2026-10-20 - City Council

00:03years, Quebec has provided our

00:05county with these aircraft,

00:08along with the skilled pilots

00:09and mechanics who operate and

00:11maintain them during peak fire

00:13season here in Los Angeles

00:14County. These aircrafts give our

00:18firefighters a powerful tool,

00:19but equipment alone cannot keep

00:21our communities safe. While fire

00:24safety requires all of us to do

00:27our part. So we're we're happy

00:36to be here every year and also

00:38for our Quebec pilots, it's a

00:39way to gain specialized

00:42expertise in training in a

00:43terrain that's that's certainly

00:45very different from Quebec. So

00:48every year, the aircraft and the

00:51crews come to support Los

00:53Angeles County Fire Department

00:55in their firefighting efforts

00:57during the busiest firefighting

00:59season in the year. These are

01:03really model examples of our

01:06governments that are working

01:07together to protect our

01:08communities.

01:2425 years ago today, I was part

01:27of a Los Angeles fire Department

01:30urban search and rescue team

01:33that was deployed to Ground Zero

01:35right after the nine over 11

01:38attacks.

01:47We're here to remember the

01:52incidents of nine over 11. The

01:53lives that were lost, the people

01:55that were lost. But to also

01:57remember how we came together as

02:00a country, they were our

02:00neighbors at that moment, and we

02:02helped them where they went

02:05because people were trapped.

02:07They went because they

02:10recognized that people needed

02:12help and they went because they

02:15were firefighters. There was a

02:20terrible sense of helplessness

02:22watching what was happening.

02:243000 miles away, wondering about

02:25people you cared about while

02:28knowing that police officers,

02:29firefighters, paramedics. And so

02:32many others were running

02:33directly toward something the

02:35rest of the world was watching

02:36in horror. Today we're here at

02:42the Franco-chinese Training

02:43Center, commemorating the 25th

02:46anniversary of the nine over 11

02:48attacks on the twin Towers.

02:50We're uplifting and remembering

02:52all of the first responders, all

02:54of the people who stepped up to

02:56be brave to save people's lives

02:58and to remind the generations

03:01that have come after the attack

03:02of what occurred, so that we

03:04never, ever forget what bravery

03:07looks like in this country and

03:08what it looks like for people to

03:10step up to save people. Nine

03:12over 11 2001 was a very sad day

03:17. It was a terrible day in the

03:18history of our country and the

03:21history of the world. So we're

03:21here to thank everyone. We're

03:25here to honor everyone, and

03:26we're here to say we don't want

03:29this to happen again. We can't

03:31let this happen again in the

03:33city. Now we go on thousands of

03:35calls every day. We know that

03:37we're doing this to provide a

03:40service for the for our

03:43community. So as we're

03:44experiencing crises, as we're

03:45experiencing different horrors

03:46that intend to divide us, we

03:48must follow the steps of people

03:50from nine over 11 and what they

03:52did and stick together and

03:54protect our communities. Oh, say

03:58, can you see by the dawn's

04:03early light, what so proudly we

04:09hailed at the twilight's last

04:13gleaming. We are the city of Los

04:20Angeles with the Mayor's Office

04:21of Economic Opportunity, and we

04:22are here today to celebrate the

04:24kickoff of the Angelino Court

04:26program for the 2026, 2027 year.

04:28The Angelino Courts program is a

04:31ten month internship program.

04:33All 300 Angelenos who are here

04:35today are ages 18 to 30, who

04:37receive work experience for ten

04:38months in one of the six sectors

04:41that we offer, a majority of the

04:42Angelenos that are enrolled into

04:44our program are in school. So

04:45it's hard, you know, sometimes a

04:47lot of workplaces ask you to

04:50have 2 or 3 years worth of

04:52experience. So the Angelino

04:53Corps members program is

04:55awesome. They're learning hands

04:57on right there. And then we are

04:58able to balance those working

05:01hours for them to still get work

05:02experience and being able to

05:04develop skills and add it to

05:05their resume. They're going to

05:07receive professional

05:08development. They're going to

05:09receive stipends monthly

05:11stipends for all of the work

05:12that they're doing for the city.

