I
K
Afternoon,
everyone,
my
name,
is
viktoria
Preciado
I
am
a
homeowner
and
Ingold
I'm.
Also
a
teacher
at
anima
lingua
charter,
high
school
and
I'm
here
to
talk
about
what's
going
on
with
rent
and
displacement
of
people
of
Englewood
I
want
to
give
you
a
little
insight
into
what
my
job
has
turned
into
the
last
couple
years
after
the
stadium
was
announced.
K
K
K
Miss
did
you
hear
so-and-so
spent
the
holidays
in
his
car
because
his
family
got
evicted
and
couldn't
find
a
plate,
a
place
that
they
could
afford
and,
more
recently
miss
remember.
We
were
evicted
a
year
ago.
Well,
the
new
place
we
found
down
the
street
from
Englewood
high
raised
our
rent
4.5%,
now
I'm
picking
up
extra
night
shifts
at
Subway.
K
K
These
students
are
Jamaican
immigrants,
Mexican
immigrants,
Central
American
immigrants
and
long-term
black
and
Latino
residents
of
this
city.
A
percent
is
way
too
high
because
these
people
already
make
low
wages
and
can
barely
afford
the
rents
as
they
are.
They
don't
get
raised
this
I,
don't
even
think
you
all
give
your
employees
8%
raises
just
to
keep
up
with
the
rent.
So
8%
is
just
way
too
high.
It's
unacceptable
I've
been
coming
here
for
the
last
at
least
two
years
had
conversations
with
Alex
Padilla
over
two
years.
I
mean
nothing
has
been
done.
K
K
K
Ask
you
to
do
what
try
and
represent
the
majority
of
people
of
ingred,
because
that
is
not
what
has
been
happening.
We
have
come
here
for
way
too
long
asking
for
a
solution
and
I'm
here
to
let
you
know
that
eight
percent
is
not
a
solution
to
the
problem
when
people
can't
even
afford
to
live
the
way
they're
living
right
now.
So
please
do
the
right
thing.
K
I
M
She
said
it
all,
but
I'll
try
my
piece
also
I'm
Kathy
Debbie
I'm,
a
member
of
the
holy
faith.
Episcopal
Church
here
in
Inglewood,
have
been
since
2006
I'm,
also
on
the
board
of
9
to
5
National
Association
of
working
women
that
serves
the
whole
state
as
well
as
Inglewood
and
I'm.
A
member
of
uplift
coalition,
I'd
like
to
reiterate
our
regret.
Our
request
from
uplift
Inglewood
for
three
amendments
to
the
proposed
ordinance
that
you
make
these
amendments
today
may
be
by
proposing
them
and
voting
for
them
before
you
vote
for
the
ordinance.
M
We
think
also
that
the
rents
of
Inglewood
residents
should
be
reverted
back
to
their
November
2017
level
to
allow
residents
a
chance
at
survival,
and,
finally,
we
think
the
board
that
oversees
ongoing
implementation
of
this
ordinance
should
be
democratically
elected
by
the
Inglewood
residents.
These
amendments
together
have
the
potential
to
truly
protect
our
neighbors
from
homelessness
and
displacement.
M
I
had
one
further
thought
as
I
read
through
the
ordinance
and
that
was
related
to
the
four-plex
units
that
are
under
your
proposal.
Mayor
butts
exempt
from
the
rent
control.
I
was
thinking
about
that
and
thinking
that,
maybe
that's
too
many
units,
and
maybe
if
those
units
were
owner-occupied,
it
might
prevent
those
units
from
being
sold
to
outsiders
or
developers
or
corporate
entities
and
then
for
the
purpose
of
having
units
that
don't
have
rent
control
right.
So
maybe
that's
too
many.
You
might
want
to
look
at
that.
M
N
My
name
is
Julia
Wallace
I'm,
a
writer
for
left
voice,
news
and
I'm
also
part
of
the
recently
organized
Englewood
tenants,
Union
I'm
here
today,
as
I
have
been
for
the
past
several
months
to
speak,
about
the
ordinance
and
about
rent
control.
8%
is
an
incredible
amount
for
people
to
be
able
to
pay,
especially
as
many
of
you
know,
Englewood
residents
tend
to
have
lower
incomes
and
in
places
Lausanne
in
places
in
Los,
Angeles,
City
and
so
raising
being
able
to
raise
the
rent
to
8%
as
an
annual
increase.
N
Most
people
can't
afford
to
do
that
and
by
offering
a
relocation
fee,
as
I
had
said
before,
that
seems
like
a
consolation
prize
to
be
able
to
move
people
out.
People
like
myself
have
lived
in
Englewood
for
decades.
Many
of
us
grew
up
here
and
all
a
lot
of
you
know
that,
but
our
concern,
which
is
why
we
formed
the
tenants
union,
is
that
we
need
to
represent
ourselves
as
tenants,
because
many
of
us
feel
like
we're
not
being
listened
to.
Again
and
again.
We've
said
that
8%
is
too
high.
N
Because
that's
how
we're
going
to
do
it?
That's
how
rent
control
was
established
in
Los
Angeles.
That's
the
only
reason
why
we're
having
this
conversation
now
because
rent
has
been
going
up
for
years,
and
so
it's
so
important
for
people
who
are
standing
up
here
and
the
people
who
are
downstairs
in
the
overflow
to
really
be
represented.
N
You
have
the
opportunity
to
go
against
the
moneyed
interests,
the
power
that
the
powers-that-be
and
other
pressures
to
represent
the
people,
but
I
have
to
say
that
I
feel
very
cynical
about
that,
because
it
seems
like
the
responses
have
been
particularly
from
the
mayor
of
condescending
and
mean,
and
that's
unacceptable
for
a
public
servant
to
do
that.
I
hope
that
people
on
this
dais
will
vote
for
the
interests
of
Inglewood.
Listen
to
the
other
provisions
that
uplift
Inglewood
have
suggested,
including
not
having
to
8
percent
I.
O
But
it's
a
start
and
8%
increases
is
way
too
high,
especially
when
you
have
people
who
aren't
making
enough
money
with
minimum
wage
to
even
pay
their
rent
or
to
make
up
enough
money
to
even
have
food
and
I
feel
like
I've
living
in
San,
Francisco
I've
seen
how
gentrification
has
been
more
advanced
there
than
it
is
here
right
now,
homelessness
in
San
Francisco
is
17%.
The
black
population
used
to
be
70
in
the
70s
used
to
be
14%.
O
O
Local
businesses
that
I've
seen
when
I
was
little
be
completely
closed
down
or
just
have
people
that
I've
grew
up
with
moved
to
the
valley
or
other
places,
because
they
can't
afford
to
live.
Here.
You
have
first-generation
students
who
are
not
only
paying
for
rent
and
wherever
they
are
or
for
food
or
any
anything
that
has
to
do
with
schooling,
but
also
helping
to
support
their
families
back
home.
O
And
it's
a
shame
that
you
again
as
people
are
supposed
to
represent
us,
don't
put
in
that
work
or
put
in
the
effort
to
actually
help
our
community
and,
while
y'all
may
be
under
the
impression
that
whatever
changes
are
happening
here
are
to
better
the
community.
Whatever
changes
are
happening
is
at
the
expense
of
the
people
who
have
been
here
for
years
and
I
just
think.
It's
completely
unacceptable
and
before
I
and
I
just
want
to
add
that
I
would
find
it
more
respectful.
P
My
name
is
miss
Kelly
cliff
and
my
issue
is
housing,
I,
rent
it
in
the
region,
hotel
and,
as
you
know,
the
region
hotel
closed
down.
It's
right
around
the
corner
from
the
courthouse
and
we
never.
We
tenants
never
received
any
moving
fees.
I
never
received
any
funds
for
settlements
for
being
raped
in
asleep
and
radiation,
and
ongoing
theft.
Now
people
will
say,
there's
an
argument
with
theft.
Only
because
my
mother,
libertÃ
cliff,
is
very
much
alive.
P
My
father,
Walter
cliff,
was
murdered
in
the
city
of
Englewood,
so
many
people
in
the
city
of
Englewood
may
say
that
she's
deceased,
that's
for
her
protection,
but
my
mother,
libertÃ
cliff,
is
alive
and
my
issue
is
housing.
Rent
continuously
goes
up
and
we
never
receive
any
our
movement
moving
fees.
My
ongoing
issues
is
I
continuously
have
filed.
Lawsuits
and
I
was
awarded
money
from
the
Washington
DC
Supreme
Court.
P
However,
the
money
was
never
given
to
me
because
I'm
looked
upon
as
somebody
that
you
could
play
with
disability,
Christian
woman
virgin
until
raped
in
the
sleep
at
the
age
43
come
play
with
me,
living
in
Los
Angeles,
so
that
has
not
stopped
in
the
city
of
Inglewood.
Therefore,
it
affects
my
housing
and
crimes
are
consistent.
Crimes
are
continuing
in
the
city
of
Inglewood
and
it
affects
my
housing.
I
also
would
like
to
close
with
the
as
a
Christian
woman.
With
the
book
of
Ezra
chapter
9.
P
Ezzor
I
was
a
priest
subscribed
and
the
abominations.
The
city
of
Inglewood
has
allowed
los
angeles.
The
county,
the
los
angeles
los
angeles
county,
has
joined
in
with
los
angeles
county
in
crimes,
and
the
city
of
Inglewood
should
have
separated
themselves,
and
you
did
not
do
so
in
the
book
of
Ezra.
You
did
not
separate
yourselves.
The
Raiders
and
Clippers
basketball
team
I
informed
them
that
I'm,
a
victim
of
rape
in
asleep
ma'am.
P
R
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Hazara
and
I'm,
a
member
of
uplift
Englewood
coalition.
The
proposed
rent
stabilization
ordinance
is
needed
more
now
than
ever
and
I'm
glad
to
see
that
the
City
Council
is
taking
this
initiative
forward.
I
would
like
to
request
that
the
ordinance
would
include
a
rental
rollback
to
revert
rinse
that
have
been
gas
rolled
back
to
October
2017
levels.
Englewood
is
a
city
of
over
60%
renters,
who
have
already
been
gouged
in
the
corporate
real
estate
market.
R
Rent
gouging
has
already
been
a
problem,
and
that's
why
uplift
Englewood
Feld
initiative
to
be
put
on
the
ballot.
In
the
past
few
years,
residents
have
seen
the
rates
the
rent
rates
raise
out
of
control,
while
their
incomes
remain
the
same
after
the
lowest
in
LA.
County
renters
should
get
a
second
chance
to
remain
in
their
city.
They
grew
up
here
and
I
like
I,
always
say
they
want
to
enjoy
this.
The
improvements
in
our
in
our
city,
the
Rams,
the
Clippers,
our
improved
school
districts.
They
should
have
an
opportunity.
R
I
understand
that
rents
will
go
up
because
of
all
of
the
wonderful
development
that's
happening
in
our
city,
but
the
level
at
which
they
do
increase
should
be
something
that
families
can
actually
obtain.
It
shouldn't
be
so
unachievable
that
their
only
recourse
is
to
be
relocated,
I
mean
extra
jobs,
whatever
it
should
be
something
obtainable,
and
we
believe
that
a
road
back
to
October
2017
would
achieve
this
purpose.
Thank
you
for
hearing
me.
Thank
you.
Thank.
S
Apartments
aren't
getting
8%
nicer,
and
so
this
huge
increase
in
rent
is
not
being
represented
in
an
improvement
of
quality
of
life
for
the
people
of
Englewood,
and
this
new
stadium
development
is
going
to
be
touted
as
the
solution
to
these
economic
problems.
It'll
somehow
bring
in
economic
investment
and
more
jobs
for
the
people
here.
But
this
is
a
cycle
that's
been
going
on
throughout
this
country.
For
decades,
you
can
look
to
Miami
in
miami-dade
County
that
ended
up
footing.
S
T
Our
tenants
are
very
happy
with
that
rate
and
we
would
like
to
be
able
to
maintain
quality
units
at
affordable
prices,
and
this
is
a
follow-on
from
I
was
at
the
meeting
a
couple
of
months
ago
and
I
sent
letters
to
the
councilman
mm-hmm
regarding
the
benefits
and
challenges
of
a
smaller
personally
owned
apartment
buildings
and
the
future
availability
and
quality
of
affordable
housing.
I
think
that
mom
and
pops
are
a
mainstay
of
that,
but
they're
threatened
the
benefits.
T
They
can
do
mom
and
pops
can
provide
affordable
housing
by
having
lower
overhead
and
better
personal
management.
The
newbie
mom
and
pops
owners
rarely
make
a
profit
for
several
years
after
purchase
because
the
high
debt
to
income
ratio,
it's
not
an
easy
game.
These
are
risky
investments
and
the
failure
rates,
like
any
other
small
business,
are
high
housing
protection
initiative
of
a
4%
rep
race
is
untenable
for
newly
acquired
poverty's
that
are
in
any
kind
of
stress
condition,
as
is
common.
This
is
precarious
and
not
conducive
for
the
survival
of
mom
and
pops.
T
If
they
fail,
future
renters
will
be
suffering
from
the
lack
of
affordable
housing
in
spite
of
or
because
of
the
initiative.
I
have
a
Pandora's
box.
If
the
mom
and
pops
are
forced
out
by
either
a
profit
squeeze
to
the
burden
of
rent
control,
and/or
inflation
makes
maintenance,
cost
exceeds
rinse
or
the
prices
are
driven
down
enough
by
real
estate
recession
to
accelerate
bank
foreclosures.
Then
the
banks
repossessed
sell
their
properties
as
Lucian
ambassadors,
re,
REI,
T's,
large
speculators
and
affordable
housing
goes
out
the
window.
T
U
T
The
recommendation
is
that
the
city
should
finance
a
study,
keeping
a
log
of
historical
public
records
of
all
sales,
foreclosures
loans
and
public
actions
or
other
public
data,
as
may
be
valuable
to
assess
the
effectiveness
of
the
new
rent
control
ordinance
on
the
availability
of
a
forged,
affordable
housing,
as
well
as
the
success
failure
rate
of
mom
and
pops
and
their
effect
on
the
total
number
of
affordable
units
available
over
time.
It's
called
feedback,
not
academics
or
hearsay,
and
if
the
mom
and
pops
goal
okay.
A
N
Hi,
my
name
is
Tiffany
Wallace
and
I'm,
a
longtime
resident
of
Englewood
and
I'd
like
to
speak
to
some
of
the
things
that
the
gentleman
actually
just
addressed,
or
the
last
speaker
just
spoke
on,
which
is
the
mom-and-pop
landlords
were
here
and
I.
Just
think
that
people
who
are
tenants
who
are
trying
to
who
are
facing
homelessness
based
on
rents,
landlords
shouldn't
be
going
to
them
to
be
making
a
profit
or
making
their
business.
N
N
Even
four
percent
is
too
high,
because
Englewood
residents
make
less
money
than
Los
Angeles
County
residents,
we're
a
poor
community
historically
and
we're
moving
towards
new
development
and
new
construction,
and
that
can
be
really
amazing
for
some
people.
But
we
have
to
ensure
and
write
and
construct
in
our
laws
that
it
actually
is
going
to
be
supportive
for
the
working
people
here,
and
that
doesn't
just
mean
people
for
myself
who
have
been
here.
As
I've
said
before
many
times
that
I've
been
here
during
the
crack
years
during
extreme
bouts
of
violence.
N
We
lived
and
survived
through
that
through
my
and
many
other
people's
childhood
and
adulthood,
and
not
just
for
those
folks
but
for
the
immigrants
and
other
people
who
come
to
our
city
to
live
working.
Families
should
also
be
able
to
afford
to
live
in
our
community
and
not
have
to
make
those
same
kind
of
sacrifices,
and
we
have
the
availability
and
the
ability
to
do
that.
N
It's
quite
a
shame
that
it
seems
like
it's
going
to
be
either
this
one
person
who's,
making
a
little
bit
more
money
or
this
other
person
who's,
making
significantly
less
money
who's
facing
homelessness.
Our
initiative,
the
Emir's
initiative,
also
needs
to
include
people
who
have
been
displaced
into
the
motels
and
the
hotels
and
the
ends.
N
We
have
to
make
sure
that
all
of
our
residents
are
being
covered
and
that's
why
not
only
do
I
support
rent
control
but
also
affordable

