LAFD Station 84 asked us to pass on to the public their acknowledgment of generosity and appreciated the many physical donations received to help victims of the recent fires. However\, Fire Station 84 told us they no longer have the capacity to accept and distribute more physical items. They want us to share their request that you not bring more items to the fire station and donate them to non-profits supporting fire victims who can receive them. In lieu of physical items\, they request monetary donations be given to non-profit organizations such as the LA Fire Foundation. They provided this QR code to facilitate your donations. \nAlso see https://recovery.lacounty.gov/donations/ donations for info from Los Angeles County on making physical and monetary donations. It mentions Emergency Network Los Angeles (ENLA.org)\, California Community Foundation\, American Red Cross\, and the Salvation Army. \nPlease pass these notes on to your community. \n  \n\nAREA REPORTS – deferred until next full Board Meeting on February 12\, 2025.\n\n  \n  \n\n Items for Full Board Discussion and Possible Action: \n\n  \n(Board) Item 1 (25 -004)  Treasurer Heath Kline \nNC Funding Program Policy 5.0 -Expenditures of up to $1\,000.00 of NC Funds in Declared Fire Emergencies \n  \nReport and possible action                                                                                   (approximately 5 minutes) \nPer NC Funding Policy 5.0 the NC President has the unilateral authority to spend or direct the spending of up to $1\,000.00 in board funds from the Outreach Budget category without the normal advance funding approval of the board for emergency services and or supplies within the parameters defined in section 2 of the policy. \n  \nThe NC president will report to the board on any such spending and how it was used in connection with the emergency and provide receipts and other appropriate documentation for this spending. Due to an exigent situation\, if this spending had to be made from the personal funds of a board member\, including the president\, the president can direct the board member to be reimbursed (with proper documentation submitted to the City Clerk) and is exempt from the normal board member reimbursement policies. See section 4 of the policy. \n  \nThe board will ratify any such spending by passing a BAC. If board member reimbursement(s) are required\, the board shall pass individual BAC(s) approving the reimbursements\, and the treasurer is directed to submit all required documentation to the City Clerk per section 7 of the policy. \n  \nSee NC Funding Policy 5.0 attached. \n  \n  \n  \n(Board) Item 2 (25 -005) Board President Dena Weiss and Treasurer Heath Kline \nOption for the WHWCNC to Approve Up To $7\,000.00 In Outreach Funding To Support Government Entities and Non Profits\, which are Providing Support To First Responders and Victims of Our Current Fire Declared Emergency \n  \nReport\, discussion and possible action by the Full Board if a quorum of the board is present or just the Governance Committee if not:                                                                (approximately 20 minutes) \n  \n  \nWhile our Woodland Hills community has been mercifully spared from the devastating wildfires ravaging other parts of our City of Los Angeles and the County Los Angeles\, many of our neighboring communities have not been as fortunate. Across the county\, families have lost their homes\, cherished possessions\, and beloved pets\, and tragically\, some have lost their lives. The scope of destruction in these communities is unprecedented\, with damage estimates in the billions and a recovery timeline that will stretch for years to come. \nAs a Neighborhood Council\, and a voice of our local community spared from this disaster\, we have both an opportunity and a moral imperative to join other NCs to support our fellow Angelenos in their crisis. Our position as a city-funded entity allows us to extend assistance to communities devastated by these fires to start their healing process\, demonstrating the strength of Los Angeles’s interconnected community network. \nTo the credit of the Office of the City Clerk\, which administers all spending for the 99 NCs across the city\, it recognizes the potential difference we can make. It has given NCs unprecedented special\, simplified\, streamlined spending procedures to follow if NC boards wish to allocate a portion of their Outreach Budgets to help fund government entities and non-profits supporting first responders and victims to begin the healing process. The following motions allow the WHWCNC to act per the Clerk’s special funding rules for providing fire-related disaster relief. \nMultiple Board members have suggested multiple deserving causes. Thank you to all of those members who have reached out with suggestions. Suggestions still have to conform to the City requirements and rules.  Some of those suggestions include the following: \nThe Public Safety Committee requested funding to local food distribution for those effected by the fires: \n– West Valley Food Pantry: $333. \n– New Friends Homeless Center: $333. \n– About My Father’s Business: $333. \nThe Homeless and Social  Justice Advocacy Committee requested additional funding for the West Valley Food Pantry during these challenging times\, up to $2\,000.00. \nOther Board members have emailed suggestions about other worthy local providers who are assisting fire victims such as local animal shelters\, which are overwhelmed with injured and displaced pets. \nIn consideration of all of the input received\,  the following motion is suggested to the Board: \nMotion: The WHWCNC will expend up to $7\,000 of its available FY-24-25 Outreach Budget\, as delineated as follows  to provide funding to the following known\, established and City approved non-profit organizations that are providing support and disaster relief to our first responders and victims in need specifically because of our current fire declared emergency: \nThe WHWNC Board directs the NC Treasurer to submit to the City Clerk the necessary BAC and supporting documentation (Contribution Payment Form\, Invoice\, etc. See supporting Doc email “Expenditures in Support of the Wildfire Emergency Relief Efforts” sent from Clerk.ncfunding@lacity.org sent January 13 attached) for approval and funding by check preferably (to save these organizations the merchant credit card discount fees) or NC credit card the following; \n  \n\n$1\,000 to the West Valley Food Pantry c/o its Fiscal Agent on file with the City Clerk earmarked for its Fire Victims Aid program.\n\n  \n\n$2\,000 to In Defense of Animals (IDA) with instructions for IDA to distribute our contribution between the West Valley Animal Shelter (WVAS) location of City of LA Dept. of Animal Services and the Large Animal Evacuation Center located at Pierce College.\n\nIDA is an established non-profit on file with the City Clerk that the Tarzana NC has used before to direct its donations to the WVAS because NCs cannot direct funding directly to other City entities like our City animal shelters.

