Karen Bass becomes first woman elected mayor of Los Angeles

BY ERIC HE, CITY NEWS SERVICE

Karen Bass, in her first speech as Los Angeles’ mayor-elect, pledged Thursday to begin addressing the city’s home lessness crisis immediately and acknowledged that the historical significance of being the first woman and second Black person to lead the city was “sinking in.”

“When you do make history, it means that you have extra responsibility,” said Bass, speaking outside the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in front of a crowd of supporters. “You always have to make sure that you maintain excellence in every step of the way.”

Bass, invoked the late Rep. John Lewis in describing how she would approach running the nation’s second-largest city.

“John Lewis used to always say when he was facing a diffi cult situation: `If you couldn’t feel like you knew how to solve a problem, then it is your responsibility to make a way out of no way,”‘ Bass said. “That’s the spirit that drove me to run for mayor, and it’s the spirit through which I will govern.”

Bass, who has represented Los Angeles in the state Assembly and in Congress, will inherit leadership of a city grappling with a scandal that has embroiled City Hall for the past month, after three council members and a top county labor official took part in a recorded conversation in October 2021 that included racist comments and attempts to manipulate redistricting.

Combined with concerns over homelessness, crime and cost of living, “people are just the most pessimistic I’ve seen Angelenos in basically a decade and a half — since the Great Recession,” according to Fernando Guerra, professor of political science at Loyola Marymount University.

Bass pledged to address

each one. She said she would keep a campaign promise and declare a state of emergency over the homelessness crisis on day one. In an interview Thursday morning with KBLA’s Tavis Smiley, she said she would house more than 17,000 people experiencing homelessness in her first year. On crime, Bass sought to create an Office of Community Safety that doesn’t involve law enforcement — and increase investments in “prevention, intervention and the services to prevent crime in the first place.”

“The people of Los Angeles have sent a clear message: It’s time for change and it’s time

for urgency,” Bass said.

Bass stressed that she would “not accept corruption or cronyism,” nor would she tolerate “the sleight of hand or shuffling problems around.”

“I will not accept the notion that this is the way it’s always been done,” Bass said. “If you tell me that this is the way it’s always been done and that means that we’re supposed to continue to do it this way — and we know it’s not working … that will not be acceptable.”

Bass, who takes office Dec. 12, has not announced a chief of staff or transition team yet, but said her transition team would likely stay on perma

nently in her administration. Responding to a question about the Latino community, Bass said her administration would reflect Los Angeles — which is approximately 50% Latino.

Bass offered praise for her opponent, billionaire develop er Rick Caruso after a conten tious campaign, welcoming his supporters in “every aspect of my administration” and adding that she looked forward to working with him in the future. Bass prevailed despite spending around $9 million on her campaign compared to over $100 million by Caruso.

“Our campaign was a

people-powered campaign,” Bass said. “I relied on decades of experience and decades of relationships.”

Caruso, in his concession statement, said the voters had spoken, but he was proud of his campaign.

“There will be more to come from the movement we built, but for now, as a city we need to unite around Mayorelect Bass and give her the support she needs to tackle the many issues we face,” Caruso said. “Congratulations, Karen, and godspeed.”

Outgoing Mayor Eric Garcetti called Bass’ victory a “historic moment and a win for all Angelenos.” Garcetti

said Bass had received “uncon ditional support” throughout the transition period and has already begun preparing with his team on the transfer of power.

“I know that she will lead this city with grace and compassion, and that she’ll lean on her skills as a natural consensus-builder, deep ties to our neighborhoods and community leaders, and her unwavering commitment to equity and justice that has defined her as one of Amer ica’s great visionaries and leaders,” Garcetti said.

Bass, 69, grew up in the midst of the Civil Rights Movement with three brothers in the Venice and Fairfax neighborhoods. She was drawn to community activism after watching the movement on television, volunteering for Robert F. Kennedy’s 1968 presidential campaign when she was 14.

Her organizing career began in 1990, when she founded Community Coali tion, a South Los Angeles social justice group in response to the crack cocaine crisis.

In 2004, Bass was the only Black woman in the Legisla ture when she was elected to the Assembly. Four years later, she became the first Black woman to lead the chamber.

Bass was elected to the House of Representatives in 2010.