that
is
available

affordable

the

Thank
you.
Thank.
I
V
V
Considering
the
explosive
growth
we
have
in
the
city
of
Ingold,
everything
that
the
mayor,
joyfully
announces
in
his
speech
is
about
all
the
good
things
that
are
happening.
This
is
a
of
Inglewood
with
all
the
dry
up
investment
coming
to
the
city,
because
investors
would
take
cover,
because
the
city
has
all
of
a
sudden,
become
an
investment
opals
City
on
an
ongoing
and
permanent
basis.
We
believe
they
should
not
be
a
cap
on
rent
control.
V
However,
if
a
tenant
refuses
to
agree
to
terms
that
exceed
an
8%
cap,
then
the
relocation
fees
the
heibon
outlined
in
the
ordinary
shoe
continue.
So
all
the
points
in
the
ordinance
that
we
agree
with
include
a
base
cap
not
to
assist
$7,500
yet
evictions
only
on
Just
Cause
basis
and
limits
rent
increases
to
an
annual
basis.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
I
W
Sir
mr.
mayor
members
of
the
council,
my
name
is
rod
right,
I've
been
a
rental
property
owner
in
the
city
of
Inglewood
for
42
years
I.
Like
the
other
gentlemen
I'm,
a
mom-and-pop
operator,
I
ain't
corporate
is
just
me
I'm
on
a
first-name
basis
with
the
people
at
Home.
Depot
I
can
tell
you
what
kind
of
pipe
goes
where
I
can
tell
you.
What
kind
of
plug
goes
where
I
agreed
that
we've
got
to
do
something
to
protect
people
from
escalating
prices.
Mr.
W
W
Proposed,
for
example,
my
small
apartment
investment
under
this
proposal
will
lose
somewhere
near
2
to
$250,000
in
paper
value.
Now,
if
I
don't
sell
or
if
I'm
not
trying
to
borrow
I,
don't
lose
anything
because
I
can
stay
the
same,
but
if
I
needed
cash
or
if
I
were
trying
to
put
together
a
financial
portfolio.
That
means
that
I
just
lost
value
because
I'm
not
able
to
to
get
cost
out
again
in
an
apartment
building
the
way
that
an
apartment
building
is
valued
is
based
on
the
income
of
the
building.
W
It's
not
based
on
how
much
I
own
again
I
can
put
more
money
into
it
as
increasing
down
payments
or
other
kinds
of
things,
but
my
value
is
based
largely
almost
exclusively
on
what
that
building
brings
in.
But
that's,
okay,
because
I'm
not
trying
to
sell
my
building
anyway
again,
I've
had
the
building
for
42
years,
Lord
willing,
I'm,
probably
not
gonna,
live
42
more
and
my
daughter,
who
just
got
an
MBA,
will
manage
it
from
there.
W
I
understand
that
you've
got
to
try
to
create
a
balance
and
nobody
will
like
whatever
it
is
that
you
do.
8%
is
too
high
for
some
people
it's
too
low
for
other
people.
I
think.
The
challenge
that
we
face
is
to
make
sure
that
we
come
out
with
something
that
doesn't
have
one
side
paying
all
of
the
freight,
so
I
think.
If
we
look
forward
there
ought
to
be
some
considerations
again.
If
there's
a
major
repair
that
will
not
be
covered
by
an
8%
rent
increase.
W
There's
got
to
be
some
way
to
leverage
that
in
LA,
if
there's
a
seismic
retrofit
or
other
kind
of
thing,
you
account
for
that
and
you
work
that
out
in
some
fashion.
If
it's
going
to
be
8%,
I
would
like
more
but
again.
If
that's
what
it
is,
then
we'll
live
with
that.
The
challenge
I
think
we
have
is
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
talking
about
a
one-sided
affair
where
all
the
money
comes
out
of
one
side:
I'm,
not
a
corporate
person.
W
I
am
a
single
business
person
who
made
an
investment
in
the
city
of
Inglewood
in
1977.
Yes,
I've
done
well,
but
again
for
the
first
10
years
of
that
investment
I
didn't
do
as
well,
and
there
was
nobody
there
to
say.
Oh
you're,
losing
money,
that's
your
fault,
so
I
would
hope
that
you
would
look
at
that.
Make
adjustments
and
take
into
consideration
those
small
operators.
Who've
made
investments
in
Inglewood
who
you
need
to
continue
making
investments
if
the
city
is
going
to
prosper.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Senator.
I
X
Here
right
now,
as
a
person
that
sees
things
as
they
drive
around
and
when
I
walked
over
here
I
saw
the
Yola
is
being
built
right
here
and
the
other
day
I
was
driving
by
and
there
was
a
gentleman
laying
on
the
sidewalk
right
there
at
Regent
in
LaBrea,
and
it
was
a
young
person
and
he
was
sleeping
with
no
covers
and
I
go
to
the
gym
here.
Planet
Fitness,
so
I
came
back
by
the
next
morning.
X
He
was
still
out
there
and
the
thing
I'm
bringing
up
is
the
fact
that
okay,
you've
got
these
stadiums
coming
up.
You
know:
everything's
gonna,
look
real
nice,
but
what
about?
When
people
drive
around
and
see
the
conditions
in
LA
in
Inglewood
all
around
you
know,
and
that
just
seems
to
be
overlooked.
All
the
way
around
I
was
a
property
owner.
Unfortunately,
I
sold
my
property,
but
I
kept
my
rents,
affordable
I
could
have
asked
for
a
lot
more
money
than
I
did,
but
that
wasn't
the
point.
X
E
Y
I
Y
Yes,
I
thought
it
was.
You
could
speak
on
anything,
but
no
I
just
get
back
to
what
I
was
saying.
You
have
a
heart.
I
know
that
and
I
just
hope.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
all
of
you
will
vote
for
the
rent
control
to
be
much
lower,
then
not
higher
than
a
percent
but
lower
than
8%.
Thank
you
for
allowing
me
to
speak.
Thank.
Z
U
With
people
that
look
like
me,
they
look.
We
look
like
we're
like
the
shangri-la
of
escaping
white
supremacy
in
the
system
in
so
many
different
ways.
Oh
look
at
us.
We
got
these
businesses
we're
doing
so
much
better.
Look
at
how
well
it's
developed!
Well,
guess
what
the
development
has
caused
so
much
ecological
damage.
You
look
at
Vietnam.
Do
you
say
that
it's
sovereign
and
liberated,
but
like
David,
sorry,
David
I'll,
stick
to
the
place
with
the
gentrification
talk
again,
sorry
about
that!
Actually,.
I
U
I
say
yeah,
thank
you
so,
but
yeah
like
I
said
I
do
care
about
the
people
and
this
whole
housing
thing
and
like
with
like
thinking
you
can
own
property.
That
yeah
you
say
you
hate
the
you
know,
don't
hate
the
player
hate
the
game,
Bo,
guess
what
like
the
whole
concept
of
private
private
property,
it's
unsustainable!
It's
like
a
losing
gambling
game
and
that's
speaking
from
a
community
that's
addicted
to
gambling.
I
AA
Good
to
see
you,
mr.
mayor
and
members
of
the
City
Council
again
I
greet
you
and
it's
good
to
be.
Here
I
am
Reverend
dr.
Harold,
Lee
kid
I'm,
the
pastor
of
the
First
Presbyterian
Church
here
in
the
Blessed
city
of
Englewood
I'm,
also
a
member
of
the
uplift
Englewood
coalition
and
the
LA
voice
home
team.
First
of
all,
I
want
I've
lived
here
for
16
years
many
days,
I,
walk
to
church
and
just
in
my
neighborhood
I
have
seen
a
drastic
relocation
of
people
because
they
could
not
afford
the
escalating
rents.
AA
I
am
here
today,
first
of
all
to
thank
you
for
taking
this
step
in
what
we
all
believe
is
the
right
direction
for
Siwan,
one,
that
we
hope
that
the
City
Council
will
vote
on
shortly
after
hearing
our
testimonies.
We
are
here
today,
however,
as
you
take
this
first
step
to
ask
that
you
consider
three
proposed
amendments
to
this
ordinance.
AA
First
of
all,
amendment
number
one
that
a
rent,
Crees
allowance
of
8%
is
too
high.
When
you
look
at
the
CPI
of
the
surrounding
municipalities,
Long
Beach,
Anaheim
and
other
municipalities,
it
averages
between
three
to
four
percent.
I
just
pulled
off
the
most
recent
news
release
from
the
Bureau
of
Labor
Statistics,
and
this
is
dated
May
10th,
and
it
gives
these
this
information
8%
would
become
a
burden
for
the
majority
of
persons
who
rent
here
in
Inglewood.
AA
To
give
everyone
a
base
start
once
this
new
ordinance
is
put
into
place,
amendment
number
three
elect
a
rent
board
that
represents
the
members
of
the
City
Council,
but
also
citizens
of
this
municipality
that
we
work
in
partnership
together
to
see
that
going
forward.
The
implementation
of
the
rent
stabilization
ordinance
is
democratically
elected
by
the
citizens
of
this
community.
Thank
you
again.
We
are
moving
in
the
right
direction,
but
let's
push
the
envelope.
There
are
some
further
steps.
We
can
take
to
really
make
this
equitable
for
everyone
who
lives
in
the
city
of
Inglewood.
I
AA
H
D
D
Like
a
hundred
percent
and
I
said
well,
I
can't
afford
that
so
I
read
the
law
or
the
more
term
that
you
signed
and
I
said
well.
Okay,
I
can
somewhat
handle
that
for
a
little
while,
but
they
held
on
to
my
rent
check
for
over
a
month,
and
so
this
month
I
decided
to
just
give
them
a
cashier's
check,
because
I
couldn't
have
that
much
rent
just
floating
around.
D
That
I
didn't
feel
was
fair
because
they've
gone
up
like
I
said
over
a
hundred
percent
in
the
last
I
I
didn't
do
all
of
the
math,
but
it's
ridiculous.
So
this
time
last
year
was
paying
1550
January
I
was
expected
to
pay
1750
March
I
was
expected
to
pay
1875
and
for
May
and
June
I
was
expected
to
pay
2,000
without
paying
for
the
parking
that
was
going
to
be
additional.
D
No
one
in
my
building
can
afford
that
and
there's
no
regulation
of
this
or
what
do
you
call
it
non
regulation,
but
monitoring
of
this
owner
they've
just
gone
bonkers
and
who
knows
what
what
July
and
August
will
will
bring
us?
You
know,
that's
all
I
wanted
to
say:
I,
don't
know
all
of
the
different
factors
that
are
involved.
I
would
be
gladly
willing
to
say,
go
back
to
eight
8%,
because
it's
gone
way
past
that
you
know
but
I'm,
one
of
the
few
that
maybe
be
able
to
afford
a
percent.
Thank
you
for
listening.
D
I
D
I
I
AC
Hello:
everyone,
my
name,
is
Giovanni
Hendrix
I'm
with
the
uplift
Englewood
coalition
organizer,
first
and
foremost,
I
do
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
city
and
the
mayor
for
taking
the
right,
taking
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
Although
I
don't
agree
with
everything
in
the
ordinance,
it
will
stabilize
some
residents
in
the
city,
some
tenants
in
the
city,
but
I
want
to
touch
on
some
of
the
things
that
Pastor
Kay
talked
about.
He
mentioned
three
amendments
and
I
want
to
focus
on
one
of
those
amendments
which
is
an
elective
renters
board.
AC
AC
You
need
a
renters
elected
board,
because
Inglewood
is
a
large
city
with
a
significant
number
of
renter's.
There
should
be
a
body
of
elected
officials,
focus
solely
on
tenant
issues,
so
that
the
other
elected
officials
can
focus
on
the
business
of
the
city
and
make
sure
that
the
rent
control
ordinance
is
implemented
properly.
This
also
allows
Englewood
residents
to
have
a
democratic
representation
on
one
of
the
issues
that
has
the
most
profound
impact
on
their
daily
lives,
which
is
housing
so
I
am
asking.
I
I
AC
Z
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Chris
Estrada
and
I'm,
the
director
of
community
organizing
at
the
LA
Center
for
community
law
in
action
for
a
nonprofit
that
organizes
tenants
and
gives
them
legal
representation
across
LA
County,
including
an
Inglewood
we're
looking
at
an
unprecedented
housing
and
homelessness
crisis.
For
one
reason,
we've
prioritized
housing
as
business
or
as
investment
for
too
long
we've
ignored
its
function
as
home.
Z
The
proposed
ordinance
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction,
but
as
written
it's
too
weak
to
be
of
much
use,
it
needs
a
few
key
changes.
First,
an
8%
cap
is
far
too
high
to
be
useful,
I'm
sure
you're,
familiar
with
the
statistic
that
every
5%
increase
in
rents
leads
to
another
2000
people
being
homeless
in
LA
County.
Given
the
recent
homelessness
count
numbers,
how
is
a
8%,
even
conscionable
at
8%
rents
would
double
every
nine
years.
I
guarantee
income
does
not
double
every
nine
years.
Z
Second,
we
need
as
many
tenants
as
possible
to
be
covered.
Working-Class
tenants
live
in
all
kinds
of
properties
and
with
all
kinds
of
landlords,
whether
fewer
or
greater
than
five
units.
Everyone
deserves
a
home
and
rent
control
helps
make
that
a
reality.
Third,
no
tenant
should
fear
being
evicted
without
having
done
anything
wrong.
You
should
make
just
cause
eviction
protections.
A
universal
right
finally,
tenet
to
get
no-fault
evictions
under
the
Ellis
act
or
owner
move
in
should
should
get
relocation
assistance
so
that
they
don't
end
up
living
on
the
streets.
Z
Only
if
you
make
these
changes,
can
you
help
help
keep
families
home
instead
of
the
rising
tide
of
homelessness
in
this
county
and
in
the
city
you're,
not
blind,
you
can
see
how
full
this
room
is.
You
can
see
that
the
overflow
room
is
standing
room
only.
You
can
see
that
there's
over
a
hundred
people
watching
the
livestream
of
this
online,
your
constituents
are
watching
you
get
to
decide
whether
they
watch
you
support
them
or
betray
them.
Thank
you.
Thank.
I
I
AD
That
is
why
we
need
our
rent,
our
ordinance,
to
include
a
rent
roll
back
to
the
rates
charged
in
October
of
2017.
When
uplift
Englewood
first
filed
our
rent
stabilization
charter
amendment,
it
may
be
too
late
for
some
who
are
already
living
on
the
streets,
but
we
can
take
this
step
and
prevent
many
others
from
following
on
that
path.
I
hope
that
you
will
consider
a
rent,
roll
back
and
allow
Englewood
residents
a
second
chance
at
survival.