It was not heard at our regularly scheduled January board meeting because the meeting had to be canceled due to the Fire Emergency. Hearing this item now will negate the need for another special meeting before our February meeting. \n  \nWoodland Hills -Warner Center Neighborhood Council \nPLUM Committee\, date December 19\, 2024  MOTION – Case: CPC-2024-4893-DB-SPPC-HCA and ENV-2024-4894-CE\, located at 19923 Ventura Blvd\, Woodland Hills\, CA 91367 \n  \nAs pertaining to Case CPC-2024-4893-DB-SPPC-HCA and ENV-2024-4894-CE\, located at 19923 Ventura Blvd\, Woodland Hills\, CA 91367\, after having held three (3) in person or virtual zoom public meetings for review of the application filed by Dan Hosseini/19923 Ventura LLC. \n  \nProject Description: The project is a New Mixed-Use Residential Apartment Complex over Commercial: \nThe Lot Size is 14\,484.9 feet. The applicant proposes a 54-unit (7) story building with 1st floor parking \narea and first floor 1\,249.8 SF commercial space with (1) floor of subterranean parking. \nThe project includes a (5) story 39 feet by 27 feet open interior courtyard with walkway surrounding the open space that is open to above. \nThe project will have per AB 1287 (6) very low-income apartments which allows the applicant to request from the City various bonuses\, waivers\, exemptions and incentives to maximize profit. \nThe lot is zoned for C1-1VLD Neighborhood Office Commercial with Very Low Density. \nThe project’s residential portion will provide (44) automobile parking spaces\, (60) long-term bicycle parking stalls and five (5) short-term bicycle parking stalls. \nThe open space is primarily located in a second-floor courtyard\, a roof top deck\, and on private balconies. \nThe project proposes grading and exporting up to 3\,365 cubic yards of earth to create a basement parking lot. \n  \nWhereas the developer is requesting the following Bonus\, Exemptions\, Waivers and Incentives. \n  \n\nPursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15311\, Class 11\, and Section 15332\, Class 32\, an exemption from CEQA and that there is no substantial evidence demonstrating that an exception to a categorical exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines\, Section 15300.2 applies.\n\n  \n\nPursuant to Section 12.22 A.25(g)(3) of the Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC)\, a Density Bonus for a project totaling 54 dwelling units (six (6) units as Restricted Affordable Housing Units for Very Low Income households and 48 market-rate units.\n\n  \nThe Density Bonus for zone C1-1VLD (very low density) properties allows one unit for every 800 square feet of lot area. The applicant seeks a density bonus per AB 1287 (6) low income housing units and requesting lot area calculations to include ½ of the back alley to allow for a larger project. \n  \n\nadditional height from 30 feet to 85 feet 5 inches\, an approximate 160% increase\nincrease in Floor Area Ratio from 1 to 1 to 4.03 to 1\, an approximate 365% increase\nreduction of LAMC required parking from 89 spaces to 44 spaces\n\n  \nwith the following Incentives and Waivers: \n  \n\nOff-Menu Incentive to allow a (FAR) floor area ratio of 4.03:1 instead of the permitted 1.0:1 per the Ventura/Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Specific Plan Section 6.B.3;\n\n  \n  \n\nOff-Menu Incentive to allow a height of 85 feet and 5 inches instead of the permitted 30 feet per the Ventura/Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Specific Plan Section 7.E.1.e.1;\n\n  \n\nOff-Menu Incentive to allow 44 automobile parking spaces for the residential portion of the\n\ndevelopment instead of the required 89 spaces per the LAMC Code Section 12.21 A.4(a); \n  \n\nWaiver of Development Standards from the Ventura/Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Specific\n\nPlan lot coverage standard as required by Specific Plan Section 7.B.2 to allow a lot coverage of 88 percent instead of the permitted 60 percent; \n  \n\nWaiver of Development Standards from the Ventura/Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Specific\n\nPlan height setback standard as required by the Specific Plan Section 7.E.1.g to allow the building to exceed 45 feet in height without providing at least a 10 foot setback for each 10 foot increment above 45 feet; \n  \n\nWaiver of Development Standards from the compact parking stall standard as required by\n\nLAMC Section 12.21 A.5(c) to allow seven (7) compact parking stalls to be provided without \nfirst providing one standard parking stall per dwelling unit; \n  \n\nPursuant to Section 13B.4.2 of Chapter 1A of the LAMC and Section 9 of the Ventura-Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Specific Plan\, Project Compliance to permit the construction of a mixed-use development comprising 54 dwelling units and 1\,250 square feet of commercial floor area and a sign.