Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO and CLA report that there is no
immediate fiscal impact to the General Fund in 2025-26 as a result of
the recommendations in the report. The consolidation of the DOA,
EWDD, and YDD into the CIFD, to be renamed CID, would result in
the elimination of 21 positions and the addition of five new positions.
This will result in an annual savings of $3.52 million, consisting of
$0.78 million in General Fund and $2.74 million in Special Funds.
Additionally, lease and operating expense reductions will generate
$1,832,905 ($914,281 General Fund and $918,624 Special Fund) in
savings if the CIFD, EWDD, LADOA, and YDD are consolidated and
co-located at a City-owned site such as the Mangrove property. These
savings may be reduced by operational and maintenance costs at a
new location as well as one-time costs such as those associated with
relocating employees between worksites, modifying informational
technology systems, staff time to support the transition, and employee
payouts. The anticipated savings and the total cost to implement the
consolidation depend on the effective date of the consolidation. The
2025-26 Unappropriated Balance provides $630,000 for the
Community Investment for Families Department to enhance the
efficiency of community services programs Citywide. These funds
were intended for costs associated with the proposed consolidation.
Other potential benefits such as reduced contract execution timelines
for service providers, expedited processing and payment of invoices
cannot be quantified at this time.
Financial Policies Statement: The CAO and CLA report that the
recommendations in the report comply with the City's Financial
Policies as they support the City's goal to achieve and maintain a
structurally balanced budget in which future costs are projected to be
fully paid by future revenues.

to implement the intent of those transactions.
(Budget and Finance Committee report to be submitted in
Council. If a public hearing is not held in Committee, an
opportunity for public comment will be provided.)
(Please visit www.lacouncilfile.com for background
documents.)
Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations
stated in the November 13, 2025 CAO report, attached to the Council
File, include transfers, appropriations, and authority for expenditures
totaling $7.4 million. This consists of $2.3 million from various special
funds, $4.2 million in MICLA funds, and $0.86 million in CTIEP funds.
All transfers and appropriations are based on existing funds,
reimbursements, or revenues. There is an unanticipated General
Fund impact in an amount not yet determined for operations and
maintenance costs of two facilities currently not in operation,
Barnsdall Art Park - Residence A and Engine Company 23 Youth Arts
Center. These costs will be addressed through the City budget
process at the time the facilities are scheduled for completion.
Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the
recommendations stated in the November 13, 2025 CAO report,
attached to the Council File, comply with the City’s Financial Policies
in that appropriations for funds are limited to available cash balances
needed to fund ongoing maintenance, programming, project
shortfalls, and critical operational needs in the current budget year.
Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA
debt is a General Fund obligation. The proposed MICLA fund
appropriation for the capital project described in the November 13,
2025 CAO report, attached to the Council (Item E - ITA Server Room
Upgrade Phase II) would cause the City to borrow $1.2 million at an
approximate 5.5 percent interest rate over a period of 20 years. The
total estimated debt service for the MICLA-funded projects is $2.0
million, including interest of approximately $0.8 million. The estimated
average annual debt service is $96,000 over a period of 20 years.
Actual interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on market
conditions at the time of issuance. The CAO cannot fully predict what
interest rates will be in the future. In accordance with the City's Debt
Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide
Wednesday - December 10, 2025 - PAGE 54
the evaluation of the affordability for future debt. The debt ceiling for
non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is
six percent. The 2025-26 Adopted Budget non-voter-approved debt
service ratio is 2.40 percent. The issuance of MICLA debt for these
projects will not cause the City to exceed the six percent non-voter-
approved debt limit.

and interest on the GO Bonds from proceeds of ad valorem taxes levied upon all taxable properties within
the City.
After an opportunity for public comment was held, the Budget and Finance Committee moved to
recommend approval of the recommendations contained in said CAO report, including adoption of the draft
Ordinance and Authorizing Resolution. This matter is now forwarded to the Council for its consideration.

BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT relative to the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Third
Construction Projects Report.
Recommendation for Council action, SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL OF THE MAYOR:
CONCUR with the action taken by the Government Operations (GO) Committee, as detailed in the GO
Committee report dated December 2, 2025, attached to the Council file.
Fiscal Impact Statement: The City Administrative Officer (CAO) reports that the recommendations stated
in the November 13, 2025 CAO report, attached to the Council file, include transfers, appropriations, and
authority for expenditures totaling $7.4 million. This consists of $2.3 million from various special funds,
$4.2 million in Municipal Improvement Corporation of Los Angeles (MICLA) funds, and $0.86 million in
Capital and Technology Improvement Expenditure Program (CTIEP) funds. All transfers and
appropriations are based on existing funds, reimbursements, or revenues. There is an unanticipated
General Fund impact in an amount not yet determined for operations and maintenance costs of two
facilities currently not in operation, Barnsdall Art Park - Residence A and Engine Company 23 Youth Arts
Center. These costs will be addressed through the City budget process at the time the facilities are
scheduled for completion.
Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations stated in said report comply with
the City’s Financial Policies in that appropriations for funds are limited to available cash balances needed
to fund ongoing maintenance, programming, project shortfalls, and critical operational needs in the current
budget year.
Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA debt is a General Fund obligation.
The proposed MICLA fund appropriation for the capital project described in the November 13, 2025 CAO
report, attached to the Council file, (Item E - ITA Server Room Upgrade Phase II) would cause the City to
borrow $1.2 million at an approximate 5.5 percent interest rate over a period of 20 years. The total
estimated debt service for the MICLA-funded projects is $2.0 million, including interest of approximately
$0.8 million. The estimated average annual debt service is $96,000 over a period of 20 years. Actual
interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on market conditions at the time of issuance. The CAO
cannot fully predict what interest rates will be in the future. In accordance with the City's Debt Management
Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide the evaluation of the affordability for future debt.
The debt ceiling for non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is six percent. The
2025-26 Adopted Budget non-voter-approved debt service ratio is 2.40 percent. The issuance of MICLA
debt for these projects will not cause the City to exceed the six percent non-voter-approved debt limit.
Community Impact Statement: None submitted
SUMMARY
At the meeting held on December 2, 2025, the GO Committee considered the CAO report, dated November
13, 2025, relative to the FY) 2025-26 Third Construction Projects Report. After an opportunity for public
comment was held, the GO Committee moved to approve the recommendations contained in said CAO

In 2024, Council District 11 established a Restroom Ambassador Program at two public
restrooms on Ocean Front Walk in Venice. Historically, these restrooms were prone to lodging,
encampments, vandalism and other public safety issues, which deterred families, local residents
and visitors from using one of Los Angeles' most magnificent parkspaces. In addition to
managing restroom access, restroom ambassadors also connect homeless individuals to services
and housing to prevent encampments from permanently returning to an area where they had once
been commonplace. The program has resulted in a marked decrease in incidents and is in need of
further funding to continue existing services while expanding its scope to additional restrooms
along Ocean Front Walk.
I THEREFORE MOVE that $600,000 in General City Purposes Fund No. 100-56,
Account No. 000625 (Additional Homeless Services - CD 11) and $300,000 in the Council

MOTION
For nearly three decades, the Vaughn Next Century Leaming Center has stood as a national model of educational innovation
and community transformation in the Northeast San Fernando Valley. Much of this success can be traced to the leadership and
vision of Dr. Yvonne Chan, whose work helped reshape public education locally and statewide.
Dr. Yvonne Chan, a Milken Educator ( I 991 ), national citizen activist honoree, and longtime public servant, first arrived at
Vaughn Street Elementary School as principal during a period marked by low academic achievement, overcrowding, and limited
resources. Under her leadership, Vaughn became the first conversion charter school in California, demonstrating what is
possible when families, educators, and communities are empowered to lead. Fluent in English, Chinese, and Spanish, Dr. Chan
mobilized parents to rebuild the campus; launched nutrition, health, and safety programs; established a family center and
community hub offering vaccinations, child care, legal aid, and job training; and led efforts to improve neighborhood conditions
in response to drug activity and violence.
Dr. Chan's work transformed not only a single school but an entire community's understanding of what public education could
be. Her leadership brought together families, educators, and local partners to create a model that continues to inspire schools
across Los Angeles. By elevating student achievement, expanding access to family services, and fostering a sense of collective
purpose, Dr. Chan helped ensure that countless children in the Northeast San Fernando Valley had pathways to opportunity that
might not have existed otherwise. Her legacy remains embedded in the lives of the students she served and in the city's ongoing
commitment to educational innovation.
We are honored to celebrate Dr. Yvonne Chan's remarkable contributions by naming this location in recognition of the work she
began here and the many lives she has touched throughout the Northeast San Fernando Valley.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the intersection at Van Nuys Boulevard and Herrick Avenue be named "Dr. Yvonne Chan Square"
and that the Department of Transportation be directed to install permanent ceremonial sign age at this location.

For nearly 30 years, the Vaughn Next Century Leaming Center has served as a national example of community-led
educational transformation in the Northeast San Fernando Valley. At the heart of this work was Anita Zepeda, whose
career and leadership helped guide Vaughn's expansion into a multi-site, cradle-to-career institution serving thousands of
students.
Anita Zepeda began her career 35 years ago as a classroom teacher and went on to serve in numerous instructional and
administrative roles, including reading specialist, special education advisor, bilingual program coordinator, and later,
Executive Director of Vaughn Next Century Learning Center. Her work helped shape the school's instructional programs,
strengthen student services, and support the development of a Pre-K through high school system recognized statewide. A
dedicated bilingual educator and advocate for underserved youth, Mrs. Zepeda is remembered for her unwavering
commitment to ensuring that every student felt dignity, belonging, and opportunity. She also holds a special place in the
community as a beloved teacher in Council District 7, including as Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez's third-grade
teacher.
Mrs. Zepeda's dedication to students and families helped shape the culture, spirit, and success of Vaughn Next Century
Learning Center for more than three decades. Her work as an educator and administrator strengthened instructional
programs, expanded services for diverse learners, and contributed to the school's evolution into a nationally recognized
institution. Through her be! ief in the potential of every child and her unwavering commitment to equity, she left an
immeasurable imprint on generations of students and played a key role in the long-term stability and growth of the school.
Her influence continues to guide the community she served so faithfully.
We are honored to celebrate Anita Zepeda's remarkable contributions by naming this location in recognition of the work
she began here and the generations of students and families she has supported in our community.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the intersection at Herrick Avenue and Paxton Street be named "Anita Zepeda Square" and

The Palisades Fire caused immense destruction and resulted in an unprecedented amount of fire-related
debris and other dangerous conditions that required immediate removal in order to advance recovery and
rebuilding efforts. In spite of these challenges, a coordinated effort between the Army Corps, State, City
Departments and Palisades residents resulted in the fastest debris removal in modem history.
As of mid-October 2025, 99.8% of all parcels (4,487 parcels in total) have been cleared of debris, leaving
a small handful of properties ( 11 as of mid-October 2025) that have not cleared their debris. These
remaining parcels, most notably the Palisades Mobile Home Park and 1601 San Onofre Drive, create risks
to health, safety and the environment, in addition to preventing recovery, the return ofresidents as well as
rebuilding for the wider Palisades community. The beginning of the rainy season adds further risk and the
possibility of toxic fire debris entering our stonn drains and water ways.
Following multiple notices and a public hearing process, these remaining parcels were declared a public
nuisance earlier this year. The urgency of remediating any environmental, health or safety risks
necessitates that the City immediately identify funding so that its departments can abate these properties.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council instruct the City Administrative Officer, in coordination with
the Department of Building and Safety, to report back within 30 days on the estimated cost to complete
debris removal on properties that were abated pursuant to LAMC 91.8907 as well as possible funding
sources, including but not limited to the Repair and Demolition Fund, Citywide Nuisance Abatement
Fund and the Enterprise Trust Fund, in order to front fund this work.
I FURTHER MOVE that the Council instruct LADBS and request the City Attorney's Office to evaluate
all potential legal strategies, including criminal prosecution, to address all properties within the perimeter
of the Palisades Fire that were abated pursuant to LAMC 91.8907 and have not completed the abatement
of the documented hazardous conditions.

The City of Los Angeles is home to a significant number of sober living facilities, also
known as group homes or recovery residences. These facilities provide critical housing and
support for individuals in recovery and play an important role in advancing public health and
equity.
At the same time, certain neighborhoods in Los Angeles have raised concerns about the
overconcentration of such facilities in limited geographic areas. While research shows that
well-run recovery residences typically do not harm neighborhood character when dispersed,
studies and real-world experience indicate that excessive clustering can overwhelm community
infrastructure and create tangible quality-of-life impacts.
For example, a 2016 Minneapolis study concluded that "group homes a block or more
apart produce no negative impacts," but cautioned that clustering them too closely together can
create cumulative effects. In Newport Beach, where over 100 facilities were concentrated in a
small coastal area, residents and city staff documented issues such as parking shortages, traffic
congestion, noise, and a sense of institutionalization in formerly single-family neighborhoods.
Larger sober living homes with 7 or more residents may also increase burdens on public services
and neighborhood compatibility when clustered.
Courts and state housing agencies have consistently affirmed that local governments
cannot exclude or discriminate against sober living facilities. Federal Fair Housing law requires
reasonable accommodation, and California recognizes recovery residences as protected housing.
However, precedent now exists for narrowly tailored regulations designed to address
overconcentration without eliminating access. Notably, the City of Costa Mesa adopted a
650-foot spacing requirement for sober living homes, which was challenged in court. The Ninth
Circuit upheld the ordinance, finding it a reasonable and lawful measure to balance
neighborhood stability with fair housing obligations.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the City Council instruct the Department of City Planning,
with the assistance of the City Attorney, to report back on legal and policy options to reduce the
overconcentration of sober living facilities in residential neighborhoods, including:
• Establishing minimum spacing requirements between facilities, modeled on the Costa
Mesa ordinance upheld by the courts.
• Exploring caps or dispersal requirements within community plan areas to ensure
equitable distribution citywide.
• Considering thresholds based on facility size (e.g. homes with more than 6 residents) to
target regulations at the uses most likely to create infrastructure burdens.
• Reviewing case studies and research to evaluate how the City can preserve the benefits of
recovery housing while avoiding the drawbacks of excessive clustering.

AD HOC COMMITTEE ON THE 2028
MOTION OLYMPIC AND PARAOLYMPIC GAMES
The 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games (2028 Games) will bring hundreds oflive sports events
to venues throughout the City. Alongside the sporting events themselves, it is anticipated that there will
be a wide range of cultural, entertainment, and other participation opportunities across the City (Non-
Venue Activations). These activations will support increased tourism and commerce during the 2028
Games, and will include the City's Activation Zones program, fan zones by other public and private
entities, and the Cultural Olympiad. In addition, other authorities such as Metro and Los Angeles World
Airports (LA WA) will be involved with programs to support the visitors, tourists, and residents
participating in all of these activities.
The proper planning and programming of Non-Venue Activations will require the procurement of
a large number of goods and services. Likewise, Los Angeles will face increased infrastructure demands
as the region prepares for the 2028 Games. Governmental entities across the region will require significant
support from private contractors which could provide a generational opportunity for local. small. and
underrepresented businesses who should have a fair opportunity to bid on a range of contract opportunities
to develop their operations and provide economic support for their employees.
It is imperative that the City ensure that local, small, and underrepresented businesses have fair
access to bid for services at Non-Venue Activations and infrastructure improvements implemented by
governmental agencies preparing for the Games. To ensure that all contracting opportunities are available
to local businesses, the City should take steps now to establish processes to allow for such businesses to
bid for and potentially earn contracts at these sites.
I THEREFORE MOVE that the Council instruct the Bureau of Contract Administration, the Office
of the Chief Legislative Analyst, and the Chief Administrative Officer, with the assistance of the
Economic and Workforce Development Department, Recreation and Parks, LAWA, and other relevant
City Departments, as well as other public entities such as Metro and the County of Los Angeles, to report
within 90 days with an assessment of procurement opportunities for local, small, and underrepresented
businesses at Non-Venue Activations in the City, procedures currently in place to support these
businesses, and recommendations to coordinate, monitor, and enhance efforts to expand contracting
opportunities for these businesses.

MOTION
An application was recently submitted for a high-density multi-family project on the property currently
owned by the Woodland Hills Country Club in Council District 3. The community is in a single family
zoned and very high fire zone neighborhood. The proposed project takes advantage of new State laws
that may have made it impossible to get detailed environmental review and consider community input.
These changes, which could affect many areas in the City, have happened with little scrutiny or local
awareness.
The new State laws appear to provide streamlined, ministerial approvals for the project, meaning the
City would have no discretion to review the project, no authority to require CEQA and that the project
would not be appealable by the community or the City. The state bill being used is AB 2011, which was
amended by AB 2243 and AB 893.
AB 2011 allows high density multi-family projects ministerially along commercial corridors. The
subsequent bills which amended the underlying bill were signed by the Governor in October and
redefined specific terms. Among many elements that affect the City's authority to review projects, these
changes include:
• Defining a commercial corridor in an overly broad way that includes Canoga Avenue along which
the Woodland Hills Golf Course sits. Commercial Corridor is defined by width of street, not the
zone, uses, or existing conditions.
• Removing zoning limits in Specific Plans that are over 25 years old, effectively circumventing the
goals and requirements of the Mulholland Scenic Parkway Specific Plan and the Girard Tract
Specific Plan.
• Creating a loophole in single family zoning by allowing that zoning to be ignored as long as
parking is a principally permitted use whether a Conditional Use Permit is required or not, which
applies in this case .
• Very High Fire Severity Zone limitations only apply if the site is vacant, which could raise
concerns about the Palisades where many lots are currently vacant after being lost to fire in
January 2025 .
I THEREFORE MOVE that the Department of City Planning, with the assistance of the City Attorney, be
INSTRUCTED to report within 30 days with a detailed analysis of the application of AB 2011, AB 2243 and
AB 893 both to the proposed Woodland Hills Country Club project and to other parts of the city along
"commercial corridors" as defined in State law.
Councilmember, 3rd
MOTION
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT & JOBS
Between 1945 to 2011 the state of California administered local Community Redevelopment Agencies ("CRA"),
using tax increment financing. The CRAs were instructed to focus on mitigating "blight" and dominated local
economic development, even establishing superseding_ land use and zoning. The CRAs generated both successes
and controversies, and were ultimately dissolved in 2011. After dissolution the functions of the Los Angeles CRA
were partially absorbed across several departments and agencies- the Economic Workforce Development
Department (EWDD), the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator, the Department of City Planning and the Los
Angeles Development Fund.
With the coming reorganization of several departments including EWDD, . an opportunity exists to examine the
City's approach to economic development and explore structural options to effectively carry out economic
development strategies and functions-within the City. Economic development at a local government level should
focus on: creation and retention of quality jobs; attracting and providing support for growth industriesa especially
for local and small business; revitalization and development of economic infrastructure; innovation;
entrepreneurship; and generating income for the city. The work of such an agency should be guided by strategic
planning, data collection and strong partnerships with local stakeholders and universities.
I THEREFORE MOVE to direct the Chief Legislative Analyst, in coordination with all other relevant
departments, and in consultation with local stakeholders and academics with expertise, to report on economic
development best practices at a local government level and recommendations on the most effective structure for
the City to carry out economic development functions and strategies. The report should include:
A survey of the economic development functions the City currently performs across departments;
A review of cities that successfully drive economic growth and the practices employed to obtain these
results.
Comparisons of the organization of successful municipal economic development units, induding optimal
staff qualifications and training, and priority projects.
Case studies relevant to the City where economic development agencies substantially contributed to
attracting and retaining growth industries, trained workforces in emerging fields, or revitalized business
districts.
Recommendations about best practices for funding and planning within economic development, such as
tax increment financing districts and development of strategic and /or capital plans.
Best practices, including structures, for supporting, retaining and further strengthening industries where
cities hold a competitive advantage, such as Film/Entertainment and Tourism for Los Angeles.
Consideration of benefits to Cities that maintain standalone film and/or tourism departments and those
that incorporate those activities into economic development functions.