Greetings:
everyone
I'm
Morris,
Griffin,
better
known
as
big
money,
Griff,
strong
community
activists,
leader
and
problem
solver
homelessness
in
California
is
atrocious
and
they
go
hand
in
hand
when
we
talk
about
rent
control,
Inglewood
voter
charter
amendment
is
the
solution.
I'll
say
that
again,
Inglewood
voter
charter
amendment
is
the
solution.
Dr.
E
Every
year
bottom
line
we
have
to
have
a
charter
amendment,
it's
just
that
simple
and
I
would
like
to
say
that
we
set
up
here
and
watched
New
York
get
regen
to
fight
up
out
of
here
by
their
leaders
in
Harlem
and
I.
Don't
want
you
to
blame
the
mayor
in
the
city
council
because
it
comes
down
to
us
when
it
comes
to
voting
when
I
say
us.
I
mean
those
of
us
here
in
Inglewood
to
show
that,
as
we
live
in
the
city
of
Champions,
that
we
don't
rescue.
AE
An
afternoon
mr.

sacred

I'm
Ted

city
of
Englewood,
I,
look
back
when
I
started
my
business
in
real
estate
1977
when
Englewood
was
the
place
to
pass
through
and
folk
that
came
in
to
do
business
were,
was
we
had
to
coerce
them
in
in
terms
of
do
it
and
I
applaud
the
things
you've
done
in
terms
of
and
I
want
to
continue
to
applaud
and
support
you
in
doing
that.
The
real
issue
here
is
housing
or
lack
thereof.
AE
Housing
is
a
national
crisis,
so
it
doesn't
start,
and
it
won't
end
here
either
the
notion
of
trying
to
make
some
adjustments.
I
applaud
the
rent,
control
initiative
and
I
was
here
back
when
it
was
a
moratorium
and
folks
that,
in
my
genre,
were
that
a
pro
housing
was
saying,
wait
a
minute,
that's
gonna
cut
or
do
some
damage
to
our
business
and
I
say
yes
in
terms
of
doing
that,
but
I
think
it
is
something
that
had
to
be
done
and
I
applaud
you
and
being
proactive
in
terms
of
actually
doing
it.
AE
I
support
it.
I
think
that
you're
making
moderate
adjustments
in
terms
of
doing
it
because
they're
those
of
us
and
a
number
of
my
clients
who
were
great
in
terms
of
keeping
their
rents
very
reasonable
and
some
to
the
point
of
that
felt
in
terms
of
value
so
and
they
should
not
be
or
we
should
not
be
penalized
from
that
perspective
in
terms
of
doing
it.
So
the
8%
that
built-in
closets
that
you're
doing
with
a
control
board
I
think
that's
fantastic
in
terms
of
doing
that.
AE
Sting
of
a
cross-section
here
are
the
60%
renters
I
think
that
it
needs
to
be
some
equality
in
that
board
in
terms
of
bringing
issues
and
being
able
to
purge
out
and
really
work
through
this
situation,
I
think
that's
something
that's
going
to
help
immensely
and
allow
us
to
continue
to
be
a
destination.
There's
a
lot
happening,
but
we
need
to
continue
build
on
this
dream
and
develop
it
and
I'm
here
to
support
it.
I
applaud
you
I
blessed
you
and
I
thank
God
for
you,
Thank.
H
H
Simply
education,
rent
control,
definitely
is
not
something
that
is
good
for
cities
more.
So
the
RAM
Stadium
is
not
the
problem
for
rents
increasing
in
Inglewood.
The
homeless
issue
is
across
the
whole
United
States
rental
rates
are
going
across
the
United
States,
especially
California
and
New
York
areas.
H
Ownership
is
power,
I
used
to
be
a
Hohner
and
I
am
a
renter
now,
so
I
fall
into
the
same
thing
as
all
the
other
runners
here,
but
it's
something
you
have
to
try
to
adjust
to
and
make
accountants
as
for
way
back
when,
when
families
were
struggling,
that
that
families
live
together
and
they've
pooled
their
money
together
to
make
sure
families
survive.
That's
one
of
the
problems:
now
we
don't
do
that
anymore.
You
can
survive,
but
it
takes
the
family
unity.
To
do
that,
we
can't
tell
the
owner.
H
You
can't
raise
your
rent
now
going
outrageous
with
rent
prices.
I
understand,
but
four
increases.
Englewood
has
been
so
far
below
market
value.
All
these
owners
are
doing.
Most
of
them
is
coming
up
to
market
value.
Some
are
doing
it
to
improve
the
building.
Some
are
new
owners.
If
you're
doing
it
to
improve
the
buildings,
you
can't
look
for
a
person
why
they
raise
rent
this
month
and
now
next
month,
you're
complaining,
saying,
hey:
they
haven't
fixed
up
the
building.
It
takes
time
to
get
to
that
point,
to
put
a
roof
on
a
building.
H
I
B
There's
no
doubt
we
have
a
housing
crisis.
That's
just
under
there's
no
question
about
that
question
is
how
do
we
help
solve
it
and
obviously
it's
a
supply-side
issue,
so
we
need
to
look,
there's
no
amount
of
legislation.
That's
gonna
put
a
family
in
a
house,
that's
not
there,
so
we
need
to
look
at
incentives
to
increase
housing
as
well
as
protect
those
people
that
are
currently
in
housing.
As
was
said,
the
four
major
cities
that
have
rent
control
have
the
highest
rents.
B
There
are
because
it
discouraged
development,
so
we
need
to
look
at
positive
things
and
a
lot
of
people
talk
about
some
of
the
newer
developments
or
higher
price,
but
that's
move
up
housing
so
that
helps
the
other
people
and
from
last
year's
election
prop
10
overwhelming
showed
that
renters
realized
that
rent
control
was
not
the
issue.
As
the
gentleman
just
said,
there
has
to
be
some
equity
in
terms
of
looking
at
rent
increases
across
across
the
board.
Some
cities
are
looking
at
voucher
programs.
B
They
help
those
that
are
most
vulnerable
in
terms
of
that,
and
also
right
now,
according
to
the
city
of
Los
Angeles,
the
current
regional
CPI
is
three
point:
nine,
so
anything
that
you're
going
under
that
is
not
even
keeping
up
with
the
inflation
and
I
would
like
to
encourage
us
to
look
at
more
supply-side
issues.
I,
look
at
voucher
programs
like
lump
sum
cities
have
to
help
those
people
that
are
that
are
most
marginal
on
the
line.
B
Now
it's
so
hard
to
develop
a
get
a
project
through
some
cities
just
recently
voted
down
some
major
projects
that
would
have
brought
housing
on
live.
We
have
a
lot
of
NIMBYism
and
all
these
kind
of
things,
so
we
need
to
look
at
positive
programs
to
do
that
and
just
to
address
when
a
question
you
asked
mayor
under
current
law
in
terms
of
rent
rollback,
they
can't
go
past.
They
date
that
the
original
ordinance
was
introduced.
So
it's
just
state
law,
I
believe.
B
I
AF
Figueroa
I'm
an
organizer
with
la
voice
and
also
part
of
the
uplift
Englewood
coalition.
The
uplift
Englewood
Coalition
is
made
of
holy
faith,
LA
Boys
Inglewood,
First,
United,
Methodist,
Church,
Inglewood,
First,
Presbyterian
Church,
the
Youth,
Justice
Coalition,
social
justice,
Learning
Center
create
the
change
and
community
residents
the
faith
community's
business
owners
as
well.
So
I
also
want
to
thank
you
for
this
step
that
you
guys
have
taken
towards
this
housing.
A
permanent
housing
ordinance
I
as
an
organizer,
have
been
on
the
ground.
AF
Working
with
residents
and
I
have
seen
the
benefit
and
the
impact
that
the
rent
moratorium
has
had
on
them
being
able
to
say
in
their
apartments,
which
is
huge,
and
it's
significant
and
it's
been
really
stressful
for
them
to
deal
with
it,
but
things
to
the
protections
they
have
benefited.
So
thank
you
for
that,
and
you
know
I
do
believe
that
we
do
need
a
permanent
ordinance.
So
thank
you
for
taking
that
step.
AF
Okay.
So,
according
to
our
partners
at
public
counsel,
the
rent
rolled
back,
there
is
legal
standing
around
that
and
the
idea
and
justification
is
that
when
people
start
talking
about
rent
control,
the
landlords
and
property
owners
react
to
that,
and
so
they
keep
increasing
the
rents.
And
so
people
have
already
been
gouged.
And
so
that's
why
that's
one
of
the
amendments
that
we
are
asking
for?
One
of
the
demands
that
we're
asking
for,
because
people
have
already
raised
their
rents
due
to
the
speculation
and
due
to
the
conversation
around
were
in
control.
I
A
little
further,
but
uplift,
probably
a
year
ago,
started
a
st.
your
gathering
process
about
control,
and
so
under
that
theory,
then,
as
soon
as
that
petition
went
around,
then
landlords
could
have
started
raising
rents
and
then
under
that
theory,
then
you
could
roll
it
back
to
a
year
ago
as
well,
see
what
I'm
saying
I'm
just
I'm
just
trying
to
get
the
logic
of
it
together.
I
just
don't
think
it
fits
yeah.
AF
You
know,
I
agree
with
with
everyone
with
many
of
our
community
residents.
Our
wages
are
not
going
up
as
much
as
the
rent
increases
are
going
up,
and
so
you
know
the
LA
Times
article
came
out
with
the
homelessness
numbers.
You
know.
We
believe
that
you
know
overwhelmingly
percent
of
people
are
REM
burden
and
that
isn't
creasing
the
problem
for
homelessness.
So
again,
thank
you
for
this
and
we
asked
for
stronger
protections,
no
more
than
5%.
You
know
if
we
could
stay
attached
to
the
3
to
4%
CPI.
AF
I
AG
Afternoon,
my
name
is
Manu
hallo,
Aki
and
I
have
been
a
taxpayer
and
for
the
city
of
Englewood
for
over
42
years
and
I
have
been
a
home
owner
for
36
years.
The
reason
I'm
here
just
wanting
to
address
the
mayor
and
all
the
council,
because
I
lost
five
friends
that
I
have
been
my
friend
for
25
years
in
Englewood
and
they're
over
62.
The
reason
they
left
is
because
of
the
increase
of
the
rent
and
I'm
here,
support
the
Englewood,
uplifting,
Englewood
and
also
la
voice,
just
to
think
about
not
eight
percent
over
I.
AG
Think
across
the
board,
like
the
CPI,
was
three
to
four
at
least
five.
You
are
doing
what
it
is
right
in
the
right
direction.
Just
asking
the
thing
about
those
who
have
been
in
this
city
for
over
twenty
plus
years
and
because
of
the
rent
hike
they
left
the
place,
they
love
call
their
home.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
and
have
a
good
day.
Thank.
AH
My
name
is
James
Ashford
I
bought
my
first
apartment
bill
in
an
Inglewood
in
1974
I've
been
in
Inglewood
ever
since
I,
don't
own
three
buildings
in
Inglewood.
I
took
a
lot
of
risk
when
I
first
came
here,
because
I
was
dealing
with
security
problems,
the
gangs
and
I
would
always
take
the
worst
buildings
in
the
area
and
then
I'd
fix
them
up
anytime.
AH
I
did
major
increases
were
always
done
through
talking
with
the
tenant
telling
them
what
I
was
gonna
put
in
and
how
much
I
was
gonna
raise
the
rent
and
we
had
an
understanding.
I
never
had
any
problem
with
gouging
tenants
and
most
landlords
are
getting
a
bad
rap,
because
you
have
a
few
owners
that
just
disrespect
human
nature
and
if
they're
the
tenants
want
less
rent
the
owners
want
to
increase
the
value
of
their
property.
This
is
a
business
that
we
do.
AH
How
many
owners
I
know
they
have
lost
their
properties
through
foreclosure,
because
the
tenants
don't
come
and
say:
let's
give
you
some
extra
money
to
keep
this
building,
so
you
don't
lose
it
no,
but
when
it's
the
other
way
around,
we
can't
get
our
profits
out
that
we
deserve
now.
I
got
caught
in
the
rent
control,
because
I
honestly
didn't
believe
that
the
political
climate
in
Englewood
was
the
same
as
Los
Angeles
I
got
I
had
about
five
buildings
in
Los
Angeles
we
were
always
getting
inspected.
There
was
one
fine
or
one
issue
after
another.
AH
We
were
dealing
with
ten
tenant
complaints,
but
this
again
is
the
kind
of
buildings
I
bought
because
I
would
fix
him
up
and
then
bring
him
to
market
value
and
then
I'd
move
on,
but
I,
never
I,
I,
don't
believe
in
rent
control
and
that's
one
of
the
main
reasons
why
I
stayed
in
Inglewood
when
I
heard
the
rumor
and
then
I
knew
the
stadium
was
coming
in.
There
was
no
way
that
I
thought
that
you
guys
would
impose
ready
control.
AH
AH
I
AH
I
AH
I
AH
AH
AI
AI
In
particular,
over
the
years
we've
seen
a
rise
in
complaints
from
city
members
here
in
Englewood,
especially
from
senior
residents
who
have
been
part
of
the
community
and
have
made
this
community
a
community
for
40
years
and
more
that
are,
you,
know,
74
and
are
receiving
rent
increases
and
notices
to
vacate
for
no
fault
of
their
own.
In
addition,
you
know:
we've
seen
just
tenants
living
with
severe
pest
infestation,
problems
in
their
units,
that
file
complaints
and
then
in
turn
are
retaliated
against
by
property
owners.
So
that
is
wise.
AI
As
you
know,
we've
heard
mentioned,
we've
also
received
complaints
from
current
city
residents
that
are
still
receiving
rent
increases,
despite
the
fact
that
there
is
this
temporary
we're
in
control
and
in
some
board,
so
that
enforcement
would
be
needed
as
well
so
that
it's
followed
through
and
that
those
protections
are
actually
offered
to
the
tenants.
And
so
we
in
the
total
wholeheartedly
agree
with
the
way
the
steps
being
taken
right
now,
and
we
thank
you
for
your
time.
I
AF
AJ
AJ
I
come
home
to
you,
know,
bring
things
up
and
when
I
first
went
out
on,
disability,
I
didn't
apply
for
section
8,
because
I
was
accustomed
to
recovering
and
being
able
to
work,
but
that's
not
the
case
anymore
and
is
extremely
difficult,
and
so
therefore
that's
why
I'm
here
to
advocate
on
behalf
of
both
affordable,
ad8
housing
as
well
as
rent
stabilization,
because
if
something
happens
to
my
landlord
I'll
be
homeless.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.
Thank.
AK
My
name
is:
pastor
Victor
Osiris,
Franklin
I'm,
the
pastor
of
the
First
United
Methodist
Church
of
Inglewood,
and
a
member
of
the
uplift
Englewood
coalition
first
I
just
like
to
offer
thanks
and
gratitude
to
you,
mr.
mayor
and
the
City
Council,
for
just
hearing
the
cries
of
your
people
by
hearing
the
cries
of
our
community
are
regarding
the
need
for
some
type
of
consideration
around
rent
stabilization,
you've
heard
much
for
many
I'm.
Just
gonna
reiterate
that
at
eight
percent
cap
is
far
too
high
for
Englewood
residents,
who
have
already
suffered
enough.
AK
There's
been
pain,
inflicted
already
and
we're
looking
to
restore
and
heal
that
pain.
The
truth
is,
many
of
us
are
still
struggling
and
we're
looking
for
a
way
to
resolve
and
heal
they're
struggling
again
I'm
a
pastor
of
a
congregation
I'm
a
resident
here
in
the
city
of
Englewood
and
when
I
think
about
that
eight
percent
cap
and
the
potential
of
an
annual
increase
of
8
percent
I.
Think
about
my
seniors,
who
are
on
fixed
incomes
who
are
not
receiving
more
money.
AK
If
you
want
our
families
to
stay
here,
if
we
want
to
heal
this
community,
8%
cap
is
far
too
high.
If
we're
looking
over
the
next
four
to
five
years,
we're
asking
that
you
please
consider
amending
the
rent
stabilization
ordinance
to
tie
the
annual
rent
increase
allowance
to
the
Consumer
Price
Index.
As
many
have
said
before,
if
the
CBI
CPI
exceeds
5%
to
cap,
rent
increases
at
5%.
This
is
a
common
practice
for
our
CEOs
and
other
cities,
because
it
ensures
that
landlords
received
their
right
to
a
fair
return.
AK
AK
Thank
you
for
hearing
the
concerns
of
your
residents
and
we
look
forward
to
continuing
to
work
together
so
that
Inglewood
can
rise
up
I,
just
like
to
say,
as
we
rise
as
a
city
as
we
resurrect
as
a
city,
we
can
resurrect
if
everyone's
relocated,
we
can
resurrect
together
current
residents
and
new
residents,
so
we
look
forward
to
working
together
toward
that
end.
Thank.
I
You,
sir
I
wanna,
thank
you
for
coming.
Let
me
ask
you
a
question,
though,
so
what
would
you?
How
would
you
handle
it
so
say?
You're,
a
landlord
or
a
an
owner
and
you've
had
a
building
where
you've
had
traditionally
suppressed
rents,
and
you
haven't
had
money
to
invest
right
because
you
can't
get
those
kind
of
rents.
So
now
your
building
is
in
need
of
a
new
roof,
a
new
plumbing.
I
AK
Say
one
of
the
conversations
that
we've
had
amongst
the
coalition
and
amongst
Englewood
home
team,
which
is
really
faith
communities
in
the
area
who've
expressed
concern
about
housing
and
bringing
our
members
together
to
express
what
our
needs
and
concerns
are.
Some
of
us
are
homeowners.
Some
of
us
are
property
owners,
and
some
of
us
are
renters.
The
conversation
amongst
us
has
really
been.
There
should
be
a
distinction
between
those
who
are
mom-and-pop
owners
versus
corporations.
AL
AK
In
and
buying
our
properties
and
so
creating
that
distinction
helps
to
create
the
environment
for
that
kind
of
consideration
for
mom-and-pop
owners.
So
they
can
have
the
freedom
to
do
what
they
need
to
do,
while
at
the
same
time
placing
some
regulations
on
corporate
owners
who
are
not
from
here.
Okay,.
I
And
I
want
to
continue
this.
Oh
so
you
hit
on
something
that's
very
important
that
that
people
have
to
have
the
capacity
to
provide
housing.
It's
just
not
enough
for
them
just
to
have
it
it
and
have
it
sit
there.
They
have
to
improve
it,
they
have
to
maintain
it
and
and
then
you
make
a
distinction
between
corporate
owners
and
mom-and-pops.
But
if
you
are
corporation
and
you've
taken
over
a
building
that
has
to
be
rehabilitated,
is
it
fair
that
they
not
allowed
or
they're
not
allowed
an
increase
to
amortize
their
investment?
AK
E
AK
If
we
create
an
environment
that
creates
a
hostile
environment
for
the
residents
of
the
city,
then
the
question
of
justice
begins
at
there
also
again
for
every
homeowner,
who
is
a
resident
or
owner
in
this
city.
That's
where
the
question
of
fairness
begins
and
I
believe
that
part
of
the
reason
for
the
importance
of
the
community
oversight
so
that
we
can
have
those
conversations
and
work
together
to
creating
those
solutions.
So
long
as
we
are
all
a
part
of
the
process,
we
can
address
those
concerns.

