Sean obrien: But we do have to support and fight back Venice, for their efforts and the lawsuit and anybody all in attendance and whatnot if we can get people to show up.

137
00:13:49.350 --> 00:13:59.070
Sean obrien: It is no longer a homeless, housing, it is no longer prompt to mental health, housing, it is now affordable housing with.

138
00:13:59.910 --> 00:14:12.780
Sean obrien: 60 to $90,000 a year to to be able to rent those units and only three units are set aside for ultra low income, housing, ie the homeless.

142
00:14:28.560 --> 00:14:29.370
jim robb: Lisa read been.

143
00:14:32.010 --> 00:14:34.620
jim robb: Judy and Sean can you lower your hands, please, thank you.

144
00:14:35.490 --> 00:14:37.320
jim robb: hi hi Lisa.

145
00:14:37.740 --> 00:14:51.300
Lisa Redmond: hi Jim hi everyone, good evening I wanted to bring up a point that I know everyone is overly fatigued with homelessness and encampments.

146
00:14:51.690 --> 00:15:01.230
Lisa Redmond: But I want to point out that illegally removing encampments on your own or hiring someone to do that.

147
00:15:01.680 --> 00:15:12.870
Lisa Redmond: is completely illegal and does not solve the issue whatsoever and do use a phrase from my friend, Brian a rural it's just kicking the can down the road.

148
00:15:13.800 --> 00:15:22.380
Lisa Redmond: Many times, people are in place, they have made connections with service providers and service providers are really stepping up now.

149
00:15:22.830 --> 00:15:35.940
Lisa Redmond: and working with people for housing and health and mental illness and if they are illegally removed or someone has hired somebody to legally remove them through a vigilante means.

150
00:15:36.330 --> 00:15:43.080
Lisa Redmond: That doesn't help anything, and in fact it even makes the problem worse, not only are they not located by service providers.

151
00:15:43.530 --> 00:15:52.380
Lisa Redmond: But, most people that are on the street, have already been failed many times over by the system, and when people are treated more dramatically.

152
00:15:52.680 --> 00:16:10.440
Lisa Redmond: They are more service resistant so i'm going to encourage everyone, not only on ocean front walk but elsewhere in Venice, please, please, please do not take matters into your own hands or thereby even hire someone else to take matters into your own hands for you, thank you very much.

153
00:16:12.300 --> 00:16:13.860
Brian Averill: Thanks Lisa Jimmy muted.

00:16:16.650 --> 00:16:19.950

171
00:17:50.520 --> 00:17:56.190

189
00:19:07.080 --> 00:19:13.740
Sonya Young Jimenez: A lot of different emergency activations throughout the city, if you don't know reckon parks handles the mass Karen sheltering branch for the whole city of La.

190
00:19:14.070 --> 00:19:17.970
Sonya Young Jimenez: So whenever we have a massive wildfire of course cove ID or.

191
00:19:18.420 --> 00:19:26.310
Sonya Young Jimenez: Any hazardous leads when people have to leave their homes, they get usually shelter within a wreck and parks facility either run by American Red Cross or recreation and parks staff.

192
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:34.620
Sonya Young Jimenez: who leave trained up the last several years ago, we did sheltering the whole company, so it was a variance working with the homeless.

193
00:19:35.370 --> 00:19:39.000
Sonya Young Jimenez: Service providers and different departments, and I did that throughout.

194

00:20:09.480 --> 00:20:17.370
Brian Averill: Sonia do you want to if any of the committee members have any just basic general questions would you want to tackle.

198
00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:19.440
Brian Averill: quickly nothing, nothing too broad.

199
00:20:20.460 --> 00:20:20.790
Okay.

200
00:20:26.490 --> 00:20:27.780

00:20:28.200 --> 00:20:29.820
Brian Averill: looks like Nick rather.

202
00:20:30.270 --> 00:20:31.890
jim robb: Okay yeah Nick.

203
00:20:33.330 --> 00:20:44.880
Nick Antonicello: Had a couple questions, the first one is what is the power washing schedule at ocean front walk and I know you do the bathrooms and things like that, but.

204
00:20:46.620 --> 00:20:50.490
Nick Antonicello: What kind of power washing do you do for the basketball courts, the.

205
00:20:51.660 --> 00:20:57.840
Nick Antonicello: All the other facilities there, and my second question is is your department ahead of the Venice Pier.

206
00:20:58.980 --> 00:21:02.820
Nick Antonicello: And if you are do you have anything to do with that movie like did they have last week.

207
00:21:04.950 --> 00:21:15.450
Sonya Young Jimenez: Yes, i'll let me answer first so power washing so, to be frank, we are very short staffed at Venice I just hired on we just got approved seven people to start in the next week or so part time.

208
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:16.050
Sonya Young Jimenez: And then.

209
00:21:16.290 --> 00:21:22.950
Sonya Young Jimenez: working to get a couple maybe three or four more and also some full time staff so we lost a lot of people don't you guys know but.

210
00:21:23.340 --> 00:21:31.950
Sonya Young Jimenez: The last probably six months they did it early entire early retirement incentive program so we lost like 170 people in the department of record parks, a lot of them from.

211
00:21:32.610 --> 00:21:36.750
Sonya Young Jimenez: You know who've been around for a long time took the early retirement so we've been kind of struggling.

212
00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:45.990
Sonya Young Jimenez: Our maintenance staff we've lost a lot of staff at Venice it's just really hard to work there, and you can imagine being maintenance during this last year, this has been very tough trying for our staff.

213
00:21:46.350 --> 00:21:58.410
Sonya Young Jimenez: But I am working on hiring new people, so we recently just got seven approved i'm looking probably get another seven and then some full time staff so basically power washing is as needed when we need to get to the areas.

214
00:21:58.800 --> 00:22:07.800
Sonya Young Jimenez: I you have three or four guys that work, the whole peers doing all the restrooms all the trash every day so it's a lot for them i'm hoping with these new staff on board by the more.

215
00:22:08.910 --> 00:22:15.000
Sonya Young Jimenez: You know, steady schedule and we're working to do like you know we'll have the zones and what we're going to put them in team so to be a lot easier.

216
00:22:15.270 --> 00:22:22.950
Sonya Young Jimenez: I really appreciate the bid bit helps us a lot and the bit if I think an area needs power washing the bill come in and help us as well, so we work as a team.

217
00:22:23.310 --> 00:22:38.850
Sonya Young Jimenez: I work hand in hand with a bit almost every day so that's how we get it done as far as the Pier yes, the Pier we did work together with Washington bid and put that on as a co sponsored event, and we did it yeah this frank this last Thursday and it'll be the next 530 days on the Pier.

218
00:22:40.020 --> 00:22:41.190
Nick Antonicello: If you wanted to.

219
00:22:43.560 --> 00:22:48.720
Nick Antonicello: suggest that, like say, for example, I mean I personally feel that the peers and.

220
00:22:49.140 --> 00:22:49.770
I agree.

221
00:22:50.940 --> 00:23:06.300
Nick Antonicello: apple if if we wanted to have like say at the end of the Pier where they had the movie say got a DJ and he wanted to have like food trucks and have like a salsa night or some kind of dance night, how does one go about doing something like that.

222
00:23:06.900 --> 00:23:09.210
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah you're you're speaking my language, so I.

223
00:23:10.650 --> 00:23:15.450
Sonya Young Jimenez: I was there Thursday and i'm like why don't we do like great have else thinking a disco night and have bands and.

224
00:23:15.780 --> 00:23:16.200
Sonya Young Jimenez: It was.

225
00:23:16.380 --> 00:23:23.430
Sonya Young Jimenez: fun, it was nice to see the Community out and people were really excited to have the fear open like that so i'm all about it, I would not like to have a lot of trucks.

226
00:23:23.940 --> 00:23:33.570
Sonya Young Jimenez: And maybe some events where we have music and art, you can go through melodies not on the call today but melodies are senior director at the site she handles all permits and special events on the Pier.

227
00:23:33.960 --> 00:23:37.740
Sonya Young Jimenez: So if you do it independently, you can put out a if you want to collaborate with us.

228
00:23:38.100 --> 00:23:46.290
Sonya Young Jimenez: which saves you a lot of the permit fees kind of doing it together with record parks, then you don't have to pay all the fees and we can kind of do it as a team, maybe with the Venice you guys together or as a group.

229
00:23:46.890 --> 00:23:52.830
Sonya Young Jimenez: that's kind of how the Washington been did it and they paid for the movie you know licensing fee and then we'll be in everything.

230
00:23:53.760 --> 00:23:54.240
Nick Antonicello: Thank you.

231
00:23:54.750 --> 00:23:55.230
Sonya Young Jimenez: you're welcome.

232
00:23:57.270 --> 00:23:58.530
Brian Averill: I think Robin was not.

233
00:24:00.390 --> 00:24:08.970
Robin Rudisill: tanya two quick questions, one is, are you going to be having meetings like the ones Bob is to have for the ocean for walk stakeholders.

234
00:24:09.330 --> 00:24:14.370
Robin Rudisill: yeah second question is what kinds of beautification projects are you thinking of besides art.

235
00:24:15.270 --> 00:24:25.740
Sonya Young Jimenez: And perfect yes we're working on getting a park advisory board Committee which I brought on board had had some Members I don't think a lot of Members are coming back so we're looking to get new stakeholders on that board.

236
00:24:26.370 --> 00:24:34.830
Sonya Young Jimenez: melodies starting to work on that melody right now is only working by yourself, we were working to get another facility director and a coordinator so two more full time people to help melody.

237
00:24:35.430 --> 00:24:44.580
Sonya Young Jimenez: Hopefully, within the next couple months, so I haven't really tasked with doing all of it, yet she's handling there's so many permits at Venice you guys know we have movies, and special events so she's kind of overwhelmed.

238
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:46.980
Sonya Young Jimenez: But pretty soon we're going to start getting the.

239
00:24:47.130 --> 00:24:55.950
Sonya Young Jimenez: park advisory board together, which is a group of stakeholders and you guys, have a lot of different meetings on Venice i'm i'm in different business meetings every week, it would be nice they're like.

240
00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:02.550
Sonya Young Jimenez: I think a lot of you guys are on some of the same bored so I see a lot of similar faces and the other things, oh so.

241
00:25:03.180 --> 00:25:15.330
Sonya Young Jimenez: i'm working with the Council office to identify some of our areas that really need improvement, I feel like the paddle tennis you guys have seen the fencing around the Pal tennis area that's our number one right now actually very dangerous and just the weather there Venice.

242
00:25:16.050 --> 00:25:27.480
Sonya Young Jimenez: has destroyed the fencing over the years, also the calisthenics area muscle beach is almost done should be opening probably in a couple weeks we're just waiting for the final things to get placed in there and then.

243
00:25:28.590 --> 00:25:36.810
Sonya Young Jimenez: I know, on the agenda, we can talk about that next with the the grass beautification irrigation that's going to be happening soon and mural projects so we're working with.

244
00:25:38.520 --> 00:25:52.260
Sonya Young Jimenez: what's it called the Chamber and the arts district to maybe put some mural installations, but we want to have it, we want to have Community input and have Community also join in doing the murals so we're going to do some Community outreach about that as well.

245
00:25:53.490 --> 00:25:53.940
Sonya Young Jimenez: It is.

246
00:25:53.970 --> 00:26:00.360
Robin Rudisill: Related to that, is there a plan regarding what happens if tense and encampments come back to the area.

247
00:26:01.650 --> 00:26:06.180
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah Let me move working on it for months since we started, but if you guys know what we did, like a phased approach.

248
00:26:06.870 --> 00:26:14.550
Sonya Young Jimenez: To remove the camp's encampments and now, of course, you know people are trickling back, and I think there's always been a homeless contingent at Venice but.

249
00:26:14.850 --> 00:26:21.240
Sonya Young Jimenez: We are we did bring back our night operations and and if you guys know, but we have staff that go in from one to six in the morning.

250
00:26:22.020 --> 00:26:27.270
Sonya Young Jimenez: mainly from two to five because that's the hours you cannot be on the boardwalk so they come in and they.

251
00:26:28.020 --> 00:26:31.680
Sonya Young Jimenez: have been removing encampments on Fridays and Sundays, in the middle of the night.

252
00:26:32.130 --> 00:26:45.000
Sonya Young Jimenez: And then we have Friday cleanups and Monday keynotes so Those are our main times we put in service tickets, and then we work with our big crew sanitation with le police department to to go in and force that.

253
00:26:49.830 --> 00:26:50.970
Brian Averill: jason's got a hand up.

254
00:26:51.570 --> 00:27:00.870
Jason: yeah yeah I guess no questions are asked for the boardwalk meaning regimen are they cleaning actual boardwalk strip itself in front of the businesses and how often is not happening.

255
00:27:01.530 --> 00:27:13.140
Jason: And next the paddle tennis courts, who and forces in a regulates that it's open people start there at 630 in the morning they're running around with electric leaf blowers.

256
00:27:13.710 --> 00:27:22.530
Jason: it's a giant kind of unregulated show going on yelling and stop early in the morning, seven days a week couple hours before they're supposed to.

257
00:27:23.280 --> 00:27:24.930
jim robb: Jason lives across from him.

258
00:27:26.250 --> 00:27:28.560
jim robb: he's kind of a lot he's got a lot of stuff going on.

259
00:27:28.590 --> 00:27:29.760
jim robb: By him so.

260
00:27:30.030 --> 00:27:36.060
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah I hear ya I like I said we're short staffed and I know that's not an excuse, but we don't have enough people to be monitoring it.

261
00:27:36.420 --> 00:27:43.770
Sonya Young Jimenez: I only have some staff morning we are looking when we get more of our full time staff to have someone at the muscle beach office, which is the Office like a muscle beach.

262
00:27:44.100 --> 00:27:52.110
Sonya Young Jimenez: More regulating that more and i'm going to check, we also have issues where people are charging fees and they should ask for private lessons that kind of thing so.

263
00:27:52.890 --> 00:27:59.310
Sonya Young Jimenez: You know, hopefully, the next couple months when we get our full time staff on board, we can monitor as far as the boardwalk it's kind of like we.

264
00:27:59.910 --> 00:28:05.370
Sonya Young Jimenez: Our main concern is trash all day that that takes most of the day to go all the way down the boardwalk with the amount of staff, I have.

265
00:28:05.670 --> 00:28:13.830
Sonya Young Jimenez: And then we kind of spot clean areas that we need to clean when I get more staff on board, then they'll be assigned zones and i'm hoping that the zones will be you know if they if they're in zone.

266
00:28:14.760 --> 00:28:27.180
Sonya Young Jimenez: The peers down it'll be all the way from the you know till we get to the stand and the boardwalk that'll be their zone area so i'm hoping to get like groups of two or three will have their zone, every day, and then I can hold them accountable for for cleaning their areas.

267
00:28:28.140 --> 00:28:45.210
Jason: A carpenter souza who is responsible for enforcing all the fact that there's like hot dog carts and corn cards and postcards and it's turned into kind of like a greasy boardwalk retail Vending yeah.

268
00:28:45.270 --> 00:28:55.140
jim robb: And we got we got a guy that set of bbq next to the the hamburger place and dumped his charcoal out, he was he was selling hamburgers right next to the hamburger joint so.

269
00:28:55.680 --> 00:28:56.820
jim robb: Good question Jason.

270
00:28:57.240 --> 00:29:07.680
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah so in all enforcement and lapd we don't have any enforcement rights, I haven't worked with monique and you know we've been talking about a lot of different issues scooters the Vending spaces.

271
00:29:08.610 --> 00:29:15.900
Sonya Young Jimenez: So those have been ongoing conversations is really lapd I can't do anything even right now, a lot of those are a citations which doesn't mean anything anybody.

272
00:29:16.800 --> 00:29:27.870
Sonya Young Jimenez: is really sad people just get them and they kind of know that they're going to get that only we are working with monique with miss contrary to our senior lead officer to do a public health kind of enforcement to have them come in and remove them.

273
00:29:29.010 --> 00:29:38.550
Sonya Young Jimenez: More often but that's when people kind of stopped coming when they take all their items away it's kind of sad but people you know could be on the the walk streets with permits, but not on the boardwalk so.

274
00:29:39.720 --> 00:29:51.210
Jason: Far doesn't justify the profit they're making the guy selling fruit will make four or $500 a day selling fruit and cash make a few thousand dollars a month pay $500 fine that's essentially right right.

275
00:29:51.540 --> 00:30:00.210
Jason: And so we're not motivated right and so it's like we want to bring back Venice to bring the tourist back, but it's kind of turning.

276
00:30:00.510 --> 00:30:06.180
Jason: To there's no more artists performing with the lottery system it's kind of just like this really hawker ish.

