The Los Angeles City Public Works Committee voted to approve, as amended, a motion concerning the impacts of the Vincent Thomas Bridge deck replacement project.
Council members McOsker and Yaroslavsky sponsored the motion, read into the record as “item number 3.” During the meeting a committee member offered an amendment on behalf of Council District 15 that would add the Port of Los Angeles (POLA) to each of the item’s moving clauses and specifically add POLA to recommendation number 2.
The amended motion, as read, instructs the Port of Los Angeles, the Bureau of Engineering, the Bureau of Street Services, the Department of Building and Safety and the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT), with assistance from the City Administrative Officer and other relevant departments, to report back with an analysis. The transcript does not record the full text of the requested analysis; it retains the phrase that staff should “report back with an analysis including” but does not list the analytic elements in the excerpted record.
The committee approved the item as amended by roll call: Council members Hernandez, Padilla and Hutt each recorded “yes.” The transcript records no public speakers on the agenda item and no additional recorded debate about the amendment’s substance or the requested analysis timeline.
