My
name
is
Frances
Taylor
I'm,
a
25-year
resident
of
Englewood
and
I
respectfully
request
that
the
mayor
and
council
members
address
the
following
questions
for
the
community
before
voting
on
the
mayor's
proposal
to
freeze
rents
number
one.
What
is
the
effective
date
of
the
proposed
5%
limit
on
rent
increases?
Are
there
any
retroactive
provisions
of
the
proposal?
For
example,
rent
increased
notices
already
set
out
with
feature
effective
dates.
Next,
how
was
the
average
men
of
1275
for
apartments
in
Englewood
compared
to
$1,900,
so
a
delhi,
county
derived
or
calculated?
C
What
was
that
for
one-bedroom
two-bedroom,
three
bedrooms
or
four,
all
of
them?
What
happens
after
45
days?
Does
the
city
of
Englewood
intend
to
extend
the
rent
increase
restrictions
or
make
the
measure
permanent?
Next,
when
the
city
tenant
day
case,
will
the
property
owner
be
able
to
increase
the
market
rent?
Must
there
be
a
reason
required
to
evict
existing
tenants
compared
to
the
current
law,
which
allows
our
or
to
evict
with
no
cause
of
Ixion's?
Will
they
be
a
moratorium
on
future
water
and
fast
fee
increases?
Department
was
during
the
writ
restrictions.
C
C
We
increased,
arrived
minimum
wage
increases,
for
example,
in
many
instances,
increased
greater
than
10
percent
for
small
business
owners
in
the
Kelly
County,
as
of
June
1,
that
says
the
limit
on
increases
applied
to
recently
constructed
properties
or
all
properties,
and
finally,
does
a
written
crease
limit
apply
when
capital
improvements
must
be
made
to
an
existing
property.
That
is
a
new
roof.
Copper
plumbing,
for
example,
and
can
additional
increases
be
executed.

Hello:
everyone,
my
name-
is
Jelani
Hendricks
organizers
with
uplift,
Inglewood
and
I'm
here
to
speak
on
council
initiatives.
C1
I
would
like
to
say
that
we
appreciate
that
the
City
Council
is
turning
their
attention
towards
the
growing
housing
crisis
occurring
here
in
the
city
of
Inglewood,
and
we
feel
it's
a
very
important
first
step
towards
providing
winters
in
a
city
with
real
protections.
However,
the
urgency
ordinance
does
not
go
far
enough
for
two
reasons:
number
one.
F
It
is
only
temporary
in
nature
and
it
doesn't
include
just
cause
of
victim
protections,
while
many
tenants
in
the
city
will
benefit
from
the
temporary
limit
on
rent
increases.
If
the
ordinance
expires
with
no
permanent
protections
in
place,
renters
will
once
again
faced
a
crushing
housing
costs
that
gripped
the
city
and,
in
fact
many
tens.
Actually
many
tenants
actually
may
be
at
risk
of
eviction.
F
F
D
G
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Hazara
price
and
also
appreciate
the
console
for
addressing
this
problem.
I
grew
up
in
Englewood.
My
mother
had
a
business
for
over
20
years
on
Market
Street,
currently
I'm
a
property
owner
who
strongly
agrees
that
this
45
day
ordinance
does
not
go
far
enough.
I
hope
you
are
really
listening
to
folks
when
they
tell
you
that
the
Rin
is
going
up.
20,
30
percent
or
more
I
am
a
hone.
G
A
home
owner
and
I
would
be
outraged
if
the
mortgage
company
did
that
to
me
and
I'm,
not
sure
if
I
could
survive
it.
There
are
businesses
here
that
have
survived
the
lean
years
and
who
are
very
excited
about
the
Rams
coming
in
and
all
the
wonderful
things
that
are
happening
in
our
community,
but
now
they're
being
priced
out
home
owners
I
mean
renters
being
displaced,
all
because
of
price
gouging
I
mean
we
have
to
feel
for
everybody,
not
just
the
interests
of
big
developers.
G
This
is
our
community,
the
faces
of
our
people,
and
we
have
to
take
their
interest
and
concern
developers.
Businesses,
homeowners,
renters,
should
all
be
able
to
co-exist
and
to
thrive.
It's
time
out
it's
time
out
for
assessing,
if
there's
a
problem,
we
are
in
crisis
mode
and
we
need
to
do
something
to
project
our
community.
I
will
continue
to
do
the
work
and
support
my
community
and
to
some
real
tangible
solutions
are
reached.
Thank
thank.
H
D
I
Couldn't
sew
ditto
to
what
she
just
said?
I
was
so
happy
yesterday
when
I
did
discover
the
moratorium
and
I
want
to.
Thank
you
for
that,
and
thank
you
for
your
efforts
to
help
the
renters
in
the
city.
Like
I,
said:
I've
lived
in
the
city
of
Englewood
for
eight
years,
but
I've
lived
in
the
area.
My
whole
life
and
I
had
the
same
concerns
that
have
been,
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
noticed
on
this
moratorium
on
the
first
page
under
the
discussion.
I
I
It
really
is
a
struggle
for
them.
So
I
can
feel
it
and
to
see
it
through
their
eyes,
but
with
my
remaining
time,
I'd
actually
like
to
ask
you
a
question
of
because
I
guess.
After
all,
this
time,
I
should
know
but
I'm
not
really
sure
how,
if,
if
I
want
to
interact
with
you
as
a
mayor
and
the
city
council,
what
is
the
best
way
to
do
that?
Is
it
to
come
here
to
these
meetings
and
come
up
in
front
of
the
microphones
and
speak
to
you
or
email?
I
I
D
J
So
they
left
so
I'm
here
to
express
how
sad
I
am
as
a
first-generation
immigrant
having
my
dream,
love
of
the
community,
but
the
only
one
of
my
seven
one
to
give
back
because
of
the
rent
increase.
He
left
she
left
in
January.
The
thing
is:
how
can
we
help
our
community
to
have
that
transparency
that,
after
we
elected
the
official
that
we
have
a
way
of
connect,
I
thank
God
for
the
uplift
Inglewood
and
the
faith,
faith
centers,
who
have
been
helped
through?
J
My
church
Inglewood
first
and
my
pastor
to
be
able
to
inform
of
how
important
the
crises,
housing
and
all
other
issue
important
to
me
as
a
resident
of
Inglewood
for
41
years,
I
pray
that
we
need
to
move
forward
and
have
an
open
way
to
be
proud
when
the
stadium
come
and
I.
Thank
you
for
Shay
in
how
to
help
us
to
help
our
community.
Thank
you.
Thank.
D
K
Hi,
my
name
is
Tiffany
Wallace
I'm,
a
longtime
resident
of
Englewood,
and
you
know
I
I
just
want
to
say
just
a
statistic
that
65%
of
Englewood
residents
are
renters
is
alarming
and
the
5%
that's
being
done.
It's
not
enough.
Most
of
Englewood
voted
to
support
prop
10.
Now
it
didn't
get
passed
by
the
entire
state,
but
I
feel
like
the
council
sees
the
writing
on
the
wall.