277
00:30:06.780 --> 00:30:22.020
Jason: feeling going on and I guess the bring people back we'd have to bring back the public relations and Venice, which is art and music and the things to wipe away that stain that everyone remembers and kotel concierge is on the travel agents are the ones that are are driving all that.

278
00:30:23.280 --> 00:30:34.200
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah I agree, I think you know reaching out to your Council office or the police Department on the enforcement his aspects when i'm working with them on my side too, but I can only you know i'm working together.

279
00:30:34.800 --> 00:30:35.130
well.

280
00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:48.240
jim robb: we'll try we'll try to we're going to try to do something on the scoop Sonia were to try to do something with the scooters next month I gotta reach out to all the the authorized vendors because it's the end of the pilot programs so they're supposed to update.

281

Sean obrien: Yes, hi Thank you so much, and I appreciate new leadership with the.

303
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:36.270
Sean obrien: For the Venice parks and recs department, you have a monumental task ahead of you have.

304
00:32:38.340 --> 00:32:50.970
Sean obrien: i'm like semi like new to this with the boardwalk parks and recs and whatnot all but my my feeling is ECHO park was such a phenomenal success.

305
00:32:51.390 --> 00:33:02.910
Sean obrien: But meanwhile parks and REC and then is is either being depleted funds that all and if we're not able to follow through and I just wonder.

306
00:33:03.330 --> 00:33:23.490
Sean obrien: You know what's going to happen in the future, now that summer's over and we got a lagging like in the tourists and we'll have parks and REC and they will like blame it on due to lack of funding, because that's what i've heard in the past couple of weeks um and then.

307
00:33:24.600 --> 00:33:30.660
Sean obrien: And then allow these encampments to continue to proliferate and and make.

308
00:33:30.690 --> 00:33:32.280
Sean obrien: and make it worse for the.

309
00:33:33.240 --> 00:33:45.030
Sean obrien: The locals the businesses, etc, and I sure hope that you're way better than the guy that preceded you, but I would love to hear your answers for that, but I do thank you.

310
00:33:46.080 --> 00:33:46.620
Brian Averill: Thanks john.

311
00:33:47.940 --> 00:33:56.250
Sonya Young Jimenez: Thank you Sean I feel your concern and we have been addressing it like I said we we went back to do an evening, even though a lot of the agencies or.

312
00:33:56.670 --> 00:34:04.980
Sonya Young Jimenez: You know we're pulling resources from all over the city and everyone's kind of short right now and staff so we're pulling from sanitation from lapd for making products from our Rangers.

313
00:34:05.460 --> 00:34:15.960
Sonya Young Jimenez: To make sure that Venice does not go back and I think we'd be you know I think Venice has always had a homeless people in Venice and we just don't want it to get back to it even close to what it was before.

314
00:34:16.710 --> 00:34:22.500
Sonya Young Jimenez: But yeah we're going to be on top of it, we have you know we have three allocated our staffing, to make sure that they're there at.

315
00:34:22.890 --> 00:34:31.950
Sonya Young Jimenez: Two in the morning till five in the morning, that they're addressing and getting these encampments off of the beach we're going to do that for several more weeks to see how it goes, and we are doing the cleanups.

316
00:34:34.230 --> 00:34:34.590
Sonya Young Jimenez: They were.

317
00:34:37.980 --> 00:34:53.940
Sean obrien: selected, we only had her losses count 167 homeless so everybody always uses all Venice is always had homeless, yes, we have for they've always been manageable they've always been small numbers and and.

318
00:34:54.240 --> 00:35:11.100
Sean obrien: The homeless, that we had we're we're we're not drug addicted fenton all methods that are now, you know that are now like like re wreaking havoc on not only the tourists, but the the.

319
00:35:11.580 --> 00:35:14.400
Sean obrien: The neighbors the people who live here the residents.

320
00:35:14.850 --> 00:35:27.180
Sean obrien: And the crime rate is sword because of that so it's a whole new animal now and it's a whole new ball game and I always hate to hear that Venice has always had a homeless population.

321
00:35:27.540 --> 00:35:40.290
Sean obrien: Then, has had a homeless population of 167 people per losses count and night and 2013 so please don't use that as an excuse, but I do.

322
00:35:43.260 --> 00:35:46.830
Brian Averill: want to keep moving on we have one more public comment that's from a carrie.

323
00:35:48.450 --> 00:35:49.680
Brian Averill: carrie I hope I got the right.

324
00:35:50.310 --> 00:35:50.820
There you go.

325
00:35:52.380 --> 00:35:54.300
cari devine bjelajac: hey Brian Sonia how are you.

326
00:35:54.450 --> 00:35:55.260
Sonya Young Jimenez: i'm good I carry.

327
00:35:55.590 --> 00:36:01.530
cari devine bjelajac: um I wanted to let you know that, this morning I was walking by a rather large.

328
00:36:02.880 --> 00:36:17.220
cari devine bjelajac: 10th list and encampment in the park avenue pagodas and all of the reckon parks trucks were lined up there, there was a full on and cabinet with two beds, including headboards and other furnishings.

329
00:36:17.700 --> 00:36:28.260
cari devine bjelajac: And two o'clock this afternoon, I actually met with department of mental health, to take them on a tour of the boardwalk and that encampment was still there, fully furnished.

330
00:36:29.250 --> 00:36:38.760
cari devine bjelajac: With those beds and all of the bulky items were still there, is there a reason why that wasn't taking care of this morning, while you were out.

331
00:36:40.020 --> 00:36:50.610
Sonya Young Jimenez: So I don't know if it was posted as long, I mean, I think you know carry if anybody knows that we have to post before we take them out, they are working on a new protocol, which hopefully will do zone approaches.

332
00:36:51.180 --> 00:36:55.890
Sonya Young Jimenez: But reckon park still has the posting so if it wasn't posted prior to them in there, they couldn't have removed that in Canada.

333
00:36:56.310 --> 00:37:05.970
cari devine bjelajac: I yeah I just wondered when that new protocol is going to go into effect, and when those signs will be posted because it's been several weeks that we've been hearing that and still the same.

334
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:07.950
cari devine bjelajac: issue.

335
00:37:08.370 --> 00:37:18.720
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah I hear ya um it's in the attorneys hands, so when the attorneys are done with it then they'll, let us have it, we did post today for that encampment already so the next cleanup is Friday.

336
00:37:19.500 --> 00:37:20.760
cari devine bjelajac: Alright, thanks so much Sonia.

337
00:37:21.660 --> 00:37:26.850
jim robb: Thank you, sorry I know well, real quick and then, I guess, we could move on carrie can you drop your hand, please.

338
00:37:28.050 --> 00:37:28.740
Noel Johnston: Can you hear me.

339
00:37:29.490 --> 00:37:33.360
Noel Johnston: yeah i'm Sonia got a quick question about the.

340
00:37:34.770 --> 00:37:49.170
Noel Johnston: area between the bike path and the boardwalk is basically stretches in one way or another, from navy, all the way down to Washington square do you have specific plans for this area, and what are they.

341
00:37:50.100 --> 00:37:52.020
Sonya Young Jimenez: mean on the grassy knolls or.

342
00:37:52.350 --> 00:37:56.250
Noel Johnston: Well, no, not just the grassy knolls because the the.

343
00:37:56.880 --> 00:38:11.820
Noel Johnston: reckon Park Area is a small strip that runs between the bike path and they boardwalk pretty much from navy, all the way down to Washington Square and it isn't always a grassy knoll.

344
00:38:12.210 --> 00:38:26.070
Noel Johnston: In some areas it's it's grass in some areas it's just saying that the very North end where my houses it's just saying there is no grass there, but there is a sprinkler system under it and.

345
00:38:27.630 --> 00:38:32.550
Noel Johnston: I know I know more about it at the north end that I do anywhere else but i'm also aware of the fact that.

346
00:38:33.240 --> 00:38:45.300
Noel Johnston: grass seems appropriate in some areas, and really not appropriate and others so i'm just curious as to what your plans are for that entire area stretching from the North to the South.

347
00:38:46.320 --> 00:38:49.920
Sonya Young Jimenez: I think that the item on the agenda to me they're just said now, or do you want me to.

348
00:38:50.160 --> 00:39:02.940
Noel Johnston: I think that I don't think that necessarily talking about the motion i'm curious about your plans for this area, as they exist right now.

349
00:39:04.080 --> 00:39:11.970
Sonya Young Jimenez: Okay, so as of right now we've had some contractors come out we're working on, we just repaired all the main lines, we had a lot of main lines that were broken.

350
00:39:12.300 --> 00:39:18.660
Sonya Young Jimenez: Along the boardwalk due to the encampments and all the people that were on the boardwalk so those have been repaired we're working on repairing all the sprinklers.

351
00:39:19.530 --> 00:39:26.760
Sonya Young Jimenez: Right now and then we're working with the contractor to resolve, we were looking, we are still looking at, but I want to get them.

352
00:39:27.930 --> 00:39:30.900
Sonya Young Jimenez: architect out to get some ideas on some different types of.

353
00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:45.570
Sonya Young Jimenez: Either landscaping or materials or rocks or I don't know so ideas and what we can do along that path, but you're right it doesn't all have to be solid, it can be different items, and I also want to get Community influx I know, in the past.

354
00:39:46.860 --> 00:39:51.780
Sonya Young Jimenez: Community ways and heavily and then maybe sometimes projects don't get done so i'd love to you know have.

355
00:39:52.530 --> 00:40:01.170
Sonya Young Jimenez: Some ideas, but I am working with some i'm going to start looking into with through our foundation some landscape architects who could come up with some drawings along the boardwalk.

356
00:40:01.500 --> 00:40:11.730
Sonya Young Jimenez: In the meantime we're just looking to restart it and just get the grass back on there for now and then lower the berms a little bit because they're growing really high and some areas as well, so we'll be taking out some sand.

357
00:40:14.130 --> 00:40:14.580
Noel Johnston: Thank you.

358
00:40:15.330 --> 00:40:15.750

jim robb: shawnee there Ellen.

436

Helen Fallon: I just would like to suggest that you send it also to the Commissioners that parks and REC.

437
00:49:22.380 --> 00:49:24.270
Helen Fallon: You know, send it to the top, why not.

438
00:49:25.890 --> 00:49:28.590

439
00:49:31.080 --> 00:49:32.250

440
00:49:40.080 --> 00:49:40.650
jim robb: know well.

441
00:49:41.310 --> 00:49:53.550
Noel Johnston: um I think this motor is a little bag, I like to know i'd like the definition of grass here is um I would, I think that.

442
00:49:55.110 --> 00:50:07.140
Noel Johnston: Is Sonia has previously said that they intend on receiving them and taking some side out and prove putting the other side in but I.

443
00:50:07.710 --> 00:50:18.900
Noel Johnston: I think that the entire grassy area from the north end to the south and needs to be rethought, there are some areas that are appropriate to grass, but there are many that aren't and it's.

444
00:50:19.590 --> 00:50:33.870
Noel Johnston: I think it's naive and perhaps not forward thinking to imagine that we can continue to irrigate grass along this entire expanse in the future.

445
00:50:36.120 --> 00:50:36.960
Noel Johnston: My comment.

446
00:50:37.410 --> 00:50:38.070

464
00:52:24.180 --> 00:52:28.860
Sean obrien: yeah I wholeheartedly like like they support this motion.

465
00:52:30.150 --> 00:52:51.120
Sean obrien: I have several several of memories of all the grassy areas that are now defunct and our sand because of problems that existed in the past two years, as So please, please.

466
00:52:52.500 --> 00:52:54.360
Sean obrien: Do this I thank you.

467
00:52:55.440 --> 00:52:55.980
jim robb: Thank you.

468
00:52:57.810 --> 00:52:59.250
jim robb: That is it for public comment.

469
00:53:02.760 --> 00:53:03.600
Nick Antonicello: for discussing.

470
00:53:04.110 --> 00:53:05.610
jim robb: or discussion, please.

471
00:53:09.000 --> 00:53:17.370
Nick Antonicello: Well, all to say is that this is the very reason why I got involved with that is neighborhood Council 10 years ago 11 years ago.

472
00:53:18.150 --> 00:53:28.650
Nick Antonicello: Because of the condition of the grassy knolls and one of the problems, back then, and we have this this committee has passed similar most instruments in the past.

473
00:53:29.610 --> 00:53:40.890
Nick Antonicello: Where who is actually responsible for the grassy knoll the city or the county and my understanding is is that the city is responsible for the maintenance of the grassy knoll.

474
00:53:42.480 --> 00:54:01.380
Nick Antonicello: I agree with Noel in that some parts definitely you know, putting the grass starting it up and getting it straightened out as a good idea, but some of it may need more sophisticated landscaping just to make sure that the divide is obvious and i'm sure you know.

475
00:54:02.490 --> 00:54:10.740
Nick Antonicello: When the city decides to take a look at Adrian a landscape architect he'll probably make the same recommendations to the city so.

476
00:54:12.720 --> 00:54:25.470
Nick Antonicello: This is emotion that has been passed in the past, and unfortunately we went through this whole thing with the homeless situation so i'm urging the rest of the board to to approve it thanks.

477
00:54:27.180 --> 00:54:28.650
jim robb: Thank you, Robin.

478
00:54:29.550 --> 00:54:38.910
Robin Rudisill: How long the lines that mall mail just spoke about a minute ago I just heard from Sean that some grassy areas, formerly grassy areas have become sandy.

479
00:54:39.420 --> 00:54:49.980
Robin Rudisill: And so i'm a little bit confused about how the grassy areas are going to be defined exactly which areas are we talking about adding grass side, etc.

480
00:54:55.050 --> 00:54:57.630
jim robb: So had a question for anybody, or what.

481
00:54:58.830 --> 00:55:02.130
Robin Rudisill: Is the question, maybe saga has the answer I don't know.

482
00:55:03.720 --> 00:55:12.180
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah so I went through with my maintenance and construction team to see where we kind of irrigation before where there was saying before we identify those areas already.

483
00:55:13.230 --> 00:55:20.370
Sonya Young Jimenez: So majority of it, I mean there are some areas we think there are a lot of areas I really think we could do a whole different landscaping design, but that would take.

484
00:55:21.570 --> 00:55:30.150
Sonya Young Jimenez: it's a different process and they'll take a lot longer so for right now I think phase one is do the siding and phase two is to get an architect, and to see what different elements, you can use.

485
00:55:30.480 --> 00:55:39.600
Sonya Young Jimenez: Different natural what are they called now all native yeah some native plants and some something that wouldn't require as much irrigation but.

486
00:55:40.080 --> 00:55:49.110
Sonya Young Jimenez: I think it has to be a phased approach we can't if we wait to do the other one that nothing's gonna happen so i'd rather we at least beautified for now and then start thinking of what the long term plan is going to be for the boardwalk.

487
00:55:49.470 --> 00:55:53.100
Robin Rudisill: So essentially we're supporting your phase one project.

488
00:55:53.760 --> 00:55:54.390
Correct.

489
00:55:55.620 --> 00:55:56.400
Sonya Young Jimenez: sounds like it yeah.

490
00:55:58.500 --> 00:56:05.940
Sean obrien: So let's spend a million dollars on an architect, but let's plant cactus I don't know come on guys.

491
00:56:07.980 --> 00:56:13.020
Sonya Young Jimenez: I didn't say cactus but I guess, whatever the architect says i'm not planning on spending a million dollars in marketing.

492
00:56:17.730 --> 00:56:19.410
Nick Antonicello: Know like to speak to.

493
00:56:22.980 --> 00:56:25.200
Noel Johnston: Have Nick can everybody hear me.

494
00:56:26.520 --> 00:56:37.770
Noel Johnston: Okay um I just want to say that I don't think that Sony has any plans on hiring a million dollar architect, and we have many architects in our Venice neighborhood.

495
00:56:38.160 --> 00:56:45.180
Noel Johnston: That have interesting landscaping plans for this, we also have many landscapers that have interesting ideas about this.

496
00:56:45.600 --> 00:56:55.980
Noel Johnston: There are many people that have have voiced interest in this over the years I have been talking to one element or another, for over 12 years about this, and there are.

497
00:56:56.310 --> 00:57:13.560
Noel Johnston: Many people that have interesting ideas about this, mostly forward thinking people that are concerned about the water issues in the future, many people are encouraging about using native plantings which I think are still possible.

498
00:57:14.580 --> 00:57:27.690
Noel Johnston: people that have interesting ideas about succulents that are not just the usual cactus like things that are going in all over Venice, which you know I think kind of deploy our mobile because they don't.

499
00:57:28.860 --> 00:57:33.180
Noel Johnston: Support the local fauna at at all.

