Patrol, transient detail in the Palisades, Special units doing patrols, and our bicycle unit in the Palisades. Senior officer knows the area very well. LAPD has focused a lot of attention on the Palisades. Two task forces the last two weeks, in the hillside to get transients out of camps in Las Olas Bluffs. Mission to clear that out, to reduce fire danger. Reducing \u201ctent city\u201d- we cite people on the beach for everything, from smoking a cigarette to smoking in public\u2014those citations become arrest-able warrants in a few months if the cited person fails to appear in court. We have been working closely with OPCC. We believe that many of the crimes in the Palisades are transient-related crimes. New resources in the bike detail, the transient unit, the vice unit, and our patrol. Sylmar &amp; El Medio, there was a loud party. Night watch articles are critical. Some transients are unresponsive to services, but some are. Working closely with OPCC. Timmy does his banking at Wells Fargo Bank on Thursdays and Fridays.<\/p>\n<p>Locking cars and houses is important. Crime statistics: All crimes are down, except for stolen vehicles. Grand theft auto has doubled because of surfers on PCH, whose cars get stolen while they are surfing. These auto burglaries become home burglaries. 22 arrests in the Palisades in three weeks. Leaving the keys at Gladstones is a safer alternative to putting car keys on the tire. Fight for keeping the bike unit here after the summer is over. They are worth having, the Palisades needs it.<\/p>\n<p>Maryam: Illegal to sleep on the beach between midnight at 5 am- when does the transient car come through? Do we have any coverage in those hours?<\/p>\n<p>Officer Redican: we have cars that work at night. A dedicated unit looks for patterns in crime late at night. The A1 car works in those hours. They do come in early and we vary our arrival. It is getting noticeably better. They will do it at midnight and 1 AM.<\/p>\n<p>Diane Bleak: Sunset &amp; PCH, RV\u2019s park on both sides of the street. Are they allowed to? Some in RV\u2019s are living there<\/p>\n<p>Officer Lavenson: They can\u2019t sleep overnight in their RV. There\u2019s an interest in letting them sleep in their car overnight if they are intoxicated.<\/p>\n<p>Rick Mills: Does the bike unit also go to the bluffs? Particularly the El Medio Bluffs? Gwen Aldridge has had cars drive into her house three times. Traffic reduction &amp; LAPD have to work together.<\/p>\n<p>Officer Redican: We would call West Traffic Division to send motorcycle traffic units up. Traffic accidents, intoxicated drivers. We can provide the numbers to get in touch with West Traffic Division.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon Shapiro: We used to have a traffic officer, but he was reassigned to the valley. As of a meeting yesterday, we are going to be getting another officer assigned to the Palisades\/Brentwood Communities. 213 473 0215 CTSU Community Traffic Safety Unit: Officer Mike Toth, Sergeant Chris Kunz<\/p>\n<p>7.1.2. \u00a0 \u00a0United States Congress, Office of Congressman Ted Lieu. \u00a0Janet Turner, District Representative \u2013 Not in attendance.<\/p>\n<p>7.1.3. \u00a0 \u00a0Maryam read of a letter from Senator Allen\u2019s Office re: Legislative Update SB 450; Maryam also read a letter from Assemblymember Bloom\u2019s office re: Legislative Update<\/p>\n<p>7.1.4. \u00a0 \u00a0Daniel Tamm, the Office of Mayor Garcetti \u2013 Not in attendance.<\/p>\n<p>7.1.5. \u00a0 \u00a0(Addition to agenda) Sharon Shapiro, Council District 11 Representative.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday July 30: Inside Out the Movie, Hike in the Wetlands August 7 (see the CD11 website); geotechnical work, Via De Las Olas; staffing at BOE.<\/p>\n<p>Gil Dembo: LA communication towers throughout the county. Tower at the old Nike site in the Santa Monica Mountains that failed because of community objection. Now they want one in the Temescal Canyon area. What is the city doing to cooperate with this project? The Palisades needs emergency communications. Request for information from the City of Los Angeles.\u00a0Sharon Shapiro: We will look into it.\u00a0George Wolfberg: 100 Wilshire has transmitters that are intended to reach the Palisades.\u00a0Stuart Muller: Is putting a transmission tower in a canyon a good idea?<\/p>\n<p>7.2. \u00a0 \u00a0<u>From the Chair.<\/u><\/p>\n<p>7.2.1. \u00a0 \u00a0Appeal of Director\u2019s Determination regarding signage at 881 Alma Real Dr. <em>See attached letter<\/em> (support for Specific Plan).<\/p>\n<p>7.2.2. \u00a0 \u00a0Appointment of PPCC Committees and Liaisons. \u00a0<em>See attached list.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>7.2.3. \u00a0 \u00a0Appointment of PPCC Advisors. \u00a0<em>See attached list.<\/em> Maryam stated that she will appoint a new legal advisor; she wishes to appoint Ron Dean as interim legal advisor with consent of the board; she also wishes to appoint a new Youth Advisor with consent of the board; the current Youth Advisor Schuyler Dietz can no longer serve.<\/p>\n<p>7.2.4. \u00a0 \u00a0BMO-BHO Code Amendment Update. \u00a0To be given at an upcoming meeting.<\/p>\n<p>7.2.5. \u00a0 \u00a0At-large Representative change. \u00a0Quentin Fleming (formerly At-large 1st Alternate) has become the primary At-large Representative as of July 1st .<\/p>\n<p>7.2.6. \u00a0 \u00a0Candidates running in the Elected Representatives Election. \u00a0Maryam announced the candidates. \u00a0<em>See attached list.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>7.3. \u00a0 \u00a0<u>From Officers<\/u> &#8212; None.<\/p>\n<p>7.4. \u00a0 \u00a0<u>From At-Large &amp; Area Reps.<\/u><\/p>\n<p>Rick Mills (Area 4): A driver lost control on July 4th at El Medio &amp; Miami Way, jumped the curb and went through\u00a0a neighbor&#8217;s front yard.

