lots. 451 00:40:04.440 --> 00:40:06.030 Brian Averill: that's why we're asking for stencils. 452 00:40:06.600 --> 00:40:18.540 evelynsaro: yeah and I think it needs to as much as I hate to say it, but it should be specific, you say no parking the scooters going to park there, but if he does say no scooter parking the cars are going to park there, so it means to say. 453 00:40:21.930 --> 00:40:30.600 evelynsaro: Well, I mean no parking whatsoever, or no scooter or a car park, I mean it needs to because you're going to get people there, say, well, you doesn't say this, it just says this. 454 00:40:31.110 --> 00:40:32.820 Brian Averill: Vehicle vehicle. 455 00:40:35.310 --> 00:40:37.290 evelynsaro: If they consider a scooter vehicle yeah. 456 00:40:37.920 --> 00:40:40.140 Brian Averill: We don't want to read a paragraph on the pavement here. 457 00:40:40.290 --> 00:40:43.620 evelynsaro: No, no, I know I am just I am just saying, because. 458 00:40:44.880 --> 00:40:53.130 evelynsaro: I made that comment, the other day to somebody to try to tell them not to park because they were also going to block someone's garage and that was the first thing they said they said well. 459 00:40:54.660 --> 00:41:01.470 evelynsaro: What parking is here, and I said well there's no parking here so well done says nothing I was like oh. 460 00:41:01.860 --> 00:41:02.340 Whatever. 461 00:41:04.620 --> 00:41:04.770 Noel Johnston: I. 462 00:41:05.100 --> 00:41:06.990 Noel Johnston: Have I have, I have a question. 463 00:41:07.140 --> 00:41:16.050 Noel Johnston: I want you to say stem selling do you mean you mean these these thick lines, like the yellow line that's around the scooters they're behind our building. 464 00:41:16.200 --> 00:41:22.320 Brian Averill: Know i'll walk straight here, for instance on paloma it's literally the circle, with the scooter with the line through it. 465 00:41:22.860 --> 00:41:27.540 Brian Averill: Oh, you can't read scooters on the Wall Street and it's painted on on the ground. 466 00:41:27.960 --> 00:41:36.480 Noel Johnston: Okay, because somebody has I don't know, maybe you tell I do to put those yellow line down most of speedway whether. 467 00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:41.580 Jim Robb: it's got all the speedway Noel yeah isn't all the way to robin's have from your. 468 00:41:41.580 --> 00:41:42.570 Jim Robb: house Robin tell. 469 00:41:42.630 --> 00:41:46.680 Noel Johnston: Now that's that's what i'm saying I personally think this is wrong. 470 00:41:47.430 --> 00:41:57.690 evelynsaro: yeah those those stencils would be great if there's already, one that has a scooter and then it just there just needs to be boards to so cars don't also take advantage of it as well. 471 00:41:57.870 --> 00:41:58.650 Brian Averill: So why don't we. 472 00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:01.890 Noel Johnston: fell in line for what are they for. 473 00:42:03.210 --> 00:42:09.480 Jim Robb: that's what I was trying to get to who who approved them in who do we ask what their what their. 474 00:42:10.080 --> 00:42:26.100 Jim Robb: I, like him, because it makes the one way look more like a weird way, so I don't have them going up and down broadway on speedway which has happened, less it's they did that, but I just don't know what they're for and why they did it. 475 00:42:26.640 --> 00:42:26.910 I was. 476 00:42:28.020 --> 00:42:40.230 Brian Averill: There was to emphasize the fact that it's one way and the white line was supposed to be sort of the scooter lane for people actually writing them yes and it's just causing more confusion than anything. 477 00:42:40.260 --> 00:42:42.810 Jim Robb: So who do you who put who did that who do we need to talk to you. 478 00:42:44.130 --> 00:42:48.600 Brian Averill: Again CD 11 was definitely involved in that Alec and Eric. 479 00:42:49.410 --> 00:42:56.010 Jim Robb: So okay So what do we want to do emotion, just for the stencils or do we want to do emotion include. 480 00:42:57.270 --> 00:43:01.170 Jim Robb: car parking and have CD 11 tell us what's going on. 481 00:43:02.400 --> 00:43:02.670 evelynsaro: Why. 482 00:43:03.870 --> 00:43:06.510 evelynsaro: aren't you write this whereas. 483 00:43:09.720 --> 00:43:11.010 evelynsaro: They are existing. 484 00:43:12.510 --> 00:43:14.220 evelynsaro: yellow lines. 485 00:43:15.270 --> 00:43:19.320 evelynsaro: As well as white lines on either side, I mean I don't even know what they're called. 486 00:43:20.220 --> 00:43:21.270 Brian Averill: lanes, maybe. 487 00:43:22.110 --> 00:43:25.740 evelynsaro: Those aren't lanes because they're solid lines that's what's confusing. 488 00:43:25.950 --> 00:43:29.790 evelynsaro: But maybe, whereas, whereas the recent painting on speedway. 489 00:43:30.510 --> 00:43:32.040 evelynsaro: is causing confusion. 490 00:43:33.150 --> 00:43:33.420 Jim Robb: yeah. 491 00:43:34.710 --> 00:43:35.310 Jim Robb: The first one. 492 00:43:36.570 --> 00:43:37.200 Jim Robb: Had where. 493 00:43:37.530 --> 00:43:39.900 evelynsaro: We, we should have. 494 00:43:41.490 --> 00:43:46.800 evelynsaro: No scooter emblem or insignia or logo whatever you want to call it. 495 00:43:46.980 --> 00:43:54.450 Jim Robb: Whereas scooters and cars or parking here and increase confusion and. 496 00:43:54.960 --> 00:43:58.770 evelynsaro: walking people's blocking people's access to their. 497 00:43:59.700 --> 00:44:00.870 evelynsaro: Homes homes. 498 00:44:01.140 --> 00:44:01.920 Noel Johnston: and businesses. 499 00:44:03.270 --> 00:44:18.660 Jim Robb: yep we suggest to come up with a solution and the be tied peach use the pre existing painted street art to emphasize no scooter party. 500 00:44:19.860 --> 00:44:20.820 evelynsaro: And no car parking. 501 00:44:21.030 --> 00:44:22.350 Noel Johnston: that's really isn't. 502 00:44:25.740 --> 00:44:26.310 Jim Robb: Okay right. 503 00:44:28.290 --> 00:44:28.830 Noel Johnston: on that one. 504 00:44:28.920 --> 00:44:31.830 Robin Rudisill: I think i've got it I think i've got it you want me to read it. 505 00:44:32.520 --> 00:44:32.790 Please. 506 00:44:33.960 --> 00:44:34.410 Robin Rudisill: I think. 507 00:44:35.790 --> 00:44:47.340 Robin Rudisill: Whereas the recent line painting on speedway is causing confusion, whereas scooters and cars are parking in the public right of way on speedway alley and blocking access to homes and businesses. 508 00:44:47.670 --> 00:44:58.470 Robin Rudisill: Therefore dnc request the Department of Transportation to immediately provide signs, or at least stencils to make clear no parking of autos or scooters is allowed on. 509 00:45:03.480 --> 00:45:04.200 Robin Rudisill: Tell moved. 510 00:45:05.550 --> 00:45:05.670 Brian Averill: On. 511 00:45:07.590 --> 00:45:08.040 Brian Averill: A second. 512

Johnston: The ocean front walk committee request that these campers be removed in a compassionate fashion, according to normal protocol, which would include an offer of housing and or services. 539 00:46:44.310 --> 00:46:47.850 Brian Averill: beautiful but we'll just change the ocean funnel up to the nc. 540 00:46:48.030 --> 00:46:49.200 Noel Johnston: To the answer okay. 541 00:46:49.950 -->

