50 00:06:29.880 --> 00:06:31.740 Chris Plourde: yeah because, because the name. 51 00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:37.230 Chris Plourde: Because the name on the credit card didn't match the name on the ticket,

very big very pissy about it, I spent a lot of time sitting in airports waiting for somebody to come up to me and asked me why my name didn't match. 57 00:07:01.650 --> 00:07:13.740 Alix: I feel, your

00:07:24.060 Alix: And she would get stopped on a regular basis for hours on end, and she finally had to bring a lawyer in to get it sorted out. 59 00:07:28.320 --> 00:07:33.330 Alix: Anyway,

and just that we have a quorum, we will call to order. 90 00:13:11.430 --> 00:13:15.330 Alix: Does anyone want to make a motion to approve the Minutes for September 30. 91 00:13:20.400 --> 00:13:24.990 Michael Jensen: So I have a question about the same thing I I. 92 00:13:26.280 --> 00:13:31.110 Michael Jensen: wrote via email, but on the after the item see. 93 00:13:32.190 --> 00:13:33.030 Michael Jensen: Is. 94 00:13:36.840 --> 00:13:44.010 Michael Jensen: Not seconded there's a whole bunch of stuff that came out from the Minutes that just I guess that's what we're going to talk about tonight. 95 00:13:44.880 --> 00:13:59.670 Alix: we'll talk about some of it, but the short answer to it mchale is is if it's not seconded and the committee decides not to take it up it's at the president of the board's discretion whether he wishes to move it forward to the board for consideration or not. 96 00:14:02.280 --> 00:14:04.200 Michael Jensen: Right it's the President. 97 00:14:06.750 --> 00:14:09.720 Alix: President of the Board can make the decision. 98 00:14:10.410 --> 00:14:11.400 Michael Jensen: Whether or not to hear it. 99 00:14:12.390 --> 00:14:17.520 Michael Jensen: what's that whether or not to hear it correct put it on the agenda correct. 100 00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:29.160 Michael Jensen: So my only change would be that the Minutes reflect that it just was moved and seconded and the motion failed period. 101 00:14:30.180 --> 00:14:37.080 Michael Jensen: And I there was a whole explanation afterwards, but I don't think occurred at the meeting or seem like they go on minutes. 102 00:14:40.890 --> 00:14:42.270 Alix: Is that your mission to kill. 103 00:14:42.630 --> 00:14:43.080 Yes. 104 00:14:44.760 --> 00:14:47.550 Alix: Okay, so do you want to repeat that again. 105 00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:51.660 Michael Jensen: yeah let me pull up the Minutes because I have to read it exactly. 106 00:14:54.090 --> 00:14:54.690 Michael Jensen: One minute. 107 00:15:14.970 --> 00:15:22.590 Michael Jensen: So my motion is just that ELISE makes a second no second motion fails to proceed for discussion period. 108 00:15:29.460 --> 00:15:31.860 Alix: i'm sorry if that wasn't that's what's in the Minutes. 109 00:15:32.820 --> 00:15:46.200 Michael Jensen: The Minutes the Minutes read ELISE makes motion no second ocean fails for person to proceed for discuss comma loop heck does not weigh in on the motion motion goes toward for review and discussion. 110 00:15:47.490 --> 00:15:49.560 Michael Jensen: The West side regional Lions, then a. 111

is to complete the word discuss into discussion with a period and that's an delete the remainder. 114 00:16:05.550 --> 00:16:07.620 Alix: Okay, who wants to second that. 115 00:16:13.500 -->

by the way, to clarify to everybody, just because mikael has made the motion to approve the project as presented, that does not mean that will be the final motion that does not mean we have to pass that motion. 174 00:21:09.840 --> 00:21:16.350 Alix: That name you do pass that motion, it is just so we can start the conversation on this project with emotion. 175 00:21:21.060 --> 00:21:24.900 Alix: Perfect i'm letting in Dana and. 176 00:21:26.520 --> 00:21:29.370 james murez: Excuse me for interrupting you need a second time emotion. 177 00:21:30.600 --> 00:21:34.200 Alix: And I know that Jim i'm about to get a second with someone like to second that. 178 00:21:41.310 --> 00:21:42.240 Chris Plourde: I will second. 179 00:21:44.520 --> 00:21:45.090 Thanks. 180 00:21:52.560 --> 00:21:54.180 Michael Jensen: This is gonna take me a while to get used to. 181 00:21:58.290 --> 00:22:05.190 Alix: Alright, well, we can discuss that later, and I have Dana pretto and megan in the. 182 00:22:06.810 --> 00:22:12.690 Alix: In the panelists room, do you want to share screen, or do you want do do you have materials to share. 183 00:22:15.930 --> 00:22:19.350 Dana Prieto: I believe megan megan has materials to share on our behalf. 184 00:22:20.070 --> 00:22:24.150 Megan Lawler: Yes, I have some plans and basically plans and rendering or to. 185 00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:25.860 Alix: Thank you. 186 00:22:41.550 --> 00:22:43.830 Megan Lawler: Should I be bringing those up now or. 187 00:22:46.140 --> 00:22:48.480 Alix: share the screen talks about this project. 188 00:22:49.980 --> 00:22:49.980 Megan Lawler: What. 189 00:22:50.490 --> 00:22:51.060 Alix: To do. 190 00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:54.750 Megan Lawler: About that all right one, second, let me. 191 00:22:56.100 --> 00:22:59.220 Megan Lawler: Let me get this going and share my screen. 192 00:23:01.830 --> 00:23:02.400 Right. 193 00:23:05.460 --> 00:23:08.640 Megan Lawler: Okay, is everyone seen site plan. 194 00:23:10.110 --> 00:23:10.560 Alix: We are. 195 00:23:11.100 --> 00:23:17.520 Megan Lawler: Great Okay, so this is the site plan for the location at 3223 21 Abbot kinney. 196 00:23:18.840 --> 00:23:27.660 Megan Lawler: Previously, the site for the 45 trading space and the French market CAFE still the site for the F 35 printing Center. 197 00:23:28.350 --> 00:23:41.940 Megan Lawler: As everyone, I think, is aware, the French market CAFE suffered a fire and burnt down, and we are now replacing it with a new CAFE the United States of Espresso on the first floor the. 198 00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:55.050 Megan Lawler: Agenda or application is actually to convert the change of use for upstairs which was previously an open office space to an FSA yoga and training studio as well, and so. 199 00:23:55.710 --> 00:24:05.310 Megan Lawler: here on the site plan there's no change whatsoever to the existing footprint of the building or the area, the internal square footage of the building at all. 200 00:24:05.760 --> 00:24:15.570 Megan Lawler: The existing patio and cialis is actually being updated same footprint just updated and and refined bit more, and will be used by the CAFE. 201 00:24:16.260 --> 00:24:37.230 Megan Lawler: parking remains the same in the lobby, we are adding an extensive additional bicycle parking and we can get into what those numbers mean, but first i'll move into what the space will look like if that works for everyone, so the existing space sorry there we go. 202 00:24:38.250 --> 00:24:48.450 Megan Lawler: too far, this is the previous space, so we have the existing 45 here on the North end of the first floor and we had the French market CAFE. 203 00:24:48.840 --> 00:24:59.190 Megan Lawler: i'm here on the South end of the first floor and then again upstairs was really an open kind of office space and which has all been dumped out, so the. 204 00:24:59.730 --> 00:25:12.750 Megan Lawler: New plans the F 35 remains and will absorb some of the space to create a larger fitness studio here and the CAFE will continue the new CAFE will exist in the old CAFE space at a reduced footprint. 205 00:25:13.260 --> 00:25:19.980 Megan Lawler: And upstairs will open up to be a yoga yoga studio which looks like this, so. 206 00:25:20.970 --> 00:25:31.920 Megan Lawler: Again, that includes, in addition to the space change there's a lot of great updates to the building in general there's a brand new htc system which will, whereas previously the gym. 207 00:25:32.580 --> 00:25:45.330 Megan Lawler: Had a subpar system and had to open all its windows and doors to get proper airflow the new system will reduce that needs so things like sound will be much less of an issue upstairs is a much quieter. 208 00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:53.040 Megan Lawler: More mellow sort of workout program so again, not so much about a noise and again with new a new htc. 209 00:25:53.490 --> 00:26:02.850 Megan Lawler: And downstairs will still have that CAFE component, a lot of Members of the Community express being very happy to have a new CAFE component missing the French market. 210 00:26:03.270 --> 00:26:12.930 Megan Lawler: And again with the updated deck just being sort of renewed it'll be another great Community space for everyone to have where we did previously have one but. 211 00:26:13.650 --> 00:26:23.460 Megan Lawler: can bring that back and so again the 45 existed, just to get a sense of what the new spaces will look like this is some of the USA V, the United States of Espresso coffee branding. 212 00:26:23.760 --> 00:26:33.120 Megan Lawler: And upstairs, this is a bit of the aesthetic that will be for the new yoga Center so just to give you a sense of what will be there. 213 00:26:34.980 --> 00:26:39.210 Megan Lawler: Any questions or anything that you'd like me to touch upon more extensively. 214 00:26:41.070 --> 00:26:43.500 Alix: And for now now is that the end of the presentation. 215 00:26:44.070 --> 00:26:46.110 Megan Lawler: yep keep it short and sweet. 216 00:26:48.870 --> 00:27:06.210 Alix: mikael do you want to present your your report and findings and then we're going to open it up to public comment, and then we will go back to address any questions that might come to either the committee committee questions or applicant questions from the Community, thank you. 217 00:27:06.930 --> 00:27:11.490 Michael Jensen: Sure i'll uh i'll run through the report real quick um I think the big. 218 00:27:15.330 --> 00:27:17.340 Alix: tail or do you want me to you want me to leave the content. 219 00:27:18.090 --> 00:27:25.440 Michael Jensen: Should I mean I can I can put the report up um let's see here share screen. 220 00:27:26.940 --> 00:27:29.490 Alix: used to stop your share oh. 221 00:27:29.580 --> 00:27:31.710 Alix: Right, thank you, sorry. 222 00:27:32.040 --> 00:27:33.030 Megan Lawler: nope no problem. 223 00:27:33.060 --> 00:27:33.930 Alix: begun, excuse me. 224 00:27:34.560 --> 00:27:41.220 Megan Lawler: Despite you know, a year and a half of pandemic, I still somehow haven't totally managed the zoom so I apologize. 225 00:27:41.310 --> 00:27:42.390 Alix: we're all in that phone. 226 00:27:44.130 --> 00:27:50.070 Megan Lawler: Do stop video nope not what i'm supposed to do so sorry. 227 00:27:50.190 --> 00:27:52.350 Michael Jensen: Apparently, I think I can just kill your screen share. 228 00:27:52.800 --> 00:27:53.400 Megan Lawler: There we go. 229 00:27:53.460 --> 00:27:54.180 Megan Lawler: even better. 230 00:27:54.780 --> 00:27:57.450 Michael Jensen: Okay, so here is the staff report. 231 00:27:58.650 --> 00:28:02.640 Michael Jensen: i'm not going to read the project description, because I think that's on the agenda but. 232 00:28:03.900 --> 00:28:13.950 Michael Jensen: Projects as an expansion of an existing gym at 445 sorry 24 I must have been having 24 hour fitness in my head. 233 00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:18.150 Michael Jensen: that's expanding into what we used to know is the French market. 234 00:28:19.770 --> 00:28:35.430 Michael Jensen: The change of use as the office upstairs which is going to trigger an increased part and calculation that i'll get into later, but the important thing is that there's no new footprint expansion to the existing building. 235 00:28:36.570 --> 00:28:47.160 Michael Jensen: send the oakwood millwood se Venice sub area, the zoning is see to this use both I fitness studio at a CAFE are permitted to see to zone. 236 00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:52.290 Michael Jensen: The proposed parking is 30 spaces and. 237 00:28:54.030 --> 00:28:58.230 Michael Jensen: 11 bicycle spaces that's wrong sorry that's 5052. 238 00:29:00.810 --> 00:29:02.400 Michael Jensen: don't know what I was sorry. 239 00:29:03.420 --> 00:29:06.120 Michael Jensen: This is a draft report, so I will clean that up for the final. 240 00:29:08.790 --> 00:29:19.380 Michael Jensen: So I the biggest thing for me was going through the parking table and making sure that the or the parking calculation, making sure that the increased intensity intensity of use was going to. 241 00:29:20.760 --> 00:29:22.560 Michael Jensen: have enough parking per code. 242 00:29:23.700 --> 00:29:29.970 Michael Jensen: The applicants relying on a section of the La municipal code which allows you to swap. 243 00:29:31.860 --> 00:29:33.840 Michael Jensen: four to one bicycle for. 244 00:29:35.400 --> 00:29:36.450 Michael Jensen: For car spaces. 245 00:29:37.770 --> 00:29:42.600 Michael Jensen: So the total required parking for this site under the current Code is 53 spaces. 246 00:29:43.620 --> 00:29:50.280 Michael Jensen: There they're grandfathered rights results in a credit of 10 spaces. 247 00:29:51.600 --> 00:29:54.750 Michael Jensen: And so 43 spaces are actually required. 248 00:29:56.100 --> 00:30:01.470 Michael Jensen: They have 30 so the 13 are being made up out of bicycle spots. 249 00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:03.750 Michael Jensen: You know, four times. 250 00:30:06.390 --> 00:30:16.140 Michael Jensen: And that is permitted within the La municipal code, because the project is within 1500 feet of a major transit stop. 251 00:30:17.730 --> 00:30:21.120 Michael Jensen: And those are those stops are on Venice and Abbot kinney. 