Bass said on KBLA that she kept herself focused during the campaign by thinking about what the Black commu nity has been through histori cally, and then referenced Caruso’s advertising blitz.

“I always think about our ancestors and what we’ve been through,” Bass said. “That makes you go: `Look, I can do this.’ I mean, they’re TV ads. Nobody’s physically assaulting me. But I keep my eyes on the prize, and the prize are our folks.”

Renters rejoice: Rent control passes in Pasadena

BY STAFF

Measure H, a Charter Amendment provid ing rent control to the city of Pasadena has passed with the vote current ly at 52.11% yes to 47.89% no.

A massive victory for renters, the campaign was fueled by the Pasadena Tenants Union along with dozens of commu nity groups, unions, and hundreds of local volunteers. Measure H faced incredible opposition from some of the largest corporate landlords in the country, and notably the California Apartment Association and the National and California Associations of Realtors.

The opposition spent approximately $450,000 against the measure, which itself raised a respectable campaign budget of $350,000 from foundations, unions and $79,000 in small-dollar donations from around 700 individual donors.

Over 600 Measure H volunteers knocked over 42,000 doors and called more than 29,000 voters as part of a large-scale, grassroots volun

teer field operation focused on neighbor-to-neighbor voter outreach, as opposed to the opponent’s strategy of reaching voters mainly through television and online advertising.

Measure H was placed on the ballot through 15,000 voter signatures, was written by local tenants, homeown ers, and public interest attor neys experienced in tenant law, and is one of the only citizen’s initiatives in recent Pasadena history.

“This is a win for every renter, and every resident in Pasadena who is tired of watching their longtime neighbors getting priced out. We’ve talked to thousands of people across the city who are ready to keep fighting displacement and unfair evic tions with us,” said Measure H Field Director, Bee Rooney. Rent control in Pasadena comes on the heels of multiple legislative rent control wins in California, but this result at the ballot box has significant implications. Measure H includes effective accountability measures for

bad-actor landlords through the creation of an indepen dent rent board, and it cannot be repealed without another vote of the people.

In the midst of massive rent hikes and the end of the COVID pandemic eviction protections, Measure H will protect tenants facing eviction from bad faith, often corporate, landlords who evict tenants just because they want to rent a unit for more money.

“The community support has been incredible, but not surprising,” said campaign organizer, Ryan Bell, “People are losing their neigh bors, their friends, their classmates to eviction and skyrocketing rents. It’s the time for rent control across all of California, and we hope this lights a spark for other cities to fight for their right to housing.”

Measure H was a people-powered, grassroots campaign, with consulting and strategy directed by San Francisco’s Red Bridge Strategies, which focuses on upstart lefty campaigns.

Black, Mexican families to seek restitution for Section 14 evictions

BY KRISTY RAMIREZ, CITY NEWS SERVICE

Hundreds of Black and Mexican families plan to file claims Thursday seeking millions of dollars in restitution from the city of Palm Springs for being forcibly evicted from the downtown Section 14 neighborhood in the 1950s and 1960s.

Section 14 was the primary residential area for people of color, with the one-square-mile neighbor hood owned by the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians from 1930 to 1965. The evictions began in late 1954 and continued for 12 years through 1966.

Attorneys represent ing evicted families will hold a news conference in Los Angeles Thursday to announce the damages claim, demanding repara tions.

“You will have survi vors of the evictions, who remember them vividly and talking about their experi ences, how happy they were, what those evictions did to them and their families,” Lisa Richardson, a spokes woman for attorneys repre senting the families, told City News Service Wednes

day. “How the city of Palm Springs had their houses bulldozed and had the city fire department set fire to their homes. They will talk about what that experience has been like for them.”

An economist working for Section 14 survivors and descendants, Julianne Malveaux, will also speak during the event about the calculated millions of dollars of harm that the evictions have caused, Richardson said. The attorneys said the overall damages could range into the billions of dollars.

The city of Palm Springs formally apologized in September 2021 for the evictions, and the City Council asked its staff to develop proposals for possible economic invest ments that could act as reparation for the destruc tion of the Section 14 neighborhood. The city also removed a statue of Frank Bogert — who was Palm Springs mayor at the time — from the front of City Hall.