Hello
council
mayor,
my
name
is
Derek
Truluck

I
didn't
have
much
to
say,
but
sitting
here
watching
all
the
speakers
come
I'll,
be
a
professional
speakers
and
coalition's,
and
things
like
that.
I'm
someone
who
who
works
as
a
housing
provider
each
and
every
day,
I
have
over
a
hundred
tenets,
and
probably
none
of
them
are
a
part
of
the
coalition,
because
my
rents
are
so
low
that
that
they
would
have
anything
about
what
I
would
need.

We
hear
you
right
you've
providing
housing,
that's
a
noble
thing
to
do,
but
there's
a
balance
so
so
you've
said
wow,
I'm
limited
now
and
now
I
need
to
do
something.
At
the
same
time,
the
people
that
are
renting
from
you
they're
kind
of
freaked
out
just
hearing
it
Wow.
If
he
could
go
to
ten
fifteen
percent,
he
would
and
a
lot
of
them
would
have
to
go.
You
see
it
is
a
balance
and,
and
so
it
becomes
a
comparative
pain
situation
and
and
we're
at
a
crossroads
right
now.
AM

I
AO
Sutton
with
the
California
Apartment
Association-
oh
I,
do
know
you
Fred
our
honorable
mayor
and
council
members.
I
understand
this
is
a
very
emotional
issue.
The
California
Apartment
Association
represents
housing
providers
in
the
city
of
Englewood
and
throughout
the
state
of
California,
and
we
respectfully
urge
the
council
to
modify
this
proposal.
Although
it's
well-intentioned,
this
will
undoubtedly
make
Englewood
more
expensive,
make
housing
harder
to
find
and
will
not
create
a
single
new
unit
to
address
the
underlining
issue
which
is
there's
there's
just
not
enough
housing
throughout
California
Los,
Angeles,
Santa,
Monica
and
West
Hollywood.
AO
These
are
the
most
expensive
cities
in
the
nation.
All
have
rent
control
and
some
of
them
had
higher
rent
caps
earlier
in
their
histories.
I
did
want
to
address
real
quickly.
Some
of
the
this
8%
large
rent
increases
are
the
result
of
operational
costs.
You're
gonna
see
the
largest
operation
cost
sway
in
the
building
changes,
hands
or
on
their
substantial
rehabilitation
which
the
city
wants.
You
want
your
housing
stock
to
be
updated.
It
was
not
built
to
last
like
the
pyramids.
This
ordinance
should
be
more
targeted
towards
where
the
issue
is.
AO
It's
really
important
to
protect
financial
flexibility,
the
8%.
If
someone
hasn't
raised
rents
in
five
years,
8%
is
not
gouging.
The
higher
the
free
market
and
the
higher
allowability
creates
that
comfort.
So
you
can
make
those
financial
decisions
for
your
own
self.
The
lower
you
bring
it.
Studies
have
shown
the
2009
study
from
Los
Angeles.
AO
You
will
increase
the
frequency
of
increases
that
are
allowable,
so
it's
very
important
to
have
that
that
flexibility,
it
will
work
for
everybody,
it's
in
the
interests
of
tenants
and
everybody
in
the
city
that
there
hasn't
or
I
saw
in
the
report
that
there's
no
financial
impact
I
do
encourage
the
city
to
look
at
the
financial
analysis.
There's
not
a
run
control
city
that
does
not
have
a
multi-million
dollar
program
associated
with
it.
AO
There
will
be
properties
that
are
devalued
and
that
will
effects
a
tax
base
and
the
revenue
streams
that
come
to
local
school
bonds
and
things
that
nature
it
should
at
least
be
considered
as
we
make
these
decisions
unit
controlling
just
cause,
policies
help
protect
nuisance
and
illegal
activity.
It
makes
it
very
hard
to
remove
someone,
that's
causing
a
problem.
The
property
I
encourage
the
council
to
institute
a
vesting
period,
something
like
San,
Diego
or
long
Long,
Beach
three
years
before
these
policies
apply.
AO
So
if
someone
shows
up
that
is
causing
issues
it,
you
don't
have
to
go
through
a
long
court
process
and
legal
settlements.
The
other
item
I'd
like
to
address
is
a
mechanism
to
accommodate
increase
in
expenses.
If
you're
gonna
keep
the
4%,
which
I
think
it
should
be
raised
for
financial
flexibility,
there
should
be
viewed
as
a
floor
earlier
this
year
the
CPI
went
above
4%.
Essentially,
people's
costs
are
out
going
what
they're
allowed
to
give,
and
that's
that's,
not
a
landlord's
fault
that
is
labor
and
everything
that's
going
along
with
it.
AO
I
Let
me
ask
you
one
question
you
raised
the
issue
of
you
know
the
fact
that
you
have
to
run
a
business,
and
you
know
when
there's
building
turnover
that
the
mortgage
is
higher
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
But
what
do
you
do
or
the
people
that
create
caught
in
the
middle
and
and
say
that
they
figured
they're
performing
eads,
a
25%
increase
per
unit?
And
then
you
have
all
these
people,
some
of
them
single
mothers
and
fathers
with
minor
children,
and
they
have
no
money
saved
and
no
place
to
go.

Afternoon
my

is
Noemi
Louisa
and
I'm,
a
resident
of
Lennox
and
an
incoming
college
freshman,
although
I'm
not
directly
a
resident
of
England
I,
was
born
here
and
lived
close
enough
to
the
proximity
to
no
and
have
observed
all
the
changes.
I
have
been
going
on
really
recently.
I
am
here
to
speak
on
behalf
of
my
friends,
relatives
and
other
families
that
have
been
displaced
due
to
the
increase
in
rent
amount.
AP
I
am
here
to
speak
on
behalf
of
people
that
were
unable
to
make
it
to
today's
City
Council
meeting
and
any
others
because
of
the
time
that
take
place,
taking
into
consideration
that
a
lot
of
families
do
work,
9:00
to
5:00
p.m.
jobs
and
they're
extremely
busy,
as
is
I
speak
for
students
here
when
I
say
that
I
have
watched.
AP
My
friends
that
live
in
Inglewood
teenagers
cried
to
me
because
their
parents
were
unsure
of
how
they
were
gonna
pay
for
the
rent
for
this
month
and
the
next
no
child
should
ever
have
to
worry
about
their
parents
bills.
They
should
be
worrying
about
homework
that
they
have
to
complete
when
they
get
home.
Many
of
these
friends
have
had
to
relocate
to
cheaper
areas
like
Arizona
Nevada,
sacrificing
their
lives
and
the
people
they
know
and
everything
they
knew
because
it
was
the
best
financial
decision
for
their
family.
AP
AP
I
have
enough,
as
is
financially
I,
applaud
your
efforts
for
what
you
have
done
most
recently,
but
more
needs
to
be
done
to
ensure
that
no
other
kid
has
to
worry
about
where
they
can
move
to,
because
they
can't
afford
to
pay
the
right
here
to
not
do
something
about
this.
It
would
be
wrong
because
City
Council
members
are
here
to
serve
the
people
and
do
is
doing
something
that
opposes
a
majority,
would
just
be
supporting
your
personal
and
private
matters.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.
Thank.

AQ
So
good
afternoon
my
name
is
Maribel
Cervantes
and
I'm.
Also,
an
incoming
college,
freshman
I
was
born
in
Daniel,
Freeman,
Hospital
and
I've
lived
in
England
my
whole
life
due
to
unforeseen
circumstances.
My
family
of
six
had
lost
our
home
and
needed
to.
We
found
ourselves
needing
to
rent
one
during
my
high
school
career,
although
SM,
you
may
or
may
not
know,
finding
a
home
to
rent
for
a
family
of
six
is
really
difficult.
So
that
means
we
face
just
displacement.
AQ
No
child
should
have
to
worry
about
where
they're
going
to
sleep
at
night,
they
should
be
focusing
on
their
school
and
different
games
like
that.
So
this
August,
our
lease
will
end
and
I
am
a
little
worried
about
how
much
it'll
increase
it'll
increase,
because
there
is
no
cap
at
this
time,
like
others
have
said,
I
applaud
your
efforts
and
it
is
really
a
good
step
in
the
right
direction.

Greetings
mayor,
James,
butts
jr.
and
council
Oh,
my
name
is
Althea
Moses
I
have
been
a
resident
of
Inglewood
for
30
years
and
I've
been
loving
it
until
recently,
I
mean
angled
Olympian
I
work
here.
I
rent
here
also
I'm
also
a
landlord
and
I
rent
because
I
use
it
as
my
office,
and
so
my
landlord
raised
raised
my
rent
twice
in
the
past
year
once
before
the
moratorium
and
once
since,
tomorrow,
a
moratorium
and
he
raised
5%.
So
that
wasn't
a
problem,
although
I
can
afford
to
pay
the
increase.
The
5%
increase.
AS
I
am
really
feeling
for
the
people
who
are
here.
The
friends
of
mine,
the
family
members
I'm
also
from
Belize
by
the
way.
So
as
an
immigrant
I
I
see
the
immigrants
that
are
struggling
right
now
to
pay
the
rent,
the
increased
rent.
So
I
really
appreciate
the
the
mayor
and
the
council
giving
consideration
to
creating
a
law
that
will
have
where
we'll
have
rent
control,
but
I'm
not
happy
about
the
8%
cat.
Simply
because
I
know
that
the
inflation
in
America
is
not
increasing.
8%
I
mean
it's,
not
a
percent,
so
I
went
online.
AS
AT
AS
Months
ended
April
to
knock
this
2019
and
that
was
published,
May
10th
2019
by
the
US
Labor
Department.
Now,
when
it
was
1.9,
2017
was
2.1%,
2016
was
2.1
percent
and
2015
was
0.7
percent.
So
I
really
want
you
guys
to
before
you
decide
on
this.
That
a
percent
cap
is
unacceptable
and
4
percent
every
year
is
also
unacceptable.
AS
Based
on
what
I
just
read
that
inflation
is
2%
in
the
past
year,
and
so
when
you
average
that
out,
it
is
not
even
more
than
4%
and
I'm
saying
this,
because
here
in
inglewood,
where's,
mostly
renters.
As
the
mayor
has
said
in
many
of
his
speeches
that
people
aren't
getting
4%
raises
every
year,
they're
not
I'm
a
teacher
at
LAUSD,
and
we
fought
we
marched
and
March,
as
you
guys
saw
on
TV
recently
for
6%
a
6%
raise.
We
should
be
getting
paid
6
figures
per
year,
all
the
stuff
that
we
put
up
with.
AS
AS
I
Your
question:
okay,
so
you're
talking
about
you,
know,
I've
seen
the
CPI
number
size
4.1%.
So,
but
let
me
ask
you
this,
so
if
you
only
give
the
owners
CPI,
which
is
an
average
actually
of
the
country,
it's
not
California.
Specific
costs
here
tend
to
be
more
gas
costs
more
here
than
a
dozen
taxes
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
But
the
question
is
this:
so
if
you
only
get
the
average
CPI
of
the
United
States
and
costs
are
more
here,
how
do
you
do
maintenance?
How
do
you
upgrade
your
property?
AS
I
Get
it,
but
would
you
you're
missing
what
I'm
saying
if
the
cost
of
living
is
going
up
and
you
have
to
get
a
loan
to
to
rehabilitate
a
property?
How
do
you
pay
that
loan
if
you
only
get
an
increase
tied
to
the
United
States
when
costs
are
higher
here,
if
your
housing
provider,
your
human
being?
How
do
you
do
that?
How
do
you
pay
for
it.
AB
Miss
Moses
just
for
to
add
to
that
the
cost
of
inflation
inflation
is
based
on
all
retailers.
That's
gas,
food
clothing,
cost
of
services,
so
it
doesn't
really
take
into
consideration
the
cost
of
a
loan
if
you
would
get
it,
how
much
interest
you're
paying
and
everything
else.
So
while
inflation
is
a
good
number
to
start
with,
when
we're
talking
about
rim
prices
and
amenities
around
properties,
it's
a
different
calculation.
So
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
and.
AS
AS
I
So
if
a
new
owner
bought
a
building
and
they
paid
significantly
more
than
the
person
that
bought
it
from
that
they,
but
it
from
now,
they
have
to
have
a
higher
recapitalisation.
They
have
to
pay
more
in
the
mortgage.
So
how
do
you
account
for
that?
If
you
only
give
them
CPI,
how
do
they
make
the
mortgage
payment
and.
AS
AS
I
AU
Are
handli
jr.
I've
been
an
owner
in
Englewood
for
over
40
years,
I've
had
a
little
six
unit.
Building
that
I
been
maintaining
and
taken
care
of,
and
I
keep
my
rents
low,
because
I
don't
want
turnover.
I
want
the
people
to
stay
there
for
years,
I
got
tennesippi
me
for
1416,
ten
or
twelve
years
and
I
enjoy
my
business
I'm
70
years
old
now
and
I
keep
getting
these
million-dollar
offers
for
my
property,
and
my
tenants
are
telling
me
if
I
sell
the
building
they're
gonna
have
to
move.
AU
You
know
because
they're
not
gonna
be
able
to
afford
the
rent
increases,
which
is
you
know,
supposedly
not
my
fault,
but
it
isn't
my
fault.
But
the
one
thing
I
want
to
address
was
that
I've,
since
I've,
been
a
longtime
owner
I've
been
able
to
keep
my
rents
low.
You
know
I
rent,
a
two-bedroom
for
1,400
a
month
now
I
think
that's
like
$300
a
month
under
average
or
something
or
more
over.

