For discussion and possible action (estimated time 5 minutes)

Whereas: The WHIP Committee has provided a four-page report containing a proposed DRAFT CIS Portal Summary and a detailed DRAFT CIS Statement to be filed with the City Clerk. For the reasons stated in this report, the WHWCNC strongly opposes:

Instead, the WHWCNC requests that the City of Los Angeles implements our positive alternative policies and actions to improve the NC system for the betterment of all Angelenos.

Therefore: The WHWCNC officially adopts the positions taken in the WHIP Draft CIS and directs:

The Officers of the Board to: (a.) Communicate this position with City Officials and other NCs (b.) File this CIS with the City Clerk.
The Outreach Committee to share our position with: (a.) The media (b.) Our stakeholder base.
