77
00:07:42.840 --> 00:07:46.079

betsygoldman: And what about Scott?

79
00:07:50.330 --> 00:08:02.860

robin murez: So we just we need one more voting member to have a forum.

91
00:09:01.630 --> 00:09:04.829
robin murez: and they both said they were gonna be on it.

92
00:09:06.190 --> 00:09:11.190
robin murez: Let's see what other I can also call she's got another number.

93
00:09:17.040 --> 00:09:34.280
robin murez: So if you guys want to discuss anything, Tim, did you have any more thoughts about Tim got to go up into the Tower yesterday, and it's beautiful. I mean it. It's very, very interesting, very. I got a lot of thoughts about it, and since the

94
00:09:34.410 --> 00:09:36.699
timrudnick: the time that view is fantastic

95
00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:45.310
timrudnick: it's much smaller than I thought, and it's it, but i'm not surprised by the shape of it. It's it's really dilapidated.

96
00:09:45.980 --> 00:09:50.299
timrudnick: but it certainly can be renovated in the it's.

97
00:09:50.800 --> 00:10:00.199
timrudnick: It's fantastic. I love the entrance to the thing I love to talk about that the engine from the beach is fantastically interesting.

98
00:10:00.970 --> 00:10:08.930
robin murez: Yeah. So we need you because we can't. We don't have a for him until we join on the meeting.

99
00:10:09.040 --> 00:10:13.930
robin murez: Okay, quick, quick. Okay, bye.

100
00:10:15.670 --> 00:10:19.949
robin murez: Oh, my! So it sounds like it could be a few minutes until she comes on.

101
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:22.400
robin murez: Well.

102
00:10:22.680 --> 00:10:26.389
robin murez: I think we can discuss things without making any

103
00:10:26.430 --> 00:10:27.210
robin murez: but

104
00:10:27.760 --> 00:10:31.570
robin murez: commitments or anything, while we wait for somebody to join

105
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:36.310
robin murez: what we? Well, okay, there's one

106
00:10:36.380 --> 00:10:37.050
great peace

107
00:10:37.380 --> 00:10:44.680
robin murez: news that is, again, not any kind of controlling information, but I learned that

108
00:10:44.920 --> 00:10:48.750
robin murez: you know the project manager for the

109
00:10:49.100 --> 00:10:50.869
robin murez: department beaches and harbors.

110
00:10:50.940 --> 00:11:01.630
robin murez: who has been, you know, the one everybody quote, whether it be the Coastal Commission or back in parks or everywhere it's this gentleman by the name of Ismail Lopez.

111
00:11:02.250 --> 00:11:03.400
robin murez: and

112
00:11:03.490 --> 00:11:06.440
robin murez: guess what either is. Last night

113
00:11:07.570 --> 00:11:09.110
it's

114
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:10.430
timrudnick: what

115
00:11:11.340 --> 00:11:13.649
robin murez: it's. No, no, because has

116
00:11:13.850 --> 00:11:16.720
robin murez: transferred out of

117
00:11:17.070 --> 00:11:18.799
beaches and harbors.

118
00:11:20.490 --> 00:11:21.510
robin murez: So

119
00:11:21.610 --> 00:11:32.470
robin murez: okay, so first I've heard that, you know, Record said, Hold off until the committee has a chance to review it. No demolition. Then Tracy park

120
00:11:32.560 --> 00:11:34.159
robin murez: in the zoom the other night.

121
00:11:34.340 --> 00:11:41.670
robin murez: said, No, demolition is not happening. She doesn't know what will be, but no demolition. And then I hear Ismail's gone.

122
00:11:41.750 --> 00:11:42.650
robin murez: so

123
00:11:42.890 --> 00:11:50.859
robin murez: that to me was a really good sign. That means they have realized they cannot go forward with this, and

124
00:11:51.040 --> 00:11:53.349
robin murez: he's the one who was lying to everyone

125
00:11:53.780 --> 00:12:01.400
robin murez: I mean. I'm sure he was set up to do it. His supervisor, Warren, Monty Pierre, was also on like the record part

126
00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:04.760
robin murez: Zoom. The 2 of them were giving their

127
00:12:05.030 --> 00:12:13.549
robin murez: misleading information. But you know there was that website current article that annoyed me so much because

128
00:12:13.670 --> 00:12:15.910
robin murez: they were quoting this meal.

129
00:12:16.850 --> 00:12:23.180
robin murez: misleading and false information, as though it was factual, and they quoted my

130
00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:28.789
robin murez: the actual information that I sent the documents showing that it was back.

131
00:12:28.900 --> 00:12:31.410
robin murez: and they quoted that as the opinion.

132
00:12:31.610 --> 00:12:40.129
robin murez: So i'm like, No. But yeah. So I think we we did our duty in getting the truth out. And

133
00:12:40.530 --> 00:12:41.670
robin murez: you did.

134
00:12:41.710 --> 00:12:46.220
timrudnick: You've done a fabulous job, Robin, You've been fantastic.

135
00:12:46.310 --> 00:12:47.430
betsygoldman: I agree.

136
00:12:47.850 --> 00:12:59.640
robin murez: Yeah, it it definitely was a lot of work and didn't do it alone, you know. Oh, no, there's nobody else here yet. You know everybody

137
00:12:59.770 --> 00:13:01.720
robin murez: contributed to helping us

138
00:13:01.750 --> 00:13:19.520
robin murez: find the documents that you know initially rec at the beaches and harbors, with not forthcoming with the information. But you know, our community members who were actively involved helped to find the documents, and then

139
00:13:19.810 --> 00:13:24.619
robin murez: and then, yeah, I read them through and found where the false information was, and

140
00:13:24.900 --> 00:13:33.230
robin murez: and then just brought it to the light of everyone possible. And then, you know, we had people in other departments of the city, who also were

141
00:13:33.340 --> 00:13:35.680
robin murez: on our side and sharing

142
00:13:36.010 --> 00:13:41.399
robin murez: important information with me to help overcome this craziness. But yeah, it was.

143
00:13:42.710 --> 00:13:47.800
robin murez: It was the whole crazy effort. The false information was all over the place.

144
00:13:49.090 --> 00:13:53.269
robin murez: and without you it wouldn't have happened.

145
00:13:53.610 --> 00:14:06.630
robin murez: you know. I do think you're right, and I, and and thank you for recognizing it, because, you know, when you do hard work on something that you feel passionately about it, it it feels good to have

146
00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:11.410
robin murez: saved an icon of the Venice. I think you know we can all be proud.

147
00:14:12.680 --> 00:14:23.329
robin murez: But yeah, I mean, it was just such craziness. You know. There were all these different departments of the county that had that they were kind of giving all the false information. Just so it was

148
00:14:23.350 --> 00:14:31.460
robin murez: County Department of Public Works and County building and safety, and they all were like complicit.

149
00:14:32.400 --> 00:14:36.730
robin murez: So yeah, you know, and I got the minute from the

150
00:14:37.020 --> 00:14:38.000
robin murez: Counties

151
00:14:38.310 --> 00:14:39.510
robin murez: Commission that

152
00:14:39.650 --> 00:14:43.790
robin murez: commission of beaches and hardware meetings.

153
00:14:43.920 --> 00:14:52.409
robin murez: and it was clear, looking through the minutes which they were, they were voluminous, I mean. It took a while to go through them, but to see where they were

154
00:14:52.900 --> 00:14:57.500
robin murez: knowingly putting out this false information with, you know, just

155
00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:00.789
robin murez: shocking to me in my naive way.

156
00:15:01.330 --> 00:15:02.910
robin murez: But yeah, we got him.

157
00:15:03.670 --> 00:15:07.259
robin murez: So i'm really glad that we've saved it, and

158
00:15:09.390 --> 00:15:11.810
robin murez: well, sun is not on yet. But

159
00:15:11.980 --> 00:15:12.690
robin murez: I mean

160
00:15:12.900 --> 00:15:14.850
robin murez: we can again just

161
00:15:15.540 --> 00:15:20.070
robin murez: say that what our next steps are

162
00:15:20.590 --> 00:15:25.109
robin murez: our, you know, in keeping with what we've been doing. We need to

163
00:15:25.170 --> 00:15:27.469
robin murez: see about getting

164
00:15:27.550 --> 00:15:30.430
robin murez: estimate on what the cost of.

165
00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:36.699
robin murez: you know. Retrofitting would be, so that we can put together business

166
00:15:36.770 --> 00:15:38.800
robin murez: proposal for Recon Park.

167
00:15:39.010 --> 00:15:40.020
robin murez: and

168
00:15:40.590 --> 00:15:48.000
robin murez: and so that's what we were doing yesterday, having contractors up there and

169
00:15:48.460 --> 00:15:51.410
robin murez: Tim, you know that while we were there

170
00:15:51.460 --> 00:15:53.939
robin murez: they were able to find

171
00:15:54.020 --> 00:15:59.520
robin murez: blueprint print out some of the blueprints, and so that'll make it

172
00:16:00.220 --> 00:16:07.900
robin murez: far easier for architects or contractors to come together with some ideas and estimates of how

173
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:11.010
robin murez: the Ada compliance can be

174
00:16:11.110 --> 00:16:15.810
robin murez: made. And and you know, whatever how we put in the

175
00:16:15.850 --> 00:16:17.190
robin murez: an elevator.

176
00:16:17.620 --> 00:16:18.849
robin murez: and how are you

177
00:16:18.980 --> 00:16:20.000
robin murez: make it

178
00:16:20.430 --> 00:16:22.590
robin murez: workable hopefully, as

179
00:16:22.730 --> 00:16:33.030
robin murez: I'm. Using an observation tower. But if we can't at least to have it saved to, there's some talk of also lifeguards. Maybe you know, having

180
00:16:33.250 --> 00:16:41.529
robin murez: ideas of how they could use it, you know. I mean I I just feel like it needs to be safe, and we've done that part, and if we can

181
00:16:41.670 --> 00:16:46.560
robin murez: make it for public use, that would be totally awesome.

182
00:16:46.630 --> 00:16:51.439
robin murez: Yeah. So we'll keep working on that. And, Tim, if you have, do you have a like

183
00:16:51.620 --> 00:16:52.490
robin murez: any

184
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:57.120
robin murez: business people involved with the oceanarium.

185
00:16:58.010 --> 00:16:59.240
robin murez: So

186
00:17:00.470 --> 00:17:06.829
robin murez: yeah, so in order to put together like this business plan.

187
00:17:07.280 --> 00:17:12.589
robin murez: it would be really helpful if there was somebody who might help us with that. There's somebody who

188
00:17:12.690 --> 00:17:15.569
robin murez: like nose has any experience with doing.

189
00:17:15.910 --> 00:17:17.639
robin murez: You know, a business plan.

190
00:17:17.890 --> 00:17:25.069
robin murez: I I did one for the carousel that that you know that I submitted to recon Park, and I got help from one of our

191
00:17:25.130 --> 00:17:27.220
robin murez: Carousel Board members who

192
00:17:27.660 --> 00:17:31.989
robin murez: you know, finance person. So yeah, they would.

193
00:17:32.180 --> 00:17:34.889
robin murez: Somebody who you think might be good to work with.