05:13And for the communities and the

05:15place that they call home. I'm

05:17one of the successful stories I

05:18have completed with the program.

05:20The ten month program and the

05:22current employment camp. I do

05:23have big plans. I'm actually

05:25going to get my master's in

05:27education, so hopefully in five

05:29years I'll be a school counselor

05:32myself. I was at Boyle High

05:33Technology User Center

05:34participant during my early

05:36years. It was difficult to get

05:38that work experience while being

05:40in school. But now for the last

05:42three years, I've been a full

05:43time case manager under the

05:44Angelino court program. Our hope

05:45is that by students

05:47participating in the Angelino

05:48court program that they're going

05:50to be able to set themselves up

05:51for the future. It's going to be

05:53important that you just come

05:54willing to learn. You're going

05:56to have a mentor that's going to

05:57set you up for success and work

05:59with you over the next ten

06:01months. Coming in. We know you

06:01already have something within

06:02you that's really pushing you.

06:04We tell everybody, take every

06:05single advantage of everything

06:06you can learn and just really,

06:07you know, explore it. Maybe you

06:09think you don't have a skill or

06:11an expertise yet, but once

06:13you're there, you actually learn

06:14that you do have some expertise.

06:15We're here to really help you

06:18grow those skills and just be

06:19able to be whatever it is you

06:21want to be. And wherever your

06:22goals take you. We're really

06:24there to support you and support

06:27on the 26th floor is the Hall of

06:30Mayors, featuring portraits of

06:32former Los Angeles mayors

06:34including Tom Bradley, who was

06:35the city's first black mayor,

06:37and its longest serving holding

06:40office from 1973 to 1993. Now

06:45this hall is just one of the

06:47many places in LA that honors

06:48people from the monuments in

06:49MacArthur Park and the memorials

06:52in Grant Park to the Hollywood

06:54Walk of Fame and the Grammy

06:55Museum. Recently, the iconic

06:58Mexican group Los Angeles Azules

07:00were honored for their decades

07:01of telling their stories to the

07:03music of Cumbia and Council

07:06member Imelda Padilla and others

07:08celebrated the group and their

07:09rich connection to the San

07:11Fernando Valley community.

07:15Today, in the community of

07:16Panorama City, we welcomed one

07:19of the most globally recognized

07:20cumbia groups from Mexico, Los

07:23Angeles Azules to name Van Nuys

07:25Boulevard and Chase Street.

07:26After them. There is no group as

07:30big as Grande with beautiful

07:32songs and lyrics like Los

07:34Angeles Azules and Here We Are

07:35today, estoy fan de Los Angeles

07:39Azules y desde muy tempranito

07:40estoy aqui, esperando llegaron

07:43ya Los ve ya grave mucho y me

07:45voy muy contenta de este evento.

07:47Qué nos estoy aqui super

07:49contenta porque Los Angeles

07:50azules vienen de ixtapalapa. Qué

07:52es donde vive mi familia y pues

07:55super orgullosa del talento de

07:56mi gente y podria porque esta

07:59aqui en mi ciudad. Qué esta

08:02ciudad? Van Nuys. Pues imaginate

08:05cada vez. Qué pasa por aqui. Me

08:06VA a ser recordar a mi a mi

08:07gente de Ella. This feels like a

08:11very full circle moment for me.

08:12But more than anything, it's a

08:14full circle moment for this

08:15community because we made sure

08:17that communities like Panorama

08:18City and Arleta were at the

08:20table about what they wanted in

08:22Van Nuys Boulevard and what we

08:24want are businesses that were

08:26happy to go shopping to. We want

08:29pocket parks that we can

08:30utilize. We want restaurants

08:32where we know we're going to be

08:35able to have a good time and be

08:36safe. Our community wants to

08:38come outside and celebrate our

08:40differences more than fight over

08:42them. Pedro de Los Angeles

08:47Azules ustedes van creciendo

08:48poco poquito yo hoy es el

08:50reconocimiento nos emociona

08:52mucho. Porque estamos aqui con

08:55todos ustedes cada uno de

08:57ustedes. Saben de alguna cancion

08:59de Los Angeles azules. Aqui en

09:01su Corazon. Panorama We are in

09:13the heart of the harbor.