00:47:34.110 Jim Robb: Word comment. 554 00:47:35.220 --> 00:47:38.760 Brian Averill: I thought we did Nick I feel like you have board comment yeah. 555 00:47:41.580 --> 00:47:44.040 Nick Antonicello: This resolution almost everyone calls it. 556 00:47:45.060 --> 00:47:47.190 Nick Antonicello: Is that it's it's self defeating. 557 00:47:48.690 --> 00:48:02.940 Nick Antonicello: you're saying that you want the people move from the beach, at the same time you have this language of compassion and where are they going to go we're an advisory board that's not our role, our role is not to where they go our goal is to have a specific. 558 00:48:04.710 --> 00:48:10.500 Nick Antonicello: specific recommendation, you want to make to the vendors neighborhood Council in the neighborhood Councils and makes it to the proper authority. 559 00:48:11.040 --> 00:48:22.650 Nick Antonicello: Everybody knows bone checked out he's not doing anything you put language in here that they have to go somewhere else it's self defeating you might as well, not even put the motion to the floor. 560 00:48:23.460 --> 00:48:29.190 Nick Antonicello: You can have both you can't want to be both things to everybody, we have one tablet on it. 561 00:48:29.700 --> 00:48:43.770 Nick Antonicello: i'm gonna finish we have sort of comment and you want to pacify public comment at the end of the day, if you want this motion to have T shirts just simply say, one is people removed because it's illegal, end of story. 562 00:48:44.880 --> 00:48:45.240 Nick Antonicello: Okay. 563 00:48:46.410 --> 00:48:51.540 Jim Robb: All right now let's get the other public any other the comment breadboard. 564 00:48:52.020 --> 00:48:53.400 Noel Johnston: yeah yeah that's cool I wanna. 565 00:48:54.330 --> 00:49:06.600 Noel Johnston: I just want to say that that I know what nick's talking about and I mentioned it briefly myself, however, I think that all we have said here is an offer of housing and or services, I don't think we we made any promises. 566 00:49:07.380 --> 00:49:09.060 Nick Antonicello: We don't have the ability to even. 567 00:49:09.180 --> 00:49:13.170 Noel Johnston: offer I don't I don't think this removes all of its chief. 568 00:49:14.220 --> 00:49:24.030 Nick Antonicello: they've heard it all, because we can offer them anything we're not assuming service provider we're an advisory volunteer board that's what we are. 569 00:49:26.040 --> 00:49:26.790 Jim Robb: All right, colleen. 570 00:49:27.600 --> 00:49:28.080 yeah. 571 00:49:29.160 --> 00:49:33.600 evelynsaro: So the thing is about saying this Nick, which is why I brought it up was because. 572 00:49:34.710 --> 00:49:40.890 evelynsaro: Yes, everybody knows it but everybody doesn't ever want to acknowledge that's what's supposed to happen and. 573 00:49:43.950 --> 00:49:47.580 evelynsaro: And we're advising that they need to find them a place to go. 574 00:49:49.260 --> 00:49:50.850 evelynsaro: As far as an advisory board goes. 575 00:49:51.300 --> 00:49:55.800 Nick Antonicello: You got a councilman now for 10 years wasn't built the stitcher house. 576 00:49:56.820 --> 00:50:03.510 Nick Antonicello: Okay, and here he is in the last month of this term of office you think this is going to move in one way or the other. 577 00:50:04.410 --> 00:50:06.660 Jim Robb: We don't even have we need the lapd. 578 00:50:07.830 --> 00:50:08.940 Brian Averill: All we can do is ask me. 579 00:50:10.020 --> 00:50:11.040 Jim Robb: All right, let's do a bow. 580 00:50:12.810 --> 00:50:14.400 Jim Robb: i'll go with you first Nick.

Robb: know I ended cooling speak on this since she had a lot to do with ballers. 595 00:50:56.040 --> 00:51:01.110 Brian Averill: Okay well Noel sort of inspired this fun and I know Kelly knows a lot about it, too, so let them. 596 00:51:02.460 --> 00:51:07.590 Noel Johnston: Let me find my presentation my PowerPoint here all right well. 597 00:51:08.970 --> 00:51:10.440 Noel Johnston: Listen ocean. 598 00:51:12.090 --> 00:51:12.750 Noel Johnston: haha. 599 00:51:14.880 --> 00:51:16.110 Noel Johnston: Can you still get my screen. 600 00:51:16.680 --> 00:51:17.340 Brian Averill: But you need to. 601 00:51:17.370 --> 00:51:19.290 Noel Johnston: show you that again okay. 602 00:51:19.470 --> 00:51:21.030 Brian Averill: green button and then desktop. 603 00:51:22.140 --> 00:51:25.380 Brian Averill: We are we are down to about a half hour, just so everyone knows. 604 00:51:27.660 --> 00:51:28.890 Jim Robb: what's gonna get a dead Brian. 605 00:51:29.490 --> 00:51:30.300 what's good. 606 00:51:32.610 --> 00:51:33.060 what's this. 607 00:51:40.920 --> 00:51:41.400 Noel Johnston: well. 608 00:51:42.540 --> 00:51:46.050 Nick Antonicello: For future meetings you want to put a time limit and all these we. 609 00:51:47.520 --> 00:51:48.150 Nick Antonicello: want to. 610 00:51:55.980 --> 00:51:56.640 Noel Johnston: about that. 611 00:51:57.780 --> 00:52:13.530 Noel Johnston: Okay ah, I am referring to a couple of specific signs these two are outrageous I have called the number on the orange sign several times today, I finally I. 612 00:52:14.310 --> 00:52:18.390 Noel Johnston: got somebody to call me back from this number and they gave me and yet another number. 613 00:52:18.690 --> 00:52:35.310 Noel Johnston: I have tried calling the department of public works and couldn't find a person to talk to, as you can see these things have been expired since 828 21 they're collecting graffiti on the back, also a lot of trash, as you can see um. 614 00:52:36.480 --> 00:52:47.460 Noel Johnston: they're terrific eyesore and they're huge and they never should have been put up in the first place, and in addition I think they are actually in Santa Monica which is interesting. 615 00:52:48.780 --> 00:52:54.510 Noel Johnston: I tried to set my tells me they're in Santa Monica but they're not taking them down because la put the box okay. 616 00:52:56.460 --> 00:53:07.380 Noel Johnston: I want to also point out to you that an awful lot of the signage that is on the boardwalk not just here but on the boardwalk looks like this. 617 00:53:07.800 --> 00:53:19.350 Noel Johnston: it's all messed up this poll over here to the left of the screen and I didn't really do a very good job, but that's got a whole bunch of signs, I asked my own owners. 618 00:53:20.310 --> 00:53:31.830 Noel Johnston: In a homeowner's association meeting or nine of us in a 10 unit condominium if they know what that Paul said, now that pole has been there for over 10 years. 619 00:53:32.730 --> 00:53:48.990 Noel Johnston: And the only sign that to have the owners remembered was the top, one which is the evacuation side and nobody nobody knew anything couldn't say anything about any of the other signs what was on them what wasn't on them, and they were unaware of this sign altogether. 