[0:01] understanding that each
[0:03] neighborhood kind of was
[0:04] responsible for the design of
[0:07] their own lamps. In order to
[0:10] represent the neighborhood. So
[0:11] there's an enormous diversity of
[0:14] style and artisanal qualities to
[0:17] all of these. That's right.
[0:18] That's right. And what we have
[0:20] now is a unique collection of
[0:21] over 400 different designs and
[0:26] that's spread throughout the
[0:28] 470mi■!S of the city, right. And
[0:30] it pretty much, as you said,
[0:31] kind of grew up with the city,
[0:34] different neighborhoods as they
[0:35] would rise and they would want
[0:36] street lights. They would design
[0:37] their own. So you have Wilshire
[0:39] specials, you would have things
[0:40] like the Broadway special,
[0:41] Hollywood Special, Van Nuys
[0:44] Special. So there's just
[0:45] different ones that the
[0:47] neighborhoods would kind of
[0:47] adopt. And say, this is the one
[0:49] that we wanted. I think they
[0:50] could legitimately be called Art
[0:53] . I mean, some of them have
[0:54] turned into art pieces.
[0:55] Obviously. I think most people
[0:57] know urban light, which is in
[0:58] front of LACMA. Are there other
[1:00] art installations that have been
[1:03] done with former practical
[1:06] lights that are now not
[1:07] practical, but still worth our
[1:09] attention? Yes Sheila Klein's
[1:11] for Monica. That actually shows
[1:13] the progression time,
[1:14] progression of all the different
[1:15] street lights. With all of the
[1:22] diversity of street lamps to
[1:24] choose from, what is as the
[1:27] executive director, your
[1:28] favorite? Well, if you're going
[1:30] to put me on the spot like that,
[1:31] I would say the Wilshire Special
[1:35] that we have is an amazing
[1:37] piece. Again, just because kind
[1:39] of hearkens back to that origin
[1:40] of us. And it's huge. You would
[1:45] never expect we have them in the
[1:46] field right now. You would never
[1:48] expect that while you're walking
[1:49] on a sidewalk, there's this five
[1:51] foot tall you know, two foot
[1:54] wide like gargantuan streetlight
[1:56] . When you when you have it next
[1:58] to you, it's that big, right?
[2:00] But when it's up there, it just
[2:01] looks like any other street
[2:03] light. Not to say nondescript,
[2:03] but, you know, like, unassuming,
[2:05] kind of light that has a great
[2:07] history. One of the things that
[2:17] most people don't know about the
[2:18] beer, street lighting. We're one
[2:20] of the largest municipal
[2:21] deployments of EV chargers on
[2:23] the right of way. I was going to
[2:25] ask you so about about 700, will
[2:27] we expect to have about 900 by
[2:29] the end of this fiscal year? And
[2:30] those are great opportunities
[2:33] for us to ensure that we are
[2:35] approaching transportation
[2:37] electrification in an equitable
[2:39] way. And is it being rolled out
[2:41] in certain neighborhoods as you
[2:44] said, you were looking for an
[2:45] equitable solution to something
[2:46] like this, when EV chargers may
[2:48] not be able to go into a
[2:50] neighborhood that had the
[2:52] resources for it, so is it
[2:54] specific? We're looking for
[2:55] existing markets and hoping to
[2:57] create emerging markets. What I
[2:59] mean by that is we're going to
[3:00] places where there have been
[3:01] requests, high demand, where
[3:03] we've placed chargers, we're
[3:04] looking at our analytics and
[3:06] seeing should we place another
[3:07] one close by right. In order for
[3:08] people to have more usage. But
[3:10] we're also trying to get into
[3:11] places that we don't necessarily
[3:14] see. What I would say the
[3:17] private sector. So we're trying
[3:18] to go into places like Hyde
[3:22] Park, right? Like, um, South LA,
[3:25] like the Valley, right? So get
[3:28] away from just what
[3:30] traditionally people would
[3:31] think. That is not just a
[3:33] privilege to have. That's
[3:34] something that we should all
[3:35] have. Are we ahead of the game
[3:41] when it comes to technology and
[3:43] advancements? For something like
[3:45] the Bureau of Street Lighting or
[3:47] are we looking to other cities
[3:48] to see how they are doing it and
[3:50] then following suit? When you
[3:51] look at the world as a whole,
[3:54] there's obviously going to be
[3:55] some places that might do things
[3:57] better here or there. And
[3:58] different types of technology on
[4:01] average, though, I'd say LA is
[4:02] on on the cutting edge, the
[4:04] further further ahead than the
[4:06] pack. And I'll say this for a
[4:07] couple of things. There's a
[4:09] reason why we became one of the
[4:10] first 5G cities in America. And
[4:12] that's because we started
[4:13] attaching telecom equipment to
[4:14] our street lights. Right? And so
[4:16] we made something that was
[4:18] originally a single use. Now,
[4:20] granted, that single use was
[4:21] transformative. We lit public
[4:23] spaces and made it so people can
[4:26] congregate, have commerce, made
[4:27] it feel safer right? But the
[4:29] service was the street light.
[4:31] Now we're adding other things
[4:32] that not only reduce the cost of
[4:35] infrastructure itself, but make
[4:37] it so that there's new services
[4:38] that can go on to the city, like
[4:41] 5G connectivity. Right So LA
[4:43] became one of the first 5G
[4:44] cities in America back in 20, I
[4:45] believe 2017, 2018. And that's
[4:49] because we started working
[4:50] together with industry
[4:52] practitioners to see what else
[4:54] we could do. Very very cool. All
[5:03] right. So you've worked with the
[5:04] City for a long time. I mean,
[5:06] you've worked in the mayor's
[5:08] office, you know, through a
[5:08] couple of tenures of different
[5:10] mayors. And now now you're here
[5:11] and you've been here. What was
[5:12] the biggest surprise coming into
[5:15] this bureau when you looked
[5:17] around and saw what your
[5:19] opportunities were and what your
[5:20] challenges were, the scope of
[5:22] the Bureau, the opportunities in
[5:24] the Bureau, the history, the fun
[5:28] , the possibility. What was it
[5:30] that you really went, oh, wow,
[5:33] this is cool. What what? I was
[5:35] most impressed with was the
[5:39] people when I came in here
[5:41] because of their willingness to
[5:43] actually try new things and
[5:45] because of the people, we have
[5:48] tremendous potential. Right So
[5:50] when we're talking about these
[5:52] new technologies, these, um,
[5:55] more efficient ways to light the
[5:58] streets, we're we're talking
[5:59] about connectivity with telecom
[6:01] partners. We're talking about
[6:04] dynamic lighting, we're talking
[6:06] about air quality sensors that
[6:07] can help inform a policymakers
[6:11] about what's going on in their
[6:13] neighborhoods right now. Right.
[6:14] So the people actually led to
[6:17] some of these progressions,
[6:19] right? These new things and
[6:21] these opportunities that we have
[6:22] and so the Bureau itself, with
[6:25] what it has, again, a quarter of
[6:27] a million streetlights, an
[6:29] electrical system, this
[6:30] penultimate electrical system
[6:31] that when we're thinking about
[6:32] the future of the city is going
[6:35] to empower a lot of the new
[6:37] services that we do now, we
[6:38] actually see ourselves now more
[6:39] of a platform. Right? So yes, we
[6:41] have the street light, but
[6:44] there's many different things
[6:45] that you can attach to it.
[6:47] Right? There's many different
[6:48] services that you can kind of,
[6:49] uh, create from, from that point
[6:54] there where, where we have a
[6:55] very valuable piece of real
[6:58] estate on the public right of
[6:59] way that has energy. Well,
[7:01] people want to learn more about
[7:03] the 100th anniversary or just
[7:05] about how to call in if they
[7:06] need some help with the lighting
[7:08] on their streets or just have
[7:09] any questions. What's the best
[7:11] way for people to get in touch?
[7:12] The best way for people to get
[7:14] in touch? Well, two things
[7:15] right. If there's any issues
[7:16] that you have with Street
[7:18] lighting, please log your
[7:19] service requests with mile 311
[7:22] or call 311 itself for all other
[7:24] things. And if you're
[7:25] inquisitive about our history,
[7:26] please visit LA lights Dot la
[7:28] City.org. Thank you so much.
[7:32] This is really, really fun. And
[7:34] that's a wrap on this LA
[7:36] currents.
[8:22] Hello everyone. I'm Natalia
[8:24] Bilbao and I'm here at the
[8:25] historic Watts Towers Arts
[8:27] Center campus. A place that much
[8:28] like Los Angeles itself, stands
[8:31] as a testament to creativity,
[8:33] resilience, and community.
[8:34] Welcome to LA. This week. More
[8:45] than six decades ago, Doctor
[8:46] Martin Luther King Jr stood
[8:48] before a nation at the March on
[8:50] Washington and shared a dream,
[8:52] one rooted in justice, equality
[8:53] and hope. This week in South Los
[8:56] Angeles, that dream continued to
[8:57] echo through the streets, as
[8:59] Mayor Karen Bass, City Council
[9:00] members and thousands of
[9:02] Angelenos came together to honor
[9:03] Doctor King's legacy and to
[9:06] reaffirm a commitment to keep
[9:07] his vision alive for future
[9:09] generations.
[9:19] This is a time for us to
[9:21] certainly celebrate the life and
[9:22] legacy of Doctor Martin Luther
[9:24] King, and we're reminded every
[9:26] day about the values the
[9:28] principles that he died. And he
[9:30] fought for. We celebrate MLK
[9:31] every year here in Los Angeles,
[9:33] but this year is special because
[9:34] we're in a fight and we're
[9:36] fighting over all the things
[9:37] that Martin Luther King stood
[9:39] for. So freedom to work and
[9:40] freedom to be in your home and
[9:43] freedom to walk the streets as a
[9:43] human being, to not be targeted
[9:45] because of how you talk or how
[9:47] you look. Those are things that
[9:49] Doctor King left to us, that we
[9:51] got to fight to make sure we
[9:52] leave to the next generation.
[9:55] I've never been. So it's my
[9:57] first time Martin Luther King is
[9:59] kind of cool because he helped
[10:01] black people and white people
[10:02] come together as one. So it's
[10:04] kind of cool to see that this
[10:05] day means a lot. You know, I
[10:07] think there's an effort being
[10:09] done to erase days like this.
[10:12] And I think it's important to
[10:13] show up to events like this. So
[10:14] it can't be erased. We're all
[10:19] equal and we're all trying to
[10:20] enjoy the day. Sunny day with
[10:24] MLK. It's important.
[10:26] Especialmente en Los tiempos.
[10:28] Estamos viviendo la division. Si
[10:32] creado queremos siga escuchando
[10:34] esta voz de apoyo para la gente
[10:37] de color. Q ha estado luchando
[10:40] por décadas y creemos. Qué es
[10:42] importante continua para Los Los
[10:44] vienen la generacion Q sigue?
[10:46] There's so much divide and hate
[10:49] today and all he preached about
[10:50] was love and union. We're all
[10:52] humans. We're all here on this
[10:55] planet at the same time, in the
[10:56] same life. It's important that
[11:00] we all work together to bring a
[11:02] sense of peace. Life is hard
[11:04] enough. And if we lean on each
[11:05] other, we can make it so much
[11:07] easier. When we begin to talk
[11:11] about what we're faced with in
[11:13] the headlines, with immigration
[11:14] rights and everything like that
[11:16] at the epicenter of all the
[11:18] Doctor King's advocacies were
[11:19] advancing full citizenship
[11:21] rights. We have the right to
[11:24] protest via the Constitution.
[11:25] And so when we disagree with
[11:28] government, then we can
[11:29] peacefully protest. And that was
[11:30] the foundation of his work. I
[11:32] think it's important that people
[11:34] be able to look back and kind of
[11:36] see how we were able to move
[11:38] without causing a lot of
[11:39] hostility and violence and still
[11:41] get our point across and move us
[11:42] to where we are now. He had no
[11:50] fear. He had courage. And that
[11:52] is a role model for all of us,
[11:55] regardless of our ethnicities,
[11:56] to attack racism in whatever
[11:59] form it is. That's why I believe
[12:01] that this holiday is very
[12:02] important, especially now with
[12:03] the current administration. We
[12:05] are certainly experiencing some
[12:06] real challenges from our federal
[12:08] government, and it's important
[12:09] that we come together as a
[12:11] community and stand in
[12:13] solidarity with each other.
[12:16] We've got so many great
[12:17] movements in Southern California
[12:19] , whether it's the peace patrols
[12:20] that helps tell people where Ice
[12:22] is going to be to everyday
[12:24] people who are saying, you can
[12:25] come to our church and we'll
[12:26] help you out. Those are the
[12:28] kinds of things that people can
[12:29] do and are doing here in LA. The
[12:31] state of the world. While it has
[12:33] changed, nothing has changed.
[12:35] Um, it's been many, many years.
[12:37] And how many of its teachings
[12:38] can still be applied today? I
[12:40] think a lot what the legacy is.
[12:41] What a service. What of
[12:43] commitment. And one of not
[12:44] giving up. And really, at the
[12:46] end of the day, it's about
[12:47] loving humanity. Love one
[12:49] another. Y'all We must always
[12:50] remember Doctor Martin Luther
[12:52] King Jr. Change is taking place
[12:59] in South Los Angeles, where the
[13:02] revitalization of Jordan Downs
[13:02] is bringing new life to a long
[13:05] standing community. As older
[13:06] housing makes way for new,
[13:07] modern units, city leaders and
[13:10] developers are keeping a
[13:10] critical promise that progress
[13:12] will not come at the cost of
[13:14] displacement.
[13:26] We are in the heart of Watts at
[13:28] Jordan Downs, and we're here
[13:31] today to celebrate the
[13:32] completion of another phase of
[13:34] our Jordan Downs revitalization
[13:36] Cyprus view. And it's 119 units
[13:39] of beautiful housing. Jordan
[13:41] Downs is a traditional public
[13:44] housing community of just over
[13:47] 700 units built in the 1950s and
[13:49] over time grew dilapidated. Not
[13:52] enough federal investment and so
[13:54] we started conversations with
[13:56] this neighborhood about
[13:58] redeveloping and really
[13:59] reimagining what this community
[14:01] would look like from the
[14:03] beginning. We said to the
[14:05] residents of this community that
[14:06] the redevelopment would not lead
[14:09] to any displacement and this is
[14:12] a promise that we've kept.
[14:14] Bridge housing has been around
[14:16] for 40 plus years now and has
[14:18] been 100% committed to providing
[14:20] affordable housing, coming into
[14:22] communities of need like this
[14:24] being able to guide it to the
[14:26] point that it is right now,
[14:28] that's that's special. El Nido
[14:30] has been around for 100 years.
[14:31] We provide a lot of supportive
[14:33] services in the community. You
[14:34] know, we could open up these new
[14:36] facilities, but if families get
[14:37] into trouble and they lose their
[14:39] housing because they lost their
[14:41] job, because they got injured,
[14:44] because they need counseling,
[14:46] for example, we have the Ice
[14:47] raids. Some families can't go to
[14:48] work because of that. There's so
[14:49] many things going on. So making
[14:52] sure that the families are
[14:53] connected to the resources
[14:55] that's going to support them and
[14:56] ensure that they're able to stay
[14:58] in their housing is very, very
[15:00] important. Este es un compromiso
[15:02] hicimos a esta comunidad de qué
[15:05] vamos a traer vivienda digna.
[15:07] Vivienda de calidad. Vamos a
[15:10] crear mas parques. Entonces hoy
[15:12] también celebramos el nuevo
[15:14] Parque Pearl Park y la vision de
[15:15] esta comunidad. Es Q watts tenga
[15:20] las humanidades Q cualquier otra
[15:21] comunidad en Los Angeles. Tenga
[15:25] our history of legacy adjourned
[15:27] down has been demolished. And so
[15:29] part of us to. So I've been
[15:32] living here 46 years. Really all
[15:34] my life that process is
[15:38] emotional. It has a bittersweet
[15:39] moment because it's my heritage
[15:42] as well. Has been demolished. A
[15:44] lot of heartfelt moments when
[15:46] you give birth to your kids and
[15:48] your mom raised you there. So to
[15:49] transform from there to here is
[15:51] been a challenge mentally. But
[15:53] now that I'm here, it's more
[15:55] because I'm older now, it's more
[15:57] my speed. It's I can walk around
[15:59] the park. I love to do that. I
[16:01] love to sit on my porch and read
[16:02] a book or sew or just take it
[16:04] all in. And then just my
[16:06] bathroom is my therapy. It's my
[16:09] sanctuary. So the help of
[16:11] counseling therapy therapists
[16:14] and people coaching you need it
[16:16] can do it by yourself. I grew up
[16:20] in this community. I remember
[16:22] the challenges that were here in
[16:25] 1965, and to see the
[16:26] transformation, it makes my
[16:28] heart feel good to see the
[16:30] families are starting to get the
[16:32] resources, services and the type
[16:35] of facilities they deserve. I
[16:37] think it's so important, you
[16:38] know, when we in government
[16:41] begin these efforts and these
[16:44] initiatives, they really have to
[16:46] be centered on people and their
[16:47] dreams and aspirations. The
[16:50] residents. Right. They were here
[16:51] . They were cheering. They were
[16:52] celebrating. And that's the
[16:55] barometer that we are on the
[16:56] right track. But men and women
[17:05] who run toward danger are asking
[17:07] Angelenos for support. The
[17:09] United Firefighters of Los
[17:10] Angeles City are currently
[17:11] gathering signatures for a
[17:13] November ballot initiative.