09:15Wilmington, California. Part of

09:16the one five. And we are

09:18celebrating Labor Day. We have

09:19the 47th annual Labor Day Parade

09:23, rally and picnic right here in

09:26Banning Park. And besides

09:33advocating for workers in the

09:35workplace, we're also having a

09:36lot of fun. I am here

09:43celebrating with all the unions

09:46, which is extremely important,

09:47and that is to recognize our

09:50Labor Day every year. I tell

09:52everybody the unions have done

09:53an amazing job when it comes to

09:55looking for working class people

09:58, and that is what is important

09:59is that we make these people go

10:00to work every day, and for them

10:02to have someone to fight for

10:04them every day that is truly a

10:06blessing. This is an event where

10:07we're allowed to represent and

10:10to recognize the different

10:12organizations. The different the

10:15over 200 local unions that

10:17create the opportunities here in

10:18the harbor area that employ

10:20people that keep our community

10:22driving forward and are the

10:24economic drivers of everything

10:26that happened here in the harbor

10:27area. We have to honor all those

10:31who fought for our rights from

10:34the beginning. That's why we're

10:35here. It's because all those who

10:38fought for us, they got it done

10:40and we're going to keep on

10:42getting it done and happy labor

10:44Day to all, all the labor

10:46unions, all the trade unions,

10:47everybody. Let's do this unity

10:50in the community. Well, the

10:51labor movement has been so

10:54important to the development of

10:54this country. The labor movement

10:57brought us the 40 hour workweek.

