Discussion and possible action regarding determining the need for Council Member Blumenfield to initiate the process leading to an update to the Warner Center 2035 Specific Plan to better serve the community.

Given that the Planning Department believes the Warner Center 2035 Plan may reach the residential limits of the EIR within 6-8 years, and given that the economy may be permanently changed, and given that the current plan took 8 years to create, is it time for the community to work with planning on updating the plan to meet community needs and improve on some of the discovered problems?

(21-089) LAUSD Redistricting – Council File:20-0668-56
Discussion and possible action: (15 minutes)
Opposition to LAUSD Redistricting Commission Recommended Map
The Woodland Hills – Warner Center Education Committee unanimously* moves that the full WHWCNC Board strongly oppose the LAUSD Redistricting Commission Final Recommendation Map sent to the LA City Council for ratification. Instead, the LA City Council should adopt the original unrevised LAUSD DRAFT Map 2 to establish the district boundaries for LAUSD District 3 for the West San Fernando Valley and District 6 for the East San Fernando Valley. Using the original unrevised Draft Map 2 boundaries will result in each district having school board members who can focus their attention and understanding on unique compact districts of numerous overlapping common communities of interest and concern.
The LA City Council should keep LAUSD District 4 on the south side of the Santa Monica Mountains to serve West Los Angeles and adjoining LAUSD beach communities. These recommendations are based on the following CIS statement-report and attached map. Community Impact Statement from the Woodland Hills Warner Center Neighborhood Council Re: Council File: 20-0668-S6- LAUSD Redistricting Commission Recommended Map To: Los Angeles City Council, Office of Mayor Garcetti From: Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council (WHWCNC) Re: Council File: 20-0668-S6- LAUSD Redistricting Commission Recommended Map
The Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council [WHWCNC] strongly opposes the Final Recommendation Map adopted by the LAUSD Redistricting Commission submitted on October 29, 2021,
to the Los Angeles City Council.
Instead, the WHWCNC endorses and asks the LA City Council to adopt the original, unrevised LAUSD DRAFT Map 2 [see referenced maps below] to establish the district boundaries for LAUSD District 3 for the West San Fernando Valley and District 6 for the East San Fernando Valley.
The Los Angeles City Charter frames several key criteria and standards applicable to redistricting; equal population and the consideration of traditional redistricting criteria such as communities of interest, existing boundaries and geographical compactness, compliance with the Voting Rights Act. Ignoring these requirements, the LAUSD Redistricting Commission placed a small section of the West San Fernando Valley (portions of Woodland Hills and Reseda, and Encino and Tarzana communities) into Board District
4 and not into the adjoining West San Fernando Valley Board District 3.
The currently proposed District 4 has the largest population of any district; 705,226. The presently proposed District 4 has the highest CVAP (Community Voting Age Population) percentage of white voters; 65.94%, and only 14.68% Latino and 5.64% Black.
The charter mandates that Neighborhoods and Communities of Interest should be preserved by drawing boundary lines to maintain communities that share common interests in a single district.
A community of interest is a population that shares common social and economic interests and should be kept together in a single district to provide fair and effective representation:
• shared housing patterns
• income levels
• cultural and language characteristics
• work opportunities
• crime related issues
• social infrastructure-neighborhood councils, community service organizations, feeder schools, sports leagues, recreational areas, religious institutions, and public infrastructures such as public transportation, fire, and police precincts.
The charter mandates that neighborhoods and communities should be kept intact and utilize natural boundaries and street lines and be geographically compact respecting:
• Contiguity; all parts of a district should connect
• Compactness; a district should be geographically compact
• Existing Boundaries; the redistricting commission should consider geographic, street, and natural boundaries.
The currently proposed District 4 map ignores all the above redistricting criteria:
• The New District 4 has the largest population in Los Angeles
• The new District 4 is the least diverse school board district
• The communities in the West San Fernando Valley were separated from their neighboring communities of interest. Carving off some schools and placing them as orphaned appendages to a district focused on the other side of the Santa Monica Mountains, where they share no common interests, social or public infrastructure, or feeder schools. What does Woodland Hills share or have in common with Pacific Palisades, Westchester, or Larchmont?
• The New District 4 is the largest geographical district in the LAUSD, extending from north of Mulholland to as far south as Redondo Beach and Larchmont to the east. District 4 should use the natural boundary line of the Santa Monica Mountains, south of Mulholland, as its border and not isolate a small portion of the San Fernando Valley north of Mulholland from its adjoining neighbors.
The LAUSD Redistricting Commission ignored the community impact statements, emails, and public comments from the West San Fernando Valley. Therefore, the WHWCNC opposes the Final Recommendation Map adopted by the LAUSD Redistricting Commission that separates a small portion of our community and schools from the rest of the West San Fernando Valley, which is in District 3 and places part of our neighborhood and its schools incongruously in District 4.
We urge the Los Angeles City Council to reject the Final Recommendation Map and unite the entirety of Woodland Hills, Reseda, Tarzana, and Encino with their neighbors in LAUSD Board District 3 as drawn in the original unrevised Map 2. Please do not disenfranchise the needs and concerns of the West San Fernando Valley.