194
00:17:35.190 --> 00:17:52.070
timrudnick: I know somebody very, very good, but I I think he's extremely busy at the moment. He's he's working on saving a a 5 business that that produces. B. Hive facilities and things like that. It's. It's the biggest in the country.

195
00:17:52.500 --> 00:17:57.169
timrudnick: and he's working to save us from going under, and he's been working night and day. So he.

196
00:17:57.690 --> 00:18:07.939
timrudnick: I I hesitate to ask him to do anything more for. But I want to talk to him definitely. He's very, very good, very successful businessman.

197
00:18:08.420 --> 00:18:10.219
robin murez: Okay, yeah. But

198
00:18:10.440 --> 00:18:14.890
robin murez: you know, and if he is too busy. Maybe there's someone else.

199
00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:20.730
robin murez: Yeah, yeah, I mean again, I do have some experiences. And I think also.

200
00:18:21.210 --> 00:18:23.500
robin murez: you know, Todd, who has.

201
00:18:23.850 --> 00:18:36.069
robin murez: you know, the neighbor who has worked on this with us. He is quite savvy in business matter, so he may be able to help, even though that's not specifically his field. And you know whatever. But I think if we.

202
00:18:36.290 --> 00:18:37.710
robin murez: if we can think of

203
00:18:37.970 --> 00:18:43.410
robin murez: maybe just one other person who could help it could be good. Also.

204
00:18:44.110 --> 00:18:45.759
robin murez: you know that various

205
00:18:46.500 --> 00:18:49.860
robin murez: agencies, whatever. Yesterday the

206
00:18:49.900 --> 00:18:51.660
robin murez: La

207
00:18:52.360 --> 00:18:54.920
robin murez: Conservancy yes.

208
00:18:55.060 --> 00:18:56.880
robin murez: came to the

209
00:18:56.900 --> 00:19:02.930
robin murez: and she's. I've got a phone call with her today, and

210
00:19:03.050 --> 00:19:08.630
robin murez: she has some ideas of other sources of funding, of grant funding, and so

211
00:19:08.650 --> 00:19:13.429
robin murez: so she may also have. I think, she said, they also know of. Maybe

212
00:19:13.460 --> 00:19:18.589
robin murez: when she said, they know, like contractors. I don't know that we need a contractor. It seems like maybe we're good on that now.

213
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:24.910
robin murez: but we're architect. But but you know, maybe she's got other help for how to

214
00:19:25.010 --> 00:19:31.059
robin murez: right these grants to actually get them funded, because there is an art to that that I don't know.

215
00:19:31.460 --> 00:19:33.909
robin murez: So that would be helpful.

216
00:19:34.180 --> 00:19:37.670
robin murez: Hopefully. Some is still gonna come

217
00:19:39.350 --> 00:19:41.670
robin murez: again. I don't it's nothing

218
00:19:41.990 --> 00:19:46.240
robin murez: There's public information is already out there that

219
00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:50.470
robin murez: the walking tour app that we submitted

220
00:19:50.790 --> 00:19:55.119
robin murez: a request to the Bmc. To for funding.

221
00:19:55.580 --> 00:20:00.289
robin murez: went before the Budget Committee the other night in. I

222
00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:04.309
robin murez: amended it in a smaller format.

223
00:20:04.830 --> 00:20:07.800
robin murez: After talking also with the

224
00:20:08.750 --> 00:20:16.420
robin murez: the maker of that app. I think that we can do it all for quite inexpensively. And so we are

225
00:20:18.230 --> 00:20:20.059
robin murez: waiting to get

226
00:20:20.560 --> 00:20:23.710
robin murez: well. So it it passed the Budget Committee, though, with

227
00:20:23.740 --> 00:20:27.810
robin murez: just total crazy fiasco things going on again

228
00:20:27.870 --> 00:20:32.479
robin murez: again. It's public information. You can pull up the recording of that meeting.

229
00:20:32.890 --> 00:20:34.880
robin murez: They submitted the

230
00:20:34.910 --> 00:20:36.709
robin murez: well, our old

231
00:20:36.780 --> 00:20:38.770
robin murez: application, instead of

232
00:20:38.840 --> 00:20:53.539
robin murez: the new amended one, which caused a lot of confusion they brought up. So I've been asking the treasurer who wants that meeting to give me feedback on any questions he might have, so that we could answer them or

233
00:20:53.550 --> 00:20:59.150
robin murez: find out, find the answers. He gave me nothing in advance. But then, on the meeting.

234
00:20:59.250 --> 00:21:08.949
robin murez: they come up with these new issues that are not issues, misrepresenting things, not understanding the project, apparently not having read

235
00:21:09.210 --> 00:21:13.690
robin murez: the proposal, and again they have the old one on there. So then, oh, my God!

236
00:21:14.260 --> 00:21:16.869
robin murez: It was again just a total like.

237
00:21:17.160 --> 00:21:20.019
robin murez: you know. That's the I know you don't like coming on the zoom

238
00:21:21.070 --> 00:21:23.450
robin murez: for good reason. I mean

239
00:21:23.840 --> 00:21:30.589
robin murez: It's just, you know. And then I get cut off, and they let people talk. We don't know what they're talking about.

240
00:21:30.620 --> 00:21:36.700
robin murez: and you know they're saying the wrong thing, and they're looking at the wrong information, and

241
00:21:37.090 --> 00:21:41.800
robin murez: it's just so annoying, and it's so bizarre like, what is there

242
00:21:42.060 --> 00:21:46.109
robin murez: agenda like? Why are they trying to

243
00:21:46.330 --> 00:21:47.870
robin murez: prevent

244
00:21:48.050 --> 00:21:52.029
robin murez: project? That is only beneficial to Venice?

245
00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:53.470
robin murez: And

246
00:21:53.940 --> 00:22:01.180
robin murez: you know, instead of on some projects they like. Let them go right through there. There was a request for funds

247
00:22:01.380 --> 00:22:03.820
robin murez: on that meeting, where

248
00:22:05.460 --> 00:22:09.750
robin murez: the request was to get $875

249
00:22:10.040 --> 00:22:11.910
robin murez: for buying

250
00:22:12.150 --> 00:22:14.190
robin murez: 5 logoed

251
00:22:15.890 --> 00:22:17.030
robin murez: tablecloth

252
00:22:17.140 --> 00:22:18.750
robin murez: for the Neighborhood Council.

253
00:22:18.850 --> 00:22:22.709
robin murez: 5 table costs. They would take $875

254
00:22:24.290 --> 00:22:24.900
robin murez: like

255
00:22:25.190 --> 00:22:29.409
robin murez: That's just me is astronomical. You can buy a table password

256
00:22:29.470 --> 00:22:39.259
robin murez: 10 or maybe 20 bucks, and you can put a logo on it. You know. You get iron on transfer paper these days, and you could put anything on.

257
00:22:39.390 --> 00:22:44.089
robin murez: I didn't have a chance to stay, or if you want to smoke, screen it, you can get it so screened on

258
00:22:44.460 --> 00:22:45.830
robin murez: my last of that.

259
00:22:46.060 --> 00:22:52.640
robin murez: and they would ahead and approve that without their being any supporting information, no

260
00:22:52.680 --> 00:23:01.339
robin murez: information of what the dimensions of these are what the material that they're made out of. I mean they must be made at a goal. You know what the

261
00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:04.909
robin murez: no information at all, but they they

262
00:23:05.050 --> 00:23:06.150
robin murez: they

263
00:23:06.660 --> 00:23:11.640
robin murez: voted to, you know, pass that. And then they gave all these like

264
00:23:12.280 --> 00:23:13.560
robin murez: crazy

265
00:23:13.610 --> 00:23:23.820
robin murez: obstacles in the way, questioning things for our walking to our app that I have all the documents for, and so, and

266
00:23:24.080 --> 00:23:28.200
robin murez: and it would only cost 49, 99 a month. To do

267
00:23:28.410 --> 00:23:29.150
robin murez: so

268
00:23:29.350 --> 00:23:31.669
robin murez: 49, 99 a month

269
00:23:31.690 --> 00:23:39.810
robin murez: to create this walking tour app versus $875 for 5 table costs.

270
00:23:41.550 --> 00:23:42.320
Yeah.

271
00:23:42.900 --> 00:23:44.889
robin murez: but you know that there are

272
00:23:45.140 --> 00:23:51.699
robin murez: some for some reason, they just anything I say. They seem to want to fight again.

273
00:23:53.220 --> 00:23:56.870
robin murez: So yeah, we still don't have time here.

274
00:23:59.780 --> 00:24:05.150
robin murez: I I think you know what we would also do with this meeting is

275
00:24:05.310 --> 00:24:06.450
robin murez: talk about

276
00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:10.909
robin murez: past proposals and where we should go, and

277
00:24:10.950 --> 00:24:14.840
robin murez: and and I think we can also discuss. Okay. So we put out that

278
00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:23.190
robin murez: petition that collected over 1,300 signatures.

279
00:24:24.060 --> 00:24:29.799
robin murez: I can send an update that will be like an email that goes to everybody who signed a petition.

280
00:24:30.240 --> 00:24:31.710
robin murez: So both of you did.

281
00:24:31.820 --> 00:24:36.939
robin murez: And I'm just wondering. And again, this is not necessarily in kind of official

282
00:24:37.790 --> 00:24:44.580
robin murez: meeting, business or committee business. But just to think about what we might want to put in that update.

283
00:24:45.270 --> 00:24:57.899
robin murez: I was thinking we could update, hand out that email, saying, If you want to stay in touch on this and other related historic projects. Please send your email because I don't have everybody's email.

284
00:24:57.960 --> 00:25:02.599
robin murez: The only way I can send this update is through that change.org

285
00:25:03.150 --> 00:25:05.840
robin murez: program, and it doesn't let me.

286
00:25:06.180 --> 00:25:14.620
robin murez: It doesn't show me what people's emails are, or phone numbers or anything. So I thought we could ask if people want to be in touch what their emails are.

287
00:25:16.140 --> 00:25:18.450
robin murez: and then I thought we would tell them that

288
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:22.030
robin murez: we've, you know, stopped the demolition Hallelujah!

289
00:25:22.360 --> 00:25:25.940
robin murez: And then I thought maybe we should also

290
00:25:26.670 --> 00:25:32.420
robin murez: suggest, you know, related projects that they might be interested in.

291
00:25:32.920 --> 00:25:37.580
robin murez: so that we immediately, you know, get who never read that email with

292
00:25:37.750 --> 00:25:40.479
robin murez: would know about, you know, other projects. And

293
00:25:41.360 --> 00:25:49.260
robin murez: so one of those would be. This committee already passed, a few other motions, one of them being to create that

294
00:25:50.750 --> 00:25:53.700
robin murez: historic parklet. That would be

295
00:25:53.850 --> 00:25:55.390
robin murez: Grand Canal

296
00:25:55.740 --> 00:25:59.729
robin murez: between North and South and Boulevard with, You know the trolley cartridge.

297
00:26:01.170 --> 00:26:04.560
robin murez: You both know what i'm talking about.

298
00:26:04.820 --> 00:26:05.710
timrudnick: Oh.

299
00:26:06.330 --> 00:26:07.329
timrudnick: where is it

300
00:26:08.050 --> 00:26:15.409
robin murez: so? You know there's that little section of Grand Canal that goes between north and south.

301
00:26:15.430 --> 00:26:17.830
robin murez: right and the original historic

302
00:26:17.890 --> 00:26:20.349
robin murez: red car Bridge is there.

303
00:26:20.820 --> 00:26:24.269
robin murez: and so our committee has submitted

304
00:26:24.290 --> 00:26:31.299
robin murez: a motion to that land on the bank there. That section there is.

305
00:26:31.940 --> 00:26:35.399
It's currently considered

306
00:26:35.580 --> 00:26:37.059
robin murez: public right of way.

307
00:26:37.670 --> 00:26:45.570
robin murez: So what we asked is, whether is it that could be made into being, recon Park land

308
00:26:45.800 --> 00:26:50.269
robin murez: and make it into a little park, so that people can sit on the banks of the canal.

309
00:26:50.360 --> 00:26:57.780
robin murez: You know I have some tables and shares there, and have a little key up, and have it nicely landscape and have complex out that.

310
00:26:57.990 --> 00:27:04.910
robin murez: you know. Give you the historic information, because you know it's a very historic site there.

311
00:27:05.160 --> 00:27:06.080
robin murez: So

312
00:27:07.910 --> 00:27:09.530
robin murez: it's also

313
00:27:10.530 --> 00:27:15.759
robin murez: they that monster on the Median proposal that you know, bomb and push through.

314
00:27:16.300 --> 00:27:19.580
robin murez: You both know what i'm talking about

315
00:27:20.120 --> 00:27:23.090
robin murez: that, would

316
00:27:23.550 --> 00:27:26.770
robin murez: it? It does not comply with, You know there are.

317
00:27:27.150 --> 00:27:28.590
robin murez: There are

318
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:30.770
robin murez: whatever you call like

319
00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:34.950
robin murez: regulations that were passed by the Coastal Commission and

320
00:27:35.000 --> 00:27:40.730
robin murez: the army core of engineers in the city of La, all in agreement. If they have, that portion

321
00:27:40.800 --> 00:27:48.809
robin murez: of the canal is to be, and the bridge are is there. They are recognized as historic, and that you could

322
00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:52.039
robin murez: maybe make sure. I'm saying the right thing.

323
00:27:52.110 --> 00:27:57.270
robin murez: They they're on the historic, the National historic Registry. How are they?

324
00:27:59.650 --> 00:28:02.510
betsygoldman: The national? I think.

325
00:28:02.940 --> 00:28:03.780
robin murez: Yeah.

326
00:28:04.140 --> 00:28:06.790
robin murez: So you know they're to be protected. But

327
00:28:06.910 --> 00:28:08.580
robin murez: the one in.

328
00:28:08.930 --> 00:28:09.810
robin murez: you know.

329
00:28:10.240 --> 00:28:13.670
robin murez: plan to build that monster on the Median

330
00:28:13.840 --> 00:28:18.950
robin murez: does not comply with the description of how that area is supposed to be

331
00:28:20.360 --> 00:28:25.580
robin murez: protected and maintained. But this little creating little parklet would do that.

332
00:28:25.990 --> 00:28:31.369
robin murez: So it's another reason that it's kind of a timely project, and would be great to get

333
00:28:31.630 --> 00:28:34.810
robin murez: a lot of support for. And

334
00:28:35.190 --> 00:28:37.970
robin murez: since you know it's sent that over to

335
00:28:38.620 --> 00:28:39.880
robin murez: Well to

336
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:48.479
robin murez: at the time on, and was still in office. I knew it wouldn't go anywhere there, but now we've got Tracey Park, and I also sent it to record parks, and

337
00:28:48.620 --> 00:28:49.529
robin murez: you know we

338
00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:52.839
robin murez: we got blindsided by the

339
00:28:52.900 --> 00:28:53.940
robin murez: Lifeguards

340
00:28:54.100 --> 00:28:59.290
robin murez: issue that needed immediate attention. But now maybe we could get back to

341
00:28:59.580 --> 00:29:02.610
robin murez: working on creating that little historic park.

342
00:29:03.860 --> 00:29:05.550
robin murez: So

343
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:06.420
robin murez: yeah.

344
00:29:06.630 --> 00:29:15.210
betsygoldman: I think you need to look for Members Committee members who will be more dependable on attending meetings.

345
00:29:16.620 --> 00:29:17.400
robin murez: Yep.

346
00:29:17.770 --> 00:29:19.310
betsygoldman: because this is

347
00:29:20.990 --> 00:29:21.730
robin murez: Yep.

348
00:29:21.800 --> 00:29:23.130
betsygoldman: this is wrong.

349
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:24.110
robin murez: Yep.

350
00:29:25.580 --> 00:29:26.649
robin murez: I agree.

351
00:29:28.920 --> 00:29:32.800
robin murez: and in that regard to him, if you want it to be a committee member.

352
00:29:33.120 --> 00:29:40.940
timrudnick: I I am so stretched I hate that I hate that. I'm flattered to be asked, but i'm so stretched that these days

353
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:45.710
timrudnick: with my

354
00:29:45.950 --> 00:29:47.310
betsygoldman: I hate to.

355
00:29:49.800 --> 00:30:00.560
robin murez: Yeah, Well, you and and actually Todd and Mickey have all been very actively involved in these past few months. And

356
00:30:00.660 --> 00:30:03.509
robin murez: I, you know, Scott had said he's

357
00:30:03.970 --> 00:30:08.249
robin murez: more than honored to be on our committee, and he's got like fabulous

358
00:30:08.460 --> 00:30:10.390
connection with

359
00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:11.520
robin murez: Government

360
00:30:11.580 --> 00:30:12.680
robin murez: people.

361
00:30:12.840 --> 00:30:18.140
robin murez: But yeah, it's it's frustrating that he hasn't attended, and then, Brian.

362
00:30:18.500 --> 00:30:20.470
robin murez: he usually attends

363
00:30:20.950 --> 00:30:21.780
betsygoldman: Why it.

364
00:30:22.870 --> 00:30:24.799
robin murez: he said. He would

365
00:30:27.650 --> 00:30:28.860
robin murez: your office.

366
00:30:29.240 --> 00:30:33.179

robin murez: we don't want to let you go so easily. So maybe we can have you, you know. Continue to you know we only do a monthly meeting. This is it

415
00:34:25.340 --> 00:34:26.149
robin murez: awesome?

416
00:34:27.110 --> 00:34:31.359
robin murez: Okay. So then we will go to old business.

417
00:34:31.560 --> 00:34:35.230
robin murez: So updates on our previous motion.

418
00:34:35.250 --> 00:34:41.909
robin murez: So regarding the pagodas and anybody china in at any point. If you have questions, comments.

419
00:34:42.090 --> 00:34:43.060
robin murez: anything.

420
00:34:44.630 --> 00:34:50.469
robin murez: i'll just run down what I know. The pagoda is nothing new that I know of.

421
00:34:50.860 --> 00:35:04.980
robin murez: They are still slated to be repaired. But you know who knows when that will happen? Meanwhile Ocean Front walk is looking better, and then it looks worse. And then what I actually I don't know. If you guys have been out on Ocean Walk recently, but is

422
00:35:05.140 --> 00:35:10.569
robin murez: bustling. There are so many people again at Venice Beach. Good.

423
00:35:10.800 --> 00:35:14.889
robin murez: huge numbers of tourists out there. It's bustling.

424
00:35:15.260 --> 00:35:19.279
robin murez: Okay, Our historic parklet motion.

425
00:35:19.350 --> 00:35:23.519
robin murez: That's what I informally just talked about, and

426
00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:27.509
robin murez: that to create the parks between

427
00:35:27.680 --> 00:35:30.829
robin murez: North and south. Then it's full of ours that

428
00:35:31.050 --> 00:35:37.510
robin murez: back. You know the banks of the Grand Canal there, and including the red car

429
00:35:37.610 --> 00:35:39.490
robin murez: historic bridge.

430
00:35:39.600 --> 00:35:43.120
robin murez: And so what i'm wondering is how

431
00:35:43.450 --> 00:35:47.960
robin murez: we sent that motion out. It went to Recon Park. They went to

432
00:35:47.980 --> 00:35:52.060
robin murez: CD. 11 at the time that was born in. Now it's Tracy Park, and

433
00:35:52.230 --> 00:35:56.630
robin murez: I feel like we should try to get some attention to that again.

434
00:35:56.960 --> 00:36:00.100
robin murez: Are you all in favor of that

435
00:36:00.830 --> 00:36:02.759
robin murez: sure.

436
00:36:04.700 --> 00:36:07.449
robin murez: and that's what you were saying.

437
00:36:07.590 --> 00:36:08.439
robin murez: Okay.

438
00:36:08.590 --> 00:36:16.640
robin murez: so we'll try to do that and see. You know, I mentioned that maybe as I do a an update to the

439
00:36:16.840 --> 00:36:19.089
robin murez: people to sign a lifeguard petition.

440
00:36:19.130 --> 00:36:22.849
robin murez: Do you think that's a good idea to mention to them that

441
00:36:23.150 --> 00:36:23.990
robin murez: you know?

442
00:36:24.070 --> 00:36:29.820
robin murez: Give them. This is another project that we're going to work on and give people the opportunity to.

443
00:36:30.090 --> 00:36:33.680
Maybe i'll start a condition for that also.

444
00:36:35.110 --> 00:36:38.340
robin murez: and see if people then want to go find that

445
00:36:39.830 --> 00:36:41.000
robin murez: that sound

446
00:36:41.400 --> 00:36:43.069
robin murez: desirable to

447
00:36:43.870 --> 00:36:44.919
robin murez: you both.

448
00:36:47.770 --> 00:36:49.410
betsygoldman: I don't know.

449
00:36:51.440 --> 00:36:52.859
betsygoldman: I don't. Really.

450
00:36:54.420 --> 00:36:56.149
betsygoldman: I have to think about it.

451
00:36:56.800 --> 00:36:57.660
robin murez: Okay.

452
00:36:58.750 --> 00:37:05.470
robin murez: Okay. Do you have any initial clusters or minuses, I mean, I think we can, you know, again send the upstate and say

453
00:37:06.160 --> 00:37:09.970
robin murez: for your information, here's another historic

454
00:37:10.410 --> 00:37:13.479
robin murez: landmark that we are looking to

455
00:37:13.860 --> 00:37:15.459
robin murez: preserve, and

456
00:37:16.350 --> 00:37:17.950
robin murez: you know

457
00:37:18.440 --> 00:37:19.540
robin murez: I don't know I

458
00:37:19.650 --> 00:37:23.680
robin murez: you know, embellish, or whatever, so that people would know what it is.

459
00:37:23.970 --> 00:37:29.230
betsygoldman: I don't know. Maybe i'm getting my own personal, my own personal feelings

460
00:37:29.260 --> 00:37:31.989
betsygoldman: of being overwhelmed that sometimes

461
00:37:32.310 --> 00:37:33.180
robin murez: oh.

462
00:37:34.660 --> 00:37:38.290
robin murez: so just like workload aspect. Is that what you're thinking?

463
00:37:39.200 --> 00:37:40.989
betsygoldman: No, it's just

464
00:37:42.540 --> 00:37:45.930
betsygoldman: putting too much. Well, never mind, never mind.

