Recommendation for Council action: AUTHORIZE the Department of General Services (GSD) to negotiate and execute a lease agreement with the Metro for property located at 16800 Victory Boulevard under the terms and conditions substantially outlined in the October 9, 2025 Municipal Facilities Committee (MFC) report, attached to the Council File. Fiscal Impact Statement: The MFC reports that approval of the October 9, 2025 MFC report, attached to the Council File, will not have an immediate impact on the General Fund at this time given that budgeted General Funds are being used to support leasing through the Homelessness Emergency Account. There is a potential future impact to the General Fund relative to supporting the costs for the remainder of the lease term. Community Impact Statement: None submitted. Summary: On October 21, 2025, your Committee considered an October 9, 2025 MFC report relative to proposed lease agreement with the Metro for property located at 16800 Victory Boulevard. According to the MFC, as the City continues its efforts to address homelessness, there have been numerous projects and efforts to address encampments that obstruct the public right of way involving RVs. The lack of storage space for these oversize vehicles has been identified as a challenge in various reports to the City Council and the Mayor (Council File Nos. 22-1324, 21-1468, and 17-0956). To address this shortage of space for oversized vehicle storage, the City identified two lots designated as “Emergency LAPD Oversized Vehicle Impound Lots” to serve as a Citywide resource. One lot has been operational since 2024, located at 2621 South Nevin Avenue (Compton/Nevin) in Council District 9. The proposed lease for the Balboa RV Storage Lot Project (Project) will provide additional secure and legal RV storage for up to 125 RVs removed from encampments through Inside Safe and other City operations. The Project is located on a Metro-owned parcel and is currently approximately 94,800 square feet (SF) of primarily asphalt paved surface parking. The site will be operated by an Official Police Garage (OPG) that will operate in compliance with all applicable local, state and federal laws and regulations pertaining to the impound, removal, towing, storage and disposal of vehicle. The Bureau of Engineering will oversee site design and development for the project which includes minor improvements to the surface parking lot such as a new ten-foot-high rolling security gate, ten-foot-high chain link perimeter fencing, guard booth, and a portable  ITEM 13 restroom. GSD’s Construction Forces estimates completion of this work within three months once site access is provided. Representatives from the GSD and the Los Angeles Police Department provided an overview of the project and answered questions from the Committee members. After further consideration and having provided an opportunity for public comment, the Committee moved to recommend approval of the recommendation contained in the MFC report and detailed in the above recommendation. This matter is now submitted to Council for its consideration.

Presented by: Seconded by: ~ OCT 2 2 2025  AR i (:,. ,-ARKS, L:or~ARii::3, ANO COMMUNITY ENRICHMENT MOTION The Department of Animal Services manages shelters that care for animals and serve the community. Council offices occasionally receive inquiries regarding the condition and operations of these facilities. In order to fulfill their oversight responsibilities, Councilmembers and their staff must have appropriate access to all areas of these shelters, while adhering to safety protocols and minimizing disruption. Recently, questions have arisen regarding whether Councilmembers and their staff are required to schedule appointments or obtain special permission to visit these sites, even when accompanied by Department personnel. While ensuring safety and appropriate supervision are important, unclear or burdensome procedures may hinder effective oversight. Greater clarity on this issue is needed. I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council direct the Department of Animal Services to report on the current rules for allowing elected officials and their staff into Department facilities, including non-public areas. The report should specify any notice or supervision requirements and recommend how to facilitate timely and safe access for Councilmembers and staff, including with Department accompaniment, without requiring a formal appointment process. SECONDED BY:  ·1ULES. ELECTIONS, INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIOMS MOTION Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title II Regulations were amended by the Title II Web and Mobile Accessibility Final Rule (89 FR 31320, published April 24, 2024), and include Subpart H (Web and Mobile Accessibility) requirements, which will go into effect for State and Local Governments with 50,000 or more persons on April 24, 2026. The City of Los Angeles is committed to meeting these requirements. The City is the publisher of Chapter IA of the LAMC (New Zoning Code), which has an online interactive display at zoning.lacity.gov, and the City also coordinates closely with American Legal Publishing on the publication and maintenance of the LAMC as a whole. Technology is continuously evolving, including accessibility tools such as screen readers, and tools used to audit websites for accessibility. As such, even when a site is compliant to the best of the City's ability on the deadline, opportunities to improve accessibility may arise as technology evolves. Additionally, the City will need to be able to quickly make nonsubstantive changes to the Los Angeles Municipal Code to remedy any issues with ADA compliance that may arise. Compliance with ADA requirements entails numerous non-substantive amendments to the Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC). Examples of amendments to the Los Angeles Municipal Code needed for ADA compliance may include but are not limited to changes such as: 1) replacing symbols with words of an equivalent meaning to support the ability of a screen-readers to accurately read the content, 2) locating the key to a table before instead of after the table to improve the understandability of the content, and 3) updating the color contrast in graphics. I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council request the City Attorney to work with the City's code publisher(s) to implement revisions to the LAMC for ADA compliance purposes as needed to correct identified non-substantive, technical errors through a similar approach as was implemented through Council File 23-0047 (Gender References/ Los Angeles Municipal Code/ Amendment), which did not require a formal ordinance process.

PARKS, UBkARiES,AND COMMUNITY ENRICHMENT MOTION The City of Los Angeles' Senior Centers play a vital role in fostering community and connection, promoting health, and providing supportive services for older Angelenos. These centers serve as community pillars by providing daily meals, fitness and wellness classes, cultural and educational programming, and opportunities for social engagement that improve quality of life. For many residents,The Department of Recreation and Parks' Senior Centers are not only places for recreation, but lifelines for essential services and community support. Neighborhoods such as Boyle Heights, Lincoln Heights, and El Sereno are vibrant communities of multigenerational families and working-class residents who rely on accessible and culturally responsive public spaces. Senior Centers in these communities are essential for ensuring equity in aging. Programming provided at Senior Centers in Council District 14 bridge the gaps in access to health, nutrition, and social participation. Sustained investment in these centers strengthens community well-being, honors the contributions of elders who built Los Angeles, and upholds the City's commitment to inclusive neighborhoods. I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council request the Department of Recreation and Parks to conduct a Council District 14 Senior Center Needs Assessment. This report should provide a list of improvements needed at each Senior Center in the district in order to better serve the aging community and Senior Center staff, as well as the cost estimate for each item.