K
This
city
is
made
up
of
renters
and
the
renters
support,
rent
control
and
want
rent
control,
and
although
it's
important
for
us
to
step
in
this
direction
of
having
rent
control,
what
is
being
done
is
not
enough.
We're
little
people
are
literally
facing
homelessness.
It's
not
a
matter
of
piecemeal
45
days,
a
small
penance
here
or
there.
K
People
actually
need
to
have
housing
as
not
just
a
human
right,
but
if
we
can't
get
that
now,
then
we
take
rent
control
because
it's
necessary
for
our
survival,
it's
necessary
for
the
shelter
of
all
human
beings
and
what's
to
prevent
landlords
when
there
is
rent
control
from
not
gouging
us
based
on
the
repairs
that
need
to
be
made
in
our
homes.
This
is
the
kind
of
stuff
that
inward
residents
are
facing.
You
know
what
sister
said
right.
K
There
really
affects
my
heart
because
we
shouldn't
need
to
have
churches
and
nonprofits,
and
you
know,
organizations
that
get
funding
through
foundations,
and
you
know
a
grants
here
and
there
when
people
who
live
their
lives
everyday
dependent
on
those
kinds
of
services,
when
the
government
can
actually
provide
that
on
a
consistent
basis,
and
we
have
the
resources
to
do
so.
So
you
know,
Inglewood
is,
is
my
home
I'm
very
proud
to
be
from
here
very
proud
to
be
a
working
class,
black
woman
from
Inglewood
in
such
a
diverse
City?
K
As
this
that
has
so
many
different
residents
and
I
welcome
a
lot
of
the
new
people
who
are
coming
here.
But
we
shouldn't
have
to
face
homelessness
as
a
result
of
development,
and
we
don't
have
to
that-
is
not
a
choice
that
has
to
be
made
either
capital
investment
or
people
losing
their
homes
or
having
to
move
out
and
go
to
Lancaster
or
someplace
far
away.
Because
of
that,
no,
we
actually
can
live
here.
K
The
residents
can
actually
live
and
thrive
in
this
city,
and
we
are
the
ones
who
comprise
the
city
have
made
it
great
have
lived
through.
The
gangs
have
lived
through
the
90s
and
the
crack
years
and
all
of
the
horrors
that
came-
and
we
came
out
of
that
happy
and
successful,
and
we
need
to
be
able
to
enjoy
the
fruits
of
our
labor
right
now,
and
the
housing
and
the
rent
control
that
is
on
the
books
and
being
discussed
today
is
something
that
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
K
K
D
K
Thank
you
for
explaining
that
the
important
thing
is
that
we
have
rent
control
in
Englewood
and
it
not
just
be
for
5%
in
Los
Angeles,
its
3%.
That
means
in
three
years
that's
close
to
10%
increase.
How
many
people
are
getting
a
3%
increase,
not
a
whole
lot
of
people.
You
know
we
don't
get
that
increase.
K
Many
of
us
make
the
same
paycheck
month
after
month
year,
two
year,
if
we're
lucky
that
we
have
a
job
and
so
to
be
able
to
raise
that
to
be
able
to
raise
the
rent
five
percent-
that's
ten
percent.
In
two
years,
that's
gonna
price.
A
lot
of
people
out,
especially
disabled
people,
especially
elderly
people,
who
are
living
on
a
fixed
income.
K
I
have
a
feeling,
though
many
of
you
are
already
aware
of
many
of
these
things
and
prop
10
was
voted
for,
as
my
sister
said,
but
by
about
sixty
percent
in
Inglewood,
you
have
your
answer.
Inglewood
wants
rent
control.
We
need
rent
control
and
I
feel
like
as
servants
of
us
as
people
who
were
elected
in
your
position
that
you
are
responsible
to
the
constituents.
K
Aviva
would
not
the
developers
who
don't
live
here,
not
the
developers
who
are
trying
to
push
us
out
and
to
be
honest
with
you,
I've
noticed
in
the
last
few
years
there
have
been
some
improvements
in
our
city
and
I'm.
So
glad
about
that.
But
I
can't
help
wondering
if
that's
for
people
who
are
moving
in
here
and
not
for
the
people
who
have
lived
here
and
and
so
that's
and
that's
a
problem.
We
need
to
defend
ourselves
and
protect
ourselves
from
landlords
who
have
raised
the
rent.
K
Fifteen
hundred
dollars
in
one
fell
swoop,
and
even
if
someone
did
they
raised
it,
$75
$100,
$200
I,
don't
have
a
hundred
more
dollars
for
my
rent,
I'm
not
getting
a
raise
every
year.
So
it's
completely
preposterous
to
be
able
to
have
any
of
those
issues
and
I
feel
like
you
all
should
be
I,
hope,
you're
listening
to
what
people
are
telling
you
and
listening
very
carefully
about
this,
because
we
are
human
beings
and
we
speak
up
and
we'll
speak
out
wherever
we
are
I
come
from
Inglewood
all
my
life.
My
family's
lived
here.
K
My
mother
lived
here
until
she
passed
away.
I
come
an
Inglewood
resident
and
I'm,
proud
of
that,
but
I'm
also
willing
to
fight
for
my
city
and
I
hope
that
you
are
also
willing
to
fight
for
your
city
and
fight
for
the
residents
that
live
here.
To
make
sure
that
we
don't
have
a
preposterous
rent
increase.
Is
that
my
time
or
do
I
have
to
I
have
extra.
K
Great
and
ten
more
seconds
so
in
closing,
I
appreciate
all
the
people
coming
here
and
people
listening
to
us
about
about
rent
control,
I,
really
that
this
isn't
just
a
one
ear
and
out
the
other
and
people
already
made
their
decisions,
but
that
you
understand
that
we
need
to
fight
and
you
need
to
represent
the
people
that
voted
for
you
and
to
support
rent
control
in
Englewood.
Thank
you.
L
City
council
community,
my
name
is
Ivan
simony
I'm,
a
real
estate
agent
connected
with
Englewood
I,
know.
What's
going
on
in
the
community,
I
have
a
veteran's
home
right
now,
six
veterans
and
it's
in
foreclosure
and
the
bank
has
taken
it
back:
I'm,
providing
opportunities
for
disabled
seniors
and
World
War,
two
veterans
at
my
facilities
and
I'm
trying
to
get
the
house
back.
What
I
need
is
a
qualified
person
that
could
actually
qualify
for
six
hundred
thousand
dollar
loan
or
a
partnership.
Their.
D
M
Greetings
mayor
butts
leaders
of
our
City
Council.
My
name
is
pastor
Victor
Syrus
Franklin
I
serve
as
the
pastor
of
the
First
United
Methodist
Church
here
in
Inglewood
I've
been
a
resident
here
almost
two
years
about
pointed
by
our
Bishop,
to
serve
our
congregation,
but
our
church
has
been
in
existence
since
1905
and
when
I
came
here,
one
of
the
things
that
I
learned
when
talking
to
my
members,
members
who
live,
have
been
residents
to
this
community,
one
of
whom
is
already
spoken
for
over
40
years.
M
A
D
M
Sir,
we
were
supposed
to
love
our
neighbors,
and
it
was
very
much
relayed
to
me
that
it's
hard
to
love
our
neighbors
if
our
neighbors
are
disappearing.