10:58It brought many folks health

11:00benefits. It has brought folks

11:01safety in the workplace and so

11:03it's really important for us to

11:05make sure that we hang on to

11:06those values. My district has

11:08been watch to the Waterfront and

11:10here in the harbor area, we

11:12provide 1 in 9 jobs in the

11:15entire LA county. And so what's

11:17important for folks who have

11:19those jobs is to make sure we

11:20keep those jobs. So we're here

11:29at MacArthur Park tonight. It's

11:30the first fall Friday nights of

11:32the year. The biggest goal and

11:34motivation for fall Friday

11:35nights is really to bring

11:36families to the park. Fall

11:37Friday night is a part of our

11:40comprehensive strategy to

11:40improve neighborhood safety here

11:42in the MacArthur Park corridor

11:45and the Westlake Community,

11:46there's lots of negative

11:47narratives about this community,

11:49but really, people have a sense

11:51of pride where they live. I

11:53think we need more events like

11:55this. We need the city to be

11:56involved a little more so that

11:58the people can feel safe. You

11:59know, that they can have

12:01something to come to and not

12:01just the park that has

12:03challenges. We understand that

12:04there's a lot of need. We

12:06understand that kids just went

12:07back to school, that we're not

12:09only looking for activities for

12:10kids after school, but we're

12:12also just trying to assist

12:13families that are working hard

12:15to make it day by day. Keep our

12:18family source center has joined

12:19us to bring many more resources

12:21to this community, along with

12:22public health resources, food

12:25giveaways, recreation

12:27activities. We're just having a

12:28great time here in MacArthur

12:30Park, and it's so important

12:31because we really want to show

12:33how many families are here at

12:34the park. They're playing

12:36soccer, they're having lunch

12:37here, they're bringing their

12:38families. The more that we can

12:39supplement that by saying, hey,

12:40let's do a soccer clinic with

12:42you. Let's do some breakdancing,

12:43which is what's happening

12:45tonight. Tommy Junio is also

12:46going to be doing some food

12:48distribution. We're going to

12:49have some events coming up in

12:49October, you know, encourage the

12:52community to come out and have

12:52some fun. We're going to be

12:53having a Halloween event that is

12:56hosted by Recreation and Parks

12:57here on October 31st. We're

12:59going to be looking into hosting

13:00something for Dia de Los Muertos

13:02as well. So there's going to be

13:03a lot more events like this. And

13:05we're really excited to take

13:07part in them and to show the

13:08community that we're here with

13:08them. They can always call our

13:10office with any questions and

13:11any assistance that you might

13:13need. We're here to help. We're

13:14excited about families returning

13:16to MacArthur Park and more

13:17importantly, about activating

13:18the park differently. The goal

13:20is to have 1000 families every

13:23Friday, a fall Friday night.

13:24Looking forward to seeing you

13:25here. This is City Hall's

13:33observation deck on the 27th

13:36floor. What a sight. And right

13:37above us is the Lindbergh

13:39Beacon. Now, when City Hall

13:41opened in 1928, President Calvin

13:44Coolidge turned it on from the

13:45white House and today it only

13:47lights up for special occasions

13:49. Recently, in historic

13:51Filipinotown, there was a

13:52special occasion worth gathering

13:55for the hi fi fall Festival

13:57celebrated its one year

13:58anniversary, filled with music,

14:01local food vendors and the joy

14:02of people coming together. Today

14:09we are at Casa Corner at Hi-Fi

14:13Unidad Park. We are celebrating

14:15our one year anniversary of our

14:17event. What you can find is that

14:19it's just an all inclusive

14:21community event. Part of the

14:21reason we put this event on was

14:24because we wanted visibility for

14:25our culture. You're here for the

14:27first time. You're going to get

14:29a dose of Filipino music,

14:32Filipino art. This is one of the

14:34best ways to support local

14:37businesses, especially as we are

14:38facing gentrification and

14:40displacement in this community.

14:41You're going to hear several

14:42different languages that are not

14:44often represented in these

14:46systems, because we're taught to

14:48learn English from a young age,

14:51even in the Philippines. But

14:51here you're going to get to hear

14:54Tagalog spoken, maybe even

14:54Ilokano. What I found so

14:57appealing with Cancer Corner is

14:58that it touches all of my

15:00interests, community, give back

15:01along with working with local

15:03Los Angeles nonprofits as well

15:05as small businesses for example,

15:08La Cocina. They are local to

15:10this area, Echo Park, so not too

15:13far. The Filipino worker Center

15:14is here. My place here is today.

15:16They're offering free services

15:17to the community. We also offer

15:20mutual aid where we partnered

15:21with Vicente Family Farms and

15:24Temple Seafood Market. They have

15:26provided free groceries to the

15:27community members here. So while

15:29supplies last, we have free

15:30groceries. A lot of our

15:34performers have either

15:35connections in historic Filipino

15:37town are either brand new or

15:38they are local. Today is Fall

15:40Fest. We just had Summerfest in

15:43July and Spring Fest in April,

15:46and then we'll have again in

15:47winter sometime in December. I

15:49hope you get to come next time,

15:50because a lot of these systems

15:53in place want us to be by

15:55ourselves, and here you actually

15:57get to be with each other, even

15:59connect with a part of yourself

16:01that you can't experience

16:02anywhere else. These events are

16:03very important for our community

16:05because we need spaces where we

16:07can really celebrate each other,

16:08feel safe amongst each other,

16:10connect with each other,

16:11especially with the current

16:12climate of how things are. This

16:14is a community of made of

16:15immigrants. So we have this

16:18space here because we want to

16:19make sure people feel seen and

16:21safe and heard. Everyone please,

16:24I hope to see you soon here at

16:25the Next Corner Festival here in

16:27Historic Filipino Town Mga

16:29Kababayan kita po tayo dito sa

16:31kanto Corners, a historic

16:33Filipino town in Unidad Park.

16:41Come out and join us today at

16:42the Caribbean Heritage Festival.

16:44We are here and we're all

16:46bringing our special contents

16:46like our music, our food.