620 00:53:51.210 --> 00:54:01.620 Noel Johnston: So I thought that was sort of interesting that people are either in Europe to these are they can't read them anyway, I mean this time I hear is unreadable because it's been so stickered over that just a mess. 621 00:54:02.100 --> 00:54:04.500 Jim Robb: yeah okay i'd like it. 622 00:54:04.950 --> 00:54:17.670 Noel Johnston: Might my point there is that I would like, I would like these two signs in particular to come down and I don't understand i've written the bottoms Office about it i've written to the department extreme services about it la do T about it. 623 00:54:19.980 --> 00:54:21.930 Noel Johnston: be able to get them removed okay. 624 00:54:22.050 --> 00:54:25.530 Jim Robb: awesome so Brian well. 625 00:54:27.300 --> 00:54:27.600 Brian Averill: Yes. 626 00:54:27.660 --> 00:54:30.540 Jim Robb: We want to just write a motion about the science for the bollards. 627 00:54:32.130 --> 00:54:35.640 Noel Johnston: You want to talk about you want to talk about the ball is just for a second. 628 00:54:36.960 --> 00:54:37.620 Brian Averill: Well yeah. 629 00:54:38.190 --> 00:54:39.870 Brian Averill: we're gonna do emotion about the signage. 630 00:54:40.410 --> 00:54:41.370 Noel Johnston: wonder the scientific. 631 00:54:41.940 --> 00:54:43.410 Brian Averill: I can't cram it all together. 632 00:54:43.560 --> 00:54:55.500 Nick Antonicello: You don't need a motion to take down expired son or you can do is direct president of the dnc send a letter to the appropriate Agency to have these things removed. 633 00:54:55.830 --> 00:54:56.520 Nick Antonicello: You don't even know. 634 00:54:57.300 --> 00:54:58.800 Noel Johnston: Like I can't get anybody. 635 00:54:59.520 --> 00:55:13.530 Nick Antonicello: Well, but the point i'm trying to make you know well, is that Jim is the dnc President and he would ascend an official letter from the dnc saying we have unexpired signs down here advantage when he had been taken down that's going to go. 636 00:55:14.550 --> 00:55:32.340 Nick Antonicello: In my experience, a lot further than us sending an innocuous motion to the dnc and then the dnc having to vote in the motion just have love talk to Jim your eyes and say look, can you contact the appropriate agency and get the signs down in the story okay. 637 00:55:32.730 --> 00:55:33.000 Noel Johnston: Okay. 638 00:55:33.180 --> 00:55:33.810 Jim Robb: I like that. 639 00:55:34.020 --> 00:55:34.500 That. 640 00:55:35.730 --> 00:55:48.660 Jim Robb: Okay, so we will all help them help facilitate that Brian will do so The next question is what was the problem with the ballers and is it decided about the bollards or the bollards himself. 641 00:55:49.200 --> 00:55:49.500 well. 642 00:55:51.510 --> 00:55:53.580 Noel Johnston: Okay, can you see this picture of a baller. 643 00:55:54.090 --> 00:55:56.190 Noel Johnston: Yes, okay these. 644 00:55:57.930 --> 00:56:02.640 Noel Johnston: I am assuming that these models have been put up more in in. 645 00:56:04.050 --> 00:56:08.100 Noel Johnston: The, these are the only ones that have been put up their own likeness on the boardwalk Am I right. 646 00:56:08.610 --> 00:56:09.390 Jim Robb: All the way now. 647 00:56:09.840 --> 00:56:15.480 Noel Johnston: they're supposed to be retractable Oh well, we were we are Homeowners association was told that we would be given. 648 00:56:15.840 --> 00:56:36.210 Noel Johnston: a lesson in how to operate these bullets and other ones on the North end of the building there for our manually operated I I honestly think that I can operate those and i'm not going to tell you how I know I can do that, but I have tried and I seem to be able to operate the ones. 649 00:56:37.890 --> 00:56:45.750 Noel Johnston: On this end, right here, I can't operate their hydraulic and they're apparently operated from from one of these two cabinets. 650 00:56:46.050 --> 00:56:46.800 Jim Robb: Those were all. 651 00:56:46.920 --> 00:56:47.550 Noel Johnston: Those were all. 652 00:56:47.790 --> 00:56:52.200 Noel Johnston: Really kind of our Homeowners association is pretty pissed off about because we had a. 653 00:56:52.830 --> 00:56:57.720 Noel Johnston: Nice planning here and they just stuck those in there, without asking this or talking or anything. 654 00:56:57.810 --> 00:57:01.170 Jim Robb: They just want us to say that's to save people's lives so that's. 655 00:57:01.650 --> 00:57:02.910 Jim Robb: that's what those are therefore. 656 00:57:04.170 --> 00:57:07.500 Noel Johnston: I don't believe it for a hot second but fine i'm. 657 00:57:08.520 --> 00:57:09.120 Jim Robb: going. 658 00:57:09.270 --> 00:57:23.850 Noel Johnston: We should we should know how to operate those there, there should be designated people that live on the on the boardwalk that know how to operate these things that fireman have asked me if I know how to operate them, I had a fire in my house. 659 00:57:24.450 --> 00:57:24.930 Noel Johnston: Oh, this would. 660 00:57:25.020 --> 00:57:27.960 Noel Johnston: This would prevent fire engines from getting to my house. 661 00:57:28.290 --> 00:57:41.010 Jim Robb: Absolutely that's Kelly lives down there and it would prevent that so Kelly You helped put this motion through with your tenure, could you tell us what you think it when it's supposed to be done, and if you know anything more about it. 662 00:57:41.490 --> 00:57:43.590 evelynsaro: Well, I mean years ago. 663 00:57:44.700 --> 00:57:47.910 evelynsaro: When Taylor was talking to us about it um. 664 00:57:49.290 --> 00:57:55.680 evelynsaro: There were only retractable and the fire department and lapd are should be only are the only ones supposedly that can do that. 665 00:57:56.340 --> 00:58:01.950 evelynsaro: And then the ones, and then there's ones that aren't retractable that are better permanent that you can't do anything with. 666 00:58:03.240 --> 00:58:11.460 evelynsaro: So I don't know about that seems logical, because I know that there was going to be power stations nerem from what Taylor had said. 667 00:58:12.930 --> 00:58:25.350 evelynsaro: So God damn I don't know what to tell you I mean I it's great that Noel that they're having Homeowners but again that's a that's a responsibility that the city should not be putting on Homeowners. 668 00:58:26.370 --> 00:58:27.600 Brian Averill: but rather something. 669 00:58:28.350 --> 00:58:41.520 evelynsaro: You know that if something happens and you can't take those down Noel and they don't get to your House, then the finger comes back to you, and it shouldn't be coming back to you that should be there on the county the city or parks and recs so I don't know what's going on with that. 670 00:58:42.660 --> 00:58:43.080 Jim Robb: Robin. 671 00:58:43.110 --> 00:58:53.460 Robin Rudisill: Do you have anything yeah I was just gonna add I don't know if these can be folded in but I don't see why we need this the ugly signs the big end sign and whatever the other one else's. 672 00:58:53.820 --> 00:59:01.050 Robin Rudisill: As well as the bollards I mean all we need is the ballers and they think they can take down, you know that's a blight on our beautiful ocean. 