of
two
years
I
would
save
my
tenant
seventy
two
hundred
dollars
in
around,
but
you
know,
then,
if
I
give
them
percent
raise,
they
want
me
to
pay
a
relocation
fee
of
another
five.
Fifty
three
hundred
so
I
feel
like
this
is
totally
wrong
for
people
who
have
kept
their
rents
low
shouldn't
have
to
pay
a
relocation
fee.
Now
you
guys
keep
talking
about
this
8%
and
there
are
four
percent
I
think
there
has
to
be
a
dividing
line.
AU
AU
Fourteen
hundred
should
be
able
to
raise
the
rents
eight
percent
a
year
and
not
be
hit
with
this
relocation
fee
until
they
get
up
to
that
average
amount
of
rent
in
Englewood,
and
then
we
should
allow
the
people
you
know
people
are
getting
over
that
amount
like
seventeen
hundred
seventeen
fifty,
why
don't
we
just
limit
their
increases
to
the
four
percent
that
you've
talked
about
people
below?
Can
get
it
eight
percent
people
above
get
a
four
percent
because
I
don't
think
the
like.
AU
The
lady
who
was
here
before
said
her
rent
went
from
fifteen
fifteen
to
eighteen
hundred
and
some
dollars
that
that's
the
insane
she
shouldn't
be
paying
that
much.
You
know
the
owner
of
the
building
shouldn't
be
raising
her
two
or
three
times
a
year.
That's
ridiculous!
You
know,
I
gave
I
haven't
raised
my
rents
for
a
couple
of
years.
You
know
and
I
don't
think
about
it.
AU
AU
AU
AN
Bendel's,
oh
no
I,
don't
know
where
to
start.
My
family
have
been
here
since
82
I've
been
here
since
pretty
much,
then
I've
been
renting
for
more
than
15
years,
I'm,
probably
the
youngest
homeowner
here
and
I
believe
in
rent
control.
Because
of
that
situation
does
rent
like
so
for
people
like
him,
they
don't
some
people
don't
raise
the
rent
soon
hi,
so
you
could
save
money.
AN
AN
I
AV
City
Council
homeowners
and
fellow
renters,
my
name
is
kisses.
You
know,
and
I
am
an
Inglewood
resident
and
a
member
of
uplift
Inglewood
I'm
one
of
the
many
residents
who
have
who
had
already
received
a
$1,000
increase
and
had
to
leave
our
apartment
in
Inglewood
after
a
corporation
named
global
integrity,
purchased
my
building
and
made
multiple
violations
in
an
attempt
to
push
my
son
and
myself,
as
well
as
other
long-term
residents
out
of
our
units.
AV
AV
Why
is
it
hard
for
the
city
to
consider
giving
incentives
to
mom-and-pop
owner
that
have
tried
to
accommodate
and
give
reasonable
housing
for
the
mom-and-pop
owners
that
have
honored
the
policy
of
Just
Cause
eviction?
The
city
should
be
able
to
recognize
that
we're
booming
right
now
we
have
two
corporate
entities
that
have
come
in
and
we're
booming.
We
have
big
bright,
shiny
billboards
all
over
the
place,
we're
getting
revenue
on
top
of
that
it.
It's
especially
difficult
as
a
single
working
class
parent
to
meet
the
demands
of
rapidly
rising
utilities,
mortgages
and
rent
and
I'm.
H
AV
Extremely
gout,
that's
exactly
why
8%
is
too
high.
Their
butts
I've
personally
consistently
heard
you
mention
how
rental
rates
here
in
Englewood
have
been
rising
over
the
past
few
years,
so
this
isn't
new,
but
isn't
an
appropriate
time
to
stop
the
bleeding
and
actually
provide
current
residents
with
a
chance
to
allow
the
incomes
to
cut,
get
caught
up
or
to
catch
up.
I
want
to
roll
back
to
the
days
where
you
and
I
were
taught
you're
not
supposed
to
pay
more
than
a
third
for
your
rent
or
for
your
mortgages.
We're
well
past
that.
AV
AV
AW
AW
AW
You
guys
did
did
this
work
that
you
did
to
build
a
city
make
this
city
where
it
is
today.
Everybody
wants
to
come
live
here,
but
you
know
what
everybody
can't
live
in
this
city
there'll
be
too
many.
People
have
to
be
able
to
afford
where
you
live,
and
it's
not
up
to
the
property
owner
to
lose
money,
pay
for
the
roof
work.
You
have
to
do.
That's
torn
up
by
the
problem
by
the
rental.
I
have
to
look
out
for
them
too.
Oh
I
just
hope
this
council
I'm,
not
gonna,
suggest
anything
to
you.
AW
AX
Mayor
butts,
councilman
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
be
able
to
speak
I've
owned
my
building,
it's
I'm,
a
small
mom-and-pop
operation
and
I've
owned
the
building
for
about
18
years
now
and
I'm,
not
one
of
the
type
of
landlords
that
do
the
rent,
gouging
and
some
of
the
stories
that
I've
heard
here
has
just
been
horrible.
It's
like
the
lady
that
was
standing
here
earlier
in
the
afternoon
and
had
the
baby
over
her
shoulder
saying
that
she's
now
in
collections,
that
to
me
is
ridiculous,
and
but
it's
lots
of
landlords
out
there,
similar
to
myself.
AX
I,
have
tenants
that
I've
had
for
many
years.
Some
one
of
them
actually
is
over
a
decade.
Now
lots
of
them
are
nearing
decade
and
they
don't
leave
and
my
biggest
concern
I
I,
do
agree
with
stabilizing
things,
because
I
think
things
are
out
of
hand
because
of
the
stadium
and
in
these
gouging
landlords
to
make
it
bad
for
good
ones.
Like
myself,
however,
my
biggest
concern
is
the
major
calls
that
I
get
it.
If
I
choose
a
wrong
type
of
tenant,
then
that
tenant
becomes
a
nuisance,
then
that
just
cause
is
very
difficult.
AX
In
order
to
bring
harmony
back
to
my
building,
I'll
give
you
an
example:
I
had
a
tenant,
they
stayed
with
me
over
eight
years
and
the
children
finally
grew
up
into
thugs
and
they
decided
to
go
shopping
and
broke
into
one
of
my
other
tenants
units
and
so
Inglewood
of
police.
Of
course,
detectives
look
into
it
and
all
that
she
knew
who
broke
in
different
other
neighborhoods
knew
who
broke
in.
But
the
problem
is
we
couldn't
prove
it.
We
didn't
have
the
proof
and
so
Engle
detectives
say
well,
I'm.
Sorry,
there's
nothing
we
can
do.
AX
He
actually
saw
some
of
her
items,
jewelry
being
wore
by
some
of
the
perpetrators.
I
said,
call
Inglewood
police
again
she
did
they
say
unless
you
have
some
type
of
marking
engraving
or
something
of
that
sort.
I'm
there
there's
still
nothing.
We
can
do
to
me
and
she
says:
Pat
I
can't
live
like
this.
I'm,
not
gonna,
live
next
to
these
people
and
I
know
they're
wearing
my
things
and
I
said
no
problem.
They
got
a
60-day
notice
and
they
got
out
of
there.
Was
that
a
hardship
for
me?
AX
Yes,
I'm,
not
the
type
of
landlord.
They
want
an
empty
unit,
I'm,
not
throwing
people
out
just
because
so
because
of
that
fiasco.
With
these
now
thugs
they
grew
up
from
little
kids.
My
other
unit
ended
up
empty
because
they
thought
Pat
wasn't
doing
anything
about
it.
So
saying
that
to
say
the
Just
Cause
and
trying
to
have
to
prove
that
something
did
happen
would
be
quite
difficult
for
landlords.
Now,
I
don't
have
to
live
there,
and
but
the
tenants
that
would
come
to
court
with
me.
AX
I
AX
That's
when
I've
heard
other
people
talking
about
a
board,
you
know,
and
maybe
a
board
to
consist
of
actual
residents
as
well
as
the
landlord's
would
be
helpful
in
order
to
try
to
iron
these
type
of
situations
out,
we
used
to
have
a
meeting
every
quarter,
Malcolm
Bennett.
He
used
to
run
it
and
we
used
to
meet
right
here
in
Inglewood,
City
Hall
near
the
library
and
I,
don't
get
any
kind
of
information
on
those
meetings
or
anything
anymore.
AX
So
all
of
these
things
is
just
occurring
to
some
of
us
landlords,
especially
the
mom
and
pops
that
are
working
stiffs
out
there,
just
like
our
tenants
and
then
all
of
a
sudden.
We
get
this
information,
but
if
we
had
those
type
of
meetings
on
a
regular
basis
know
what's
coming
down
the
pipe,
maybe
there
could
be
some
solutions
that
could
be
generated
on
both
sides
to
make
the
landlord's
happy
as
well
as
make
the
tenants
happy.
It's
not
going
to
be
a
happy
medium
on
all
cases,
but
it
is
something
to
look
into.
Thank.
I

AY
On
behalf
of
the
college,
students
who
the
ones
that
go
to
a
JC
and
they're
scared
to
make
a
decision
on
where
to
transfer
to,
because
no
matter
where
they're
going
to
transfer
to
it's
still
going
to
be
further
from
home,
and
they
won't
be
able
to
help
out
as
much
at
home.
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
college
students,
who
are
at
a
university
and
have
to
transfer
back
to
a
JC
in
order
to
help
out
more.
AY
AY
Hundreds
of
open
cases
of
homelessness
for
young
high
school
students
within
the
city
of
Englewood
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
kids
in
my
situation,
who
feel
the
same
way
I
feel
I'm
being
helpless
and
hopeless
in
this
rental.
Wild
wild
west,
although
our
home
was
hit
with
a
56%
increase.
I
think
that
the
eight
percent
cap
is
too
high
and
the
Inglis
annual
rent
increase
allowance
should
be
tied
to
the
Consumer
Price
Index
and
should
be
captain
no
more
than
five
percent
I'm.
I
AY
Staying
behind
my
team
being
behind
your
team,
yes,
sir,
got
it
okay
and
to
answer
the
question:
I
do
think
it's
legal,
because
if
it's
legal
to
raise
the
rent
should
be
legal
to
decrease
it.
I
was
in
class
today
and
my
professor
said
about
the
parts:
if
you
take
care
of
the
parts
they
care
the
whole.
Thank
you.
AZ
How's
everybody
doing
today,
Derrick
steal
from
the
up
lingua
Coalition,
also
from
the
social
justice
our
Institute
want
to
say.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
us
finally,
getting
to
this
point.
This
is
a
long
time.
Coming
three
years
we've
been
working
on
this
issue,
there's
been
many
phone
calls
people
talking
to
their
neighbors.
You
know
the
the
collection
of
signatures
and
all
the
work,
not
only
just
on
our
end,
but
on
your
in
to
try
to
figure
out.
AZ
What's
the
best
way
to
move
to
this,
no,
we
don't
totally
agree
on
exactly
what
it
needs
to
be
in
there,
but
you
know,
and
looking
at
the
ordinance
itself
kind
of
reading
through
it
there's
a
lot
of
good
parts,
because
there
is
actually
something
being
put
on
the
books
when
there
was
nothing
at
all
right
and
so
we're
headed
in
the
right
direction.
There's
definitely
further
steps
that
we
can
take
I.
AZ
Think
the
scenarios
mayor
bus
that
you've
brought
forward-
and
some
of
the
stories
have
been
told
kind
of
make
the
case
for
why
the
the
structure
of
maybe
some
type
of
rental
board
is
necessary.
Just
so
that
someone
there's
a
group
of
people
who
can
kind
of
go
through
the
details
of
those
intricacies
because
never
not
not.
We
can't
every
story
is
not
going
to
be
the
same
across
the
board.
You
know
so
there's
there's
a
importance
to
try
to
figure
out
that
portion
of
it.
AZ
We
there's
been
conversation
about
the
the
writ
roll
back
and
the
reason
why
we
selected
October
2017
is
because
that's
when
we
put
in
and
start,
but
that's
what
we
put
in
our
ordinance
and
that's
where
the
conversation
started
about
starting
to
talk
about
the
the
possibility
of
rent
being
rent
control
being
in
the
city.
But
look
even
if
that's
our
point
of
view,
October
2017.
But
if
you
go,
we
can
go
January
4th
when
the
mayor
put
out
on
Facebook
that
this
was
a
possibility.
AZ
There
are
fiction
hearings
and
just
trying
to
find
the
best
way
to
go
forward,
even
the
enforcement
of
the
the
moratorium
that
was
put
in
place,
but
we
have
to
figure
out
how
this
these
things
actually
going
to
take
place
right,
because
there
are
people
who
are
ignoring
the
the
statute
as
it
stands
right,
and
so
there
has
to
be
some
some
level
of
enforcement,
some
level
of,
or
at
least
a
place
for
people
to
call
to
say,
hey.
This
is
what's
going
on
and
there's
a
process
that
takes
place
from
there.
I
want
to.
AZ
You
know
shout
out
to
the
City
Attorney's
Office
cuz.
That
has
been
one
of
the
places
that
we've
been
having
people
as
well,
but
we
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
trying
to
work
together
to
make
this
thing
effective
as
possible.
So
again,
thank
you
very
much
for
the
step
forward
in
the
right
direction.
I'm
excited
to
see
what
the
vote
is
at
the
end
of
this,
and
just
thank
you
for
your
song.
Mr.
AB
Steele,
you
mentioned
two
dates:
October
2017
and
January
4th,
both
of
which,
both
of
which
signifies
some
discussion
or
some
kind
of
acknowledgment
that
the
rent
control
should
be
considered
exactly.
Are
you
saying
that
there's
some
sort
of
precedent
set
that
it
has
to
be
tied
to
some
specific
date
if.
I
I
Be
that
everyone
that
owns
rental
property
that
increased
their
rent
did
it,
because
this
put
them
on
notice
and
that
this
is
a
fair
thing
to
do
to
roll
back
everybody's
rent.
Even
if,
during
the
meantime,
those
buildings
changed
hands
and
the
new
owner
paid
three
four
or
five
times
as
much
as
the
prior
mortgage
I
understand.
AZ
I
AZ
Do
you
think
that's
fair
there-there's,
many
different
pieces
that
are
or
pinpoints
that
we
can
choose
that
I?
If
we
look
at
the
data
to
to
verify
those
things,
but
everybody,
but
yes,
I,
do
believe
that
and
the
reason
why
I'm
saying
that
is
because
there's
other
cities
have
done
it.
Even
Santa
Monica
in
their
ordinance
has
rent
roll
back
as
a
clause
and
it
owned
its
own.
You
know
I
mean
so.
This
is
not
something
that
that's
that
was
arbitrary,
that
were
just
choosing
to
make
up
like.
I
AZ
B
I
Z
AZ
BA
AZ
AZ
I
AZ
Q
Q
Just
that's
the
profession
that
I'm
primarily
in
I,
don't
really
do
anything
else
other
than
investment
stocks
and
real
estate,
but
I
also
understand
that
I
prefer
to
keep
long
term
residence
incentives.
I
don't
want
people
come
in,
and
you
know
most
of
time
you
charge
astronomical
prices.
The
people
aren't
going
to
stay
very
long,
I've
seen
people
that
try
to
you
know,
charge
$2,000
or
$1,900,
no
matter
how
nice
your
place
is
the
residents
my
only
stay
for
three
to
six
months
and
they're.
Q
Like
you
know,
it's
no
point
me
paying
it
so
I'm
going
to
go,
live
with
a
family
member
or
something
like
that,
so
they'll
leave
and
at
me,
as
a
businessman
I
try
to
keep
my
numbers
realistic,
I.
Try
to
you
know
charge
like
fifteen
seventy
five
to
like
about
1650
for
two
bedrooms
and
those
are
fixed
up.
So
you
know
right
now
the
the
the
rent
roll
back.
I
Q
That,
but
also
like
I'm
appreciative
for
what's
put
in
place,
it
seems
like
it
encompasses
everything
for
both
parties.
What
currently
is
hurting
me
actually-
and
this
is
just
a
case
of
rent
control-
I-
have
one
bedrooms
that
are
like
640
square
feet.
I've
been
doing
this
since
2001
I,
don't
raise
my
rents
up
all
the
time.
One
on
my
residence
I.
Try
to
you
know,
make
sure
that
I
had
you
know,
I'm
gonna,
put
quality
into
this
product
and
then
I'll.
Q
Do
it
and
I'll
make
sure
it's
justifiable
and
it's
still
at
reasonable
rates
like
1275,
maybe
1350
max
for
a
one-bedroom
at
640
square
feet,
but
right
now,
because
of
the
moratorium,
that's
in
place,
I'm
stuck
in
at
850
for
some
of
my
one
bedrooms,
I
can't
you
know
make
sure
that
I
can,
you
know
continually,
do
upgrades
and
repairs
based
on
the
inflated
prices
of
what
is
that
at
Home
Depot,
as
well
as
the
labor
and
everything
at
those
prices.
That's.
I
Happens
if
one
of
those
tenants
in
that
eight
fifty
a
month
unit
is
say
like
a
single
man
with
that
stake,
raising
two
daughters
and
he's
making
minimum
wage
and
and
that's
the
best
he
can
do,
and
so
you
raised
the
rent,
maybe
eight
percent,
and
then
he
can't
afford
to
live
there
anymore.
I
mean
what
do
you?
What
what
happens
to
me
is
what
happens
well,.
Q
Q
You
need
to
be
investing
in
yourself,
whether
if
it's
your
education
to
provide
a
better
service
to
stay
relevant
in
the
community
or
if
you're,
investing
in
yourself
is
sort
trying
to
purchase
a
home
and
everything
so
throughout
the
tenure
of
them
being
there
them
coming
in,
at
whatever
price
that
I
said
originally
I
try
to
make
sure
that
their
position
and
ready
you
know
because
I
don't
want
to
have
to
evict
them
and
everything.
That's
gonna
cost
me
because
they're
gonna
abuse
the
law
and
sit
there
for
several
months
and.
Q
L
Q
Go
ridiculous
and
and
and
I
know
they
can't
afford
it
cuz
at
the
end
of
the
day,
I'm
gonna
have
to
evict
them
and
then
that's
gonna
cost
me
more
money
right
and
then,
if
I
do
try
to
go
like
at
the
the
current
market.
Rents
like
I,
said
most
people.
They
will
only
stay
there
for
a
couple
of
months
and
after
that
they're
gonna
moving
in
you
know
so.
You're
gonna
take
a
bigger
loss.
BC
Share
a
secret
with
you
reason
why
I
moved
to
Anaheim
is
because
some
good
people
out
there
that
I
was
working
with
on
a
defense
program
prompted
me
to
do
it.
I,
don't
regret
it.
It
changed
course
of
my
life,
because
I
bought
my
first
house
at
23.
I.
Halfway,
listened
to
my
old
man.
That's
how
the
song
goes.
I
didn't
buy
a
new
car,
I
didn't
buy
fancy
clothes,
I
didn't
chase
after
fancy.
Girls
I
had
a
priority.
It's
called
home
ownership.
BC
That's
why?
Since
that
day
this
moment,
there's
not
been
he's
a
property
that
didn't
have
my
name
on
it
and
I
plan
on
dying
and
leaving
it
to
my
family.
Don't
give
it
up!
That
being
said
with
my
final
moments,
bare
City,
Council,
I'm
feeling
it
for
you,
because
this
this
is
what
this
is.
What
history
brings
you
hard
decisions,
but
I
feel
you
should
do
as
the
Inglewood
resident
is
find
that
sweet
spot
and
put
closure
to
this,
because
the
vibe
I'm
picking
up
is
some
folks
never
want
this
to
end.
BC
BC
If
you
want
a
country
that
would
just
tell
homeowners
what
they
can
charge
for,
rent
Venezuela,
North
Korea
come
to
mind.
Some
people
want
societies
like
that.
That's
social
justice,
but
anyway
I
don't
believe
people
should
have
been
gouged
and
that
we
do
need
to
put
closure
to
it.
Hey
this.
This
is
how
far
we
go
and
we
can
go
no
further
people
cuz
in
five
years.