16:49There's clothing, so it's so

16:51important to come and connect

16:52and network with all the other

16:54countries here today. God's

16:56things for the kids too. It's

16:58amazing. Amazing day. And I'm

16:59glad to see all the

17:00representation. So I'm

17:02representing Belize, but we also

17:03got all the different countries

17:05in the Caribbean here. You know

17:06Trini, we got Barbados, we got

17:07Haiti, we got everybody Los

17:10Angeles is a big home to lots of

17:12people from the Caribbean, right

17:14here in the heart of the African

17:15American community. It's so

17:16important to have this

17:17celebration. So many of us come

17:19from the African continent and

17:20went through slavery. Some

17:21people went to the Caribbean and

17:23they came here. And so we're

17:25excited to celebrate the

17:25culture, the music, the fight,

17:27the struggle. That's present

17:29here in Los Angeles. Make sure

17:30that you incorporate all your

17:32friends into our community,

17:33because we kind of really need

17:35that in the LA area. It's always

17:37great to see us come together

17:38and celebrate one another. And

17:40again see that there's other

17:42people like us out here as well.

17:44We do this every year and we're

17:46going to continue to do it

17:48because the people call for it.

17:48South LA is where people want to

17:51be, where the Caribbean

17:51community wants to be.

17:52Eventually. We're going to have

17:54Carnival here like they do in

17:55Toronto and New York City, and

17:56other places around the globe.

17:58Los Angeles is a home to a

18:00powerful Caribbean community.

18:02Caribbean people. We're very

18:04warm. We're very we integrate a

18:05lot of people together. It's all

18:08about the food and the dancing

18:10and the music and just having a

18:12good time. We love everybody.

18:13It's a great day to come

18:16celebrate. Today is The Saint

18:23Joseph Center Fall Connect Day.

18:26We have a host of different

18:28activities and resources from

18:30the county, from the city, from

18:33across Los Angeles. Really

18:35dedicated to helping folks who

18:37are experiencing homelessness,

18:39housing insecurity, and folks

18:40who just need to make sure that

18:42they have information available

18:43to them. We basically invited

18:46tons of families and communities

18:49for resources that we have

18:50available here today. We have

18:52DPS, we have Department of

18:54Mental Health. We also have Cd11

18:57, T-Mobile, and we also have a

18:58few barbers who dedicated their

19:00time to be here today as well.

19:02So ahorita estan dando juguetes

19:05ropa y comida para las personas.

19:08Corte de pelo y para las comida.

19:11No tienen pues ahorita este es

19:13muy buena idea de lo Q

19:15obtuvieron para hacer este este

19:18dia saint Joseph Center is one

19:21of the largest homeless services

19:23and housing organizations in the

19:25entire county. It's totally open

19:27to the community and free, and

19:28we're expecting hundreds of

19:29people to come through today.

19:31We'd like to say thank you to

19:33Saint Joseph Center, all the

19:34great work they do in the

19:36community. We have a long

19:38standing partnership with them.

19:38So, you know, anytime that we

19:40can help support what their

19:42efforts are for the community,

19:43we want to do that, right. So we

19:45help them out with all their

19:47communications and everything

19:48else and networking. And again,

19:50we're just here to support we

19:51value their partnership and all

19:52the great things they do. For

19:58people don't realize that in LA

19:59County there are 1.1 million

20:02people who identify as having a

20:04physical disability. That's 10%

20:06of our county. The CTP, the

20:10self-evaluation, and transition

20:12plan is something that the Ada

20:14requires of all city and county

20:16governments across the nation.

20:17The city of Los Angeles did one

20:20back in 2000. We decided rather

20:22than just try and update it,

20:23that there's quite frankly, so

20:25much work to be done that we're

20:27going to take a self-evaluation

20:28from the beginning. We've got

20:29thousands of facilities to look

20:31at and programs the city

20:33department on disability really

20:34understands how frustrating it

20:36can be when somebody runs into

20:38noncompliance, whether that's a

20:40sidewalk, a park, a library, an

20:42arts event. I represent blind

20:46people from San Diego to

20:48Humboldt, and I'm here to thank

20:50you, first of all, for meeting.