If
the
neighbors
who
live
next
door
to
me
are
no
longer
here.
The
neighbors
who
lived
above
me
are
no
longer
here.
Those
of
us
who
own
properties
are
missing
our
neighbors
and
we
believe
we're
supposed
to
love
each
other
and
take
care
of
each
other
as
a
community,
and
this
measure
that
you
all
are
working
with
us
with
for
the
next
45
day.
M
That's
a
step
in
the
right
direction,
and
so
we're
a
part
of
the
uplift
Englewood
coalition,
we're
trying
to
find
ways
to
be
a
part
of
helping
to
be
a
source
of
the
solution
towards
really
taking
care
of
one
another
as
a
community,
because
the
people
who
live
here
are
the
City
of
England,
the
people
who've
been
here
for
decades.
The
people
who
are
new,
the
people
are
the
city
of
Englewood
and
exploring
measures
to
find
rent
stabilization.
M
Exploring
measures
that
prevent
gouging
for
renters
are
ways
for
us
to
truly
show
one
another
that
we
love
one
another
again.
I'm,
just
a
pastor
of
a
church
here
in
the
city
of
Englewood
and
we're
just
a
part
of
our
whole
community.
That's
looking
for
ways
for
us
to
really
explore
what's
best
for
our
community,
so
that
Englewood
can
be
a
city,
that's
a
beacon
on
a
hill
leading
this
state
leading
this
nation
and
for
that
matter,
lead
in
this
world.
I'll.
M
Every
person
who
lives
in
the
state
of
California
I
told
them
about
the
city
of
Inglewood,
I
told
them
about
the
community
that
I
live
in
I
told
them
about
the
community
that
our
church
represents,
and
so
I
believe
that
something
is
happening
in
this
city
in
this
state,
where,
if
we
truly
listen
to
one
another,
we
can
create
the
kind
of
city
in
world
that
all
can
follow.
So
again,
we
appreciate
the
efforts
and
we
look
forward
to
continued
dialogue
and
discussion
to
help
to
create
the
city.
That's
for
everyone
in
Inglewood.
Thank
you.

Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Natalie
Minerva
mass
staff
attorney
with
the
legal
aid
foundation
of
Los
Angeles
in
our
South
Los
Angeles
office
and
work
in
our
housing
and
communities.
Work
group
that
works
on
tenants
rights
issues
across
the
county,
laughs
Allah
is
the
largest
free
legal
services
provider
in
Southern
California,
and
in
the
past
several
years,
we've
seen
an
unprecedented
number
of
tenants
coming
to
our
offices
from
Inglewood,
specifically
with
astronomical
rent
increases
that
have
caused
already
countless
numbers
of
community
members
in
this
city
to
be
displaced.
N
So
laughs
was
encouraged
by
the
fact
that
the
City
Council
is
finally
taking
some
steps
to
address
this
long
overdue
issue.
We
are
concerned
about
some
of
the
unintended
consequences
of
the
emergency
ordinance
that
has
been
proposed,
namely
that
the
current
state
of
it
still
allows
for
landlords
to
evict
tenants
through
other
means,
such
as
30
or
60
day
notices
to
vacate.
N
But
we
would
like
to
highlight
that
the
the
tenants
that
are
impacted
by
these
issues
are
the
most
vulnerable
tenants
within
the
county.
You
know,
we've
seen,
we've
been
doing
a
number
of
clinics
in
the
community
here
and
we've
seen
many
tenants
coming
in
with
not
just
seventy
percent
rent
increases,
but
multiple
rent
increases
over
a
period
of
several
months.
Many
of
our
clients
are
elderly,
disabled
limited
English
Proficient
and
have
been
living
in
this
city
for
with
multiple
generations
of
family
members
for
over
40
years.
N
O
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Jonathan
Jaeger
and
I'm.
Also
a
staff
attorney
at
the
legal
aid
foundation
of
Los
Angeles
in
the
housing
communities
work
group
working
at
verse,
South
LA
office
I'm
also
here
to
provide
some
comments
based
on
laughs,
TLAs
decades
of
experience
working
on
rent
stabilization
measures
about
some
of
the
potential
unintended
consequences
of
the
45
day.
Temporary
rent
freeze
as
its
drafted,
as
my
colleague,
alluded
to
without
any
sort
of
Just
Cause
eviction
protections
or
limits
their
use
as
why
a
landlord
can
evict
a
tenant.
O
5%
cap
on
rent
increases
turns
into
increased
number
of
evictions.
Landlords
will
evict
tenants
and
reset
using
vacancy
decontrol,
rather
than
you
know,
comply
with
the
5%
rent
cap.
The
other
major
issue
that
we
see
here
that
is
not
typical
of
these
rent
caps
is
a
lack
of
you
know:
program
of
community
engagement
and
outreach
without
some
sort
of
way
for
the
community
to
know
about
this.
You
know
temporary
rent,
freeze
and
potential
future
actions
by
the
city.
O
It
will
go.
Unutilized
tenants
will
not
know
if
their
rent
is
being
unfairly.
Increased.
Landlords
will
not
be
aware
of
the
fact
that
they
cannot
raise
these
rents
and
it
will
mire
the
situation
in
you
know,
litigation
for
months
and
years
to
come
between
individual
tenants
and
landlords.
Without
some
kind
of
you
know
comprehensive,
you
know,
oversight
and
outreach
and
engagement
to
inform
the
community,
both
landlords
and
tenants
of
the
new
restrictions
during
these
45
days.
Thank
you.
Thank.

P
Q
Air
city
council
staff,
B
Davis,
2nd
district
living
in
this
city
continues
day
the
date
exactly
December
28th
1987
I
had
just
moved
back
from
Anaheim
I
went
to
it
for
a
couple
of
years,
but
I'm
said
all
that
to
say
I
hadn't,
planned
on
coming
back
to
this
I
was
going
to
Lancaster
toukas
back
then
that
was
a
new
frontier,
but
got
me
was
the
drive
back
home.
I
said:
wait
a
minute.
Q
Half
my
life
is
gonna,
be
on
a
freeway,
so
I
stopped
at
Randy's
happened
to
get
my
hands
on
an
LA
Times
newspaper
and
when
it
was
worth
reading
and
got
myself
the
real
estate
session
and
saw
the
ad
of
the
house
I
ended
up.
Buying
I've
seen
the
ups
and
downs
ever
since
then
I
came
from
a
time
where
didn't
depend
on
the
government
for
much
of
anything,
and
you
wanted
something
you
had
to
get
out
and
get
it.
Q
I
bought
my
first
home
when
I
was
24
years
old,
because
I
didn't
party
I
didn't
chase
girls
I
had
a
job
that
was
making
great
money.
I
was
gonna,
make
my
mark
quick
paid
off
over
my
lifetime.
I
I
have
empathy
for
their
folks.
I
have
empathy
for
people
present
situation,
but
I
have
to
speak
honestly
from
the
heart.
Yeah
I
have
neighbors
that
have
gone
missing
as
well.
Sorry,
not
sorry
I,
don't
miss
them
they're
the
type
of
neighbor
that
walks
a
Rottweiler
there.
Q
I,
don't
know
how
what
to
make
of
housing
is
a
human
right.
Okay,
all
right,
you
should
be
able
to
snap.
Your
fingers
and
a
house
should
appear
just
like
medical
care
is
a
human
right
nope.
Until
you
can
snap,
your
fingers
and
a
doctor
appears
in
a
cloud
of
smoke.
It's
privileged
I
want
you
guys
to
think
long
and
hard
on
this.
The
key
word
is
temporary
if
I
can
get
five
seconds
after
this
runs
out
people.
It's
like
this
water
seeks
its
own
level.
This
will
work
itself
out.
Q
I,
don't
think
anybody
should
have
their
rent
raised.
70%,
that's
ridiculous,
cruel,
but
you
shouldn't
tie
the
hand
of
the
back
behind
the
back
of
the
person
who
worked
those
hours
when
they
were
young
may
that
investment
when
they're
young
and
now
yeah
they
want
to
retire
and
go
to
Vegas
sound
familiar
yeah.
That's
me
wrap.
R
Afternoon,
residents,
business
owners
and
city
council
members,
many
of
us
are
finding
it
harder
to
remain
a
part
of
the
community
of
our
community.
We
believe
that
our
elected
officials
should
prioritize
housing
that
our
current
workforce
can
afford
and
make
true
lasting
investments
in
our
city.
Corporate
management
companies
have
played
a
huge
role
in
the
significant
number
of
displaced
residents,
I
myself
and
my
son
who's,
not
with
me
today
and
one
of
them
after
we
quote-unquote
settled
the
company's
continued
to
recklessly
pressure
and
mishandle
our
situation.
R
As
a
matter
of
fact,
yesterday
marked
my
21st
day
were
the
big
corporate
company
they
came
in
and
took
over.
My
building
was
supposed
to
refund
my
deposit,
haven't
heard
from
them
or
received
any
type
of
correspondence
after
sending
text
messages
as
a
community,
we
appreciate
the
main
asset
management
and
rental
agreement,
but
it
is
not
a
solution
for
the
entire
city.
Neither
is
a
60-day
notice
to
have
your
rent
increased
to
1,300
or
1,500.
Neither
there
is
a
simple
45-day
moratorium.
R
We
believe
that
if
we
work
together,
we
can
create
a
comprehensive
solution
for
the
entire
community.
I
understand
that
there
is
a
survey,
that's
out
right
now,
it's
implemented
for
this.
Any
residents
that
are
receiving
increases,
but
to
limit
it
for
25
percent.
Isn't
enough,
it
doesn't
allow
voices
all
verses
to
be
heard.
Not
only
that,
there's
not
enough,
there's
very
little
public
announcement
on
it
or
no
one
knows
about
it.
R
D
R
Year,
the
Englewood
school
district
alone
lost
approximately
800
students
from
their
enrollment.
We
want
to
sweep
under
the
carpet
and
put
it
on
parents
wanting
to
put
their
kid
in
charter
schools,
but
the
reality
is
we're
pushing
our
kids
and
their
families
out
of
the
district.
That's
a
huge
reason.
Far
for
such
a
low
enrollment
with
the
school
district
and
nobody's
recognizing
that
what
can
we
do
to
help
I
know?
R
It
seems
like
everyone's
coming
and
clawing
I'm
here
to
help
I
have
a
19
year
old
and
I'm
excited
about
the
Rams
I'm
excited
about
the
Chargers
I'm
excited
about
the
Clippers.
But
if
I
can't
be
here
or
put
my
young
son
in
an
environment,
how
do
you
expect
people
to
be
happy
and
helping
and
helping
them
and
want
to
help
I'm
sorry,
I'm,
a
little
nervous
and
it's
emotional.
D
S
Afternoon,
my
name
is
antonio
hicks,
I'm
a
senior
staff
attorney
from
public
counsel.
First
of
all,
I'd
like
to
commend
you,
mr.
mayor
and
the
city
council
members
for
taking
up
this
very
important
issue.
I
know
you
you've
been
taking
a
lot
of
information
important
for
the
community,
so
I
just
want
to
take
a
quick
second
to
also
acknowledge
the
efforts
of
the
uplift
englewood
coalition
for
the
advocacy
they've
done
around
tenant
protections
and
also
keeping
this
issue
sort
of
in
public
consciousness.
S
G
S
So
again,
just
for
purposes
of
the
study
that
you're
going
to
be
doing
for
the
next
45
days,
I
would
submit
to
you
that
we're
very
confident
that
the
policies
there
are
at
least
worth
looking
at
and
considering
because
because
of
the
legal
analysis
that
has
gone
on
behind
it
all
right.
Thank
you
very
much.
All.
D
D
T
D
D
T
So
what's
amazing
is
over
the
last
several
years
we've
been
amassing
more
and
more
people
so
that
you
can
get
the
information
clearly,
so
you
can
make
really
positive
decisions
for
the
for
the
city
of
Inglewood
I
used
to
live
at
629,
East,
Queen
Street,
my
rent
started
at
1275
and
it
moved
up
to
13th
up
to
1550
and
then
up
to
7
eighteen.
Fifty
fifty
I
couldn't
afford
it
anymore,
but
it
didn't.
T
It
wasn't
my
decision
because
I
got
a
60-day
notice,
I
had
to
vacate
that
apartment,
and
then,
when
I
went
back
to
visit,
one
of
my
neighbors,
my
building
manager
had
moved
into
that
apartment
building
a
part
of
that
unit
and
over
the
course
of
the
six
months
of
maleeni
departing
that
building
the
building
manager
made
it
more
and
more
uncomfortable
repairs
went
longer
and
longer
friends
of
mine
that
are
connected
to
the
PTO
just
got
another
notice
where
33%
of
their
has
increased
and
it's
building
wide.
This,
unfortunately,
is
not
a
new
issue.
T
D
D
Is
you
had
to
PDF
the
copy
of
your
notice
and
the
copy
of
your
original
rental
agreement,
and
that
way
we
can
make
decisions
based
on
factual
reality
and
also
I
want
to
tell
you
this
too
I've
been
known
to
call
the
management,
companies
and
the
owners
and
and
talk
about
this,
so
it
would
be
really
helpful.
This
thing
that
you
articulated
going
from
1275
to
1750
I.
Imagine
you
have
all
those
documents
and
I
would
love
to
have
those.
T
D
H
H
D
H
D
D
D
Q
D
U
E
By
Mayor
James
T
bus
jr.
recommending
the
introduction
and
and
adoption
of
emergency
ordinance
imposing
a
45-day
moratorium
with
an
option
to
extend
for
an
additional
ten
months
and
15
days,
total
of
one
year
limiting
rent
increases
to
five
percent
per
year
on
certain
residential
properties
within
the
city
of
Englewood.
And
it's
my
understanding
mayor
that
we
have
to
do
this
vote.
D
It
wasn't
until
construction
on
the
stadium
started,
we
started
receiving
complaints
about
Ranson
and
they
were
tied
to
I.
Don't
know
both
an
urban
legend
to
the
fact
that
the
stadium
was
coming
here.
The
reality
was
rents
have
been
going
up
throughout
the
South
Bay
throughout
the
state
of
California.
D
The
city
of
Inglewood
has
in
whole
numbers
in
per
capita,
more
affordable
housing
than
any
city
in
the
South
Bay
average
rents
in
Inglewood.
Even
to
this
day,
our
Lord
for
the
state
of
California
now
I
want
you
guys.
I
just
want
to
set
the
table
and
then
we're
going
to
talk
about
why
this
initiative
was
placed
for
the
council
to
discuss.
There
is
no
doubt
under.
Never
will
be
any
doubt
that
when
it
comes
to
first-time
buyer
programs,
affordable
housing,
section
8
voucher
there,
there
are
no
cities
in
the
South
Bay
that
touch
Inglewood.
D
D
Then
at
6:21
East
99th
Street,
there
was
a
hundred
and
thirty
eight
percent
increase
and
I
come
I
called
the
company
because
I
wanted
to
know.
You
know
if
this
was
true
and
I
talked
to
the
managing
partner
of
the
limited
liability
corporation
and
II
did
indeed
verify
that
it
was
true
and-
and
this
is
why
they
proposed
this
rental
increase.
D
They
just
bought
the
property
two
properties
for
thirty
five
list,
beach
and
621
East
99
and
the
owner
had
owned
them
for
decades,
and
the
company
purchased
them
for
a
multiple
of
close
to
four
times
what
they
were
purchased
for.
Originally,
they
also
intended
to
make
an
investment
in
the
properties,
because
the
owner,
great
man,
he
had
kept
the
rental
rents
low,
but
there
hadn't
been
any
capital
investment
in
the
properties
and
so
coming
in,
and
this
is
what
happens.
D
That's
just
that's
just
not
acceptable,
I
had
a
he
came
in
and
we
talked
and
then
we
talked
again
a
few
days
later
and
my
position
with
him
was
that
while
he
had
every
right
be
able
to
capitalize
and
pay
his
mortgage,
he
had
every
right
to
do
that
and
he
had
every
right
to
be
able
to
one
day
recruit
the
massive
investment
that
was
going
to
be
required
to
upgrade
these
properties.
But
here's
the
rub:
there's
a
social
cost,
there's
a
social
cost.
When
things
change
people
kid.
D
And
so
that
social
cost
has
to
be
figured
into
the
prospectus
for
someone
that
makes
a
purchase
in
the
city
and
between
the
two
of
us
we
came
up
with
a
multi-tiered
solution
where
he
would
rescind
the
rent
increase
until
June,
1st
and
there'd
be
a
much
more
modest.
This
was
this
happened
in
January,
much
more
modest
increase
in
June,
first
on
June
1st,
and
that
anyone
within
30
days
that
felt
they
weren't
going
to
be
able
to
make
that
increase
in
June.
D
First,
they
were
going
to
be
given
a
10,000,
Rico
relocation
allowance,
or
they
were
going
to
be
allowed
to
relocate
to
one
of
his
other
buildings
that
had
lower
rent
that
they
would
pay
no
rent
the
last
month
they
were
in
these
two
buildings
and
there'd,
be
no
baza
required
to
move
to
the
new
building.
So
in
essence
they
would
move
to
a
building.
They
could
afford
to
live
in
and
no
car
seamlessly,
and
if
they
didn't
use
that,
then
they
got
a
relocation
allowance.
D
It
was
substantive
enough
to
allow
them
to
look
someplace
else
to
be
that
took
care
of
those
two
buildings,
but
at
the
same
time
the
council
was
curious,
and
so
we
did
a
web-based
survey.
We
put
it
up
asking
for
people
to
submit
their
information
and
I
believe
we
put
25%,
but
let
me
tell
you:
some
I
got
increases
as
low
as
2%
and
as
much
as
one
hundred
thirty
eight
percent,
one
hundred
thirty
eight
percent,
the
102
percent.
We
took
care
of
with
the
negotiations
and
I
said.
D
D
They
occur
because
buildings
turn
over
and
I
thought
I
said.
Maybe
you
know
we'll
be
able
to
negotiate
with
every
landlord
to
understand.
There
need
to
be
options
given
to
people.
People
deserve
options,
it
has
to
be
part
of
the
calculus.
The
social
cost
of
building
turnover
now
understand
this.
This
was
coming.
It
may
have
been
accelerated
because
England
is
such
a
hot
commodity
these
days,
but
this
was
coming.
D
D
That
will
not
happen
here,
so
this
moratorium
is
just
that
it's
some
more
tournaments
to
time
out,
because
we
knew
as
soon
as
we
started
talking
about
this.
That's
gonna
freak
some
people
out
and
they
might
try
to
raise
rents
to
beat
whatever
we
ultimately
decide
to
do,
and
I
can't
tell
you
today
exactly
what
we're
going
to
do.
But
I
can
tell
you
with
certainty.
If
the
council
votes
for
this,
they
were
going
to
do
something.
D
V
V
Our
friends
who
live
here
that
are
renters
that
have
been
either
displaced,
receive
the
increases
and
also
by
family
or
friends
at
home
income
property,
and
so
we
have
to
find
a
balance,
and
so
what
we're
doing
today
is
receiving
that
input
so
that
we
can
make
some
decisions
that
are
based
on
what
the
communities
filling
based
on?
What
we're
seeing
as
a
city
here
in
Englewood
will
be
receiving
a
comprehensive
staff
report.
V
We
will
sit
down
and
look
at
it
and
I
know.
The
first
speaker
brought
up
a
lot
of
great
points,
there's
a
lot
that
we
as
a
city
as
a
council,
have
to
look
at
before
we
make
these
decisions,
and
so
I
just
want
folks
to
know
that
we
hear
you
from
both
sides
of
the
table
from
both
sides
and
at
the
end
of
the
day
we
make
a
decision.
That's
best
for
the
city,
the
community
of
Englewood,
and
so
again
thank
you
for
coming
out.
V
U
You
mr.
mayor
and
I
also
would
like
to
thank
all
of
you,
I'm
sitting
there
going
around
this
room.
It
shows
me
that
the
people
in
Inglis
ting
anyone
would
be
involved
so
I.
Thank
you
for
coming
out
and
believe
me.
This
council
would
be
working
diligently
to
make
sure
that
we
come
up
with
the
right
solution.
We
won't
just
put
something
together,
we'll
work
at
it.
We
will
do
our
due
diligence
and
we'll
make
the
best
possible
decision
that
we
can
make
for
the
City
of
England.
U
We
understand
both
sides
of
the
coin,
but
that's
the
heart
of
the
whole
thing.
There
are
two
sides
to
this
coin
and
the
only
way
we
can
do
this
is
we
will
come
up
with
solution,
but
we'll
have
pros
and
cons
and
staff
will
give
us
information
and
we
will
come
up
with
the
right
solution.
So,
thanks
again
for
coming
out
appreciate
it.
D
W
Yes,
Thank
You
mayor.
First
of
all,
if
you
didn't
think
the
council
was
listening,
when
you
came
the
first
time
from
uplift
and
others,
you
now
understand
that
we
have.
We
also
reached
out
for
the
survey
and
those
that
indicate
that
they
had
a
rent
increase
and
are
not
doing
the
survey.
Shame
on
you.
We
have
to
garner
the
information
as
much
as
we
can
and
we
take
the
input
that
you
provide.
I
have
to
tell
you
in
my
district,
specifically
I.
W
W
We
identified
that
there
is
a
bonafide,
genuine
issue
that
needs
to
be
addressed
with
a
balance
of
landlord
and
tenants
that
is
going
to
impact
this
city
and
continue,
and
until
we
get
a
handle
on
it,
it's
gonna
continue
to
escalate,
and
so
therefore,
we
reached
out-
and
your
response
today
was
similar
to
when
you
first
came,
but
we
need
you,
we
need
continuity.
So
there's
a
survey
take
time
to
finish
that
survey,
so
we
can
add
it
to
our
input.
X
You
mayor
for
months,
we've
been
sitting
up
here,
saying
no
rent
control,
and
that
was
because
we
were
responding
to
the
entire
city.
What
was
happening,
how
the
economy
is
dresses
itself,
and
then
we
started
to
hear.
The
exact
stories
that
were
going
on
the
mayor
mentioned
did
a
good
job
of
mentioning
specific
times
when
we
started
to
notice
notice
the
effect
that
so
much
of
this
development
was
bringing
whether
it
be
a
property
owner
that
increased,
an
exorbitant
amount
of
rent
or
a
business
owner
that
was
having
to
deal
with
their
rent
increase.
X
That
was
amazingly
high
and
their
business
couldn't
handle
it
while
we're
still
lower
than
other
cities.
Just
like
the
mayor
said,
and
we
we
have
all
enjoyed
that
all
renters
have
seen
that
throughout
the
years.
You
can't
hide
away
from
the
fact
that
that
some
of
the
investors
that
were
created
by
the
opportunities
here
in
the
city
have
come
in
and
because
they
know
of
the
stability
of
the
economy
and
the
growing
economy
began
to
really
increase
the
rents
to
a
degree
that
just
was
unmanageable.
X
It
was
ridiculous
to
use
a
word,
so
it
really
became
a
situation.
I
think
the
mayor
actually
called
me
after
he
addressed
that
one
issue
where
the
person
was
I
think
it
was
close
to
200
percent
increase.
Obviously,
that's
something
that
we
all
feel
up
here
and
we
don't
want
to
see
happen
in
the
city
of
Englewood,
so
it
obviously
prompted
the
survey.
X
The
survey
that's
going
on
and
now
in
turn
the
mayor
based
on
everything
that
that
he
has
seen-
and
we
have
all
seen-
brought
it
up
in
terms
of
initiative,
which
was
the
best
way
to
go,
because
we
are
bound
to
discuss
things
up
here
so
by
him,
introducing
it
to
us.
It
opens
up
this
conversation.
The
moratorium
is
a
45
day
study.
It's
a
pause,
we're
basically
saying
hold
everything,
hold
everything,
there's
obviously
some
issue
here
that
we
need
to
address
in
some
fashion.
You
know
extremely
important.
X
You
know
the
the
it
requires
careful
thought
he
did
a
good
job
of
carving
out
those
mom-and-pops
to
the
best
of
his
ability
in
terms
of
the
single-family
homes.
The
folks
that
have
lived
in
this
neighborhood
have
really
sacrificed
to
build
something
for
themselves
and
they
should
not
be
treated
as
if
they
are
investors
coming
in
from
outside
and
gouging
residents,
many
of
which
have
very
seldomly
raised
rent
because
they
enjoy
their
renters.
X
They
love
their
renters
and
they
treat
them
well
enough
because
they
don't
want
them
to
leave
and
those
folks
shouldn't
be
shouldn't,
be
punished.
So
the
5%
is
reasonable
at
this
time.
In
terms
of
addressing
the
the
time
period
that
the
mayor
is
addressing,
the
only
thing
that
I
would
ask
that
was
brought
up
is
that
we
have
frozen
and
our
understanding
is
that
they
won't
see
impacts
in
terms
of
getting
evicted
during
these
six
45
days.
X
D
X
D
P
X
He
what
I
was
gonna
say
is
we
don't
know
the
mayor
actually
did
a
good
job,
I'm
glad
he
said
it.
What
we're
gonna
do
is
we're
gonna
give.
This
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
gather
quite
a
bit
of
information
to
take
the
phone
calls
that
we
have
taken
to
take
the
emails
that
we
have
taken
and
really
learn
about
it,
because
this
is
one
of
those
things
that
we
want
to
get
as
right
as
possible.
D
D
They
we
have
to
be
careful,
so
so
we
can't
anybody
could
say
that
it's
just
cause
because
what
they
left
there,
let
their
dog
bark
that
they
left
their
music
up
too
loud
for
an
hour.
So
we
really
have
to
think
this
through
as
to
what
just
cost
means
it'd
be
easier.
If
we
said
for
45
days,
there
would
be
no
evictions
allowed,
but
for
criminality,
drug
use,
something
like
that,
because
a
problem.
B
B
X
Cause
seems
to
be
a
term
used
in
current
leases
and
in
current
rental
agreements
as
far
as
I
understand
it,
and
it
would
take
the
same
definition
and
that's
why
I
brought
it
up.
I
am
I
am
fine
with
whatever
we
decide
here
as
long
as
that
is
addressed
to
protect
the
residents
for
that
45-day
period.
I.

AA
AA
and
also
I
would
appreciate
the
mayor
but
close
to
meet
the
meeting.
Also
in
memory
of
Tania
Jefferson,
who
had
lived
in
the
city
for
more
than
20
years,
marital
our
Jefferson
who's,
a
local
contractor
here
and
probably
have
done
work
for
a
number
of
Englewood
residents.
Her
her
son,
Larry
Jefferson
jr.,
was
in
my
student
intern
program
about
four
years
ago.
I
attended
her
services
and
more
than
600
people
attended
that
service.
AA
It
was
hard
to
even
find
a
place
to
park
there,
and
every
seat
in
the
church
was
too
and
both
I
gave
a
celebration
of
black
plaque
as
well
as
director
globally
agree.
I
presented
that
one
on
Gloria
grace
state
cuz.
She
was
in
Sacramento
that
day.
That
concludes
my
comments
and
mine
and
I
might
come
as
a
report.
Thank.
A
Good
afternoon,
mayor
city
staff
and
council
I'm
gonna
play
devil's
advocate
we're
talking
about
with
control,
we're
gonna,
be
fair.
I'm
gonna,
take
y'all
back
to
the
80s
and
then
I'm
gonna
take
y'all
back
to
a
situation
that
just
happened.
A
lady
got
shot
on
Christmas,
Day
I,
don't
know
if
that
put
that
one
we
got
shot
over
there
by
Costco
or
residents
of
Inglewood
or
anything,
but
anyway
we're
going
back
to
the
80s
when
street
hustlers
used
to
hustle
on
our
streets
and
property
values
way
down
because
of
graffiti
gang
violence.
Okay.
A
Now,
if
we
have
rent
control,
what
makes
a
a
family
come
from
your
grandparents
living
in
Inglewood
bring
kids
from
out
of
state
that
come
and
live
or
temporarily
and,
and
they
make
bad
things
happen
in
our
city.