252 00:30:22.500 --> 00:30:34.020 Michael Jensen: there's no waivers or adjustments being requested the mass character and scale is not relevant to this discussion, because there's no change to the building exterior of the footprint. 253 00:30:35.100 --> 00:30:52.410 Michael Jensen: At the Community outreach meeting, I would say, I know, six or seven neighbors showed up and many of them were supportive of you know, having a business come back there because it's sad or I don't know how many months now, as basically a. 254 00:30:53.430 --> 00:30:54.510 Michael Jensen: You know, abandoned. 255 00:30:55.980 --> 00:30:57.690 Michael Jensen: fenced in area for the fire. 256 00:30:59.310 --> 00:31:00.000 Michael Jensen: and 257 00:31:01.110 --> 00:31:15.060 Michael Jensen: One of the neighbors did have a concern about he lives within earshot of the of the of the gym and obviously at six in the morning, listening to work out music with the windows opening or windows open was not. 258 00:31:15.660 --> 00:31:25.260 Michael Jensen: not really his cup of tea, so I think the applicants are going to solve this problem, because they are redoing the H hvac system they. 259 00:31:26.550 --> 00:31:45.390 Michael Jensen: I forget whether it was I forget who walked me through the all of the interior upgrades that are going to address sound sound dampening but the idea is this place is going to now have windows closed with music, you know, probably blaring and it shouldn't escape the the building. 260 00:31:47.130 --> 00:31:57.780 Michael Jensen: There some neighbors actually wanted to see the alcohol license return there I think they were probably frequent thurs of the French market that's not on the table, right now, but certainly. 261 00:31:59.610 --> 00:32:02.160 Michael Jensen: If the applicant chooses to come back for that. 262 00:32:03.240 --> 00:32:11.520 Michael Jensen: Some neighbors clearly supported already so and we would see them we would see the application for a CV before our committee if that happened. 263 00:32:14.100 --> 00:32:18.510 Michael Jensen: And so, with That said, I recommend proving the project is presented. 264 00:32:19.470 --> 00:32:23.400 Alix: Thank you Mattel and i'm going to open this up for public comment. 265 00:32:25.290 --> 00:32:27.360 Alix: Does anyone have public comment on this project. 266 00:32:29.310 --> 00:32:30.330 Alix: I see one hand. 267 00:32:34.380 --> 00:32:37.260 Alix: One hand great I see Erica. 268 00:32:45.180 --> 00:32:45.570 Alix: Erica. 269 00:32:46.320 --> 00:32:55.350 Erica Moore: I just wanted to compliment you like on your tail on your floor it's really nice very easy to read and really appreciate that. 270 00:32:55.950 --> 00:33:01.440 Erica Moore: i'm super familiar with this property and I think it's wonderful that something new, is going to have in there. 271 00:33:01.830 --> 00:33:10.980 Erica Moore: I am a little concerned about the set I like to use it resets the neighbors but it's playing the whole section where it would be filled out about their responses. 272 00:33:11.460 --> 00:33:17.820 Erica Moore: is actually playing on the report it'd be nice to see that filled in and i'd actually like to see a little bit more outreach to the neighborhood. 273 00:33:18.210 --> 00:33:29.550 Erica Moore: Just because you had low attendance, it might be that people weren't aware, and I think it is important, especially when you're bringing something in like that, where you potentially could be quite busy, and have lots of patrons. 274 00:33:30.690 --> 00:33:41.100 Erica Moore: And, basically, I also wanted to highlight is our is it going to be closed so you're not looking out into other neighbors guards and they're not exposed. 275 00:33:41.820 --> 00:33:56.460 Erica Moore: to people that are inside looking down I don't know how it situated with that so just wanted to acknowledge that and good luck with your project, I think that this should be approved yeah but why am I just wanted to express those concerns, I had thanks. 276 00:33:57.240 --> 00:33:57.810 Alix: Thank you. 277 00:34:01.140 --> 00:34:04.830 Alix: And with that we are closing public comments. 278 00:34:04.890 --> 00:34:09.480 james murez: Eric Alex might my hand is up and he was for public comment. 279 00:34:11.220 --> 00:34:14.520 Alix: i'm sorry Jim you're not in the public years a Co host. 280 00:34:15.480 --> 00:34:19.650 james murez: Okay i'm in the public in this meeting because i'm not a member of the committee. 281 00:34:20.010 --> 00:34:29.130 Alix: Well urine as a panelist but i'm, especially because you just unmuted yourself but feel free to chime in if you have public comment on non agenda items. 282 00:34:29.700 --> 00:34:31.380 james murez: No, this is on the agenda item. 283 00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:35.670 Alix: Is this on this particular motion on this particular project. 284 00:34:35.730 --> 00:34:40.530 Alix: Yes, oh sorry, please make your comment before we close public comment. 285 00:34:40.740 --> 00:34:43.500 james murez: Thank you um could you put the. 286 00:34:44.520 --> 00:34:50.310 james murez: diagram up back, I guess, is it megan could you put the illustration backup of the site plan. 287 00:34:51.300 --> 00:34:57.810 james murez: Absolutely so For those of you that don't know I worked on this project about 20 years ago when I was on with pat. 288 00:34:58.920 --> 00:35:00.390 james murez: before it was actually a restaurant. 289 00:35:01.410 --> 00:35:16.950 james murez: there's a couple of things that I would just like to point out, and perhaps ask you if you've also considered So if you move your cursor down to the lower portion of the screen just drop it down now back to where the dotted line is keep going up there's a passage way. 290 00:35:17.400 --> 00:35:26.760 james murez: Between two neighborhoods and it goes along the the what i'm going to call the bottom portion of the drawing there's about a five foot walkway there and that's a public right of way. 291 00:35:28.830 --> 00:35:34.290 james murez: At some point in time somebody put a gate up there, and that should remain open. 292 00:35:35.850 --> 00:35:43.080 james murez: Because it is a way for the Community to get through now, having said that i'm not opposed to having it be secure in some way. 293 00:35:43.500 --> 00:35:51.060 james murez: But I think that it should be considered that it is a public right of way and perhaps more importantly Mars street doesn't have a sidewalk. 294 00:35:51.810 --> 00:35:56.160 james murez: And this has been a big problem for the entire neighborhood for many, many years. 295 00:35:56.460 --> 00:36:05.220 james murez: So while you're going through this process, it would be really nice to get a sidewalk in on marsh street and then that public right away along the backside of the property wouldn't be necessary. 296 00:36:05.520 --> 00:36:14.040 james murez: The problem is, is that people have to walk in the street when they come off of Abbot kinney to get into the back, maybe you're right there where your cursor is right. 297 00:36:14.040 --> 00:36:15.120 Megan Lawler: yeah there's a. 298 00:36:15.240 --> 00:36:23.190 james murez: sidewalk there you have you know some bushes you have a step down, but I think you have enough space for at least a three foot, maybe even a five foot wide sidewalk. 299 00:36:23.460 --> 00:36:34.800 james murez: i'm not sure if it's public property or if it's your property, but nevertheless, if you were to want to make those improvements, while you're making your other improvements and just pour concrete there, I think that that would be a big benefit to the whole Community. 300 00:36:36.390 --> 00:36:42.840 james murez: Also, with your parking configuration, I wonder if you considered ballet or tandem parking. 301 00:36:43.470 --> 00:37:02.160 james murez: With an attendant and the attendant could be the business operator only because I personally don't see 52 bicycles coming there and I see parking perhaps being a consideration going forward and, as far as the hba see I just hope that that doesn't end up further impacting. 302 00:37:03.240 --> 00:37:11.910 james murez: The environment that we're passing on to our next generation, the generation thereafter because we're using electricity to run the hba say. 303 00:37:12.390 --> 00:37:25.260 james murez: And we live within a half a mile of the ocean and if there's a way of getting a cross ventilation, perhaps in later hours of the day, I think that that should be a recommendation to the to the property owner. 304 00:37:26.310 --> 00:37:28.080 james murez: So that's my comments Thank you Alex. 305 00:37:28.440 --> 00:37:33.990 Alix: Thanks and i'm closing public comment and. 306 00:37:36.300 --> 00:37:37.770 Alix: megan do you want to take your screen down. 307 00:37:38.640 --> 00:37:42.900 Megan Lawler: Sure, and is there an opportunity to respond to any of the comments or is that oh. 308 00:37:43.560 --> 00:37:56.610 Alix: Absolutely, this is our chance for the committee to have comments and for for you to respond and I just want to it's a leaks here, I just want to add into jim's comments I was going to say something to mchale I know he is approved is presented, but i'd love to see maybe. 309 00:37:57.690 --> 00:38:05.190 Alix: You know windows open after a certain hour, rather than the H fat going all the time, I think it's challenging um. 310 00:38:07.410 --> 00:38:11.100 Alix: I think it's a challenging situation and that. 311 00:38:13.080 --> 00:38:20.940 Alix: You know we're in a we're in this post coven world and what do we do with fitness facilities doing proper air ventilation. 312 00:38:21.480 --> 00:38:32.610 Alix: filtration not just you know cross ventilation, I don't know the answer to that, but megan please, please ask and committee members, if you have questions, please raise your hand and we'll give you the floor. 313 00:38:35.130 --> 00:38:44.310 Megan Lawler: Okay well just right out the gate i'll respond Thank you so much about their can Jim for your comments everything's you know we're always happy with open ears to hear what he has to say. 314 00:38:44.670 --> 00:38:59.070 Megan Lawler: and also to Erica question about the privacy, no new windows are being added so with regards to any sort of concerns about people from the second floor looking down into the spaces there's. 315 00:39:00.150 --> 00:39:07.950 Megan Lawler: Any views they had before they might still have but certainly nothing new has been added, and frankly haven't been up there, quite a bit myself. 316 00:39:08.310 --> 00:39:25.170 Megan Lawler: and looked at, not those windows, given all the screening to the neighbor's house is particularly behind the parking lot to the condos that are South and Southwest there's really no visibility there and I haven't really noticed any visibility to the West but certainly no new. 317 00:39:26.730 --> 00:39:29.400 Megan Lawler: kind of exposure is being introduced. 318 00:39:30.570 --> 00:39:35.490 Megan Lawler: And then, with the rest of the public passage i'm actually curious you're referring to the south end of the building. 319 00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:46.200 Megan Lawler: Where it is currently fenced off and has been on account of the fire and then security reasons, are a lot of people come sleeping in the abandoned building from around the area. 320 00:39:46.590 --> 00:39:58.560 Megan Lawler: And so I don't know what the history is without having been open, but we can certainly look into that with regards to kind of be able to cross behind the south of the building and then into what would be like the deck area in the parking lot. 321 00:39:59.100 --> 00:40:01.680 Megan Lawler: And I think Jim that's what you were referring to. 322 00:40:03.060 --> 00:40:11.070 Megan Lawler: And lastly, we did hear the comments about the sidewalk and don't disagree that will all be all the park Park, he is going over there and we've actually. 323 00:40:11.460 --> 00:40:22.620 Megan Lawler: Dana and every team has really cultivated a great relationship with some local bike manufacturers and bike designers who have talked about doing a great sort of artistic and thoughtful. 324 00:40:23.460 --> 00:40:30.360 Megan Lawler: That of bike racks there to accommodate the bikes and also one of the things that we talked about together in that early discussion. 325 00:40:31.620 --> 00:40:40.110 Megan Lawler: In you know and looking to see if that's something we can pursue is kind of making sure that there was a bit more space to maneuver along that mastery is. 326 00:40:40.500 --> 00:40:49.110 Megan Lawler: crazy i've almost been hit an hour times myself out there, so we're definitely aware of that, as an issue and are taking it into consideration, serious consideration so. 327 00:40:49.980 --> 00:40:55.320 Alix: Thank you megan does anyone have questions that they'd like to raise with the applicant. 328 00:40:56.250 --> 00:40:58.410 Michael Jensen: Can I just clarify a couple things. 329 00:41:00.300 --> 00:41:10.590 Michael Jensen: Erica you had a comment about the report and I just wanted to note because you said that there was an area that's blank there's two places where I have public comment. 330 00:41:11.130 --> 00:41:23.310 Michael Jensen: One is there's a summary of feedback in the Community outreach section and then in that loop hearing summary one of the items is public comments so that's I think the one you were looking at that was blank. 331 00:41:24.780 --> 00:41:25.320 Michael Jensen: If not. 332 00:41:26.490 --> 00:41:38.760 Michael Jensen: I stand corrected, but I think that's just there's actually two places for it one obviously isn't filled out yet, because it doesn't occur at the point where I draft the do the initial draft of the southport. 333 00:41:41.640 --> 00:41:50.430 Alix: Thank you Mattel does anyone else on the committee have questions comments anything they'd like to weigh in on if you raise your hand we can start a conversation or newish. 334 00:41:50.730 --> 00:41:51.990 Mehrnoosh: yeah i'm. 335 00:41:53.100 --> 00:42:03.450 Mehrnoosh: just wondering about the restaurant, the French CAFE or decline beaten same people or a is that going to be a set up with a new with uncle put it. 336 00:42:04.470 --> 00:42:09.060 Megan Lawler: it's a new company that will be operating it and the owner, the French market. 337 00:42:09.900 --> 00:42:23.940 Megan Lawler: After the fire since stepped away, so it is in fact a new owner it's a new CAFE and it will be it's it's coffee focused and then there will also be sort of over the counter pastries and packaged items and whatnot. 338 00:42:24.450 --> 00:42:29.100 Mehrnoosh: You know, and then they would have that exterior space garden area as well yeah. 339 00:42:29.910 --> 00:42:35.730 Mehrnoosh: they're inside the red area, or is it is a decrease in square footage. 340 00:42:36.150 --> 00:42:42.180 Megan Lawler: The exterior deck will be the same size and and will be upgraded and sort of refine it's just. 341 00:42:42.510 --> 00:42:46.860 Megan Lawler: kind of a lot of the damage that was there is being fixed and it's been kind of upgraded with furniture. 342 00:42:47.190 --> 00:43:03.210 Megan Lawler: And the interior space will be slightly smaller, but a lot of the French market space was also for market, so there will be as far as like seating area on the interior, it should be roughly the same, even though the footprint itself will be slightly smaller on the Interior. 343 00:43:03.540 --> 00:43:04.050 Extra. 344 00:43:05.070 --> 00:43:10.980 Mehrnoosh: Okay, and the site plan wasn't there a parking or the north side of the law as well. 345 00:43:12.270 --> 00:43:13.050 Megan Lawler: and still is. 346 00:43:13.620 --> 00:43:14.400 Mehrnoosh: It still is. 347 00:43:14.520 --> 00:43:16.890 Mehrnoosh: Is this room, the whole scenario okay. 348 00:43:19.530 --> 00:43:20.040 Alix: anyone else. 349 00:43:20.430 --> 00:43:25.110 Mehrnoosh: I think they sent me to spend so much of the great spaces for parking cars, like. 350 00:43:27.030 --> 00:43:37.560 Megan Lawler: Well, hopefully being that this is such going to be a very fitness focused demographic coming to the space, perhaps they'll all be walking or riding their bikes or running or jogging or something he'll be less cars. 351 00:43:37.590 --> 00:43:39.930 Michael Jensen: yeah i'd actually I mean i'd like to speak to that because I. 352 00:43:41.280 --> 00:43:44.700 Michael Jensen: When I went to gyms and this feels like. 353 00:43:46.200 --> 00:43:48.210 Michael Jensen: Another lifetime, but I always buy. 354 00:43:49.290 --> 00:43:56.100 Michael Jensen: And whether that was gold, or even I went to a gym in Santa Monica that was probably about two or three miles away, and I still bike. 355 00:43:57.690 --> 00:44:07.620 Michael Jensen: I think, for a lot of locals are going to be going to this gym they're going to bike or walk I don't know that's my non scientific feeling about it but. 356 00:44:08.940 --> 00:44:10.860 Michael Jensen: I mean, the fact remains the parking. 357 00:44:12.000 --> 00:44:12.570 Michael Jensen: Is. 358 00:44:13.800 --> 00:44:16.500 Michael Jensen: To code so that's what we look for. 359 00:44:17.940 --> 00:44:21.750 Dana Prieto: And I can speak to that if anyone is interested in knowing. 360 00:44:22.830 --> 00:44:38.250 Dana Prieto: The history of our demographic and their transportation means to the property since we've had just for a little knowledge for those of you that may not know at 45 consumed. 361 00:44:39.270 --> 00:44:49.920 Dana Prieto: One of the spaces down below on the first floor and we have been there since 2016 so a large majority of our membership base either walked skateboard or. 362 00:44:50.880 --> 00:45:02.190 Dana Prieto: or rode a bike, and so the goal now and being mindful of of jim's comment earlier about using H back and and transportation. 363 00:45:02.790 --> 00:45:22.230 Dana Prieto: The goal on my plan is to develop a green a green commuter plan for our Members, so those who ride their bike skateboard or walk will kind of accrue a point system and will be rewarded for for using alternative means to commute to the to the space. 364 00:45:23.100 --> 00:45:24.120 Alix: that's enough. 365 00:45:25.890 --> 00:45:34.260 Megan Lawler: and actually Thank you Dana for reminding me also to jim's point, both in addition to the sound issue, as well as just general installation upgrade to the building. 366 00:45:34.830 --> 00:45:42.090 Megan Lawler: there's been extensive upgrades to the installation of the building as a whole and energy standpoint, as well as from a sound insulation, so, in addition to. 367 00:45:43.140 --> 00:45:51.150 Megan Lawler: filling out the walls and adding lots of installation to exterior walls which help with some of the the heat exchange and whatnot as well as sound. 368 00:45:51.780 --> 00:45:59.910 Megan Lawler: there's also for more sound isolation between the floors which helps reduce the vibrations in the building, which helped produce the sound that's transferring out and. 369 00:46:00.510 --> 00:46:09.480 Megan Lawler: And again, some of the new there's a reflective roof system to help you know again kind of try to reduce the heat transfer heatsink effect so. 370 00:46:11.670 --> 00:46:14.580 Megan Lawler: Now we're trying we're trying we're doing what we can for sure. 371 00:46:15.330 --> 00:46:32.190 Alix: mchale, this is a lakeside have a question I know you have to prove is presented, do you think we should just condition it so that there is an option to open windows that like windows have to remain shuttered like at certain like up until a certain hour. 372 00:46:33.570 --> 00:46:40.350 Michael Jensen: So I don't know whether that's an enforceable condition, I guess, the first question, but I mean my my sense is. 373 00:46:41.670 --> 00:46:43.710 Michael Jensen: This is sort of like a common sense, you know. 374 00:46:45.390 --> 00:46:52.290 Michael Jensen: If they continue to play loud music with the windows open their neighbor is going to be a huge pain in the butt. 375 00:46:54.210 --> 00:46:58.260 Michael Jensen: Especially if they come back to us and seek some kind of you know, a CV or something. 376 00:47:00.060 --> 00:47:13.230 Michael Jensen: But, so I guess My first question is whether this is an enforceable condition to say that Okay, you can have opening windows between you know 10am and 6pm maybe it is I I. 377 00:47:14.280 --> 00:47:15.330 Michael Jensen: don't I don't know. 378 00:47:17.100 --> 00:47:27.660 Michael Jensen: But you know my my senses that that shouldn't be I mean these guys have been there since 2016 you know this neighbor didn't show up. 379 00:47:28.980 --> 00:47:35.970 Michael Jensen: clamoring for conditions like that and that neighbor is the one who lives to cross the street so. 380 00:47:37.080 --> 00:47:41.100 Michael Jensen: You know I maybe i'd have a different feeling about it, if the neighbor was there, you know. 381 00:47:42.480 --> 00:47:45.900 Michael Jensen: up in arms, but it doesn't sound like it's a major concern. 382 00:47:47.820 --> 00:47:51.480 Alix: The question I don't have like super strong feelings about it, it came up so. 383 00:47:53.340 --> 00:47:54.300 Alix: I don't have. 384 00:47:55.770 --> 00:47:57.750 Alix: issues with it, I think we can call the question. 385 00:47:58.770 --> 00:48:01.320 Michael Jensen: Okay, so i'll make the motion to approve is presented. 386 00:48:01.920 --> 00:48:06.750 Alix: and Chris Isaak into debt and we will take a vote mchale i'm assuming you're yes. 387 00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:08.220 Michael Jensen: Yes. 388 00:48:08.670 --> 00:48:09.720 Alix: Yes, yes. 389 00:48:10.170 --> 00:48:12.450 Alix: Yes, and. 390 00:48:12.540 --> 00:48:14.310 Alix: i'm Corinne. 391 00:48:14.580 --> 00:48:16.020 Alix: Yes, renews. 392 00:48:16.380 --> 00:48:19.020 Alix: Yes, and I am yes. 393 00:48:21.900 --> 00:48:22.410 Megan Lawler: Great. 394 00:48:23.910 --> 00:48:29.580 Alix: As you will come to our November board meeting. 395 00:48:30.930 --> 00:48:31.740 Megan Lawler: Remember okay. 396 00:48:33.630 --> 00:48:36.660 Michael Jensen: What was the vote count on that is that five that are five here. 397 00:48:37.050 --> 00:48:38.940 Alix: carried it's it's 500. 398 00:48:39.420 --> 00:48:41.130 Michael Jensen: Okay well i'm just doing the. 399 00:48:42.420 --> 00:48:43.770 Michael Jensen: Updating the staff report as we go. 400 00:48:44.760 --> 00:48:46.500 Alix: Perfect Thank you guys. 401 00:48:46.860 --> 00:48:49.590 Megan Lawler: Thank you and thank you for your help to Thank you everyone. 402 00:48:49.800 --> 00:48:50.070 Dana Prieto: Thank you. 403 00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:50.610 guys. 404 00:48:53.610 --> 00:49:04.650 Alix: So now we're going to move on to process and procedures, I noticed on the agenda for some reason it read the project twice and i'm not sure why and my computer is very funky all this week, but. 405 00:49:05.910 --> 00:49:16.290 Alix: there's been questions on process and procedure, I asked Ivan to come in to our meeting I think I saw him in the attendees i'm going to promote him to panelists so that, if we have any. 406 00:49:16.680 --> 00:49:23.640 Alix: Parliamentary issues I haven't i'm promoting you to panelist I would just ask that you please don't speak unless you are called upon. 407 00:49:24.840 --> 00:49:25.530 Alix: and 408 00:49:27.480 --> 00:49:41.070 Alix: discuss some of the the issues so first of all in in relation to how how the meetings are going to run and to sort of align or vital line with robert's rules. 409 00:49:41.640 --> 00:49:56.910 Alix: And this is something I just learned I didn't realize is the Chair cannot make emotion and I cannot second emotion, so it is incumbent upon someone in the committee, to make a motion and to end for someone else to second yet. 410 00:49:59.070 --> 00:50:10.890 Alix: And that's on everything, whether it's an agenda approval i've not agenda for whether it's it's a minute's approval, whether it's an emotion I can't do that you guys have to do it. 411 00:50:12.480 --> 00:50:33.330 Alix: I can ask, I can say what someone entertain making this motion, and we need to have a motion on the table with a second to start the conversation on the item so mikael to your point about how in previous meetings we didn't do it that way, and I had a conversation with daffodil. 412 00:50:34.590 --> 00:50:42.150 Alix: At the beginning of this term, you know just talking about how to make our new pack meetings, more effective and and constructive. 413 00:50:42.600 --> 00:50:53.430 Alix: And I asked her why we weren't mimicking board procedure and she said to me that it had been done this way in the past and that that voice dropped that that procedure. 414 00:50:54.150 --> 00:51:00.030 Alix: And she's like, but if you think you're technically right, it is, it is how it would be done in robert's rules. 415 00:51:00.420 --> 00:51:09.000 Alix: And she's like you're technically right and it might make your meetings work better and run better so feel free to try it out and see how it works. 416 00:51:09.300 --> 00:51:19.980 Alix: So the reasoning behind it is, is that if we have emotion on the table and it's seconded now we are, we are officially allowed to have this project up for conversation. 417 00:51:20.670 --> 00:51:30.270 Alix: The applicant then does their presentation staff and does their presentation and perhaps in all of this conversation between the applicant and the staff. 418 00:51:31.080 --> 00:51:38.610 Alix: It might eliminate certain questions that might come from the audience, it may or may not we don't know, but at least everything is on the table. 419 00:51:38.880 --> 00:51:54.930 Alix: Before we go to public comment, so it also improves and ensures a bit more transparency it's not trying to reinvent the wheel it's not trying to be difficult or complicated it's really trying to like clean up our meetings and have better and more meaningful. 420 00:51:58.020 --> 00:52:02.490 Alix: Community engagement and transparency, so does that make sense to everybody. 421 00:52:08.340 --> 00:52:09.600 Michael Jensen: Because you are trying to talk. 422 00:52:10.050 --> 00:52:22.950 Michael Jensen: No that totally makes sense, I think the, I think, where the confusion was the sort of I mean one i'm going to have you know five years of doing it a different way to try and beat out of my system but. 423 00:52:24.090 --> 00:52:35.520 Michael Jensen: So breaking the habit of that will be difficult, but I think I mean mostly it just seemed like that was from on us at the at the meeting, and it was like wait what is that, as the new process. 424 00:52:35.550 --> 00:52:36.270 And so. 425 00:52:38.490 --> 00:52:39.720 Michael Jensen: For me, even. 426 00:52:41.250 --> 00:52:50.220 Michael Jensen: You know, having done this for a while, though i'm no by no means like an expert that just like was a total curveball. 427 00:52:52.140 --> 00:52:57.150 Alix: I apologize that's my fault and that's why we've just thrown in this thing on process and procedures. 428 00:52:58.050 --> 00:53:08.580 Alix: Like and I hope with that, like explanation and like you understand why it's being done that way and it's not just me being like arbitrary and, by the way, I mean mchale i'm used to the way. 429 00:53:08.970 --> 00:53:21.450 Alix: You know you did it as well to right like I did that, for two years as chairman and watching the loop back meetings i've watched it that way, so I have to break the habit, just like you do, but reduced us also but my hope is is that. 430 00:53:22.590 --> 00:53:41.280 Alix: A we're really more aligned with Roberts and be we really have more transparency to the public, so ideally between a staff of four at an applicant presentation, there might be enough things explained there that it may be minimized certain certain certain public comment right. 