Attention Long Beach, Signal Hill, San Pedro & Catalina:
State ID # 1387345 |
(Oct. 10, 2016, 1:25 a.m.) -- Four Councilmembers (Pearce, joined by Price, Andrews and Uranga) added an item to the Oct. 11 City Council agenda that asks city management to provide a report on the feasibility of designating locations where homeless persons could park vehicles in which they live, possibly at local churches.
In their agendizing memo, the four Councilmembers write: RECOMMENDATION: Request City Manager to draft a report on the fon the feasibility of implementing a "Safe Parking" program such as those found in the cities of Santa Barbara and Monterey Bay that would (1) move people who reside in their cars off the street and into safe spaces (2) That those locations would provide basic essential services (3) connect these individuals with programs that will work to move them into permanent housing.

DISCUSSION:
The Councilmembers' agendizing memo leaves unclear if the requested report will be publicly agendized or given to the Mayor and/or Councilmembers outside of routine public view using City Hall's non-transparent "to-from-for" (TFF) memo procedure. The Oct. 11 agenda item first became publicly visible on Friday Oct 7, instead of on Monday Oct. 3, because LB's Council-enacted Municipal Code lets three Councilmembers co-sign a statement adding agenda items as late as noon Friday prior to Tuesday's Council meeting. In this case, the three Councilmembers co-signing that statement (dated Oct. 6) were Pearce, Price and Andrews.