500
00:57:34.350 --> 00:57:45.240
Noel Johnston: There are lots of people that have imaginative ideas about this and Sonia seems to be very open to this and willing to meet with with all groups individuals and firms.

501
00:57:48.360 --> 00:58:01.560
Sean obrien: This was an has been the second largest tourist destination in southern California only second to Disneyland and you guys want to like.

502
00:58:02.190 --> 00:58:16.830
Sean obrien: pennies and like blame the drought those so what now all of a sudden disneyland's get it like like change all their like riverboat and all their like actions, because of the drought know so so.

503
00:58:17.370 --> 00:58:40.950
Sean obrien: You know, we don't need to spend a million dollars in a might not be not as it might be $100,000 it might be $200,000 it doesn't matter, the amount, but we don't need specialist to come in and say this is what we want to do, we can do this as a Venice neighborhood Council and this board.

504
00:58:41.130 --> 00:58:41.970
Sean obrien: is more.

505
00:58:42.240 --> 00:58:43.500
Sean obrien: More than capable.

01:03:31.560 --> 01:03:42.240
Helen Fallon: I just wanted some clarification is this, in addition to what Sonia mentioned was going to be going your the.

566
01:03:43.290 --> 01:03:51.630
Helen Fallon: weight lifting and there was some kind of station that she was talking about getting somebody established there so would this be in addition to that.

567
01:03:52.080 --> 01:03:52.920
jim robb: This is different.

568
01:03:54.870 --> 01:03:55.200
jim robb: Right.

569
01:03:55.530 --> 01:03:58.740
Helen Fallon: Good it's a whole day that's not a park ranger that would be there, then.

570
01:03:59.100 --> 01:04:03.330
Helen Fallon: Right Brian, and this would be at Westminster so we're.

571
01:04:04.290 --> 01:04:05.850
jim robb: gonna let Brian explain it to you.

572
01:04:05.940 --> 01:04:07.650

jim robb: Go ahead.

575
01:04:16.590 --> 01:04:35.100
jim robb: Yes, yeah there's just this kayla weeks of meetings with us rally this the beach and Roma is the park, this is something that me and a few other people so there's a budget for park Rangers there's obviously a need for park Rangers.

576
01:04:37.020 --> 01:04:42.330
jim robb: turns a substation already available Westminster is a no brainer.

577
01:04:43.530 --> 01:04:44.220
jim robb: For the last year.

578
01:04:50.730 --> 01:04:51.270
jim robb: Thank you.

579
01:04:52.980 --> 01:04:53.580
jim robb: All right.

580
01:04:55.170 --> 01:04:55.740
jim robb: carrie.

581
01:04:57.330 --> 01:05:09.360
cari devine bjelajac: hey, I would like to thank Brian Brian for making this motion and putting it on the agenda, after 21 weeks of meetings with everybody involved in the encampment to home project.

582
01:05:10.620 --> 01:05:20.970
cari devine bjelajac: One of the key elements that we realized was, for example, Griffith park has had over 10 park Rangers in their park.

583
01:05:21.360 --> 01:05:36.600
cari devine bjelajac: We have zero park Rangers station, for our part, we are much, much larger in terms of our attendance and visitor base, and so I cannot urge you to vote yes on this with more vigor so thank you.

584
01:05:37.050 --> 01:05:44.040
jim robb: Thank you carrie drop your hand, please Sean go ahead, that has to do with the park Rangers.

585
01:05:49.350 --> 01:05:54.300
Sean obrien: I yeah I appreciate this yes, yes, yes please, please.

586
01:05:56.550 --> 01:06:00.270
jim robb: Take a shot drop your hand, please okay.

587
01:06:03.540 --> 01:06:04.950
jim robb: Robin go ahead.

588
01:06:09.420 --> 01:06:14.280
Robin Rudisill: go first to exhaust the general public and then go to us.

589
01:06:16.920 --> 01:06:22.230
jim robb: She could, if she could, if she could get on and speak I see her as an attendee but.

590
01:06:23.610 --> 01:06:26.730
jim robb: I have not able to give her a microphone.

591
01:06:30.510 --> 01:06:31.470
Robin Rudisill: Okay well.

592
01:06:32.940 --> 01:06:42.720
Robin Rudisill: My question is, and maybe I missed something, but I was listening pretty carefully why hasn't been as had this presence automatically, and this is.

593
01:06:43.020 --> 01:06:54.480
Robin Rudisill: Part of you know, the normal allocation of Rangers to all the cities parts there's some reason, did we used to have presence in it and it went away or you know what's.

594
01:06:56.190 --> 01:06:57.060
Robin Rudisill: Why haven't we had it.

595
01:06:58.470 --> 01:06:59.040
jim robb: Okay.

596
01:07:01.620 --> 01:07:02.580
jim robb: I have no idea.

597
01:07:03.870 --> 01:07:07.950
Nick Antonicello: i've invested 30 years i've never seen a park ranger Venice beach ever.

598
01:07:09.750 --> 01:07:10.590
Nick Antonicello: So I you know.

599
01:07:10.800 --> 01:07:13.860
jim robb: So yeah what you got any input on this.

600
01:07:14.190 --> 01:07:22.590
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah right now we only have 26 park Rangers for the whole city that's for over 400 facilities to get a park ranger they have to go through the police academy the.

601
01:07:23.580 --> 01:07:30.390
Sonya Young Jimenez: academy the Sheriff Academy, so it does take over about two years to get them through the process so it's a long process.

602
01:07:30.720 --> 01:07:39.420
Sonya Young Jimenez: Chief world it was a rally is aware that we want one at Venice and he's looking for his next round to get one Alex at least we did.

603
01:07:40.170 --> 01:07:42.630
Sonya Young Jimenez: I think, someone mentioned, I think, Brian that the substation.

604
01:07:42.990 --> 01:07:52.590
Sonya Young Jimenez: was kind of set up at westminister and then we just didn't have enough just to have one dedicated there I don't think there's been one dedicated but they had been there, especially these last four months pretty much weekly and Venice.

605
01:07:54.240 --> 01:07:55.170
jim robb: Thank you, Sonia.

606
01:07:56.280 --> 01:07:57.270
jim robb: All right, no well.

607
01:07:57.690 --> 01:08:06.000
Noel Johnston: um I i've been involved a little bit and trying to get a ranger in the past, and one of the things.

608
01:08:06.660 --> 01:08:13.200
Noel Johnston: And i'm underlining what Sonia already said was that they have very few of these park Rangers in the city.

609
01:08:13.530 --> 01:08:22.470
Noel Johnston: And they they lose the middle fairly great way because apparently their their training makes them eligible for jobs that are that pay more.

610
01:08:22.770 --> 01:08:36.540
Noel Johnston: And are in better circumstances so they don't stay around very long so it's it's a position that is pretty hard to film and there are a lot of people that want to do it so.

611
01:08:37.920 --> 01:08:40.500
Noel Johnston: that's that's a little bit of information that I have.

612
01:08:41.400 --> 01:08:50.730
Sonya Young Jimenez: Now that's a great point, since they go through the Academy, they do get they do qualify to go into police or sheriff's and a lot of them do move over, and it is more pace so you're right.

613
01:08:51.780 --> 01:08:52.170
Noel Johnston: Thanks.

614
01:08:53.370 --> 01:08:53.880
jim robb: Robin.

615
01:08:54.990 --> 01:08:55.470
Noel Johnston: Do.

616
01:08:58.860 --> 01:08:59.250
jim robb: You.

617
01:08:59.460 --> 01:09:09.360
Robin Rudisill: I have a question for Brian who wrote the motion, when you say regularly scheduled park ranger presence, does that mean just one.

618
01:09:10.740 --> 01:09:11.670
Robin Rudisill: or or more.

619
01:09:14.400 --> 01:09:20.880
jim robb: and forwarded to an automatic well brian's can't be on the call right now and kids speak so we'll have to ask him that question later.

620
01:09:22.710 --> 01:09:25.020
jim robb: There he is right.

621
01:09:26.580 --> 01:09:29.580
jim robb: Joe sorry this was ridiculous I know it is hot.

622
01:09:31.830 --> 01:09:34.860
jim robb: And the idea was just to have to Rangers on very.

623
01:09:36.090 --> 01:09:43.470
jim robb: Interesting visual presence on the boardwalk and just have some sort of establish base or substation.

624
01:09:45.930 --> 01:09:46.200
jim robb: Because.