The resolution approved by the council last year stated that “Mayor Bogert and Palm Springs civic

leaders persecuted their lower-income constitu ents who resided on the land owned by local Tribal Members. Attempting to dispossess the Indians of their tribal lands, and erase any blighted neighborhoods that might degrade the city’s resort image, Palm Springs officials devel oped and implemented a plan that included having non-Indian conservators appointed by a local judge to manage the Indians land claiming they were unable to manage it for themselves. The successful implemen tation of this plan resulted in the removal of the city’s people of color and restruc tured the race and class configuration of the city.”

An estimated 200 homes were destroyed in the mass eviction process, according to the city.

Richardson said that despite the city’s actions last year, the city has yet to provide any compensation or restitution to anyone impacted by the evictions. She said there are more than 500 survivors and descendants of those who were evicted.

As long as the United States has negotiated treaties with Indig enous nations, it has broken those treaties. There is a popular tendency to think of these treaties as inanimate arti facts of the distant past. This belief, however, is a symptom of the historical amnesia that continues to relegate presentday Indigenous rights issues to the margins.

Treaties are liiving docu ments, which even today legally bind the United States to the promises it made to Native peoples centuries ago. Treaties also acknowledge the inherent sovereignty of Indig enous nations, a fact that has been disputed and undermined in U.S. courts and Congress since 1831, when the Supreme Court ruled that tribes were “domestic dependent nations” without self-determination.

Of the nearly 370 treaties negotiated between the U.S. and tribal leaders, Stacker has compiled a list of 15 broken treaties negotiated between 1777 and 1868 using news, archival documents, and Indigenous and governmental historical reports.

Treaty With the Dela wares/Treaty of Fort Pitt (1778)

The 1778 Treaty with the Delawares was the first treaty negotiated between the newly formed United States and an Indigenous nation. The Lenape (Delaware) were already being forced from their ancestral homelands in New York City, the lower Hudson Valley, and much of New Jersey when the Dutch settled there in the 17th century. The treaty stipulated peace between the Lenape and the U.S. as well as mutual support against the British. However, this supposed peace did not last long: In 1782, Pennsylvania militiamen murdered almost 100 Lenape citizens at Gnadenhutten, forcing the Lenape out toward Ohio.

Treaty of Fort Stanwix (1784)

Weakened by the constant encroachment of white settlers after the Revolutionary War, the Iroquois Confederacy was forced to cede part of New York and a large portion of presentday Pennsylvania in the Treaty of Fort Stanwix. In return, the U.S. promised to protect tribal lands from further settlement by white colonists. In the following years, the U.S. did not enforce the treaty terms, and the lands inhabited by the Iroquois Confederacy contin ued to shrink.

Treaty of Hopewell (1785-86)

The Treaty of Hopewell includes three treaties signed by the U.S. and the Cherokee, Choctaw, and Chickasaw

Broken US-Indigenous treaties: A timeline

BY ELIZA SIEGEL, STACKER

Nations at General Andrew Pickens’ plantation following the Revolutionary War. The treaties supposedly offered the three tribes the protection and friendship of the U.S. and promised no future settlement on tribal lands. Despite these terms, the encroachment of white settlers onto treaty terri tory was already underway, and future treaties would shrink Cherokee, Choctaw, and Chickasaw lands even further.

Treaty of Canandaigua/ Pickering Treaty (1794)

In 1794, the U.S. govern ment and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, or Six Nations (comprising the Mohawk, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, Seneca, and Tuscarora Nations of New York), signed the Treaty of Canandaigua. In exchange for the Confederacy’s allyship after the Revolutionary War, the U.S. returned over a million acres of Iroquois land that had been previously ceded in the Fort Stanwix Treaty. The Canandaigua Treaty also recognized the sovereignty of the Six Nations to govern themselves and set their own laws.

Despite this apparent act of friendship, the land returned to the Six Nations was lost to U.S. expansion, and the tribes were forced to relocate. While the Onondaga, Seneca, Tusca rora, and Oneida stayed on reservations in New York, the Mohawk and Cayuga moved into Canada.

Treaty of Greenville (1795)

An increasing number of white settlers moved into the Great Lakes region in the 1780s, escalating tension with estab lished Indigenous nations. The Shawnee, Delaware, Miami, Ottawa, Ojibwe, and Potawa tomi Nations banded together as the Northwestern Confed eracy and assembled an armed resistance to prevent further colonization.