465
00:37:48.860 --> 00:37:51.309
timrudnick: We all feel that way. See.

466
00:37:51.660 --> 00:37:53.840
timrudnick: we all that's it's

467
00:37:54.560 --> 00:37:56.469
timrudnick: I totally understand.

468
00:37:57.080 --> 00:38:01.110
robin murez: Well, I mean, I definitely have been like I I never.

469
00:38:01.480 --> 00:38:03.630
robin murez: You know the Life Guard Tower

470
00:38:03.750 --> 00:38:09.710
robin murez: just blindsided me. I had no idea that was something that was going to

471
00:38:09.910 --> 00:38:19.379
robin murez: need any attention, and then, yeah, required a whole lot of attention, and getting the word out for the last 2 months. We already tapped that motion.

472
00:38:19.610 --> 00:38:22.680
betsygoldman: but focusing on the tower.

473
00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:30.220
betsygoldman: for the petition is fine. But then asking people to support other, you know other issues.

474
00:38:30.660 --> 00:38:31.390
robin murez: Yeah.

475
00:38:31.430 --> 00:38:32.430
betsygoldman: I just

476
00:38:32.610 --> 00:38:35.580
betsygoldman: I think it should be one at a time.

477
00:38:36.190 --> 00:38:39.019
robin murez: Yeah, but the thing is okay. We now have

478
00:38:39.650 --> 00:38:42.989
robin murez: access to 1,300 people who have

479
00:38:43.360 --> 00:38:45.750
robin murez: what said that they want to

480
00:38:46.850 --> 00:38:50.689
robin murez: see if a historic iphone, and then it can be saved

481
00:38:50.860 --> 00:38:59.330
robin murez: If we don't do a follow up. We don't have access to those 1,300 people. We don't have their email. We, you know it's just like

482
00:38:59.970 --> 00:39:02.059
robin murez: with a touch of you know

483
00:39:02.160 --> 00:39:03.500
robin murez: the computer

484
00:39:03.940 --> 00:39:08.399
betsygoldman: I can contact. That's fine. You can do it, do it.

485
00:39:09.240 --> 00:39:11.729
robin murez: Yeah, that's all. I'm saying it's just okay

486
00:39:12.090 --> 00:39:18.849
robin murez: to try to not lose them. I mean, we Won't. Get that many my vote. You have my vote.

487
00:39:18.870 --> 00:39:20.599
robin murez: Okay, how about you, Sonya?

488
00:39:22.050 --> 00:39:23.460
robin murez: So how are you there.

489
00:39:25.630 --> 00:39:27.490
robin murez: Uh-oh!

490
00:39:27.680 --> 00:39:30.149
robin murez: All right, Sonya, Are you with us? Still.

491
00:39:31.900 --> 00:39:42.130
robin murez: I think she must have walked away from it. It's not something that necessarily fires a vote. So whatever. Okay, i'll continue on. But, Sonya, if you're here, please chime in.

492
00:39:42.320 --> 00:39:47.509
robin murez: Okay. Then we also had. Oh, okay. So

493
00:39:47.580 --> 00:39:48.719
robin murez: here we just

494
00:39:48.770 --> 00:39:53.110
robin murez: wanting to see that you are in favor of a follow up

495
00:39:53.490 --> 00:39:58.200
robin murez: email going out to the 1,300 people who sign the

496
00:39:58.460 --> 00:39:59.990
Lifeguard

497
00:40:00.710 --> 00:40:07.440
robin murez: Save the Life Card petition. Yeah, to give them information that we also are working on

498
00:40:07.570 --> 00:40:13.240
robin murez: saving the historic Canal, the Grand Canal and and

499
00:40:13.400 --> 00:40:15.640
robin murez: Red Line Bridge.

500
00:40:16.200 --> 00:40:19.229
robin murez: So, yeah, definitely, you know, I

501
00:40:19.740 --> 00:40:20.950
robin murez: I,

502
00:40:21.270 --> 00:40:24.239
robin murez: one of the first to want to put this

503
00:40:24.360 --> 00:40:25.180
that.

504
00:40:25.560 --> 00:40:29.859
robin murez: Yeah, we were talking about the not sure exactly.

505
00:40:30.300 --> 00:40:32.990
robin murez: Yeah. Okay. Cool. So let's

506
00:40:33.070 --> 00:40:40.569
robin murez: I'll try to get something out on that we'll see how we can deal with it. I mean, I also. I think that to your comment is

507
00:40:40.750 --> 00:40:43.640
robin murez: related to you know I don't want to

508
00:40:44.720 --> 00:40:48.000
robin murez: keep bringing things to record part unless

509
00:40:48.160 --> 00:40:49.250
robin murez: you know

510
00:40:49.690 --> 00:40:51.660
robin murez: we we don't want to

511
00:40:52.310 --> 00:40:54.909
robin murez: in any way over them. But

512
00:40:55.210 --> 00:40:58.949
robin murez: these things are happening now, so if we don't

513
00:40:59.330 --> 00:41:00.649
robin murez: address them.

514
00:41:02.230 --> 00:41:03.620
robin murez: we're going to lose them.

515
00:41:03.770 --> 00:41:05.799
betsygoldman: Okay, all right.

516
00:41:08.760 --> 00:41:13.559
robin murez: And you know. And regarding that also. So we've got several of these things that.

517
00:41:13.680 --> 00:41:18.859
robin murez: or on our, you know old business. And Tracy Park being new.

518
00:41:18.890 --> 00:41:24.149
robin murez: she doesn't know about them, and I would really like to get a meeting with her to go over

519
00:41:24.220 --> 00:41:25.370
robin murez: all of them.

520
00:41:25.590 --> 00:41:28.129
robin murez: and I don't know if that's something that

521
00:41:29.160 --> 00:41:32.470
robin murez: any of you would join me in if we can

522
00:41:32.610 --> 00:41:34.950
robin murez: get it. You know as a zoom.

523
00:41:36.850 --> 00:41:43.800
robin murez: I, you know, but I think that would be really good to do so that we inform her of what the historic

524
00:41:44.340 --> 00:41:48.479
robin murez: sites are in Venice, and what you know we're hoping to

525
00:41:48.800 --> 00:41:53.350
robin murez: safe. Because, again, a city Council person has a tremendous amount of power.

526
00:41:53.740 --> 00:41:59.079
robin murez: Would any of you like to join if we can get a meeting with her.

527
00:41:59.360 --> 00:42:03.200
robin murez: I thought you would like to

528
00:42:03.310 --> 00:42:05.560
robin murez: great me.

529
00:42:06.410 --> 00:42:09.430
robin murez: We get acquainted with her

530
00:42:10.460 --> 00:42:13.720
robin murez: for that project and for my own so

531
00:42:14.270 --> 00:42:20.829
robin murez: right well for your own. So that wouldn't be like committee as such. But I mean.

532
00:42:21.480 --> 00:42:23.570
robin murez: I think you know that

533
00:42:24.200 --> 00:42:31.909
robin murez: No. Just to be acquainted with her. Yeah, no one. So I know where she's coming from, and

534
00:42:32.020 --> 00:42:33.739
robin murez: and she knows what

535
00:42:34.680 --> 00:42:39.930
robin murez: what we want to do where we're coming from.

536
00:42:40.380 --> 00:42:54.070
robin murez: Your own is actually getting historic designation for a property, and then it so it doesn't come under it right. It doesn't come under our committee as such, because it's not a public place.

537
00:42:54.160 --> 00:42:55.069
robin murez: but

538
00:42:55.550 --> 00:42:58.900
robin murez: it's publicly visible. It's in the you know, public

539
00:42:59.060 --> 00:43:00.850
robin murez: domain, so

540
00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:04.450
robin murez: I mean I i'm from Abbey Kenny's house. It would be

541
00:43:05.250 --> 00:43:07.120
robin murez: It would make, you know.

542
00:43:08.770 --> 00:43:12.670
robin murez: Yeah, I've drawn more attention to having to. Both.

543
00:43:12.690 --> 00:43:18.520
robin murez: Both structures have a Kenny South and are there what reach us out?

544
00:43:19.060 --> 00:43:22.609
robin murez: Yeah. But most structures in themselves

545
00:43:22.730 --> 00:43:32.460
robin murez: have historic value. I was there yesterday, and it's just. I just couldn't believe how many more

546
00:43:35.010 --> 00:43:40.100
robin murez: are. Well, they're not even glass anymore. They're just going up.

547
00:43:42.130 --> 00:43:44.870
robin murez: Yeah. Well, that's happening. Yeah.

548
00:43:45.290 --> 00:43:53.189
robin murez: And and the and the cool craftsmen houses that are being torn down. I know

549
00:43:53.540 --> 00:43:56.619
robin murez: the last time I went down a certain block. There was

550
00:43:56.910 --> 00:43:58.330
robin murez: a pop up.

551
00:43:58.530 --> 00:43:59.959
robin murez: I just.

552
00:44:00.650 --> 00:44:02.639
robin murez: and I feel like you come back.

553
00:44:02.740 --> 00:44:09.579
robin murez: And I went, and yesterday I went down the same block, and there are 2 new boxes.

554
00:44:10.300 --> 00:44:12.249
robin murez: So yeah.

555
00:44:13.360 --> 00:44:14.930
robin murez: Oh.

556
00:44:14.950 --> 00:44:21.089
robin murez: and actually, you've pointed out to me the cottages on Dell that are currently all boarded up.

557
00:44:21.300 --> 00:44:22.140
robin murez: And

558
00:44:22.640 --> 00:44:33.049
robin murez: you know what i'm talking about. So I don't know for sure but somebody I thought somebody else asking about it online, and I don't know, Betsy, if you're.

559
00:44:33.110 --> 00:44:38.549
robin murez: if you are able to check. But again, this is not public property. It's.

560
00:44:39.020 --> 00:44:44.079
robin murez: Those are privately on cottages, but they it's one of those whole series of

561
00:44:44.240 --> 00:44:56.339
robin murez: little cottages that are like connected. And so someone online said that they thought that they're being that they're being renovated that the insides are being renovated.

562
00:44:56.440 --> 00:45:00.020
robin murez: So I'm: I'm hoping they will.

563
00:45:00.160 --> 00:45:03.350
robin murez: Right? Exactly. Yeah.

564
00:45:05.540 --> 00:45:11.879
robin murez: Okay. So then, on our old business on the agenda, we also had the colonnade restoration

565
00:45:12.030 --> 00:45:14.190
robin murez: regarding that

566
00:45:14.740 --> 00:45:23.879
robin murez: we haven't done anything more with that. But Brian mentioned to me, and I don't know the details of it that he is working with a

567
00:45:24.220 --> 00:45:27.669
robin murez: architect, designer, builder whatever

568
00:45:27.980 --> 00:45:30.150
robin murez: for a property on.

569
00:45:30.220 --> 00:45:32.549
robin murez: I think, he said, on Market

570
00:45:32.620 --> 00:45:36.279
robin murez: Street, between Pacific and

571
00:45:36.890 --> 00:45:40.169
robin murez: I think that's where he said

572
00:45:40.720 --> 00:45:42.920
robin murez: that. And then they're going to put

573
00:45:42.980 --> 00:45:44.919
robin murez: a call of data.

