driving.  The WHWC NC provides the following summary of the results as  well as the attached comprehensive list of input (with individual emails redacted) for your review. \nPARTIAL SUMMARY \nResponses: 218 \n\n88% of the respondents were residents of Woodland Hills.\nA majority of respondents agreed that issues of unsafe driving\, excessive speed\, dangers to pedestrians & cyclists are growing problems and that there is a need for additional enforcement.\n83% agreed (67% strongly/16% somewhat) increased penalties for repeat offenders and there was broad support that additional traffic officers were needed to solve the problem.\n55% of respondents agreed (somewhat to strongly) that they would support a test program of ASE    on roadways known to have significant reckless driving activity.  32% of respondents would not support (somewhat to strongly) ASE.\nThe majority generally supported all of the potential solutions polled.  Additionally\, respondents provided specific ideas and requests regarding this issue.\n\ncc: LAPD Topanga\, LAPD Valley Traffic\, Julia Thayne (Office of the Mayor)                                              See posted support documents. \n  \nItem No. (26) WHIP Committee – Heath Kline\, Chair \n(21-026) WHWCNC CIS related to Council File CF-21-0002-S18 \nOpposition to SB 9 \n  \nDiscussion and Possible action:                                                                                 (15 minutes) \n  \nA recommendation from the WHIP Committee for a Board Resolution in support of City Opposition  to SB 9 in Council File CF-21-0002-S18. \n  \nWHEREAS\, SB9 requires cities (including Charter) and counties to provide for ministerial (by-right) approval of duplexes and a parcel map dividing a lot into two parcels \n  \nWHEREAS\, SB 9 imposes and facilitates “lot splitting\,” i.e.\, the subdivision of a parcel or parcels into additional buildable lots and removes the administrative and environmental reviews that currently apply       to such process. \nWHEREAS\, SB9 provides for the ministerial (“by right”) approval of duplex (two residential units) construction and prohibits a local agency from requiring dedication of rights-of-way or offsite or onsite improvements for parcels created by a lot split. \nWHEREAS\, current R-1 zones have a minimum lot size of 5\,000 square feet which can be divided into   2500 square foot lots and then again divided into 1\,250 square foot lots\, thereby quadrupling density    without CEQA review; and\, \nWHEREAS\, SB 9 prohibits objective standards that would effectively limit the splitting of parcels; and \nWHEREAS\, in a city like Los Angeles\, that already suffers from too little open space and tree canopy to mitigate climate change\, the added development will only exacerbate those problems for mitigation; and\, \nWHEREAS\, if passed\, SB 9 will cause poorly planned housing development that will materially increase density\, without creating the essential new infrastructure that the helter-skelter added density will require      to sustain itself; and\, \nWHEREAS\, SB 9 claims the statewide shortage of affordable housing as justification for its actions; and\, \nWHEREAS\, there is no evidence that the unmanaged increased density will help alleviate our city’s    problem of insufficient affordable housing; and\, \nWHEREAS\, the state’s housing industry cannot construct enough housing for various reasons to fill the housing gap and match growth such that market forces can never drive down prices with surpluses; \nNOW\, THEREFORE\, BE IT RESOLVED\, the Board of the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council support a Resolution of the Los Angeles City Council to include in its 2021 -2022 State Legislative Program OPPOSITION to Senate Bill 9 authored by Senator Atkins\, which seeks to require cities and counties\, including charter cities such as Los Angeles\, to provide ministerial (“by right”) approval of a housing development containing two residential units (a duplex)\, and a parcel map dividing a lot into two equal parts (“lot split”)\, for residential use; and exempts environmental review; and would approve these projects without discretionary review\, or a public hearing; thereby imposing bad planning and the undermining of local land use control and the concept of “Home Rule.” \nItem No. (27) Community Services Committee – Joyce Fletcher\, Chair \n(21-027) WHWCNC CIS related to Stop the Closure of the West Valley Animal Shelter \nCouncil File 20-1114 – COVID-19 / West Valley Animal Shelter / Long Term Plan \n  \nDiscussion and Possible action:                                                                                 (15 minutes) \n  \nMotion for the board to support the draft motion submitted by Councilmember Lee and Councilmember Blumenfield to stop the proposed closure of the West Valley Animal Shelter as a municipal shelter. The \nWest Valley Animal Shelter must continue to be a fully functioning municipal animal shelter that \nprovides much needed services to the residents and animals of the West Valley. \n  \nWhereas the Los Angeles Animal Services (LAAS) Department’s draft Proposal dated June 26\, 2020 to \nturn the West Valley Animal Shelter into a privately run Community Resource Center would result in significant loss of City services for the people and animals of the West San Fernando Valley; and \n  \nWhereas it would result in overburdening the only other city animal shelter in the Valley\, the East Valley Animal Shelter; and \n  \nWhereas it would be inequitable because the entire burden of the LAAS budget cut is being visited on one area of the City\, the West Valley; \n  \nand is overwhelmingly opposed by the residents of the West Valley and Los Angeles; and \n  \nWhereas the citizens of the West Valley and Los Angeles have provided extensive taxpayer money to maintain the West Valley Animal Shelter and there are alternatives to the draft Proposal that would maintain the West Valley Shelter as a fully functioning municipal animal shelter; \n  \nTherefore\, the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council strongly opposes the LAAS draft Proposal for the West Valley Animal Shelter. Further\, the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council Board supports the position of the Valley Alliance of Neighborhood Councils (VANC) and the residents of the West Valley in demanding that the West Valley Shelter remain open as a municipal shelter. \nSee posted support documents. \n  \n\n Area Reports – (15 minutes)\n\n  \nArea 1 – Aaron Quantz\, Karen DiBiase\, Komalpreet Kaur Batth\, Mark Schwartz \nArea 2 – Brian Drapkin\, Paul Lawler\, Sean McCarthy\, Ray Cole \nArea 3 – Nancy McLean\, Angela Dawson\, John Sandy Campbell\, Alex Farassati \nArea 4 – Don Patterson\, Martin Lipkin\, Dena Weiss \nArea 5 – Peter Fletcher\, Austin Rocker \nArea 6 – Gilbert Yablon\, Heath Kline\, Lauren Coffman\, August Steurer \nArea 7 – Ginny Sand\, Joyce Fletcher\, Houtan Hormozian \nAt-Large – Sheppard Kaufman \nYouth Member – Vacant \n  \n\n Committee Reports (15 minutes)\n\n  \nBudget Committee – Paul Lawler and Joyce Fletcher\, Co-Chairs \nCommunity Services Committee – Joyce Fletcher\, Chair \nEducation Committee – Vacant \nEnvironmental & Beautification Committee – Karen DiBiase\, Chair \nGovernance Committee – Don Patterson\, Chair \nHomelessness Committee – Ray Cole\, Chair \nPLUM Committee – Lauren Coffman\, Chair \nPublic Safety and Transportation Committee – Sheppard Kaufman\, Chair \nTechnology & Social Engagement (formerly Community Outreach) Committee – Peter Fletcher\, Chair \nWHIP Committee – Heath Kline\, Chair \nAd-hoc – Westfield Promenade 2035 Project – Joyce Fletcher \nAd Hoc Committee – Measure A.