625
01:09:47.640 --> 01:09:48.720
jim robb: I think it deserves it.

626
01:09:51.060 --> 01:09:51.420
Robin Rudisill: So.

627
01:09:52.260 --> 01:09:52.920
jim robb: to your question.

628
01:09:53.310 --> 01:10:01.710
Robin Rudisill: I think so, so when we're talking about too Is that correct is that your understanding, as well as what's to be sent to us.

629
01:10:03.000 --> 01:10:04.620
Sonya Young Jimenez: I think we'll be lucky if we get one.

630
01:10:05.820 --> 01:10:13.320
Sonya Young Jimenez: I mean, I think the next round, I mean if we got one i'd be amazing I mean to would be good, so they can have two shifts you know, whatever the ship's maybe.

631
01:10:13.770 --> 01:10:28.710
Sonya Young Jimenez: It really depends on how many go through academy and so they've had like maybe 15 go through Academy, maybe four paths, I mean they have to go it's really rigorous, you can get failed the last week, if you don't finish the last exam so it just depends on how many past the Academy.

632
01:10:29.820 --> 01:10:35.580
Robin Rudisill: All right, then, I have a motion to amend this motion to say that.

633
01:10:36.780 --> 01:10:39.870
Robin Rudisill: The dnc formally request that a permanent regularly scheduled.

634
01:10:41.400 --> 01:10:47.130
Robin Rudisill: park ranger Presidents have to Rangers be initiated so that are requested specifically to.

635
01:10:48.300 --> 01:10:51.180
Robin Rudisill: In at least in our request that's fine.

636
01:10:52.350 --> 01:10:52.950
jim robb: Okay.

637
01:10:53.550 --> 01:11:01.590
Nick Antonicello: To be a friendly amendment and just added to the motion for to there's no need for, and then you can just pull 72.

638
01:11:04.680 --> 01:11:05.190
jim robb: Okay.

639
01:11:08.820 --> 01:11:09.510
jim robb: So stated.

640
01:11:10.590 --> 01:11:11.520
jim robb: About a call about.

641
01:11:13.020 --> 01:11:15.570
jim robb: Judy you have a quick comment go ahead quickly.

642
01:11:17.340 --> 01:11:27.510
Judy Goldman: Yes, um so several months back a group of us met with the Commissioners recreation and parks Commissioners.

643
01:11:27.960 --> 01:11:36.420
Judy Goldman: And they told us that to park Rangers would be on the way to Venice that they had recently, or that they would be graduating.

644
01:11:37.200 --> 01:11:48.630
Judy Goldman: in the very near future, so I don't understand why that hasn't happened, or why we even have to ask for it, and I believe that there was an issue that was being voted on.

645
01:11:49.110 --> 01:11:58.350
Judy Goldman: And there was some concern about whether they would be armed or not I don't know what happened to that issue, I certainly would be.

646
01:11:59.370 --> 01:12:14.670
Judy Goldman: I guess, there was some question about whether the Rangers wanted to come to Venice with out being armed I don't think they're armed anywhere else, so I don't know why they would be armed here, but we were promised by the Commissioners to park Rangers.

647
01:12:17.010 --> 01:12:17.730
jim robb: Thank you.

648
01:12:19.050 --> 01:12:19.590
jim robb: All right.

649
01:12:20.850 --> 01:12:22.410
jim robb: Public comment was.

650
01:12:23.610 --> 01:12:23.790
Judy Goldman: well.

651
01:12:24.480 --> 01:12:26.580
jim robb: i'll give you one quick minute go ahead.

652
01:12:28.230 --> 01:12:29.580
jim robb: What are you Lisa.

653
01:12:33.570 --> 01:12:34.500
jim robb: Lisa redman.

654
01:12:37.980 --> 01:12:41.670
Lisa Redmond: Oh unmute me okay i'll be quicker than a minute.

655
01:12:43.050 --> 01:12:51.720
Lisa Redmond: The whole i'll let it slide this time, but the whole friendly amendment thing people don't quite understand what it is and a friendly amendment still has to be handled.

656
01:12:52.200 --> 01:13:07.320
Lisa Redmond: The way any amendment does it has to go through the entire assembly, it must be full consent to the amendment by majority vote through unanimous consent open to public comment again, so I just we're all slipping into that and I just wanted to point that out that's all right.

657
01:13:07.530 --> 01:13:07.890
i'm just.

658
01:13:09.180 --> 01:13:09.660

685
01:15:14.760 --> 01:15:32.700
Judy Goldman: Okay i've been emailing back and forth with Jason Douglas and with people in many different departments in the city of Los Angeles, even before coven was even before we the lockdown started starting about a year and a half ago.

686
01:15:33.030 --> 01:15:35.370
Sean obrien: We all get their bill last month.

687
01:15:35.940 --> 01:15:36.990
Judy Goldman: Excuse me, will.

688
01:15:37.260 --> 01:15:38.010
jim robb: You, please.

689
01:15:38.730 --> 01:15:49.920
Judy Goldman: We noticed that there was markings on all the walk streets numbers and I reached out to the city to find out what they were because it looked like there was some kind of infrastructure.

690
01:15:50.340 --> 01:15:55.860
Judy Goldman: of work that was going to be happening on all the walk streets and then the work started on paloma.

691
01:15:56.310 --> 01:16:02.160
Judy Goldman: And the whole street was torn up and as Brian pointed out, it was the water, the historic walk street.

692
01:16:02.670 --> 01:16:11.580
Judy Goldman: was replaced with something that was inappropriate with with asphalt, and I have an email here from Jason Douglas.

693
01:16:12.030 --> 01:16:18.180
Judy Goldman: who informed me that the building and safety inspector was there that they were checking on it.

694
01:16:18.540 --> 01:16:30.030
Judy Goldman: And that the work he is claiming was emergency work he doesn't know why the rest of our streets have numbers he's going to try to find out if there's infrastructure work plan.

695
01:16:30.570 --> 01:16:37.320
Judy Goldman: But in the meantime, he said that there he's asked the city to expedite paving of paloma.

696
01:16:38.070 --> 01:16:43.590
Judy Goldman: And he's claiming that what's there is temporary asphalt and is going to be removed.

697
01:16:43.980 --> 01:17:00.600
Judy Goldman: And he also said that he doesn't know of any other emergency work on any other walk streets but they're still investigating these markings and i'm still working with them to find out what this mystery was because i'm concerned that there is some kind of utility.

698
01:17:01.950 --> 01:17:10.320
Judy Goldman: Infrastructure that's going to happen on the rest of our walk streets, and I think there there's also when I got a notice from the city.

699
01:17:10.650 --> 01:17:28.740
Judy Goldman: They plan to do some kind of infrastructure on adjacent to ocean front walk there's going to be a closure, I understand, of speedway to do some of this work, so I think it'd be important for us to look into it more in love with Jason and make sure that it happens.

700
01:17:30.720 --> 01:17:32.040
jim robb: Thank you all right.

01:18:01.020 --> 01:18:04.800
jim robb: On get on this is about walk streets being repaved.

709
01:18:06.300 --> 01:18:15.990
Sean obrien: Oh yes, absolutely walk speech needs to repaved they've been disregarded for years So yes, I support you guys, thank you.

710
01:18:16.380 --> 01:18:20.520
jim robb: Thank you grace lower your hand Judy lower your hand Helen you're on.

711
01:18:21.990 --> 01:18:39.840
Helen Fallon: Now, I just have a suggestion So yes, might help everybody hear that when you're doing a motion once it's been seconded take clarifying questions from your committee members, you know, like Robin had a question about the motion that's more helpful for us in the audience, because you might.

712
01:18:39.840 --> 01:18:43.710
Helen Fallon: have actually covered, you know answered, something we were going to ask so.

713
01:18:44.160 --> 01:18:57.960
Helen Fallon: And then you take the board discussion afterwards, you know, so you can just ask if anybody's got questions about emotions clarify then move on to the public comments just as it's an easier format other words do it and it works, it really works much more.

714
01:19:00.810 --> 01:19:01.320
Robin Rudisill: like that.

715
01:19:04.140 --> 01:19:11.700
jim robb: Okay Oh, the public comments are out should we take a vote on this well.

716
01:19:11.790 --> 01:19:12.750
jim robb: Robin go ahead.

717
01:19:13.500 --> 01:19:17.100
Robin Rudisill: um my question is I just don't think the motion is.

718
01:19:17.100 --> 01:19:19.680
Robin Rudisill: Clear for one I don't know what it.