[17:14] Their proposal, a half cent
[17:17] sales tax aimed at funding new
[17:18] fire stations and upgrading
[17:20] equipment. We're here today
[17:24] because we kicked off our
[17:26] campaign for our ballot measure
[17:27] to fund LA fire Department. This
[17:29] is a perfect example of a fire
[17:31] station in the city of Los
[17:33] Angeles that is downsized. We
[17:35] are not adequately staffed and
[17:37] resourced to serve the needs of
[17:39] our community. They used to have
[17:42] two engines and a truck inside
[17:44] this fire station, and now we
[17:46] only have an engine. We cut a
[17:48] truck and an engine out of this
[17:50] fire station. In 2011. 15 years
[17:52] later, we haven't got it back.
[17:54] LAFD has been woefully
[17:56] underfunded. I came on the job
[17:58] in 1992 and we have less
[18:00] firefighters today than we did
[18:03] in 1992, and it's a shame
[18:07] because this is a ballot measure
[18:09] that we are gathering signatures
[18:10] to get on the November ballot.
[18:12] It's a half cent sales tax
[18:13] increase that will raise funds
[18:16] dedicated to building and
[18:17] maintaining fire stations and
[18:19] adding staffing and equipment
[18:20] here in the city of LA from
[18:23] Angelenos. What we need right
[18:24] now is signatures. Signatures
[18:27] signatures in order to qualify
[18:28] to get on the ballot for
[18:30] November of 2026. There's
[18:33] signature gatherers that will be
[18:34] in front of your grocery stores,
[18:35] in front of other facilities.
[18:37] Please sign the petition and
[18:38] help support the lAFD. We urge
[18:42] everybody to sign the petition.
[18:43] Have your friends have your
[18:45] neighbors sign it. This is going
[18:46] to be an all hands on deck
[18:49] effort for the next few months.
[18:53] This is a ballot initiative that
[18:54] is being led directly by our
[18:56] firefighters themselves, not
[18:58] City Hall. It's money that
[18:59] cannot be used for other
[19:02] purposes, and it finally makes
[19:03] an investment in dragging our
[19:06] public safety resources into a
[19:08] modern century. We're going to
[19:12] more fires, going to more
[19:13] medicals. Our our calls have
[19:16] gone from 100,000 to 500,000
[19:19] from 1960 to this year. We're
[19:20] going on more runs. We need more
[19:22] resources. We're short staffed.
[19:23] We're shorthanded. It's like the
[19:25] Dodgers playing baseball with
[19:27] eight people on the field
[19:29] instead of nine, can still play
[19:31] the game, but you're not as
[19:32] effective. In South Central, Los
[19:37] Angeles, a long awaited green
[19:39] space is now open, and it's
[19:41] already bringing the community
[19:42] together. Today we are at
[19:46] Richardson Family Park. We are
[19:48] reopening the park after the
[19:50] council office spearheaded the
[19:53] complete renovation and
[19:55] modernization of the park. We
[19:55] are very pleased that the
[19:57] improvements of the park
[19:58] incorporate health and wellness
[20:01] , and also green space and a
[20:03] much needed South LA community
[20:04] in communities like South
[20:06] Central LA. You don't see a lot
[20:07] of green space and so when
[20:09] community members say we want to
[20:11] see this in our community, you
[20:12] see the what comes of that? And
[20:14] it's incredible the fact that
[20:16] young people can come and have a
[20:17] place where they feel safe. And
[20:19] even the families themselves be
[20:22] able to say, we want this and
[20:23] we're going to fight for it.
[20:24] We're going to fight for what
[20:25] our community needs and deserves
[20:26] . That's what this is. And those
[20:28] are the results and the outcome
[20:29] of that. Bueno. Yo digo, qué es
[20:32] bueno tener un parque porque
[20:33] este vienen Los ninos. La gente
[20:36] Los adultos tanto Como Los ninos
[20:37] vienen a tener diversion y mas
[20:40] en estos tiempos. También Los
[20:42] ninos tengan algo de divertirse
[20:43] en vez de las calles o hacer
[20:45] otras cosas y creo también nos
[20:46] sirve para estimular. So we
[20:50] changed out the apparatus and we
[20:52] changed out the sandboxes and
[20:53] replaced them with some more
[20:54] family friendly materials, put
[20:55] up this new fence for the
[20:58] basketball court. We're still
[20:59] going to resurface the court and
[21:00] put a mural in here. There are
[21:01] other things that still need to
[21:04] be done, but we've turned the
[21:04] place into a real community
[21:06] center and it is a center, not
[21:09] just for the kids to come and
[21:11] play, but also for the adults to
[21:12] come and learn and exercise.
[21:14] It's really exciting for the
[21:17] neighborhood to have a place
[21:18] like this where we can count
[21:20] that it's a safe space and that
[21:21] people can enjoy themselves
[21:23] without reservation. Still ahead
[21:33] , a snapshot of some of the
[21:35] stories making waves around the
[21:37] city. An international honor for
[21:38] a local star educator, a
[21:41] dedicated streetlight repair
[21:41] team, Brightening Council,

[23:34] history came to life this week
[23:37] at the Campo de Cahuenga. The
[23:39] signing of the Treaty of
[23:40] Cahuenga marked a turning point
[23:40] in the state's past, and through
[23:43] a live reenactment, that story
[23:44] is being preserved for younger
[23:46] generations. Everybody ready?
[23:48] Here we go. We're here in
[23:53] Council District two, in my
[23:55] district, celebrating the 179th
[23:58] anniversary of the signing of
[24:00] the treaty of the Campo. It
[24:02] doesn't get any more historical
[24:05] of a site than the Campo. We
[24:07] here in Los Angeles have not the
[24:11] birthplace of California, but
[24:12] the place that preceded by about
[24:15] 11 months. The birthplace of
[24:17] California. This is where Campo
[24:19] de Cahuenga is, where the treaty
[24:21] of the Campo was signed. This is
[24:23] an amazing part of history. It's
[24:26] really wonderful to have all the
[24:28] folks who are going to be doing
[24:30] the reenactment, keeping this
[24:32] history alive. General
[24:35] administrators can offer to join
[24:37] America at this time. We're just
[24:43] really here, just really just to
[24:44] celebrate the museum and all of
[24:46] its history and the history of
[24:47] California. Hey there. It's
[24:56] really important for us to
[24:58] remember the past, to learn from
[25:01] the past. Events like this are
[25:03] critical to teach younger
[25:06] generations, so they understand
[25:07] how the history of California
[25:09] came about, how California
[25:11] interacted with its indigenous
[25:13] peoples. So the Campo we're
[25:18] situated at a crossroads where a
[25:19] mountain pass meets a river ford
[25:22] and humans, as long as they've
[25:24] been in California from the
[25:25] indigenous to today, pass
[25:26] through this pass. That's why
[25:27] the armies that had been
[25:29] fighting met here to end the
[25:30] fighting and transfer.
[25:31] California And that's worth
[25:34] remembering. The motivation is
[25:36] to teach California history.
[25:37] This is the most historic site
[25:40] west of the Mississippi River
[25:42] that no one knows about. Equal
[25:44] rights and privileges are
[25:46] vouchsafed to every citizen of
[25:47] California, as are enjoyed by
[25:49] the citizens of the United
[25:51] States of North America. The
[25:53] recreation of parks just want to
[25:55] thank the Campo de Cahuenga
[25:56] Historical Museum Association,
[25:58] just really for their support
[25:59] year round. To learn more about
[26:01] our programs, please visit LA

[26:18] From Candy sculptures to a wall
[26:20] of wishes Oshogatsu the New Year
[26:23] celebrations of Japanese
[26:24] Americans brought the community
[26:25] together in little Tokyo. Today
[26:35] we're celebrating what we call
[26:37] oshogatsu in Japanese. It's the
[26:40] new Year and it's put on yearly
[26:43] by the Japanese, American
[26:44] National Museum. So this is our
[26:48] celebration of the New Year.
[26:49] It's the Japanese New Year, and
[26:51] the Japanese American New Year.
[26:52] So we have lots of activities
[26:53] and performances really geared
[26:55] towards kids. And it's
[26:56] everything from taiko
[26:58] demonstrations from kodomo
[26:59] taiko, where they're also
[27:00] pounding mochi or rice cakes. We
[27:01] have shun the Candy man. He's
[27:03] doing candy sculptures. We have
[27:04] lots of crafts that are all year
[27:06] of the horse themed and lots of
[27:08] other community partners and
[27:09] activities happening as well. I
[27:15] totally recommend coming out
[27:15] here. Enjoy the great food,
[27:17] great people. It happens every
[27:19] year. Come on down, have some
[27:20] fun. We have a variety of
[27:28] performances from local artists
[27:30] , performers and community
[27:32] members. We also have a wide
[27:33] variety of stands that you can
[27:35] visit from our America's Wish
[27:37] Wall to discover Nikkei to
[27:41] Nikkei. Progressives who have
[27:42] all come together here to share
[27:44] their resources, activities and
[27:46] different things for the
[27:47] community members to come do
[27:48] today. We're Japanese, so it's
[27:54] always kind of nice to show the
[27:57] kids, you know what our heritage
[27:58] is all about. We celebrate our
[28:01] heritage. It's a yearly thing.
[28:03] There's a lot of custom to it,
[28:06] and it brings good luck. As a
[28:13] museum, we want to keep
[28:14] upholding our history and our
[28:17] culture of, you know, Japanese
[28:19] immigrants to the present day
[28:20] Japanese American culture. So
[28:21] it's really important for us to
[28:23] keep celebrating together. My
[28:29] favorite part about these
[28:31] festivals is that you see
[28:32] families different people, all
[28:34] walks of life that come through
[28:35] here to come celebrate the
[28:37] culture to come celebrate
[28:38] community, and to be together.
[28:40] So it's a wonderful way to ring
[28:41] in the new year, and we're
[28:42] really thankful for everyone
[28:43] who's been a part of this. And
[28:44] making this happen to everyone
[28:45] who's come to celebrate with us
[28:51] . They make it look effortless,
[28:52] but staying ready to save lives
[28:54] takes grit, endurance and
[28:56] constant training. LA city
[28:58] lifeguards invited us behind the
[29:00] scenes to see the demanding
[29:02] recertification process. They
[29:03] must complete to stay on the job
[29:05] . Let's dive in. Today, we're
[29:10] here at Celeste King. We are
[29:12] hosting the 2026. We
[29:13] certifications. Behind me, we
[29:14] have our life saving staff in
[29:15] which we will be testing them
[29:17] today in their water skills. We
[29:19] will be testing them in the 500
[29:21] meter swim all swimmers, take
[29:22] your mark. Go. 500m, which is
[29:30] about 22 laps in this pool. It
[29:32] was a little bit tiring, but
[29:33] it's a good metric for people to
[29:36] swim in open water. We have to
[29:39] get in under ten minutes, so
[29:40] it's just to see that all
[29:42] lifeguards meet the requirements
[29:43] to keep lifeguarding for the
[29:45] city of Los Angeles. I think
[29:47] being a lifeguard is a great job
[29:49] because you learn a lot of water
[29:50] safety skills for dummies. So it
[29:53] does take some skill and effort
[29:55] to be able to bring out the
[29:56] dummy from the bottom of the
[29:58] pool. It does take experience
[30:00] and practice for lifeguards to
[30:02] be able to complete this event.
[30:06] Swimming is a really important
[30:07] life saving skill. I myself have
[30:08] almost drowned when I was little
[30:10] , so it was definitely a big
[30:11] motivator for me to learn how to
[30:12] swim. And I think anyone that
[30:13] has struggled in the water knows
[30:15] that fear, and it's definitely a
[30:16] good, life saving technique to
[30:18] have. I grew up swimming my
[30:19] entire life and eventually
[30:22] started helping others swim,
[30:24] teaching lessons, teaching
[30:25] programs. Finally, I started
[30:27] swimming open water and that
[30:29] changed my entire perspective on
[30:31] lifeguarding. What we do and how
[30:32] we prevent people from having a
[30:34] very unfortunate day. Anybody
[30:37] that's interested in a job
[30:38] opportunity to work with
[30:38] aquatics, they're more than
[30:40] welcome to visit any LA city
[30:41] pool there. They can find
[30:43] resources and information about
[30:44] any job opportunities that they
[30:46] have. If you want to become
[30:47] lifeguards, locker tenants or
[30:48] pool clerks, it is open to
[30:49] anybody. I came back this year
[30:53] to do another year as being a
[30:55] lifeguard for the city. I really
[30:57] think it's one of the best jobs
[30:58] out there. That's what brings me
[30:59] back every year. Because.
[31:16] Now in its 45th year, the annual
[31:20] Black Doll show at the William
[31:22] Grant Still Arts Center
[31:23] continues to inspire and educate
[31:26] . More than an exhibit, it's a
[31:28] celebration of identity,
[31:29] craftsmanship, and the power of
[31:30] representation. The Black Doll
[31:35] Show is something that goes on
[31:37] at William Grant Still Arts
[31:39] Center every year. It's been
[31:39] going on for the past 45 years.
[31:41] There's a different theme every
[31:43] year. The history is that we
[31:51] wanted to showcase dolls that
[31:53] represent people of color. There
[31:57] have always been kind of a
[31:59] stigma, and this show exhibits
[32:01] how gorgeous dolls in all colors
[32:04] are. And so we wanted to exhibit
[32:06] that and also honor the artists
[32:08] who make them. We just have a
[32:13] wonderful time showing our black
[32:14] dolls. The dolls are so unique
[32:17] in their own way. The most
[32:20] unusual, very unusual doll show
[32:24] that you'll ever see. I've been
[32:29] working here in the Cultural
[32:30] Affairs department for almost a
[32:32] year now, and now I have my own
[32:35] piece in the black Doll show. A
[32:38] lot of people don't know how
[32:40] dolls are made, and we also give
[32:42] classes after the show. So it
[32:44] gives them a chance to see how
[32:46] they're made and the variations
[32:47] of them, whether they're clay or
[32:50] cloth. This highlights community
[32:54] , especially community of color
[32:56] and so I like to be involved in
[32:59] something powerful, positive and
[33:01] beautiful. I feel honored to
[33:03] have a piece of work in this art
[33:05] show, especially since it's been
[33:07] going on for 45 years. The
[33:10] annual Black Doll show, and this
[33:12] is the first black doll I've
[33:13] ever made, and I'm just very
[33:14] happy to be a part of this show
[33:17] . You are always welcome to come
[33:19] here to the center right now we
[33:21] have the 45th Annual Black Doll
[33:23] Show. However throughout the
[33:26] year we have different exhibits
[33:27] that you can come and see.
[33:28] They're free. So don't just come
[33:32] for one art exhibit. Come
[33:34] throughout the year. If you're
[33:42] looking for something to do
[33:43] around LA, we've got you
[33:45] covered. Check out what's
[33:45] happening. This week on Things

[54:03] Concejala Park, usted tiene uno

[54:06] especial? Miembros. Bueno,
[54:09] perdón, señor Presidente. Para
[54:10] tema número nueve se llama
[54:12] Especial para comentarios para
[54:15] modificaciones. Lo están
[54:18] circulando. Bueno, el consejo

[54:48] 13 a favor. Bueno. Muy bien.
[54:57] Qué más queda? Señora
[54:59] secretaria? El Consejo quiere
[55:01] comenzar con comentario público.
[55:02] Sí, Como concejal Blumenfield,
[55:04] quiero hacer comentarios para
[55:06] uno antes de comentario público.
[55:09] Tomarlo que lo escuchamos en la
[55:11] comité. El tema número uno,
[55:12] señor Blumenfield. Muy bien.
