Council approves $1.7 million settlement and orders hearing in long‑running Victory Roadhouse matter
Summary
Following closed session, the council approved a $1.7 million settlement in Magellan Harmon v. LAPD and voted to set aside a 1999 decision in the Dino’s Victory Roadhouse matter and schedule a public hearing.
In open session following a closed session, the Los Angeles City Council disclosed two actions the body had taken behind closed doors.
The council approved a settlement in the case Magellan Harmon et al. v. Los Angeles Police Department for $1,700,000. The settlement was opened for a roll call and approved with 10 ayes.
On a separate closed-session recommendation the council voted to set aside and vacate the Dec. 15, 1999 decision in the matter of Dino’s Victory Roadhouse, to set a public hearing on the matter and to instruct the city clerk to publish notice of that hearing. That recommendation was approved by roll call with 10 ayes.
Both items were reported out in open session immediately after the council reconvened; the meeting record shows the roll-call tallies and the clerk’s directions for next steps.