719
01:19:19.680 --> 01:19:20.520
jim robb: means to review.

720
01:19:22.410 --> 01:19:32.280
Robin Rudisill: I don't know what it means that these walks us are not remotely a da compliant were they another not anymore, or what I don't understand what the problem is there.

721
01:19:32.760 --> 01:19:43.680
Robin Rudisill: I don't understand, I mean it's not clear that they're using asphalt, as opposed to the existing material used on his boardwalk streets and still there, possibly damaging.

722
01:19:44.100 --> 01:19:55.590
Robin Rudisill: These historic resources and then also I am not clear on what a reasonable temporary solution means, what are we solving with and what temporary solution is it.

723
01:19:56.070 --> 01:20:05.520
Robin Rudisill: I am uncomfortable voting on this, as it is, I think it's there's several places where it's just not clear and i'd like to support the general concept that we have to clear this up.

724
01:20:06.960 --> 01:20:09.660
Robin Rudisill: Maybe maybe Brian can do that, since he originally wrote it.

725
01:20:13.020 --> 01:20:13.650
jim robb: Can you guys hear me.

726
01:20:14.610 --> 01:20:14.790
yeah.

727
01:20:16.290 --> 01:20:17.910
jim robb: Okay cool so rather thick.

728
01:20:19.020 --> 01:20:23.700
jim robb: physically toward up some repairs and then just go off.

729
01:20:25.350 --> 01:20:25.950
jim robb: into the hole.

730
01:20:27.060 --> 01:20:27.330
jim robb: and

731
01:20:29.220 --> 01:20:43.950
jim robb: So folks in wheelchairs or or people cannot cannot get through this party and thought and thought out, it works so i'm saying is either finishing a timely manner or.

732
01:20:45.030 --> 01:20:50.610
jim robb: Over it just something so it's not this sorry fans on Wall Street.

733
01:20:53.580 --> 01:20:55.440
jim robb: All right, well.

734
01:20:56.040 --> 01:20:59.400
Noel Johnston: Which which walks through exactly are we talking.

735
01:20:59.400 --> 01:21:01.950
Noel Johnston: About i'm kinda was Robin on this.

736
01:21:03.480 --> 01:21:03.720
Noel Johnston: i'm.

737
01:21:04.920 --> 01:21:08.130
Noel Johnston: not aware of the of the circumstances and I.

738
01:21:09.900 --> 01:21:16.320
Noel Johnston: It sounds it sounds like brian's absolutely right, but i'm just i'm not informed on the circumstances.

739
01:21:17.070 --> 01:21:18.510
jim robb: Brian just said paloma.

740
01:21:19.470 --> 01:21:20.340
Noel Johnston: anywhere else.

741
01:21:21.810 --> 01:21:22.290
jim robb: Ryan.

742
01:21:24.480 --> 01:21:28.560
jim robb: told that they picked up a few over here, the one that I know for certain.

743
01:21:30.390 --> 01:21:31.950
jim robb: Disclosure because I live on.

744
01:21:36.840 --> 01:21:39.660
jim robb: your hands up do you have a walk street.

745
01:21:40.020 --> 01:21:46.530
Judy Goldman: yeah so the only street that I know about this dog dog is paloma.

746
01:21:46.890 --> 01:21:47.190
jim robb: Okay.

747
01:21:47.430 --> 01:21:59.070
Judy Goldman: Thank you, excuse me, my understanding is that because it's a historic walk street it's the the pavement that was there, the concrete should be replaced with the same material.

748
01:21:59.520 --> 01:22:11.580
Judy Goldman: and putting asphalt, there is not a solution, the concern is that the other walk streets all have markings on them, and it looks like we're all designated for some kind of infrastructural work.

749
01:22:11.730 --> 01:22:13.800
jim robb: Okay, thank you know well.

750
01:22:14.070 --> 01:22:22.140
Noel Johnston: We don't we don't seem to know what this is, and I don't think we can say multiple streets because it doesn't multiple streets, it seems to be paloma.

751
01:22:23.700 --> 01:22:24.930
jim robb: Okay, Robin.

752
01:22:25.200 --> 01:22:25.980
Judy Goldman: that's right.

753
01:22:28.260 --> 01:22:28.620
Robin Rudisill: well.

754
01:22:29.760 --> 01:22:32.820
Robin Rudisill: Can I propose some changes to make it more clear.

755
01:22:32.940 --> 01:22:34.560
jim robb: Yes, you may okay.

756
01:22:34.590 --> 01:22:40.320
Robin Rudisill: For example, um whereas paloma avenue was torn up for repairs recently.

757
01:22:41.730 --> 01:22:46.560
Robin Rudisill: yeah and other walk streets in the area appeared to be marked for same.

758
01:22:48.840 --> 01:22:53.040
Robin Rudisill: Whereas when they were haphazardly.

759
01:22:54.180 --> 01:22:59.580
Robin Rudisill: Whereas paloma was as ugly covered over with loose soft asphalt.

760
01:23:00.720 --> 01:23:04.800
Robin Rudisill: which caused it to no longer be a da compliant.

761
01:23:06.840 --> 01:23:14.760
Robin Rudisill: I guess the dnc request that timely the timely completion of this project and that I temporary solution.

762
01:23:15.960 --> 01:23:27.330
Robin Rudisill: To this problem, we adopted immediately, in addition, as this is a historic walk straight we most recommended the same materials be used so as not to.

763
01:23:29.250 --> 01:23:34.650
Robin Rudisill: damage the storage resources these these historic walk streets.

764
01:23:35.820 --> 01:23:37.380
jim robb: So this is now I do motion.

765
01:23:38.100 --> 01:23:39.990
Nick Antonicello: know those revisions to the most.

766
01:23:40.860 --> 01:23:42.660
jim robb: Those are the new revisions to the motion.

767
01:23:45.570 --> 01:23:52.920
Noel Johnston: Can I can I ask why where are talking about a reasonable temporary solution for we requesting a solution.

768
01:23:58.320 --> 01:23:59.430
Robin Rudisill: Maybe immediate.

769
01:24:01.740 --> 01:24:01.980
Robin Rudisill: I can.

770
01:24:05.490 --> 01:24:08.760
Robin Rudisill: Temporary to immediate yeah good.

771
01:24:09.480 --> 01:24:09.870
Okay.

772
01:24:12.990 --> 01:24:15.030
Nick Antonicello: motion to revive me.

773
01:24:17.250 --> 01:24:19.110
jim robb: I will second to revise motion.

774
01:24:23.760 --> 01:24:25.560
jim robb: Now we can vote on it, or do we have to.

775
01:24:26.010 --> 01:24:26.310
Okay.

776
01:24:27.570 --> 01:24:30.960
jim robb: All right, public comment anybody have public comment.

777
01:24:31.380 --> 01:24:31.800
kitty.

778
01:24:33.840 --> 01:24:35.040
jim robb: Other revisions Helen.

779
01:24:37.050 --> 01:24:53.130
Helen Fallon: It yeah i'm loud that you're asking for immediate i'm not even sure why the city should be tearing things up and just putting patch jobs, instead of actually completing the job I mean that's bothersome to me that they sort of.

780
01:24:54.420 --> 01:25:09.540
Helen Fallon: Do it partway and then just disappear and we're stuck with that, so I don't know if there's a way to put in the motion that if they're going to be doing this kind of work, it needs to be completed fully completed before they move on and tear up more things.

781
01:25:12.510 --> 01:25:12.840
jim robb: To me.

782
01:25:15.750 --> 01:25:17.160
jim robb: Judy OK.

783
01:25:17.610 --> 01:25:29.070
Judy Goldman: So again, and Helen you're right, the problem is they didn't complete the work they put a temporary solution that was dangerous and isn't a da compliant.

784
01:25:29.580 --> 01:25:35.280
Judy Goldman: This is a historic walk street they should be putting cement down and, as I told you all.

785
01:25:35.640 --> 01:25:44.370
Judy Goldman: I have an email from CD 11 saying that they're going to expedite that and I don't think we should ask for another temporary solution, I think we should.

786
01:25:44.820 --> 01:25:56.730
Judy Goldman: make a clear that we expect them to replace the cement that they tore out with cement, because the asphalt is not only not a da compliant it's unsafe people are tripping on it.

787
01:25:57.810 --> 01:26:18.120
jim robb: Okay, so thank you very much, I know vicki has her hand up, and I know bike bravo has her hand up my computer is having issues so Jim your is is on this, if you could promote Brian and I could log off and log back on or go ahead and speak Jim.

