Vital-Documents Envelopes for Unhoused Persons\nDiscussion and possible action:\nMotion: \n  \n[DRAFT MOTION] \nTitle: Vital-Documents Envelopes for Unhoused Persons \nWHEREAS\, clean-up operations conducted by the City of Los Angeles\, including LA Sanitation’s Liva-bility Services Division\, often remove and discard important identifying documents belonging to unhoused individuals; and\nWHEREAS\, these documents include driver licenses\, birth certificates\, Permanent Resident Cards\, natu-ralization certificates\, Social Security cards\, paycheck stubs\, and other vital documents; and\nWHEREAS\, unhoused individuals typically face extraordinary hurdles and barriers to replace these docu-ments lost during sanctioned City clean-up operations and activities; and\nWHEREAS\, these hurdles and barriers include a lack of funds or administrative or technical resources and assistance to re-apply for these vital documents\, as well as lengthy application processes; and\nWHEREAS\, unhoused individuals need these vital documents when seeking housing of any type\, such that their loss results in a prolongation of their periods of homelessness; and\nWHEREAS\, the loss of vital documents during clean-up activities has revealed a great need for a way to protect important and valuable documents of the unhoused community from City-mandated and -sponsored sweeps; and\nWHEREAS\, an effective approach toward protecting these documents is to provide\, free of charge to the unhoused person\, a durable\, City-protected\, resealable envelope that is easily identifiable by all City personnel\, including employees of LA Sanitation’s Livability Services Division and the LAPD’s HOPE teams; and\nWHEREAS\, such an envelope would be transparent and stamped with the City of Los Angeles official seal so that when a clean-up is being conducted\, City employees and officials can easily identify it as a Vital-Documents Envelope and handle it with special care\, recognizing that it contains important documents; and\nWHEREAS\, City personnel conducting clean-ups through LA Sanitation’s Livability Services Division\, which includes CARE and HOPE teams\, will be notified by their respective departments that the envelopes are legally protected from being seized and discarded during clean-up operations and are to be returned to the owner if they are inadvertently taken during the clean-up; and\nWHEREAS\, if\, due to circumstances beyond the control of the clean-up teams\, Vital-Documents Enve-lopes end up in their possession\, a notice will be posted at the clean-up site with contact details as to how an unhoused person may retrieve their Vital-Documents Envelope; these details include the name of a human be-ing to call and email\, the address of the physical location where the Vital-Documents Envelope will be kept safe\, a phone number\, an email address\, and a URL containing all of these details; and\nWHEREAS\, the use of a Vital-Documents Envelope will reduce the risk of losing important documents\, which are needed to support unhoused individuals’ efforts to leave their dire situations; and\nWHEREAS\, having clean-up-proof documents will quicken the process of finding housing; and\nWHEREAS\, durable\, sealable and waterproof envelopes will help protect documents from being damaged by weather or other external forces; keeping documents clean and undamaged benefits the office personnel at homeless-services agencies and organizations in the Continuum of Care because office workers will encounter better-organized and cleaner documents rather than soiled\, torn\, and faded ones; and\nWHEREAS\, these Vital-Documents Envelopes should be offered to each unhoused person who makes contact with a homeless-services agency or organization or a lead agency operating in the City under the um-brella of the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority; and\nWHEREAS\, outreach workers from any homeless-services agency or organization or lead agency should offer these Vital-Documents Envelopes to unhoused individuals with a clear explanation of how these enve-lopes will protect their documents from being seized and discarded during City clean-up activities; and\nWHEREAS\, these Vital-Documents Envelopes should be purchased by the City of Los Angeles from its list of approved vendors and provided to every homeless-services agency and organization and lead agency operating under the umbrella of LAHSA; THEREFORE\nBE IT RESOLVED that the Homelessness Committee of the WHWCNC ADVISES the board of the Woodland Hills–Warner Center Neighborhood Council to APPROVE this proposal for Vital-Documents En-velopes and to URGE Councilmember Bob Blumenfield and his colleagues on the Los Angeles City Council to immediately and urgently devise a cost-sharing arrangement with the County of Los Angeles to realize the purchase\, allocation\, and distribution of Vital-Documents Envelopes to all homeless-services agencies and or-ganizations operating under the umbrella of LAHSA for the purpose of distribution to each unhoused Angele-no who comes into contact with these agencies and organizations. \n5.