574
00:45:45.710 --> 00:45:50.930
robin murez: So I said, oh, well, maybe that could be beneficial to our

575
00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:58.149
robin murez: project to getting. You know the historic capital, you know a mold made, and that and he just went. Yeah.

576
00:45:58.460 --> 00:46:05.390
robin murez: So, anyway, maybe that will be something that can benefit our effort to restore the colonnade.

577
00:46:05.620 --> 00:46:07.130
robin murez: And

578
00:46:07.940 --> 00:46:10.580
and so we'll have to, you know.

579
00:46:10.600 --> 00:46:12.970
robin murez: Stay tuned in. He does. Yeah.

580
00:46:13.270 --> 00:46:15.189
robin murez: I have a comment.

581
00:46:16.000 --> 00:46:17.760
robin murez: Having said, we.

582
00:46:18.130 --> 00:46:22.370
robin murez: our have found through the year that the colonates

583
00:46:22.570 --> 00:46:23.220
robin murez: then

584
00:46:23.540 --> 00:46:27.560
robin murez: or around the top, have to be recurrent.

585
00:46:27.760 --> 00:46:32.620
robin murez: Can we find a company that won't? Throw away the most, and you've been

586
00:46:32.870 --> 00:46:35.279
robin murez: all that money for the home? They say

587
00:46:35.320 --> 00:46:43.120
robin murez: I don't think it's because of the company as such. I

588
00:46:43.590 --> 00:46:53.529
robin murez: made moles myself, and well, my X used to make large architectural ones just like that, and it's the material itself that it's integrate.

589
00:46:54.040 --> 00:47:00.010
robin murez: So yeah, in order to get good detail, you have to use a material that is.

590
00:47:00.250 --> 00:47:01.500
robin murez: you know, like a.

591
00:47:02.120 --> 00:47:18.370
robin murez: It's a rubbery kind of material, and they just don't last forever it. They have a hard shell behind it, you know fiberglass shell, and inside that fiberglass cell. There's this rubbery material that will pick up all the details of

592
00:47:18.450 --> 00:47:26.090
robin murez: you know the capital, and it's just. They only relax for so many users and for so many years.

593
00:47:26.330 --> 00:47:29.949
robin murez: Yeah, you know, they crack. And you know how

594
00:47:30.150 --> 00:47:37.719
robin murez: rubber material. Yeah. So that's I think, the main issue. But I mean, that's why I once we.

595
00:47:37.790 --> 00:47:44.419
robin murez: if we can get that started, we would try to do as many as possible right away, so that

596
00:47:44.530 --> 00:47:47.330
robin murez: we get good use out of a mold.

597
00:47:47.870 --> 00:47:48.830
Yeah.

598
00:47:48.940 --> 00:48:00.539
robin murez: So one on the corner there a winward and the Pacific, I guess i'll from the corner there and save off. One is

599
00:48:00.730 --> 00:48:02.540
robin murez: like.

600
00:48:03.110 --> 00:48:05.290
robin murez: Yeah. And

601
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:07.000
robin murez: now i'm

602
00:48:07.350 --> 00:48:08.319
from level.

603
00:48:08.600 --> 00:48:11.840
robin murez: may have said what we could do.

604
00:48:11.870 --> 00:48:14.220
robin murez: but maybe we could just.

605
00:48:15.150 --> 00:48:20.800
robin murez: I've spoken to the owner of that building that Mona.

606
00:48:22.130 --> 00:48:25.499
robin murez: i'm not thinking, you guys know.

607
00:48:25.630 --> 00:48:26.830
robin murez: Yeah.

608
00:48:27.880 --> 00:48:29.089
robin murez: Robert.

609
00:48:29.160 --> 00:48:35.439
robin murez: Yeah. Yeah, Roger Webster. Thanks. So I I spoke to him about it specifically, and he said

610
00:48:35.520 --> 00:48:39.370
robin murez: it was just like. No, I don't want to do anything. It just always breaks again.

611
00:48:39.530 --> 00:48:41.199
robin murez: Which I thought, was the really

612
00:48:41.380 --> 00:48:52.890
robin murez: sad response. I mean, I would think we could also have one made for there that doesn't have that corner extending, or you know, maybe just something to protect it. But

613
00:48:53.580 --> 00:48:56.310
robin murez: I know exactly what you're talking about it's ridiculous

614
00:48:56.660 --> 00:48:58.899
robin murez: that it's it's they're looking ugly.

615
00:49:00.880 --> 00:49:03.820
robin murez: and and Mona certainly has

616
00:49:03.840 --> 00:49:07.010
robin murez: plenty of assets, one would think, to be able to

617
00:49:07.210 --> 00:49:09.000
pay for that to be

618
00:49:09.410 --> 00:49:21.129
robin murez: maintain nicely. But you know, whatever you know again it like. If we could get some momentum going on that, then maybe he would join in. But yeah, he wasn't wanting to

619
00:49:21.500 --> 00:49:28.089
robin murez: suggest that he would fix that corner one or or you know.

620
00:49:28.760 --> 00:49:30.640
robin murez: not even move it.

621
00:49:31.030 --> 00:49:33.049
robin murez: But you know, so it doesn't look

622
00:49:35.060 --> 00:49:37.470
robin murez: because the

623
00:49:37.600 --> 00:49:38.439
fine

624
00:49:39.120 --> 00:49:42.519
robin murez: some, you know, some truck or something.

625
00:49:42.690 --> 00:49:43.450
robin murez: Yeah.

626
00:49:43.510 --> 00:49:47.049
robin murez: I'm with you. And yeah, and so maybe we can

627
00:49:47.790 --> 00:49:54.689
robin murez: get back to doing that project at some point, perhaps, when there's a new Vmc. Board, because.

628
00:49:56.450 --> 00:50:00.449
robin murez: you know, this board is just so negative to

629
00:50:00.940 --> 00:50:04.440
robin murez: to me or to our project.

630
00:50:04.520 --> 00:50:08.779
robin murez: You know they they did pass our lifeguard motion, but that was

631
00:50:08.850 --> 00:50:10.149
robin murez: with.

632
00:50:10.480 --> 00:50:14.959
robin murez: you know, a a couple of the Board members being prepared to

633
00:50:15.360 --> 00:50:25.630
robin murez: not they. They did not call me or any of us with questions. They listen to Ismail lies, and they were going to

634
00:50:25.860 --> 00:50:29.550
robin murez: bring them up in. You know the public meeting instead of first.

635
00:50:29.570 --> 00:50:32.120
robin murez: you know, verifying and checking.

636
00:50:32.510 --> 00:50:35.300
robin murez: and that's what's infuriating to me is.

637
00:50:35.510 --> 00:50:38.939
robin murez: hey? We're like in this Together they should be

638
00:50:38.960 --> 00:50:43.300
robin murez: checking with the community before they just try to shoot us down.

639
00:50:43.520 --> 00:50:45.620
robin murez: So yeah, exactly. Yeah.

640
00:50:45.730 --> 00:50:49.959
robin murez: So yeah, the the current Vp.

641
00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:53.280
robin murez: Has been doing that on projects that

642
00:50:53.660 --> 00:50:55.350
that we've brought up, and

643
00:50:55.630 --> 00:50:59.530
robin murez: she's running for President, and I hope you all

644
00:51:00.220 --> 00:51:01.490
robin murez: you know no

645
00:51:01.610 --> 00:51:12.590
robin murez: how she has been handling things, because we certainly don't want that to continue, and we have a voice in the vote of who will be the next President, and we want a President who's going to

646
00:51:13.170 --> 00:51:15.479
robin murez: support cool stuff for Bennett

647
00:51:15.680 --> 00:51:16.950
and

648
00:51:17.260 --> 00:51:20.619
robin murez: listen to the community, and.

649
00:51:20.670 --> 00:51:23.699
robin murez: you know, not look for ways to try to shoot it down.

650
00:51:23.970 --> 00:51:24.950
robin murez: Exactly.

651
00:51:25.240 --> 00:51:35.590
robin murez: So okay, Moving on in our agenda, we also have the the way finding app is how it's listed on the agenda, and that is the

652
00:51:35.950 --> 00:51:37.509
robin murez: the walk into our app.

653
00:51:37.650 --> 00:51:43.199
robin murez: and that's okay. We it passed the Budget committee, and again she

654
00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:47.429
robin murez: came to that Budget Committee again the other night, and brought up these ridiculous

655
00:51:47.900 --> 00:51:50.339
robin murez: obstacles that had

656
00:51:50.390 --> 00:51:52.039
robin murez: that I do not think of

657
00:51:52.120 --> 00:52:05.330
robin murez: are accurate or relevant, and instead of bringing them to us in advance, so we could see how we might need to amend our proposal if needed. They just try to to.

658
00:52:05.430 --> 00:52:10.110
robin murez: you know, in the committee meeting. So it's infuriating.

659
00:52:10.720 --> 00:52:16.800
robin murez: So anyway, hope it did get passed by their committee despite this. But

660
00:52:18.600 --> 00:52:21.030
robin murez: I'm still having to try to

661
00:52:21.350 --> 00:52:31.730
robin murez: track this through the the current treasurer, who again he just drives to sabotage our project. I had asked him if he had any questions regarding it, and he

662
00:52:32.070 --> 00:52:44.199
robin murez: said, no, he didn't respond, and he said he sent it to the city that handled the funding regulation to have them review it. But he was like coming up with stuff initially, that

663
00:52:45.800 --> 00:52:52.079
robin murez: that Jim, you know my brother, who the President said, that has no merit. He's saying things like oh, well.

664
00:52:53.410 --> 00:52:56.409
robin murez: a request for Community Improvement Fund

665
00:52:56.430 --> 00:53:06.789
robin murez: Project cannot come from an AD Hoc committee, which is what our committee is, and Jim said, there's nothing in the bylaw that says that there's something. So he makes these things up.

666
00:53:06.860 --> 00:53:15.590
robin murez: And again, I don't understand it. I mean the walking to our app would only be beneficial. It was not my idea. I think it was

667
00:53:15.810 --> 00:53:19.230
robin murez: who best thing was it yours or Dominique, or

668
00:53:19.800 --> 00:53:22.649
robin murez: you know, but everybody has.

669
00:53:22.730 --> 00:53:25.100
robin murez: But it's a great idea to create.

670
00:53:25.290 --> 00:53:27.490
robin murez: and you know we since.

671
00:53:27.530 --> 00:53:32.800
robin murez: But Dominique and I went downtown and tried it out with some of their other tours, and

672
00:53:33.110 --> 00:53:33.890
robin murez: I

673
00:53:33.950 --> 00:53:35.979
robin murez: since posted.

674
00:53:36.180 --> 00:53:37.319
robin murez: you know, little

675
00:53:37.760 --> 00:53:39.059
robin murez: Yeah. Sample

676
00:53:39.180 --> 00:53:42.799
robin murez: tour, and it's really easy to use it's great.

677
00:53:42.900 --> 00:53:44.750
robin murez: and

678
00:53:45.000 --> 00:53:55.610
robin murez: i'll send that out to all of you, so you can see it also, but it so. I had updated the proposal, and again, it's just infuriating that

679
00:53:55.670 --> 00:53:58.720
robin murez: they seem to try to sabotage rather than support.