673 00:59:03.510 --> 00:59:11.490 Robin Rudisill: And then the other thing is down here at Washington people can get right on and oceanfront walk there's no ball there's no anything I. 674 00:59:11.790 --> 00:59:12.060 want. 675 00:59:13.170 --> 00:59:21.030 Jim Robb: there's what's in front of your House down from your House but they're not the, I would like to know where they're going to activate it because they're all in except for a few. 676 00:59:21.540 --> 00:59:31.080 Jim Robb: I just need to know when they're good at, because you gotta break that the edge of where were terrorists was they they put those in that's where they were in front of. 677 00:59:31.740 --> 00:59:32.250 Jim Robb: Your bear. 678 00:59:33.570 --> 00:59:33.930 Robin Rudisill: I think. 679 00:59:34.470 --> 00:59:35.130 Jim Robb: Like so. 680 00:59:36.570 --> 00:59:44.340 Robin Rudisill: You can pull up like you're going to go through the turnstile to go into the parking lot and then just turn right and get right on the ocean for a walk I think yeah. 681 00:59:44.910 --> 00:59:47.130 Jim Robb: Well, there should be ones in front of their bikes but. 682 00:59:48.840 --> 00:59:49.290 Nick Antonicello: you're right. 683 00:59:49.770 --> 00:59:56.250 Jim Robb: yeah, so we need to find that we need to find out Nick and tell me how we could do this, or do we need a motion to find out what they're going to be. 684 00:59:56.820 --> 01:00:03.240 Nick Antonicello: You don't need emotion, I would just what I would do is i'd invite someone from the La fire department to our next meeting. 685 01:00:05.040 --> 01:00:05.340 Jim Robb: Okay. 686 01:00:05.880 --> 01:00:15.990 Nick Antonicello: I mean, probably the best thing and then Noel can ask whatever questions you have, for your followers and maybe they would give her a key I don't know I don't know all the specifics of it. 687 01:00:16.380 --> 01:00:22.470 Nick Antonicello: But, again, I don't think you need emotion I just think I reached out to La invite the meeting and have them address the ball. 688 01:00:22.980 --> 01:00:26.130 Jim Robb: got it I think that's a great idea what does everybody else think. 689 01:00:27.510 --> 01:00:30.990 evelynsaro: You should include CD 11 to whoever that person is. 690 01:00:31.020 --> 01:00:32.700 evelynsaro: Because they also are going to know. 691 01:00:32.880 --> 01:00:36.300 evelynsaro: lapd if the fire department comes back and says we know nothing about that. 692 01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:38.160 evelynsaro: 11 ship. 693 01:00:38.700 --> 01:00:43.410 Noel Johnston: I wanna I want to say that our firemen asked me how to operate them. 694 01:00:43.890 --> 01:00:44.220 Noel Johnston: Okay. 695 01:00:44.880 --> 01:00:51.000 Nick Antonicello: So I think, well, it goes to the notion of how many how many employees to take to screw in a lightbulb. 696 01:00:51.300 --> 01:00:51.600 yeah. 697 01:00:52.710 --> 01:00:53.760 Nick Antonicello: This is what you deal with. 698 01:00:54.330 --> 01:00:59.580 Jim Robb: We can get Ahold of the guy that came down with all those fires of the black gentleman I can't remember his name. 699 01:00:59.910 --> 01:01:01.530 Jim Robb: But he could definitely help us out. 700 01:01:01.770 --> 01:01:08.880 Nick Antonicello: So dad knows who that person is you could probably get him to come to me okay. 701 01:01:10.230 --> 01:01:22.230 Noel Johnston: One other thing if we do get that meeting together, I think we also want to talk to them about maintenance, because in that picture that I just had up a second ago, you can see how sand has gotten into those and because. 702 01:01:24.660 --> 01:01:28.020 Noel Johnston: I did figure out how to operate them on my North and. 703 01:01:29.550 --> 01:01:35.940 Noel Johnston: I pulled what up and if we have another couple of sandstorms they're going to be an operative. 704 01:01:37.050 --> 01:01:38.430 Noel Johnston: They will operate them. 705 01:01:38.550 --> 01:01:42.930 Nick Antonicello: Your dream one point I wanted to make about the sun is everyone seems to be concerned about the sign. 706 01:01:44.370 --> 01:02:00.180 Nick Antonicello: When technicality then she'll appeals office handle all those new science down to be simple, we had that meeting and and all the signage was empty does that work on the concrete there that when the bike path right foot and allows us where the five paths that. 707 01:02:01.170 --> 01:02:01.830 Nick Antonicello: Order there. 708 01:02:02.010 --> 01:02:07.410 Nick Antonicello: And that woman who was sheila fuels, he was the one thing. 709 01:02:08.730 --> 01:02:09.000 Nick Antonicello: I mean. 710 01:02:10.950 --> 01:02:12.570 Nick Antonicello: I don't know i'm just i'm just bringing it up. 711 01:02:13.200 --> 01:02:18.150 Jim Robb: Okay, well, I think I think this motion, Brian are you still here not. 712 01:02:19.740 --> 01:02:19.980 Brian Averill: Yet. 713 01:02:21.420 --> 01:02:21.750 Jim Robb: Okay. 714 01:02:22.320 --> 01:02:23.730 Brian Averill: What is this emotion, or we can. 715 01:02:24.000 --> 01:02:28.500 Jim Robb: I think I think we're going to push the most well I think we're going to push the motion on the bollards. 716 01:02:28.890 --> 01:02:38.910 Jim Robb: To the next meeting and get the fire department and anybody else we need to know all the all the things so that we all know, what's going on with it, I don't think it needs to be emotion. 717 01:02:39.840 --> 01:02:49.020 Jim Robb: I think, is, I think, as far as the signs are concerned, I think that that's the bigger picture of what I was trying to put together. 718 01:02:49.470 --> 01:03:05.640 Jim Robb: which we will talk about briefly, which is the Venice Community plan as it pertains to the boardwalk and the Olympics and how we as a group, the to push for some sort of urban planner slash. 719 01:03:06.270 --> 01:03:13.590 Jim Robb: park planner and soda for the parks and REC to help us plan, what we want to do. 720 01:03:14.370 --> 01:03:33.810 Jim Robb: Pre Olympics to change our boardwalk to make it more relevant for the Olympics and clear out these dirt hills that have grass on it that we no longer kid water and all it is, is a Sandberg and try to see what we could do so, I think I think there needs to be a. 721 01:03:35.340 --> 01:03:49.920 Jim Robb: comprehensive plan for the parks and recs part of the boardwalk all the way down the boardwalk so that we could make it look presentable for what's going to be happening in the years to come. 722 01:03:50.580 --> 01:03:55.950 Nick Antonicello: But the point of water, and I do is jump into Venice neighborhood Council meeting about four months ago. 723 01:03:57.240 --> 01:03:58.770 Nick Antonicello: They are no events events. 724 01:03:59.310 --> 01:04:06.330 Nick Antonicello: For the 2028 Olympics, I told that to Jim you're, as I mentioned, did I put emotion again that emotion was never heard. 725 01:04:07.350 --> 01:04:17.220 Nick Antonicello: You know, you want to talk about putting some kind of task force together from this to me to address the Olympics that might be a good idea. 726 01:04:17.550 --> 01:04:27.990 Nick Antonicello: But right now the only the only events for the 28 Olympics are in Santa Monica and along from a from a water beach perspective. 727 01:04:29.640 --> 01:04:29.940 Jim Robb: Okay. 728 01:04:29.970 --> 01:04:36.450 Jim Robb: You get absolutely and I would love to figure out how we could switch it from Santa Monica I don't know if that's possible but. 729 01:04:37.050 --> 01:04:52.290 Jim Robb: We will we'll try that but so that was just my idea I think trying to come up with a concept, whether it's the Olympics or not, for how shitty the the grassy areas of the of the ocean for a walk like. 730 01:04:53.520 --> 01:05:00.090 Jim Robb: that we need to figure out something and have somebody help us design, what we have to have for the future. 731 01:05:00.870 --> 01:05:09.690 Brian Averill: guys guys circling back to the baller agenda item that we're on, we agreed to sort of learn a little bit more about this, and maybe invite some folks to the next meeting. 732 01:05:10.140 --> 01:05:11.460 Jim Robb: Right okay. 733 01:05:11.520 --> 01:05:13.560 Brian Averill: So are we closing that item and moving on. 734 01:05:13.860 --> 01:05:14.520 Jim Robb: Yes, sir. 735 01:05:15.330 --> 01:05:16.800 Brian Averill: Excellent number eight. 736 01:05:19.770 --> 01:05:22.170 Jim Robb: rock sidewalk in Washington boulevard. 737 01:05:22.620 --> 01:05:26.040 Brian Averill: I think this was from Robin Robin if you want to expand on this a little. 738 01:05:26.460 --> 01:05:33.000 Robin Rudisill: yeah we're down here on Washington, the Pier House has built a. 739 01:05:33.930 --> 01:05:37.530 Robin Rudisill: I don't know some kind of lattice covering over the sidewalk. 740 01:05:37.800 --> 01:05:44.730 Robin Rudisill: Between the restaurant and the end of the sidewalk and it was shocking when I first saw it looks like they've just. 741 01:05:44.940 --> 01:05:54.090 Robin Rudisill: privatized the sidewalk you can still walk through there but there's hardly any room, most of the time when they're working and people are sitting in chairs and you know busboys are going around. 742 01:05:54.510 --> 01:06:08.070 Robin Rudisill: You know there's not even three feet wide for the handicapped and they and they made this little area out in the street, where the bikes actually normally go that people think they have to go around the normal side. 743 01:06:09.090 --> 01:06:24.420 Robin Rudisill: And it's tremendous it's shocking can't do that, I mean, I know that that permission to to serve people out in the street in the parking area, but this is not what they're doing they're taking advantage and trying to make the restaurant bigger and taken over the sidewalk so for. 744 01:06:24.870 --> 01:06:27.240 Jim Robb: You guys, to see that it's the same borders. 745 01:06:27.540 --> 01:06:33.720 Jim Robb: To save owners of the whaler right at least you could at least you can walk through the sidewalk in front of the whaler. 746 01:06:33.930 --> 01:06:39.390 Jim Robb: Right oh I, I completely agree with you, as far as the yeah that should be allowed. 747 01:06:40.770 --> 01:06:52.800 Nick Antonicello: It appears that the public access, no longer exists on the sidewalk and then to compound that the the seating they had in the street they've taken down. 748 01:06:53.310 --> 01:07:06.630 Nick Antonicello: yeah So there you have this as Robin said you had this overhead so if you're walking if he if you're in front of the knicks liquor and you're walking towards the beach you think you can't walk on the sidewalk anymore. 749 01:07:07.080 --> 01:07:09.960 Nick Antonicello: Right looks to be appears to be part of the restaurant. 750 01:07:11.520 --> 01:07:12.660 Jim Robb: Well, I can tell you. 751 01:07:13.620 --> 01:07:19.890 evelynsaro: Have have Robin have you talked to a monique contrasts your the assault solo. 752 01:07:20.280 --> 01:07:25.830 Robin Rudisill: know I tried talking to some of the you know the owners and they didn't give a shit. 753 01:07:26.430 --> 01:07:34.530 evelynsaro: Okay, just because that you know it was kind of a similar here at our building except here at our apartment complex management was kind of on my side, where. 754 01:07:35.550 --> 01:07:40.230 evelynsaro: Some residents decided they were just going to take the boardwalk and make it their front yard. 755 01:07:40.770 --> 01:07:41.190 and 756 01:07:42.540 --> 01:07:45.330 evelynsaro: And we had the we had lapd. 757 01:07:46.530 --> 01:07:47.400 evelynsaro: and 758 01:07:48.540 --> 01:07:56.910 evelynsaro: Also, someone from CD 11 because they were trying to do stuff and there was things they couldn't do, but this is different because it was I mean they finally got it down but it took a while. 759 01:07:57.330 --> 01:08:07.650 evelynsaro: So if the complaint goes to lapd and that literally is not legal, they should be able to start ticketing them, which may be different for an actual business business, you know ours was a. 760 01:08:08.340 --> 01:08:15.390 evelynsaro: Business slash residential and that's where they got hooked up on, and they kind of got their hands tied, for legal reasons. 761 01:08:15.690 --> 01:08:16.230 evelynsaro: But i'm. 762 01:08:16.440 --> 01:08:16.800 Nick Antonicello: Really, the. 763 01:08:16.830 --> 01:08:18.210 evelynsaro: Only people posted on it. 764 01:08:19.080 --> 01:08:20.250 Nick Antonicello: Like we won't. 765 01:08:22.050 --> 01:08:26.040 Nick Antonicello: put any kind of application before you do the work that they did. 766 01:08:26.610 --> 01:08:28.470 Robin Rudisill: Now yeah okay. 767 01:08:28.860 --> 01:08:35.550 Brian Averill: Now, Nick I think alfresco program started a lot of restaurants jumped on it, and now they're just sort of pushing it to see. 768 01:08:35.700 --> 01:08:54.060 Nick Antonicello: How far they can go into much the overhang, the problem is, is that it's the access to public access from there to the beach, and the fact that they remove the out the street street seating now makes it as Robin said it looking at all something close it take it over the sidewalk. 769 01:08:54.780 --> 01:08:54.960 well. 770 01:08:56.280 --> 01:08:57.300 Jim Robb: Well, I can tell you right. 771 01:08:59.430 --> 01:09:00.600 Jim Robb: I do business with him. 772 01:09:01.710 --> 01:09:16.950 Jim Robb: But I don't like them, and my wife works at that location for 16 years when it was the terrorists, which was the best, and I would be more than happy to cause problems with them and. 773 01:09:16.980 --> 01:09:19.050 Brian Averill: Make sure that they got easy but. 774 01:09:21.150 --> 01:09:21.570 Jim Robb: When I. 775 01:09:22.680 --> 01:09:23.760 Jim Robb: Think, I think we should. 776 01:09:23.820 --> 01:09:32.760 Jim Robb: Robin if you got if you got emotion, I think we should go for it, and I think definitely they take it there they're alfresco to a. 777 01:09:34.410 --> 01:09:37.980 Jim Robb: To overextending protocol. 778 01:09:38.310 --> 01:09:42.180 Nick Antonicello: The emphasis should be on public access, because that's, the only thing they're going to dress. 