In 1794, a large contin gent of the U.S. military, led by General “Mad” Anthony Wayne, was tasked with putting an end to the North western Confederacy’s resis tance. The Confederacy was defeated in the Battle of Fallen Timbers and forced to sue for peace. The Treaty of Greenville saw the tribes of the North western Confederacy cede large tracts of land in presentday Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Illinois. The treaty was soon broken, however, by white settlers who continued to expand their reach into treaty lands.

Treaty with the Sioux (1805)

In 1805, General Zebulon Pike mounted an expedi tion up the Mississippi River without informing the U.S. government. Pike met with a

group of Dakota leaders, who allegedly ceded 100,000 acres of land to build a fort and promote U.S. trade in exchange for an unspecified amount of money. Of the seven Dakota leaders, only two signed the treaty. Though Pike valued the purchase at $200,000 in his journal, he left only $200 worth of gifts upon signing. The president never proclaimed the treaty, a necessary step that makes treaties official, and the U.S. adjusted the purchase price to $2,000.

Treaty of Fort Wayne (1809)

In the Treaty of Fort Wayne, the Potawatomi, Delaware, Miami, and Eel River tribes ceded 2.5 million acres of their lands in present-day Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio for roughly 2 cents an acre, under pressure from William Henry Harrison, the then-governor of Indiana. Not long after, Harrison led an attack on a camp of followers of Tenkswatawa, the Shawnee Prophet, and Tecumseh, who resisted the encroachment of white settlers on the Ohio Valley Nations. The violence spurred by this attack persisted into the War of 1812.

Indian Removal Act (1830)

Though not technically a treaty, the Indian Removal Act of 1830 functioned as a displacement mechanism and was largely responsible for the treaties created over the following decades. President Andrew Jackson had long been a violent proponent of the forced relocation of Indigenous tribes from the southeast to western areas, leading military efforts against the Creek Nation in 1814 and negotiating many treaties which dispossessed tribes of their lands.

The Indian Removal Act created a process by which the president could exchange tribal lands in the eastern United States for federally designated land west of the Mississippi River by negotiating removal treaties with Indigenous nations. While the act was framed as a peaceful and voluntary process, tribes that did not “cooperate” were made to comply through military force, cheated or tricked out of their land, or subjected to the violence of local white settlers.

Treaty of New Echota (1835)

Following the passage of the Indian Removal Act, facing tremendous pressure to move west, a small group of Chero kees not authorized to act on behalf of the Cherokee people negotiated the Treaty of New Echota. The treaty gave up all Cherokee lands east of the Mississippi River in exchange for $5 million and new territo ry in Oklahoma. Even though

most Cherokee people consid ered the agreement fraudulent, and the Cherokee National Council formally rejected it in 1836, Congress ratified the treaty.

Two years later, the Treaty of New Echota was used to justify the forced removal of the Cherokee people. In 1838, roughly 16,000 Cherokees were rounded up by the U.S. military and forced to march 5,043 miles to their new lands. Over 4,000 Cherokee people died on the Trail of Tears.

Treaty with the Potawa tomi (1836)

In 1832, the Potawatomi Nation signed a peace treaty with the U.S. ensuring the Potawatomi people’s safety on their reservations in Indiana. Still, it wasn’t long before the U.S. broke this treaty. Further negotiations followed, but in 1836, the Potawatomi were forced to sell their land for around $14,000 and move westward. Though many Potawatomi tried to stay, in 1938, the U.S. government enforced their removal by way of a 660-mile forced march from Indiana to Kansas. Of the 859 Potawatomi people who began what would later be known as the Trail of Death, 40 died, many of whom were children.

Fort Laramie Treaty

(1851)

The 1851 Fort Laramie Treaty “defined” the terri tory of the Great Sioux Nation (Dakotas, Lakotas, and Nakotas) in North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Montana, in exchange for the creation of roads and railways and the promise of the U.S. to protect the Sioux from American citizens. Nevertheless, settlers and the U.S. military violated the treaty and invaded Lakota lands. Disputes over the treaty’s integrity persist, as evidenced by the building of the Dakota Access Pipeline, which was constructed on treaty lands near the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation. In 2016, water protectors and activists estab lished a camp at Standing Rock to prevent the pipeline’s construction, where they were subjected to attack dogs and other methods of excessive force by law enforcement. The pipeline is still operational.