680
00:53:58.870 --> 00:54:02.310
robin murez: and on other projects they they support. So

681
00:54:03.560 --> 00:54:11.899
robin murez: and again I thought it was a great project for Venice. We have it, and then down to Central Avenue.

682
00:54:12.250 --> 00:54:16.739
robin murez: the other organization I can. I can't remember the name of it

683
00:54:17.730 --> 00:54:22.920
robin murez: made one, and they have the fact there and then they have the

684
00:54:24.060 --> 00:54:25.009
online.

685
00:54:25.450 --> 00:54:31.200
robin murez: and people can take a walk and go to, you know, walk from flat to black and read the history

686
00:54:31.390 --> 00:54:38.839
robin murez: perfect. Yeah, and the way we proposed it, it would be like our committee would use it for historic site, and then

687
00:54:39.040 --> 00:54:50.770
robin murez: other committees have said to me that they want to use it. There's you know, the Arbor Committee of the Neighborhood Council. They do everything about trees. They want to put trees on it with information about trees. There are people who would love to do that.

688
00:54:50.870 --> 00:55:04.300
robin murez: There's another committee that wants to have there. Be easy, easily found information about where playgrounds for kids and parks are around Venice. And so this is a perfect platform for that.

689
00:55:05.350 --> 00:55:20.289
robin murez: The ocean front part, the Ocean Front Walk committee, you know, wants to have there Be an easy way to find your way to Muscle Beach, or you know, and then to have information that one can learn it's. You know it'll serve everybody's interest.

690
00:55:20.630 --> 00:55:23.269
robin murez: But again, what happened? There was

691
00:55:23.440 --> 00:55:27.470
robin murez: the current vice President of the Neighborhood Council.

692
00:55:27.500 --> 00:55:35.000
robin murez: She refused to collaborate with us because we asked if they wanted to collaborate, because, she said, after we had our first meeting that.

693
00:55:35.110 --> 00:55:39.970
robin murez: and we said this was one of our ideas, She said, oh, well, our committee wants to do that, too.

694
00:55:40.050 --> 00:55:45.100
robin murez: So we approach them and said, hey, if you want to collaborate what you you know, how are you going about it?

695
00:55:45.130 --> 00:55:46.660
robin murez: I went to their zoom.

696
00:55:46.780 --> 00:55:50.180
robin murez: she said. No, we do not want to collaborate.

697
00:55:50.280 --> 00:55:52.799
robin murez: She submitted a proposal that was

698
00:55:53.250 --> 00:55:56.490
robin murez: completely without any like

699
00:55:56.570 --> 00:56:10.070
robin murez: information. No, you know I had the name of somebody on there without any qualifications, without any description it would be. And then, when our came up for review, they did not review our. They only reviewed her.

700
00:56:10.540 --> 00:56:19.089
robin murez: she and a anyway, and so then, also, the other night, when ours came up, a new she's also again coming up with completely ridiculous

701
00:56:19.140 --> 00:56:20.470
robin murez: obstacles.

702
00:56:20.620 --> 00:56:25.509
robin murez: and the treasurer doing the same, and it's infuriating, you know, like

703
00:56:25.540 --> 00:56:33.080
robin murez: we've done it right, and it's something that it's not going to benefit us Personally, it's just a good thing for Venice. So

704
00:56:33.540 --> 00:56:38.599
robin murez: I don't get it. I don't. I don't understand why these people are that way, and

705
00:56:38.730 --> 00:56:44.359
robin murez: being that way I don't understand why they want to be re-elected.

706
00:56:44.740 --> 00:56:48.540
robin murez: because it it makes them sense.

707
00:56:48.650 --> 00:56:51.979
robin murez: But so, so so far, it passed the Budget Committee.

708
00:56:52.090 --> 00:57:05.780
robin murez: It will probably be great to have you all speak when it comes before the board, and that should happen the next Bmc. Board meeting is the I think it's the third Tuesday of each month.

709
00:57:06.070 --> 00:57:08.509
robin murez: and i'll send you information on it.

710
00:57:08.570 --> 00:57:11.670
robin murez: So just like, have you speak under

711
00:57:11.750 --> 00:57:14.159
robin murez: public comment, or when this comes up

712
00:57:14.180 --> 00:57:16.929
robin murez: to say that you think it's a great thing.

713
00:57:17.320 --> 00:57:22.950
robin murez: you know, and i'll make sure you you receive. You know the information note about how

714
00:57:23.010 --> 00:57:25.909
robin murez: it works. I mean, I think we've looked at it before. And

715
00:57:26.120 --> 00:57:28.060
robin murez: but yeah.

716
00:57:28.430 --> 00:57:31.060
robin murez: So you know one of the problems is that it's

717
00:57:31.630 --> 00:57:34.039
robin murez: that if things just come from me.

718
00:57:34.060 --> 00:57:34.890
robin murez: you know

719
00:57:35.300 --> 00:57:42.070
robin murez: it's it's not as good as if they were coming from more other people, from the community.

720
00:57:42.230 --> 00:57:44.539
from our committee, whatever.

721
00:57:44.600 --> 00:57:48.499
robin murez: So, Tim.

722
00:57:49.150 --> 00:57:54.309
robin murez: Okay, see, this is all that it takes to be on our committee. It's just

723
00:57:54.730 --> 00:57:57.659
robin murez: yeah, just you know, being another voice to

724
00:57:59.630 --> 00:58:00.790
robin murez: Okay, cool.

725
00:58:02.530 --> 00:58:08.589
robin murez: And then okay, next with the site markers. So they shot that one down, saying that

726
00:58:09.320 --> 00:58:11.569
robin murez: we can't put markers on

727
00:58:11.700 --> 00:58:30.600
robin murez: private place without having high lucky without having authorization or or that you know, Neighborhood Council funds cannot be used to put anything on private places, and we have to identify where we would put markers. So whatever we could come up with a list

728
00:58:30.610 --> 00:58:33.209
robin murez: we are talking about, that

729
00:58:33.680 --> 00:58:37.179
robin murez: on the list of the public places where we could put site markers.

730
00:58:37.280 --> 00:58:40.049
robin murez: So we'll do that, but also to just

731
00:58:40.540 --> 00:58:41.540
robin murez: do this.

732
00:58:42.100 --> 00:58:47.100
robin murez: sony. You said they had nice black on the walking tour that you know of.

733
00:58:47.190 --> 00:58:57.340
robin murez: We can also start it just with having QR. Codes, which we print out, you know, for next to nothing, little stickers and stick them around in

734
00:58:57.420 --> 00:59:04.830
robin murez: places in Venice, and that could also initially be a way to bring attention. But yeah, it it would be

735
00:59:05.310 --> 00:59:09.680
robin murez: to have there be some nice site Markers that offered.

736
00:59:10.220 --> 00:59:10.970
robin murez: you know.

737
00:59:11.240 --> 00:59:16.219
robin murez: Give the stories of the site as we've talked about, so

738
00:59:18.030 --> 00:59:24.630
robin murez: maybe we can start with the ones that are definitely on public property, and

739
00:59:24.980 --> 00:59:29.230
robin murez: that if you can maybe help me identify that that would be great who never can.

740
00:59:33.150 --> 00:59:37.899
robin murez: Okay, then, the next item on our old business was the

741
00:59:37.940 --> 00:59:40.020
robin murez: Westminster Club has released.

742
00:59:40.270 --> 00:59:41.959
robin murez: and or the

743
00:59:42.100 --> 00:59:44.819
robin murez: having it become the historic resource center.

744
00:59:45.120 --> 00:59:48.759
robin murez: I think I don't know if you all know the update on that as well.

745
00:59:48.960 --> 00:59:53.210
robin murez: Still, with the Historical Society that she did not want us to.

746
00:59:53.400 --> 00:59:55.459
robin murez: You have any kind of

747
00:59:56.150 --> 00:59:59.930
robin murez: the court or motion for that. So we didn't.

748
01:00:00.140 --> 01:00:02.829
robin murez: And I did just

749
01:00:03.390 --> 01:00:07.050
robin murez: see that it has been announced. It was actually in

750
01:00:07.160 --> 01:00:20.339
robin murez: the website current that the club has is now going to revert to being a a senior center. So it appears that the Historical Society has not done anything to

751
01:00:20.460 --> 01:00:23.550
robin murez: put a request in, to be able to use that they

752
01:00:23.670 --> 01:00:26.209
robin murez: a real thing

753
01:00:26.250 --> 01:00:27.160
robin murez: for

754
01:00:28.250 --> 01:00:35.610
robin murez: that. His history has done it. I mean, there just should be a site. But you know, maybe there are things there'll be worked on behind the scenes which

755
01:00:36.120 --> 01:00:39.930
robin murez: we'll make it that. But it it does seem like

756
01:00:40.040 --> 01:00:42.599
Well, Tony, you're on that

757
01:00:43.070 --> 01:00:45.050
robin murez: Historical Society board.

758
01:00:46.020 --> 01:00:48.640
robin murez: I didn't care anything about it

759
01:00:48.810 --> 01:00:50.009
robin murez: about meeting.

760
01:00:51.060 --> 01:00:52.890
robin murez: It works in the address.

761
01:00:53.520 --> 01:00:57.910
robin murez: Yeah, so you might not to address it. Because again, you guys

762
01:00:58.000 --> 01:01:00.730
robin murez: have needed a site for years, You.

763
01:01:00.870 --> 01:01:02.770
robin murez: you know, wanted that site.

764
01:01:02.900 --> 01:01:03.939
robin murez: and

765
01:01:04.520 --> 01:01:05.660
robin murez: now it's.

766
01:01:05.700 --> 01:01:11.120
robin murez: you know the time I mean whatever last month, or like or 2 ago, would have been the time.

767
01:01:11.300 --> 01:01:16.850
robin murez: So that's break it up. But certainly at least now it still could happen, I think, if

768
01:01:17.130 --> 01:01:21.319
robin murez: you know, perhaps; but if it's not even requested it won't. Happen

769
01:01:23.380 --> 01:01:26.170
robin murez: I can

770
01:01:26.290 --> 01:01:27.679
robin murez: when i'm in the

771
01:01:29.380 --> 01:01:30.960
robin murez: by the

772
01:01:31.070 --> 01:01:33.330
robin murez: I can.

773
01:01:33.970 --> 01:01:35.729
robin murez: But you're not on the board. Still.

774
01:01:36.240 --> 01:01:37.569
robin murez: i'm I

775
01:01:37.920 --> 01:01:39.769
robin murez: on the board, but i'm not

776
01:01:40.510 --> 01:01:41.109
right

777
01:01:41.150 --> 01:01:41.830
robin murez: any more.

778
01:01:42.690 --> 01:01:48.630
robin murez: But that's because you you join this committee. So that was.

779
01:01:48.890 --> 01:01:53.849
robin murez: and and because the Board members really like for us that

780
01:01:54.300 --> 01:01:57.419
robin murez: the letter I'm. Posting the monster.

781
01:01:58.140 --> 01:01:59.470
robin murez: And

782
01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:05.099
robin murez: you know, maybe that was giving me too much power or something. I don't know.