431 00:53:43.590 --> 00:53:49.830 Alix: Yes, does anyone else, like Chris or Corinne have have questions. 432 00:53:50.550 --> 00:53:51.030 or. 433 00:53:52.590 --> 00:53:53.520 Alix: What i'm going to be. 434 00:53:53.940 --> 00:54:08.040 Chris Plourde: That is a yes okay i'm going to be much more elementary mm hmm so i'm asked to look into a project that and address I reach out to the lady singer. 435 00:54:08.520 --> 00:54:10.590 Alix: Chris can I stop you for a second because. 436 00:54:11.640 --> 00:54:12.480 Alix: That I just. 437 00:54:12.690 --> 00:54:31.800 Chris Plourde: I just wanted some procedure, this is a procedure I don't understand the procedure how I get to the place that Michael was at when he turned in his report, I just want to understand the procedure for doing that and to that I do it properly. 438 00:54:32.940 --> 00:54:43.080 Chris Plourde: And I don't have that institutional knowledge, and so I raised this as a question to discuss, because I think we're talking to. 439 00:54:45.150 --> 00:54:46.800 Alix: Chris you just muted yourself. 440 00:54:50.610 --> 00:54:51.000 Alix: There you go. 441 00:54:51.480 --> 00:54:54.540 Chris Plourde: I didn't because i'm gonna let you talk. 442 00:54:55.410 --> 00:55:05.040 Alix: Okay, so one I wasn't trying to cut you off with process and procedures, I was just trying to cut you off because I wanted to make sure we were aligned on how the meeting is running. 443 00:55:05.310 --> 00:55:15.240 Alix: Moving forward and why it's running that way because there were some questions on that i'm moving on to your question of how to get to the place where mikael is that so. 444 00:55:15.870 --> 00:55:31.170 Alix: You will, there will be a project, there will be either an architect an owner a lawyer or a land use person who's representing the project Are you familiar familiar with cms. 445 00:55:33.810 --> 00:55:34.290 Alix: Chris. 446 00:55:34.890 --> 00:55:45.390 Chris Plourde: I went the wrong way I have seen Z mess, I find it, I find it a matching system but it's fine I understand how it works. 447 00:55:45.870 --> 00:55:59.700 Alix: Right, it is maddening system, but you can pull off some basic information from from gina's but, more often than not you're going to get an address an applicant from from myself Korean question. 448 00:56:00.210 --> 00:56:11.880 corinne Baginski: Now, once you you you're assigned a project is the architect, is it the responsibility of the architect to send you drawings or is our drawings coming from you. 449 00:56:12.210 --> 00:56:26.700 Alix: know at the end and I understand that Jim has a different point of view on this, it is the responsibility, and this is how it's been for the last many, many years, it is the responsibility of the applicant to provide us with their drawings. 450 00:56:27.480 --> 00:56:37.110 Alix: and of what is and what is most up to date and and i'll give you some context for that, like, I myself was personally involved in an appeal of the project. 451 00:56:37.500 --> 00:56:50.610 Alix: And what we found was that the the documents that were uploaded onto cms versus what was presented at lupa were completely different different and. 452 00:56:51.300 --> 00:57:02.700 Alix: I want to make sure that whatever we're presenting is like the most up to date version, so that our comments are going on the on the most recent documents that the applicant. 453 00:57:03.870 --> 00:57:04.890 Alix: is working off of. 454 00:57:07.980 --> 00:57:22.560 Alix: So the applicant will upload and provide and, by the way, sometimes there are things that come in, like streetscape request shade study requests renderings a whole variety of things that that don't necessarily come through to. 455 00:57:23.280 --> 00:57:31.620 Alix: To city planning, and I think the more information we have, especially on bigger projects, the the better serve the Community is. 456 00:57:33.330 --> 00:57:35.310 corinne Baginski: But where do they upload their. 457 00:57:36.180 --> 00:57:44.910 Alix: They don't upload they can they will they will email them in PDF format to us, it needs to be under 15 megabytes so I had a situation. 458 00:57:45.150 --> 00:57:55.800 Alix: Where where we had a project, and there was a very like extensive deck done it was version 11 Okay, so there had been 10 rounds of drawings on this. 459 00:57:56.550 --> 00:58:05.880 Alix: That we're going through the pipeline and the one that was finally agreed upon this version 11 and it was a 20 megabyte document I couldn't upload it into our system but. 460 00:58:06.750 --> 00:58:21.330 Alix: All documents have to be under 1515 or under megabytes and they should come to me and to you because you need to see them and I will upload them that's my job to get them into the site and linked. 461 00:58:23.220 --> 00:58:23.730 Alix: Mikhail. 462 00:58:24.780 --> 00:58:35.730 Michael Jensen: yeah I was actually to chris's question i'm wondering if I can run a quick, I think I can probably do it in about five minutes, but I can run from like assuming I get an address. 463 00:58:36.930 --> 00:58:45.930 Michael Jensen: To how I, like you know start gathering all the documents to do the report I can do that run through on a screen share right now. 464 00:58:46.350 --> 00:58:54.690 Michael Jensen: And sort of just show everyone the steps and i'm happy to because i'll do it quickly but i'm happy to like walk you anyone through it again. 465 00:58:55.110 --> 00:59:06.630 Michael Jensen: But it's just it's sort of like a quick in there'll be a quick and dirty way to get like the basic information when you are given an address that you're assigned and not necessarily anything else. 466 00:59:08.100 --> 00:59:08.850 Michael Jensen: Because I work. 467 00:59:09.540 --> 00:59:19.020 Alix: And by the way, you will never just be given an address with no contact information, I will always give you like a contact person or or someone and. 468 00:59:19.680 --> 00:59:33.090 Alix: You know, feel free to reach out to myself to mchale to bury or two major news, if you want us to walk through initial calls with the applicant I just did that this week with Andrew. 469 00:59:33.870 --> 00:59:45.270 Alix: I think we're going to have some cases that Barry is going to help you with hurried or you're going to shadow, so that we can hopefully all become more up to speed and more comfortable in the process right Thank you. 470 00:59:47.910 --> 00:59:50.790 Michael Jensen: Alright, so let me just pull this up real quick. 471 00:59:52.050 --> 00:59:53.190 Michael Jensen: Share screen. 472 00:59:54.270 --> 01:00:05.940 Michael Jensen: And okay so here's where we start so i'm going to go to the most calm i'm already there but i'll just show you but it's Z I am as thought oh geez. 473 01:00:08.880 --> 01:00:20.970 Michael Jensen: dizziness la city.org that's the right website so we'll just do i'll pull the case that I just did, and that was 2321 either Kenny, so you. 474 01:00:22.980 --> 01:00:31.230 Michael Jensen: You type in just the address and or the the number and the street, no avenue know south. 475 01:00:33.120 --> 01:00:33.630 Michael Jensen: and 476 01:00:35.160 --> 01:00:41.820 Michael Jensen: Excuse me, so this will pull up the parcel that's identified by this address well it actually has two parcels but. 477 01:00:43.680 --> 01:00:51.090 Michael Jensen: So on on your left here it'll give you the site address the zip Code, the parcel number all of the sort of. 478 01:00:53.070 --> 01:00:55.200 Michael Jensen: parcel map information. 479 01:00:56.430 --> 01:01:07.710 Michael Jensen: And in there's a jurisdictional box here it'll tell you, you know we know it's in Venice, the area planning Commission it's in the West la planning Commission city 11. 480 01:01:09.570 --> 01:01:13.530 Michael Jensen: that'll give you all of the jurisdictional stuff and since called jurisdictional. 481 01:01:14.580 --> 01:01:24.450 Michael Jensen: And then, in the planning and zoning it'll give you, you know the zoning information it'll tell you the general plan sorry there's a lot of motorcycle. 482 01:01:25.530 --> 01:01:26.760 Michael Jensen: just give me a second here. 483 01:01:30.090 --> 01:01:35.250 Michael Jensen: And also tell you the sub area here, which is where I get that information for the staff report. 484 01:01:38.160 --> 01:01:41.340 Michael Jensen: Now, if you go down to a box it's called case numbers. 485 01:01:42.630 --> 01:01:46.740 Michael Jensen: This is going to give you everything every case number that's gone through planning. 486 01:01:47.400 --> 01:01:59.730 Michael Jensen: will get tagged and be in this box and usually the link will work, so you can just click on it sometimes it's a two step process, because the city's websites are always garbage. 487 01:02:00.210 --> 01:02:20.850 Michael Jensen: But you can see, this right here it's Dir 2021 always have the year right here is a number, and so, if we're hearing a case generally it's for for a planning case number that was filed in 2021 or 2020 it's going to be the, the most recent one that's on here. 488 01:02:23.070 --> 01:02:25.290 Michael Jensen: And so we click on that. 489 01:02:26.790 --> 01:02:36.060 Michael Jensen: And this will bring us to the city's planning department page and it will have the case number when it was filed the data was assigned. 490 01:02:37.050 --> 01:02:48.240 Michael Jensen: into cannon is the staff members she's signed a lot of Venice staff it'll give you a project description this, by the way, is the case description that I use on the staff report. 491 01:02:49.080 --> 01:02:51.630 Alix: verbiage, let me just interrupt you, for a second, and that is the. 492 01:02:52.290 --> 01:03:01.380 Alix: One that I use on the agendas as well too I just mchale will you go back to the case Members for a second because I just want to point two things out. 493 01:03:01.890 --> 01:03:06.120 Alix: yep sorry so sometimes you will see. 494 01:03:07.410 --> 01:03:11.730 Alix: Like two different things so you'll see you'll see Dr. 495 01:03:13.950 --> 01:03:20.610 Alix: Okay, so that'll tell us that it's that it's this year and that's a number that then look down you'll see end of 2021 CPC. 496 01:03:21.900 --> 01:03:37.890 Alix: Right, it will be envy because it's a 2021 is likely part of this as well, too, so that gets agenda is on the report as well, too, so that we have the accurate numbers for the case sorry to interrupt, I just wanted to make sure everyone was aware of that. 497 01:03:39.180 --> 01:03:43.650 Michael Jensen: And usually, by the way, those all come up here when you. 498 01:03:43.860 --> 01:03:46.140 Michael Jensen: On the planning website usually. 499 01:03:46.440 --> 01:03:48.540 Alix: Being the operative word yeah. 500 01:03:49.050 --> 01:03:50.340 Michael Jensen: So um. 501 01:03:51.000 --> 01:03:52.650 Michael Jensen: So that's how you get to. 502 01:03:53.700 --> 01:03:58.200 Alix: make one last thing sorry i've been in cases where. 503 01:03:58.740 --> 01:04:08.610 Alix: staff assigned is one thing on one part of the number and it's another thing, on the other part of the number or some kind of staff changes along the way, so you will frequently hear me ask and say. 504 01:04:08.910 --> 01:04:20.610 Alix: Who is staff on this just to double check it's I think it's always helpful to ask who the staff is on the case and if you have questions about it or it's something that you think is complicated. 505 01:04:21.090 --> 01:04:29.310 Alix: You know all of the people at West la are very, very helpful feel free to reach out to them, I know I speak to them on a fairly regular basis. 506 01:04:29.640 --> 01:04:40.920 Alix: And Jason Douglas, who is the planner and bonds office is also incredibly helpful and incredibly knowledgeable and a resource and always willing to sort of be useful, with his time starting to fall gone. 507 01:04:41.640 --> 01:04:43.950 Michael Jensen: No that's great um so. 508 01:04:46.590 --> 01:05:02.820 Michael Jensen: Where was I oh Okay, so if you want to find the documents you know we talked about the documents that are submitted to planning and making sure that those are the ones that were seeing when they come before us, this is where I get the exact same. 509 01:05:03.900 --> 01:05:04.830 Michael Jensen: documents. 510 01:05:06.420 --> 01:05:09.600 Michael Jensen: All right here the this movie. 511 01:05:11.160 --> 01:05:16.050 Michael Jensen: So here it'll have the project plans boom, you can download the same exact plans. 512 01:05:17.160 --> 01:05:25.620 Michael Jensen: you'll have you can actually pull the application if if you're in a situation where you don't necessarily know who you're you need to contact, although usually. 513 01:05:26.340 --> 01:05:36.630 Michael Jensen: leaks does usually either put you on an email with them or give give you a phone number for the representative, but you'll find on this application so I need to move this window again. 514 01:05:37.770 --> 01:05:41.880 Michael Jensen: That the contact information you'll see right here. 515 01:05:42.930 --> 01:05:44.070 Michael Jensen: Leslie the architect. 516 01:05:45.420 --> 01:05:45.870 Michael Jensen: Dana. 517 01:05:47.430 --> 01:05:52.650 Michael Jensen: The manager or the sorry and I don't remember what your title was, but she said at 45. 518 01:05:54.060 --> 01:05:54.630 Michael Jensen: and 519 01:05:56.670 --> 01:06:06.300 Michael Jensen: And then, also the property owners to sign a document they usually you all usually you won't be dealing with the property owner actually it's great when you do because it's like the person who's. 520 01:06:06.870 --> 01:06:12.090 Michael Jensen: doing the work is actually the person who owns the property it's nice to see, but this is a total. 