[55:15] Gracias, colegas. Me levanto
[55:17] pidiendo su apoyo para este a
[55:19] este tema. Microtraumas y
[55:24] contenido vertical cambia como
[55:27] las audiencias consumen los
[55:28] medios. Estas historias se
[55:31] conserven en nueve 16. Muchas
[55:33] de estas producciones no
[55:36] cumplen los requerimientos para
[55:37] los créditos de estados
[55:40] presente. Esto para tener
[55:41] incentivos financieros para
[55:42] tener presupuesto más bajo en
[55:44] Los Ángeles, pero para dejar
[55:45] que esta industria sepan que
[55:48] Hollywood Los Ángeles les da la
[55:51] bienvenida. Muchos de nosotros
[55:52] tenemos inspiración de
[55:55] legislación en varios
[55:56] diferentes fuentes. A veces las
[56:00] noticias a veces son un
[56:01] constituyente colega en otra
[56:03] ciudad, muchas diferentes
[56:05] maneras y a veces miembros de
[56:07] nuestra familia. En este caso,
[56:09] yo tengo miembros de mi familia
[56:11] en el negocio de producción y
[56:14] me cansé cada. Cada escena
[56:19] escuchar cómo la industria se
[56:20] está yendo de Los Ángeles y
[56:22] todas estas cosas que podemos
[56:23] hacer. Pero sí, tratemos de
[56:25] hacer algo. Entonces mi hermano,
[56:26] quien está en esa industria,
[56:28] estaba hablando de la
[56:30] microindustria y cómo estamos
[56:32] teniendo. Mucha competición de
[56:36] otros países y estados. Es una
[56:38] parte de la industria de
[56:41] entretenimiento. Es un mercado
[56:43] de 15 mil millones de dólares.
[56:46] Y como necesitamos como una
[56:48] ciudad, hacer cargo de que
[56:49] hagamos todo para mantener esta
[56:51] industria aquí en Los Ángeles
[56:52] donde debe estar, porque
[56:54] también da de comer a otras
[56:56] cosas televisión y películas.
[57:00] El mercado, como dije, va a ser
[57:04] 15 mil millones para en dos
[57:05] años, dos meses. Hay
[57:08] producciones verticales, cada
[57:10] episodio son de 1 a 2 minutos,
[57:12] con una serie durando 20 a 100
[57:15] episodios. Me imagino que todos
[57:16] ustedes lo vieron. Es mucha
[57:18] producción que no pensamos,
[57:20] muchos trabajos y posibilidad
[57:22] seria con presupuestos menos de
[57:25] 200.000 $, producciones de
[57:27] micro drama caen debajo de el
[57:30] requerimiento para los créditos
[57:31] de impuestos y los creadores se
[57:33] están reubicando en otras
[57:35] ciudades. Le pregunté a mi
[57:36] hermano porque está siempre
[57:38] filmando en otros estados y
[57:39] otros países y esta es la razón
[57:41] por cual una encuesta demostró
[57:44] que el 78% de productores
[57:47] locales filman fuera de Los
[57:49] Ángeles, resultando en pérdida
[57:51] de trabajos y ganancias
[57:53] significativos. Es un problema
[57:54] que tenemos que arreglar.
[57:55] Entonces, qué votamos hoy?
[57:58] Estamos aquí para ayudar.
[57:59] Permisos y ayuda financiera
[58:01] para este tipo de producción.
[58:02] Tenemos que cortar la cinta
[58:04] roja y crear pases para
[58:05] permisos y ofrecer ayuda,
[58:07] porque estas son producciones
[58:08] más pequeñas y minimalistas. El
[58:10] fin de la moción es para crear
[58:12] oportunidades para ayudar con
[58:13] los creadores de contenido,
[58:15] estableciendo un programa que
[58:16] va arriba de fondos para la
[58:18] producción local de apoyo para
[58:21] programas de micro apoyo, Darle
[58:24] de comer a una generación nueva
[58:27] y nos va a ayudar en el futuro
[58:29] para ser ese centro de
[58:30] entretenimiento global que
[58:33] hemos sido y que tenemos que
[58:34] seguir siendo. Desde que
[58:36] presenté esto, escuchamos de
[58:37] varios cinematógrafos quienes
[58:40] dijeron que los microtraumas
[58:42] les dio oportunidades de
[58:45] alumnos a profesionales. Este
[58:47] tipo de contenido lo están
[58:48] haciendo y tenemos que seguir.
[58:51] El incentivo financiero va a
[58:52] ayudar estableciendo un
[58:55] programa de subsidios. Tales
[58:58] incentivos y apoyo para la
[59:00] producción para fomentar una
[59:02] generación nueva de talento. Le
[59:06] debemos a los cinematógrafos
[59:08] para sacar esto. De la sombra.
[59:13] Y esto comienza para hacer el
[59:15] análisis que necesitamos.
[59:16] Cuáles son los incentivos y
[59:18] cómo podemos específicamente
[59:21] permitir esta forma nueva de
[59:23] producción? Entonces, para eso
[59:29] yo pido su voto a favor. Muchas
[59:31] gracias señor Blumenfield. Tema
[59:32] número uno. Queda entre
[59:33] nosotros la votación. 14 a
[59:37] favor. Muy bien. Bueno, antes
[59:39] de hacer comentario público,
[59:41] quiero tomar un momento para
[59:44] reconocer. Señor Nazarian del
[59:46] segundo distrito para un
[59:48] anuncio especial en
[59:50] reconocimiento. Gracias,
[59:52] Presidente del Consejo. Y
[59:54] gracias, colegas. Quiero tomar
[59:59] un minuto ahora con lo que está
[1:00:01] pasando en Irán para hablar
[1:00:02] sobre los eventos recientes y
[1:00:05] compartir un poco de mi
[1:00:06] experiencia también. Colegas en
[1:00:11] Irán donde yo nací gente de
[1:00:13] todo el país tomaron protestas
[1:00:17] a un ambiente intolerable
[1:00:20] económico, inflación y la mano
[1:00:23] de un régimen brutal
[1:00:25] autoritario como en el pasado.
[1:00:27] El régimen respondió con
[1:00:29] brutalidad asombrante mientras
[1:00:32] hablé públicamente en otros
[1:00:35] lugares. No hablé aquí hasta
[1:00:38] hoy. Estos eventos despertaron
[1:00:42] recuerdos dolorosos de mi
[1:00:45] salida de Irán. Quiero poner
[1:00:47] estos eventos en perspectiva
[1:00:48] antes de comentárselos. Y ahora,
[1:00:53] mientras un video va a
[1:00:55] demostrar, se va deslizar en el
[1:00:57] pasado para entender los
[1:00:58] protestas en Irán. Ayuda a
[1:01:01] mirar la historia moderna
[1:01:02] política. En el 53, el
[1:01:06] ministerio primario Mohammed
[1:01:08] Mosaddegh fue sacado de Potter
[1:01:12] en un hecho de los Estados
[1:01:14] Unidos y el Reino Unido. Esto
[1:01:15] pasó después de que Mosaddegh
[1:01:17] nacionalizó la industria de
[1:01:19] petróleo que fue controlado,
[1:01:22] controlado por empresas, y
[1:01:25] después de eso, el show se puso
[1:01:27] de nuevo con apoyo de los
[1:01:30] gobiernos del Oeste. En los
[1:01:31] próximos 25 años, Irán se
[1:01:33] alineo mucho con el oeste, pero
[1:01:37] continuó a finalizar el
[1:01:40] nacionalismo de sus propios
[1:01:42] recursos de petróleo para
[1:01:44] mantener los bienes adentro y
[1:01:47] crecer su infraestructura. Pero
[1:01:49] mientras el país modernizó,
[1:01:51] muchos iraníes se quedaron
[1:01:53] excluidos del poder y se
[1:01:55] sintieron resentidos, que
[1:01:57] permitió que la influencia del
[1:02:00] Oeste penetre Irán. Y para el
[1:02:02] 78 las protestas se hicieron en
[1:02:04] Irán. Demostraciones crecieron
[1:02:06] en un año y se encontraron con
[1:02:10] violencia de los esfuerzos del
[1:02:12] Estado. Las fuerzas del Estado.
[1:02:13] En el 79 el Sol se salió del
[1:02:16] país para evitar sangre y una
[1:02:19] revolución. Trajo ayatolá
[1:02:21] Jomeini a poder Irán. Se hizo
[1:02:24] una república islámica donde
[1:02:26] autoridades religiosas
[1:02:28] conservadores tienen poder
[1:02:31] sobre el gobierno elegido. En
[1:02:34] las décadas que siguen, Irán
[1:02:37] pasó por guerra con Irak,
[1:02:39] represión política interna y
[1:02:41] tensiones con países del oeste.
[1:02:42] Sanciones se impusieron para
[1:02:45] tener el programa nuclear de
[1:02:49] Irán. Estas sanciones afectaron
[1:02:52] la economía de Irán,
[1:02:53] contribuyendo a inflación,
[1:02:55] desempleo y acceso reducido a
[1:02:58] mercados globales. En este
[1:02:59] plazo, Irán vio olas de
[1:03:02] protestas repetidas en 2009,
[1:03:04] 2017 2019. Los eventos más
[1:03:08] recientes en 2022, donde más se
[1:03:12] estableció después hecho por
[1:03:17] presiones políticas y
[1:03:19] económicas y restricciones
[1:03:21] sociales. Cada vez que las
[1:03:22] autoridades respondieron con
[1:03:24] restricciones de medios,
[1:03:25] arrestos masivos y fuerza letal,
[1:03:29] esto siguió un patrono y
[1:03:33] demostraciones fueron causadas
[1:03:35] por dificultades económicas y
[1:03:37] resultaron en décadas de
[1:03:39] frustración acumulado sobre la
[1:03:40] falta de derechos humanos y
[1:03:43] libertades y las condiciones de
[1:03:45] vivir. Esta inquietud no está
[1:03:48] pasando y aislamiento es parte
[1:03:49] de un ciclo histórico hecho por
[1:03:52] intervención del extranjero.
[1:03:56] Autoritarios restricciones
[1:03:58] económicas y demandas públicas
[1:03:59] para reformas. El régimen en
[1:04:03] Irán bloqueó acceso a
[1:04:05] telecomunicaciones, incluyendo
[1:04:06] el Internet. Entonces no
[1:04:08] sabemos cuántos iraníes han
[1:04:11] muertos en la última ola de
[1:04:14] violencia estatal. 6036 mil,
[1:04:18] quizás más de 50.000 son
[1:04:20] adivina. Son cálculos. Es una
[1:04:25] masacre hecho por un gobierno
[1:04:27] en contra de su propia gente
[1:04:29] por ejercer su derecho
[1:04:32] universal de protesta en paz.
[1:04:34] Es un delito en contra de la
[1:04:36] humanidad. Lo sé. Que el uno de
[1:04:37] mis colegas quieren decir unas
[1:04:39] palabras. Concejala Yaroslavsky,
[1:04:42] usted quiere ser la primera
[1:04:44] quien habla. Gracias, Concejal
[1:04:47] Nazaret. Estoy agradecida. La
[1:04:49] oportunidad de reconocer la
[1:04:51] crisis en Irán, en solidaridad
[1:04:54] con la comunidad iraní
[1:04:55] americana aquí en Los Ángeles.
[1:04:58] Quiero hacer unos comentarios.
[1:05:00] Las organizaciones de derechos
[1:05:01] humanos reportan que varios
[1:05:04] miles han sido muertos en
[1:05:05] protestas nacional. Un apagón
[1:05:09] de comunicaciones ha hecho que
[1:05:11] reportaje sea posible y causó
[1:05:12] que familias que no tengan
[1:05:15] respuestas claras realmente
[1:05:18] rompe el corazón. Los Ángeles
[1:05:22] es la casa de una de las
[1:05:23] comunidades iraníes más grandes
[1:05:24] del mundo. Varios angelinos
[1:05:26] vinieron aquí después de la
[1:05:28] revolución de 79 y varios Los
[1:05:30] constituyentes todavía tienen
[1:05:32] padres, hermanos y queridos en
[1:05:35] Irán. Hoy las familias están
[1:05:36] viendo eventos con miedo. No
[1:05:40] poderse comunicarse con la
[1:05:41] gente que aman. El Distrito
[1:05:43] cinco incluye Westwood conoció
[1:05:45] a varios como Ángeles, el
[1:05:48] corazón de los persas
[1:05:50] americanos. El año pasado
[1:05:51] designó más Square para honrar
[1:05:53] una mujer joven, quien su
[1:05:55] muerte representó valentía y
[1:05:57] demanda para dignidad humana
[1:05:59] básica. Creo que es importante
[1:06:01] reconocer la tristeza y el
[1:06:04] miedo en nuestros corazones.
[1:06:08] Están con todos los iraníes en
[1:06:10] Los Ángeles, preocupados por la
[1:06:12] seguridad de sus seres queridos.
[1:06:19] Gracias, Concejal Nazarian por
[1:06:23] traer esto. Por explicar las
[1:06:29] circunstancias aquí en Los
[1:06:31] Ángeles. Creo que mucha gente
[1:06:32] no sabe la historia. Están
[1:06:35] agradecidos que usted lo
[1:06:36] iluminó y el hecho de que está
[1:06:38] trayendo atención a este asunto
[1:06:40] aquí en esta Cámara.
[1:06:42] Especialmente porque como usted
[1:06:43] y concejal Slawski mencionaron
[1:06:45] Los Ángeles es la casa tantos
[1:06:48] en la edad para iraní. Quienes
[1:06:51] sienten conexiones fuertes son
[1:06:52] nuestros vecinos. Servidores
[1:06:58] públicos, científicos que esta
[1:07:02] ciudad ha sido formada mucho
[1:07:03] por su presencia. Entonces está
[1:07:05] bien que usted surge estos
[1:07:09] asuntos aquí en esta Cámara No
[1:07:11] tengo mucho más que agregar a
[1:07:13] las palabras que ustedes dos ya
[1:07:15] elocuentemente compartieron,
[1:07:16] pero solamente para decir que
[1:07:17] creo que todos nos paramos al
[1:07:19] lado de los iraníes argelinos
[1:07:22] preocupados de sus familias,
[1:07:23] preocupados por la retórica que
[1:07:25] está aumentando aquí y pidiendo
[1:07:30] que por favor hablen sobre
[1:07:31] estos asuntos. Con seguridad. Y
[1:07:37] nos paramos al lado de ellos.
[1:07:39] Creo que los ángeles han
[1:07:40] mostrado por sus comunidades no
[1:07:44] solamente en momentos de
[1:07:45] celebración, sino que en
[1:07:46] momentos como estos, de
[1:07:50] incertidumbres, donde miembros
[1:07:52] de las familias de las personas
[1:07:55] aterrorizadas en casa, yo tengo
[1:07:58] empatía profunda por lo que
[1:07:59] está pasando con la comunidad
[1:08:01] ahora y quiero agradecerles por
[1:08:03] reconocer este momento, por lo
[1:08:04] que es y por permitirnos parar
[1:08:06] con el lado al lado suyo. Señor
[1:08:10] Nazarian. Gracias, Presidente.
[1:08:12] Muchas gracias, concejala y
[1:08:15] muchísimas gracias. Concejala
[1:08:17] Slowsky. Yo solo quiero acabar
[1:08:21] esto pidiendo que todos
[1:08:23] nosotros nos levantemos y
[1:08:25] levantemos en un momento de
[1:08:27] silencio para todas las
[1:08:28] personas quienes han muerto y
[1:08:30] varios quienes sus nombres
[1:08:32] nunca vamos a saber. Muchas
[1:08:35] gracias.
[1:08:52] Gracias colegas.

[1:09:41] si se desvía nuevamente del

[1:12:17] relaciona con aceptar
[1:12:19] subvenciones para calles
[1:12:21] abiertas y cerradas, pero
[1:12:24] presumo que es como esos
[1:12:27] eventos se pone muy bien. Son
[1:12:31] buenos para la comunidad. Tema
[1:12:34] 21 Se relaciona. Con asegurar
[1:12:40] los permisos para la
[1:12:42] celebración de Año Nuevo de la
[1:12:45] noche antes de Año Nuevo. Un
[1:12:48] mes después. Quiero asegurar
[1:12:52] los permisos para ese evento.