Treaties of Traverse des Sioux and Mendota (1851)

Under threat of military violence from the increasing numbers of white settlercolonists moving into Minne sota, the Dakota and Mendota were forced to cede millions of acres of land in the Treaty of Traverse des Sioux and Mendota in exchange for reservations and $1,665,000— the equivalent of about 7.5 cents per acre. However, the

Dakota and Mendota never received either provision. The representatives from the U.S. government who negotiated the treaty tricked the Dakota representatives into signing a third document, which reallo cated the funds meant for the Dakota and Mendota to traders to fulfill invented “debts.” The U.S. Senate further violated the treaty by eliminating the provision for reservations.

Land Cession Treaty with the Ojibwe/Treaty of Wash ington (1855)

In the 1855 Treaty of Washington, the Ojibwe ceded nearly all of their remaining land not already lost to the U.S. during previous treaties. This new treaty also created the Leech Lake and Mille Lacs Reservations and allotted reservation land to individual families. In doing so, the U.S. attempted to subvert the Ojibwe’s traditional relation ship with the land by instating a system of private property, as well as forcing the Ojibwe people to become farmers, a departure from their historical lifestyle of hunting, fishing, and gathering. However, it was mutually agreed that the Ojibwe would be able to continue hunting and fishing on ceded territory.

Unfortunately, in the decades following the signing of the treaty, the state of Minnesota outlawed hunting and harvesting without a license on off-reservation land, a direct violation of the treaty. Despite the Supreme Court’s reaffirmation of the Ojibwe’s hunting and gathering rights on ancestral lands in 1999, conflicts over the use of these lands, including for pipeline development, are ongoing.

HED/ Broken US-Indige nous treaties: A timeline Medicine Lodge Treaty (1867)

Two years after the culmi nation of the Civil War, violence against Plains tribes instigated by westward-moving white settlers came to a head. More than 5,000 representatives of the Kiowa, Comanche, Arapaho, Kiowa-Apache, and Southern Cheyenne nations met with U.S. government delegates to ostensibly nego tiate peace. Ultimately, the treaty relocated the Coman ches and Kiowas onto one

reservation and the Cheyennes and Arapahoes onto another. Even though the participat ing tribes never approved the treaty, Congress ratified it in 1868 and then quickly began violating the terms, with holding payments, preventing hunting, and cutting down the size of reservations.

In 1903, Kiowa chief Lone Wolf sued the U.S. for defraud ing the tribes who participated in the Medicine Lodge Treaty. In a devastating ruling that would have grave consequenc es for Indigenous land rights, the Supreme Court ruled that Congress could legally “abrogate the provisions of an Indian treaty.” In other words, any treaty made between the U.S. and Native American tribes could be broken by Congress, rendering treaties essentially powerless.

Fort Laramie Treaty (1868)

The Fort Laramie Treaty was negotiated with the Sioux (Dakota, Lakota, and Nakota Nations) and the Arapaho Tribe. It established the Great Sioux Reservation, which comprised all of the South Dakota west of the Missouri River, and protected the sacred Black Hills, designating the area as “unceded Indian Terri tory.” It only took until 1874 for the U.S. to violate the terms of the treaty when gold was discovered in the Black Hills. The boundaries outlined in the treaty were hastily redrawn to allow white Americans to mine the area.

In the 1980 case United States v. Sioux Nation of Indians, the Supreme Court ruled that the U.S. had ille gally expropriated the Black Hills, and that the Sioux were entitled to over $100 million in reparations. The Sioux turned down the money, saying that the land had never been for sale. Conflicts over the U.S.’s illegal usage of Sioux lands outlined in the Fort Laramie Treaty are ongoing. In 2018, the Rosebud Sioux Tribe and the Fort Belknap Indian Community sued the Trump administration for violations concerning the permitting of the Keystone XL Pipeline, which was shut down in June 2021.

Lindsey Horvath defeats Bob Hertzberg in LA County Board of Supervisors race

BY CITY NEWS SERVICE

Lindsey Horvath will take office next month as the new Los Angeles County supervisor representing the Third District, pledging to repeat her success as West Hollywood’s mayor and City Council member in reducing homelessness.

Horvath declared victory Thursday night, 37 minutes before her opponent, Sen. Bob Hertzberg, conceded.