\n\n  \nTHEREFORE\, the WHWCNC PLUM Committee finds the proposed project vastly does not comply with the standard construction requirements of the City of Los Angeles and the Ventura-Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Specific Plan and for the following findings: \n  \nWhereas\, Parking. \n\nThe Applicant requests a reduction from 89 required parking spaces to 44 parking spaces and a waiver to allow (7) compact parking spaces without providing the required 54 standard parking spaces or (1) standard parking space per unit.\nThe car park has tandem parking\, which is problematic as there is no onsite parking attendant to move cars that could be blocked by another car.\nThe project appears to provide only (1) exterior parking space located at the back of the building.\nThe applicant does not address where the majority of the residents will park\, as Ventura Blvd. has metered parking and the project residents cannot park on side streets\, in adjacent business parking lots or on residential streets as this would cause a hardship for businesses and stakeholders.\nThe Applicant does not address Guest Parking.\nThe Project provides (25) two-bedroom units but does not provide (25) tandem parking spaces.\nThe lower parking ramp is 8’- 2” which may not provide headroom for trucks.\nDriveway Access – The driveway access for two-way traffic does not meet the (35) feet wide requirement.\nThe Applicant does not address required ingress and egress for the Fire Department.\nThe street access entry ramp = 19’- 0” therefore the alley should meet the same width requirements\n\n  \nLADOT has determined there does not need to be a traffic study as of August 2024. \nThe WHWCNC PLUM Committee requests LADOT to conduct a traffic study as the reduced parking will have an extremely negative effect on project residents\, adjacent businesses and single-family neighborhoods and also address required street entrances and exits for fire trucks and ambulances. \nWhereas\, the Applicant requests a Lot Size increase to 15\,691.3 sq. ft. when the ACTUAL Lot Size is \n14\, 484.9 sq. ft. \nThe applicant is requesting City Planning to allow the inclusion of ½ of the alley behind the project to be able to reach the requested 15\,691.3 s. ft. which allows the applicant to build a larger project than normally allowed and receive a greater density bonus. \n  \nWhereas\, the project can be built only if the City allows numerous off menu Exemptions\, Waivers and Incentives which may cause unnecessary harm to the surrounding neighborhoods and businesses. \nThe Density Bonus for zone C1-1VLD (very low density) properties allows one unit for every 800 square feet of lot area. The applicant seeks to take advantage of the density bonus per AB 1287 by providing (6) low-income housing units in order to vastly overbuild the site \n  \nThe applicant has made other various Categorical Exemption Findings that can be questioned as for example he states there are other high rise commercial/residential buildings in the area. \nThere is only one four story building in the area\, which is a commercial office building. \n  \nThe applicant does not provide any proof that the maximized design of the building and the site is “needed” “necessary” or “required” nor does the Applicant provide any proof that the design benefits or improves low-income housing concerns in the area or Los Angeles. \n  \nWhereas\, the applicant is requesting an Environmental Categorical Exemption (CE) Class 32 CE (CP-7828). However\, the project is within five hundred (500) feet of the 101 Freeway and the applicant is proposing a roof top deck\, balconies and an open air five story courtyard where residents could be subjected to health risks from freeway pollution ultrafine particulate matter. Single family neighborhoods are located North and South of the project and will be subjected loss of privacy and noise pollution from the roof top deck. \n  \nWhereas\, the Project is located within five hundred feet of the 101Freeway. The project has (6) low-income units but the project also has (48) market value units. However\, the Applicant does not provide any indoor amenities found in other NEW market value projects in Woodland Hills. \n  \nWhereas\, the applicant does not provide mitigation measures per the Los Angeles Public Health Report and City Zoning ZI No. 227 and Best Practice Mitigation Measures to Reduce Exposure to Road Pollution \n\nBuilding design measures:\nSite apartment units as far as possible from the source of air pollution.\nDouble-glaze all windows in the housing units to reduce exposure to air pollution.