805
01:27:25.650 --> 01:27:38.610
james murez: Okay, means that the board members should not be speaking to the content of the items that are being discussed, because that would be a violation of the brown act.

jim robb: Okay, thank you.

813
01:28:01.650 --> 01:28:16.530
Nick Antonicello: What needs to be done is the people who are not committee members who have spoken on the public comment, need to be demoted back to the audience, we have a bunch of people here that are panelists it should not be panel.

814
01:28:17.160 --> 01:28:23.970

Brian Averill: They go back.

827
01:29:15.450 --> 01:29:25.770
vicki halliday: Okay, I can explain some of this poll imma stop this is all mainline sewer reworking the pipes were collapsing.

828
01:29:26.310 --> 01:29:36.750
vicki halliday: I live on the block diploma between South main and Pacific they did us first, but they did it between the houses, we are one of the few streets.

829
01:29:37.440 --> 01:29:55.830
vicki halliday: On with no no quarter Alec so they had to come in behind our houses and do a lot of digging up then when it got to Pacific they had to jump on diploma most of those numbers have to do with where the sewer lines come in from the houses.

830
01:29:57.210 --> 01:30:06.810
vicki halliday: There were one, there were some there that had completely collapsed and we're affecting a couple of buildings right by where you see, most of the work that's been done.

831
01:30:07.410 --> 01:30:14.790
vicki halliday: That was done, we were told by dwp that the department, who replaces the concrete.

832
01:30:15.420 --> 01:30:23.310
vicki halliday: is a completely different division, they don't always coordinate well They explained at the time when they finished the work.

833
01:30:23.790 --> 01:30:45.960
vicki halliday: That it would probably be two to three months before that part of dwp came in to do the work today all the front loaders the big equipment move back to the corner of sunset and South main where it's usually parked for this there's one part on paloma just west of.

834
01:30:47.220 --> 01:30:58.170
vicki halliday: Pacific and I believe that these are the people coming back to do the concrete work so put the motion through, but I believe that this work may be happening now.

835
01:30:59.790 --> 01:31:00.150
Noel Johnston: Good.

836
01:31:00.390 --> 01:31:01.170

926
01:38:00.780 --> 01:38:01.260
update.

927
01:38:02.670 --> 01:38:06.540
Noel Johnston: Jesse has been instrumental in the skatepark from its inception.

928
01:38:07.980 --> 01:38:21.840
Noel Johnston: In and in my book he's an extraordinary citizen who has devoted his personal time to taking care of the skatepark for a very long time, he cleans it now.

929
01:38:22.230 --> 01:38:38.910
Noel Johnston: and has been instrumental in and keeping it in in the best condition that a private citizen could possibly keep it in I think he is his spent some of his soul on this project, and despite the fact that he's a private citizen and this open some.

930
01:38:40.140 --> 01:38:46.140
Noel Johnston: doors that we might not want to open because there are other people that would like to have similar access to.

931
01:38:47.340 --> 01:38:49.890
Noel Johnston: Other recreation and parks.

932
01:38:51.060 --> 01:38:52.710
Noel Johnston: facilities and.

933
01:38:54.390 --> 01:38:55.380
Noel Johnston: Other other.

934
01:38:56.730 --> 01:39:06.240
Noel Johnston: items that belong to the to the to recreation and parks, I think Jesse Jesse is so extraordinary that this should be seriously considered.

935
01:39:07.950 --> 01:39:08.580
jim robb: Brian.

936
01:39:10.650 --> 01:39:25.200
Brian Averill: I agree with everything else that I mean this this guy comes he's in point doing now, he drives in 4am every morning down to the park to clean it he's been doing it since 2009 I think we open the park.

937
01:39:27.000 --> 01:39:30.450
Brian Averill: And as Noel said he's given a piece of his soul to this Community.

938
01:39:32.190 --> 01:39:41.730
Brian Averill: I talked about this with Dan from juice magazine a bunch of times and he said, this would be super helpful for him, he just wants a little there's a little storage box there, and he just wants.

939
01:39:42.810 --> 01:39:54.990
Brian Averill: To be allowed access to the water and power so he can clean the park for free, so I know there might be some some legal issues here, but this is a very extraordinary circumstance.

940
01:39:55.770 --> 01:40:01.710
jim robb: yeah he takes care of the graffiti and all and I mean he's the one that keeps it looking the way there's Robin go ahead.

941
01:40:04.110 --> 01:40:16.350
Robin Rudisill: i'm just curious if you anybody has asked someone at the city for this before and was refused and, if so, did they say why or would this be the first time, requesting.

942
01:40:18.120 --> 01:40:32.820
Noel Johnston: No, no, I to the best of my knowledge, this husband brooch to the city before and I believe that it that it hasn't been turned down button, it was not brought to the city in this particular form, I think this is a much reduced.

943
01:40:33.720 --> 01:40:55.170
Noel Johnston: Request it's a it seems to me that it's a it's a minimal request and and, as I understand it, the request that was made in the past, which is quite in the far distant past was something quite a bit broader than this, it seems like a like a small request.

944
01:40:55.620 --> 01:41:03.000
Robin Rudisill: Does it involve keys, and if so, what would the keys access something else that each should have access.

945
01:41:04.680 --> 01:41:05.280
Robin Rudisill: access.

946
01:41:06.120 --> 01:41:12.360
Noel Johnston: Unfortunately I can't I can't talk to you about the key issue I I don't I don't.

947
01:41:13.740 --> 01:41:29.880
Noel Johnston: keys keys and posed a problem with recreation and parks, but there are there are other ways to get access to water, besides, a key a water key is you know not that hard to lay your hands on you can do it yourself, I have a bunch of water keys myself.

948
01:41:31.110 --> 01:41:32.610
Noel Johnston: to various properties.

949
01:41:33.720 --> 01:41:40.230
Noel Johnston: Not not going to recreation and parks, but to do other properties and I use them frequently and nobody complaints.

950
01:41:41.760 --> 01:42:00.120
Noel Johnston: I I just think this is such a minimal request it's asking for so very little, and he does so very much that I really, really think that this this ought to be taken in in context for for what it is, which is a tiny.

951
01:42:02.820 --> 01:42:16.800
Noel Johnston: I couldn't get a kind of a kind of a nod to the to the work that this guy does, and that if we can't do it if we can't do it one way, maybe we can do it another there ought to be a way to work this out.

952
01:42:17.730 --> 01:42:20.640
jim robb: Okay, Robin you good.

953
01:42:21.150 --> 01:42:24.630
Robin Rudisill: That was just thinking he could become an official volunteer.

954
01:42:26.130 --> 01:42:27.540
Robin Rudisill: city or something like that.

955
01:42:27.660 --> 01:42:32.010
jim robb: All right, well let's let Sonia go ahead baby she had a.

956
01:42:34.380 --> 01:42:35.310
Brian Averill: Yes, on your go for it.

957
01:42:35.940 --> 01:42:43.380
Sonya Young Jimenez: yeah I was thinking, the same I know this this just came up to me today when I talked to Brian earlier, I know i've heard of this individual doing this before.

958
01:42:43.920 --> 01:42:50.070
Sonya Young Jimenez: I am looking to hire part time maintenance stuff so I don't know if he's up to like going through the process to get hired if he's already doing the work.

959
01:42:50.790 --> 01:43:03.990
Sonya Young Jimenez: or like Robin said becoming an official volunteer would make it a lot easier with you know with the city there's a lot of Union issues which is probably why God tonight in the past, because he's doing a lot of work that our Union paid maintenance staff should be doing so.

960
01:43:05.070 --> 01:43:11.910
Sonya Young Jimenez: I just think you know if he's up to like trying that application process and going through and seeing if you can get hired as a part time employee or.

961
01:43:12.240 --> 01:43:17.430
Sonya Young Jimenez: going through our volunteer process will probably be a lot easier, I also wanted to put a new shit out there, I heard the other shed.

962
01:43:17.940 --> 01:43:24.000
Sonya Young Jimenez: I think he took when he was upset I don't know i've heard different stories I don't know I wasn't here, then, but there was a shout out there that had equipment in it.

963
01:43:24.300 --> 01:43:31.950
Sonya Young Jimenez: it's no longer there, so I was thinking of putting a new shed out there, near the skate Park area that has that equipment in there, so they can have skipper.

964
01:43:33.000 --> 01:43:33.780
jim robb: Thank you so yeah.