521 01:06:13.110 --> 01:06:14.550 Michael Jensen: Total just commentary on that. 522 01:06:16.830 --> 01:06:23.760 Michael Jensen: And so that's really you know I download all of these things, I will put them in a folder you can see. 523 01:06:24.990 --> 01:06:29.160 Michael Jensen: This is, you know I put all of their stuff in in into. 524 01:06:30.300 --> 01:06:38.760 Michael Jensen: What I eventually link in my staff report here as supporting documents, so when you click on this, I mean this is not. 525 01:06:40.020 --> 01:06:47.640 Michael Jensen: This is not sufficient for public notice, but I just find it to be very helpful that when people pull a staff report, they can. 526 01:06:48.900 --> 01:06:51.450 Michael Jensen: You know, get all the documents directly from that. 527 01:06:52.710 --> 01:06:55.110 Michael Jensen: I also did for this one poll the. 528 01:06:56.880 --> 01:07:00.030 Michael Jensen: The CB so back when I was talking about the. 529 01:07:01.200 --> 01:07:02.670 Michael Jensen: grandfathered parking rights. 530 01:07:03.810 --> 01:07:26.280 Michael Jensen: I went through the alcohol permit that was granted back in 2008 to the French market and found where they had the amount of parking that was required for it and that's how I confirmed that there were indeed 30 spaces, that was sufficient for the use of the whole building and. 531 01:07:28.470 --> 01:07:31.800 Michael Jensen: You know there's there's a couple different ways to do that, you can also look at. 532 01:07:33.450 --> 01:07:41.850 Michael Jensen: The la dbs building records and see the certificate of occupancy if it's something that was issued recently it'll have a. 533 01:07:44.010 --> 01:07:48.360 Michael Jensen: it'll have a parking a number of parking spaces on it so. 534 01:07:49.980 --> 01:07:54.450 Michael Jensen: yeah that's a I guess quick and quick and dirty way of how I get to. 535 01:07:55.470 --> 01:08:03.720 Michael Jensen: Getting all the data points that you would need to build your staff report and after that I go to. 536 01:08:05.130 --> 01:08:15.900 Michael Jensen: Usually I do this dashboard ahead of time, then I attend the Community outreach meeting that was actually not the case this time because of just timing, so I i've drafted the staff report afterwards. 537 01:08:17.460 --> 01:08:29.100 Michael Jensen: And I make notes about the Community and put at the at the meeting any kinds of responses from the applicant, and then we go, you know set them for hearing. 538 01:08:30.570 --> 01:08:31.200 Michael Jensen: that our committee. 539 01:08:31.680 --> 01:08:42.540 Alix: So, and there are a couple things to to look out for as your as you're going through the process, so if you see me l which stands for mellow um. 540 01:08:43.080 --> 01:08:57.840 Alix: You know the city will not consider a case complete without a mellow determination we don't want to hear projects, unless they have their mellow determination, sometimes their projects that are on hold we're not going to hear projects that are on hold. 541 01:09:00.360 --> 01:09:04.290 Alix: If you see CA that's the zoning adjustment. 542 01:09:05.430 --> 01:09:15.750 Alix: See is a categorical is exemption so when you start seeing things like that their their chances are they're going to come before Lou pack, and there may be. 543 01:09:16.110 --> 01:09:31.110 Alix: There may or may not be like concerns to the Community, we will hear every CV we will hear every commercial project I think that's really important for the Community to hear those sorts of things um. 544 01:09:32.730 --> 01:09:38.760 Alix: I guess, we should backtrack up to the cmc reports which are the city early notification planning reports. 545 01:09:40.020 --> 01:09:43.530 Alix: Which is, which is the genesis of where this is coming from so. 546 01:09:44.400 --> 01:09:56.880 Alix: When I took over Lou peck last term from matt Royce matt basically was like you know it's up to your discretion as to what project, you want to hear put are here on the agenda. 547 01:09:57.510 --> 01:10:07.650 Alix: And Jim and I had conversations early on, and he said, you know, we should really notice all the projects that have been filed for Venice. 548 01:10:08.610 --> 01:10:22.830 Alix: So that the it's on the agenda it's in public record and that way, if someone says well why didn't you hear this, we can say Okay, but this was on the agenda on xyz date and nobody came in and said, we want to hear this project. 549 01:10:23.970 --> 01:10:38.340 Alix: So it will be a combination of what the public wants and anything that I deem is like big enough or has enough issues in it that I think we should here and, as I said, all commercial and all alcohol permits go on and. 550 01:10:39.390 --> 01:10:48.270 Alix: I asked the city to send the cnc reports to everybody on loop heck I don't know why that's not happening, you can go to the planning department and ask for them. 551 01:10:48.600 --> 01:10:58.590 Alix: I will also start forwarding everybody the cnc reports so you can see them yourselves they used to do them just by district now you get every project that's been filed in the city of La. 552 01:10:59.490 --> 01:11:11.280 Alix: So obviously we just put the ones in that are pertinent to Venice and you will see the project description and when it was filed and oftentimes who the REP is so that is why that's going on the agenda. 553 01:11:12.270 --> 01:11:26.070 Alix: If anyone had questions about that, and how will start assigning out projects, so I know there's been a lot of information does any Corinne and christopher's do you guys have questions so far. 554 01:11:27.900 --> 01:11:28.800 corinne Baginski: i'm good Thank you. 555 01:11:29.250 --> 01:11:30.360 Alix: you're good Chris. 556 01:11:31.470 --> 01:11:43.380 Chris Plourde: i'm going to have internal questions that I don't think or i'd love to is as much kyle am I going to shadow Mikhail on a case. 557 01:11:43.620 --> 01:11:44.040 Alix: You I. 558 01:11:44.100 --> 01:11:50.610 Michael Jensen: think we just yet, I think there's a case we just got assigned, and so I will. 559 01:11:51.750 --> 01:11:54.990 Michael Jensen: include you on the email to them and. 560 01:11:56.280 --> 01:11:56.640 Michael Jensen: and 561 01:11:57.660

As well with someone also i'm working on something with Andrew at the moment, and when that resurfaces i'm sure we'll bring him on to work with someone as well to. 577 01:12:59.550 --> 01:12:59.940 Chris Plourde: Any. 578 01:13:00.480 --> 01:13:01.920 Alix: additional questions on that. 579 01:13:02.970 --> 01:13:05.190 Chris Plourde: No cuz I can get into the weeds later. 580 01:13:06.000 --> 01:13:06.810 Alix: Okay, then. 581 01:13:06.990 --> 01:13:07.710 Michael Jensen: we'll get into that. 582 01:13:07.740 --> 01:13:09.150 Michael Jensen: we'll get into the weeds Chris. 583 01:13:10.830 --> 01:13:13.650 Alix: there's lots of leads to get into um. 584 01:13:16.950 --> 01:13:34.290 Alix: Okay, moving on just so you understand about posting agendas and my timelines for posting so our meetings are on Thursdays, and that means my agenda is new to be posted and noticed by Monday so. 585 01:13:34.860 --> 01:13:41.820 Alix: You know we're all super busy, but it means that I really need all relevant documents and materials. 586 01:13:43.050 --> 01:13:55.800 Alix: By Friday or to know like if everyone's able to attend and like Sunday morning at the very latest because schedule permitting I generally finalize agendas on Sundays, so they can either be posted on Sunday. 587 01:13:56.130 --> 01:14:04.620 Alix: or first thing on Monday and, if I can get them up earlier, I can but we've you know yet to be able to get this done so. 588 01:14:05.910 --> 01:14:08.340 Alix: When I send those emails out, it would be very helpful. 589 01:14:08.370 --> 01:14:18.570 Alix: it's not like being badly could send me something on Wednesday and say Oh, can you get this posted that's not going to work i'm macallan renews. 590 01:14:20.010 --> 01:14:26.940 Alix: We had a situation and I know mchale you and myself and TIM and death dealt with this a lot last last. 591 01:14:27.630 --> 01:14:34.590 Alix: term and we made the decision that we were not going to act as an advisory board and your projects before they were filed in the city within the city. 592 01:14:35.580 --> 01:14:42.840 Alix: We had someone reach out on a project that was not yet filed with the city and they wanted to come before Luke peck first. 593 01:14:43.650 --> 01:14:55.140 Alix: gym seems to feel that we should be doing that I, I think we need to stick with precedent that we shouldn't be doing that, but I want to hear more news your opinion mchale your opinion, etc, etc. 594 01:14:55.740 --> 01:15:00.120 Michael Jensen: I guess, I remember, we did that with I want to say was Winston house. 595 01:15:01.020 --> 01:15:01.770 Michael Jensen: And we didn't speak. 596 01:15:02.550 --> 01:15:05.670 Alix: Because they had thought they had sent in their planning application. 597 01:15:05.700 --> 01:15:06.300 Michael Jensen: Already. 598 01:15:06.600 --> 01:15:07.860 Michael Jensen: But didn't have a case number. 599 01:15:08.040 --> 01:15:09.600 Alix: Correct correct. 600 01:15:09.660 --> 01:15:17.880 Michael Jensen: So, which is sort of effectively the same thing, because you can't go to the planning department and pulled a case number, but are not effectively effects. 601 01:15:17.940 --> 01:15:18.570 Alix: But they were. 602 01:15:18.870 --> 01:15:27.330 Alix: going to get the case number they weren't they were like they were not looking like they were not looking to make changes or get our opinion they wanted to move the process along. 603 01:15:28.080 --> 01:15:45.720 Michael Jensen: yeah I mean, I guess, where I mean where I can understand as an applicant you'd want to do that, because if you're trying to file something and test the waters or are you trying to test the waters before you file, something that may cost a boatload of money to file. 604 01:15:47.250 --> 01:15:51.570 Michael Jensen: I can see it, I mean the the I guess the question is like bandwidth. 605 01:15:53.220 --> 01:15:53.880 Michael Jensen: You know, we had. 606 01:15:54.840 --> 01:16:01.710 Michael Jensen: We I mean we had one one case tonight like we could have heard someone who wanted to present a concept. 607 01:16:02.250 --> 01:16:15.990 Michael Jensen: and come back with an it, you know basically just have a presentation like we had tonight we have the bandwidth in two months, we may not because there's 17 pending out like I don't know what the I don't know what the pipeline of cases is. 608 01:16:17.460 --> 01:16:17.880 Michael Jensen: You know. 609 01:16:20.100 --> 01:16:24.330 Michael Jensen: So I guess it's a question of you know, do we want to spend the time on that. 610 01:16:27.780 --> 01:16:38.340 Michael Jensen: To approve something that or support something that may not actually see its way through planning does seem like a waste of time for volunteers to be doing, you know I can go either way on that, but. 611 01:16:39.360 --> 01:16:50.490 Alix: I mean I yeah i'm just pointing out that we took a pretty strong position on that in our last in our last term, and you know, Tim took a really strong pov on that. 612 01:16:52.020 --> 01:16:52.620 Alix: I tend. 613 01:16:52.650 --> 01:17:10.500 Alix: to feel that you know we can certainly you know, have a staff member talk to the applicant is adhere it out and say you know I suggest you do some Community outreach you know if you think they're going to be some issues, but I I don't think it's a productive use of our time. 614 01:17:10.980 --> 01:17:14.730 Mehrnoosh: that's my thing we should, I think we should go with the filing I agree with. 615 01:17:15.720 --> 01:17:18.690 Michael Jensen: yeah I mean I think that's fine to to. 616 01:17:20.730 --> 01:17:22.710 Michael Jensen: stay with tradition. 617 01:17:24.150 --> 01:17:25.590 Michael Jensen: On precedent yeah. 618 01:17:26.190 --> 01:17:27.810 Mehrnoosh: Anyway, okay. 619 01:17:28.950 --> 01:17:31.830 Alix: Corinne i'm Chris any questions. 620 01:17:35.250 --> 01:17:35.640 corinne Baginski: No. 621 01:17:39.330 --> 01:17:39.660 Michael Jensen: Go ahead. 622 01:17:40.140 --> 01:17:55.440 corinne Baginski: yeah is it okay well we're working on on on the project to communicate with somebody else like let's see if I need to talk to her no show or mchale because I need an answer, or you um. 623 01:17:56.190 --> 01:17:57.690 Alix: So here's when I actually. 624 01:17:58.230 --> 01:18:13.530 Alix: So here's what I would say to that i'm going to answer that very quickly one, I would like to stay copied on the correspondence, because I like to follow the bouncing balls but you can't if, once you speak to three I believe it's three. 625 01:18:14.700 --> 01:18:26.280 Alix: Three Lou pack Members, you are an angel while you're shadowing only talk with the person you're shadowing so if you're working very on something. 626 01:18:26.760 --> 01:18:38.580 Alix: only speak to Barry on it Okay, and if you are, and then, once you're no longer shadowing I should be the one poppy did on to everything so that I can follow the bouncing balls. 627 01:18:39.150 --> 01:18:44.490 Alix: Because the applicants always come and ask me questions regardless, so if i'm like lost in the weeds it's very hard for me. 628 01:18:44.760 --> 01:18:58.380 Alix: But for brown act purposes, you can't start a conversation with Barry on the project and then go to Macau on a project because barry's not you know very son's birthday and he's not available, like that's where we're going to run into problems. 