“I am humbled and honored that the voters have chosen me to serve as their next supervisor,” Horvath said in a statement posted on Twitter at 6:48 p.m. after updated figures released the Los Angeles County RegistrarRecorder/County Clerk’s office increased her lead to 19,542 votes.

“Their confidence and support fueled our peoplepowered campaign across the finish line and I could not be more grateful for the opportu nity to represent the people of District 3. The significance of this victory is not lost on me.

“Voters chose a new path forward -- a path where we humanely and effectively solve our homelessness crisis, a path where we invest in meaningful public safety solu tions, a path where we fight unequivocally for full repro ductive freedom, and a path where we urgently protect our environment and create a sustainable future for genera tions to come.”

Horvath called her victory a major upset. Thursday’s ballot count gave her a 52.24%-47.76% lead, 227,561208,019. She had a 14,950-vote lead through Wednesday’s vote count, 212,271-197,321, 51.82%-48.18%.

Hertzberg conceded defeat at 7:25 p.m.

“With the most recent ballot update, it is clear to me

that our next county supervi sor will be Lindsey Horvath,” Hertzberg said in a video posted to Twitter. “I want to say in the most humble and sincere manner that I want her to be the most successful L.A. County supervisor in the history of our county.

“The challenges we face in this county are nothing less than extraordinary and it will take someone with Lindsey’s work ethic to be successful.”

Horvath’s victory means the five-member board will continue to be all-female, a status it has had since 2020 when Holly Mitchell defeated then-Los Angeles Council man Herb Wesson to succeed Supervisor Mark RidleyThomas, who was barred from running for reelection because of term limits.

Horvath succeeds Super visor Sheila Kuehl, who opted not to run for reelection.

Horvath has been a member of West Hollywood’s City Council since 2015 and its mayor from 2015-16 and 2020-21. She listed homeless ness as a top priority of her campaign.

“As a mayor and council member, I have taken action to successfully get 80% of my community’s unhoused population off the streets and into housing and services,” Horvath wrote in her official candidate statement. “As supervisor, I will get the bureaucracy out of the way, create accountability, and expand partnerships with experts who know how to help people off the streets and into supportive housing.”

Horvath said she helped spearhead an “intersectional approach” to homelessness in West Hollywood, incor porating housing, services and community safety, while pushing for the production of

transitional, supportive and long-term affordable housing.

Horvath also called for more funding for mental eval uation teams that pair trained social workers with public safety officials responding to relevant calls for service.

Horvath also vowed to “prioritize your safety and fight for additional resources to provide care and prevent crime from happening in the first place.”

The Third District covers a majority of the San Fernando Valley, stretching from Westlake Village and Malibu to Calabasas, West Hills, Porter Ranch, San Fernando, Panorama City and North ridge. It also includes West Hollywood, Beverly Hills and Santa Monica.

The district’s boundaries changed dramatically during the county’s most recent redistricting effort, giving it a larger swath of the Valley. The move drew the ire of some observers -- including Kuehl -- who felt the change gave Hertzberg an edge in the election, given his longtime representation of the area in Sacramento.

Horvath was endorsed by Kuehl, Mitchell and Supervi sors Janice Hahn and Hilda Solis, along with Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti and the Los Angeles County Demo cratic Party.

Hertzberg has been in the state Senate since 2014 and previously served in the Assembly, including a stint as speaker.

Hertzberg was endorsed by Supervisor Kathryn Barger, as well as Gov. Gavin Newsom, Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Califor nia, Attorney General Rob Bonta, the Los Angeles County Federation of Labor and Reps. Tony Cardenas, Brad Sherman and Norma Torres.

LA County returns to ‘strongly recommending’ masks indoors as COVID cases rise

With COVID-19 infec tion rates sharply increasing since the beginning of November, Los Angeles County has returned to “strongly recommending” that people wear masks in all indoor public settings.

The recommendation falls short of a masking mandate, but masks are still required indoors at health-care and congregate-care facilities, for anyone exposed to the virus in the past 10 days, and at locations where they are required by the operator, county Health Officer Dr. Muntu Davis said Thursday.

For the past few months, indoor masking has been a matter of personal prefer ence, unless individual busi nesses or locations chose to require them. The county shifted back to “strongly recommending” indoor maskwearing last Thursday when the local seven-day average of daily new COVID-19 infec tions rose to 100 per 100,000 residents, up from 86 per 100,000 a week ago. The rate the previous week was 65 per 100,000 residents.