(21-091) DIR-2021-6537-SPP
21016-21020 Ventura Blvd., Paoli’s Piano Bar and Pizza Restaurant
Discussion and possible action: (15 minutes)
As pertains to Case DIR-2021-6537-SPP and Case ENV-2021-6538-CE, having held 2 public PLUM teleconference meetings, regarding the proposed projects at 21016-21020 Ventura Blvd., Woodland Hills, CA, 91364, and the application to remodel Paoli’s Piano Bar and Pizza Restaurant as well as expand applicant’s business into an adjacent structure, to be remodeled from a retail space into a restaurant intended to be called Mykonos Deli, and to request variances regarding parking requirements, the Planning, Land Use and Mobility Committee hereby finds that:
WHEREAS, Paoli’s Piano Bar and Pizza Restaurant has been operating for 36 years with no reported related negative incidents; and,
WHEREAS, the applicant’s anticipated new business may result in some additional traffic and street parking; and,
WHEREAS, the applicant is requesting to reclassify the space adjacent to his existing business from a retail designation to restaurant designation to be consistent with anticipated use; and,
WHEREAS, the applicant is proposing to remodel the existing business space (Paoli’s Piano Bar and Pizza Restaurant) and the adjacent space for an anticipated business (Mykonos Deli); and,
WHEREAS, at the conclusion of the changes to the building and space from a retail designation to restaurant designation, the seating capacity of the interior rear dining area and the remaining patio will be unchanged; and,
WHEREAS, the applicant, unable to provide additional on-site parking spaces is requesting relief per the Ventura/Cahuenga BLVD Corridor Specific Plan per Section 7,F, 2., “Alternative for Parking,” and,
WHEREAS, the Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council requests that the kitchen and the bathroom remodel effectively improve the current LA County Health Department rating to be brought up to an “A;” and,
WHEREAS, the Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council strongly requests valet parking with an agreement with a local business to rent parking spaces as a solution to the lack of the 6 required spaces for Mykonos Deli in lieu of paying the parking space penalty fees.
THEREFORE, the Planning, Land Use, and Mobility Committee, for the findings and
conditions stated herein, finds that the submitted application and plans by Paoli’s Piano Bar and
Pizza Restaurant and Antonio’s Simos of ASIMOS Design for the proposed expansion and request for variances regarding parking requirements at 21016-21020 Ventura Blvd. Woodland Hills, CA 91364, receive the support of the Board of the Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council for the requested actions contingent upon the following conditions:
Conditions
1. Because Paoli’s Piano Bar and Pizza Restaurant and Mykonos Deli are joined by an interior hallway, the applicant must provide documentation showing the existing liquor license complies with the addition of the new deli space and update the liquor license if required.
2. If Mykonos Deli keeps the existing signage boxes, they must comply with the requirements for signs in the Ventura/Cahuenga BLVD Corridor Specific Plan.
FURTHERMORE, The Planning, Land Use, and Mobility Committee recommend 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 its subsequent recommendation to support this application as presented on November 10, 2021.

Approval of Minutes

Discussion and possible action regarding determining the need for Council Member Blumenfield to initiate the process leading to an update to the Warner Center 2035 Specific Plan to better serve the community.