How
can
we
stop
that?
Do
we
have
to
have
the
landlord
interview,
the
the
tenants
every
once
a
month
to
see
that
they
are
the
cause
of
rent
control
going
so
high,
because
if
they
can't
make
repairs
back
in
the
80s,
because
the
wild
wild
west,
the
gang
graffiti,
the
gang
control.
C
I
had
respectfully
requested
that
this
officer
give
you,
gentlemen,
an
opportunity
to
review
the
questions
that
would
have
clarified
what
the
property
owners
need
to
understand.
Some
reason
made
the
decision
not
to
do
that.
So
I
asked
now
that
the
resident
the
measure
has
been
passed
without
any
review
of
those
specific
questions.
When
was
the
resolution
and
the
temporary
ordinance
being
published
so.
D
AB
Mr.
Birds,
my
name
is
Renee
Wilmore
I've
been
living
in
the
city
of
Englewood,
since
1976
went
to
Crozier
Inglewood
High
basically
lived
here.
All
my
life
had
on
my
children
here.
I
have
a
son
that
plays
ball.
Malik
Gordon,
which
you
looked
out
for
in
sponsor
greatly
appreciated,
went
through
some
stuff
here
at
this
Englewood,
but
he's
doing
well
now
anyway.
My
problem
is
where
I've
been
staying
for
the
last
seven
years
at
a
three-bedroom
condo
three
bathroom,
my
rent
was
1450.
AB
My
landlord
requested
to
have
a
rent
increase,
because
I
do
have
subsidized
housing
where
they
do
I
think
they
give
me
like
$300
towards
my
rent
or
what-have-you
anyway,
when
she
requested
that
increase.
She
also
was
told
that
she
couldn't
get
the
increase
unless
she
fixed
27
items
on
the
listing.
So
she
chose
not
to
fix
anything
on
the
listing
and
in
turn
she
told
me
that
if
I
wanted
to
stay
here,
her
rent
would
now
go
up
to
four
thousand
five
hundred
a
month.
AB
I,
don't
know
if
that's
true
or
a
fact
if
she
can
do
that,
but
anyway
she
gave
me
a
notice
to
move
on
the
1st
of
March
sandy
I
had
a
30-day
notice
to
move
out
of
her
her
place,
but
the
paperwork
that
I
have
it
says
February
the
20th
and
she
told
me
that
I
should
be
out
of
her
place
by
the
20th
I.
Don't
like
I
said:
I,
don't
know
what
this
legit.
D
Here's
what
I
recommend!
First
of
all,
there
are
legal
firm
to
specialize
in
rental
issues.
Ok,
and
that's
what
you
should
do.
The
council
cannot
intervene
between
you
and
your
landlord,
because
you
know
you
have
your
side.
They're
gonna
have
their
side,
that's
what
courts
for.
So
that's
that's
what
you
should
do.
I
talked.
AB
D
D
J
And
the
council
and
audience
just
the
safety
I'm
only
four
and
a
half
blocks
you
104
in
Yukon,
where
the
lady
who
was
shot
and
as
a
senior
myself
I
just
want
to
know.
How
can
we
go
about
with
that
concern
being
a
41
year
resident
here
and
when
anything
happened,
I
was
shocked.
I
just
left
Costco
before
walking
from
that
way
before
that
lady
was
killed.
So
that's
why
it's
a
very
special
one
for
me,
because
I
live
in
the
area.

Q
Q

If
you're
a
good
person,
you've
been
a
good
neighbor
I
want
you
to
stay
here.
It
makes
my
quality
of
life
better
and
after
all,
folks,
that's
what
it's
all
about.
Isn't
it
that's
what
it's
all
about
call
it
call
me
selfish,
but
I
want
to
live
in
the
town
where
it's
like
I
said
what
happened:
Christmas,
Day
I
hope
it
becomes
so
where
that
will
shock
me
the
next
time
it
happens
so
again,
I'm
open
to
volunteer.
You
guys
got
my
number
thank.

On
item
number
five:
the
agreement
that
you
entered
into
with
the
Inglewood
baseball
fund
to
help
out
darby
park
grew
up
playing
baseball
there
a
few
years
ago
in
a
Getty
field,
I'm
here
with
the
president
of
Englewood
baseball,
fun,
Eric
Aldridge,
and
we
just
want
to
thank
you
for
being
attentive
to
the
youth
of
the
city
of
Inglewood,
because
we
know
that
that's
our
future.
So
thank
you.
I'm
going
to
just
say
a
few
words
and
I
appreciate
the
support
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
do
some
good
things
in
the
city.
Thanks.
X
D
U
He's
been
here
a
long
long
time,
I
know
that,
because
when
I
was
contracting
here,
I
used
to
interface
with
her
in
the
clerk's
office,
so
I'm
really
shocked
and
hurt.
He's
going
on.
I
also
want
to
thank
all
of
you
for
coming
out.
It
feels
good
to
see
our
constituents
take
part
in
the
government
of
their
city.
I
also
wanted
to
congratulate
my
grandson
for
joining
one
of
the
best
police
forces
in
the
state
of
California,
maybe
in
the
United
States
of
America
English
department.
He.
U
Was
badged
this
past
week
and
I
am
so
proud
of
him,
knowing
what
he
went
through
and
participating
in
some
of
that
matter
of
fact,
that's
his
father,
son
and
in-laws.
So
we
got
a
bunch
of
police
in
the
family,
so
I'm
proud
of
all
of
them.
They
know
what
to
do.
They
went
to
work
and
got
it
done
so
with
that
I
hope
you
all
have
a
wonderful
day
and
thanks
for
coming
up.
D
D
Okay,
then,
yes,
it's
national,
but
yes,
all
right.
What
I
want
to
do?
Madam
clerk
I
want
to
modify.
My
original
motion
was
most
motion,
one
to
make
it
only
criminality
and
drug
use
or
possession
I
want
to
modify
it
into
include
failure
to
pay
rent,
because
no
one
should
be
forced
to
keep
someone
that
is
not
gonna
pay
the
rent,
and
so
that's
a
modification
that
motion
so
first
I
moved
to
reopen.
Is
there
a
second
second,
madam
clerk,
would
you
call
the
roll
on
the
reopening
jar.
E
E
D
V
Mayor,
look
first
off
George!
Congratulations
on
your
grandson,
joining
the
police
department
here
in
Inglewood.
You
know
it's
so
nice
to
have
seen
you
know
the
grandfather,
the
the
dad
and
then
now
the
son,
as
you
saw
and
he's
been
there
for
many
years.
So
it's
just
nice
to
see
all
the
family
together
at
that
event
and
I
want
to
congratulate
all
the
rest
of
the
men
and
women
that
were
basically
sworn
in
last
weekend.
They
call
it
a
badge
pinning
ceremony
where
family
members
get
to
put
the
badge
on
the
officers
shirt.
V
You
know
Trish
blindsided
whoa.