[1:12:54] Wow! Ok, entonces a ver,
[1:13:01] tenemos varios juicios. Más
[1:13:03] dinero para gastar por su
[1:13:06] liderazgo. No teniéndole
[1:13:10] servicios de vivienda a la
[1:13:11] gente. Todas las cosas
[1:13:13] divertidas que tienen, los
[1:13:15] cuales le están haciendo juicio
[1:13:17] porque la ciudad no está
[1:13:20] reparando las banquetas, el
[1:13:22] departamento de policía
[1:13:24] disparándole a la gente,
[1:13:25] matando a gente todo el tiempo,
[1:13:28] tiene todos estos juicios
[1:13:30] diferentes que están agotando
[1:13:33] el dinero del presupuesto de la
[1:13:35] ciudad, porque ustedes no
[1:13:37] realmente hacen sus trabajos,
[1:13:39] no arreglan las aceras y no
[1:13:42] mantienen responsables a los
[1:13:44] policías realmente para
[1:13:45] financiar ese departamento está
[1:13:47] agotando todos los recursos de
[1:13:48] la ciudad y causando más
[1:13:50] violencia. Ahora. Comentario
[1:13:52] público general. Bueno, Tracy.
[1:13:54] Qué le está pasando a su
[1:13:57] representante de comunicaciones?
[1:13:58] Está escribiendo toda esta de
[1:14:02] la comunidad. Así. Esos son.
[1:14:07] Quién es Tracy Park Emplea en
[1:14:11] su empleo como sus empleados?
[1:14:13] Son estos raros de derecha
[1:14:17] extrema que nace mentiras y va
[1:14:19] a la comisión de policía. Los
[1:14:23] mantienen responsable porque
[1:14:24] ellos no mantienen responsable
[1:14:25] a los policías. Estas personas
[1:14:28] raras, quienes escriben estas
[1:14:29] mentiras obvias y todas estas
[1:14:33] estupideces. Uno de los
[1:14:34] artículos más asquerosos que he
[1:14:36] visto recientemente tratando de
[1:14:38] ser agitador en la reunión.
[1:14:41] Esos son quienes Tracy Park
[1:14:44] emplea. Echen a Jim McDonald.
[1:14:45] El departamento de policía
[1:14:47] todavía está ayudando. Los
[1:14:48] secuestros de ICE, desfinanciar
[1:14:50] a la policía? Sí. Buenos días.
[1:14:58] En qué punto nos quiere dar su
[1:15:00] comentario? El comentario
[1:15:01] general. Un minuto. Me llamo
[1:15:04] Paloma. Y gustos con el sonido.
[1:15:07] Como. Mientras que la ciudad da
[1:15:08] la bienvenida al mundo por la.
[1:15:10] Por medio de la Copa Mundial y
[1:15:12] las Olimpiadas, FIFA y el Hnf
[1:15:15] tuvieron la obligación de
[1:15:16] entregar ciertos planes para
[1:15:19] antes del 31 de diciembre. Pero
[1:15:22] no son documentos públicos, así
[1:15:23] que no sabemos cómo vamos a
[1:15:26] abordar los riesgos de tráfico
[1:15:27] en la Copa Mundial. Queda
[1:15:29] cuatro meses antes de empezar,
[1:15:32] entonces no tenemos tiempo para
[1:15:33] poder enfocar en la seguridad
[1:15:35] de los trabajadores antes de
[1:15:37] que suceda algún problema en
[1:15:41] FIFA y el Twenty Eight, pedimos
[1:15:44] que asignen 3 millones de su
[1:15:47] presupuesto para abordar este
[1:15:49] asunto. Eso es una pequeña
[1:15:51] inversión, pero sin nada
[1:15:53] escrito. No podemos contar con
[1:15:54] esta protección. Hay 38
[1:15:58] organizaciones en los Estados
[1:15:59] Unidos que han firmado para
[1:16:01] apoyar esta iniciativa. Pedimos
[1:16:03] su transparencia y que aseguren
[1:16:05] que esta estos organismos
[1:16:08] contribuyen de manera
[1:16:09] significativa al tráfico. Antes
[1:16:11] del siguiente comentarista voy
[1:16:13] a llamar esos nombres. Robert
[1:16:16] Dickinson será Leeds. Sheree,
[1:16:18] Bill O Reilly y Laura FM. En
[1:16:24] qué punto quiere dar su
[1:16:25] comentario? Un comentario
[1:16:26] general Y el número cinco? El
[1:16:28] número cinco no está disponible
[1:16:30] para el comentario público,
[1:16:31] pero puede referirse al número
[1:16:34] cinco durante su comentario
[1:16:35] general. Bueno, soy George
[1:16:38] Bocanegra, del Consejo de
[1:16:40] Carpinteros y representamos más
[1:16:41] de 45.000 carpinteros en en
[1:16:45] toda California. Respetamos los
[1:16:48] intereses de la ciudad para
[1:16:49] buscar la claridad, pero eso
[1:16:52] socava la intención de A, B 20
[1:16:55] 11 y corremos el riesgo de
[1:17:00] socavar más de estas
[1:17:03] construcciones de viviendas
[1:17:04] asequibles, entre otras
[1:17:06] actividades de construcción.
[1:17:08] Necesitamos impulsores de la
[1:17:10] construcción y no más
[1:17:12] obstáculos. Necesitamos un
[1:17:15] salario mínimo para proteger a
[1:17:17] los trabajadores y mantener la
[1:17:19] fuerza laboral que necesitamos
[1:17:20] para construir las viviendas
[1:17:22] que California necesita. En
[1:17:24] cuanto a AV 11, eh el El motivo
[1:17:29] era quitar los obstáculos y
[1:17:34] ayudar a los trabajadores, así
[1:17:35] que pedimos con mucho respeto
[1:17:37] que hablen con nosotros. En
[1:17:38] cuanto a los asuntos de AB 20
[1:17:42] 11. Buenos días, en qué puntos
[1:17:46] quiere comentar el cinco? Bueno,
[1:17:49] sería el comentario general. Un
[1:17:50] minuto. Adelante. Me llamo
[1:17:53] Robert Dickerson. Esto es
[1:17:56] referente a la construcción de
[1:18:00] vivienda en el Country Club. Mi
[1:18:03] familia y yo hemos vivido cerca
[1:18:05] del Country Club durante
[1:18:08] décadas y mi hija hasta ha
[1:18:10] comprado una casa en esa área
[1:18:13] también en este lugar, hay
[1:18:16] mucha densidad y nos gusta
[1:18:20] llamar las calles como de
[1:18:22] espagueti, porque a hoy son en
[1:18:25] forma de culebra y son muy
[1:18:28] estrechas. Muchas veces solo se
[1:18:30] permite el tráfico en un
[1:18:32] sentido después de la. Los
[1:18:35] incendios de los palacetes nos
[1:18:38] llegó un aviso de evacuación,
[1:18:40] no tuvimos que ir pero
[1:18:42] decidimos irnos de igual manera.
[1:18:43] Entonces la amenaza de una
[1:18:46] evacuación no sería, eh,
[1:18:51] hipotética? No, pero una
[1:18:53] amenaza verdadera. Lo lamento,
[1:18:56] pero tenemos que darles a todo
[1:18:58] el mundo en la misma cantidad
[1:18:59] de tiempo. Para las personas
[1:19:02] que suelen ir al a estas
[1:19:04] reuniones, ya saben esto. Pero
[1:19:06] para los demás que nos no saben
[1:19:09] si quieren seguir su comentario
[1:19:12] o pueden entregar su comentario
[1:19:13] por escrito en el enlace que
[1:19:16] aparece en la página de portada
[1:19:19] de la agenda. Gracias.
[1:19:22] Siguiente. Buenos días. En qué
[1:19:29] punto El 22? Un minuto. Me
[1:19:32] llamo Sara Lee. Soy la
[1:19:34] directora ejecutiva de las
[1:19:37] Viviendas Comunitarias de
[1:19:38] Hollywood. Por favor, rechacen
[1:19:40] el gasto de más de 100
[1:19:43] millones de dólares para, eh.
[1:19:46] Para poder luchar contra estas
[1:19:49] construcciones de viviendas.
[1:19:50] Según el escrito, están
[1:19:53] haciendo reclamos falsos de
[1:19:55] fraude para el lote siete 31.
[1:20:01] No hay fraude. Uno de los
[1:20:07] dependientes había empezado
[1:20:08] todos sus trámites para este
[1:20:10] lote, que era un espacio
[1:20:12] abierto, y estos montos
[1:20:15] reflejan la zonificación de
[1:20:17] espacio abierto. Y ese consejo
[1:20:21] aprobó la zonificación para
[1:20:24] poder dar lugar a viviendas
[1:20:27] asequibles y espacios
[1:20:29] comerciales. Por favor, no
[1:20:31] desperdicien más dinero en los
[1:20:32] abogados y deberían apoyar este
[1:20:35] proyecto y contamos con sus
[1:20:37] votos en 2026 y 2022. Siguiente.
[1:20:42] Buenos días. En qué puntos? El
[1:20:45] diez y el comentario general?
[1:20:47] El diez y el comentario general?
[1:20:49] Sí, el diez no está disponible
[1:20:52] para comentarios en general,
[1:20:53] así que solo tendría un minuto.
[1:20:56] Okey. Hola, me llamo Sarah Bell.
[1:20:59] Y soy trabajadora en el cine y
[1:21:04] quisiera empezar con darles las
[1:21:05] gracias por votar. Sí, en este
[1:21:07] proyecto de ley. Y gracias al
[1:21:09] señor Gibson y al señor
[1:21:10] Blumenfield por crear una
[1:21:13] iniciativa clara. Como ha
[1:21:15] comentado esta mañana estoy de
[1:21:17] acuerdo con su visión que
[1:21:19] presentó y aprecio el liderazgo
[1:21:21] que ha promovido este asunto.
[1:21:23] Ahora que ha pasado ahora
[1:21:25] tenemos que asegurar los
[1:21:27] recursos necesarios para que
[1:21:29] tengamos éxito. Tenemos la
[1:21:31] oportunidad de transformar
[1:21:32] vidas y fortalecer nuestra
[1:21:35] economía pero necesitamos
[1:21:37] contar con los fondos para
[1:21:38] poder corresponder con, EH, su
[1:21:41] su posibilidad, su potencial.
[1:21:45] Para una persona que trabaja
[1:21:47] con una variedad de personas,
[1:21:50] incluyendo adultos de
[1:21:51] necesidades especiales, esta es
[1:21:53] una iniciativa de gran impacto
[1:21:55] y da la bienvenida a las
[1:21:57] personas que no hayan podido
[1:21:59] participar en esta industria.
[1:22:00] Muchas gracias. Bueno, si es en
[1:22:08] qué puntos quiere comentar el
[1:22:11] 22 y el comentario general un
[1:22:13] minuto para cada uno. Gracias.
[1:22:16] Me llamo Allison Risley y soy
[1:22:18] la co-directora de, EH, las
[1:22:21] viviendas comunitarias de
[1:22:23] Bennett. Estoy pidiendo que
[1:22:25] ustedes cumplan con su palabra.
[1:22:27] La ciudad ha pedido que se
[1:22:29] construya un sitio en Benes en
[1:22:32] viviendas asequibles. Los
[1:22:37] desarrollistas, eh, ganaron el
[1:22:39] derecho para poder hacer esto y
[1:22:41] se aprobaron los derechos en
[1:22:43] 2021. Y se firmó el acuerdo en
[1:22:46] 2022. La ciudad ha defendido
[1:22:48] sus acciones en una demanda en
[1:22:52] 2023 y 2024 y la nube
[1:22:55] representante y la nuestra
[1:22:58] fiscal han demorado todo esto y
[1:23:01] han inventado que la Comisión
[1:23:03] de Transporte tiene la facultad
[1:23:05] de revocar la decisión del
[1:23:07] Concejo Municipal. Ahora
[1:23:08] tenemos que pagar más de 3/4 de
[1:23:11] 1 millón de dólares para poder
[1:23:13] luchar y obstruir la vivienda
[1:23:15] asequible que nos aprobaron en
[1:23:17] el primer lugar. Los
[1:23:20] desarrollistas han continuado
[1:23:22] haciendo todo lo que todo lo
[1:23:25] necesario de la ciudad,
[1:23:27] incluyendo aprobarse los
[1:23:29] derechos. En este caso, la
[1:23:32] ciudad es el único que no está
[1:23:33] cumpliendo con su promesa. Si
[1:23:35] seguimos desperdiciando,
[1:23:37] desperdiciando más viviendas
[1:23:39] asequibles, vamos a gastar más
[1:23:42] dinero y necesariamente. Pero
[1:23:44] quedamos claro, esto no es lo
[1:23:46] que el pueblo de Los Ángeles
[1:23:48] merece. Necesitamos más
[1:23:50] viviendas asequibles en toda
[1:23:51] esta ciudad. Así que pedimos
[1:23:54] que ya basta, que ya dejen de
[1:23:57] gastar dinero y que se opongan
[1:24:00] a Traci Park y que les importe
[1:24:02] la vivienda asequible y que
[1:24:07] aseguren que se construya este
[1:24:08] proyecto. Antes del siguiente
[1:24:12] comentarista. Voy a llamar los
[1:24:14] últimos cuatro nombres. Ah,
[1:24:16] perdón, tres. Linda Lux,
[1:24:19] Valerie Berkeley. Ah, pues son
[1:24:23] todos. Hola. Buenos días. En
[1:24:28] qué puntos? Buenos días.
[1:24:31] Quisiera comentar en el 21 y 22
[1:24:33] y luego comentario público. Dos
[1:24:35] minutos para estos puntos y un
[1:24:37] minuto para comentarios en
[1:24:38] general. Entonces, eh, para el
[1:24:40] 21 y 22 Tiene que ver con las
[1:24:43] finanzas y mi mi problema es
[1:24:46] que cobren a la iglesia de
[1:24:50] Cientología cualquier programa
[1:24:53] o eh, cuentas de voluntarios o
[1:24:58] lo que sea un fuente de
[1:25:02] finanzas de la iglesia de
[1:25:04] odontología es inhumano. Eso es
[1:25:06] un culto. Así que tengan
[1:25:09] cuidado. Media vez aceptan más
[1:25:12] finanzas para poder ayudar a
[1:25:13] las personas que no tienen
[1:25:14] techo. Por favor, asegúrense
[1:25:16] que no viene de los bolsillos
[1:25:19] de a la iglesia de Cientología.
[1:25:24] Ahora. Quise hablar de las y la
[1:25:26] ontología y la táctica que se
[1:25:29] usa en esta iglesia para
[1:25:31] presentarse como un socio
[1:25:34] confiable a la EH frente a las
[1:25:36] autoridades y otras
[1:25:38] organizaciones para ocultar su
[1:25:39] fin eh verdadero y en
[1:25:43] odontología pueden lograr esto
[1:25:44] por medio de presentarse como,
[1:25:47] eh, Caridades religiosas o
[1:25:50] alternativas a la salud mental
[1:25:52] en la Iglesia de San. No creen
[1:25:55] en servicios de salud mental,
[1:25:58] en la cientología es un culto
[1:26:01] bien reconocido en varios
[1:26:04] países. Espero que me escuchen.
[1:26:07] Sé que hay muchas personas que
[1:26:08] están hablando. Deberían
[1:26:10] escuchar al comentario público.
[1:26:14] En la cientología se se le
[1:26:17] conoce como culto o un grupo de
[1:26:19] autocontrol. En varios países y
[1:26:21] hay ex miembros que han
[1:26:24] documentado daños eh
[1:26:27] extraordinarios. Y por favor no
[1:26:29] hablen. Mientras que estoy
[1:26:30] hablando. Siguiente. Buenos
[1:26:33] días. Tres minutos para los
[1:26:35] puntos y un minuto para el
[1:26:36] comentario general. Gracias. Y
[1:26:38] quisiera reconocer al señor Lee,
[1:26:40] aunque me debe una disculpa
[1:26:44] porque el único que estaba
[1:26:46] prestando atención, pero de
[1:26:47] igual manera debería de
[1:26:49] perderme, pedirme perdón. En
[1:26:52] cuanto a la celebración de la
[1:26:56] el año nuevo, me da mucho gusto
[1:26:59] que estén en las actas, pero
[1:27:01] por qué no están en las actas
[1:27:03] para que el público pueda votar
[1:27:05] o hablar de esto? Porque en la
[1:27:10] antología EH recibió su, eh, su
[1:27:14] eh, la el permiso para tener su
[1:27:16] evento. Pero es fue un
[1:27:19] quebrantamiento porque
[1:27:19] bloquearon la las banquetas,
[1:27:24] pero eh confabularon con los
[1:27:27] servicios de la calle la
[1:27:28] policía para poder llevarlo a
[1:27:30] cabo y es ilegal. La fiscal
[1:27:33] debería de haber haberlo
[1:27:37] detenido y seguro que estaría
[1:27:40] de acuerdo. Tenemos que tener
[1:27:42] un proceso transparente. No
[1:27:45] deberían de cerrar tantas
[1:27:46] calles media, un partido de USC
[1:27:49] y este evento donde los
[1:27:53] odontólogos están, eh,
[1:27:55] verificando las licencias, a
[1:27:56] ver si esos estudiantes
[1:27:57] pertenecen a la iglesia. Y creo
[1:28:00] que debería ser más
[1:28:02] transparente y que se asienten
[1:28:04] en las actas. Y estoy a punto
[1:28:08] de aceptar su perdón. Si en el
[1:28:11] evento de del año que viene de
[1:28:15] odontología sale en el registro
[1:28:17] público, porque deberíamos
[1:28:21] poder hablar de todo esto,
[1:28:22] Tienen todas estas demandas que
[1:28:24] tienen que responder y deberían
[1:28:27] de prepararse. Así que ya no
[1:28:31] dejen, eh, permitir cosas
[1:28:34] ilegales y. Y luego con las
[1:28:38] calles lentas estoy a favor.