Given that the Planning Department believes the Warner Center 2035 Plan may reach the residential limits of the EIR within 6-8 years, and given that the economy may be permanently changed, and given that the current plan took 8 years to create, is it time for the community to work with planning on updating the plan to meet community needs and improve on some of the discovered problems?

CODE OF CIVILITY

Collectively and individually, all elected, appointed, or selected members of the WH-WCNC agree to abide by the Code of Civility to ensure that our NC’s business is conducted in respectful and courteous manner and in a manner that will generate respect and credibility for our NC.
The Freedom to express one’s views about public matters is cornerstone of the democratic process.

The WH-WCNC welcomes the diverse views and opinions of our board members and stakeholders as they relate to the issues before us. In order for these discussions to be meaningful and effective, we shall treat others with courtesy and dignity.

By adoption of the code of civility and by incorporating this code of civility into our Standing Rules, we collectively and individually agree to abide by our Code of Civility.

As representatives of the WH-WCNC, we shall conduct ourselves in a professional manner, including treating each member of the Board and members of the public with esteem and deference.

During Neighborhood Council meetings, functions, or events we will not engage in or threaten to engage in any verbal or physical attach on any individual. We will not use language or physical gestures that are abusive, threatening, intimidating, obscene, or slanderous including using profanities, insults, or other disparaging remarks. We believe that derogatory language about an individual’s ethnicity, race, sexuality, age, disability, or religion is not acceptable.

We will promote and enforce a safe meeting environment at all times. If members of the Board or the public become disruptive and violate the code of civility, we will join our fellow Board members in demanding that the person(s) conduct themselves in a respectful and orderly manner even if we do not agree with the point of view being expressed.

The President will have the authority to mitigate the disruption by any reasonable and professional manner available to them.

We will commit to communicate our ideas and points of view clearly and allow others to do the same without interruption. We will practice the art of being able to disagree without being disagreeable.

We will commit to learn the applicable laws that govern Neighborhood Councils, including, but not limited to, the bylaws, standing rules, meeting procedures, the Brown Act, conflict of interest laws, applicable city ordinances, and the City Charter, and will not knowingly violate any of them thereby fostering and maintaining a professional environment for conducting business.

We will present information truthfully, and will not knowingly misrepresent, mischaracterize, misstate, or misquote information received from others.

If we find ourselves representing our personal interests before our community’s interests, we will publicly disclose the differences and recuse ourselves from voting on such matters, and we will ask for advice from the City Attorney wherever we have doubts.

We will commit to good faith efforts to resolve grievances that come before the Board as specified in the Bylaws or Standing Rules.

Out of respect to our fellow Board members, the public, and the decision makers who we are trying to influence, we will make the best possible effort to understand the issues before us.

The grant will benefit the children with opportunities for hands on learning and participation in a group science lesson using materials beyond computers and books.
These science kits contain educational materials vital to learning science in an
engaging manner, which is something all school children have missed due to the pandemic.
This grant will greatly help in making sure that all students have access to high level and

WHEREAS, a Director’s Interpretation for WC 2035 SP Section 5.3.2.7.2 for horizontal additions will be needed to successfully complete the renovation plans and still remain within the Specific Plan guidelines; and,

WHEREAS, the exterior remodeling submitted will substantially upgrade the structure architecturally by changing the existing roofline and re-cladding the structure in more contemporary exterior materials; and,

WHEREAS, the requested changes will retain a long-time, high-end Warner Center dining establishment in the Downtown District and help to attract additional commercial activity and enterprises to the commercial center of Warner Center; and,
WHEREAS, all of the required 2035 Warner Center Specific Plan requirements for parking, Publically Accessible Open Space (PAOS) and connectivity will be maintained and or enhanced; and,

WHEREAS, the application for the alcohol CUB is being made under a separate case filing, and signage must meet the 2035 WCSP sign ordinance requirements and will be subject to approval by the Los Angeles City Planning Department before installation;

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that the Planning Land Use and Mobility Committee and the full Board of the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council, for the findings and conditions stated herein, finds that application and plans submitted by Ruth’s Hospitality Group Inc. and its affiliated architects and representatives receive the support of the Board of the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council (WHWCNC) for their requested actions contingent upon the following conditions:
