Council approves several routine items; clarifies small grant for Imethal School
Summary
Los Angeles City Council approved multiple consent and non-hearing items, including items 3–8 and 9–18, approved item 1 with 12 ayes, confirmed item 20 (a CRA-supported child-care project), and corrected a clerical funding error for Imethal School to $2,500.
The Los Angeles City Council approved a series of routine consent and non-hearing items Wednesday and recorded a technical funding correction for a small community beautification grant.
The clerk opened and closed the roll for items 3 through 8; the clerk recorded 11 ayes and the items were approved. Items 9 through 18 were then called; the roll showed 11 ayes and those items were approved. Item 1 later returned to the floor with 12 members present and was approved (12 ayes).
Item 20, a project the Council President described as a child-care facility assembled with Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) assistance, was praised by Council Member Reyes as “a great facility” and was approved after the roll was called. The transcript indicates the project is a child-care facility located “across the street from [a] grammar school,” assembled with housing corporation partners; the specific school was not named in the discussion.
Council Member LaVonge (spelling per clerk roll) raised a technical correction for item 13: the agenda listed $25,000 but the motion and intent were for $2,500 to support Imethal School’s community beautification landscaping project. The clerk corrected the record and the item was approved as clarified.
The council also handled routine administrative items including approval of minutes, commendatory resolutions, motions for posting and referral, and an excused absence request for a council member’s city business.