You
know
we
all
heard
that
she
passed
away
and
so
my
condolences
to
to
the
city,
clerk,
your
staff
and
her
family
and
all
our
our
folks
here,
the
city
of
Inglewood
into
the
community,
because
you
touched
so
many
people
so
certainly
keep
her
in
our
thoughts
and
prayers.
I
also
want
to
ask
the
mayor,
if
you'll
close
in
the
memory
of
a
friend
of
the
mayor
and
I,
that
we
worked
together
at
the
Santa
Monica
Police
Department
for
many
years,
and
he
he
died
of
colon
cancer.
V
Last
week
sergeant
Tim
Bauer,
BAU
ER.
It
was
my
first
training
officer
really.
You
know
hard
to
hear
these.
Both
these
folks
had
passed
away
within
days
of
each
other.
I
also
want
to
thank
Chris.
Jackson
I
had
the
opportunity
to
go.
He
had
a
staff
meeting
with
economic
development,
and
you
know
I
appreciate
what
everybody
does
here
in
the
city,
but
it's
just
nice
to
I've
been
there
at
the
library
and
the
talk
with
all
the
staff
and
to
thank
them
for
everything
they
do
every
single
day.
V
We
ask
so
much
of
our
folks,
so
many
dynamic
changes
occurring
in
the
city
of
Inglewood
and
they're
stepping
up
and
some
you
know
that's
where
the
rubber
meets
the
road
and
so
again,
thank
you
for
allowing
me
to
go
there
and
be
present
to
talk
to
your
folks
and
your
staff
about
the
good
work
that
they're
doing.
I
also
want
to
thank
the
chamber
because
last
week
I
attended
the
Job
Shadow
day
and
South
Bay
work.
Investment
board
was
there
as
well.
V
It's
the
high
school
kids
to
come
together
and
then
they're
sent
out
into
the
community
to
different
job
sites,
places
where
they
might
think
about
being
a
career,
whether
it's
the
police
department,
the
fire
department
working
as
a
mechanic
working
in
an
office
being
an
attorney
a
doctor.
So
there's
so
many
places
here
in
then
all
these
young
men
and
woman
had
a
chance
to
go
experience.
I
want
to
thank
the
chamber.
V
V
D
W
E
W
W
The
other
thing
got
to
reach
out
also
to
the
grandson
of
councilman
Dotson
and
joining
the
police
department.
People
have
callings
and
you
see
his
family
has
that
calling
to
be
involved
in
as
a
peace
officer.
So
hats
off
to
him.
I
also
want
to
acknowledge
that
this
past
Wednesday
district
4
had
a
town
hall
meeting.
It
was
well
attended
over
140
people,
were
there
standing
room,
only
a
lot
of
excitement,
because
the
theme
was
defining
our
future
the
year
of
progress
and
advancement.
So
we
had
representatives
our
public
works.
W
Director
was
there
regarding
capital
improvement
projects.
We
had
Cinderella
there
who
spoke
about
the
homeless
issues
in
the
city
and
also
getting
ready
for
2020
census
count,
particularly
to
make
sure
that
the
homeless
are
included
in
that
count,
and
then
I
did
a
lot
of
announcements
regarding
the
things
going
on
around
the
city
with
that
that
are
being
improved.
The
mayor
talks
global
about
this
companies
coming
and
that
companies
coming
I
talked
about
potholes
street
lights.
Lane
closures,
those
kind
of
things
and
the
residents
were
very
appreciative
and
then
finally,
we
had
the
police
office.
W
Police
department
was
there
and
they
spoke
specifically
on
issues
that
you
have
concern
on
and
they
actually
had
poster
boards
and
they
use
post-its
that
you
as
a
resident
would
then
identify
I.
Have
this
issue
and
I
want
an
officer
to
talk
to
me
personally
about
it,
and
so
that
worked
out
very
well
to
the
point
that,
where
we're
supposed
to
end
in
two
hours
in
and
out
in
three
hours,
because
people
were
that
interested
and
hungry
for
information
and
for
help
I
do
want
to
make
two
announcements.
W
I
was
also
a
maid
at
the
town
town-hall
meeting,
and
that
is
the
English
Park
Cemetery
is
reaching
out
to
volunteers
to
get
ready
for
the
Veterans
Day
celebration
as
we're
going
to
be
putting
out
flags
on
the
grave
sites,
so
save
the
date
for
Saturday
May
25th,
if
you're
interested
to
join
is
the
thing
with
Park
Cemetery
to
put
the
flags
on
the
graves.
Finally,
I
do
want
to
acknowledge
the
England
Police
Department
they're,
having
a
community
police
academy
and
they're
accepting
applications.
W
Now
the
plan
to
participate
programs
from
April,
the
2nd
to
June
11th
on
Tuesdays
from
6
p.m.
to
9
p.m.
and
community
remain
here
at
City
Hall.
So
if
you
want
to
find
out
about
things
going
on
in
the
police
departments
such
as
patrol
procedures,
traffic
investigation,
communications,
Criminal,
Investigations,
Narcotics,
Enforcement
and
jail
procedures,
you're
welcome
to
be
a
candidate
to
participate
in
the
community
police
academy,
and
on
that
note,
everyone
have
a
blessed
day.
Thank
you.
Thank.
X
Brief
comments
mayor
the
first
I
would
like
to
thank
Eric,
who
was
here-
oh
I'm,
not
too
familiar
with
this
program
over
at
Darby,
but
to
get
the
sponsorship
to
help
him
develop.
As
Alex
said,
you
know
something
like
a
batting
cage
which
seems
like
it's
so
simple,
but
we've
had
to
do
without
for
many
years.
So
I
congratulate
him
for
that
now
in
regards
to
our
loss
here,
one
of
our
own,
miss
Orton,
patricia
McNish
I.
X
Remember
when
you
hired
her,
you
had
gone
through
a
variety
of
staff
to
get
the
right
person
and-
and
she
was
just
so
so
ideal
for
your
office
that
doesn't
come
around
very
often
so
I'm.
So
sorry
for
your
loss,
you
know
always
a
pleasant
person,
but
every
time
we
lose
one
of
our
own.
You
know
it's
sad,
so
our
thoughts
and
prayers
are
with
their
family.
That's
all
I
have.
D
All
the
ladies
in
City
Clerk's
office,
really
great
group
of
people
and
one
of
the
things
I
remember
about
them,
is
that
when
I
started
with
the
city
man
to
do
these
tough
things,
you
know
get
rid
of
lifetime
medical
do
layoffs,
it
wasn't
a
very
popular
guy,
but
I
would
take
every
time.
I
came
in
the
clerk's
office
they
treated
me
like
I
was
a
long-lost
uncle.
D
They
always
did
and
Trish
when
she
started
there
probably
four
years
ago.
Something
like
that.
Just
a
very
special
person
and
I
remember
when
Miss
Horton,
you
wanted
to
expand
her
staff
and
she
picked.
She
picked
a
good
one
and
so
we're
gonna
miss
her.
We
give
our
condolences
to
her
son
and
her
family
and
we're
during
the
meeting
in
the
name
of
Sergeant
Tim
Bauer,
the
Santa
Monica
Police,
Department,
retired,
Tania,
Jefferson
and
Patricia
McNish,
and
we're
adjourned.
