We want to protect all neighborhood\ncouncils’ right to advocate for their communities at any level of local\, county\, state\, or federal government and their\ndepartments and agencies.\nWhereas\, the Greater Toluca Lake Neighborhood Council (GTLNC) and other Neighborhood Councils have\n8\nadopted or supported a Declaration of Commitment to Representative Government\n(https://bit.ly/GTLNC_Declaration);\nWhereas\, this Declaration affirms these Neighborhood Councils’ role as democratically elected bodies representing\ntheir communities with full authority to advocate on their behalf;\nWhereas\, at the time of writing this motion\, seven other Neighborhood Councils have unanimously or near\nunanimously passed motions in support of GTLNC’s Declaration of Commitment to Representative Government;\nWhereas\, City of Los Angeles officials and attorneys are trying to limit GTLNC’s and other NCs’ free speech and\nadvocacy rights based on an unsigned\, memorandum from August 2020;\nWhereas\, the Los Angeles City Charter Article IX establishes that Neighborhood Councils “shall have an advisory\nrole on issues of concern to the neighborhood” but nowhere prohibits Neighborhood Councils from advocating to\nlocal\, county\, state\, or federal government and their departments and agencies on behalf of their stakeholders;\nWhereas\, these attempted restrictions violate both the spirit of Article IX and the First Amendment of the U.S.\nConstitution;\nWhereas\, the Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council has actively engaged with multiple levels of\ngovernment for nearly 25 years;\nWhereas\, WHWCNC regularly works with city government including the City Council\, Mayor’s Office\, city\ndepartments\, boards and commissions;\nWhereas\, WHWCNC has advocated with local\, county\, state\, and federal agencies including:\n• Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD)\n• LA Community College District (LACCD)\n• LA County Board of Supervisors\n• Metro Transportation Authority\n• Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy\n• South Coast Air Quality Management District\n• State and federal elected officials and their agencies;\nWhereas\, the LA City Council has 15 members\, each representing about 250\,000 residents;\nWhereas\, City Council members and the Mayor have limited time and ability to address highly local or technical\nissues that affect specific communities;\nWhereas\, Neighborhood Councils are made up of local engaged stakeholders who are elected or appointed by their\ncommunities;\nWhereas\, Neighborhood Councils are unique in that they represent entire communities rather than segmented\nspecial interest groups;\nWhereas\, Neighborhood Council board members take an oath of office\, receive training\, and follow procedures to\nensure their positions respect and understand diverse community interests and needs;\nWhereas\, these volunteers bring local knowledge and can focus on community-specific problems that city-wide\nofficials cannot address in detail;\nWhereas\, Neighborhood Councils speak for their own stakeholders\, not on behalf of the City of Los Angeles\, and\nuse clear disclaimers to prevent any confusion;\nWhereas\, Neighborhood Councils are advisory only to the City on City matters\, but nothing in the Charter\nprohibits them from advocating directly to local\, county\, state\, or federal government and their departments and\nagencies on issues affecting their communities;\nWhereas\, other levels of government recognize Neighborhood Councils as legitimate and trusted community\nvoices;\nWhereas\, restricting Neighborhood Councils from advocating to other levels of government would make them\nineffective on issues outside City jurisdiction\, including schools (LAUSD)\, transit (Metro)\, air quality (SCAQMD)\,\ncounty services\, state and federal legislation\, and other matters that directly impact local communities;\nWhereas\, WHWCNC supports preserving Neighborhood Councils’ full right to advocate on any community issue\n9\nbefore local\, county\, state\, or federal government and their departments and agencies without interference;\nWhereas\, Neighborhood Council board members volunteer their time without pay\, benefits\, or job protections\, and\ndeserve respect for their service;\nNow\, therefore\, be it resolved that the Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council:\n1. Supports the Greater Toluca Lake Neighborhood Council’s Declaration of Commitment to Representative\nGovernment and all Neighborhood Councils facing similar restrictions (https://bit.ly/GTLNC_Declaration);\n2. Condemns any efforts by City officials to illegally restrict Neighborhood Councils’ free speech and\nadvocacy rights;\n3. Commits to continue advocating with local\, county\, state\, and federal government and their departments\nand agencies on behalf of Woodland Hills residents and encourages all Neighborhood Councils to defend\ntheir advocacy rights;\n4. Supports creating a Neighborhood Council Bill of Rights in the City Charter that protects these advocacy\nrights\, to be voted on by Los Angeles residents;\n5.
