A

Madam clerk, could you call the roll.

A

Cooee stand for the pledge.

B

Mr. fields, when you dial it dial mr. Franklin long.

C

A

Good man clerk, would you call the roll.

D

Yes, ma'am a quorum is present or the City Council and successor agency.

A

Any persons wishing to adjust to the council successor agency on any item on today's agenda other than public hearing we do so at this time.

A

Hearing hearing no comment.

A

D

Hearing to consider an ordinance amending the England missable code to establish policies for short-term rentals continue.

A

The public hearing to May 26 2020 at 2 p.m. good set calendar items, 2 & 3. Second,.

D

Madam Clerk council members Dotson.

D

Council member Padilla Morales Franklin by Mayor but I.

A

D

Report recommending approval of the Fourth Amendment to sequel funding agreement number 18, zero, five, five with Murthy with him. Oh.

A

Okay, then then it's pulled because the report is no longer. We don't have the staff report. Okay, so so dr1 is pulled. Dr2.

D

Staff report recommending approval to develop and staff a housing protection department, move.

B

Items 1, 2, 3, &, 4; second,.

A

I believe there were gonna be some another.

E

Second, we're staffing for.

A

Second, madam Clerk,.

D

Councilmembers Dotson all right, Padilla, all right, Morales, I, Franklin.

E

Me I wanted to comment on this item. Okay sure go ahead. I just simply want to make sure that, based upon the ordinance that it's, the employees that are coming on board, we'll be transitional employees not permanent and that the program is set for December 31st 2024. So that's the 10-year expiration period. Yes,.

A

Only 24 is not 10, I'm, sorry, yeah, okay, okay, so, okay,.

E

A

Because I don't know that we're going to guarantee that, but they will be transitional to start go ahead.

F

F

Was adopted was that, after receiving input from tenants and landlords that the 3% cap would be for five years, and then after that, it would be, we would allow which state allows. Okay,.

A

F

Goes until 2030, so it's it's my wait.

A

Let me finish this: our intent is that rent stabilization is something that's going to go on into the future, so I mean to say that this is a ten year program. I think it's very destabilizing and disheartening for people that live here right now, because if, if you allow rents to go up ten twelve fourteen percent after ten years, you're going to be in the same situation that you are now.

G

But my understanding was that we had when we approved it. We didn't approve it with this stipulation that it would continue after the ten years. What we said is, after the five years. It would then revert to the stay state, and there was no discussion about after ten years what we would do and so I think what Council in Franklin and I'll. Let him speak on this is that we're the thought is that this continues to go and we can revisit it and you're, eight or nine or absolutely right.

G

Yes, on the council at that time can revisit it. But what we're saying is just up front that the employees that would be coming on would be transition.

A

And I agreed with them.

E

And their if I may comment renew from the section II, this section she'll remain in effect only until December, 31st 2024 and at the end of that date is repealed. So it can't be.

F

F

So the intention is when we bring the and it would be amended to reflect.

A

B

Terms is what would happen is when ours effectively sunsets, which is.

A

B

Would actually trigger the state you.

C

Know come in because we.

B

Would- and you can you can correct me if I'm wrong when I'm done, but at that point at that point we would continue to service the community with regard to what the current law is, allowing if.

F

We incorporate it in our ordinance, otherwise there would be a.

B

Point that was my next thing. Do we need to take a step, and is that step now or is that stepping for in 2023 I.

F

Think we should do it now when he am in when the ordinance cut when an amended ordinance comes back, so we can just clarify things.

B

Okay: that's why that I knew that that was the moves that works just to clarify and and what Alex would councilman Padilla said in terms of I. Think that that is the most accurate when we made our decisions was to trigger to 2024 and then allow the state to dictate, and then at that point, when that Sun sets, we can make our own decision in terms of us banding a door for it. Stopping.

C

It at that point.

B

So I I just want clarified that we're on the same page and make sure that we address that now all.

F

Right, one more because the general fund is funding the startup costs for the department. Can you include a motion that, when we start collecting registration fees that the general trying to be reimbursed? Okay.

A

F

A

Hold on a second so we're City Attorney so is that is that a motion we can make right now, because this is on the table.

D

A

We're gonna have to we're gonna have to redo the motion, but what I'm saying is what she's recommending is that we right now make the motion that that the general fund will be reimbursed retro actively once we collect the fees. That's that so that's the question. That's on the floor.

C

Because that's where I should be going, okay,.

A

So so I make total mr. so I'll.

B

Do this I'll rescind to my mother.

A

B

You can resume your second and I will amend my motion to include approval of items. 1 2, 3, & 4 of dr2, with the amendment and stipulation that any costs associated with this program will be reimbursed to the general fund at a later date. At.

A

The point that they are collected fees are collected.

B

Then what the point that the fees are collected is my.

A

Second, okay, so so so, what's your second Ino, so you're moving the entire 1 2 3 & 4! Yes, with the amendment that's correct! First and second it, madam clerk, would you call the roll yes.

H

The residents of Inglewood I stand before you this day to address the aforementioned March 10th 2020 agenda. Item from the office of the city manager already fills the subject resolution resolution to establish an investment committee from March 10th 2020.

H

However, before I address that later, I would have for the residents I was diagnosed with breast cancer several months ago.

H

It is the most aggressive form of breast cancer, however, I serve the most powerful and aggressive God and Lord in this universe, who has assuredly assured me I will be okay, I have three stages of treatment, aggressive chemotherapy surgery and radiation I'm in the final phase of chemotherapy, I'm very fatigued. Most of the time.

H

This has been a challenging and experience to my health I spent two days per week for nearly ten hours at the hospital for the infusion treatment, an appointment for my oncology, team, mayor, butts and all of the council members, as well as the city manager or informed before I began my chemo therapy treatments.

H

From inception of when Inglewood was incorporated in 1908 that's 112 years ago, an investment Oversight Committee didn't exist.

H

It is this treasurer who was elected in June of 1987 that established the first and only investment Oversight Committee. That is not required for government code. Five. Three six hundred, let me emphasize an investment Oversight Committee dozen is not required for government code. Five. Three six hundred I served as chair. The city manager served the finance director, sir, and two members from the community serve as members I announced at a previously City Council meeting several months ago. The treasurer would be accepting applications for any resident interest in serving on the investment Oversight Committee.

H

However, I announced several months later, the castle ation of that proposed meeting, as well as a treasurer's free income, tax program for residents, city, treasurer student, intern program and workshops, I completed the 15th city treasurer intern program last year. Our requests that the city clerk include this report in the documents for this council meeting. In the event, the mayor orders my mic cut off and not allow me to complete you're.

A

Definitely at time, and so you're definitely a time, so you can include it in the.

H

I said again rose you.

A

Can have her included if you want, but you're definitely at time, I can't.

H

Speak anymore, no.

A

You're at three or two three minutes.

H

B

I would just like to reiterate the same thoughts as to Jerry Friedman and now mr. Larry Aubrey other than that have a nice week now, I.

A

Wanted to um definitely give our sympathies to the city treasurer as well.

A

You know I hope that everything in the the way that's looking right right now, Jerry Friedman, I've known since I was 19 years old met him in 1972, when Marvin engineering was in the brick building at the corner of the south east corner of beach and eucalyptus and I was community service officer, and he gave me a tour of the place and he was not the principal that he he.

C

A

Just such a great asset to the community- and he will definitely be missed of know, Larry ivory since the 80s, so these are two long-term pillars of the community and we close the meeting their name and they'll definitely be missed we're adjourned. Thank you.