[1:28:40] Pero también pueden ayudar al
[1:28:43] tráfico en el Hubbard es una
[1:28:46] calle pública, pero la iglesia
[1:28:48] de celosía es, eh. Se hace como
[1:28:50] si no si no lo fuera. Y es más
[1:28:54] peligroso para los niños que
[1:28:56] están andando en las calles o
[1:28:59] usando sus bicicletas. Esto no
[1:29:02] aparece en el agenda. Estoy
[1:29:03] hablando del 21. Tiene que
[1:29:05] hablar del 21. Bueno, en las
[1:29:08] calles lentas tienen que
[1:29:10] encontrar las calles lentas
[1:29:11] para poder quitar el tráfico de
[1:29:14] otras calles. Así todos tenemos
[1:29:17] el mismo acceso. Si uno quiere,
[1:29:19] eh, reducir la velocidad en una
[1:29:22] calle y luego tenemos todas
[1:29:23] estas otras calles excluyendo
[1:29:25] una calle donde hay una iglesia
[1:29:27] que permite la esclavitud. Así
[1:29:29] que creo que es relacionado, eh?
[1:29:31] No estoy de acuerdo con usted.
[1:29:33] Y creo que, eh, Smokings
[1:29:35] estaría de acuerdo conmigo.
[1:29:37] Tenemos que tener calles más
[1:29:40] accesibles. Y el comentario
[1:29:42] general, Fuimos a Burbank. Es
[1:29:44] un mundo diferente a prestar
[1:29:47] atención. De verdad? Y lo
[1:29:49] pueden imaginar porque después
[1:29:52] el comentario público puede
[1:29:53] responder a todos los ponentes
[1:29:55] y cada uno nos dio las gracias
[1:29:59] para eh, estar aquí y a
[1:30:03] arriesgar nuestra seguridad y
[1:30:06] nuestra reputación porque nos
[1:30:08] quieren destruir. Y uno de los
[1:30:12] concejales nos dijo que esto es
[1:30:14] tan diferente en Los Ángeles,
[1:30:16] pero comentó que vinieron acá
[1:30:20] para hablar con ustedes y nadie
[1:30:22] estaba prestando atención. Y
[1:30:23] esto fue un concejal de otra
[1:30:26] ciudad cercana. Todo el mundo
[1:30:29] estaba en los teléfonos y
[1:30:32] estaban hablando entre ustedes.
[1:30:33] Por lo menos el señor Lee está
[1:30:35] haciendo un esfuerzo y todavía
[1:30:37] me debe una disculpa. Y también
[1:30:40] usted, señor fiscal. Y el
[1:30:42] Presidente. Se le acabó su
[1:30:45] tiempo. Siguiente comentarista.
[1:30:47] Antes. Siguiente comentarista.
[1:30:49] Tengo unos nombres más. Edgar
[1:30:53] Alejandro Aguilar y Scan.
[1:30:57] Buenos días. En qué puntos
[1:30:58] quiere comentar el comentario
[1:31:00] general? Un minuto. Gracias.
[1:31:02] Buenos días al concejal. Me
[1:31:04] llamo Valerie Berkley, soy una
[1:31:06] directora de políticas y
[1:31:08] quisiera comentar en el número
[1:31:11] nueve en la Cámara de Comercio.
[1:31:13] Está en contra de esta
[1:31:15] estructura de una prohibición
[1:31:17] de SIN de los cargos sin
[1:31:21] efectivos. Es algo que habíamos
[1:31:24] creado durante la pandemia y
[1:31:26] ahora tendríamos que gastar
[1:31:28] dinero para crear otra
[1:31:30] estructura. Esto también es más
[1:31:32] seguro porque puede prevenir el
[1:31:34] fraude. Aunque estamos de
[1:31:36] acuerdo de la equidad y la
[1:31:38] inclusión, esto ignora lo obvio
[1:31:41] que estamos enfrentando como
[1:31:44] negocios. Así que pedimos que
[1:31:46] el Consejo trabaje de manera
[1:31:49] colaborativa con la industria
[1:31:50] comercial sin tener que eh
[1:31:53] hacer alguna concesión en
[1:31:54] ninguna parte. Gracias. Buenos
[1:32:05] días al concejal. Me llamo
[1:32:07] Linda Lux. Trabajo con la
[1:32:11] vivienda comunitaria de Venus y
[1:32:13] he trabajado, he vivido y
[1:32:15] trabajado en Venus desde los
[1:32:18] años 70. Necesitamos viviendas
[1:32:20] asequibles y la ciudad ha
[1:32:22] gastado, eh, miles de dólares
[1:32:24] para, eh, oponerse al proyecto
[1:32:26] de Venus. Y ya se aprobó en el
[1:32:29] Concejo Municipal. Ahora van a
[1:32:32] gastar más de 700.000 $ para
[1:32:35] seguir luchando contra esto. Es
[1:32:38] que. Es que este es, eh. Tiene
[1:32:43] un mal aspecto. Luce mal. Todos
[1:32:46] estamos a favor de esto. Por
[1:32:47] favor, dejen de desperdiciar
[1:32:49] tanto dinero para contratar
[1:32:52] abogados y luchar contra las
[1:32:54] viviendas asequibles. También
[1:32:56] están arriesgando perder la
[1:32:59] designación a favor de estas
[1:33:01] viviendas que nos otorgó las el
[1:33:04] el Estado. Sé que no quieren
[1:33:06] arriesgar todo eso, así que
[1:33:08] tengan mucho cuidado con votar
[1:33:11] en este punto. Gracias. Buenos
[1:33:18] días. Gracias. Cuáles temas
[1:33:20] quiere hablar? Comentario
[1:33:22] público. Tiene un minuto?
[1:33:23] Adelante. Buenos días,
[1:33:27] concejales. Yo soy Edward
[1:33:29] Recinos. Antes trabajaba en
[1:33:30] Wingstop, pero este mes me
[1:33:34] echaron del trabajo. Antes de
[1:33:36] eso, expedimos una queja porque
[1:33:41] fuimos expuestos a peligros de
[1:33:46] quemaduras y forzados a
[1:33:47] trabajar mientras teniendo
[1:33:49] COVID. Y no solamente eso, sino
[1:33:50] que una vez uno de los
[1:33:52] encargados vinieron a trabajar
[1:33:55] bajo los efectos de alcohol.
[1:33:58] Entonces mi empleador no se
[1:34:01] concentró en arreglar los
[1:34:03] problemas y en lugar de eso
[1:34:05] ellos. Nos acosaban con tomar
[1:34:11] revancha. Yo creo que fui
[1:34:14] despedido por ejercer mis
[1:34:15] derechos y ser un miembro del
[1:34:17] sindicato de trabajo. Estoy
[1:34:18] aquí una vez más pidiendo que
[1:34:20] ustedes apoyen la ordenanza de
[1:34:24] comida de trabajo de los
[1:34:27] trabajos de comida rápida.
[1:34:31] Antes del siguiente orador, voy
[1:34:33] a llamar a algunos nombres a
[1:34:36] Drew, Tim, Judy y Kendra, que.
[1:34:41] Buenos días. De cuáles temas
[1:34:43] quiere hablar? Buenos días. Voy
[1:34:45] a. Voy a dar un comentario
[1:34:48] público. Tiene un minuto?
[1:34:50] Adelante. Yo soy Alejandra. Yo
[1:34:52] soy miembro del Sindicato de
[1:34:54] Trabajadores de Comida Rápida.
[1:34:56] Trabajo para Taco Bell en el
[1:34:58] distrito ocho. Estamos cansados
[1:35:01] del maltrato. Necesitamos
[1:35:03] herramientas para proteger a
[1:35:05] nosotros y cada uno. Trabajo en
[1:35:07] Taco Bell y archivé una queja
[1:35:10] después de que me persiguió
[1:35:12] detrás del contador del
[1:35:15] mostrador. Un hombre quien me
[1:35:17] estaba acosando sexualmente.
[1:35:20] Nunca nos conseguimos
[1:35:21] entrenamiento para cómo
[1:35:22] protegernos. Y en el momento,
[1:35:24] agarré un cortador de pizza
[1:35:25] para defenderme. Deberíamos
[1:35:28] haber tener un botón de pánico
[1:35:30] que funciona o un plan de
[1:35:32] evacuación. Pero en lugar de
[1:35:33] eso, cuando yo hablé sobre lo
[1:35:35] que pasó, me. Me cortaron las
[1:35:36] horas y me trasladaron a otra
[1:35:39] tienda. Los trabajadores de
[1:35:41] comida rápida tienen que saber
[1:35:42] sus derechos y entrenamiento de
[1:35:45] cómo ejercerlo para ejecutar
[1:35:47] todas las leyes juntos en cómo
[1:35:49] protegernos, no mantenerlos a
[1:35:53] nosotros en silencio. Buenos
[1:36:04] días. De cuáles temas quiere
[1:36:06] hablar? Esto va a ser para
[1:36:07] comentario general. Tiene un
[1:36:09] minuto? Hola, buenos días.
[1:36:10] Estoy aquí para hablarnos de la
[1:36:12] necesidad de pasar la ordenanza
[1:36:13] de comida rápido. Yo soy
[1:36:15] barista y capitán de Starbucks,
[1:36:17] Los Ángeles de Miracle Mile
[1:36:19] Starbucks. Le gusta decir que
[1:36:20] ofrece los mejores trabajos en
[1:36:22] retail porque pueden cantar una
[1:36:24] canción con pasión y como otros
[1:36:26] gigantes, Starbucks prefiere
[1:36:27] crear desorden y destrucción en
[1:36:29] la vida de los trabajadores y
[1:36:30] significa que ven crecimiento.
[1:36:33] Como muchos trabajadores saben,
[1:36:34] en septiembre puede salir el
[1:36:37] miércoles con horarios para la
[1:36:38] siguiente dos semanas para
[1:36:39] venir el miércoles y ver que la
[1:36:41] tienda se cierra
[1:36:42] permanentemente ese sábado sin
[1:36:44] línea de tiempo. Si la empresa
[1:36:45] va a pedir que vuelvan al
[1:36:47] trabajo, la realidad es que
[1:36:48] muchos de nosotros enfrentamos
[1:36:50] es un lugar no bien financiado,
[1:36:52] con 20 horas por semana,
[1:36:54] arriesgar a perder su seguro y
[1:36:56] otros beneficios, además de ser
[1:36:58] requerido para tener 150% de
[1:37:01] disponibilidad. Por estas
[1:37:02] razones, pido que paren con
[1:37:05] trabajadores de comida rápido
[1:37:06] para apoyar a nuestras familias,
[1:37:08] mantener las empresas
[1:37:10] responsables y asegurar que la
[1:37:11] ordenanza se apruebe sin más
[1:37:13] demora. Gracias. Buenos días.
[1:37:20] De cuáles temas quiere hablar?
[1:37:22] Comentario general y 22 Tiene
[1:37:25] un minuto para el tema y un
[1:37:27] minuto para general. Hola, yo
[1:37:28] soy Judy Braverman. Estoy aquí
[1:37:31] para pedir que voten en contra
[1:37:32] de asignar todo el dinero para
[1:37:35] pelear en el comunidad.
[1:37:38] Proyecto disponible. Estoy aquí
[1:37:40] para dar contexto. Aunque mucha
[1:37:42] gente ni siquiera está
[1:37:43] escuchando. Hace dos años, yo y
[1:37:49] otros miembros de Venice
[1:37:50] hicimos un proyecto de. Estudio
[1:37:55] y artes tomando fotos de todos
[1:37:57] los edificios, más de 300 que
[1:37:59] los sacaron del mercado de
[1:38:01] Venice usando el la ley Benes.
[1:38:06] Les dimos casi 1400 unidades
[1:38:09] sacadas del mercado que no
[1:38:12] incluyó miles removidos por
[1:38:15] Airbnb y cienes y cienes
[1:38:18] removidos por acoso de
[1:38:22] propietario a los inquilinos. Y
[1:38:24] como ustedes saben, en la
[1:38:26] ciudad más de 30.000 unidades
[1:38:27] se han perdido. O sea, el
[1:38:29] solamente comentario general.
[1:38:31] Gracias. Ustedes saben,
[1:38:36] continuando esta pelea por una
[1:38:39] razón loca, no solamente están
[1:38:41] creando falta de vivienda, sino
[1:38:44] que gastando nuestro dinero
[1:38:47] precioso de impuestos para
[1:38:48] resolver el problema. La
[1:38:51] solución es vivienda económica,
[1:38:55] construcción y aún prevenir
[1:38:57] desalojamientos y falta de
[1:39:00] vivienda a través de ULA y
[1:39:02] otras medidas. Entonces hablen
[1:39:04] de sus compromisos. No hablé
[1:39:11] aquí mucho en mucho tiempo,
[1:39:13] pero es una falta de respeto
[1:39:14] ver cuánta gente está hablando
[1:39:16] y cuántos miembros del Consejo
[1:39:18] ni siquiera están escuchando.
[1:39:19] Es triste. Gracias por votar en
[1:39:22] contra de 22. Buenos días a mis
[1:39:29] 15 personas favoritas. Buenos
[1:39:31] días. Todos los temas y
[1:39:32] comentarios en general. Buenos
[1:39:33] días. Yo me anoté para como
[1:39:37] Drew. Timmy, quiero hablar para
[1:39:39] 21, 22, 23 y comentario general.
[1:39:42] Tiene tres minutos para los
[1:39:43] temas y un minuto para general.
[1:39:45] Primero quiero preguntar.
[1:39:47] Llegué tarde, pero John Lee se
[1:39:49] recluyó para el tema 22. Le va
[1:39:56] a ahorrar un poco de vergüenza
[1:39:57] porque se tiene que retrasar.
[1:40:00] El estuvo usando este estudio
[1:40:02] para sus esfuerzos de defensa
[1:40:04] legal. Escuché que lo están
[1:40:08] pasando por no pagar sus
[1:40:11] facturas. Pero después del
[1:40:13] informe del tercer trimestre,
[1:40:15] todavía le debe a Newsom
[1:40:18] 4.000 $. Parece ser un interés
[1:40:21] financiero requiriendo
[1:40:23] reclusión Growth. Hablando de
[1:40:26] sus deudas, le preguntas a
[1:40:27] todos aquí que consideren
[1:40:29] hablar a su cuenta de campaña o
[1:40:32] cuentas de defensa legal entre
[1:40:33] esos dos y la multa que pagó en
[1:40:35] diciembre con la Comisión Ética
[1:40:37] queda en deuda a 329.000 $. Y
[1:40:41] esa figura seguramente se va a
[1:40:43] aumentar al final de la semana,
[1:40:45] cuando nos enteramos cuánto él
[1:40:46] consiguió en facturas legales
[1:40:48] en el último trimestre. Es
[1:40:51] increíble ver como Heidi sigue
[1:40:53] volviendo para más dinero para
[1:40:54] el consejo de afuera que
[1:40:56] comenzó el punto 9 millones. Y
[1:41:02] luego ella recibió otro medio
[1:41:04] millón y ahora está buscando
[1:41:06] 1.8 millones. Algunos de
[1:41:09] ustedes conocieron mi perro Rex.
[1:41:11] Muy tierno. Debo demostrar que
[1:41:14] es muy buena suerte. La mitad
[1:41:16] de los concejales que lo
[1:41:17] conocieron han sido elegidos.
[1:41:19] Él sabe que solamente tiene un
[1:41:22] regalo después de que come su
[1:41:24] comida. Si lo come
[1:41:25] inmediatamente,
[1:41:27] independientemente lo que hace
[1:41:28] después, cuando come, viene y
[1:41:30] se sienta al lado mío pidiendo
[1:41:34] más. You gonna come back.