20:52But you need to start changing

20:54things. The comments are very

20:57impassioned and a lot of

21:01frustration. We really need to

21:03make sure that it works for the

21:05people who are going to be

21:07serviced by it, and we really

21:08want to change the framework

21:11from kind of a afterthought to

21:14something that's more proactive

21:16when my grandmother, um, had

21:18lung cancer, they had to sever

21:20nerves in her spine and

21:22overnight she could never walk

21:24again. She acquired her

21:26disabilities overnight, and that

21:27was before Ada watching my

21:30grandmother have to navigate a

21:31world that was really hostile at

21:34the time. Um just makes me want

21:37to make sure that we break down

21:39those barriers for everyone so

21:40that they never have to feel

21:42like the world no longer wants

21:44them around. I had a spinal cord

21:46injury at the age of 21. Over 50

21:49years ago, and it introduced me

21:50to the community and the

21:53oppression that we live with and

21:55experience on a daily basis of

21:57lack of opportunities to

22:00interact or go into a building

22:02or participate in employment. I

22:06decided that I wanted to

22:09influence a way for all of us to

22:12be able to really live our best

22:13lives without feeling like we

22:17can't be a part of something,

22:18come to these meetings and make

22:21your voice heard, because that's

22:24a critical part. We're looking

22:26at accessibility from the big

22:27picture. We're putting a lot of

22:29resources, energy and expertise

22:30to it. And it's something that,

22:32quite frankly, is the DoD's. The

22:34Department of Disabilities top

22:35priority. We're getting answers

22:36that we know that the Department

22:39of Disabilities and the mayor

22:41and the council are going to act

22:42on, and that's really exciting.

22:44We've put a survey out there you

22:45can find on our website

22:47disability LA City Gov. Complete

22:50the survey through October 15th.

22:52That questionnaire allows people

22:53to really talk about what

22:55barriers they've run into. Take

22:56the survey because, you know,

22:58people are going to do something

23:00about it. From the observation

23:04deck at City Hall, you can see

23:07neighborhoods in every

23:08direction. Each one of them

23:10filled with cultural joy,

23:12vibrant history, and a bit of

23:13that la La Land magic. Thanks in

23:16part to the civic leaders who

23:18work at a place built for the

23:19people. Los Angeles City Hall.

23:22Thank you all for joining us.

1:54:39A COMMISSIONER ADDRESS THE WORK

1:54:46FOR ENVIRONMENTAL AND--MY

1:54:47OBSERVATION IS THAT NO ONE

1:54:49WANTS A CLEAN PORT MORE THAN A

1:54:51WOMEN AND MEN WHO'S FAMILIES

1:54:53ARE LIVING NEAR BY.

1:54:54BUT ALSO, THE IMPORTANCE OF

1:55:00TECHNOLOGIES, AND ENGINES AND

1:55:01NEW FUELS TO THE WAY WE MOVE

1:55:04GOODS, HOW DO WE MAKE SURE THAT

1:55:35WE CAN DO THAT WITH MANNED

1:55:40CLEANED ZERO EMISSION EQUIPMENT.

1:55:41IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE AUTO

1:55:44MATED.

1:56:02OUR FAMILIES ARE BREATHING IT,

1:56:05I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT CLEAN

1:56:08AIR IS.

2:13:36>> Council President: WE NEED

2:13:37TO FIND OUR BUDGET CHAIR.

2:14:11COUNCILMEMBER YAROSLAVSKY.

2:14:14ON ITEM 24.

2:14:15>> K. Yaroslavsky: THANK YOU,

2:14:17COUNCIL PRESIDENT.

2:14:18COLLEAGUES THIS MOTION BEFORE

2:14:22US TODAY, STARTED WITH A SIMPLE

2:14:24QUESTION.