783
01:02:06.480 --> 01:02:07.819
robin murez: Okay? Well.

784
01:02:07.840 --> 01:02:14.260
robin murez: I don't know what one thing has to do with the other. But the I'm making a a risk with the other working.

785
01:02:14.340 --> 01:02:15.180
Okay.

786
01:02:15.610 --> 01:02:21.839
robin murez: Yeah. So I don't think we're making it. I think we need to stand together, you know, with it.

787
01:02:21.920 --> 01:02:23.559
robin murez: If if we don't know

788
01:02:23.900 --> 01:02:32.069
robin murez: who care about Venice history support one another, support savings on its history is just not going to be these days. So

789
01:02:32.140 --> 01:02:34.189
robin murez: right? And so I said.

790
01:02:34.710 --> 01:02:40.599
robin murez: Try to save what I can, but I can. I could try and bring it up again.

791
01:02:41.940 --> 01:02:47.389
robin murez: Yeah, I mean, I think it would be in the interest of

792
01:02:47.550 --> 01:02:53.599
robin murez: the Historical Society, and certainly in the interest of Venice, to have there be a historic resource center.

793
01:02:54.030 --> 01:02:57.369
robin murez: At the time I saw it was a matter of timing.

794
01:02:57.670 --> 01:02:59.140
robin murez: you know.

795
01:03:00.290 --> 01:03:05.519
robin murez: because I still was working on some other things to, and

796
01:03:06.020 --> 01:03:09.210
robin murez: It's like a better here. But now I can

797
01:03:09.650 --> 01:03:11.409
robin murez: try bringing it up again.

798
01:03:12.100 --> 01:03:15.189
robin murez: Yeah, I I would certainly do so, and you know

799
01:03:16.150 --> 01:03:18.279
robin murez: I had also suggested that

800
01:03:18.400 --> 01:03:20.619
robin murez: it's not there like the

801
01:03:21.020 --> 01:03:21.950
robin murez: the

802
01:03:22.390 --> 01:03:23.580
robin murez: original

803
01:03:23.630 --> 01:03:29.859
robin murez: jail. And you know, police station is a, you know, a fabulous, publicly owned building. And

804
01:03:29.980 --> 01:03:34.749
robin murez: actually, somebody yesterday said to me that

805
01:03:35.360 --> 01:03:36.000
robin murez: and

806
01:03:36.020 --> 01:03:45.919
robin murez: that he thought it would be great for a museum. And i'm like, yeah, that's good, you know. We wanted to see if it could be opened up, please more

807
01:03:47.650 --> 01:03:49.009
robin murez: for that one

808
01:03:49.610 --> 01:03:50.949
robin murez: to it. But

809
01:03:51.070 --> 01:03:53.309
robin murez: we were only offered

810
01:03:53.720 --> 01:03:55.650
robin murez: the basement, and

811
01:04:02.140 --> 01:04:03.419
robin murez: from being made

812
01:04:04.150 --> 01:04:06.520
robin murez: my name is called it

813
01:04:07.690 --> 01:04:08.419
robin murez: correct

814
01:04:08.540 --> 01:04:12.029
robin murez: whole thing me day. Yeah, what's this term?

815
01:04:13.710 --> 01:04:18.299
robin murez: No repairs or yeah, or renovation

816
01:04:18.710 --> 01:04:19.339
robin murez: shared by

817
01:04:19.360 --> 01:04:21.569
robin murez: the whole room couldn't be

818
01:04:22.600 --> 01:04:25.560
robin murez: the change of weather.

819
01:04:26.090 --> 01:04:27.229
robin murez: you know. It was

820
01:04:27.250 --> 01:04:30.969
robin murez: to deteriorating the historical

821
01:04:32.400 --> 01:04:36.850
robin murez: item because of the change in temperature.

822
01:04:38.340 --> 01:04:41.930
robin murez: I don't know what you call it. But when you

823
01:04:43.060 --> 01:04:46.669
robin murez: yeah well, I mean the climate control

824
01:04:47.380 --> 01:04:52.550
robin murez: in the language. You need it quite much control

825
01:04:53.360 --> 01:04:54.069
definitely

826
01:04:54.230 --> 01:04:57.820
robin murez: control of the environment.

827
01:04:58.410 --> 01:04:59.240
robin murez: Thanks.

828
01:04:59.260 --> 01:05:04.620
robin murez: Right? Well and again, I mean, we've talked about this before, but

829
01:05:05.040 --> 01:05:06.350
robin murez: I think that

830
01:05:07.320 --> 01:05:23.470
robin murez: ask for another portion of that building if he chose not just to accept what had been suggested, and if it's a climate control issue, I don't see how the clubhouse is any better. It's just like a little wooden building versus

831
01:05:23.540 --> 01:05:25.229
robin murez: the account.

832
01:05:25.350 --> 01:05:30.279
robin murez: I understand. Yeah. So whatever we don't need to go into it further. Now

833
01:05:31.010 --> 01:05:31.709
robin murez: that lady

834
01:05:32.310 --> 01:05:35.959
robin murez: it's very controlling.

835
01:05:36.220 --> 01:05:37.069
robin murez: Yeah.

836
01:05:37.100 --> 01:05:43.729
robin murez: they pay a dollar idea from the city, and I understand she was charging.

837
01:05:44.710 --> 01:05:47.019
and so she didn't want to give us

838
01:05:48.120 --> 01:05:48.979
grandpa

839
01:05:49.170 --> 01:05:50.580
robin murez: money, I guess

840
01:05:50.670 --> 01:05:56.209
robin murez: right. But again she has a lease with the city. It's very similar to the lifeguard talent.

841
01:05:56.230 --> 01:06:00.590
betsygoldman: We can, we continue, please?

842
01:06:00.750 --> 01:06:02.510
robin murez: Sure. Yeah. Yeah.

843
01:06:03.260 --> 01:06:12.140
robin murez: Okay. So then, also on old business. Well, the Venice Lifeguard Headquarters Tower is mentioned. And so.

844
01:06:12.360 --> 01:06:20.529
robin murez: Tony, before you came on, I mentioned that Well, so Recon Park put a hold on the demolition, asking us to

845
01:06:20.690 --> 01:06:23.280
robin murez: bring proposals, for

846
01:06:24.710 --> 01:06:25.580
robin murez: you know.

847
01:06:25.600 --> 01:06:34.830
robin murez: repurposing it in August. So we need to work on that. Then Tracy Park also said that no matter what it's not being demolished.

848
01:06:35.170 --> 01:06:51.909
robin murez: I don't have details on how she has stated that, and then I learned just now that is Male Lopez, who has been the project manager, who has been the key person presenting the false information has been

849
01:06:52.710 --> 01:06:54.380
robin murez: transferred.

850
01:06:55.010 --> 01:07:00.070
robin murez: So it does appear in every way that we have safe and life guard towers.

851
01:07:00.110 --> 01:07:01.209
robin murez: Oh, that's not

852
01:07:01.470 --> 01:07:02.319
robin murez: yeah.

853
01:07:02.470 --> 01:07:15.380
robin murez: Yeah. Tonight. In the there is a land use planning committee meeting of the Neighborhood Council and I went to their last meeting and brought to their attention that that Coastal Commission

854
01:07:15.440 --> 01:07:19.730
robin murez: de minimis waiver to you know the basically the permit that

855
01:07:20.340 --> 01:07:39.599
robin murez: would allow demolition that was passed was issued back in July. You know, I requested that it be invalidated because it's based on false information in that it says that it's a county owned building, and that it is, you know, on its last legs

856
01:07:40.080 --> 01:07:50.020
robin murez: sent the Coastal Commission. The documents that show that those 2 things are all that it's a city owned building, and that it has no structural deficiencies.

857
01:07:50.110 --> 01:07:54.790
robin murez: But they refuse my personal request that it be

858
01:07:55.370 --> 01:07:56.779
robin murez: invalidated.

859
01:07:56.810 --> 01:07:57.680
robin murez: So

860
01:07:58.190 --> 01:07:58.819
okay.

861
01:07:58.970 --> 01:08:16.899
robin murez: though we passed our our motion before the Neighborhood Council, we didn't specify that in the motion, because that motion we wrote back in November before. I even knew all of this, anyway. So I brought it to Lupeck, just thinking, even though we believe we've stopped the demolition. It just seems ridiculous for that

862
01:08:16.939 --> 01:08:18.849
robin murez: completely erroneous

863
01:08:21.100 --> 01:08:37.189
robin murez: permit to still be on the book, because actually what the person over the staff person who signed off on this at the Coastal Commission said to me, is no, it's it's issued, and they can tear it down at any point, because, you know, coastal Commission has like

864
01:08:37.470 --> 01:08:39.829
robin murez: there. They have ultimate

865
01:08:39.990 --> 01:08:41.139
approval of

866
01:08:41.319 --> 01:08:42.229
robin murez: project.

867
01:08:42.330 --> 01:08:44.809
robin murez: So anyway, the

868
01:08:45.830 --> 01:08:54.520
robin murez: tonight at 7 Pm. I think it's 7 Pm. I think it's 7 Pm. The land use and planning committee of the Neighborhood Council is going to consider

869
01:08:55.529 --> 01:09:02.650
robin murez: it. They I I told them all the information, and and they said, yeah, we'll put through that motion, and so

870
01:09:02.930 --> 01:09:07.550
that would be to formally have the maybe the Council as

871
01:09:07.740 --> 01:09:10.289
robin murez: the Coastal Commission to invalidate

872
01:09:10.370 --> 01:09:13.670
robin murez: their erroneous waiver.

873
01:09:13.740 --> 01:09:17.519
robin murez: And so, together with that, coming up to 9.

874
01:09:17.620 --> 01:09:20.389
I saw on their agenda

875
01:09:20.500 --> 01:09:27.580
robin murez: that they have Jessica. Who is that spelled Kate a. Au.

876
01:09:28.359 --> 01:09:33.010
robin murez: He is Tracy's head of planning, and he is, you know one of the people I've

877
01:09:33.160 --> 01:09:37.400
robin murez: dealt with in Tracy's office, and he is an invited guest to their meeting.

878
01:09:37.450 --> 01:09:39.540
robin murez: So if anybody wants to

879
01:09:40.700 --> 01:09:44.219
robin murez: either chime in regarding the motion or

880
01:09:44.840 --> 01:09:50.719
robin murez: meet Jessica. That will be on the zoom that is tonight at, I believe, at 7 Pm.

881
01:09:50.990 --> 01:09:56.890
robin murez: And that information is on the Neighborhood Council website, or I can send it to you

882
01:09:56.980 --> 01:09:58.589
robin murez: if you want.

883
01:10:00.370 --> 01:10:12.550
robin murez: and then let's see. So we're gonna need to put together business plan and get fine sources of funding. And and so we're working on those things, as we already kind of informally talk about.

884
01:10:12.670 --> 01:10:14.940
robin murez: and the walking to our app

885
01:10:14.990 --> 01:10:17.969
robin murez: will be. I already discussed that.

886
01:10:18.490 --> 01:10:24.000
robin murez: And I think that that's everything on our old business.