629 01:19:00.270 --> 01:19:02.940 Does that answer the question, yes yeah. 630 01:19:04.020 --> 01:19:18.600 Michael Jensen: Thank you, I think, can we can we I guess refine what we were talking about violate you know the brown act and sunshine laws and what it means to violate it we're talking about like the merits of the case. 631 01:19:19.620 --> 01:19:27.000 Michael Jensen: Not scheduling not process questions but, like the merits of a case that is before us. 632 01:19:28.320 --> 01:19:29.370 Michael Jensen: So if you're. 633 01:19:31.080 --> 01:19:36.690 Michael Jensen: You know you can't be you know saying oh this case is terrible or this case is great with. 634 01:19:38.520 --> 01:19:49.380 Michael Jensen: You know what would be I guess it's three because it's a quorum what would be a majority of a quorum which, for us, since it's a nine Member board five is a quorum three as a majority. 635 01:19:50.640 --> 01:19:52.890 Michael Jensen: The rule of three for our Community. 636 01:19:54.810 --> 01:20:10.140 Alix: But I just think I kill for clarity purpose, like, I think you start getting into the weeds if, like you know it's fine for you to have one person assigned to you and that person should be dealing with you, not with two other people or one other person. 637 01:20:10.410 --> 01:20:16.830 Alix: Even if it's just very technical questions like I you know I don't want to get into the weeds with that so. 638 01:20:18.000 --> 01:20:24.210 Alix: To be clear, once you're working on a project just with the just with the person who you're shadowing. 639 01:20:25.530 --> 01:20:27.990 Alix: Until you're on your own, and then it will be with me. 640 01:20:31.230 --> 01:20:31.650 Alix: Yes. 641 01:20:33.750 --> 01:20:34.530 Chris Plourde: i'm fine. 642 01:20:36.180 --> 01:20:43.920 Michael Jensen: yeah and I think it's okay to not know I mean here's an example, like some of these parking calculations are incredibly. 643 01:20:46.320 --> 01:20:51.150 Michael Jensen: Like you want to hit your head against the wall trying to figure it out when, especially when there's like. 644 01:20:52.620 --> 01:21:00.750 Michael Jensen: grandfathered rights and then you're trying to figure out what the credit is and what the delta between what they need, and what they are bringing like. 645 01:21:01.920 --> 01:21:09.420 Michael Jensen: If you don't know you can you can I think it's okay to say you don't know and as a committee at the hearing we can figure out whether it's. 646 01:21:10.890 --> 01:21:22.890 Michael Jensen: Whether it's correct, I mean leaks tell me if i'm wrong here, but rather than you know, trying to suss out the answer through through other committee members, you know, take a stab at it if it's wrong it's wrong. 647 01:21:24.090 --> 01:21:26.040 Michael Jensen: Or if you don't know you don't know you. 648 01:21:26.640 --> 01:21:34.380 Mehrnoosh: Really parking and you just have to go through the zoning procedures and specific plan trying to put that together, as you do. 649 01:21:34.620 --> 01:21:45.480 Alix: Right, but I mean look things are changing on a regular basis, so, for example, we have sb 330 right now and sb 30 is one on one replacement for for. 650 01:21:45.900 --> 01:21:56.220 Alix: and relocation for for affordable housing, but the way our city attorney has interpreted it is that it's not additive, meaning that if you have. 651 01:21:57.150 --> 01:22:02.190 Alix: Nine units of rsl housing and the developer comes in and demolishes that building. 652 01:22:02.700 --> 01:22:20.040 Alix: To to build a bigger building with tlc and density bonuses and they're going to call and they're going to put in 100 units and they're going to claim we've met our requirements by replacing with nine technically, and this is probably what's coming down the pipeline is that. 653 01:22:21.120 --> 01:22:32.490 Alix: it's not going to be nine it's going to be 10 plus nine it's going to be 10% of all of the units, plus the ones that you're replacing otherwise you're not really adding additional affordable house it. 654 01:22:33.150 --> 01:22:40.410 Alix: Now, this has been up for interpretation so to the question of we don't always know the answers we don't always know the answers and it's always evolving. 655 01:22:41.310 --> 01:22:52.680 Alix: I had a conversation with an applicant last week, and he put in an key put in an application for a house with an ad you in the oakwood region. 656 01:22:52.920 --> 01:22:59.430 Alix: and was told by planning that he couldn't do that because it's come down from coastal Commission that coastal doesn't want to see. 657 01:22:59.730 --> 01:23:12.480 Alix: any more of these houses with ad use in in the oakland area now, this was news to me, and he said I don't want us and i've submitted it now is to single family houses, but this changes the parking it's a problem. 658 01:23:13.140 --> 01:23:30.600 Alix: i'd never heard of this before i've now called Jason I call out to coastal i've called some land use people to hear what they know and try and like get the answer to this, so we don't always know the answer to things it's fluid right and laws are changing so. 659 01:23:33.570 --> 01:23:34.740 Alix: there's my answer on that. 660 01:23:36.570 --> 01:23:36.840 Michael Jensen: and 661 01:23:38.790 --> 01:23:40.860 Michael Jensen: he's i've been here is, I see his name. 662 01:23:41.760 --> 01:23:42.090 yeah. 663 01:23:44.700 --> 01:23:51.240 Michael Jensen: But I guess a couple of questions for him from it from me is so agenda has to go. 664 01:23:53.310 --> 01:24:00.090 Michael Jensen: go up 72 hours ahead are we taking a are we putting a deadline on staff reports at the committee level. 665 01:24:01.710 --> 01:24:02.130 Michael Jensen: Like. 666 01:24:03.720 --> 01:24:12.900 Michael Jensen: Should they be up 72 like do you want them the same Sunday that you get all the materials kind of staff report follow is there a. 667 01:24:13.650 --> 01:24:26.190 Michael Jensen: Are we setting a hard fast rule for that, because I mean in the past we've done it anywhere from 72 hours to like I mean some staff reports have gone up the same day as as the case is there a rule on that. 668 01:24:28.470 --> 01:24:28.800 Alix: I have in. 669 01:24:29.880 --> 01:24:30.240 Ivan: me. 670 01:24:31.200 --> 01:24:39.300 Ivan: is quite a nice thing that the committee has any documents, need to be made available to the public. 671 01:24:43.170 --> 01:24:52.740 Ivan: So if you have a staff record that didn't go to committee, it really should get posted with the agenda or posters in the den them on the website. 672 01:24:53.280 --> 01:25:03.570 Ivan: Somewhere that the public and see at the same time, we used to have to make copies for the when the meetings will arrive you start to have copies that a lot of needing. 673 01:25:04.620 --> 01:25:07.290 Ivan: to the public, but now you can just do it online. 674 01:25:09.240 --> 01:25:10.470 Ivan: Does that make sense. 675 01:25:14.250 --> 01:25:17.820 Michael Jensen: yeah so Hello me to our rule applies also to to stop. 676 01:25:18.060 --> 01:25:29.280 Ivan: yeah to things like staff report plan and each thing that the committee is given you know, to help make the determination, the public has a right to see that. 677 01:25:30.360 --> 01:25:35.610 Alix: Many get something 48 hours before the meeting and not 72 hours like. 678 01:25:36.240 --> 01:25:38.130 Ivan: Okay, well, we. 679 01:25:38.820 --> 01:25:39.780 Alix: 72 hours. 680 01:25:39.810 --> 01:25:40.740 Ivan: If we don't have it. 681 01:25:40.830 --> 01:25:46.710 Ivan: You can't post it, but you should try to tell your people to get it to you before you have the boat. 682 01:25:46.890 --> 01:25:48.030 Ivan: The one without saying oh. 683 01:25:48.390 --> 01:25:59.040 Alix: So I think the cal to answer this question on the honor system, I would like to try and get our staff reports in in advance, so that we have everything in place. 684 01:25:59.370 --> 01:26:15.060 Alix: I understand that life happens and often and there's an outreach meeting or something else you know the staff report comes in a day later, but I think we should make best efforts to have those staff reports come in with all the other. 685 01:26:16.680 --> 01:26:18.120 Alix: With all the other materials. 686 01:26:21.090 --> 01:26:27.210 Alix: And and i'm not putting a hard and fast on this because we're all volunteers and we're all trying to do. 687 01:26:28.500 --> 01:26:32.610 Alix: The absolute best that we possibly can, and. 688 01:26:34.440 --> 01:26:38.580 Alix: You know, but I think i'd like to say, can we all make best efforts to do this. 689 01:26:39.210 --> 01:26:51.900 Michael Jensen: yeah I mean also like the staff report, like the one that I do before our committee meeting as a draft it then evolves based on the committee meeting and I guess like tonight we'll have some corrections in it. 690 01:26:53.460 --> 01:26:56.550 Michael Jensen: Like for the parking spaces, that I miss identified but. 691 01:26:58.890 --> 01:27:02.100 Michael Jensen: You know, I guess, a draft report can go up on. 692 01:27:04.080 --> 01:27:06.360 Michael Jensen: Monday or Sunday whenever you post it. 693 01:27:06.360 --> 01:27:06.870 Ivan: yeah just. 694 01:27:07.680 --> 01:27:10.170 Michael Jensen: Water more of them, it can be revised. 695 01:27:12.270 --> 01:27:14.550 Ivan: Do you know how to put a watermark on a document. 696 01:27:15.060 --> 01:27:15.450 Alix: It doesn't. 697 01:27:15.990 --> 01:27:16.290 Michael Jensen: work. 698 01:27:17.010 --> 01:27:18.090 Yes, I do if. 699 01:27:19.140 --> 01:27:22.200 Michael Jensen: I all of my staff reports say draft and find no. 700 01:27:22.980 --> 01:27:25.170 Ivan: Okay, then then you're covered yeah. 701 01:27:27.690 --> 01:27:30.360 Alix: All right, any additional questions on that. 702 01:27:32.580 --> 01:27:34.440 Alix: Green Chris. 703 01:27:37.350 --> 01:27:37.770 Alix: Now. 704 01:27:40.470 --> 01:27:41.040 Chris Plourde: No. 705 01:27:43.950 --> 01:27:45.420 Alix: No additional questions okay. 706 01:27:46.650 --> 01:28:03.270 Alix: final thing are that you guys should all be aware of is that that is neighborhood Council is part of the West side regional association of Councils and the West side regional association of Councils has different committees, just like. 707 01:28:04.500 --> 01:28:12.360 Alix: The dnc does just like many of the boards do the neighborhood Council system and they work on issues that are more. 708 01:28:13.500 --> 01:28:16.320 Alix: Regional regionally based so. 709 01:28:17.370 --> 01:28:33.480 Alix: Where i'm where she's originally based I urge everybody to go into the rock website, I will start distributed when we have those meetings so anyone who wants to attend kind of time minutiae times quite a bit cream, was it the last one to super smart group of people. 710 01:28:34.800 --> 01:28:43.980 Alix: On Sunday, we had an hour half presentation on sustainable building standards it's fascinating I learned a lot, including even new materials that are coming down the pipeline and. 711 01:28:44.310 --> 01:28:54.450 Alix: different ways communities are looking to me a car free world, but that's still understands people need cars different sustainable practices anyway. 712 01:28:55.590 --> 01:29:05.430 Alix: Interesting speakers calm it's the first Sunday of every month, I urge you to go, I urge you to look at the emotions that are there, I urge you to read the supporting materials that are there and get familiar with these. 713 01:29:06.210 --> 01:29:12.990 Alix: motions and with these policies, because we think it's just about Venice, but there are much broader. 714 01:29:14.010 --> 01:29:18.780 Alix: Issues that impact all of CD 11 and actually all of California state. 715 01:29:20.460 --> 01:29:24.240 Alix: Which brings me to the next thing, which is the. 716 01:29:25.290 --> 01:29:32.250 Alix: Local coastal plan, update and the Community plan land use plan update. 717 01:29:32.250 --> 01:29:35.130 Michael Jensen: Can I ask you a question about rock yeah we're we. 718 01:29:36.300 --> 01:29:36.450 Michael Jensen: Are. 719 01:29:37.590 --> 01:29:38.700 Michael Jensen: Two questions one. 720 01:29:40.590 --> 01:29:46.830 Michael Jensen: Does rack present if our entire lupa committee shows up to it does that present a brown act issue. 721 01:29:47.970 --> 01:29:57.990 Michael Jensen: Because it's if we have three Committee members there on a you know motion that comes then to loop heck. 722 01:29:59.130 --> 01:30:18.780 Michael Jensen: Is that an issue, and then to on these rack motions which it I just i've said this a lot just lack I mean I know you send links to background information from rack but treating rack like. 723 01:30:20.130 --> 01:30:23.730 Michael Jensen: You know any other kind of case that comes before us. 724 01:30:25.830 --> 01:30:31.320 Michael Jensen: You know, can we have a staff member assigned to preparing a. 725 01:30:33.000 --> 01:30:42.960 Michael Jensen: Report from our Committee on what something is and what the background is rather than just relying on. 726 01:30:44.910 --> 01:30:58.680 Michael Jensen: Someone who's you know from a different and see who's appointed to rack who's writing I mean most of their background materials are arguments in favor of the motion, not a. 727 01:31:00.510 --> 01:31:01.020 Michael Jensen: You know. 728 01:31:02.880 --> 01:31:03.840 Michael Jensen: Analysis of it. 729 01:31:06.180 --> 01:31:10.260 Alix: Okay i've been to the first part of that question, do you know the answer to that question. 730 01:31:12.240 --> 01:31:19.680 Ivan: yeah i'm pretty sure that racket is not brown acted it's not a brown acted body. 731 01:31:20.370 --> 01:31:28.770 Ivan: Okay So yes, I would think any number can go it's just I wouldn't go with the team and all start talking at once, you know i'm saying. 