It appears that the Department is understaffed and lacks skilled managerial leadership\, and these shortcomings led to a profound breach of moral and fiduciary duty. \nIt is unfathomable how neither the Personnel Audits and Animal Welfare Committee (PAAW) nor the Mayor-appointed Board of Animal Services Commissioners gave any public indication of these problems. Instead\, they left it to a newspaper exposé [link to LAT] and volunteers’ honest\, heartbreaking words [link to ABC7] to make these conditions known to the broader public. \nNews media outlets have documented these conditions before\, including occupied animal living quarters overrun by rats [link to Newsweek] and flooding shelters [link to CF 19-1584]. \nNecessary actions must be taken to quickly and efficiently process into the system the many people who have applied to be volunteers\, including\, as necessary\, clerical staff being transferred to the Department to process backlogged applications. The City shelters’ substantial volunteer corps\, without which the shelters could not operate\, must be treated with the respect they deserve and given a formal seat at the table in current and future decision-making for the shelters and their procedures and operation. One option worth considering is the formation of a volunteers’ “Animal Services Advisory Committee\,” with representatives elected by the volunteers from each of the City’s shelters. \nVolunteers suspended or terminated for speaking to the media\, after bringing their concerns first to Department of Animal Services management and the Board of Animal Services Commissioners only to be ignored\, must be immediately reinstated. Terminating highly skilled volunteers who run shelter programs such as dog playgroups\, train other volunteers\, and walk the more challenging dogs further harms animals in the shelters. Retaliation against employee whistleblowers is illegal\, and reprisals against volunteers are equally wrong and erode trust in our City’s governance structures. Should the City be able to terminate a volunteer for engaging in good faith criticism of the City? Good governance depends upon the willingness of constituents to speak out without fear of retaliation. \nA complete and comprehensive audit should be undertaken by the City Controller of the Department of Animal Services\, including its volunteer program\, to analyze the Department’s needs\, budget\, staffing structure and numbers\, and the effectiveness of its expenditures. \nAdditionally\, the exorbitant $1.5 million contract with the marketing firm The Glue LLC should be immediately examined\, and the nature\, circumstances\, and expenditure on this contract should be investigated by the Controller for fraud\, waste\, and abuse.  The contract is currently delinquent\, and its costs are much higher than industry standards. This should include a review \nof the change in the terms of use [link to Ordinance 185617] of the Animal Welfare Trust Fund instituted in 2018\, which was approved by both the Animal Services Commission and the PAAW Committee. In FY 2021-2022\, 63% of all expenditures from the donor-funded Animal Welfare Trust Fund went to the Glue marketing contract (for services that have yet to be delivered) rather than the care of animals. Animal care is why people donate to and the purpose of this trust. \nContrary to the motion [link to CF 22-0943] introduced by Councilmember Koretz\, this is not simply a crisis of budgetary resources; it is a crisis of dubious priorities\, inept management\, and derelict and negligent oversight. For example\, the City has never adequately funded or enforced its spay and neuter policies\, which has directly contributed to the current overcrowding. Alongside these management issues\, however\, it is true that the City has chronically underfunded the Department of Animal Services and must henceforth budget appropriately for the needs of the animals. There is a clear need for the Department to have permanent independent\, neutral oversight\, such as from an ombudsman to whom issues of concern could be directed. This is especially the case given the Department’s substantial skilled Volunteer workforce. Often\, they are the first to recognize needed changes and need a communication channel free of retribution. \nThe Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council strongly condemns the suspension or termination of Volunteers for speaking with the press or with Animal Services Department Management or Oversight Board about conditions in the City Animal Shelters or exercising their First Amendment rights. These suspensions and terminations should be investigated\, and all the Volunteers terminated for these reasons should be reinstated immediately. \nThe shelter system’s animals\, volunteers\, employees\, and taxpayers deserve the humane and ethical treatment that a better-run department would provide. The responsibility for delivering it falls to you and your appointees. \nThe WHWCNC will so inform the Board of Animal Services\, Department of Animal Services GM\, the Mayor\, Members of the Los Angeles City Council\, staff of the City Council\, Personnel Audits and Animal Welfare Committee (PAAW)\, LA City Council Member Bob Blumenfield’s staff. \nRoll Call Vote \nItem No. (6) Woodland Hills Issues & Policy Committee [WHIP] – Heath Kline\, Chair \n(22-090) Community Impact Statement RE: LADWP Ratepayer Impacts of LA100 Proposal \n& Necessary Public Outreach \n  \nDiscussion and possible action:                                                                     (10 minutes) \n  \nThe Woodland Hills Issues and Policies Committee recommends that the Board of the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council adopt the following motion: \nThe Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council [WHWCNC] supports the Water and Power Associates letter of June 20\, 2022 [letter link]\, to the LA Department of Water & Power [LADWP] Board of Commissioners. \nThe