\nAvoid or limit the placement of balconies on the side of the building facing the freeway/high\n\nvolume roadway. \n\nDesign buildings with varying shapes and heights to help break up air pollution emission\n\nplumes\, increase air flow\, and help reduce pollutants such as particulates and noise. \n  \n\nSite-related measures:\nWhere possible\, erect a sound wall between the development and the freeway to help serve as a noise and air pollution barrier.\nPlant vegetation barriers between the freeway/high volume roadway and the housing site to\n\nhelp with pollution reduction. \n\nPlant additional trees surrounding the housing development to further mitigate air pollution.\n\n  \nWhereas the PLUM Committee finds the Applicant has also not provided mitigation measures for the following: \n  \nBalconies – The Applicant has defined the balconies as being part of the Open Space calculation. \nHowever\, balconies should not face the 101 freeway and should not be allowed on the sides of the building as the project is within 500 feet of the 101 freeway. \nFurthermore\, the balconies cannot be counted as open space as the balconies have a roof. \n  \nThe Roof Top Deck is defined as Open Space and designed to be used as a recreational space for residents. \nThe roof top deck is open air and is within 500 feet of the 101 freeway. The deck will expose all residents to freeway road pollution which is hazardous to the health of the residents. \nFurthermore\, the roof top deck cannot be counted as open space nor landscaped green space as there is mechanical equipment on the roof. \n  \nThe Roof Top Deck is open air and therefore noise coming from the deck cannot be mitigated. \nUnmitigated noise pollution such as loud parties\, loud conversations and loud music will affect the wellbeing of the neighbors and the property values of the surrounding single-family neighborhoods and businesses. \n  \nInterior Five Story Courtyard \n\nThe applicant defines the 39 x 27 feet FIVE STORY Inner Courtyard as Open Space. However\, this “open space” is in fact a FIVE STORY AIR SPACE which could be hazardous to residents\, children and pets as they could fall as far as five stories.\nThis air space is also open to the roof top deck.\nThe rooftop deck is open to the lower courtyard but does not provide a five (5) feet stepped back buffer with two (2) railings.\nA 42-inch tall railing is not tall enough as even a child can climb over the railing and fall.\nAll apartment doors and windows open onto this small interior (5) story air space that is 39 feet wide by 27 feet deep. This is a potential invasion of privacy and exposes residents\, including children\, to all smells emanating from all apartments including possible cigarette smoke\, marijuana smoke\, toxic fumes and all varieties of noise pollution and sound echo effect coming from other residents’ apartments.\nThe five-story courtyard/air shaft design is reminiscent of 1800’s New York tenement inner courtyard double dumbbell air shafts that were deemed illegal and a health hazard for residents.\nThe small five story “courtyard” air space will not allow for proper air circulation\, air quality and proper distribution of sun light.\nThe Applicant cannot count the second story courtyard as open space nor landscaped greenspace\, as the area is 90% hardscape.\n\n  \nTherefore\, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that the Planning Land Use and Mobility Committee for the findings stated herein\, will not support the application and plans submitted by Dan Hosseini/19923 Ventura LLC \, and recommend non-support of the Board of the Woodland Hills-Warner Center NeighborhoodCouncil(WHWCNC) \n  \nFurthermore\, all plans that have been presented either in person or electronically to the PLUM Committee and the Board of the WHWCNC shall be submitted to Planning as a final project plan application submittal. \n  \n\nThe applicant will not submit any significant\, further updated plans or changes without first presenting them to the WHWCNC. Any modifications to the elevation(s)/ architecture of any other changes that are no longer in substantial conformance will be presented first to the WHWCNC before submitting them to City Planning.\n\n  \n  \nThe Planning\, Land Use and Mobility Committee recommends that the Board of the Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council advise the City of Los Angeles Planning Department and Council District 3 Councilmember Bob Blumenfield of its findings and recommendation. \n  \nVote to not support the project: Aye: 6         Nay: 0           Abstain: 0 \n  \nSee Attached 21-page PLUM Report & stakeholder letter in supporting documents attachment. \n  \nFull Board Roll call vote \n  \n  \nGOVERNANCE COMMITTEE AGENDA ITEMS \n  \n  \nItem 4 (25 -007) Review by Governance Committee of qualifications for Juliet Ladines Schwarz to apply for the Area 7 Alternate position.

