Depot Street, a construction site that had been left inactive by the owner since November of 2022. The fire spread to three neighboring apartment buildings - 716 S. New Depot Street, 849 Bunker Hill, and 877 Bunker Hill. In total, 26 units were deemed unlivable due to the fire. According to the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD), a total of six patients were evaluated with two requiring hospital transport, including an elderly male in critical condition and an elderly female patient in fair condition with a non-life threatening burn injury. Four LAFD firefighters also sustained non-life threatening injuries while bravely responding to the fire. The fire originated at an unoccupied new construction site that had been permitted since 2019 but which, according to the Department of Building and Safety, has had no construction activity since November 2022. According to LAPD and LAFD, several calls for services were responded to over the past year. Despite numerous calls from the community and the Council Office to address this abandoned construction site, the building was left unsecured, open to the public and vulnerable to nuisance activity. When disasters render a multi-family residence uninhabitable, residents can face compounding fees and charges for municipal services such as water and sanitation services, ambulance fees for transport during the emergency, and more. The families who have been displaced by this fire are already facing the tragic loss of their homes and belongings. It is imperative that the City not allow them to face additional undue hardship through the accumulation of fees and charges. I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council INSTRUCT the Fire Department to waive all ambulance fees for fire victims from the fires that occurred at 716 S. New Depot Street, 849 Bunker Hill, and 877 Bunker Hill on September 13, 2024. I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council REQUEST the Department of Water and Power to adjust and waive all fees and charges for customers whose units were destroyed or damaged, from the fires that occurred at 716 S. New Depot Street, 849 Bunker Hill, and 877 Bunker Hill starting on September 13, 2024 through one full billing cycle. I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council INSTRUCT the Bureau of Sanitation including recycLA to adjust and waive all fees and charges for customers whose units were destroyed or damaged, from the fires that occurred at 716 S. New Depot Street, 849 Bunker Hill, and 877 Bunker Hill starting on September 13, 2024 through one full billing cycle. I FURTHER MOVE that the City Council AUTHORIZE the Bureau of Sanitation and Department of Water and Power to provide a Sewer Servic� Charge adjustment based on the number of days in the billing cycle that sewer service was provided, for victims of the fire located at 716 S. New Depot Street, 849 Bunker Hill, and 877 Bunker Hill. SEP � 8 2024 ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT I FURTHER MOVE that the LA Department of Building and Safety be instructed to adjust and waive all reasonable fees and charges for the property owners for repairs due to the fires that occurred at 716 S. New Depot Street, 849 Bunker Hill, and 877 Bunker Hill on September 13, 2024. -����c---- _ --,,� Councilmember, 1 st District ', SECONDED BY: GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS MOTION The City Council and Mayor have approved the construction of an interim housing project at Pico Boulevard and Midvale Avenue on a former Los Angeles Department of Transportation parking lot. While this is a critically needed facility, it has reduced the availability of public parking in the area. To mitigate the impact on the community, Council District 5 staff have identified a vacant property at 11040 W. Pico Boulevard that could be leased for replacement parking. -City staff should immediately initiate a process to lease this property as soon as possible, given that construction has already begun on the interim housing site. I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the General Services Department and the Department of Transportation, with the assistance of the City Attorney and in consultation with Council District 5, to negotiate and execute a lease agreement with Reliable Properties or other designee of the property owner for the property located at 11040 W. Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles, California, 90064 to be used for replacement parking. � PRESENTED BY: --+r--H+--+-e---=-----+-- 11,: C I[ SEP 18 2024

For Telecommunication Relay Services for the hearing impaired, please see the information below. Telecommunication Relay Services Telephone communication is one of the most important forms of communication in society today. Due to advancements in technology, telephone devices have evolved with new services and capabilities. Individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing, and individuals with a speech disability are following these trends and are rapidly migrating to more advanced telecommunications methods, both for peer­to­peer and third­party telecommunications relay service (TRS) communications. Telecommunications Relay Service is a telephone service that allows persons with hearing or speech disabilities to place and receive telephone calls. TRS is available in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. territories for local and/or long distance calls. TRS providers ­ generally telephone companies ­ are compensated for the costs of providing TRS from either a state or a federal fund. There is no cost to the TRS user. What forms of TRS are available? There are several forms of TRS, depending on the particular needs of the user and the equipment available: TRS includes: Text to Voice TIY­Based TRS; Speech­to­Speech Relay Service; Shared Non­English Language Relay Service; Captioned Telephone Relay Service; Internet Protocol Relay Service; and Video Relay Service. Please visit this site for detail descriptions, https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/telecommunications­relay­service­trs. Don't hang up! Some people hang up on TRS calls because they think the CA is a telemarketer. If you hear, "Hello. This is the relay service .. . " when you pick up the phone, please don't hang up! You are about to talk, through a TRS provider, to a person who is deaf, hard­of­hearing, or has a speech disability. For more information about FCC programs to promote access to telecommunications services for people with disabilities, visit the FCC's Disability Rights Office website.

When debate on an item is completed, the Chair will instruct the Clerk to "call the roll". Every member present must vote for or against each item; abstentions are not permitted. The Clerk will announce the votes on each item. Any member of Council may move to "reconsider" any vote on any item on the agenda, except to adjourn, suspend the Rules, or where an intervening event has deprived the Council of jurisdiction, providing that said member originally voted on the prevailing side of the item. The motion to "reconsider" shall only be in order once during the meeting, and once during the next regular meeting. The member requesting reconsideration shall identify for all members present the agenda number, Council file number and subject matter previously voted upon. A motion to reconsider is not debatable and shall require an affirmative vote of eight (8) members of the Council. When the Council has failed by sufficient votes to approve or reject an item, and has not lost jurisdiction over the matter, or has not caused it to be continued beyond the next regular meeting, the item is continued to the next regular meeting for the purpose of allowing the Council to again vote on the matter. The City Council rules provide that all items adopted by the Council will not be presented to the Mayor, or other designated officer by the City Clerk until the adjournment of the regular Council meeting following the date of the Council action. A motion to send an item "forthwith" if adopted by ten (10) votes, suspends these rules and requires the City Clerk to forward the matter to the Mayor, or other officer, without delay. RULE 16 MOTIONS ­ Council Rule No. 16, in part, allows a member to send an item directly to the Council without it having to go to a Council Committee first, by giving the City Clerk a motion (seconded by an additional member) during a Council session to be placed on the next regular available Council agenda.