“Now it is strongly recom mended that all individuals wear a high- quality mask that fits well in the follow ing settings: in public indoor spaces; when using public transit, including buses, rideshares, taxis and medical transport; correctional and detention facilities; and homeless and emergency shelters,” Davis said.

The increasing case rate mirrored the steady rises seen in daily reported case numbers and hospitaliza tions since the beginning of November.

Davis said the county is

currently reporting about 1,500 new cases per day, up from 1,300 per day a week ago and up 52% since Nov. 1. He noted that the reported cases only represent a portion of actual infections occurring in the county since many residents rely on at-home tests that are not reported to health officials, while many more don’t get tested at all.

Average daily COVIDrelated hospital admissions are averaging 97 per day, up 26% from 77 per day last week, and a 54% jump since Nov. 1, Davis said.

As of last Thursday, the number of COVID-positive patients in county hospitals rose to 648, up from 589 the previous day. Of those patients, 77 were being treated in intensive care, up from 75 a day earlier.

Health officials have said previously that roughly 40% of the patients were actually admitted for COVID-related issues, while the rest were admitted for other reasons but tested positive at the hospital.

Daily reported virusrelated deaths remain rela tively low, at about eight per day, but Davis said with the increases in case rates and hospitalizations, that number could begin to climb.

Health officials have been warning of a third straight winter surge of COVID-19 cases, noting the increased risk of transmission as people spend more time indoors due to colder weather and the winter holidays. Davis on Thursday also noted the continued threat of new variants emerging that can spread more rapidly from person to person, even those

who are vaccinated.

He again urged residents to get vaccinated or receive the latest available booster, which is engineered to combat the current Omicron variants. He also insisted on the safety effects of masks, citing a recent Harvard University study of Massa chusetts school districts following the lifting of mask mandates on campuses.

According to Davis, the study found that districts lifting mask mandates had a COVID infection rate of 128 per 1,000 people, while those with masking had a rate of 66 per 1,000.

He urged residents to exercise caution over the Thanksgiving and other winter holidays, particularly while attending large gather ings.

“We are grateful this year to have the tools that allow us to gather with a lot of safety,” he said. “It will mean however that all of us likely will need to take some common sense precautions to avoid future disruptions and the spread of illness.

He said that includes being up to date on all vacci nations, including COVID and flu shots,

The county on Thursday reported another 1,949 infections, giving the county a cumulative total from throughout the pandemic of 3,513,008.

Another 10 virus-related fatalities were reported, giving the county an overall death toll of 34,091.

The seven-day average daily rate of people testing positive for the virus was 6.8% on Thursday, up from 5.7% a week ago.

WHEREAS, on July 18, 2017, the El Monte City Council (the “City Council”) adopted Ordinance No. 2914, establishing El Monte Municipal Code (EMMC) Chapter 17.88 – Freeway Overlay Zone (the “Overlay Zone”) and seven (7) overlay areas in which bill boards would be allowed; and

WHEREAS, on December 17, 2019, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2961, adding an additional three (3) overlay areas, for a total of ten (10) areas; and

WHEREAS, on July 20, 2022, Kevin Donavan of All Vision, LLC (the “Applicant”) submitted an application for Design Review No. 18-22 and Development Agreement No. 06-22, to construct a digital billboard (the “Proposed Project”); and

WHEREAS, the requests were made pursuant to the re quirements of Chapters 17.122 (Design and Minor Review) and 17.129 (Development Agreements) of the El Monte Municipal Code (EMMC); and

WHEREAS, the full Development Agreement is attached to this Ordinance as Exhibit A; and

WHEREAS, on October 11, 2022, the El Monte Planning Com mission (the “Planning Commission”) held a full and fair public hear ing and adopted Resolution No. 3644, recommending the City Coun cil approve Design Review No. 18-22 for the billboard’s aesthetics

WHEREAS, notices of the Planning Commission and City Council public hearings were placed in a local newspaper and mailed to all property owners in accordance with the EMMC, and all interested persons were given full opportunity to be heard and present evidence.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL MONTE, CALIFORNIA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOL LOWS:

SECTION 1 – RECITALS. The recitals above are true and cor rect and incorporated herein by reference;

SECTION 2 – GENERAL PLAN. The 2011 General Plan land use designation for the Subject Property is “Gateway Specific Plan.” The General Plan does not specifically identify digital billboards as a potential revenue source. However, there are other areas of the General Plan that discuss the need for new revenue sources to implement City policies and support programs. Therefore, the pro posed digital billboard is consistent with the General Plan.