732 01:31:31.440 --> 01:31:40.350 Alix: That that makes sense and just to you know for everyone here i'm rap requires that you identify yourself at the meeting so. 733 01:31:40.860 --> 01:31:51.690 Alix: They you know they see new names and new faces, they will ask who are you and where are you from um you know that's that's their operating procedure right like I don't have. 734 01:31:52.950 --> 01:31:53.280 Ivan: yeah. 735 01:31:53.820 --> 01:32:02.790 Ivan: Okay, can I, this is going back a little bit from to previous discussion about the majority of the quorum. 736 01:32:03.240 --> 01:32:13.650 Ivan: And everything correct, you do have to worry about the majority of the park talking to other people on the committee, but we have resources. 737 01:32:14.280 --> 01:32:27.210 Ivan: of people that have been on looping over the years that are still we're still in touch with like our current President and Vice President and talking to them, if you have questions. 738 01:32:27.360 --> 01:32:31.260 Ivan: I want to bounce things off of you can certainly talk to them. 739 01:32:31.620 --> 01:32:34.800 Alix: Respect for me I then i'm going to stop you right there. 740 01:32:35.010 --> 01:32:36.480 Ivan: I want to be very clear about that. 741 01:32:37.110 --> 01:32:41.850 Alix: We have no board members on lip huck except the Chair of. 742 01:32:41.850 --> 01:32:42.330 lupa. 743 01:32:43.980 --> 01:32:45.240 Ivan: Saying stop. 744 01:32:45.480 --> 01:32:58.830 Alix: i'm going to i'm going to interject on this, because there is a separation between the board and Lou Pack and I recognize the daffodil and Jim we're both on Lou peck those are not the resources that should be used for loop huck. 745 01:32:59.520 --> 01:33:02.280 Alix: Question there they're not if people. 746 01:33:02.760 --> 01:33:03.090 Ivan: Are the. 747 01:33:03.330 --> 01:33:03.990 Alix: first letter. 748 01:33:05.280 --> 01:33:05.730 Ivan: Over. 749 01:33:06.000 --> 01:33:08.280 Ivan: here to that aren't on the board i'm. 750 01:33:08.580 --> 01:33:09.780 Ivan: Trying to give you a resource. 751 01:33:11.970 --> 01:33:23.880 Alix: For me to do, and I think it's adequate for any of our current live members to you know to be able to shadow one on one and i'm happy to refer to to pass Lou pack members. 752 01:33:24.990 --> 01:33:28.500 Alix: You know who are prepared to get involved or people in the Community. 753 01:33:30.600 --> 01:33:37.920 Alix: To speak to and their and their land use consultants that are also very helpful, but I that but going to the President and the Vice President. 754 01:33:38.190 --> 01:33:45.630 Alix: On the board, who have to vote on these issues is not a good way to go about this, so I would ask that you please don't. 755 01:33:46.200 --> 01:33:55.950 Alix: Please strike ivan's recommendation and if you're not getting what you need from either myself or the current members, then please reach out to me and we'll find other resources. 756 01:33:59.250 --> 01:34:00.000 Alix: Sorry, I didn't. 757 01:34:02.850 --> 01:34:03.210 Ivan: write. 758 01:34:05.280 --> 01:34:06.930 Alix: um is that clear to everyone. 759 01:34:11.010 --> 01:34:17.430 Alix: um anyway, Mikhail so that answers your question on forum at rack um. 760 01:34:18.270 --> 01:34:27.030 Alix: You know I I tend to disagree with you, I think that the the Rack motions with their with their background information. 761 01:34:27.330 --> 01:34:38.460 Alix: is sufficiently adequate and it's adequate for the raft board and it's adequate for the majority of Councils within rack to make decisions on these motions in these on these issues. 762 01:34:39.060 --> 01:34:47.310 Alix: So I don't know why it's so complicated to read something and decide and make an opinion or have a conversation while we're at committee. 763 01:34:47.580 --> 01:35:02.040 Alix: The last motion that we had was simply to ask Mike your to provide a legal analysis on something I don't I don't understand what the there was a there was a background document on it, it wasn't even digging into the weeds on a policy. 764 01:35:03.090 --> 01:35:15.150 Alix: So if we can't read and we can't have have conversation, as a committee, and make a decision whether we want to support a motion or not I don't think we're doing our jobs. 765 01:35:16.830 --> 01:35:25.770 Michael Jensen: I don't want to get into the merits of cases that are I mean we're we're not we have an agenda is on the of these like big ticket sb 330 i'll up. 766 01:35:28.710 --> 01:35:34.140 Michael Jensen: Whatever the item was from last week from Rack, so I don't want to get into the specifics of any one case. 767 01:35:36.270 --> 01:35:43.020 Michael Jensen: But, but I just think you know conceptually we are taking at face value. 768 01:35:44.040 --> 01:35:54.240 Michael Jensen: What I see, is it like like the example I would use is like a project proponent who's bringing to bring us a you know any other case and. 769 01:35:55.230 --> 01:36:10.770 Michael Jensen: They give us background material on it, which is the the plans they usually have proposed findings all the stuff from the planning file and we don't look to that alone for informing our decision. 770 01:36:11.940 --> 01:36:14.760 Michael Jensen: So with something like rack which. 771 01:36:15.900 --> 01:36:33.420 Michael Jensen: has a different set of priorities than I think you know I recognize there are regional issues and statewide issues and all that but rack really resemble or represents a not necessarily coextensive set of priorities. 772 01:36:34.440 --> 01:36:34.980 Michael Jensen: As we do. 773 01:36:36.450 --> 01:36:40.980 Michael Jensen: we're a very different Community than most, if not all of the other. 774 01:36:42.360 --> 01:36:56.250 Michael Jensen: Community and neighborhood Councils that comprise rack so that's why I just think having a stakeholder of event a stakeholder take a look at what rack is you know, taking a look at what they're presenting. 775 01:36:57.330 --> 01:37:11.160 Michael Jensen: and diving in to what it is because I mean the usually what rack is presenting is a complex large issue and it's accompanied by you know, a one page. 776 01:37:11.640 --> 01:37:29.430 Michael Jensen: summary which is, it is a viewpoint but it's not necessarily an Objective one, nor one that is that everyone in Venice necessarily agrees with so that's my two cents on it, I know we've had an extensive email dialogue about it. 777 01:37:30.870 --> 01:37:33.090 Michael Jensen: I just you know that's that's my feeling. 778 01:37:33.780 --> 01:37:48.090 Alix: So i'm gonna speak to that for a second I went to almost every new tech meeting, where there was in fact ocean on when matt was President, and you were there and I never once heard this brought up and I never once saw a. 779 01:37:48.930 --> 01:37:57.870 Alix: Job actually there was one where there was a document that was put forth and actually opposing the rock position and proposing the opposite of the Rock position. 780 01:37:58.200 --> 01:38:12.300 Alix: And all those notions somehow do peck managed to weigh in on without any background information or any staff report, so I think that the the the information with with links to bills and Council files and analysis. 781 01:38:13.080 --> 01:38:18.810 Alix: is adequate, but I will review and see if there needs to be additional information. 782 01:38:20.250 --> 01:38:29.700 Alix: put forth, and I think we're all capable of reading and having a conversation and making the decision, if we want to accept an emotion from wrath or not um. 783 01:38:30.870 --> 01:38:45.660 Michael Jensen: Either way, it may very well have been the case back then, and I think it was wrong them, and you know, I think, as this committee evolves to function better, I think this is one of the things that we should adopt, and I mean I don't know. 784 01:38:47.010 --> 01:39:00.990 Michael Jensen: That many years ago, I was fairly new to the committee, you know at this point, I feel like I have a lay of the land now, and you know this is just how I know how my views have evolved. 785 01:39:02.100 --> 01:39:07.530 Michael Jensen: So yeah I mean if that was the case back then I don't think I think that was wrong them. 786 01:39:09.570 --> 01:39:11.070 Alix: noted um. 787 01:39:12.390 --> 01:39:22.110 Alix: I would urge everyone to attend a meeting or two and I try and send out a variety of different articles and and Council files, I would urge everybody to. 788 01:39:22.500 --> 01:39:32.370 Alix: To look into them, I would urge everybody to go to the La sustainability alliance and look into the how resend it out again to look into the document that was. 789 01:39:33.120 --> 01:39:45.120 Alix: discussed and it's a working document to add to on sustainable building goals, I would say the really positive takeaway that I can share with everyone on that is that. 790 01:39:46.590 --> 01:39:55.830 Alix: The group working on this and the and the neighborhood councils are actually more interested and will accelerate maybe. 791 01:39:56.160 --> 01:40:12.390 Alix: Maybe Corinne will agree with me on this accelerate how to meet the green goals for la more so than what the city is doing and I think that's a really emotional second that she was there I think that's a really positive achievement our planets on fire. 792 01:40:14.730 --> 01:40:16.080 Alix: anything to say on that British. 793 01:40:16.530 --> 01:40:21.720 Mehrnoosh: I yeah I agree i'm still still waiting to get that report and read more detail. 794 01:40:22.890 --> 01:40:24.630 Mehrnoosh: It was interesting that last time. 795 01:40:25.140 --> 01:40:25.740 Alix: And mchale. 796 01:40:25.800 --> 01:40:39.990 Alix: Just sustainability mchale and I see Jim on the call to just so you all know, this is a working document so if there are additional suggestions to go into this document, they can be sent out. 797 01:40:41.070 --> 01:40:42.600 Alix: To people so. 798 01:40:44.070 --> 01:40:59.190 Alix: that's that's just worth noting, I would imagine like despite our different points of views on on land use, I think we're all in consensus that we need to work towards a more sustainable future for. 799 01:40:59.220 --> 01:41:00.630 Michael Jensen: No, no argument there. 800 01:41:01.020 --> 01:41:01.620 Alix: No, though. 801 01:41:02.550 --> 01:41:03.060 Mehrnoosh: So. 802 01:41:03.630 --> 01:41:10.200 Alix: So yeah it's really interesting and, by the way, a really interesting conversation about new building materials. 803 01:41:10.620 --> 01:41:18.630 Alix: That had been used in Europe for six or seven years and they're just getting approved here that are fully sustainable and fireproof so that was really exciting. 804 01:41:19.290 --> 01:41:38.760 Alix: To start to be such a geek about this stuff and, lastly, one of the things we need to get into this this the next you know couple of months is our land use and our LCP Sir, I think I mentioned this, our LCP and our civic plan in our Community plan update. 805 01:41:39.960 --> 01:41:50.820 Alix: it's a little bit of a convoluted process at the moment and I would welcome if everybody would think about this and think about how we best see fit to to. 806 01:41:52.290 --> 01:42:13.020 Alix: work through this i've talked to some of the different Community groups and that go from a wide range of wide scope of beliefs, and I think the consensus, I hear is that they don't always feel Lou Pack and the dnc our representative are representing their. 807 01:42:14.700 --> 01:42:22.590 Alix: The views of the Community are really serving the interests of the Community, so I know there's a multiplicity of thoughts. 808 01:42:23.160 --> 01:42:37.110 Alix: in Venice and it's a really difficult task, but I think we do need to figure out how we want to do this, so I welcome and how we really make sure the Community feels included and welcomed in the process, so I would love it everybody. 809 01:42:38.250 --> 01:42:39.840 Alix: um reached out. 810 01:42:46.200 --> 01:42:51.060 Alix: Anything else Chris and Corinne any questions on. 811 01:42:52.590 --> 01:42:56.910 Alix: process procedure moving forward. 812 01:42:58.080 --> 01:43:00.600 Alix: Are we clear on like the new format of. 813 01:43:02.130 --> 01:43:05.790 Alix: motion that I can't move our second motions. 814 01:43:08.250 --> 01:43:15.360 Chris Plourde: i'm clear on everything and just so we're so we're clear it's not new to me it's all new to me. 815 01:43:17.490 --> 01:43:22.320 Chris Plourde: Right so i'm not confused by how we do things. 816 01:43:23.580 --> 01:43:31.890 Chris Plourde: anymore that i'm confused by everything, this is the given it's kind of like a smartphone for my niece. 817 01:43:33.900 --> 01:43:35.130 Chris Plourde: it's always been there. 818 01:43:36.750 --> 01:43:43.050 Alix: And I guess one last question does everybody know Jason Douglas and bonbons office know. 819 01:43:44.130 --> 01:43:44.820 Alix: So. 820 01:43:46.080 --> 01:43:51.240 Alix: I will send an email introducing everybody to him he's planning and bonds office. 821 01:43:51.780 --> 01:44:00.150 Alix: You know, he doesn't you know I wouldn't go at him and bother him with every single like question and complaint, you have but on like high level. 822 01:44:00.960 --> 01:44:19.800 Alix: High Level issues he can be very, very helpful so just know that's out there if you're working with a with a with a planner on a case I do it all the time, you know, and you have a question call the planner email the planner they're always happy to do calls with you and to talk to you. 823 01:44:20.910 --> 01:44:25.140 Alix: Their emails are always there first name dot last name at La city.org. 824 01:44:26.280 --> 01:44:28.200 Alix: So that's fairly straightforward. 825 01:44:30.090 --> 01:44:32.220 Mehrnoosh: looks which is naming and Jason what. 826 01:44:32.370 --> 01:44:33.630 Alix: Jason Douglas. 