BD
Aerobats
councilman,
my
name,
is
Brett
Lyon
with
fly.
Install
investment
real
estate
were
a
real
estate
brokerage.
The
focus
is
on
representing
buyers
and
sellers
of
apartment.
Buildings
are
the
pleasure
of
representing
hundreds
of
buyers
and
sellers
in
the
city
of
Inglewood
over
the
last
decade,
and
it
puts
us
in
a
really
unique
position
to
speak
on
what
we
believe
is
on
their
behalf.
BD
We
have
the
unique
I
guess:
responsibility
of
being
property
owners
in
the
area
ourselves
and
recently
we
also
submitted
a
petition
and
a
survey
out
to
owners
in
the
area
and
two
things
that
we
found
overwhelmingly
from
people
that
responded
to
the
survey
were
one
that
they
were
against.
Rent
control
and
the
second
major
item
on
there
was
eighty.
Eight
percent
of
the
people
that
responded
felt
like
a
rent
control,
like
the
one
being
proposed,
would
create
hardship
that
would
or
could
lead
to
them
deferring
maintenance
on
their
buildings.
BD
So
I
think
that
that
ultimately
has
a
negative
impact
on
the
housing
in
the
area.
But,
aside
from
that,
I
think
we
can
all
agree.
There's
a
major
housing
crisis
in
the
state
of
California
and
the
nation
alone.
I
think
we
can
also
agree
there's
a
lot
of
people,
a
lot
of
tenants
to
live
here
that
are
in
need
and
I.
Think
we've
seen
a
lot
of
that
today,
but
I
don't
believe
that
rent
control
is
the
solution.
BD
I
think
that
what
it's
going
to
lead
do
is
higher
frequency
of
rent
increases
and
I
think
that
it's
not
necessarily
gonna
help.
Those
in
need
and
I
think
that's
the
main
point
that
I'd
like
to
make
I
think
with
the
issue
that
we're
dealing
with.
We
need
to
try
to
address
it
on
a
short-term
and
long-term
basis,
and
one
thing
that
I'd
like
to
say
you
guys
done
a
great
job
is
creating
incentives
for
development.
I
think
that
the
Tod
zone
has
had
a
major
impact
and
I
think
is
a
long-term
solution.
BD
Incentivizing
owners
to
create
more
housing
will
help
from
a
supply
side,
but
then
there's
still
the
short-term
pain
that
tenants
are
feeling
in
the
area
and
I
think
that
a
solution
for
that
short-term
pain
is
if
I,
do
not
believe
it's
rent
control.
But
what
I
do
believe
is
it's
helping
our
section.
8
housing
have
a
greater
impact
on
those
in
need.
I
think
the
major
issue
that
we're
going
to
deal
with
with
rent
control
is
that
we're
not
necessarily
gonna
help.
BD
Those
in
need
we're
gonna
help
those
with
low
rents,
but
we're
not
necessarily
gonna
help.
Those
that
are
in
need,
I
think
we
need
to
address
that.
I.
Think
we've
heard
a
lot
a
lot
today
from
owners
who
have
brought
up
scenarios
that
we
would
believe
are
warranted
for
delivering
a
notice
to
vacate
a
couple
great
stories
and
then
there's
others
that
were
worried
about
being
malicious
with
their
intent,
but
talking
about
kind
of
trying
to
decipher
between
those
two
but
I
think.
BD
The
major
thing
we
need
to
look
at
is
that
the
the
renters
that
are
truly
in
need
are
gonna
need,
help
and
I
think
that
the
city
of
Englewood
should
consider
how
creating
a
tenant
assistant
program
for
those
that
are
in
need
and
help
address
the
problem
from
the
city
side
rather
than
putting
the
entire
burden
on
the
owners
in
the
area.
That's
it.
I
I
This
is
the
point
I'm
making.
This
is
that
point
I'm
making,
so
so
an
owner
makes
an
arbitrary
decision
to
raise
rent
a
hundred
percent.
Then
you
feel
the
city
should
now
relocate
the
tenant,
because
an
individual
owner
made
an
arbitrary
decision
that
wanted
to
raise
rent
that
amount.
So
the
city
should,
on
an
unlimited
basis,
do
that
for
every
building
in
every
tenant,
where
an
owner
makes
an
individual
decision
to
raise
rent
to
where
that
tenant
can
no
longer
afford
it.
You
really.
BD
Think
it
would
be
need-based,
and
if
the
city
of
Englewood
feel
strongly
about
helping
the
tenants
in
need,
I
think
would
be
something
they
could
come
and
help
get
assistance
from
the
city,
but
you're
also
saying:
why
should
it
be
the
city's
responsibility?
I
would
also
say
that
it.
Why
should
it
be
solely
the
owners
responsibility
to
take
on
that
burden
right.
I
Okay,
so
good,
so
you
you're
a
business
person
right
Sam,
and
so,
if,
if
I
were
to
say,
the
city
was
going
to
make
you
responsible
for
decisions
that
other
people
made
on
an
unlimited
basis,
because
you're
an
investment
company
and
you
guys
are
well
capitalized
that
you
should
do
that.
What
do
you
think
that
was
fair
I?
Would.

BF
My
name
is
dejoy
Robinson
and
I'm
gonna
speak
very
fastly.
I
could
give
you
a
history
of
40
years
in
Englewood
as
a
tenant,
a
minister
a
whole
lot
of
stuff
I
did
but
I
have
to
noticing.
Since
everybody
comes
up
here,
they
all
talking
about
the
same
thing.
Okay,
so
let
me
get
down
to
the
bare
nuts
of
Mike
here.
Why
I'm
here?
Yes,
I,
think
that
eight
percent
is
too
high.
I.
Think
five
percent
would
be
good.
BF
I
BF
I
BF
Right,
yeah,
I'm,
sorry,
2019,
okay,
that's
far
as
aerobics
I
do
think
there
should
be
an
elected
official
board
to
handle
these
rent
because
you
know,
if
we
just
put
in
people
to
get
raised
up
from
one
job
to
another
job.
It
causes
problems.
That's
one
thing:
okay,
I'd
like
to
pose
mr.
Breton
'm
where'd
they
go.
Okay,
everybody
keeps
talking
about
fair
market
value,
and
the
eight
percent
is
not
enough.
The
the
four
it
should
be
round.
Five
fair
market
value
is
because
of
them.
They
set
the
precedents
for
the
market.
BF
We're
not
there
yet
and,
and
neither
is
our
paychecks
now
you
asked
a
couple
of
questions
on
how
to
do
some
of
the
repairs
and
stuff
for
these
big
corporations
and
stuff
and
I
want
to
make
sure
I
say
this.
These
corporations,
that's
talking
about
the
people
that
can't
take
the
rent
and
whatever
it's
a
difference
between
mom
and
pops,
and
the
corporations
there's
a
huge
difference
when
they
stand
here
talking
about,
they
did
something
for
the
the
owners
and
stuff
yeah
the
corporation
versus
the
mom-and-pop.
It's
like
this
okay!
BF
I
BF
I
won't
tell
you,
won't
even
take
a
minute.
I
would
like
to
talk
about
the
corporations
and
the
contractors
in
them
in
a
community
that
made
a
lot
of
money.
How
about
them?
Investing
back
in
taking
some
of
Prison
Reforms
defines
community
services
stuff
tell
people
build
up
their
Rufus
Rufus
roofs
fix
their
property
or
whatever,
and
it
would
be
done
on
a
bare
level,
mininum
medium
costs
to
the
city
and
to
the
owners,
and
that
sound
good
sounds.
A
BF
BG
A
BG
But
I'm
gonna
speak
on
behalf
of
Stephanie
Castaneda
she's,
a
trustee
board
member
trustee
number
5%,
another
Valley
School
District.
She
had
to
go
to
a
graduation
right
now
and
the
next
two
days
I'm
going
to
be
participating
in
the
graduation
ceremonies
of
the
students
in
my
district,
some
of
which
are
included
residents
and
as
they
move
into
the
next
chapter
in
their
lives
in
either
two
or
four
into
either
two
or
four-year
institutions.
I
cannot
guarantee
that
they
will
be
able
to
come
back
to
the
communities
that
they
grew
up
in.
BG
BG
Alright,
the
black
and
brown
people
in
the
community
that
there
is
a
place
in
the
city
for
them
is
you
so
then?
Now
me,
my
name
is
Alexis
Evans
I'm
a
board
member
for
the
Lenox
School
District
I'm
here
on
my
own
behalf
as
Stephanie
was
also
here
on
her
own
behalf,
so
basically
I
just
kind
of
want
to
talk
about
what
happens
to
school
districts
when
there's
displacement
and
a
higher
cost
of
living
families
are
moving
now
rapidly.
Ata
is
decreasing
and
we're
receiving
less
funding
and
I
know
that's
happening
in
Inglewood.
BG
So
I
wanted
to
ask
where's
the
rest
of
the
leadership
when
it
comes
to
school
districts
to
talk
about
displacement
and
the
displacement
we're
seeing
because
the
city
of
Inglewood
went
in
on
propagating
a
vision
for
the
city
that
didn't
include
everyone
and
we're.
Not.
Everyone
was
consulted
I'm
talking
specifically
about
renters
in
the
working
class.
So
in
holding
these
meetings
at
2:00
p.m.
BG
The
city
of
Englewood.
We
need
the
city
of
Englewood
to
build
developments
that
provide
affordable
housing
yesterday
and
there's
also
the
topic
about
vacant
housing.
So
I
know
the
supervisors
of
LA
County
right
now
are
having
a
conversation
about
penalizing
landlords
for
having
vacant.
You
know
homes
so
yeah.
That's
what
I
got
to
say.
I
BG
BH
Good
evening
I'm
Caroline
Evans,
and
thank
you
for
this
opportunity.
I
bought
my
first
house
when
I
was
23
years
old
when
Leimert
Park,
held
on
to
that
property
for
several
years
and
I
heard
about
the
city
of
Englewood,
I've
been
purchased.
A
triplex
on
Venice
and
I
have
owned
properties
in
different
parts
of
the
country,
including
Florida
Alabama,
Detroit,
Michigan
and
San
Antonio
Texas
I've
recently
sold
those
properties
because
those
properties
do
not
appreciate
life.
BH
The
quote
unquote
la
market
does
my
goal
was
to
sell-off
and
then
to
reinvest
here
in
the
city
of
Inglewood.
That
probably
will
not
happen.
I
would
also
like
to
say
this.
The
thought
of
rolling
back
brett's
to
October
2017
seems
to
be
very
unfair.
How
would
you
like
for
me
to
rollback
your
salary,
your
Social
Security,
your
SSI,
your
retirement
to
October
2017
recently
I
had
to
purchase.

