2026-09-30 - City Council

00:09Four is the withdrawal

00:11Management Facility on the

00:13second floor and the bottom

00:14floor is an urgent care and then

00:16stage five is a building full of

00:19different subacute facilities.

00:21So mental health rehabilitation

00:22centers, psychiatric health

00:25facilities typically will be

00:27able to work with clients longer

00:28so that they really, truly

00:30stabilize. A residential

00:38withdrawal management facility

00:40is a 24 over seven space where

00:43people come inside. They're

00:44admitted to a program and

00:45they're provided with

00:46medications, counseling

00:47services, and supportive

00:49services to safely withdraw from

00:51or when they stop using

00:53substances. And this is also a

00:55place where people can plan the

00:57next phase of their recovery,

00:59whether they go on for ongoing

01:00residential care, whether they

01:02do outpatient treatment, plus

01:03housing services. So this is

01:05really an entryway into

01:07recovery. Both facilities be so

01:08helpful because they provide us

01:11different needed levels of care

01:12for whatever people are going

01:14through. I mean, if you take

01:16into consideration even how this

01:18place looks, colors, layout,

01:20everything, and for me, it's

01:22always been about including a

01:23space at the table for our

01:25community to have input. So at

01:26every stage of this, they've

01:28been made aware and they've been

01:30active participants in all of

01:31this. This came about because of

01:33their input and because of their

01:35thirst and hunger to see

01:38something better here, too,

01:39because it's been hard hitting

01:41in this particular part of LA

01:44County and the city of LA. From

01:49humble beginnings to making

01:50changes, both big and small,

01:53it's the diverse voices that

01:55come together that have made Los

01:56Angeles vibrant and flourishing

02:00for 245 years as the city

02:02continues to move forward and

02:03advance in technology and

02:06innovation, it's important to

02:07remember where it all started

02:09with a handful of people coming

02:12together and looking out for

02:13each other, no matter how big LA

02:16becomes, it will always, at its

02:19heart, be a community that cares

02:22for everyone. Thanks for

02:24watching. Catch all these

25:16THAT AFFECTED THE CITY.

25:18SO YOU HAVE, ALL THIS VERY SLOW

25:22RECOVERY AND, IT SEEMS TO BE

25:24MORE REBUILDING ABOUT THE MAGA

25:30AND YOU GOT OFFICER TRACI

25:33TRYING TO TRICK HER

25:52SO THAT ONE, HAS BEEN HANDLED

25:55EVEN MORE POORLY THAN THE

25:57I WONDER WHY BOYLE HEIGHTS HAS

25:59BEEN STRUGGLING TO GET MORE

26:03RECOVERY EVEN MORE SO THAN

26:12I WONDER IF IT DOES.

26:15BUT YOU REALLY NEED TO REBUILD

26:19ACCEPT DON'T REBUILD THE LINAGE

26:22FACILITY IF THEY'RE GOING TO

27:07BASS.

27:09YOU WANT TO CODIFY SOME OF THAT

27:12STUFF SO. IN YOUR EXECUTIVE

27:16DIRECTIVE 17, YOU MENTION THAT

27:18YOU WANT TO PUT FINES IMPACT

27:21FEES ON ANY PROPERTY OWNERS

27:22WITHIN THE CITY WHO PROSITES

27:25SITE CONTROL FOR IMMIGRANT

27:28ENFORCEMENT OPERATIONS.

27:29SO I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WILL

27:31THERE BE SOME SITE FEES, SOME

27:34FEES, IMPACT FEES PLACED ON

27:37EVERY LAPD PROPERTY IN THE CITY.

27:40SO IMPACT FEES ON HEADQUARTERS

27:44AND EVERY LAPD POLICE STATION

27:45IN THE CITY BECAUSE THEY ARE

27:48CONTINUING TO ASSIST ICE, SO

27:50LET'S TAKE SOME MONEY OUT OF

32:47KNOW, I ACTUALLY USE MY BODY AS

32:49MY BUSINESS.

32:50THAT'S THE ONLY INCOME OF MY

32:52EMPLOYMENT.

32:54AND THEN, WHEN I WAS USING MY

32:57BODY, AS MY SHOP, AND I JUST

32:59BELIEVE IT IS UNREASONABLE AND

33:03UNLAWFUL FOR THE CITY TO TAX ME

33:06BECAUSE I'M NOT USING A CITY

33:08PROPERTY.

33:09I'M NOT USING A REAL ESTATE, I

33:11AM SIMPLY USING MY BODY AS MY

33:14MAIN SOURCE OF BUSINESS INCOME

33:18ON FIGUEROA AND 77th, THERE IS

33:21NO REASON FOR ME TO BEING TAX

34:04VIOLATE MY RIGHTS.

34:05FOR EXAMPLE, FOR EXAMPLE, THE

34:08RIGHTS OF NOT HAVING A

34:10HEALTHCARE.

34:11FOR EXAMPLE NOT GETTING PAID

34:13ENOUGH OR OVERTIME PAY.

34:14FOR EXAMPLE, NOT GETTING

34:17HOLIDAY OFF, FOR EXAMPLE, NO

34:19TIME LIMIT FOR WEEKLY HOURS.

34:22THOSE ARE A LOT OF THE

1:03:52ADVISORY BOARD, I THINK IT'S A

1:03:55GOOD IDEA BUT THERE SHOULD BE A

1:03:57TIME LIMIT.

1:03:57ONE OF THE EASIEST THINGS TO DO

1:04:01IS MANIPULATE NUMBERS AND

1:04:03PEOPLE CAN STAY BELOW CERTAIN

1:04:06NUMBERS AND KEEP THE CITY OUT

1:04:09OF REVENUE THAT THEY DESERVE.

1:04:11BUT AGAIN, MAKE A TIME LIMIT

1:09:38WE NEED TO DO MORE TO KEEP

1:09:41BUSINESSES IN THE CITY OF LOS

1:09:42ANGELES.

1:09:46THAT, IS BY LOWERING THE TAX

1:09:49RATES FOR SMALL BUSINESSES.

1:09:52BECAUSE LET ME TELL YOU WHAT IS

1:09:53GOING ON.

1:09:54I JUST MET A BUSINESS OWNER A

1:09:56FEW YEARS AGO, WHO MOVED OUT OF

1:10:00CITY OF LOS ANGELES TO THE CITY

1:10:02OF ORANGE IN ORANGE COUNTY

1:10:04CALIFORNIA.

1:10:04AND THE REASON HE DID THAT, IS

1:10:07BECAUSE THE TAXES ARE A LOT

1:10:09CHEAPER, IT'S MORE AFFORDABLE

1:10:10TO DO BUSINESS OVER THERE

1:10:12INSTEAD THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES.

1:10:14SO I WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOU