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 peer-to-peer and third-party 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 TIY-Based TRS; Speech-to-Speech Relay Service; Shared Non-
English 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/telecommunications-
relay-service-trs.
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, hard-of-hearing, 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.

BASIC CITY COUNCIL MEETING RULES
AGENDAS - The City Council meets Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday at 10:00 A.M. The agendas for City Council
meetings contain a brief general description of those items to be considered at the meetings. Council Agendas are
available in the Office of the City Clerk, Council and Public Services Division, Room 395, City Hall, 200 North Spring
Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012, and on the City's website at lacity.gov or lacouncilcalendar.com.
Ten (10) members of the Council constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The Council may consider an
item not listed on the agenda only if it is determined by a two-thirds (10) vote that the need for action arose after the
posting of an Agenda. Some items on the agenda may be approved without any discussion, however, any item may
be called "special" by a Councilmember. If an item is called "special" it will be "held" until the remainder of the items on
the Council agenda have been acted on by the Council. An item may also be called "special" if a member of the public
has requested to speak on the item and a public hearing was not previously held.
The City Clerk will announce the items to be considered by the Council, however items will be grouped. For example,
all items for which required public hearings have not previously been held are listed in one section on the printed
agenda. The Council President will ask if any Councilmember or member or the public wishes to speak on one or
more of these items. If anyone wishes to speak on an item, it will be called "special". The remaining items in this
section will be voted on by Council with one roll call vote.
PUBLIC INPUT AT CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS - An opportunity for the public to address the Council on agenda
items for which public hearings have not been held will be provided at the time the item is considered or during the
Multiple Agenda Item Comment period. Members of the public who wish to speak on items shall be allowed to speak
for up to one minute per item up to a total of three minutes per meeting. The Council has determined that a cumulative
total of 20 minutes is a reasonable minimum amount of time for the Multiple Agenda Item segment of each regular
meeting.
The Council will also provide an opportunity for the public to speak on public interest items. Each speaker shall be
limited to one minute of general public comment each regular meeting for a cumulative total of ten (10) minutes. The
Council shall not discuss or take action relative to any general public comment.
If you wish to provide documents to the full Council for consideration on an item, please present the Sergeant-At-Arms
with 35 copies. Otherwise, your materials will simply be added to the official record.
NOTICE TO PAID REPRESENTATIVES - If you are compensated to monitor, attend, or speak at this meeting, City
law may require you to register as a lobbyist and report your activity. See Los Angeles Municipal Code 48.01 et seq.
More information is available at ethics.lacity.org/lobbying. For assistance, please contact the Ethics Commission at
(213) 978-1960 or ethics.commission@lacity.org.
COUNCIL DISCUSSION AND TIME LIMITS - Councilmembers requesting to address the Council will be recognized
by the Council President in the order requested. For any item, the Chairperson of the Committee, or the maker of the
original motion, or the member calling a matter "special" shall have up to six (6) minutes to discuss the item. All other
Councilmembers may speak up to three (3) minutes each on the matter. After all members desiring to speak on a
question have had an opportunity to be heard once, the time for each Member desiring to speak again shall be limited
to a maximum of three (3) minutes.
A motion calling the "previous question" may be introduced by any member during a Council debate. If adopted, this
motion will terminate debate on a matter and the Chair will instruct the Clerk to call the roll on the matter.
Wednesday - December 10, 2025 - PAGE 3
VOTING AND DISPOSITION OF ITEMS - Most items require a majority vote of the entire membership of the Council
(8 members). Items which have not been discussed in a Council Committee and have been placed directly on the
agenda will require 10 votes to consider. Once considered, these items will normally require eight (8) affirmative votes
to be adopted. Ordinances require a unanimous vote (at least 12 members must be present) in order to be adopted on
first consideration. If an ordinance does not receive the necessary unanimous vote, it is laid over one calendar week.
The votes required for approval on second consideration vary and depend upon the type of ordinance, but a typical
ordinance requires eight (8) affirmative votes upon second consideration.
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.

Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO and CLA report that there is no
immediate fiscal impact to the General Fund in 2025-26 as a result of
the recommendations in the report. The consolidation of the DOA,
EWDD, and YDD into the CIFD, to be renamed CID, would result in
the elimination of 21 positions and the addition of five new positions.
This will result in an annual savings of $3.52 million, consisting of
$0.78 million in General Fund and $2.74 million in Special Funds.
Additionally, lease and operating expense reductions will generate
$1,832,905 ($914,281 General Fund and $918,624 Special Fund) in
savings if the CIFD, EWDD, LADOA, and YDD are consolidated and
co-located at a City-owned site such as the Mangrove property. These
savings may be reduced by operational and maintenance costs at a
new location as well as one-time costs such as those associated with
relocating employees between worksites, modifying informational
technology systems, staff time to support the transition, and employee
payouts. The anticipated savings and the total cost to implement the
consolidation depend on the effective date of the consolidation. The
2025-26 Unappropriated Balance provides $630,000 for the
Community Investment for Families Department to enhance the
efficiency of community services programs Citywide. These funds
were intended for costs associated with the proposed consolidation.
Other potential benefits such as reduced contract execution timelines
for service providers, expedited processing and payment of invoices
cannot be quantified at this time.
Financial Policies Statement: The CAO and CLA report that the
recommendations in the report comply with the City's Financial
Policies as they support the City's goal to achieve and maintain a
structurally balanced budget in which future costs are projected to be
Wednesday - December 10, 2025 - PAGE 44

stated in the November 13, 2025 CAO report, attached to the Council
File, include transfers, appropriations, and authority for expenditures
totaling $7.4 million. This consists of $2.3 million from various special
funds, $4.2 million in MICLA funds, and $0.86 million in CTIEP funds.
All transfers and appropriations are based on existing funds,
reimbursements, or revenues. There is an unanticipated General
Fund impact in an amount not yet determined for operations and
maintenance costs of two facilities currently not in operation,
Barnsdall Art Park - Residence A and Engine Company 23 Youth Arts
Center. These costs will be addressed through the City budget
process at the time the facilities are scheduled for completion.
Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the
recommendations stated in the November 13, 2025 CAO report,
attached to the Council File, comply with the City’s Financial Policies
in that appropriations for funds are limited to available cash balances
Wednesday - December 10, 2025 - PAGE 51
needed to fund ongoing maintenance, programming, project
shortfalls, and critical operational needs in the current budget year.
Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA
debt is a General Fund obligation. The proposed MICLA fund
appropriation for the capital project described in the November 13,
2025 CAO report, attached to the Council (Item E - ITA Server Room
Upgrade Phase II) would cause the City to borrow $1.2 million at an
approximate 5.5 percent interest rate over a period of 20 years. The
total estimated debt service for the MICLA-funded projects is $2.0
million, including interest of approximately $0.8 million. The estimated
average annual debt service is $96,000 over a period of 20 years.
Actual interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on market
conditions at the time of issuance. The CAO cannot fully predict what
interest rates will be in the future. In accordance with the City's Debt
Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide
the evaluation of the affordability for future debt. The debt ceiling for
non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is
six percent. The 2025-26 Adopted Budget non-voter-approved debt
service ratio is 2.40 percent. The issuance of MICLA debt for these
projects will not cause the City to exceed the six percent non-voter-
approved debt limit.