C. 4\, (“RA” Suburban Zone Standards minimum width requirement); and\,\nWHEREAS\, the proposed lot split and subsequent development can impinge on the animal keeping privileges of adjoining property owners authorized by the RA-1 zoning regulations\, and thus deprive owners of the value of the RA-1 zoning for which they paid; and\,\nWHEREAS\, the proposed lot split will result in a nonconforming flag lot increasing the density\, in a very low density residential community as designated by the General Plan\, and thus deprive Walnut Acres owners of the value of the RA-1 zoning for which they paid; and\,\nWHEREAS\, the proposed lot split and nonconforming flag lot will potentially create privacy issues and conflicts with adjoining residents\, and will potentially depreciate the value of adjoining properties; and\,\nWHEREAS\, flag lots change the character of the Walnut Acres community and have the potential to destroy the character and semi-rural atmosphere of the entire Walnut Acres RA-1 zoned community thus depriving Walnut Acres owners of the value of the RA-1 zoning for which they paid; and\,\nWHEREAS\, the CD3 Council Office and the South Valley Area Planning Commission have opposed lot splits in the neighborhood in the past\, and there have been no new lot splits approved in Walnut Acres since 2006; and\,\nWHEREAS\, most existing flag lots in the Walnut Acres community pre-date the current regulations\, and according to City Planning may not be developable because they cannot meet current fire regulations\, and thus set no precedent for this application.\nTHEREFORE\, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED\, that the Planning\, Land Use and Mobility Committee\, for the findings and conditions stated herein above\, finds that the application for subdivision of an RA-1 zoned parcel at 22838 Erwin Street into two lots creating a flag lot\, not receive the support of the Board of the Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council.\nAND FURTHERMORE\, the 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 its subsequent recommendation to not support this application as presented on October 14\, 2020.\nItem No. (9) WHIP Committee – Heath Kline\, Chair\n(20-066) Resolution related to Budget Advocates and Congress of Neighborhoods\nDiscussion and possible action:\nHonorable Mayor Garcetti\nWHEREAS\, this past September\, the City created a Fiscal Restraint policy mandating all City Departments to propose reducing their budgets by 3% across all spending sources for the Fiscal Year 2020-2021. For the budget of the Department of Neighborhood Empowerment (DONE)\, that department head complied and tried to make reductions that would have the least detrimental impacts on several of the Neighborhood Council system’s critical support services\, and programs.\nWHEREAS\, DONE has proposed a new budget that is reduced by $84\,000 which impacts several services and programs that provide Neighborhood Councils across the City with the means to assist us to better serve each of our respective areas. Among those groups are the Neighborhood Council Budget Advocates and the Congress of Neighborhoods.\nWHEREAS\, we recognize that the Los Angeles City Budget is becoming severely unbalanced; and\,\nWHEREAS\, the City is looking for ways to find money to balance its budget; and\,\nWHEREAS\, funds for organizations such as the NC Budget Advocates and activities such as the Congress of Neighborhoods provide critical support for the activities and functions of both Neighborhood Councils and City Departments and Agencies; and\,\nWHEREAS\, unspent funds allocated to these valuable groups may be in jeopardy of being taken back by the City; and\,\nWHEREAS\, the City has already reduced the funding of Neighborhood Councils for 2020-2021; and\,\nWHEREAS\, the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council does not believe Neighborhood Council and support groups like NC Budget Advocates and Congress of Neighborhoods funding should be reduced more than has already been done;\nTherefore\, while we recognize that the City faces a massive budget due to the continuing Covoid-19 pandemic\, and we understand that every City department will have to trim their expenditures\, we request that the reduced financial appropriations to these two DONE programs be limited to what has already been proposed by the department head\, and that funding for the rest of the year not be reduced to any more than has already been done.\nTherefore\, the Woodland Hills Issues and Policies (WHIP) Committee recommends that the Board of the Woodland – Hills Warner Center Neighborhood Council take stand to oppose any further City efforts to take funds that Neighborhood Councils have dedicated to these types of supporting entities.\nFURTHERMORE\, the Council Board should make the City Council and the Mayor aware of its opposition to taking those funds through letters to each Councilmember\, the Mayor\, Empower LA plus the City Clerk and Controller.\nItem No. (10 ) Sheppard Kaufman\, Vice President\n(20-067) Committee Roster\nDiscussion and possible action:\nMotion for the board to approve the WHWCNC Committee Roster for fiscal year 2020-2021.\nSee attached committee roster ROLL CALL VOTE\nItem No. (11) Community Services Committee – Joyce Fletcher\, Chair\n(20-068) Resolution related to Illegal Fireworks\nDiscussion and possible action:\nTo: Councilmember Bob Blumemfield\nRe: Illegal Fireworks in Los Angeles\nThe Woodland Hills-Warner Center Neighborhood Council SUPPORTS enforcement of the illegal firework ordinance.\nFor fireworks\, under California Health and Safety Code Fireworks penalty\, Section 127000 states “Any person who violates any provisions of the State Fireworks laws or Regulations is guilty of a misdemeanor.\nA misdemeanor is punishable by a fine of not less than $500\, but not to exceed $1\,000 by imprisonment in the county jail for up to one year\, or both”.\nFor dangerous fireworks\, Under the California Health and Safety Code Fireworks Penalties\, Section 12700(b)\, a person in the possession of unaltered dangerous fireworks is in violation of the State Fireworks Law is punishable as a misdemeanor or a public offense with fines ranging from $500 to more than $50\,000\, depending on the gross weight of unaltered dangerous fireworks in possession.\nLocally\, all fireworks are illegal in the City of Los Angeles\, SEC. 57.55.01 (A) Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC).