and\, \nWhereas\, the COVID-19 pandemic necessitated the transition to virtual meetings to protect public health\, leading to increased accessibility and participation by Angelenos in Neighborhood Council activities; and\, \nWhereas\, the expiration of State of Emergency modifications to the Brown Act resulted in a significant drop in participation from board members and community stakeholders\, disproportionately affecting disadvantaged communities; and\, \nWhereas\, Members of our Board have resigned due to the inability for various reasons to meet in person; and\, \nWhereas\, Board vacancies are more difficult to fill due to the requirement to meet in person; and\, \nWhereas\, California Senate Bill 411\, passed by the State Legislature\, allows Neighborhood Councils the option to conduct virtual meetings\, ensuring public participation during future emergencies or exceptional circumstances; and\, \nWhereas\, the City Council\, through the approval of Council File 23-1114\, endorses and supports Neighborhood Councils in making decisions regarding virtual meetings; and\, \n  \nWhereas SB 411 requires this Board to formally approve meeting virtually but must also physically meet annually at least once; and\, \nWhereas\, our local libraries and fire stations’ meeting rooms often have limited availability\, limit the use of audiovisual equipment\, have no or limited parking for public meetings and thereby are not conducive to effective committee or board meetings; and\, \nWhereas\, the City does not allow free use of private facilities; and\, \nWhereas\, private facilities are expensive to rent\, poorly equipped for public meetings\, and may lack ADA-approved facilities; and\, \nWhereas\, virtual meetings provide the opportunity to receive testimony from distant experts and officials\, enriching the quality of our discussions and decision-making; and\, \nWhereas\, Board Members and community members with senior care or parental duties may struggle to secure alternate care in the evenings\, limiting their participation and achieving a diversity of opinions; and\, \nWhereas\, Los Angeles is a vast city\, where Board Members and community stakeholders often face long commutes\, making it difficult for them to attend in-person meetings on time or at all; and\, \nWhereas\, dedicated board members and committee stakeholders may often travel for their day jobs\, preventing them from participating in person due to scheduling conflicts; and\, \nWhereas\, utilization of Virtual Meetings and Hybrid Virtual/Physical Meetings mitigates the above stated factors limiting community participation; and\, \n  \nWhereas\, the original intent of the Brown Act was to open meetings to the public for transparency not afforded by secret meetings and Virtual Meetings extend transparency beyond in-person meetings aby allowing more of the public to participate and observe; \nNow\, therefore\, it is resolved that the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council\, under California Senate Bill 411 and Council File 23-1114\, authorizes the use of virtual and hybrid-virtual meetings as a valid and necessary means to conduct the council’s Board and Committee meetings. \nCommunity Impact Statement \nThe decision to implement virtual meetings will have several positive impacts on our community: \n\nEnhanced Accessibility: Virtual meetings will facilitate participation for residents\, including those with mobility issues or busy schedules.\nIncreased Engagement: Remote meetings will attract a wider and more diverse range of community members\, fostering richer and more inclusive discussions.\nSafety: Virtual meetings will protect our community members during health emergencies\, ensuring their safety while engaging in civic matters.\nImproved Facilities: Virtual meetings address limitations of public and private facilities\, including the lack of ADA-approved facilities and limited availability during convenient hours.\nAccess to Expertise: Virtual meetings enable access to testimony from distant experts and officials\, enhancing decision-making and informed choices.\nBoard Member Participation: Board members with day job commitments involving travel can fully participate\, strengthening our council.\n\nIn conclusion\, adopting virtual meetings aligns with our Neighborhood Council’s commitment to enhancing community engagement\, ensuring accessibility\, addressing facility limitations\, and accommodating the schedules of dedicated board members. This decision will ultimately strengthen our council and provide a better platform for our community to shape our neighborhood’s future. \n  \nItem Thirteen: \nReview\, discussion\, and possible action related to Board member attendance in compliance with Woodland Hills Warner Center Neighborhood Council Bylaws Section 7: “Absences”. \n  \nRoll Call Vote regarding derelict members. \n  \nADJOURNMENT.