WHWCNC strongly believes that all future rate increases projected under the LA100 Strategic Long-Term Resource Plan [presentation link]\, or come about because of\, for example\, but not limited to projected increases from increased use of water from the Metropolitan Water District [MWD] and their upstream providers and surcharges that these providers may be imposing on LADWP be communicated to its customers through the use of charts like those contained at the end of the Water and Power Associates letter [bottom of page 2] \nLADWP should expand its projected rate increase charts for water and electricity to show the projected rate increases for both Zone 1 and Zone 2 (high temperature-consumption allotment areas of the San Fernando Valley & East LA) [map link]\, ratepayers. Additionally\, LADWP charts should show customers under rate plans such as “Time of Use” or have dedicated meters-billing plans for EV charging or meters for outdoor water use. Charts should be available for any new rate plans offered. \nThe LADWP should maintain prominently on its website updates to the rate charts that show projected versus actual rate increases for the past five years. Projected versus actual billed rates should be explained. This information will allow customers to see trends and gauge for themselves the accuracy of LADWP rate projections and the reliance they should put on them. \nFurthermore\, the WHWCNC asks that the LADWP widely disseminate these updated tables showing projected rate increases in advance of future rate increases. LADWP should use billing inserts\, NC outreach\, email\, and text alerts\, social media\, and print and broadcast media campaigns in sufficient time for the public to provide input before rate increases take effect. Most importantly\, customers will be able to respond intelligently to the signals LADWP and the marketplace is sending them about their resource consumption\, savings\, and generation opportunities. \nThe WHWCNC will so inform the LADWP Board of Commissioners\, DWP Management\, the LADWP Rate Payer Advocate\, the Mayor\, the LA City Council Energy\, Climate Change\, Environmental Justice and River Committee\, LA City Council Member Bob Blumenfield\, and staffs of these bodies. \nRoll Call Vote \n  \n  \n  \n  \nItem No (7) Woodland Hills Issues & Policy Committee [WHIP] – Heath Kline\, Chair \n(22-091) Taxpayer Funded Northeast Valley Animal Shelter RFP To Operate As a Private Rescue Organization Facility \n  \nDiscussion & Possible Action:                                                                       (10 minutes) \nWHEREAS\, The Northeast Valley Animal Shelter is a City facility built with Proposition F funds to be a municipal animal shelter\, open to the public.  It was not meant to be a private facility to house rescue organizations.  Nevertheless\, the Board of Animal Services Commissioners has issued an Request for Proposal [RFP] to do just that\, lease the Northeast Valley Animal Shelter to rescue organizations to operate; and\, \n  \nWHEREAS\, The Board of Animal Services Commissioners and Animal Services Department did not provide an opportunity for the affected Stakeholders and Neighborhood Councils [NCs] to provide input into this decision\, the Department of Animal Services and City Council should receive input from the affected Stakeholders and NCs before releasing the RFP for rescue organizations to operate the Northeast Valley Animal Shelter; and\, \nWHEREAS\, The Request for Proposal RFP was released without input from the affected Stakeholders and NCs; and\, \nWHEREAS\, the City Council introduced a resolution (Council File 22-0897\, Koretz and Blumenfield) to amend the City Charter to require that the commission associated with any department contemplating the issuance of an RFP hold a public hearing or the department hold a public meeting\, to provide members of the public an opportunity to offer relevant ideas for consideration by the department prior to the drafting of the RFP; and\, \nWHEREAS\, the Animal Services Commission doesn’t appear to be doing anything to stop the RFP for the Northeast Valley Shelter; \nTHEREFORE\, the Woodland Hills Issues and Policies Committee recommends that the Woodland Hills – Warner Center Neighborhood Council RESOLVE\, that the Board believes the Northeast Valley Animal Shelter should be a full-service municipal animal shelter as contemplated by Proposition F and that no action should be taken on the RFP until it is determined if this can be done. \nThe WHWCNC will so inform the Board of Animal Services\, Department of Animal Services GM\, the Mayor\, Members of the Los Angeles City Council\, staff of the City Council\, Personnel Audits and Animal Welfare Committee (PAAW)\, LA City Council Member Bob Blumenfield’s staff. \nRoll Call Vote \n  \n\n Area Reports – (10 minutes) \n\n  \nArea 1 – Aaron Quantz\, Karen DiBiase\, Mark Schwartz\, Reina Cerros-McCaughey \nArea 2 – Arturo Velasquez\, Paul Lawler\, Sean McCarthy\, Kathleen Barth\nArea 3 – John Sandy Campbell \nArea 4 – Martin Lipkin\, Dena Weiss\, Don Patterson\, Rachel Tabak \nArea 5 – Vacant\nArea 6 – Leslie Simon\, Mihran Kalaydjian\, Heath Kline \nArea 7 – Joyce Fletcher\, Houtan Hormozian\nAt-Large – Kathleen Barth\nYouth Member – Talia Isaacs \n  \n\n Committee Reports – (10 minutes) \n\n  \nBudget Committee – Paul Lawler\, Chair \nCommunity Services and Public Safety Committee – Dena Weiss\, Chair\nEducation Committee – Mihran Kalaydjian\, Chair\nEnvironmental & Beautification Committee – Karen DiBiase\, Chair \nGovernance Committee – Joyce Fletcher\, Chair \nPublic Health and Homelessness Committee – Aaron Quantz\, Chair\nPLUM Committee – Don Patterson\, Chair\nSocial Media & Community Outreach Committee – Chair\, TBD\nWHIP Committee – Heath Kline\, Chair \nAd-hoc Committee – Flight Path and Noise Advisory Committee – Martin Lipkin\, Chair \n  \nAnnouncements: \nThe next Regular Board meeting will be held on October 12\, 2022\, by teleconference.
