6. Motion to approve The Neighborhood Council of Westchester / Playa, a member of the Westside Regional Alliance of Councils (WRAC), urges (1) the federal government to intervene and conduct a federal investigation into the use by the city of Los Angeles, the county of Los Angeles, the state of California and all city, county and state agencies of federal funds received to address homelessness; (2) the state government to investigate the use of state funds for such purpose; (3) the county government to investigate the use of county funds for such purpose; and (4) the city government to investigate the use of city funds for such purpose, due to the mismanagement and non-accountability of taxpayer dollars being squandered while leaving a humanitarian crisis on our streets. The Neighborhood Council of Westchester / Playa further calls upon our city Councilmembers to communicate this request to the relevant respective federal, state, county and city authorities, including our U.S. Senators, Congressmembers, the U.S. Attorney General and Dept. of Justice; our Governor, state Senators, Assemblymembers and state Attorney General; our county Supervisors and District Attorney; and our Mayor and City Attorney.
7. Motion to approve (Refers to City Council file 24-1128) The Neighborhood Council of Westchester / Playa, a member of the Westside Regional Alliance of Councils, believes that there is a clear need for oversight and accountability for negligent property owners and developers who allow construction sites to remain incomplete and/or abandoned for extended time periods. The Neighborhood Council of Westchester / Playa therefore supports CF 24-1128 (Hernandez), which calls for a report back by LADBS on consequences and solutions to the problem of abandoned / incomplete construction sites, which pose a risk of fire and other hazards and are a threat to public safety and welfare.
8. Motion to support the Neighborhood Councils request for an extension to the December 16, 2024 feedback deadline for Form Districts allowing the Committee, Community and Neighborhood Council more time to submit their feedback to WCPAG.