BH
BH
The
cost
of
gasoline
is
gonna,
Bret
has
done
up,
milk
has
gone
up,
but
for
some
strange
reason
we
property
owners
are
being
targeted,
I
think
it's
extremely
unfair
and
I
would
ask
you
please
to
remember
that
we
are
human
beings
as
well.
We
both
mom
and
pops

very
hard

I
have

up

person.

as

here
today,
as
we
speak
to
you
guys,
this
is
crossing
over
to
grounds
of
morals
and
ethics.
You
guys
have
become
sometimes
business
men
instead
of
politicians,

as
a
leader
right
and
that's
leadership,
there's
no
self
accumulation
in
that.
Do
you
only
serve
in
this
in
the
people?
That's
why
you
guys
sit
below
us
cuz,
we're
here
to
speak
to
you
all
and
not
answer
your
questions,
or
do
anything
that
we're
here
to
voice
our
opinions
to
was
going
on
a
tour,
the
people
who
serving
us
and
by
you
serving
us,
we
should
be
able
to
say
hey.
BB
This
is
what's
going
on
and
by
the
time
we
all
agree
here
today,
which
everyone's
the
most
of
the
most
of
the
people
here
speaking
today,
disagree
with
this
as
the
people
who
live
here
you've
become
so
detached
from
related
being
relatable
to
us
that
you
don't
see
that
any
longer.
That
means
you're
not
servicing
your
position
right
anymore.
BB
That
means
you
need
to
be
removed
from
your
position
and
have
someone
in
another
position
of
higher
spiritual,
spiritual,
emotional
and
mental
cultivation
to
make
those
decisions
for
us
to
people
and
not
people
that
have
self
accumulation
in
their
minds,
and
they
make
these
decisive
decisions
that
affects
so
many
different
people
I'll
need
the
way
throughout
the
time
all
right.
Thank
you
appreciate
it.
BI
I'm
sonya
gray.
I
live
in
a
city
of
Inglewood
I'm
here
and
I'm
here
to
be
thankful
for
a
few
things,
I'm
thankful
for
the
temporary
ordinance,
because
the
temporary
ordinance
did
save
my
life
recently
this
last
month
in
May,
well,
actually
the
beginning
of
June,
so
my
rent
was
increased
to
forty
two
three
four.
Forty
two
point:
three
percent,
which
is
a
four
hundred
and
seventy
five
dollar
increase.
If
the
temporary
ordinance
was
not
in
place,
I
would
have
been
displaced,
so
I'm
so
grateful
that
was
in
place.
BI
So
this
is
what
I,
I
totally
believe
is
balance.
You
mentioned
balance
and
fairness,
so
you
guys
are
in
place
in
power
to
help
us
today
and
in
helping
us
today
that
rent
control
is
very
important
to
save
lives.
I
work
in
the
homeless
population
of
my
housing
locator
and
whether
you
go
I
look
for
housing
all
over,
so
whether
I'm
in
LA
welcome,
Inglewood
or
Albin
Torrance.
It
doesn't
matter
where
I
am
the
rent
is
high
everywhere.
BI
BJ
BI
I
BI
BI
Exactly
which
saved
me
right
because
I
was
in
putting
put-
and
this
was
happening
just
what
six
months
ago,
I
would
have
had
no
help.
Uplift
Inglewood
has
some
attorneys
come
help.
Me
I'm
grateful
for
Antonio
I'm
grateful
for
Katie
I'm
grateful
for
July
I'm
grateful
for
all
the
people
up
in
Google,
because
I
know
when
they
come
up
here
and
when
we
come
up
here
and
we
say
anything
about
it's
like
oh,
but
both
sides
is
working
for
one
good
cause
and
that
what
good
cause
is
rent
control.
BI
Should
it
be
8%
hard
because
I
work
in
the
house
in
population
up
a
see
that
we
did,
we
did
a
homeless
count
and
when
we
do
a
homeless
count,
that
means
we
have
people
at
nights
on
going
and
insurance
is
going
in
parts
going
to
car
count
intense
who's
in
the
tents.
This
is
how
we
come
out.
What
the
homeless
population
is
and
has
increased,
16
percent
since
last
year.
So
you
do,
we
need
it.
I
know
only
Laura's
gonna
come
in
here
and
say:
no,
we
don't
everything
needs
to
be
controlled.
BI
That's
why
we
have
laws.
So
if
I
run
the
red
light,
what's
gonna
happen,
so
we
all
need
to
control.
We
need
something
in
place.
It
should
be
as
low
as
a
CPI.
Hey,
that's
why
we're
here
we're
asking
you
she'll,
be
five
percent.
That
would
be
great
for
all
of
us.
Should
it
be
fair
and
balanced.
Absolutely
so
that's
why
I'm
here
I'm
here
to
say,
and
we
don't
have
something
in
place,
then
we
will
have
a
population
of
I
worked
all
my
life
and
I.
I
L
L
California
courts
have
repeatedly
upheld
the
legality
of
rent
rollback
provisions.
Court
cases
have
been
brought
against
the
cities
of
Santa
Monica
East,
Palo,
Alto,
West,
Hollywood
and
Berkeley.
Their
rent
rollback
provisions
were
all
found
to
be
valid.
Brent
rollback
provisions
are
upheld
so
long
as
the
base
rent
date.
In
this
case,
October
of
2017
can
be
reasonably
determined
to
reflect
general
market
conditions.
More
recently,
the
cities
of
Richmond
and
Mountain
View
had
rollback
provisions
of
approximately
fourteen
and
seventeen
months
respectively.
L
The
October
27
rent
rollback
provision
is
justified
because
uplift
raised
the
issue
of
rent
control
and
elevated
the
problems
that
tenants
face
with
their
housing
with
the
filing
of
their
petition
that
serves
as
a
legally
justifiable
date
for
the
city
to
tie
a
rollback
provision
to,
and
the
city
should
consider
protecting
its
tenants
from
past
rent
couching.
Thank
you.
Thank.
I
BJ
Good
afternoon,
council
members
and
mayor
butts,
my
name
is
Elena
zeltser
I'm
here
today
on
behalf
of
UNITE
HERE
Local
11,
that
represents
over
30,000
members
in
Southern
California,
and
we
have
about
3,000
members
who
live
in
Inglewood.
Our
members
work
in
hotels
in
the
airport
and
sports
and
entertainment
venues
in
the
city
of
Inglewood
and
this
areas
they
work
very
hard
at
the
forefront
of
welcoming
visitors
into
Los
Angeles
and
into
Inglewood
to
create
welcoming
environments
for
them.
But
at
the
same
time
our
members
cannot
afford
to
live
in
the
city.
BJ
They
bear
the
brunt
of
the
displacement
brought
on
by
the
the
wave
of
development
that's
happening
in
the
city.
Currently,
we
commend
you
on
taking
up
this
serious
issue
of
rent
control,
it's
in
a
very
important
issue
and
it'll
protect
people's
lives
and
taking
the
step
forward
and
proposing
this
ordinance.
BJ
There
are
really
good
things
about
it,
but
I
do
want
to
say.
We
would
like
for
you
to
consider
some
of
the
I
want
to
echo
some
of
the
things
that
have
been
said
here
today
to
consider,
as
in
addition
to
the
ordinance
one
would
be
the
rent
board
that
people
have
been
asking
for
I
think
it's
a
really
great
way
to
manage
the
process
and
to
improve
trust
and
transparency
with
a
community,
the
renters
and
homeowners
as
well.
BJ
I
I
I
BJ
BJ
BK
So
as
for
my
mom's
I,
actually
didn't
know
much
about
this
rent
control,
and
so
she
actually
brought
it
up
to
me
and
a
lot
of
the
committee's
and
everyone
actually
Yvonne
have
helped
us
out
greatly
and
knowing
about
all
these
new
policies
coming
in,
but
I
think
the
8%
is
extremely
too
high.
Personally
I.
Think
medium,
like
4
to
5%
would
be
extremely
convenient
for
everyone
in
the
community.
I
think
and
also
I
think
these
property
owners
that
are
now
coming
in
feel
like
they
don't
they're,
not
really
engaged
with
the
residents.
BK
You
know,
they're
I've
never
seen
my
landlord
and
then
now
our
property
managers
in
my
building,
but
he
doesn't
know
much
about
what
he's
doing
and
there's
been
so
many
attacks
from
these
property
managers.
You
know
so
I
think
there
should
always
be
that
that
fairness
within
these
landlords
and
the
residents
you
know
to
come
together,
not
just
kind
of
bash
one
another
and
saying
hey.
You
know
we're
gonna
raise
this
rent
and
it's
it's
just
crazy.
BK
Now,
I
think
you
know
and
now
since
of
course,
you
guys
are
in
this
position
in
which
God
has
put
you
in
to
help
us.
You
know
and
that's
why
I
think
we're
all
here
today,
just
to
kind
of
let
our
voices
be
heard
and
not
really
to
bash
you
or
anyone
here,
but
just
to
kind
of
let
you
guys
know
that
we
need
some
help.
You
know
and
we're
all
trying
to
succeed
in
life.
You
know
the
life,
liberty,
pursuit
and
pursuit
of
happiness.
BK
You
know,
but
I
feel
like
just
as
these
investors
and
these
capital
capitalist
people
are
coming
in
I
feel
like
we
should,
as
residents
have
the
opportunity
to
succeed
in
life
as
well
and
just
keep
doing
a
great
job
and
I
think
mr.
butts
I
see
you
here
in
around
a
community.
You
know
so
it's
great
to
see
you
involved
as
well
and
to
see
someone
in
such
high
power
around
a
community.
So
congratulations
thank.
BA
A
unit
complex
that
was
recently
well
not
recently
late
2018
early
this
year,
it
was
purchased
for
2.75
million
dollars
and
the
landlord
told
me
that
he
was
going
to
change
out
the
windows
do
the
roofs
none
of
that
has
happened,
except
for
he
has
worked
on
one
of
the
units
and
then
raised
its
2-bedroom
2-bath.
It
raised
it
to
like
$3,000
when
somebody
moved
out
and
then
recently,
within
the
past
five
seven
days
he's
been
asking
tenants.
BA
How
much
would
it
take
for
people
to
move
out
and
when
people
have
not
given
him
a
number,
he
then
gave
us
all
notices
for
a
5%
increase.
So
to
that
point,
I
feel
like
today
and
several
times,
I
hear
some
anecdotal
and
some
anecdotal
information
where
it's
like.
Oh
these
landlords,
they
can't
fix
their
buildings.
If
they
don't
do
that,
but
the
truth
of
the
matter
is
2.75
million
I'm.
Sorry,
you
could
fix
the
roof.
All
of
this
happened
like
I,
said.
All
a
lot
of
this
is
happening
because
of
the
stadium.
BA
People
were
not
filling
these
rooms
four
to
five
years
ago.
On
this
particular
issue,
particularly
the
real
estate
associations
and
property
owners-
not
mom-and-pop
necessarily,
but
definitely
not
the
corporations-
we're
not
coming
in
here
talking
about.
We
want
to
help
the
community.
We
want
to
increase
the
number
of
units
they
didn't
want
to
do
that
junk
six
years
ago,
when
we
could
have
used
it
at
a
reasonable
rate.
So
to
that
point,
I
actually
do
think
a
person
is
too
high.
I
came
a
couple
months
ago
and
said,
or
weeks
ago
said.
AW
BA
To
us
or
something
but
to
that
point
because,
for
instance,
my
rent
increased
a
hundred
percent
over
a
two
and
a
half
three
years.
So
when
you
have
such
a
high
increase,
that
really
affects
my
ability
to
do
things.
Save
money
just
do
the
things
that
I
need
to
do
in
life.
Try
to
create
businesses
all
these
different
things,
but
to
me
it
seems
like
you
would
want
to
do
a
gradual
increase.
That's
why
I'm
saying
2%
you
go
slowly,
you
let
the
people
in
the
community-
that's
been
here!
BA
That's
lived
here
for
decades
and
generations
build
up
you.
Let
them
figure
out
how
they're
gonna
do
things
you,
let
them
like
save
their
money
and
buy
their
next
door
there,
the
house
or
the
apartment
complex
or
make
a
co-op,
but
when
it's
so
drastic
and
these
corporations
can
come
in
and
swipe
the
community
from
the
people,
it's
so
detrimental
and
I
would
hate
for
Inglewood
to
be
a
place
years
from
now.
That
was
like.
A
I
BA
I
BA
Like
I
said
to
person,
because
you
have
to
do
a
gradual
for
the
community
for
the
incomes
in
this
community
and
for
the
people
here,
you
don't
want
to
lose
the
community
two
percent,
a
gradual
two-person,
like
you,
have
to
work
with
the
people
that
have
supported
and
create
like
voted
for
you,
people,
like
is
initially
when
I
first
went
to
Inglewood
I
voted
for
some
of
you
all
here
today,
I
cannot
say.
I
will
do
that
in
the
future.
Okay,.
BA
AT
Here,
on
behalf
of
the
hard-working
taxpayers,
the
low
income,
the
about
to
be
homeless,
so
when
you
guys
establish
in
1908
okay,
your
mission
statement
says
right
here
is
to
deliver
outstanding
services
to
enhance
the
residential
quality
of
life
within
our
community.
Comma
economic
vitality
of
our
businesses
and
entertainment
of
our
visitors
is
in
your
mission
statement.
What
we
see
right
now
in
the
last
two
years
is
the
entertainment
of
your
visitors.
I,
don't
see
the
quality
of
life
for
Englewood
residents
becoming
any
better.
You
have
more
increase
of
of
homelessness
right.
AT
AT
AT
It's
fully
funded
by
who
you
know
the
printers
are
been
outright.
You
know
it's
printing
dirty
toner
printer
right.
How
much
is
a
printer,
maybe
$14,000
commercial
printer.
You
guys
got
three
point:
two
billion
dollars
for
this
stadium.
Okay,
you
got
Yola
that
paid
you
nine
million
dollars,
Gustavo
Dudamel
paid
you
nine
million
dollars
for
the
spaces
and
now
tell
me
I'm
wrong,
sir.
So
as
we
move
right
right,
but
the
budget
doesn't
lie
because
you
have
Yolo.
AT
Okay,
so
they're
they're
lying
then
frank
gehry
is
lying
basically
lying,
but
that's
not
in
the
book.
Okay,
of
course,
it's
not
in
the
book
because
people's
not
actually
read
and
find
out,
what's
really
happening.
So
you
don't
want
people
to
do
that.
So
what
I'm
saying
you
mark
ridley-thomas
I,
don't
know
what
school
of
misappropriation
that
you
guys
went
to,
but
it
has
to
stop.
We
ask
you
to
respect
the
working
class
to
actually
show
something
and
fund
the
employment
center
across
the
street.
AT
Then
we
can
believe
you
about
the
housing,
because,
if
you're
not
encouraging
the
Inglewood,
the
working
class
Inglewood
and
in
lieu
of
the
corporations,
that's
already
funding
your
pockets.
It's
not
fair
to
the
people
year
after
year
to
hear
the
same
sob
story
and
then,
on
top
of
that
we
have
law
enforcement.
That
is
just
as
dumb
as
a
box
of
bricks
shooting
us
down
on
top
of
that.
So
what
else
is
next?
Can
we
have
some
visible,
viable
changes
with
the
millions
of
dollars
that
you
guys
have
sitting
there
with
just
the
little
things?
AT
Then
we
don't
have
to
come
in
droves.
To
tell
you
that
a
percent
increase,
it's
too
much
common
sense
should
tell
you.
You
know
what
my
working
class
people
they
need
a
break,
but
if
you're
disconnected
and
you
eat
well
and
your
house
is
paid
for
and
you
drive
a
fancy
car,
why
should
you
care
so,
let's
see
next
year,
if
you
actually
see
a
difference?
Okay,
I,
don't
want
to
come
here
and
curse
you
out,
but
I
want
to
tell
you
to
do
the
right
thing,
all
right,
buts,
thank.
BM
Thank
you,
Oh
Liz,
Weaver
district
2
bless
you
Alex
Padilla.
This
council
has
done
a
magnificent
job
of
working
for
the
city
of
Inglewood
and
I.
Know
everybody's
got
their
faults,
you're
not
perfect,
and
nobody
is
but
you're
doing
the
best.
You
know
how
and
I
think
with
some
input
from
the
from
the
community
the
know-how
might
increase
and
with
regard
to
this
ordinance
with
for
rent
control,
I
think
what's
happened
is
we're
getting
a
lot
of
outside
investors
coming
in
who
are
not
invested
in
the
city.
BM
They
don't
really
give
a
rip
about
what
happens
in
the
city
after
they
get
their
dole
and
go
off
now.
There
is
something
called
the
opportunity
zones
that
a
lot
of
us
don't
know
about.
That
would
be
of
a
tremendous
benefit
to
the
citizens
of
Englewood.
If
they
did
know
about
them,
I
don't
know
if
you
guys
have
looked
into
it
at
all
but
honey.
It
is
a
wealth
of
money
that
could
come
into
this
city
and
to
the
pockets
of
its
residents,
so
check.
A
BM
BM
So
they
can
apply
online,
but
you
like
that,
because
that
would
make
it
so
much
easier
and
if
you
need
to
look
at
cases
properties
case-by-case,
then
that
would
help
with
it.
That
would
help
to
look
at
them
case
by
case,
but
you're
gonna
need
a
really
really
big
rent
control
board,
because
I
think
you're
gonna
get
a
lot
of
people
from
the
neighborhood.
I
BM
Their
issues
and-
and
you
know,
I've
seen
as
a
realtor
I've
seen
gouging
both
from
the
tenants
and
from
landlords.
So
rent
control
should
be
implemented.
I
fully
agree
with
that,
but
how
its
implemented
might
be
on
it
have
to
be
on
a
case-by-case
basis
with
the
rent
control
board.
That
board
should
be
balanced.
BN
And
I
was
trying
to
present
my
concern
to
the
other
terminal
to
the
mayor
office.
I
really
really
appreciate
that
my
son
is
autistic
and
I'm.
Trying
to
just
you
know,
talk
to
you
guys
regarding
these
kids,
it's
very
hard
to
change
anything
in
this
kid's
life,
even
with
my
feet,
with
my
breasts
he's
just
you
know,
he
couldn't
even
understand
he
says,
take
it
out.
So
you
know.
If
rent
is
too
much,
we
have
to
move
from
that
place.
BN
So
you
know
it
is
going
to
be
really
really
hard
to
express
or
convince
him
about
those
things.
So
I
really
want
you
guys
to
other
strengths
to
deal
with
this
issue.
I
have
like
three
points
to
make
about
fair
tenants.
I
was,
in
my
apartment,
for
the
last
almost
18
years
were
very,
very
responsible
to
the
owner.
BN
Thinking
we're
doing
a
lot
of
maintenance
by
ourselves
who
are
keeping
the
security
of
the
building
were
very
responsible
and
rent
used
to
be
increased
every
two
years
once
two
years,
like
three
percent
around
three
percent:
okay.
Well,
we
didn't
come
to
the
City
Council
meeting
and
about
that
because
fair
is
fair,
but
we
came
here
when
it's
too
much.
BN
BN
BN
Remember
the
manager,
as
that
you
know,
department
owner
already
paid
off
the
loan,
and
you
know
whenever
we
try
to
ask
for
any
kind
of
maintenance.
He
was
telling
us
that
you
know
it's
not
the
concern
so
I
mean
you
know.
On
most
cases
we
are
very
responsible.
We
understand
how
the
property
owners
go
through,
but
fair
is
fair.
So
please
help
us
to
stay
for
our
disability
community
also
understand.
BN
J
J
I
F
You
Mary,
we
had
a
number
of
different
closed
session
items.
The
first
one
was
in
sus
versus
the
city
of
Inglewood
LA
Superior
Court
case
number,
19,
PRC,
V,
0,
0,
4,
3
3.
As
to
that
matter,
discussion
was
held
direction.
You
and
the
staff
next
matter
was
for
a
long
burst.
City
of
Inglewood,
LA
Superior
Court
case
number
BC,
one
six,
six,
four
five
for
that
one
was
a
update
on
that
matter,
and
discussion
was
held
and
no
further
action
taken.
F
J
I
AL
AB
J
I
We
can't
have
a
city
where
investors
have
leverage
over
long-term
residents.
We
can't
have
a
city
where
prosperity
for
some
comes
entirely
at
the
expense
of
others.
I
certainly
believe
that
government
doesn't
government,
does
not
have
the
right
to
arbitrarily
decide
how
private
persons
operate
a
business
or
price
their
product.
However,
their
instances
in
which
government
does
set
standards
for
the
public
safety
and
welfare.
The
government
requires
airbags
to
be
built
into
cars
and
fryer
sprinkler
systems
that
you'll
be
built
into
buildings
and
it
increases
their
cost.
I
Providing
housing
is
different
from
selling
appliances,
clothing,
office
supplies
or
jewelry
people
will
purchase
these
items
when
they
can
afford
them
or
will
do
without
them
until
they
can.
Housing
is
different.
First,
the
demand
for
affordable
housing
far
exceeds
supply
and
the
sudden
displacement
of
renters
can
destroy
the
fabric
of
a
family's
life.
Providing
housing
is
a
complex
endeavor.
The
owner
must
maintain
the
property
mediate
disputes
between
tenants
collect
rent
that
is
sometimes
not
paid
on
time
and
attempt
to
make
a
fair
return
on
what,
in
the
end
is
a
business.
I
We
have
to
protect
our
residents
and
that's
what
we
do
here.
We
also
have
to
be
fair
to
the
owners
that
provide
and
maintain
the
most
necessary
and
precious
physical
asset
of
our
any
community
and
that's
affordable
housing.
Now
that
said,
we're
not
going
to
forestall
economic
opportunity
in
order
to
stay
where
we've
always
been
part
of
providing
for
this
community
means
developing
a
healthy
business
tax
space.
We
want
business
in
the
city
and
it
absolutely
includes
real
estate
and
property
management.
I
So
today,
everyone
is
going
to
have
to
give
a
little
we're
all
going
to
give
a
little
so
that
in
return
we
can
all
share
in
the
abundance.
That's
coming
our
way.
I
want
to
make
the
following
motions
based
upon
the
input
that
we've
received
from
the
community
and
to
clean
up
some
things
that
weren't
included
in
the
final
ordinance
one.
A
motion
to
amend,
to
exclude
the
properties
from
the
ordinance
that
are
located
at
435,
West
region
and
629.
I
A
motion
to
amend
the
ordinance
to
allow
really
real
increases
of
up
to
only
5%
a
year
or
the
or
or
the
CPI,
if
greater,
with
no
relocation
allowance
to
amortize,
with
no
relocation
allowance
and
to
amortize
repairs
in
excess
of
$10,000.
Until
until
a
100%
of
costs
are
recouped,
the
owners
may
have
an
increase
of
8%
estimate.
I
Three,
a
motion
to
amend
that
units
renting
for
less
than
80
percent
of
the
average
rent
for
a
unit
of
similar
configuration
according
to
rent,
cafe,
Shelby
Lyle,
an
increase
of
8
percent
in
a
12-month
period,
with
no
relocation
allowance
until
rents,
reach
average
market
value.
Again.
What
this
is
saying,
this
does
not
penalize
the
mom
and
pops
that
have
kept
their
rents
below
market.
I
For
a
motion
to
amend
that
relocation
we
paid
to
any
tenant
removed
through
a
no-fault
eviction.
If
that
tenant
has
been
a
resident
for
two
years
or
more
five,
a
motion
to
amend
that
the
relocation
threshold
shall
be
rental
increases
5%
or
the
CPI.
Whichever
amount
is
greater
and
with
that
I'm
gonna
turn
it
over
to
Councilman
Morales.
AB
Thank
you
and
I
would
like
to
do
our
comments
after
we
make
the
friendly
amendments
bring
those
mayor.
They
go
right
in
line
we're
talking
about.
One
of
the
ones
that
I
wanted
to
talk
about
is
the
where
the
folks
that
had
come,
for
instance,
the
owners
that
want
it
to
be
approved
that
they
can
go
up
to
8%.
G
You
mr.
mayor
I
just
want
to
applaud
you
and
the
rest
of
council,
because
this
is
something
we
needed
to
do,
and
the
additions
to
this
moratorium
will
make
a
lot
of
people
happy.
We
can't
please
everyone,
like
you
say,
gonna,
be
some
give
and
take
to
make
this
thing
work
so
far
as
I'm
concerned.
This
is
a
goal
for
me.
A
I
I
Because
they
enter
into
an
agreement
to
give
$10,000
relocations
to
everyone,
and
so
basically
what
they
did
was.
Basically
they
either
move
the
tenants
into
apartments
they
had
rehabilitated
in
Hyde
Park
gave
a
ten
thousand
dollar
relocation
allowance
or
the
tenant
stayed
knowing
that
large
increases
were
coming
because
they're
totally
rehabbing
the
buildings.
BO
I
BO
BO
Look
I,
gotta
tell
you
folks,
I
really
appreciate
everybody
that
came
out
today.
You
know
the
tenants,
the
property
owners.
You
know
this
is
as
I
was
telling
my
my
wife
and
kids
throughout
the
week
and
throughout
this
whole
process.
This
is
one
that
really
wears
on
you,
because
you
realize
that
you
know
this
is
gonna
impact,
so
many
people's
lives
and
there's
other
things
that
we
do
that
impact
lives.
BO
But
this
is
one
word,
you
know
folks
really
come
and
you
and
you
see,
and
you
get
to
hear
their
stories
about
being
displaced
or
being
homeless,
and
then
you
also
hear
from
property
owners
to
say
hey.
This
is
our
investment.
This
is
our
legacy
for
our
families,
our
kids.
For
our
future.
We
made
a
sacrifice
and-
and
you
know
we
feel
like
you
know-
you
guys-
are
taking
it
away
from
us.
BO
Well,
that's
not
what
our
intent
is,
it's
everything,
but
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
looking
out
for
the
property
owners
to
continue
to
you
know
have
their
investment
to
continue
to
provide
for
their
families
and
to
leave
the
the
properties
as
a
legacy
for
them.
If
that's
what
they
desire,
but
we
also
have
to
look
for
our
residents,
our
folks
that
live
here
to
make
sure
they'll
continue
to
have
affordable
housing
place.
They
can
call
home
or
they're
not
worried
every
month
or
every
few
months
that
the
rents
gonna
get.
BO
This
is
that
in
the
middle
move
that
we
hope
folks
will
embrace
it
know
it's
gonna,
be
a
hot
topic
of
discussion
throughout
the
community,
but
I'm
thankful
that
you
know
the
mayor
and
his
wisdom,
leadership
and
and
and
reaching
out
to
other
folks
to
get
input
about
this.
You
know
it.
This
is
something
that
you
just
don't
do
overnight,
so
that's
why
we
continued
it
for
60
days
to
really
chew
on
it.
So
with
that,
you
know,
you
know
again,
I
want
to
thank
everybody.
They
came
out.
I
Okay
and
then
just
so
for
clarification,
everything
else
in
the
ordinance
stays,
but
the
max
really
increases
5%
or
CPI.
Whichever
is
greater.
Eight
percent
is
allowed
with
no
relocation
allotment
if
the
if
a
comparable
unit
is
priced
at
80
percent
or
below,
like
market
rate
CPI
or
the
C,
no,
no
wait,
we've
already
got
it
in
less
or
less
the.
If
the
unit
is
parked
at
80
percent
or
below
of
market
rate,
you
can
go
to
eight
percent
for
that
until
you
reach
81
percent,
all
right,
then
you're
back
to
five
percent.
I
Okay,
the
relocation
now
only
comes
in
is,
if
you
do
a
Just
Cause
eviction
for
anyone
that
has
been
a
tenant
for
two
years
or
more,
and
so
therefore
the
relocation
allowances
only
come
in.
If
you
do
a
Just
Cause
eviction,
if
you
live
there
for
two
years
or
more,
there's
no
longer
the
capacity
to
charge,
someone
more
than
five
percent
or
the
CPI
and
now
doesn't
do
you
want
to
do.