779 01:09:42.480 --> 01:09:48.240 Nick Antonicello: Okay, you have to really address the fact that you can't walk now West from. 780 01:09:49.470 --> 01:09:54.990 Nick Antonicello: The from nick's liquor through that facility, the oppression is the tool product, I mean. 781 01:09:55.050 --> 01:09:56.520 evelynsaro: Ada ta. 782 01:09:56.760 --> 01:09:58.710 evelynsaro: Ada needs to be where they're going to get. 783 01:09:59.010 --> 01:10:03.570 Jim Robb: Right yeah exactly so Robin Can you give us a motion real quick. 784 01:10:03.660 --> 01:10:05.490 Brian Averill: Oh wait, we have one public comment, we didn't. 785 01:10:06.090 --> 01:10:06.600 Jim Robb: Yes. 786 01:10:06.660 --> 01:10:08.790 Brian Averill: sorry about that Lisa go for. 787 01:10:09.510 --> 01:10:09.900 hi. 788 01:10:11.220 --> 01:10:26.190 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Thank you for bringing this up Robin because yeah it's been bothering me to you, yes, public access is an issue but it's also public safety, because they created this overhang that we don't building department didn't come out and inspect it or give approval to it. 789 01:10:26.220 --> 01:10:41.760 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: or anything so we don't know its construction we don't know when the next we have the wind storms going to do to it or videos playing around it and swinging on it, and the next person that walks through is going to have it come down on them so it's also a public safety issue as well. 790 01:10:42.600 --> 01:10:42.990 awesome. 791 01:10:44.910 --> 01:10:46.320 Jim Robb: Alright, Robin give us a potion. 792 01:10:47.160 --> 01:10:47.910 Robin Rudisill: Okay, one SEC. 793 01:10:53.550 --> 01:10:54.000 Robin Rudisill: Okay. 794 01:10:55.470 --> 01:11:03.930 Robin Rudisill: Whereas at the Pier house on Washington boulevard in ocean front walk It appears that the public access is no longer on the sidewalk. 795 01:11:04.740 --> 01:11:19.080 Robin Rudisill: As it appears to be part of the restaurant and privatized, whereas the sidewalk does not always allow for Ada access, whereas the covering built over the area appears to be unpermitted and is a safety issue. 796 01:11:20.160 --> 01:11:28.860 Robin Rudisill: The and therefore dnc request lapd require the pure house to remove the tables and the covering that are causing this problem. 797 01:11:30.840 --> 01:11:34.080 Brian Averill: Right Is there anyone else that should go to i'm not sure myself but. 798 01:11:34.470 --> 01:11:37.170 Robin Rudisill: Well, I suppose, to lack violation but. 799 01:11:37.230 --> 01:11:37.650 um. 800 01:11:39.990 --> 01:11:41.160 Robin Rudisill: yeah inspectors. 801 01:11:41.880 --> 01:11:42.870 Jim Robb: are building and safety. 802 01:11:43.350 --> 01:11:43.740 Okay. 803 01:11:46.500 --> 01:11:47.100 Robin Rudisill: So. 804 01:11:47.580 --> 01:11:49.440 Robin Rudisill: lapd and building and safety. 805 01:11:50.160 --> 01:11:51.540 Brian Averill: Great know well, did you have something. 806 01:11:51.660 --> 01:11:55.170 Noel Johnston: We leveling this specifically at the Pier house. 807 01:11:55.800 --> 01:12:01.110 Noel Johnston: Yes, no other no other establishments along Washington boulevard you're doing this. 808 01:12:01.770 --> 01:12:02.100 Now. 809 01:12:03.780 --> 01:12:15.090 Nick Antonicello: Luckily, the whaler is too, because if you're on the sidewalk whaler is is completely in case because they have that outdoor outdoor seating as well. 810 01:12:16.200 --> 01:12:16.530 Nick Antonicello: You know I. 811 01:12:16.590 --> 01:12:22.050 Brian Averill: mean you could you could leave it vague and, at the end of Washington boulevard in speedway that encompasses both of those. 812 01:12:23.370 --> 01:12:23.910 Jim Robb: Because even. 813 01:12:24.420 --> 01:12:26.880 Noel Johnston: Though I want to say something about Ada compliance. 814 01:12:27.450 --> 01:12:28.920 Jim Robb: I did yeah she did. 815 01:12:29.250 --> 01:12:30.810 Noel Johnston: Oh i'm sorry Robin I miss that. 816 01:12:31.350 --> 01:12:43.530 Jim Robb: doesn't even like bells in touch house, I mean at least all those you could walk down the sidewalk which is you know they just think if you do it on Windward you definitely should be able to do it on Washington. 817 01:12:44.160 --> 01:12:50.430 Robin Rudisill: yeah i'm not sure that in front of the whaler it needs to change it's pretty wide and it's clear it's still the sidewalk at least. 818 01:12:52.080 --> 01:13:12.210 Nick Antonicello: The sidewalk but if you're not if you're walking on that side of the street from say proceedings grill you wanted to continue to the beach it's the same issue, it looks like you're entering the whale a restaurant, because on the right they have all that outdoorsy I mean basically saying. 819 01:13:13.830 --> 01:13:13.980 That. 820 01:13:15.060 --> 01:13:20.460 Nick Antonicello: The whaler in the pure house or violate the spirit of public access outside. 821 01:13:21.660 --> 01:13:28.830 Robin Rudisill: yeah that's for sure, but I think the whaler they're allowed to have those tables in where the parking used to be. 822 01:13:29.550 --> 01:13:33.570 Nick Antonicello: it's not the parables on the sidewalk it's because it's enclosed. 823 01:13:33.990 --> 01:13:34.440 yeah. 824 01:13:35.520 --> 01:13:35.880 Nick Antonicello: well. 825 01:13:36.630 --> 01:13:36.750 Nick Antonicello: I. 826 01:13:37.530 --> 01:13:47.820 Jim Robb: mean I think I think if we get building and safety and lapd to stir up a little shit over it at the terrorist i'll call it, because it's still the terrorists to me. 827 01:13:48.360 --> 01:13:52.350 Jim Robb: I think that might I think that might make Michael. 828 01:13:53.670 --> 01:13:55.170 Jim Robb: Whatever the hell his name is. 829 01:13:55.620 --> 01:13:56.100 Nick Antonicello: Some of the. 830 01:13:57.120 --> 01:14:00.570 Nick Antonicello: Similar language should say something like is the current. 831 01:14:01.650 --> 01:14:02.850 Nick Antonicello: configuration. 832 01:14:03.900 --> 01:14:07.800 Nick Antonicello: Of the restaurant in compliance with with public access. 833 01:14:09.210 --> 01:14:16.860 Nick Antonicello: Like that are they in violation of any public access, I mean I think that's I mean look they put the thing up i'm sure that. 834 01:14:17.550 --> 01:14:34.680 Nick Antonicello: Some buildings festering in La came by once it was arrested and so that was properly constructed, the real issue here is is you said earlier, public access and Ada I mean if you're in a wheelchair you're gonna talk time getting from. 835 01:14:35.820 --> 01:14:39.090 Nick Antonicello: From one part of that place to the other, if you want to go. 836 01:14:40.680 --> 01:14:43.980 Robin Rudisill: So i'd like to amend my motion to add one more whereas. 837 01:14:45.600 --> 01:14:51.060 Robin Rudisill: Whereas the current configuration of the restaurant may be in violation of public access requirements. 838 01:14:51.840 --> 01:14:54.630 Jim Robb: Okay let's do that let's take a vote, we got. 839 01:14:55.860 --> 01:14:58.170 Jim Robb: A like 15 minutes. 840 01:14:59.460 --> 01:15:01.770 Jim Robb: All right, Robert data bullshit who wants to second. 