City Council Meeting

October 22, 2025
Meeting ID: 17427

Meeting Summary

What Happened

Eleven council members were present for the initial roll call, rising to twelve later in the meeting. Council opened by recognizing participants in LA Foster Youth Shadow Day, a National Foster Youth Institute program pairing council offices with young people who have experienced foster care. Council Member Hugo Soto-Martinez then presented testimony from two Council District 13 constituents affected by federal immigration enforcement: Maria Gaitan, whose husband was detained by ICE in August and who described struggling to pay rent and afford groceries for her three sons, and Griselda Samoaya, whose 23-year-old daughter was detained by ICE at a Home Depot near Hollywood and Western.

Council adopted a large bloc of items with limited discussion, including three Historic-Cultural Monument designations (Items 5-7); nuisance-abatement investigations for properties on South Robertson Boulevard and Virginia Road in Council District 10 (Items 8-9); an amendment to the Jefferson Park Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (Item 10, CF 09-2724-S1); the appointment of Jeffrey Skobin to the Board of Police Commissioners (Item 12, CF 25-1200-S52); four additional Rent Escrow Account Program property removals (Items 14-17); funding for shared housing and older-adult services in Council District 3 (Items 18-19, Blumenfield-Nazarian); a Housing and Homelessness Committee report on the cost of city-funded homeless housing interventions and potential funding reductions facing the city and its partners (Item 21, CF 25-1137); a motion evaluating expansion of the Pacific Avenue Corridor Jobs and Economic Development Incentive Zone in San Pedro (Item 25, CF 23-0957-S1); a HUD Section 108 loan application for the Reseda Theatre Rehabilitation Project (Item 24, CF 14-1174-S113, Blumenfield-Raman); and several Animal Services Department contract and bequest items (Items 26-32). Item 13, a proposed Metro lease for a Council District 6 property at 6340 North Balboa Boulevard and 16800 Victory Boulevard, was continued to October 28.

Item 20 (CF 20-1084-S4), a Second Amendment to the city's contract with the Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles for eviction-defense and homelessness-prevention services under the StayHoused LA program, was reconsidered twice after Council Member Nithya Raman identified an error in her own amending motion; the corrected version, extending the program while a new request-for-proposals process was completed, passed 12-0.

Contested Votes

Item 22 (CF 25-0006-S85) — Munger, Tolles & Olson wildfire-litigation legal services agreement. This item, a proposed legal services agreement with Munger, Tolles & Olson LLP for work related to the January 2025 wildfire litigation and related federal investigations, went through two votes after a floor dispute over funding. A first version passed 11-1, with Council Member Adrin Nazarian opposed. Before final action, Council Member Nithya Raman noted that the item as reported to Council had identified the funding source as coming from the Department of Water and Power, but a late amendment from the City Attorney's office — introduced only in the final hour, including during a closed session — would instead have the City Administrative Officer identify $750,000 from the General Fund to cover the cost. Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson said on the record that he did not understand why this change in funding source was not disclosed earlier and called the situation "understandable consternation." After the amendment (22A, Harris-Dawson-Lee) was added, the amended item was put to a second vote and received only 7 Ayes to 5 Noes — with Council Member Eunisses Hernandez, Council Member Tim McOsker, Council Member Adrin Nazarian, Council Member Nithya Raman, and Council Member Hugo Soto-Martinez opposed — short of the votes needed to pass; the Council Clerk stated on the record that "this motion fails," and the item was held over to October 24 under Council rules for further consideration. [Note: the city's official CVVS vote database lists this second vote's status as "Adopted," which conflicts with the clerk's real-time statement in the meeting audio that the motion failed and was held over; the item was in fact taken up again at subsequent meetings on October 24 and October 29 before final passage on October 28, consistent with the motion having failed at this meeting rather than passed.]

Public Comment

Public comment on Item 20 drew a large turnout of StayHoused LA program participants and eviction-defense advocates, including representatives of Eastside LEADS, who urged Council to extend $3.7 million in rental-assistance funding and $4.6 million in legal-services funding for five additional months while a paused request-for-proposals process was completed, citing elderly and undocumented tenants at risk of eviction across multiple council districts.

ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE REPORT relative to the state of water and sewer infrastructure in the area bounded by Roscoe Boulevard, Interstate 405 (I-405) freeway, Plummer Street, and Van Nuys Boulevard.

Official recommendation
INSTRUCT the Bureau of Sanitation (BOS) and Bureau of Engineering, in coordination with the Department of Water and Power, to report to the Council within 180 days on the state of water and sewer infrastructure in the area bounded by Roscoe Boulevard, the I-405 freeway, Plummer Street, and Van Nuys Boulevard, including: Conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the current water and sewer system capacity, condition, and performance within the area bounded by Roscoe Boulevard, the 1-405 freeway, Plummer Street, and Van Nuys Boulevard, with particular attention to areas with past drainage and/or flooding issues and any existing plans for facility upgrades and expansions. Analyze the ability of the existing infrastructure to support current and anticipated growth in the area, especially given the rise in multifamily and commercial developments, and provide recommendations for additional study or development where necessary. Develop and propose creative solutions to address both water and sewer infrastructure needs, including but not limited to new catch basins, incorporating stormwater management improvements whenever possible to mitigate runoff and increase community resilience. Include an assessment of recent 311 data specific to water and sewer service requests in this area to identify recurring issues and trends that may inform infrastructure planning. Coordinate with Council District Six to actively gather additional community input on water and sewer-related concerns, ensuring a comprehensive record of local issues that may impact infrastructure planning and prioritization. Prioritize the advancement of the pending stormwater capture projects at the Sepulveda Recreation Center and North Hills Park, and integrate these projects as key components of the broader infrastructure improvement strategy for this area. Investigate the purpose and function of the trenched concrete channel along Parthenia Avenue, between Burnet and the Pacoima Wash, examining how it may be incorporated into future infrastructure projects to enhance stormwater management or community resilience. Provide a detailed account of the BOS’ internal project selection and prioritization process for sewer-related capital planning, including the criteria used to evaluate and advance projects, ensuring transparency and alignment with community needs and infrastructure objectives for this region. Fiscal Impact Statement: Neither the City Administrative Officer nor the Chief Legislative Analyst has completed a financial analysis of this report.