We are trying to take the existing bike lanes and make them better. Vision Zero Policy: LA City goal is to eliminate all bike and pedestrian fatalities. The focus is on the most vulnerable on the road. Upgrading bike lanes on Temescal Canyon. There was a cyclist killed on Temescal a year ago. Increase the separation between cyclists and traffic on Temescal. The faster the car is travelling the worse the accident. Protective bike lanes on the upper portion of Temescal Canyon, and buffered bike lanes on the lower (southern portion). Protected bike lanes put the bike lane between the curb and parking. Buffered bike lanes are better for cyclists going faster. Buffered bike lanes paint extra lines, creating extra space for cyclists. Taking one of the downhill travel lanes, taking it out, and allocating that space to the buffered areas is one possible option. According to LADOT, the peak hour on Temescal is from 7-8 AM. 684 drivers going down Temescal per hour. They don\u2019t anticipate additional drivers. One left turn lane going from Sunset to Temescal would function the same way. It just wouldn\u2019t provide the opportunity to go into a second lane. At the bottom there will be no changes. The only intersection that may change is Bowdoin. It would be less of an issue if it was a bigger street. We looked at removing the center turn lane, but removing it would be problematic. We cannot remove parking because it\u2019s highly utilized. Nothing has been designed, this is the first time for public comment.<\/p>\n<p>Richard: The traffic is much lighter coming up Temescal than it is going down Temescal. Backups never happen coming up Temescal. Taking a lane from the wrong side. Residents would like to see three left turn lanes from Temescal south onto PCH. Backups there get terrible. 10 years ago, PPCC looked at that, and we were told that PCH isn\u2019t wide enough for a third turn lane, and we couldn\u2019t take anything from the beach. Serious backups happen there. A lane cannot be taken away from that intersection. \u00a0Jessie: CD11 was under the impression that there was more traffic going down than are going up. We can take a look at going the other way.<\/p>\n<p>Gil Dembo: How many riders go up and down that hill? Who is behind this? Why not move the sidewalks back to do this? \u00a0Jessie: The DOT and CD 11 are working together on this. You can\u2019t widen your way out of congestion.<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Niles: What about the six food trucks that park where the buffer will be \u00a0Jessie: We haven\u2019t yet figured out a solution.<\/p>\n<p>Cathy Russell: When they come up, what is going to happen on Sunset? She expressed concern about more bikes on Sunset. \u00a0Rick Mills: Pali High is considering changing where cars park on Temescal. They have good traffic studies to be looked at. \u00a0Audience: Has anyone considered doing up and down in the park or on one side of the street? \u00a0Jessie: That would be very expensive.<\/p>\n<p>Maryam: There are two reasonable suggestions. The cost versus the traffic impact should be weighed. \u00a0Stuart: How will Sunset feed into Temescal? Using the trail is a better idea. Why not do it up the coast? \u00a0Gil Dembo: Please do not do anything without consulting the Community Council. \u00a0Quentin: How reversible would this project be? \u00a0Jessie: It\u2019s just paint. DOT would put in flexible bollards.<\/p>\n<p>Michael: Can you put both bike lanes up and down on the other side? \u00a0Jessie: You could do it both ways. DOT might have a different reasoning for not doing that. \u00a0Audience: Taking a lane from the uphill side is a much better approach.<\/p>\n<p>10.2. \u00a0 \u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Introduction of LAPD Officer Rusty Redican &#8211; officer in charge, new Palisades Beach Detail, and Officer Quenten Blanton<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Officer John \u201cRusty\u201d Redican, partner Quenten: Crime is down. Bike unit goes all over the Palisades, coming up from the beach. Bikes are slower in response times. They have a quad that they will also be riding. There are a variety of resources available, including a helicopter. Community reporting is essential for them to do their job. Cleaning out encampments. Dealing drugs in the Palisades. There is room to help kids, with receptive parents, to help them straighten out.<\/p>\n<p>Board Questions:<\/p>\n<p>Maryam: LAPD officers would come through last year and do sweeps of areas identified by the PPTFH.\u00a0Redican: Yes, we did one this morning. We are going to continue doing them.<\/p>\n<p>Doug (PPTFH): Private security, how is it as a force multiplier?\u00a0Redican: Yes, private security is helpful. Eric Fine has been great- they scan our radios and respond faster than we do. ADT is also good, they don\u2019t respond to calls as much as Palisades Patrol.<\/p>\n<p>Brian Deming: We have a previous hotspot- empty lot at Marquez Pl and Sunset (Bernheimer Gardens). We are getting complaints. There is a chain-link fence. We have had new people in the lot. Private security has been responsive.