[1:41:41] Aunque yo le dé esos todos los
[1:41:43] días, le tengo que rechazar. Él
[1:41:46] sabe las reglas. No es su culpa.
[1:41:47] Es un perro. Pero si yo puedo
[1:41:49] rechazar sus pedidos de vuelta
[1:41:55] repetida. Yo pido que ustedes
[1:41:57] le pregunten a Heidi. Le pidan
[1:41:58] que haga Heidi, haga lo mismo.
[1:42:01] 21 es un evento de Año nuevo
[1:42:03] para Highland Park. Tiene una
[1:42:06] maldición este año. Saben lo
[1:42:08] que va a pasar en los próximos
[1:42:10] nueve meses? Va a ser un
[1:42:11] desastre el presupuesto y va a
[1:42:12] tener que iniciar la votación
[1:42:14] de guerras y navegar todas las
[1:42:17] medidas de generar ganancias.
[1:42:20] Mientras, viendo que tenemos
[1:42:21] que hacer conyugal ahí vamos a
[1:42:23] tener un primario pasando y las
[1:42:26] últimas van a tener que hacer
[1:42:27] propuestas de la comisión de
[1:42:29] Karen. Es todo es posible, pero
[1:42:31] lo que no se puede funcionar es
[1:42:32] operar bajo esto, donde dos
[1:42:34] personas en este edificio
[1:42:36] controlan y caminan rápido con
[1:42:39] todo lo que tenemos ahí. Por
[1:42:40] eso vine aquí la semana pasada.
[1:42:42] Le pedí que se comuniquen con
[1:42:44] la Comisión de Estatuto para
[1:42:46] que no tengan un desastre ante
[1:42:48] ustedes. Y ahora quiero hablar
[1:42:50] sobre la conversación de ayer
[1:42:52] de Comunicaciones Ex-parte.
[1:42:54] Creo que el concejal
[1:42:55] Blumenfield fue un poco de una
[1:42:57] diva con su voto en contra.
[1:42:58] Pero tiene razón sobre la falta
[1:43:01] de experiencia de esta comisión,
[1:43:03] hecho peor por el Presidente,
[1:43:06] poniendo al Comisario con más
[1:43:08] expediente. De hecho peor con
[1:43:09] el hecho de que los empleados
[1:43:11] que eligieron no tienen nada de
[1:43:16] conocimiento de la ciudad. Es
[1:43:18] importante que ustedes estén
[1:43:19] hablando con los comisarios. Yo
[1:43:21] no quiero tener percepción que
[1:43:24] los van a criticar por
[1:43:25] hablarles a ellos. Yo los voy a
[1:43:27] criticar a ustedes. Si yo me
[1:43:28] entero que ustedes y sus
[1:43:30] empleados les están hablando,
[1:43:32] entonces háganlo. Por último,
[1:43:39] quiero notar algo del
[1:43:41] presidente Raymond Mesa Jr. Uno
[1:43:43] de los personas más deshonestas
[1:43:47] traicioneras que he visto en
[1:43:49] este edificio. Tenga mucho
[1:43:51] cuidado cuando las palabras
[1:43:52] salen de su boca. Siguiente
[1:43:55] comentarista. Vamos a llamar
[1:43:59] otros nombres antes de este
[1:44:00] orador. Linda Hamilton. Siva,
[1:44:06] Susan Oomen, Sylvia y formen.
[1:44:15] Yo soy Helen Peck. Estoy aquí
[1:44:17] hablando para temas 22 y
[1:44:18] comentario general. Un minuto
[1:44:20] para el tema. Un minuto para el
[1:44:22] general. La pregunta en
[1:44:25] totalidad es. Se demuestra. Es
[1:44:28] que yo no sé si es que los
[1:44:30] ángeles se puede gobernar.
[1:44:34] Antes era un joven y tenía idea,
[1:44:36] era idealista. Yo viví en los
[1:44:39] canales de Venus por 40 años ya.
[1:44:42] Yo amo los ángeles, amo venís?
[1:44:49] Pero mira lo que está pasando,
[1:44:51] que vamos a tener unas
[1:44:53] olimpiadas aquí construyendo un
[1:44:55] centro de convención o que
[1:44:58] nosotros vamos a tener el
[1:45:00] Mundial aquí. Yo no sé si
[1:45:04] ninguna de esas cosas van a
[1:45:05] suceder y si van a suceder bien.
[1:45:07] Y esto de lo que estamos
[1:45:10] hablando ahora es un buen
[1:45:12] dibujo de las tareas que
[1:45:15] nosotros tenemos para tratar de
[1:45:17] hacer cosas. He estado
[1:45:20] trabajando en este proyecto
[1:45:21] como voluntario por 7U8 años y
[1:45:26] esto es el proyecto de Dennis.
[1:45:30] Tuvimos grandes esperanzas hace
[1:45:33] siete años yo estaba aquí, el
[1:45:35] Consejo Municipal unánimemente
[1:45:38] aprobó utilizando propiedad de
[1:45:40] la ciudad para que no haya
[1:45:41] costo de adquisición y
[1:45:44] construir casas económicas. No
[1:45:48] había cuestión que nosotros
[1:45:50] necesitábamos eso. Pero lo que
[1:45:51] pasó ahora, siete, ocho años
[1:45:53] después, es virtualmente nada.
[1:45:56] Hemos hecho todo correctamente.
[1:45:59] Tuvimos varias reuniones de la
[1:46:01] comunidad. Cada batalla de la
[1:46:05] corte en la cual estuvimos
[1:46:07] involucrados, la ganamos y
[1:46:09] volvimos aquí de nuevo y no
[1:46:11] hubo ni una pala trabajando en
[1:46:14] los últimos siete años. En
[1:46:16] algún momento alguien tiene que
[1:46:18] decir que tenemos que resolver
[1:46:19] esto, que tenemos que moverlo
[1:46:21] adelante y son ustedes quienes
[1:46:26] los que tienen que hacerlo y
[1:46:27] estamos contando con ustedes.
[1:46:29] Por favor, hagan su trabajo.
[1:46:31] Por favor, asegúrense de que
[1:46:34] los ángeles completa sus
[1:46:37] trabajos. Se le acabó su tiempo.
[1:46:40] Muchas gracias. Hola. Buenos
[1:46:44] días. De cuáles temas quiere
[1:46:46] hablar? Quiero hablar que esta
[1:46:53] semana pasada. Hasta ahora,
[1:46:55] están involucrados con uno de
[1:46:58] los congresos de empoderamiento,
[1:47:01] mayormente en el Centro Los
[1:47:03] Ángeles. Me dio. Más
[1:47:07] profundidad sobre los problemas
[1:47:09] que enfrenta los ángeles, las
[1:47:11] actitudes y las opiniones
[1:47:13] constructivas y las métodos de
[1:47:16] cooperación que están afectando
[1:47:19] en el diálogo y el Curso,
[1:47:22] reflejando mi visión y
[1:47:25] participación con estos
[1:47:28] congresos, con todos ustedes,
[1:47:31] yo espero poder construir un
[1:47:36] centro que asegura esta
[1:47:40] necesidad de afirmación mutual
[1:47:42] en proyectos no centralizados
[1:47:44] para. Lanzamiento. Auto
[1:47:50] engrandecimiento. Y es eso
[1:47:54] nomás. Que tengan un lindo día.
[1:47:57] Buenos días. Cuáles temas
[1:47:59] quiere hablar? Buenos días.
[1:48:01] Quiere hablar para Comentario
[1:48:02] público general y tema 22.
[1:48:05] Tiene un minuto para el tema y
[1:48:07] un minuto para general. Hola,
[1:48:09] yo soy Elvia Arroz y yo soy
[1:48:12] residente de Venice. Hace mucho
[1:48:14] tiempo hice una copia para
[1:48:16] todos ustedes. El artículo
[1:48:20] diciendo que Los Ángeles está
[1:48:22] teniendo ellos mismos si los
[1:48:24] pueden distribuir para mí,
[1:48:27] según Jessie, estoy de acuerdo.
[1:48:29] Este problema se vuelve a los
[1:48:34] 1960 cuando crecimiento ha
[1:48:37] crecido. Se puso con políticos,
[1:48:40] política agresiva. Un consenso
[1:48:41] tomó raíz de que construir
[1:48:43] menos casas es mejor en
[1:48:45] momentos de crisis como tenemos
[1:48:48] ahora. En esta situación
[1:48:50] necesitamos líderes, quienes
[1:48:51] van a ser decisiones difíciles
[1:48:53] lo hacen porque lo declararon
[1:48:55] una prioridad top y actuaron
[1:48:59] adecuadamente. Las ciudades se
[1:49:02] cometieron sabotaje automático.
[1:49:05] A ellos. El tema es que si
[1:49:08] estamos dispuestos o
[1:49:10] disponibles a decir que sí. Que
[1:49:14] decirles que sí, no gastando
[1:49:16] millones de dólares tratando de
[1:49:20] impedir a ellos tratando de ser
[1:49:25] constituyentes. Buenos días. De
[1:49:30] cuáles temas quiere hablar?
[1:49:34] Comentario público y 22 Antes
[1:49:37] de comenzar, puede tomar
[1:49:39] libertad en ajustar el
[1:49:41] micrófono si quiere. Buenos
[1:49:45] días. Yo soy Susan Millman. Yo
[1:49:50] soy residente de Venice y
[1:49:53] propietario. Penny necesita
[1:49:55] vivienda económica. Todos
[1:49:57] podemos estar de acuerdo con
[1:49:58] eso casi todos los días. Los
[1:50:03] papeles y los elegidos declaran
[1:50:05] que Los Ángeles necesita
[1:50:09] vivienda para sus 40.000
[1:50:13] personas sin vivienda. Justo
[1:50:15] ayer en el Times. Dicen que Los
[1:50:22] Ángeles está cometiendo
[1:50:23] sabotaje para vivienda. Y le
[1:50:26] echó la culpa a esto. Y le echó
[1:50:31] la culpa a su necesidad para
[1:50:33] vivienda. Para A falta política
[1:50:37] e voluntad política. Por esa
[1:50:41] razón, Benes aprobó el proyecto
[1:50:45] del. Dos veces. La Comisión
[1:50:49] Costal le dio esto. Le costó
[1:50:56] nada al Fondo General de la
[1:50:58] Ciudad. Bienestar son de in
[1:51:04] gresos de vivienda y da 120
[1:51:08] unidades a miembros de las
[1:51:10] familias sin vivienda que de
[1:51:12] otra manera estarían en la
[1:51:13] calle. Y sin embargo, después
[1:51:16] de una década en desarrollo,
[1:51:19] usted busca 760.000 $ para
[1:51:24] pelear para este proyecto. Todo
[1:51:26] para satisfacer una
[1:51:29] contingencia local de Nimbys.
[1:51:33] Quienes han perdido dos casos
[1:51:34] de la corte tratando de
[1:51:37] bloquearlo. La solicitud es
[1:51:39] ridícula. Es un gasto y es
[1:51:43] inmoral. Lo tienen que rechazar.
[1:51:54] Buenos días. De cuarentena
[1:51:56] quiero hablar. Comentario
[1:52:00] público. Esto es como una
[1:52:05] repetición. Pero por razón de
[1:52:10] cuál? Nuestro consejo municipal.
[1:52:13] Si no? Los payasos pusieron en
[1:52:15] bancarrota a la ciudad. Dándole
[1:52:16] 1.000.000.000 de aumento a las
[1:52:18] policías. Hay cero temas como
[1:52:21] normal en la agenda, los cuales
[1:52:23] para realmente gastar algo un
[1:52:26] presupuesto de emergencia de
[1:52:28] 1.000.000.000 de dólares,
[1:52:29] payasos incompetentes, miles de
[1:52:32] problemas de falta de vivienda
[1:52:35] 275. Billones en daños de
[1:52:40] incendios, emergencia, payasos
[1:52:43] incompetentes. Como saben, el
[1:52:45] Presidente. En el distrito ocho
[1:52:49] Tasa de desempleo más alto en
[1:52:51] Distrito ocho en todo el país.
[1:52:53] Más de 12.5% falta de vivienda
[1:52:56] y encarcelamiento. Pero también
[1:52:59] formalmente, Protesto.
[1:53:00] Cualquier cosa fuera de lo que
[1:53:02] se tiene que hacer. El general,
[1:53:05] el fiscal general, el FBI y
[1:53:08] comentarista. Se le acabó su
[1:53:11] tiempo. Se llamaron todos sus
[1:53:16] nombres para el comentario

[1:57:30] podemos continuar al punto
[1:57:33] cinco, que es un punto especial
[1:57:34] para los comentarios del señor
[1:57:36] Blumenfield. Señor Blumenfield,
[1:57:38] muchas gracias. En el número
[1:57:40] cinco hay muchos residentes del
[1:57:43] oeste del Valle que tienen
[1:57:44] muchas preocupaciones sobre una
[1:57:47] construcción cerca de un
[1:57:48] Country Club y está cerca de un
[1:57:52] lugar con un mayor riesgo de
[1:57:55] incendios. Aunque tenemos, eh,
[1:57:57] nuestra propia discreción de
[1:57:59] cambiar de zonas o algo así,
[1:58:01] pero necesitamos un informe
[1:58:03] completo del impacto
[1:58:05] medioambiental. Pero se permite
[1:58:07] acelerar este proyecto para que
[1:58:10] se apruebe. Eh, eh, sin, sin
[1:58:14] sicua y sin discreción de este
[1:58:18] Concejo, a pesar de ser más de
[1:58:20] 400 viviendas en EH en en
[1:58:26] calles de que tiene forma de
[1:58:29] culebra, Pero eso es una
[1:58:33] advertencia a todos ustedes.
[1:58:35] Quiere decir que según esta ley
[1:58:37] estatal puede pasar en
[1:58:38] cualquiera de los distritos y
[1:58:41] eso está pasando en nuestro
[1:58:43] distrito y puede presentar un
[1:58:47] peligro verdadero para muchas
[1:58:48] personas, y es un ejemplo de
[1:58:50] las consecuencias de los las
[1:58:53] leyes estatales que se
[1:58:54] aprobaron. Supuestamente esta
[1:58:58] es una solicitud incompleta
[1:59:02] porque no se entregarán.
[1:59:03] Entregarnos todos los
[1:59:05] documentos, pero vamos a usar
[1:59:09] cualquier herramienta que
[1:59:11] tengamos para poder detener eh
[1:59:15] este trámite para poder
[1:59:16] permitir un análisis completo
[1:59:18] en. Gracias a la Junta que ha
[1:59:22] expresado su inquietud acerca
[1:59:24] de este proyecto. En cuanto a
[1:59:26] este proyecto y pienso trabajar
[1:59:31] con los senadores estatales
[1:59:33] para poder abordar este asunto
[1:59:36] y el señor Stern ha indicado
[1:59:37] que tenemos unos unos proyectos
[1:59:40] de leyes que limitan estos eh
[1:59:43] estos informes de impacto y AP
[1:59:46] 20 11 es un gran proyecto de
[1:59:48] ley. Me gusta y la intención es
[1:59:52] buena. Pero lo que ha pasado es
[1:59:54] que hay proyectos de ley
[1:59:56] subsecuentes a ese que ha
[1:59:57] cambiado definiciones en el
[1:59:58] pasado año y en este caso es
[2:00:02] tan fácil construir esos
[2:00:05] apartamentos en en estos
[2:00:07] lugares y según el proyecto de
[2:00:10] ley original se permitía en un
[2:00:13] corredor comercial, pero en el
[2:00:15] proyecto de ley se cambió la
[2:00:17] definición de lo que es un
[2:00:18] corredor comercial. Entonces en
[2:00:21] Córdoba, simplemente por la EH,
[2:00:24] la anchura de este de las
[2:00:27] calles se considera un corredor
[2:00:30] comercial. Y no es verdad. Eso
[2:00:34] es algo que puede pasar en los
[2:00:38] departamentos eh asequibles en
[2:00:39] el sur de Los Ángeles, eh en la
[2:00:42] policía es algo que va a seguir
[2:00:44] pasando. Esa es una. Esa es una
[2:00:48] advertencia para todos ustedes.