841 01:15:03.960 --> 01:15:09.420 Jim Robb: deck we're going to give dictate this time dig second in it, let us do a vote. 842 01:15:11.130 --> 01:15:13.170 Jim Robb: Okay, we are at Brian. 843 01:15:15.480 --> 01:15:16.050 Jim Robb: The well. 844 01:15:16.350 --> 01:15:18.210 Jim Robb: Yes, Robin. 845 01:15:18.570 --> 01:15:19.110 Yes. 846 01:15:21.420 --> 01:15:21.960 Jim Robb: bullying. 847 01:15:22.980 --> 01:15:23.520 evelynsaro: Yes. 848 01:15:24.090 --> 01:15:25.800 Lexie: lexi yes. 849 01:15:26.640 --> 01:15:29.280 Jim Robb: yep says yes that's unanimous. 850 01:15:30.540 --> 01:15:36.870 Jim Robb: Okay, good job guys Okay, so I was ahead of myself, so this is just discussion. 851 01:15:38.250 --> 01:15:40.650 Jim Robb: And we got eight minutes. 852 01:15:41.250 --> 01:15:44.160 Robin Rudisill: I have a little bit of background and I won't be long at all. 853 01:15:44.790 --> 01:15:48.000 Jim Robb: Okay, tell us what we need to tell us what we need to do. 854 01:15:48.300 --> 01:16:01.590 Robin Rudisill: All right, well, the Venice Community plan it goes hand in hand with the local coastal program you guys have heard LCP we've been in some of these meetings already well they're sort of starting over, and you know ocean front walk will be a separate subject. 855 01:16:02.970 --> 01:16:08.910 Robin Rudisill: So, because it's relatively easier to do the LCP first that's what they're going to do. 856 01:16:09.750 --> 01:16:30.150 Robin Rudisill: there's no sequel analysis required for the LCP whereas there is for the Venice Community plan so they'll they'll first to the local coastal program it's basically got to be meaningfully tied to what's existing in our land use plan certified close to land use plan. 857 01:16:31.380 --> 01:16:45.810 Robin Rudisill: And it needs to still any changes need to still conform with the coastal APP so they can't we can't the city can't propose things that are would be harmful to our character of Venice or public access. 858 01:16:47.280 --> 01:17:02.700 Robin Rudisill: So the Venice Community plan it's going to be prepared with the LCP as the starting point for the coastal zone section and then they'll fold in East Venice make some other changes I believe they're going to you know do some increase density along certain. 859 01:17:04.290 --> 01:17:15.210 Robin Rudisill: corridors, maybe Washington, maybe part of Venice and do a sequel analysis and I just identified a couple issues to keep in mind, for our part, ocean front walk. 860 01:17:15.780 --> 01:17:25.260 Robin Rudisill: You know we've got this eclectic architecture and eclectic character its a mix of commercial and residential ocean from walk is a walk street. 861 01:17:25.920 --> 01:17:37.380 Robin Rudisill: And after Disneyland it's I believe still the second most visited venue in southern California, in part because more than any other place in Venice actually and. 862 01:17:37.830 --> 01:17:49.110 Robin Rudisill: It embodies the diverse social and architectural character of Venice, you know I mean the ocean front walk is the example of what Venice is all about, and so what that tells me is. 863 01:17:49.890 --> 01:17:57.180 Robin Rudisill: More than any other place in Venice it's a character needs to be protected and we're going to play a big part in that i'm sure. 864 01:17:58.500 --> 01:17:58.920 Robin Rudisill: So what. 865 01:17:59.970 --> 01:18:01.410 Jim Robb: Go ahead keep going. 866 01:18:01.680 --> 01:18:02.790 Robin Rudisill: Alright, just a couple of my little. 867 01:18:02.790 --> 01:18:03.570 Jim Robb: Things yeah. 868 01:18:03.660 --> 01:18:16.710 Robin Rudisill: um so I believe that the residential structures on oceanfront walk must be protected in order to prevent displacing existing residence and to prevent commercializing housing. 869 01:18:17.880 --> 01:18:24.120 Robin Rudisill: it's essential to protect our existing are so housing and our other lower income housing. 870 01:18:24.810 --> 01:18:37.020 Robin Rudisill: and also the directly adjacent historic residential walk streets and all the unique neighborhoods around there should be protected from over commercializing of ocean front walk it's. 871 01:18:37.860 --> 01:18:44.490 Robin Rudisill: You know how having both residential and commercial zoning on oceanfront walk right now and in the past was very purposeful. 872 01:18:44.910 --> 01:19:02.400 Robin Rudisill: In both the current Venice Community plan and the certified land use plan, because the mix of housing and commercial provides a balance and that balance this part of the character and it is supposed to be protected and just another another couple of things we could consider. 873 01:19:03.480 --> 01:19:15.870 Robin Rudisill: We already have a very burdened infrastructure we have parking limitation serious traffic and safety concerns, so you know businesses should not automatically necessarily be expanding. 874 01:19:16.740 --> 01:19:29.820 Robin Rudisill: We should probably keep it at smaller individual businesses, not fewer larger ones, this LCP is the place where we say we don't want chain stores if that's what we all agree, or at least very limited and. 875 01:19:31.260 --> 01:19:35.430 Robin Rudisill: You know we've been waiting a long time for that, but the LCP is finally the place, we can do that. 876 01:19:36.000 --> 01:19:46.140 Robin Rudisill: We can even consider stuff like what our general public comment or earlier talked about expanding the bike path we can consider that we you know it's supposed to actually be down. 877 01:19:46.890 --> 01:19:53.880 Robin Rudisill: The Marina peninsula and it's not even it's not there, so those are the kinds of other issues that we can talk about. 878 01:19:54.840 --> 01:20:04.890 Robin Rudisill: And you know, the timing, you know will know when it's time to start providing our detailed recommendations there they're going to be coming out with some more of those meetings, so we will. 879 01:20:04.950 --> 01:20:20.280 Jim Robb: know that was my question to you is when do we need a really beyond this and will we be able to try to get somebody from that use of planning to talk to us your your my lead on this, so you just tell us what we need to do a beating and and what we need to do. 880 01:20:20.640 --> 01:20:24.930 Robin Rudisill: yeah i'm going to stay in close touch with them so and I will invite them when the time is right. 881 01:20:25.980 --> 01:20:26.220 Jim Robb: Great. 882 01:20:26.670 --> 01:20:34.530 Brian Averill: so out of time here, but we do have lexi Noel MIC and mark with their hands up, so I would love. 883 01:20:34.620 --> 01:20:35.160 Brian Averill: Everyone good. 884 01:20:35.310 --> 01:20:35.820 chance. 885 01:20:37.590 --> 01:20:38.400 Jim Robb: All right, let's go. 886 01:20:38.970 --> 01:20:45.900 Noel Johnston: i've got a quick one Robin does any of this include the 261 spaces, I think they have. 887 01:20:47.670 --> 01:20:55.770 Noel Johnston: been degraded over the last number of years there's there's really very little of interest that's being sold on the West side of the more and more right now at all. 888 01:20:57.060 --> 01:21:07.380 Noel Johnston: Is there any way we can encourage art in Venice arts in Venice of small scale, artists, creativity and the boardwalk I think. 889 01:21:08.550 --> 01:21:23.100 Noel Johnston: I know you seem to have questioned and i'm not sure we are the second biggest destination anymore um the the character of the boardwalk I think has changed in the last five years, I think it's. 890 01:21:25.530 --> 01:21:30.300 Noel Johnston: Less family friendly than it used to be, I think it's less kooky than it used to be. 891 01:21:31.350 --> 01:21:33.840 Noel Johnston: I think it's less fun than it used to be. 892 01:21:35.160 --> 01:21:35.550 Brian Averill: Actually. 893 01:21:37.980 --> 01:21:48.750 Jim Robb: Okay, so we got to move, but I think that's something that the the soda these to help us with, and I think that includes the signage and the spaces that you're talking about, for instance. 894 01:21:49.110 --> 01:21:56.820 Robin Rudisill: To give you a quick answer yes, we can consider all that with the LCP the weekend, our spheres are our craft open air sales all that. 895 01:21:57.330 --> 01:21:59.070 Jim Robb: Oh, I got you okay go ahead call me. 896 01:22:02.940 --> 01:22:03.810 Jim Robb: Have you have you. 897 01:22:06.090 --> 01:22:10.740 evelynsaro: I don't know if this could be included in that, and I was gonna try to this promotion for the next meeting, but i'll just put it out there. 898 01:22:11.670 --> 01:22:20.250 evelynsaro: If we can be sure that the residential blocks that are longer walk that there's no amplified music and then you know. 899 01:22:20.850 --> 01:22:32.430 evelynsaro: that the police and the bid people know their jobs and know that they shouldn't be doing that, so if that can be included or is that should I submit an emotion like that, for the meeting next week. 900 01:22:32.880 --> 01:22:33.930 Robin Rudisill: I would submit the motion. 901 01:22:34.590 --> 01:22:37.350 Robin Rudisill: On the law yeah okay. 902 01:22:37.410 --> 01:22:40.170 Jim Robb: So what you will do emotion with that one and. 903 01:22:40.950 --> 01:22:44.460 Brian Averill: let's go to mark I know mark has some strong opinions about this. 904 01:22:45.510 --> 01:22:52.620 Zoom user: hey everybody sorry I came in late but yeah just wanna let you know that last I talked to I think was Jason Douglas at the city. 905 01:22:53.610 --> 01:23:10.260 Zoom user: That ordinance is still on the table to have that included in the Community plan update, which is the ordinance to limit national chains on the walkway so it's been a while, since I talked to him, but apparently it's still on the table so just fyi. 906 01:23:10.710 --> 01:23:19.500 Jim Robb: Also let's maybe let's start a little separate what we're going to start a group for that particularly so you know, like our like you do with your group for Brian. 907 01:23:19.980 --> 01:23:29.160 Jim Robb: Maybe a sub group for for this Community plan we're co leading Robin and everybody can talk and work together and figure out with the lexi. 908 01:23:31.710 --> 01:23:32.310 Jim Robb: lexi. 909 01:23:32.760 --> 01:23:38.910 Lexie: hi this kind of goes back to you know what I mentioned before, and discussion about having. 910 01:23:39.600 --> 01:23:52.860 Lexie: event permits planning for the Summer Olympics, I have lots of ideas about this, I am expressing interest right now that i'd want to be on any task force or any other kind of committee, I really think we should bring in. 911 01:23:53.160 --> 01:24:03.750 Lexie: organizations like the Department of cultural affairs in Los Angeles see what kind of plans they have for the Olympics, how we can get the finished. 912 01:24:04.710 --> 01:24:11.340 Lexie: Our crawl involved with different art funding organizations through Los Angeles county and. 913 01:24:11.940 --> 01:24:24.120 Lexie: Preparing for the Olympics and how we can leverage our community to create programming during that time, that will invite commerce during that time we got to think that people are going to be air being being the shit. 914 01:24:24.420 --> 01:24:33.390 Lexie: Out of all the nearby and places just because we're not hosting any events we're going to have a big influx and it would be really lovely to somehow. 915 01:24:34.380 --> 01:24:52.980 Lexie: clean up pagodas maybe revitalize them, I have a kind of idea with the Venice are crawl of inviting street artists from around the world to revitalize the pagodas if anyone has any info about pagodas i'd love to know more, but yes, I want to be involved things. 916 01:24:53.400 --> 01:25:01.320 Jim Robb: Fantastic yeah lexi We appreciate that and that'll be part of it, Nick go ahead, you got the final two three minutes. 917 01:25:01.710 --> 01:25:05.220 Nick Antonicello: Okay, this is very important to the committee. 918 01:25:06.570 --> 01:25:17.610 Nick Antonicello: I believe that Venice trellis that we see everybody iconic Dennis Trolls that should be replicated for every street that intersects with ocean front walk. 919 01:25:18.180 --> 01:25:30.270 Nick Antonicello: So we we extend that proposition to out every student oceanfront walk the grassy knolls have to be replicated in landscape in such a way, where they can't be destroyed again. 920 01:25:30.810 --> 01:25:41.310 Nick Antonicello: some kind of Southwest motif so they don't become overrun with encampments like they were in the last couple of years, we need to double the size of the restrooms. 921 01:25:42.090 --> 01:25:53.250 Nick Antonicello: We think for right now we need to go to eight Just to give you some sense of size, I mean there are 800 bathrooms at Disneyland and there's four here. 922 01:25:53.880 --> 01:26:04.020 Nick Antonicello: So we need to be gone to the restrooms the general has to be a general maintenance program in terms of power washing it's done every day, the maintenance right now is that a fair minimum. 923 01:26:04.500 --> 01:26:12.450 Nick Antonicello: And I think we can look at capital improvement, I mean we need to look at how we can make the that is pure more. 924 01:26:13.020 --> 01:26:25.350 Nick Antonicello: versatile maybe have concerts out there, like that, who knows head in the fall, I think we should look for a Hollywood bold kind of band Shell a permanent financial at the beach. 925 01:26:25.800 --> 01:26:34.140 Nick Antonicello: And you know my thing is the years have been let's put a minor league baseball stadium 10 or 2500 people, so we have family events. 926 01:26:34.410 --> 01:26:40.980 Nick Antonicello: have been affiliated with the dodgers make it to the dodgers at the beach or something like that let's think out of the box. 927 01:26:41.370 --> 01:26:48.570 Nick Antonicello: there's an opportunity here with the Olympics coming in a lot of money available with them, and I think we should put together. 928 01:26:48.990 --> 01:27:00.150 Nick Antonicello: a wish list that that should be serious and looked at, because right now, and I think anyone's on this committee will say to boardwalk is never look worse and the boardwalk has never been more. 929 01:27:00.990 --> 01:27:02.400 Brian Averill: Absolutely, I agree. 930 01:27:02.580
