City Council Meeting

Meeting ID: 16200

Meeting Summary

What Happened

This was the council's first regular meeting following the January 7, 2025 windstorm and wildfire disaster. Item 22 was continued one week to January 21. The council adopted Item 56, a resolution ratifying Mayor Bass's January 7, 2025 Declaration of Local Emergency for the windstorm and extreme fire weather event, unanimously 15-0, and sent it forward "forthwith."

The council then adopted a large slate of Rule 23 emergency special motions responding to the fires, all passing unanimously 15-0, primarily authored by Council Member Park (whose district includes Pacific Palisades) with co-authors including Lee, Rodriguez, Nazarian, Hutt, Padilla, McOsker, Price, Hernandez, and Soto-Martinez. Council Member Park clarified that while her district was most severely impacted, several of the motions' emergency response sites were not limited to CD11. One motion (Special 11, Hernandez-Soto-Martinez) was amended, at Council Member Raman's request, to exempt Hillside High Fire Severity Zone areas from certain traffic-management restrictions, preserving the council's ability to maintain time-specific parking rules that keep evacuation routes and emergency-vehicle ingress/egress clear during high-fire-risk periods; the amendment was accepted as friendly.

Contested Votes

Item 39 (continued Housing and Homelessness Committee report on the Homelessness Emergency Declaration 2024-25 Second Quarterly Report) passed 14-1, with Council Member Rodriguez casting the lone no vote. No floor debate accompanied the vote.

Public Comment

Public comment on the Rule 23 emergency motions included sharp criticism of the LAFD's budget and staffing history, with one speaker citing that 12 council members had previously voted to cut LAFD funding and arguing the fire chief position should be made elected rather than mayoral-appointed; the speaker also raised the department's prior terminations of firefighters over a COVID-19 vaccine mandate as a contributing factor to recruitment shortfalls. A staff attorney with the Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles, who practices eviction defense, testified that the city saw 5,500 eviction filings from October through December 2024 and that the Housing Department had received over 2,700 eviction notices per week in January, warning — citing post-fire rent increases of up to 44% in Maui and lingering elevated rents five years after Hurricane Katrina — that the city should expect a surge in evictions and rent increases following the January wildfires without swift protective action.

Contested Votes

Tallies and member votes are the official record (LA City Clerk CVVS). Descriptions are drawn from the meeting transcript.

Official recommendation
INSTRUCT the Board of Public Works’ Bureaus to report to Council on the equity framework currently used for selection and implementation of services and their plan to incorporate the Department of City Planning (DCP) Community Health and Equity (CHE) Index into project prioritization and resource allocation. DIRECT each of the Bureaus of the Department of Public Works, the DCP, and any other relevant agencies, to report on the programs they manage that achieve transportation outcomes, how those programs currently incorporate equity into their work plans, and how the CHE Index can be adopted into those programs, if they are not already, so that the City of Los Angeles is using one definition of areal equity measurement for achieving transportation goals. DIRECT the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) to report to Council with an overview of additional criteria if uses to prioritize projects to achieve specific programmatic goals and understand travel patterns for communities of concern, including but not limited to how the (LADOT) incorporates transit ridership, boardings and alightings by line; crash data; prevailing speeds; density of jobs and proximity to job centers on specific corridors; and regional transportation gaps into its program and project planning. The report should include any data sets that would further allow the LADOT to consider and address the travel patterns of communities of concern in Los Angeles, as well as help close transportation gaps to regionally-important destinations and along regionally-important corridors. The report should propose how the LADOT could combine these data into an overlay that could be paired with the CHE Index and Priority Transportation Equity Areas to add holistic regional travel patterns as a consistent metric across work programs, and any resources needed to create that overlay and maintain it moving forward. Fiscal Impact Statement: The LADOT reports that there is no impact to the General Fund.

Naming a City department other than the Los Angeles Police Department as the department primarily responsible for enforcing the ordinance. Implementing the issuance of state resources in place of fines for first time offenders, or other non punitive measures of enforcement. Equipping the enforcing department to issue fines and/or warnings based on community reports without a BSS inspector personally witnessing the violation.

This educational program should include outreach to gardeners and landscapers, using business registration data from the Office of Finance, and outreach to homeowners in areas where citations and complaints for gas-powered leaf blowers are most common. Additionally, the program should include resources on how a gardener can report wage theft in the event that the imposed fines are carried down from the homeowner onto the operator. The program should be prepared in English and Spanish. REQUEST the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power to report to Council with the estimated energy impacts and/or cost savings associated with using electric versus gas powered lawn equipment.