[2:00:49] Así que por medio de este punto,
[2:00:52] podemos construir más claridad
[2:00:54] de de nuestra fiscalía eh
[2:00:58] Municipal sobre lo que son, eh,
[2:01:01] estas zonas de alto riesgo y si
[2:01:03] tenemos alguna facultad para
[2:01:05] oponerse a esta propuesta,
[2:01:08] Básicamente es una instrucción
[2:01:09] para que nuestros departamentos
[2:01:11] empiecen a trabajar en este
[2:01:13] asunto, Ojalá por medio de las
[2:01:15] amenazas de incendios nos da un
[2:01:17] poco de eh, de control, pero no
[2:01:19] lo sé, Ojalá por medio de un
[2:01:22] análisis podamos encontrar más,
[2:01:25] eh, soluciones. Así que es por
[2:01:27] eso que pido que voten. Sí en
[2:01:28] este punto. Gracias. Vamos a
[2:01:33] votar. Y el conteo de votos? 14
[2:01:37] votos a favor. Ahora, el señor
[2:01:40] Lee, antes del siguiente punto.
[2:01:44] Bueno, eh, Con mucha canción.
[2:01:47] Me voy a recusar del punto 22.
[2:01:49] Sé que es un asunto de sesión
[2:01:53] cerrada. Señor Kwan. Eso es su
[2:01:58] primera amonestación. Ahora
[2:02:03] podemos continuar al número
[2:02:05] nueve, que es un punto especial,
[2:02:08] según la señora Rodríguez, que
[2:02:09] ha presentado una modificación
[2:02:11] y hacer colada. Así que vamos a
[2:02:14] votar. Y el conteo de votos? 14
[2:02:15] votos a favor. Que sigue? Ahora
[2:02:18] podemos continuar al 11. Es un
[2:02:20] punto especial según el señor
[2:02:22] Blumenfield, para dar
[2:02:23] comentarios y presentar una
[2:02:25] modificación ya presentada.
[2:02:26] Señor Blumenfield. Creo que es
[2:02:31] importante usar las viviendas
[2:02:35] compartidas y he tenido mucho
[2:02:36] éxito con las viviendas
[2:02:38] compartidas. Es más eficaz
[2:02:42] financieramente y he usado mis
[2:02:45] fondos discrecionales para una
[2:02:46] organización que se llama share
[2:02:48] y CLS proporciona 1.700 $ de
[2:02:51] asistencia de vivienda. Pero
[2:02:53] tenemos que superar el desafío
[2:02:55] para para encontrar unidades
[2:02:57] que aceptan este monto máximo.
[2:03:01] Aunque las viviendas
[2:03:02] compartidas. Por ejemplo,
[2:03:03] cuatro personas que van a
[2:03:05] compartir una una vivienda de
[2:03:08] dos recámaras, podemos hacer
[2:03:12] que alcance nuestro dinero más.
[2:03:14] Así que podemos pagar, eh, por
[2:03:18] una venta que que puede cubrir
[2:03:21] las necesidades de cuatro
[2:03:23] personas. Lo que pasa es que el
[2:03:25] condado tiene un, eh, viviendas
[2:03:28] que están tomando los
[2:03:30] tomándolas todos. Y acabo de
[2:03:32] escuchar de otro proyecto que
[2:03:33] está pasando en mi distrito
[2:03:34] ahora mismo. Trabajamos duro
[2:03:36] con Edwin. Empezamos ese
[2:03:38] proyecto sigue en marcha y
[2:03:40] queremos llevar a locales a
[2:03:43] este nuevo apartamento y el
[2:03:45] condado dice que tenemos los
[2:03:46] fondos y como la ciudad no lo
[2:03:48] tiene, está moviendo toda la
[2:03:50] gente de todo el condado. Estos
[2:03:52] apartamentos. Eso es un un gran
[2:03:55] problema. Es por eso que ha
[2:03:57] agregado Edwin. Y creo que
[2:03:58] condado debería ser más
[2:04:00] responsables en compartir los
[2:04:02] recursos para la ciudad. Quién
[2:04:05] es el agente que está creando
[2:04:07] estas viviendas? Tenemos que
[2:04:10] defender esas viviendas y
[2:04:12] corresponder nuestros
[2:04:13] residentes con estas viviendas
[2:04:16] disponibles. Entonces,
[2:04:20] supuestamente me dijeron que ya
[2:04:22] existe y que no necesitamos
[2:04:24] esta modificación. Pero cada
[2:04:26] vez que intento aplicarla me
[2:04:28] dicen que no, que no se puede
[2:04:30] usar. Entonces eso es para que
[2:04:32] quede claro que podemos usar
[2:04:34] CLS Y así es, así de simple.
[2:04:37] Gracias, Gracias. Y ahora la
[2:04:41] concejal Rodríguez. Gracias,
[2:04:44] señor Blumenfield. Y por esa
[2:04:46] explicación. Nomás he, eh.
[2:04:53] Nomás quería comentar que una
[2:04:54] de las inquietudes que tenía de
[2:04:56] CLS es después de una de las
[2:04:58] auditorías originales en LASA y
[2:05:01] el uso de tierras y la
[2:05:03] combinación de fondos que nos
[2:05:05] ha llamado la atención en
[2:05:06] cuanto a nuestras inquietudes
[2:05:09] sobre cómo se maneja y cómo se
[2:05:11] administra. Pero con respecto a
[2:05:13] cómo se aplica a nuestro
[2:05:16] cumplimiento del Acuerdo de
[2:05:17] Alliance. Una cosa que quería
[2:05:20] mencionar y quería que ustedes
[2:05:22] presten atención porque creo
[2:05:24] que es algo que se va a
[2:05:27] administrar en el Departamento
[2:05:29] de Vivienda. Se trata de de
[2:05:32] cómo se puede aplicar y tengo
[2:05:36] esa inquietud porque hemos
[2:05:37] vivido la distribución
[2:05:40] inequitativa. Es en las
[2:05:41] operaciones de Inside Safe.
[2:05:43] Entonces quiero asegurar que la
[2:05:45] manera en que se aborda y que
[2:05:48] accede es disponible para todos
[2:05:50] los distritos de del Consejo.
[2:05:52] Para poder abordar a los
[2:05:56] campamentos que existen en cada
[2:05:57] uno de nuestros distritos. Y lo
[2:06:01] menciono porque todos deberían
[2:06:04] estar cuidadoso, eh cuidadosos
[2:06:07] de lo que eh de estos recursos
[2:06:10] y cómo aplican. Así que no
[2:06:12] debería ser un sistema de
[2:06:15] recompensa política para poder
[2:06:17] abusar de lo que, eh de las
[2:06:20] oportunidades. Y es algo que ya
[2:06:21] hemos visto en este proceso.
[2:06:23] Queremos que estemos atentos a
[2:06:27] cómo se distribuye y dónde se
[2:06:29] distribuye y cómo uno puede
[2:06:31] accederlo. También quisiera dar
[2:06:33] las gracias al CEO. Sé que ha
[2:06:35] sido parte del programa del
[2:06:36] plan que nos ha ayudado en
[2:06:40] navegar para poder cumplir con
[2:06:42] nuestra obligación de Alliance.
[2:06:44] Todos deberíamos estar
[2:06:45] enfocados en esto. Por qué? Y
[2:06:48] sé que a nadie le gusta, pero
[2:06:50] es un decreto que tenemos que
[2:06:52] cumplir. Así que nos están
[2:06:55] vigilando, nos están
[2:06:56] supervisando con todas nuestras
[2:06:58] acciones. Y, eh, después de
[2:07:01] tres años de incumplimiento,
[2:07:04] tenemos que hacerlo bien.
[2:07:06] Entonces quiero que estemos
[2:07:08] mirándolo bien para poder, eh,
[2:07:11] marcar esta casilla y cumplir
[2:07:13] con nuestra palabra de manera
[2:07:14] equitativa. Así no dejamos
[2:07:16] ningún concejal atrás en la
[2:07:20] oportunidad de acceder a esos
[2:07:22] recursos en cada uno de
[2:07:23] nuestros distritos. Gracias,
[2:07:26] señora Rodríguez. Vamos a votar.
[2:07:29] Y el conteo de votos 14 votos a
[2:07:33] favor. Qué sigue? Ahora podemos
[2:07:36] continuar al punto 20. Y ese es
[2:07:38] un punto especial, señor. El
[2:07:41] concejal Blumenfield. Concejal
[2:07:43] Blumenfield. Adelante. Estoy a
[2:07:46] favor de calles abiertas
[2:07:48] durante los dos eventos de
[2:07:49] Ciclavia que han tomado lugar.
[2:07:51] He dado fondos para mejorar
[2:07:54] este evento. Creo en Ciclavia,
[2:07:59] pero no estoy a favor de este
[2:08:01] punto. Eso es una protesta que
[2:08:03] voy a hacer. Sé que va a pasar,
[2:08:06] pero voy a votar. No. En este
[2:08:08] punto, se recomienda distribuir
[2:08:11] 2 millones de dólares para
[2:08:12] aceptar 3 millones de dólares
[2:08:13] para nueve calles abiertas. En
[2:08:17] nueve de estos eventos, solo
[2:08:18] hay uno que está en el Valle de
[2:08:21] San Fernando, donde donde viven
[2:08:24] el 40% de la ciudad de Los
[2:08:27] Ángeles. En el último ciclo de
[2:08:31] calles abiertos nos dieron 7EME
[2:08:36] los fondos para siete eventos y
[2:08:38] ni uno se ubicaba en el Valle
[2:08:41] de San Fernando. El motivo es
[2:08:44] para ganar el apoyo comunitario,
[2:08:46] para tener calles más seguras y
[2:08:49] eso es tan importante en el
[2:08:50] Valle como en otras partes de
[2:08:51] la ciudad. Y yo diría que es
[2:08:53] aún más importante. Como
[2:08:55] tenemos calles anchas y esto me
[2:08:57] molesta mucho que que siga
[2:08:59] pasando. Y no quiero decir no a
[2:09:03] fondos de subvención que nos
[2:09:04] van a llegar, pero tenemos que
[2:09:06] hacer algo y eso debería ser un
[2:09:09] programa de toda la ciudad y
[2:09:11] parámetro de todo el condado y
[2:09:14] Metro ha fracasado. En este
[2:09:16] punto voy a votar no? Concejal
[2:09:19] Rodríguez. Señor Blumenfield,
[2:09:22] gracias por llamar la atención
[2:09:24] a este punto y para nosotros
[2:09:26] que representamos el Valle de
[2:09:27] San Fernando y nuestros
[2:09:29] compañeros que eh están en la
[2:09:31] Junta de Metro, todos queremos
[2:09:34] recibir nuestra parte, así que
[2:09:36] me uno en su protesta y voto No,
[2:09:40] gracias señora Rodríguez. Vamos
[2:09:42] a votar y el conteo de votos?
[2:09:46] 12 votos a favor, dos en contra.
[2:09:48] Que sigue? Ahora? Podemos
[2:09:52] terminar la reunión regular y
[2:09:55] empezar la reunión especial.
[2:09:57] Especial? Ok, voy a pasar lista.
[2:10:02] Bloomfield, Hernández. Obrado.
[2:10:05] Lee. Lee. Padilla Park. Ramón
[2:10:08] Rodríguez, Soto Martínez y
[2:10:09] otros 14 miembros presentes y
[2:10:11] un quórum. Qué tenemos que
[2:10:15] votar? Es el 43 donde se ha
[2:10:18] realizado un comentario público
[2:10:20] y oh! Y necesitamos diez votos
[2:10:23] a favor, Señora FISCAL Oh,
[2:10:26] señor Fiscal, perdón para el
[2:10:29] público que está presente para
[2:10:30] dar su comentario público
[2:10:32] durante la reunión especial. El
[2:10:34] único punto disponible para dar
[2:10:36] su comentario público es el 43.
[2:10:40] Entonces si escribieron es para
[2:10:42] dar su comentario en en 43 no
[2:10:44] se va a aceptar el comentario
[2:10:47] general. Y si tenemos algún
[2:10:51] comentario público. Comments on
[2:10:58] this item. Si quieren dar su
[2:11:00] comentario público, por favor
[2:11:01] hagan fila. Qué bueno verle,
[2:11:05] señor Spengler. Creo que es la
[2:11:07] primera vez que le veo en 2026.
[2:11:13] Adelante, ándale. Tiene un
[2:11:14] minuto? Muy bien, gracias.
[2:11:17] Nomás quiero decir que en
[2:11:19] cuanto a la crisis de vivienda,
[2:11:21] hay muchas cosas que podemos
[2:11:23] hacer. Sé que por medio de este
[2:11:24] informe estamos encontrando
[2:11:26] nuestras opciones en la iglesia
[2:11:28] de Cientología. Es uno de los
[2:11:30] propietarios más grandes en Los
[2:11:32] Ángeles y la mayoría de sus
[2:11:33] propiedades están vacías. Por
[2:11:35] qué negocian con ellos? Para
[2:11:37] poder comprar sus edificios y
[2:11:39] pueden usarlos para las
[2:11:41] viviendas. Hay tantos edificios
[2:11:43] vacíos y es un una manera de,
[2:11:47] eh, agarrar las tierras. Y cómo
[2:11:50] no quieren pagar a su gente.
[2:11:52] Prefieren comprar más, más
[2:11:54] terreno. Pueden usar sus
[2:11:56] estacionamientos, sus edificios.
[2:11:58] No sé por qué lo investigan. Es.
[2:12:00] Siguen quitando la ciudad y no
[2:12:02] contribuye en nada. Incluso si
[2:12:05] no lo quieren comprar, pueden.
[2:12:07] No tienen que. Eh. No tiene que
[2:12:09] comprarlo si no quieren. Pero
[2:12:11] pueden usar esos edificios como
[2:12:13] quitan y no contribuyen.
[2:12:15] Deberían de aceptarlo. Y son
[2:12:18] muchos edificios. Antes del
[2:12:21] siguiente comentarista voy a
[2:12:23] llamar todos los nombres que
[2:12:24] aparecen en la agenda especial
[2:12:27] en la. Este es un punto, eh
[2:12:38] relacionado con los fondos de
[2:12:40] las. Espero que se designen
[2:12:44] estos fondos a proporcionar
[2:12:47] viviendas y servicios, porque
[2:12:50] lo que hemos visto en el pasado
[2:12:52] es que no se están
[2:12:53] distribuyendo estos fondos de
[2:12:55] manera correcta y la gente no
[2:12:57] tiene la vivienda que necesitan.
[2:13:00] Es por eso que hay tanta gente
[2:13:02] en la calle. No están haciendo
[2:13:06] el esfuerzo para hacer
[2:13:09] disponible estas viviendas y
[2:13:11] que sea de buena, sean de buena
[2:13:13] condición también. Y es una de
[2:13:18] las muchas razones por las
[2:13:20] cuales hay tanta gente en la
[2:13:22] calle. No tienen las viviendas
[2:13:24] ni los servicios disponibles
[2:13:26] para esas personas que no
[2:13:28] tienen casa, pero a lo mejor
[2:13:30] van a usar los fondos
[2:13:34] equivocadamente y seguir
[2:13:35] haciendo válidas y limpiezas,
[2:13:36] porque a esto le gusta hacer.
[2:13:44] Hola, comentario general para
[2:13:47] vivienda quiero agregar a lo
[2:13:49] que dijo ahorita. Obviamente si
[2:13:54] el punto es que no estamos, no
[2:13:56] nos interesa Cientología
[2:13:59] ayudando a la gente sin
[2:14:00] vivienda porque no lo hacen,
[2:14:01] pero si le preguntan a
[2:14:02] Cientología por qué no usamos
[2:14:04] sus edificios vacíos y
[2:14:06] estacionamientos y hoteles
[2:14:07] saben que te van a decir no?
[2:14:09] Por qué? Porque solo están
[2:14:11] interesados en infiltrar los
[2:14:13] programas que ayudan a la gente
[2:14:15] sin hogar, pero lo que hacen es
[2:14:16] cuando infiltran esos programas.
[2:14:19] Ya están llevando a esta gente
[2:14:22] sin vivienda a situaciones
[2:14:24] horrendas, porque no, no creen
[2:14:28] en tener ayuda, no pagan
[2:14:31] impuestos, no hacen nada que no
[2:14:33] sea utilizar los recursos de la
[2:14:35] ciudad. Es el departamento de
[2:14:37] policía para eventos privados,
[2:14:40] pero cuando van a preguntarles
[2:14:42] a ayudar la ciudad con el
[2:14:44] problema de gente sin hogar
[2:14:45] porque tiene 1.000.000.000 de
[2:14:47] dólares, la mayor cantidad de
[2:14:50] estados en Los Ángeles,
[2:14:51] entonces por favor, traten de
[2:14:53] hacer eso. Siguiente
[2:14:56] comentarista. Sí. Bueno. Buenos
[2:15:05] días. Blanqueadores de
[2:15:10] capitales. Quieren blanquear
[2:15:13] capitales de una fuente por 30
[2:15:16] millones de dólares. Que los
[2:15:20] llama el FBI. O no tienen el
[2:15:23] dinero. Van a gastar dinero que
[2:15:25] no tienen y tratan de
[2:15:27] blanquearlo para tenerlo de
[2:15:29] vuelta en los fondos generales.
