QJ - Prez and VP on what they do to help clarify. VP is the fill in on what is happening within the city. Charter Reform to prep for this meeting, non profit getting NC’s involved in the charter process and updated us on what is going on. Challenge is the process is in progress, and final report is going to city council to decide what goes to the ballot. Feedback period is over, now will go to the city council for the next phase. Waiting phase on the reform commission. CT - Prez and VP will support each other, chairperson will stay for committees - on the charter we don’t have a ton of clarity, and we might need a CIS within land use to help reform planning committee. Stakeholder statement has closed open discussion so once plan is submitted it goes through the council file and then we can write a CIS - timing to make sure this gets done. Quorum is 8 people, admin on this doesn’t exactly work so we will pass an update to have 50%+1 of non vacated seats to get quorum, waiting for empower LA to come back to us on if this is an issue. A good thing is voting could be less than 8 bc not everyone could vote. Action Item - Who is writing a CIS and by when will be tied to Number 6 of today’s agenda. Editar

A couple of opportunities, 1 - huge event but only a few number of people out in the tents and WANC didn’t see a lot of people - Mobility Programs, Charles Drew School of Medicine UCLA who have a grant and want community feedback. XM opinion clinics were out in the complex and the tents were 3 /4 minutes away from the courts - there was no messaging or direction on telling people that the tents were there. Heather Hutt had 6 people, we saw Jonathan but The Adams Event for NBA closed the street - they were charging 50 a bracelet, no one was able to join from the community and businesses in the area were not allowed join. The businesses were not informed and the gathering spot was the sponsor. Action Item - What happened on this, residents and business were impacted and gave feedback as well as community was also underserved.