827 01:44:33.990 --> 01:44:35.190 Alix: Douglas okay yeah. 828 01:44:36.570 --> 01:44:53.970 Alix: You know and and I just want to say, like I know there's been a lot of animosity towards the councilman in the Community and Jason is really a stellar stellar resource and you know I would urge you to put like any biases aside and get to know him. 829 01:45:03.210 --> 01:45:05.550 Alix: Anything else from anyone. 830 01:45:09.600 --> 01:45:11.100 Alix: No, no. 831 01:45:12.060 --> 01:45:15.480 Chris Plourde: Jim jim's hand has been up for the last hour. 832 01:45:16.290 --> 01:45:17.550 Michael Jensen: Do you need something good. 833 01:45:19.740 --> 01:45:29.220 james murez: yeah I mean there's a whole bunch of things that were said that are need to be clarified, but I can do that in writing to you, along with the city, if you prefer, I can explain it now. 834 01:45:30.810 --> 01:45:32.280 Alix: i'm sure Jim go ahead. 835 01:45:32.640 --> 01:45:39.450 james murez: Okay, so for starters, let me quickly share my screen, so these people have a better understanding of what you're talking about. 836 01:45:44.520 --> 01:45:45.570 james murez: Can you all see that. 837 01:45:47.130 --> 01:45:47.760 Alix: Yes. 838 01:45:47.910 --> 01:45:53.340 james murez: Okay, so that's the cmc report, this is a report that's published by the Department of city planning. 839 01:45:54.060 --> 01:45:57.960 james murez: This report lists all of the cases it's published every two weeks. 840 01:45:58.440 --> 01:46:16.500 james murez: To to subscribe to it they're not just going to send it to you, although that's what lead leaks alluded to, you have to go to the city planning website, which is planning la city.org and i'll repeat that planning la city.org and you sign up for it it's called early notification it's. 841 01:46:19.140 --> 01:46:20.160 james murez: All down to a. 842 01:46:20.430 --> 01:46:21.270 james murez: gym and. 843 01:46:21.450 --> 01:46:26.340 james murez: Go to the section then Dennis him you're interrupting he said I could speak. 844 01:46:27.720 --> 01:46:42.510 Alix: Jim just a correction I didn't lose the things would be sent, I said that i've asked and gone to city planning myself to try and add the emails in and haven't successfully been able to do it, but I could send out my own copies of this. 845 01:46:43.050 --> 01:46:46.440 james murez: you're interrupting you want me to finish your you want it, you want to continue to speak. 846 01:46:48.870 --> 01:46:51.330 james murez: You got to decide, because i'm happy to write it all up. 847 01:46:51.600 --> 01:46:52.620 Alix: Please finish Jim. 848 01:46:52.650 --> 01:46:53.880 Alix: Just don't misquote me. 849 01:46:55.080 --> 01:46:57.990 james murez: We can go back and listen to the video, if you like, I don't really care. 850 01:47:00.540 --> 01:47:11.340 james murez: um the point being that, on the report there's a Council district that's shown right here in this column and there's also an nc. 851 01:47:11.910 --> 01:47:21.900 james murez: Which at this point, this one right here says it's unknown So these are cases that are unknown they don't know what, but if you if you do a control APP and you type in Venice it brings you right up to. 852 01:47:22.680 --> 01:47:39.090 james murez: The part where it says Venice and that's right here, Venice neighborhood Council Okay, and this report, which comes out every two weeks has all of the basic information, you need to start a case, if you click on the link that's in here, and you could certainly bring up here. 853 01:47:40.320 --> 01:47:46.140 james murez: avid Kenny, you could click on that and would bring it up in the browser directly to the city site. 854 01:47:46.710 --> 01:47:52.290 james murez: it's really easy to do you want to see the documents that were submitted there over here now if there's no documents that were submitted. 855 01:47:52.830 --> 01:48:04.050 james murez: there's another legal requirement that everybody that sends in the supplies for a project, but one thing that they all have to do is submit a hard copy set. 856 01:48:04.530 --> 01:48:14.400 james murez: up all of these documents, so if the city hasn't scanned it yet as soon as the project is entered into the system, meaning as soon as they assign it a case number. 857 01:48:15.810 --> 01:48:30.270 james murez: They send out to the neighborhood Council a complete copy of all of the documents, the application and any project plans anything that they were anything that was submitted gets sent out to the neighborhood Council ELISE has over 20 of those. 858 01:48:31.050 --> 01:48:40.230 james murez: In her possession at this time, and this is the actual correct legal copy as far as the planning departments concerned. 859 01:48:40.800 --> 01:48:46.890 james murez: This is the official legal set map there's revisions made that's another story, but if you ask the applicant. 860 01:48:47.820 --> 01:48:52.140 james murez: For a copy of the drawings, because you don't want to take the time to scan them in and they're not in the system, yet. 861 01:48:52.830 --> 01:48:59.070 james murez: You have to compare whatever they give you to that official legal copy to know that you have the correct set. 862 01:48:59.550 --> 01:49:08.520 james murez: Because they're not on the city's website so you don't know what drawings they're giving you and that's really important because they could very easily be giving you something that's completely different. 863 01:49:09.390 --> 01:49:25.290 james murez: The next thing I want to say is all projects when they get posted on to the agenda have to have three documents they have to have this first application, which is the document that that brings the case on to the books, so to speak. 864 01:49:27.000 --> 01:49:41.640 james murez: This is the city planning document mchale showed it earlier it's very important that you understand that that's an important document because it does have all the information that's one of the documents that has to be presented to the public, before you can have your agenda. 865 01:49:42.960 --> 01:49:51.480 james murez: The next one is the set of project plans very important project plans are there now if there's findings to happen to have been published those should also be included. 866 01:49:51.810 --> 01:49:59.310 james murez: But the project plans have to go up with the with the case when it goes on the agenda, the public Aspen know what it is you guys are considering. 867 01:50:00.180 --> 01:50:07.800 james murez: And the third thing is the draft staff report which, as Michelle said it's always a draft because anything that happens in the hearing has to be updated later. 868 01:50:09.510 --> 01:50:21.750 james murez: That being said, all of those documents which he showed in his video, and I am going to cut that video down a leak, so you can have just the part where he trained everybody as a separate short video i'll do that for you. 869 01:50:25.080 --> 01:50:29.790 james murez: All of the documents that he showed, you were on his Google drive that's his personal Google drive. 870 01:50:30.690 --> 01:50:40.710 james murez: By the time the project gets put on to the dnc website and the agenda is being posted understand that ELISE has to move all of those documents into the dnc domain. 871 01:50:41.370 --> 01:50:48.840 james murez: Because we don't have control over my skills or anybody else's dropbox or or Google drive and it has to be within the public domain. 872 01:50:48.840 --> 01:50:54.960 Michael Jensen: For the record, that is my Venice neighborhood Council Google drive but yes, it is the personal one for that. 873 01:50:55.230 --> 01:50:56.220 james murez: that's fine. 874 01:50:57.000 --> 01:50:58.440 james murez: I mean, let me, let me just finish. 875 01:50:58.650 --> 01:51:11.130 james murez: So so everybody understands there's one extra step that ELISE has to go through which is you know a little that's why she was talking about the 15 megabytes you could put a much larger file than that in your Google drive, but you couldn't put a much larger file on the dnc site. 876 01:51:12.270 --> 01:51:15.120 james murez: The next thing I wanted to touch on all these letters up here. 877 01:51:16.200 --> 01:51:22.920 james murez: that are part of the case number I guess you guys can all see that this breaks down into something that says this is how the project is being reviewed. 878 01:51:23.400 --> 01:51:34.890 james murez: it's a group of acronyms that are published by the city, the Department of city planning has a whole list of them leaks, if you don't have them on the loot pack website, yet you might want to add them there, I think that that's a. 879 01:51:36.210 --> 01:51:43.860 james murez: very useful thing to understand that an SP is or a CDP these things mean things, and when you understand what they mean you understand. 880 01:51:44.220 --> 01:51:52.200 james murez: The course that this project is going to take through the city like she mentioned earlier, that if one of them was mellow the M e l. 881 01:51:52.620 --> 01:51:56.280 james murez: And that would say that there's a particular planning process that has to be cleared. 882 01:51:56.520 --> 01:52:04.380 james murez: And that's something that you should know about you should understand what me all means, and then you would know so there's a whole bunch of those and they're all described in the dictionary that they have. 883 01:52:05.430 --> 01:52:07.200 james murez: and the last thing that I wanted to say. 884 01:52:08.790 --> 01:52:23.130 james murez: There should be no reason that a case is not complete, by the time it goes up 72 hours before the hearing, and the reason that I say, that is from the date that this project was filed. 885 01:52:23.850 --> 01:52:36.960 james murez: which it says, right here was 826 21 before they have the hearing down here on this column probably somewhere between three to four months are going to go by. 886 01:52:37.830 --> 01:52:46.410 james murez: that's plenty of time for Lou pack to look at the case and make a decision about what's supposed to happen. 887 01:52:47.160 --> 01:52:58.800 james murez: So I bring these things up so everybody knows where we're coming from, we want to be as open and transparent as possible in all of the things that we are doing. 888 01:52:59.580 --> 01:53:06.810 james murez: And that includes starting from the cmc report which everybody can subscribe to, and. 889 01:53:07.680 --> 01:53:19.380 james murez: posting these things is complete very concise staff report needs to be pointing to the actual documents that are posted on the loop pack website so everybody has public access to them. 890 01:53:20.280 --> 01:53:34.500 james murez: We want this stuff to be very, very, very transparent so mchale when your staff report shows that the documents are in your Google drive a leak has to give you an updated file that you can put into your document right before your document gets posted life. 891 01:53:35.550 --> 01:53:35.850 james murez: well. 892 01:53:37.020 --> 01:53:45.720 Alix: On my agenda before you even like the staff report will be hyperlinked in my agenda, but all the documents in their proper place will be hyperlinked. 893 01:53:46.530 --> 01:53:51.120 james murez: yeah if they're if they're in the staff report, they need to be hyperlink to the correct place. 894 01:53:52.320 --> 01:53:54.600 Alix: Okay, Macau, you know I talk about that offline. 895 01:53:54.630 --> 01:54:03.600 james murez: If they're not in the staff report, then they don't have to be hyperlink they just have to be hyperlinked on the agenda that's fine, but they have to be included someplace. 896 01:54:04.860 --> 01:54:15.840 james murez: And then, which what what i'm saying is is that by the time this thing gets sent to city planning, the idea is that the planner looks at a document. 897 01:54:16.410 --> 01:54:27.330 james murez: And when it says approved as presented, they can click on something and see what it was, we were talking about and they don't have to go searching. 898 01:54:27.780 --> 01:54:37.020 james murez: For Venice neighborhood Council what's that I gotta go look on their website to try and find something that was on an agenda from two months ago it we want it to be as. 899 01:54:37.020 --> 01:54:39.600 james murez: complete as possible we want it to be as informative. 900 01:54:39.810 --> 01:54:45.690 james murez: We want the history to show a complete collection of information. 901 01:54:46.830 --> 01:54:57.510 james murez: Does that make sense to everybody, yes, great if anybody has any questions you're always welcome to reach out and say hello, even if he doesn't want to I am President, and my doors are always open. 902 01:54:58.140 --> 01:55:00.240 Alix: gym that's not what I said. 903 01:55:02.700 --> 01:55:09.090 Alix: And one last thing I have been told by the Department of neighborhood empowerment that. 904 01:55:10.890 --> 01:55:27.570 Alix: Everybody is going to have to do, land use training mikael I think you did it last last term I think I did to actually I know I did I don't know if we're going to have to retake it but we're still waiting to hear what the I can't hear you Macau. 905 01:55:28.830 --> 01:55:46.080 Michael Jensen: Oh, here we go um I, so I actually took this before it was a requirement for the nc just to kind of get get some education on it, but then I took it again, I think, in October of 2020 Friday says i'm good. 906 01:55:46.740 --> 01:55:48.330 Alix: I also did the ethics today. 907 01:55:48.840 --> 01:55:49.170 Alix: And I. 908 01:55:49.260 --> 01:55:51.810 Michael Jensen: said i'm good so far so. 909 01:55:51.930 --> 01:55:53.160 Michael Jensen: I don't think I have to take it again. 910 01:55:53.370 --> 01:55:59.040 Alix: I don't think you have to take it, but i'm telling you guys and i'm you know once I have the word from done. 911 01:56:00.540 --> 01:56:01.350 Alix: There will be. 912 01:56:02.490 --> 01:56:19.950 Alix: A planning