[2:15:30] Y reclaman de manera falso que
[2:15:33] no tiene impacto fiscal. Es
[2:15:35] fraude. No tienen este dinero,
[2:15:37] pero sin embargo lo van a
[2:15:39] seguir haciendo. Pero es
[2:15:40] solamente un recordatorio que
[2:15:42] su colega Karen Price no va a
[2:15:44] poder votar para ese tema,
[2:15:46] porque él está ahí en el
[2:15:48] edificio de corte criminal.
[2:15:49] Entonces, si quieren ver algo
[2:15:51] divertido, vayan ahí cruzando
[2:15:53] la calle al edificio en el
[2:15:55] tercer piso, y pueden ver el
[2:15:57] gran trabajo que ha estado
[2:15:59] haciendo, llenando sus
[2:16:00] bolsillos como el resto de
[2:16:02] ustedes. Que tengan lindo día.
[2:16:07] Bueno, eso se acaba con
[2:16:09] comentario público para la
[2:16:10] reunión especial. El consejo
[2:16:12] quiere ir adelante para el tema
[2:16:14] 43. Podemos abrir la lista para
[2:16:16] 43 y cerrar los votos 14 a

[2:17:28] temas, no? Bueno, estamos en
[2:17:30] sesión cerrada para 22 y 23
[2:17:33] miembros. Varias oficinas
[2:17:36] pidieron que tengamos hasta dos
[2:17:38] miembros presentes de su equipo
[2:17:41] para estas conversaciones, para
[2:17:42] una variedad de razones.
[2:17:44] Entonces voy a pedir que todos
[2:17:46] respeten este. Normalmente
[2:17:48] hacemos uno. En este caso, van
[2:17:49] a ser dos. Entonces, si usted
[2:17:51] no viene aquí empleados de la
[2:17:54] ciudad para el tema que estamos
[2:17:55] conversando, un miembro de un
[2:17:57] equipo el la oficina del fiscal.

[3:48:25] Here's what's happening in LA
[3:48:28] this week. This is LA currents.
[3:48:42] This is about all of us. It's
[3:48:43] about choosing to believe in our
[3:48:46] city again and proving it with
[3:48:49] action. And no matter what our
[3:48:50] city faces, LA never, ever gives
[3:48:54] up on.
[3:52:28] You.
[3:54:11] The number one cause of
[3:54:12] preventable death after injury
[3:54:14] is bleeding someone who is
[3:54:16] severely bleeding can bleed to
[3:54:18] death in as little as five
[3:54:19] minutes. Minutes count in your
[3:54:22] lAFD. Thanks you for learning
[3:54:24] how to stop the bleed by
[3:54:26] following the ABCs. If someone
[3:54:28] has an injury with blood
[3:54:30] spurting out of the wound,
[3:54:31] clothing soaked in blood,
[3:54:33] bleeding, that won't stop or

[3:56:39] The Lankershim Arts Center was
[3:56:41] constructed. In 1939, when it
[3:56:46] was opened in 1939. It was
[3:56:49] originally a la Department of
[3:56:52] Water and Power Building. The
[3:56:57] city of L.A. became the owner of
[3:56:59] the Lankershim Arts Center when
[3:57:00] it was declared as a historical,
[3:57:03] cultural monument on the plaque.
[3:57:06] Its purpose was that it is an
[3:57:08] example of adaptive reuse. The
[3:57:12] front building is actually an
[3:57:15] example of streamline modern
[3:57:17] design. And then if you come
[3:57:22] here after, I think it's like 5
[3:57:26] or 6:00, there's like lighting
[3:57:28] panels that will turn on and
[3:57:30] then you get to see the full
[3:57:32] kind of marquee of the
[3:57:34] Lancashire Arts Center. We host
[3:57:37] a bevy of productions, be it
[3:57:40] dance productions, music
[3:57:43] productions. Sometimes we'll
[3:57:44] have a film screening, uh, art.
[3:57:47] I think that sort of flexibility
[3:57:48] is something that brings me back
[3:57:51] every time. The theater is very
[3:57:53] intimate here. It really feels
[3:57:56] like you're just right up in
[3:57:57] front of the talent when you
[3:58:00] come and watch a show here. We
[3:58:03] also do youth programing here.
[3:58:05] We work with a different local
[3:58:07] artist to be able to provide
[3:58:09] free programing for children to
[3:58:12] learn how to sew. We have a
[3:58:13] fashion class. We have music
[3:58:16] classes specifically for
[3:58:18] percussion and drums. We also
[3:58:21] have another music class for
[3:58:22] piano, and then we also have a
[3:58:25] dance studio. It's in our
[3:58:26] mezzanine that is for our dance
[3:58:29] class that we have here. Our
[3:58:32] mission here is just to grow the
[3:58:36] performing arts. Really. So
[3:58:38] whether it be someone trying to
[3:58:40] bring out their own original
[3:58:42] productions or like sometimes we
[3:58:44] even have different groups come
[3:58:47] in to teach after school
[3:58:48] classes. Being able to grow the
[3:58:50] performing arts in a community
[3:58:52] is what makes Lankershim Art
[3:58:54] center stand out. The city
[3:58:58] investing into places like this
[3:59:00] is because it gives a place for
[3:59:03] people that were not as
[3:59:05] confident. The ability to
[3:59:07] express themselves and. That is
[3:59:18] so important just for our mental
[3:59:19] health as well as for like the
[3:59:22] health of the community. And it
[3:59:25] just makes a world a better
[3:59:25] place. We look forward to having
[3:59:29] you here at Lankershim Arts
[3:59:31] Center. Whether it be taking
[3:59:32] part in our free programing as
[3:59:35] well as being able to come and
[3:59:37] just watch a movie or watch a
[3:59:38] show, we look forward to having
[3:59:40] you over here on Instagram. Our
[3:59:42] Instagram handle is DCA
[3:59:44] underscore lnk. You can also
[3:59:46] find out more about us on

[3:59:51] That's our website
[4:01:06] .
[4:01:06] The Tosco Theater is located in
[4:01:09] Canoga Park. There is so much
[4:01:13] already here to offer cultural
[4:01:16] events, performances, folks do
[4:01:18] annual Dia de Los Muertos
[4:01:20] festivals. There is art walks,
[4:01:21] there's musical events, there's
[4:01:23] jazz, and I feel like we have
[4:01:26] the privilege to be added in
[4:01:30] that offering. The space had
[4:01:34] been left a little bit weary.
[4:01:38] And so when the city came in to
[4:01:41] renovate the space, it was
[4:01:41] offered another chance to
[4:01:44] breathe new life into the arts.
[4:01:45] Here. In the Tosco Theater is
[4:01:50] here for everyone. It is here
[4:01:54] for young artists who are just
[4:01:56] starting out to the professional
[4:01:58] artists who are here to dream up
[4:02:00] their new vision and we're here
[4:02:02] for the community at large and
[4:02:04] all of our community events. One
[4:02:08] of our signature events is
[4:02:10] called walking in our Light.
[4:02:11] This idea of how do we help
[4:02:14] people to encourage them to
[4:02:16] think about the light that they
[4:02:18] bring and to show appreciation
[4:02:21] for those who help to nurture
[4:02:22] that light. So from that idea,
[4:02:24] we thought, well, let's let's
[4:02:26] walk in our light. Let us have
[4:02:30] stories along the way where
[4:02:31] people can stop and hear
[4:02:33] performances and storytelling of
[4:02:34] other people saying, this is my
[4:02:36] light, this is how I shine it.
[4:02:38] And these are the people I want
[4:02:40] to show appreciation to. So we
[4:02:41] do this walk around the block
[4:02:43] and then we end up with a little
[4:02:45] gathering and performances
[4:02:46] inside and lots of time to just
[4:02:47] reflect on. Yeah, this is my
[4:02:50] life, you know? And these are
[4:02:51] the people who've helped me get
[4:02:53] there. Our communities don't
[4:02:58] always see what the city of Los
[4:03:00] Angeles provides them, providing
[4:03:02] access to the arts says to me,
[4:03:04] that's a city that's proud of
[4:03:07] the stories it wants to tell.
[4:03:08] The people who want to tell
[4:03:11] them, and the ways that they
[4:03:11] want to tell them. A space like
[4:03:15] this gives opportunity for folks
[4:03:18] of all ages, cultures,
[4:03:22] experience to say, I can be
[4:03:25] seen. I can be heard, and I'm
[4:03:28] walking in these doors and it
[4:03:30] feels welcoming. It feels
[4:03:32] nurturing, and people are
[4:03:34] excited to listen to me and to
[4:03:36] hear me. We don't have that all
[4:03:38] the time, so it's a it's a live
[4:03:41] space that's here to welcome and
[4:03:44] nurture those sparks of
[4:03:46] inspiration and vision. There's
[4:03:51] a few ways to find us. We are
[4:03:53] always on social media, so we
[4:03:55] are on Instagram. We have a
[4:03:56] Facebook page. You can go to the
[4:03:59] Department of Cultural Affairs.

[4:27:19] LA. We have put child sex
[4:27:22] abusers behind bars for up to 11
[4:27:26] years. Misdemeanor is only one
[4:27:28] year and we take these crimes
[4:27:30] incredibly seriously. It is said
[4:27:32] that failure is an orphan.
[4:27:35] Success has many fathers. I
[4:27:36] think it isn't just that success
[4:27:39] has many fathers. I think that
[4:27:40] it is only by coming together.
[4:27:42] It is only with the jurisdiction
[4:27:44] of the District Attorney's
[4:27:45] office that goes to Long Beach,
[4:27:47] where I can't go. That goes to
[4:27:50] Pomona, where I can't go. That
[4:27:53] really treats these crimes with
[4:27:54] felony that we will finally,
[4:27:56] finally make a real lasting dent
[4:27:59] in the open air exploitation of
[4:28:01] our young people. I thank you
[4:28:03] all for being here and for
[4:28:05] giving this issue your attention
[4:28:08] . And I join our district
[4:28:09] attorney and our Chief of Police
[4:28:12] and our, uh, Council president
[4:28:15] in urging our community to come
[4:28:16] forward and help us do this
[4:28:18] work. Let's keep the young
[4:28:20] people safe. Let's shut down the
[4:28:22] places where trafficking occurs
[4:28:25] . Let's put John's behind bars,
[4:28:28] if that's what it takes to give
[4:28:30] them the seriousness of the
[4:28:31] consequences. And let's put the
[4:28:33] predators away for a long time.
[4:28:34] Thank you. Thank you much very
[4:28:39] much. Our city attorney, Heidi
[4:28:41] Feldstein Soto, I'd now like to
[4:28:43] call another elected leader to
[4:28:46] speak who has demonstrated a
[4:28:48] commitment not just over months
[4:28:51] , but over years to ending human
[4:28:53] trafficking. Our Los Angeles
[4:28:55] City Council president, Marquis
[4:28:56] Harris Dawson, thank you so much
[4:29:01] to all of our law enforcement
[4:29:01] leaders that are with us and
[4:29:03] community leaders, faith leaders
[4:29:04] that are with us today. Uh I can
[4:29:07] always be counted on and always
[4:29:10] appreciate the opportunity to
[4:29:12] stand and look. This problem,
[4:29:13] which has been along this
[4:29:16] corridor, my entire life and I'm
[4:29:19] not young. I'll just put it that
[4:29:21] way. This problem has been there
[4:29:23] my entire life, and one thing we
[4:29:26] wanted to do, uh, as an elected
[4:29:29] official, was confronted,
[4:29:31] confronted directly and try to
[4:29:32] do so in an effective way. And
[4:29:35] when we got on the phone and
[4:29:37] started calling people and
[4:29:38] saying, you need to see what's
[4:29:41] happening on Figueroa, what's
[4:29:42] happening to the parishioners
[4:29:43] who come to church, the people
[4:29:45] who live here, the small
[4:29:47] businesses. But most
[4:29:48] importantly, the victims of sex
[4:29:50] trafficking. We think you'll
[4:29:52] join up and want to do something
[4:29:54] about it. And I couldn't be more
[4:29:56] grateful to our to anyone more
[4:30:00] than I am. Our city attorney who
[4:30:03] , when we took the city attorney
[4:30:06] on the ride along, she expressed
[4:30:07] the shock. She expressed the
[4:30:09] anger and the disgust about what
[4:30:12] was happening to our people here
[4:30:14] on Figueroa in our city, in the
[4:30:17] city of Los Angeles, and got
[4:30:19] busy right away. And literally
[4:30:20] every time I spoke to her after
[4:30:23] that, it was something about
[4:30:25] Figueroa, and she pulled
[4:30:26] together a task force, which
[4:30:29] included all of the law
[4:30:31] enforcement agencies that you
[4:30:32] see with us today, and got busy
[4:30:35] when our district attorney was
[4:30:37] elected. Our very first
[4:30:39] conversation. I think we said,
[4:30:40] hello, nice to meet you, by the
[4:30:42] way. Figueroa. And he said yes.
[4:30:45] Heidi already talked to me about
[4:30:47] it. So we're on top of it. And
[4:30:49] they put extra octane into the
[4:30:52] gas tank and dealing with this
[4:30:54] problem and our, our chief of
[4:30:56] police and LAPD has had fits and
[4:30:58] starts with Figueroa for decades
[4:31:01] and decades. And decades. But at
[4:31:03] a time when resources are
[4:31:05] getting tighter and tighter for
[4:31:07] the police department, I'm
[4:31:08] extremely grateful to the
[4:31:10] department that they've
[4:31:11] continued to prioritize Figueroa
[4:31:13] and dealing with this issue. And
[4:31:16] there is progress being made.
[4:31:18] The folks who live here and go
[4:31:20] to church here and do business
[4:31:22] here, they can tell you it's not
[4:31:23] perfect. It's not what it should
[4:31:25] be, but it's a little bit better
[4:31:27] than it was the week before and
[4:31:29] a lot better than it was the
[4:31:30] year before. With the help of
[4:31:32] the City Attorney's office and
[4:31:33] the police department, we've
[4:31:35] closed six of the motels that
[4:31:37] were the most notorious for
[4:31:40] trafficking. We've installed
[4:31:42] cameras and folks who know me
[4:31:44] know I'm not a big fan of
[4:31:45] government surveillance. But if
[4:31:46] you're going to get out of your
[4:31:48] bed and get in your car and
[4:31:50] drive to Figueroa to buy sex
[4:31:52] with a minor, then we're going
[4:31:53] to surveil you and we're going
[4:31:56] to hold you accountable. So if
[4:31:56] you look up there to the north,
[4:31:59] to my left, you'll see a little
[4:32:00] camera on the top of the light
[4:32:02] pole. We're keeping track of
[4:32:03] who's coming when you're coming
[4:32:05] , when you pull over and when
[4:32:06] you stop. And you'll get
[4:32:08] everybody a dear John letter
[4:32:09] from now. The district attorney
[4:32:12] and the city attorney saying,
[4:32:14] hey, you were in an area where
[4:32:15] trafficking is going on. And
[4:32:18] here's a picture of your car and
[4:32:19] your driver's license number.
[4:32:20] And we just hope that the
[4:32:22] trafficker isn't the only person
[4:32:25] in the house that sees that
[4:32:26] letter is all I'm going to say
[4:32:28] about that. And so we're excited
[4:32:30] about the progress that we're
[4:32:31] making. We think much more needs
[4:32:32] to be done. I am here to fully
[4:32:34] endorse and ask everybody we
[4:32:36] know. We'll go door to door if
[4:32:38] we have to. Uh, Mr. District
[4:32:39] Attorney to make sure people
[4:32:42] respond to the survey. I can
[4:32:44] tell you the response of the
[4:32:46] council member is, yes to all
[4:32:48] options, one through seven. Uh
[4:32:50] but we want to encourage people
[4:32:51] to get involved because
[4:32:53] Sacramento has people from all
[4:32:55] over the state who don't have
[4:32:57] any idea what's happening here
[4:32:58] on Figueroa or in long Beach or
[4:33:01] in Pomona, and so hearing from
[4:33:03] our people is going to be
[4:33:05] important to them and important
[4:33:06] to this process. So I thank you
[4:33:09] for getting behind this and
[4:33:10] reaching out to our folks and
[4:33:12] giving everyday people an
[4:33:14] opportunity to get involved,
[4:33:16] make their community better. But
[4:33:17] most importantly, do everything
[4:33:19] they can to protect our young
[4:33:21] people from this terrible
[4:33:22] scourge. Thank you all so much.
[4:33:23] Thank you