\u00a0Redican: We need the community to help by providing information.<\/p>\n<p>Maryam: The OPCC has a form that can help provide information. Is that something that we can do for the police?\u00a0Audience question: If private security responds, they don\u2019t report back to the police. Can we email you if private security does handle it?\u00a0Redican: Private security (Palisades Patrol) can\u2019t act as an agent of the police.<\/p>\n<p>Audience Question: On PCH by the tunnel, what are you doing?\u00a0Redican: We have arrested a number of people. The homeless in the area are living in Tuna Canyon to sleep. The sheriffs are doing what they can to clear those areas out.<\/p>\n<p>Audience Question: Police seem to respond to written reports as opposed to email. Should we make a written report when something happens? How can we report it Redican: That which is measured gets dealt with. If a crime takes place, we do need to hear about it in a written report. We want our statistics to reflect crime. Resources go to the areas where there are reports. You can call the non-emergency number (877) ASK-LAPD or the Western LAPD Desk.<\/p>\n<p>Maryam: What happens with a non-emergency call?\u00a0Redican: Non-emergency calls can be responded to urgently. Lock your car doors and homes. There are lots of burglars that will not enter a car that is locked.<\/p>\n<p>10.3. \u00a0 \u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Jessica M.

Calls to the West LA police office desk yield no solution. Only the City Council or the Mayor can fix this problem. Offer callers who can hear the opt-out choice. Those who are hearing-impaired can automatically continue with the hearing impaired tones. We should ask Councilman Bonin\u2019s office to sponsor it. I propose that we take it up with the CD11 office.\u00a0Maryam: This may be added to an upcoming agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Gil Dembo: The Palisadian Post is appealing the Design Review Board decision regarding their proposed identification sign. They took their complaint to the WLAPC. There were many signs in the Palisades in 1960.<\/p>\n<p>Cheryl Zomber: MKPOA had scheduled time to talk about this issue at Councilman Bonin\u2019s office. Maryam Zar\u2019s role was not as a mediator, but as a participant. Marquez Knolls has different needs and concerns. We have had lots of people say they support limiting mansionization. When the motion to oppose the BMO amendment was voted on, the Area 3 representative was not there. It may have been unanimous, but Marquez was not represented. \u00a0Maryam: Tricia Keane of CD11 invited Maryam to attend this meeting. Maryam expressed continuing difficulty understanding the request by Cheryl Zomber. Tricia will be asked to attend an upcoming PPCC meeting to clarify.<\/p>\n<p>12.<strong> \u00a0 Adjournment. \u00a0<\/strong>Maryam Zar adjourned the meeting at approximately 9PM.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ATTACHMENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ITEM 7.2.1: \u00a0LETTER RE 881 ALMA REAL SIGNAGE APPEA<\/strong>L<\/p>\n<p>July 18, 2016<\/p>\n<p>West Los Angeles Area Planning Commission<br \/>\n200 North Spring Street, Room 272<br \/>\nLos Angeles, CA 90012<\/p>\n<p>Re: DIR-2015-1282-DRB-SPP-1A Project @ 881 Alma Real Dr., Pacific Palisades, CA 90272;\u00a0Hearing Date: July 20, 2016<\/p>\n<p>Honorable Commissioners:<\/p>\n<p>The Pacific Palisades Community Council (PPCC) has been the voice of the community for more than forty years. Our public Minutes evidence that on October 25th, 2007, the following motion was passed unanimously:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Pacific Palisades Commercial Village and Neighborhoods Specific Plan was adopted to eliminate visual blight and protect and enhance the unique character of Pacific Palisades by creating a series of design and development standards applicable to all commercial areas of Pacific Palisades. The PPCC hereby reaffirms the community\u2019s support of the Specific Plan in all four commercial areas of Pacific Palisades.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The position of the Pacific Palisades Community Council has not changed. This council, which represents all Palisades neighborhoods through elected representatives and appointed organizational representatives, supports the application of the Specific Plan to Pacific Palisades. Although the Council has not weighed the arguments of the two sides in this appeal, the Pacific Palisades Community Council maintains that planning and zoning regulations, building codes, rules, restrictions, and ordinances that have been established for the good of the community should be applied, upheld and enforced by the Zoning Administrator, Building and Safety, and other governing bodies with jurisdiction over the approval, execution, and enforcement processes. When variances, variations, or exceptions are considered by governmental entities, PPCC&#8217;s position is to support adherence to all legal measures which govern land use, structures, and vegetation.