AB
Not
leftover,
I
didn't
get
to
come
in
there
and
I
wanted
to
say
thank
you
for
such
a
great
leadership.
Job
on
the
rental,
ordinance
and
I
wanted
to
say
that
you
know
this
is
a
product
of
the
process.
You
know
so
many
people
said
you
know
we
they
were
not
included,
they,
they
didn't
have
a
chance
to
speak.
They
wanted
to
get
in
a
big
room
and
participate,
and
you
know
we
didn't
I
didn't
I.
AB
What
I
wish
they
would
have
heard
was
the
fact
that
they
played
a
big
role
in
the
process
throughout
every
meeting
and
every
hearing
we
had
I
want
to
say
that
you
know
it
showed
with
your
amendments
throughout
the
process,
how
much
it
impacted
your
thought
process,
both
from
owners
and
from
renters.
You
know
this
just
wasn't
easy.
It
wasn't
easy
to
balance
everything
and
I've
gotten.
So
many
questions
in
my
community
in
terms
of
Believe,
It
or
Not
from
owners
mom-and-pop
owners
that
needed
to
balance
out.
AB
You
know
what
they
can
do
to
hold
on
to
their
value.
Their
big
fear
was
if
they
cannot
charge
a
certain
amount
of
rent,
their
property
value
would
go
down
or
stymie,
and
you
know
I
believe
you
know
that
that
you
know
some
impact
that
they're
absorbing
you
know.
However,
the
owners
also
gain
so
much
from
so
much
of
the
development
that
came
here
to
this
city,
just
the
impact
and
completely
on
their
on
their
property
value
alone
they
have
gained
and,
at
the
same
time,
the
renters.
AB
There
were
some
renters
one
particular
gentleman
that
we
get
an
a
percent
increase,
but
our
property
has
not
improved
8%,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
their
surroundings,
their
amenities
when
they
cross
the
street
and
everything
is
improving
around
them.
That
is
what's
improving
and,
and
so
those
are
things
that
completely
go
to
the
core
of
what's
happening
to
our
economy.
AB
Finding
the
middle
balance
was
a
chore
and
whether
we've
done
it
well,
who
knows
I
believe
we
tried
our
best
I,
believe
it's
a
step
in
the
right
direction
and
I
I
can
tell
you
that
this
council
is
strong
enough,
that
if
we
need
to
fix
something,
we
will
go
back
and
do
it.
I
know
that
so
there
was
a
lot
talked
about,
and
you
know
a
lot
of
things
our
point.
Everything
seems
to
be
at
fault.
They
say
the
stadium
because
of
the
stadium.
This
happened
because
of
the
stadium.
This
happened.
AB
AB
Probably
400
students
a
year
for
the
last
X
number
of
years
has
nothing
to
do
with
with
the
stadium
it,
basically
as
an
evolution
of
everything
from
charter
schools
to
folks
movie
now
just
equal
transition
people-
just
that's
just
what's
happening
and
I
just
wanted
to
point-
that
out
to
say
that
the
stadium
is
really
absorbing
the
blunt
of
so
much
and
we
are
trying
to
balance
it,
but
today
the
owners
and
the
renters
each
paid
a
little
bit
and
the
owners
and
the
renters
each
gained
a
little
bit.
So
those
are
my
comments.
AB
G
I
just
feel
so
proud.
Today,
as
a
member
of
this
council,
I
mean
we
were
listening,
the
mayor
was
definitely
listening,
so
it's
almost
like
he
could
hear
my
thoughts
into
my
head,
because
these
people
came
to
us
some
help.
The
landlords
they
came
to
us
warned
us
to
make
sure
that
we
treat
them
fair
with
this
new
ordinance.
I
think
everybody
got
a
little
something
and
it
should
all
not.
Nobody
should
go
away
man
so
other
than
that
I'm.
So
grateful
for
everybody
who
came
out.
You
made
a
difference
by
coming
out.
BO
Mayor-
and
you
know
it
just
goes
to
folks-
that
said,
we're
not
open-minded.
We've
made
up
our
mind
before
we
get
up
here
well,
today
was
proof
that
that's
not
the
case
we
heard
people's
plight.
Listened
changes
were
made,
we're
presenting
the
best
that
we
can
present
both
regarding
the
renters
and
the
property
owners.
BO
This
is
something
that
we
do
that's
right
for
the
city
of
Englewood,
not
for
anybody
else.
It's
what's
right
is
right
for
our
residents
and
our
business
owners.
So
again,
thank
you,
everybody
that
came
up
and
and
voiced
your
your
thoughts
about
this
very
sensitive
issue.
That
being
said,
a
mayor,
fewer
clothes
and
the
memory
of
a
long
time
in
wood,
business
owner
who
started
off
as
a
firefighter
here
in
the
city
of
Englewood,
when
it
was
the
Inglot
fire
department.
BO
BO
I
I
will
tell
you
definitely
that
this
was
a
very
long,
arduous
process.
I
want
to
compliment.
Melanie
exactly
were
sensitive
to
the
manager
in
the
mayor.
She
did
the
research
that
allowed
me
to
craft
the
initial
set
of
parameters.
It
was
a
lot
of
work
and
then
the
input
we
got
over
time
during
the
moratorium
and
definitely
today
led
to
where
we
are
now
council.
I
Morales,
said
something
that
I
thought
was
so
profound
that
it
isn't
just
the
property
owners
that
have
gained
from
the
evolution
of
the
city
and
it's
not
just
the
residents,
some
of
which
that
haven't
been
employed
in
years.
They
gain
from
this
just
living
here.
The
amenities
that
will
be
available
to
you
that
you
no
longer
have
to
go
to
Los
Angeles,
Santa,
Monica,
Malibu,
torrents,
Manhattan,
Beach,
the
things
you'll
be
able
to
leave
your
home
and
be
to
three
minutes
at
the
most
away
from
the
change
in
your
quality
of
life.
I
That's
worth
a
little
bit
more
for
the
cost
of
living.
You're
gonna,
you're
gonna
use
less
gas.
You
can
walk
to
things
as
opposed
to
drive
to
them
and
I
really
want
to
come
in
councilor
Marella's
cuz
he's
the
first
one
to
make
that
connection,
and
so
you
know
we
have
a
lot
to
be
proud
of
in
the
city
and
everybody
is
gaining
and
we're
gonna
make
sure
and
I
believe.