887
01:10:25.070 --> 01:10:28.099
robin murez: Is there anything that anybody else

888
01:10:28.860 --> 01:10:33.920
robin murez: wants to bring up? Because Basically, our new business, I would say, is also

889
01:10:34.160 --> 01:10:36.570
robin murez: then continuing to work on

890
01:10:36.970 --> 01:10:42.079
robin murez: those matters that we discussed under the old business that are continuing like the historic parklet

891
01:10:42.610 --> 01:10:44.700
robin murez: and the

892
01:10:45.100 --> 01:10:46.830
robin murez: walking to our app.

893
01:10:48.930 --> 01:10:51.409
robin murez: and, you know, continuing with your life guaranteed

894
01:10:52.100 --> 01:11:00.740
robin murez: so anything else that you guys want to focus on regarding new business or any comments regarding all business. Or

895
01:11:00.860 --> 01:11:04.970
betsygoldman: did you say this name is K. H. A. U.

896
01:11:05.500 --> 01:11:08.389
robin murez: It's K. H. A. N.

897
01:11:11.480 --> 01:11:12.600
robin murez: No, it's not.

898
01:11:12.620 --> 01:11:16.530
betsygoldman: Yes, it is. I just looked at the announcement at the email.

899
01:11:17.170 --> 01:11:20.549
robin murez: Oh, I'm quite sure, then that they wrote it wrong

900
01:11:21.590 --> 01:11:23.410
robin murez: because it's it's cow.

901
01:11:23.590 --> 01:11:25.059
robin murez: It's

902
01:11:27.420 --> 01:11:33.669
robin murez: that you know what you looked at the agenda or no. I looked at the email from the from the Vnc.

903
01:11:33.700 --> 01:11:35.559
betsygoldman: Saying that he was going to

904
01:11:35.690 --> 01:11:37.780
betsygoldman: the and the Zoom Meeting.

905
01:11:38.010 --> 01:11:48.129
robin murez: Yeah, no, that's wrong. I I first met him at Tracy's inauguration event. I walked up to him right after she was

906
01:11:48.260 --> 01:11:55.339
robin murez: sworn in, or what is it so wearing in ceremony. That's when I met him that first day. That's what it says.

907
01:11:55.560 --> 01:12:02.469
robin murez: Yeah. And I've been emailing back and forth with him and have it phone calls, and no, yeah, they They did a typo.

908
01:12:02.760 --> 01:12:05.149
robin murez: But i'm glad that you

909
01:12:05.550 --> 01:12:07.340
robin murez: notice this detail.

910
01:12:08.780 --> 01:12:09.650
robin murez: Okay.

911
01:12:09.810 --> 01:12:12.990
robin murez: So yeah, that's and again it's

912
01:12:13.020 --> 01:12:22.069
robin murez: if you if anybody could join on the zoom. If there's discussion of the Life Card Headquarters motion. If he's there, it's always good to have more voices

913
01:12:22.100 --> 01:12:24.040
robin murez: signing in and saying.

914
01:12:24.220 --> 01:12:29.369
robin murez: you know. Thank you for doing it, Jeff. Please do it. The that first

915
01:12:29.620 --> 01:12:36.340
robin murez: day there, when I met him, and I was briefly running him through what was happening at that point.

916
01:12:36.400 --> 01:12:40.330
robin murez: and I told him that we've discovered that that erroneous

917
01:12:40.620 --> 01:12:43.800
robin murez: Coastal commission waiver had been

918
01:12:43.860 --> 01:12:49.870
robin murez: approved. He immediately said, oh, well, we need to get that invalidated. And I said, yeah.

919
01:12:50.060 --> 01:12:52.629
robin murez: but I don't know that

920
01:12:53.160 --> 01:12:54.590
robin murez: his office has

921
01:12:54.770 --> 01:12:59.019
robin murez: tried to do anything with it. I sent him a copy of our

922
01:12:59.700 --> 01:13:04.520
robin murez: of the motion we've sent over to Loopak, asking that when you planning committee

923
01:13:05.480 --> 01:13:08.079
robin murez: asking that if you put on their agenda, so

924
01:13:08.540 --> 01:13:15.849
robin murez: you know I don't know if they get so many emails they don't read them. They don't get back to me. But you know I try to keep him in the loop, and

925
01:13:16.830 --> 01:13:18.209
robin murez: I believe that

926
01:13:18.670 --> 01:13:21.070
robin murez: Tracy spoke directly to

927
01:13:21.500 --> 01:13:24.059
Lindsey Horvath, Who's the new

928
01:13:24.330 --> 01:13:25.280

929
01:13:25.500 --> 01:13:26.760
robin murez: Supervisor

930
01:13:27.040 --> 01:13:28.440
for that?

931
01:13:29.200 --> 01:13:31.560
robin murez: And I think that's probably

932
01:13:31.780 --> 01:13:33.619
robin murez: what could the final

933
01:13:34.240 --> 01:13:35.830
robin murez: about on there

934
01:13:36.820 --> 01:13:38.539
robin murez: desire to do the

935
01:13:38.730 --> 01:13:40.389
demolition.

936
01:13:40.740 --> 01:13:43.179
robin murez: She actually texted me one night

937
01:13:43.400 --> 01:13:46.910
robin murez: asking where the document was that

938
01:13:47.200 --> 01:13:48.510
robin murez: showed that

939
01:13:49.690 --> 01:13:52.009
robin murez: the county has the duty to

940
01:13:52.840 --> 01:14:01.099
robin murez: repair. And Of course this was probably 2 months after I had sent it over to she and Robin.

941
01:14:01.140 --> 01:14:02.809
robin murez: Yeah enough.

942
01:14:03.400 --> 01:14:04.529

robin murez: I also do that. Well, I don't know how much people want to be aware of. You know the things or not, so I just want to be transparent in.

947
01:14:21.370 --> 01:14:25.650
robin murez: and all that. I know that's going on. But yeah, we can

948
01:14:25.940 --> 01:14:32.129
robin murez: go to Item Number 6, which is to adjourn the meeting if nobody has.

949
01:14:32.180 --> 01:14:34.000

01:14:40.470 --> 01:14:47.320
robin murez: No, no, I I was just trying to give more detail on stuff that I know that's gone on. But there's

958
01:15:17.840 --> 01:15:20.019

timrudnick: bathrooms.

960
01:15:21.580 --> 01:15:25.880
timrudnick: and he said that there was a proposal to to tear things down, and

961
01:15:26.220 --> 01:15:27.989
timrudnick: I don't know much about it. But

962
01:15:29.110 --> 01:15:31.410
timrudnick: nice. Look into that.

963
01:15:31.490 --> 01:15:35.069
robin murez: I try to find out more about it, Robin, and let you know.

964
01:15:35.320 --> 01:15:38.530
robin murez: Okay, that would be great. Yeah, I mean.

965
01:15:39.310 --> 01:15:50.170
robin murez: we have something done to them. But the mosaics are beautiful that he did. Yeah, yeah. And Billy, was he, he what he and his

966
01:15:50.260 --> 01:15:53.299
robin murez: his then wife, who who did so much it?

967
01:15:54.120 --> 01:15:54.990
robin murez: Yeah.

968
01:15:55.340 --> 01:15:59.649
robin murez: Yeah. So. And that should be also protected by you know

969
01:16:00.190 --> 01:16:11.390
robin murez: the department of Cultural Affairs for public art. But and it would again be the county beaches and harbor. That would be proposing such a thing. So

970
01:16:11.640 --> 01:16:26.210
robin murez: yeah, wow! Had not heard of thing, and i'd love for somebody else to be able to follow up. I'll see what I can find out and let you know I i'll talk to Bill at some time, anyway.

971
01:16:26.470 --> 01:16:28.610
robin murez: Okay, yeah. There there is.

972
01:16:29.790 --> 01:16:33.550
robin murez: theoretically an Arts Committee of the Neighborhood Council.

973
01:16:33.620 --> 01:16:34.480
robin murez: but

974
01:16:34.800 --> 01:16:40.040
robin murez: the person who had set up Bruno. He Hasn't, had a single meeting, so

975
01:16:40.270 --> 01:16:49.119
robin murez: you know, but one would think that they could also take it up. But maybe if we bring that specifically. If you find out more.

976
01:16:49.140 --> 01:16:54.290
robin murez: Yeah, please tell me you you're also in touch with Danya on the

978
01:16:57.120 --> 01:16:58.839
robin murez: she should know something.

robin murez: She she worked for Reckon Park. She's very good. She's out there at the you know. Ocean Front walk. Oh, another committee that could handle it to take it up is the Ocean Front Walk committee.

984
01:17:25.690 --> 01:17:39.539
robin murez: and Jim Rob has set up. And so, yeah, if you could find out anything more. I'll just send it also to those other committees. But yeah, so, Sonya young himena, she should know something more.

985
01:17:39.760 --> 01:17:41.340
robin murez: And

986
01:17:41.750 --> 01:17:47.489
robin murez: and then, yeah, we'll try to put the word out, so that hopefully our committee doesn't have to take that one up to.

987
01:17:47.640 --> 01:17:52.000
robin murez: But that's all built today. And

988
01:17:52.170 --> 01:17:56.600
timrudnick: yeah, i'll find out and let you know what he knows and maybe connect the 2 of you.

989
01:17:56.950 --> 01:18:01.839
robin murez: Sure. Yeah, we we've met through the years and

990
01:18:03.170 --> 01:18:09.250
robin murez: and yeah, and I i'm with you that that should not be destroyed.

991
01:18:10.440 --> 01:18:18.870
timrudnick: And it is a public, You know, that that's falling apart, and he's been desperately trying to get the city to

992
01:18:18.920 --> 01:18:22.740
timrudnick: put in the money to renovate the thing before it falls on it becomes a

993
01:18:23.070 --> 01:18:30.270
timrudnick: a a safety issue because it's it's just apparently being really badly affected by the weather.

994
01:18:30.680 --> 01:18:38.129
timrudnick: His ceramic, the the of the children's place. Yeah, children.

995
01:18:38.480 --> 01:18:44.500
robin murez: Oh, interesting. I'll go Look at it for stuff. I didn't realize it was.

996
01:18:44.820 --> 01:18:45.630
robin murez: Oh.

997
01:18:45.870 --> 01:18:46.700
robin murez: huh!

998
01:18:47.000 --> 01:18:50.390
robin murez: It's crazy! The piece of falling off of it

999
01:18:51.240 --> 01:18:55.640
robin murez: It it should be that the Department of Cultural Affairs would

1000
01:18:56.970 --> 01:19:04.060
robin murez: would preserve it, and there are like actual Federal laws about having to protect public art.

1001
01:19:05.350 --> 01:19:06.349
robin murez: So

1002
01:19:07.140 --> 01:19:08.500
robin murez: yeah, you might.

1003
01:19:08.770 --> 01:19:15.319
robin murez: you know, suggest them that he get in touch with the Department of Cultural affairs, and that's who commissioned him, I think initially.

1004
01:19:15.420 --> 01:19:18.310
robin murez: I think it was done through them.

1005
01:19:20.540 --> 01:19:22.340
robin murez: and hopefully they

1006
01:19:22.540 --> 01:19:23.670
robin murez: they would

1007
01:19:24.370 --> 01:19:27.779
robin murez: get on board. But I mean you can also call me, and

1008