2:14:25WHY SHOULD THE SAME HOME BE

2:14:27HARDER AND MORE EXPENSIVE TO

2:14:29BUILD JUST BECAUSE SOMEBODY IS

2:14:30GOING TO OWN IT INSTEAD OF RENT

2:14:32IT.

2:14:34WE SPENT YEARS MAKE ITING

2:14:36EASIER TO BUILD IN L.A. WE MADE

2:14:38PROGRESS BUT CLOSE ATTENTION TO

2:14:42WHETHER THOSE HOMES OWN A PATH

2:14:43TO PARTNERSHIP.

2:14:46TODAY THE MEDIAN HOME IN L.A.

2:14:48COSTS MORE THAN A MILLION

2:14:51DOLLARS.

2:14:53CONDOS AND TOWN HOMES SHOULD

2:14:55FILL THAT GAP.

2:14:57INSTEAD NEW INSTRUCTION OF

2:14:59CONDOS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

2:15:01FALL ROUGHLY 90 PERCENT FROM

2:15:03ITS PEAK IN 2005 AND 2006 AND I

2:15:06WANT TO TALK BRIEFLY WHY THAT

2:15:08MATTERS.

2:15:11WE LIVE IN A COMMUNITY WHERE

2:15:14PEOPLE WHO OWN WEALTH ALREADY

2:15:17HAVE ASSETS.

2:15:18FOR ANGELINOS THE CHOICE IS TO

2:15:20RENT FOR THE REST OF THEIR

2:15:23LIFES OR SOMEHOW AFFORD A MULTI

2:15:25MILLION DOLLARS HOUSE.

2:15:27THIS IS CONSEQUENCES FOR RENTAL.

2:15:29THINKS ABOUT A 36-YEAR-OLD WITH

2:15:32A GOOD JOB STILL LIVES IN A

2:15:37ONE-BEDROOM APARTMENT THAT THEY

2:15:39MOVED INTO TEN YEARS AGO.

2:15:42MAYBE THEY GOT MARRIED AND HAD

2:15:43A KID.

2:15:44THEY CAN'T AFFORD A TWO MILLION

2:15:46DOLLARS HOUSE.

2:15:47SO THEY STAY PUT AND THAT

2:15:49APARTMENT DOES NOT BECOME

2:15:50AVAILABLE TO ANOTHER RENT ERROR

2:15:52THEY LEAVE L.A. ENTIRELY AND

2:15:56BUY A HOME SOMEPLACE ELSE.

2:16:00I DON'T BLAME ANYBODY FOR

2:16:02STAYING IN A HOME BUT

2:16:04OFTEN--PA

2:16:06DOING.

2:16:08TODAY, RENTING OUT FACES ONE

2:16:10SET OF COSTS THAT THE CITY

2:16:12IMPOSES.

2:16:13BUT IF THEY WANT TO SELL THE

2:16:15SAME APARTMENTS TO CONDO, THEY

2:16:17FACE ADDITIONAL CITY FEES AND

2:16:19PROCESSES.

2:16:20WE CREATED AN INCENTIVE TO

2:16:23CREATE APARTMENTS INSTEAD OF

2:16:23HOMES.

2:16:25AND OTHER CONSTRAINTS AND

2:16:26CHALLENGES AND BARRIERS THAT

2:16:27DIS EN SENT I HAVIZE, AND OF

2:16:30COURSE WORKING ON.

2:16:31WE NEED MORE RENTAL HOUSING FOR

2:16:33SURE, BUT WE ALSO NEED

2:16:35APARTMENTS THAT PEOPLE CAN OWN.

2:16:37THIS MOTION DOES NOT ELIMINATE,

2:16:39IT ASKED OUR CEO TO--AND COME

2:16:43BACK WITH OPTIONS TO REDUCE OR

2:16:46RESTRUCTURE THEM SO THEY

2:16:48PARALLEL APARTMENT BUILDINGS.

2:16:50IF WE'RE SERIES ABOUT MIDDLE

2:16:54INCOME FAMILIES CAN BUILD

2:16:58WEALTH, WE NEED A PATH TO GET

2:16:59THERE.