SECTION 3 – ZONING. The Subject Property is located within the SP-1 (Gateway Specific Plan) zone. The surrounding zoning and land uses of the adjacent properties are as follows:

• North: SP-1; El Monte Bus Station and associated parking areas

• East: SP-1; Vacant lot used for vehicle parking

• South: Freeway ROW; I-10 Freeway

• West: SP-1; Fletcher Park

SECTION 4 – ENVIRONMENTAL. In accordance with the cri teria and authority contained in the California Environmental Qual ity Act (CEQA) of 1970 and the CEQA Guidelines as amended, an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) was circulated from April 7, 2017 to May 8, 2017 to establish the Free way Overlay Zone. On July 18, 2017, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2914 approving the Freeway Overlay Zone. A total of four (4) mitigation measures were incorporated in the MND to reduce the impacts of any future billboards to a “Less Than Signifi cant” level. These mitigation measures have been incorporated in Exhibit A, Conditions of Approval, of City Council Resolution No. 10399, approving Design Review No. 18-22. Therefore, no further environmental analysis is required.

SECTION 5 – DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT FINDINGS. Pur suant to EMMC Section 17.129.090, the City Council approves De velopment Agreement No. 06-22, based upon the following findings:

A. The Development Agreement will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare or injurious to the City;

Finding of Fact:

The Proposed Project and Development Agreement contain all req uisite provisions set forth therein. In addition, the Proposed Project and Development Agreement will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare through the enforcement and imple mentation of Conditions of Approval and mitigation measures. Fur ther, prior to the issuance of City development permits and/or the issuance of a final completion of work, the Building and Safety Divi sion, Engineering/Public Works Division, Planning Division and City Attorney Office’s conditions and requirements must be met, which will protect and preserve the health, safety and general welfare.

B. The Development Agreement will have a positive effect on the orderly development of Subject Property or the preservation of property of neighboring property values;

Finding of Fact:

The Subject Property has a General Plan Land Use Designation of “Gateway Specific Plan”. This designation is located on the north side of the I-10 Freeway and areas surrounding the El Monte Sta tion. The Gateway Specific Plan calls for the area to be developed with an urban mixed-use center with housing centered around the El Monte Station and multi-story buildings along Santa Anita Avenue. However, the Subject Property is also to continue to be used by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority (LACMTA) for bus maintenance and parking. Furthermore, the pro posed billboard will only occupy the southeast corner of the Subject Property. The overwhelming majority of the Subject Property will still allow for bus maintenance and parking. The Proposed Project and Development Agreement will not adversely affect the orderly development of properties in the area or the preservation of land values in the vicinity.

C. The Development Agreement will provide sufficient ben efits to the community to justify entering into the agreement;

Finding of Fact:

The Development Agreement will provide extensive community benefits in the form of general fund revenues. These revenues can be allocated to a wide range of City programs and projects. The Applicant will be required to pay a one (1) time processing and developer fees of $100,000. In addition, the Applicant will subject quarterly contributions to the City for a period of 30 years. The total base amount of to be collected during that period is $3,050,000.

However, if ad revenues exceed base projections, the total amount collected may be even greater. The City will also have access to use the billboard for public service announcements.

D. The Development Agreement is consistent with the pur pose, goals and policies of the General Plan and any applicable Specific Plan;

Finding of Fact:

The General Plan Land Use Designation for the Subject Property is “Gateway Specific Plan”. This designation is located on the north side of the I-10 Freeway and areas surrounding the El Monte Sta tion. The Gateway Specific Plan calls for the area to be developed with an urban mixed-use center with housing centered around the El Monte Station and multi-story buildings along Santa Anita Avenue. However, the Subject Property is also to continue to be used by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority (LACMTA) for bus maintenance and parking. Furthermore, the proposed billboard will only occupy the southeast corner of the Subject Property. The overwhelming majority of the Subject Property will still allow for bus maintenance and parking.

The General Plan does not specifically identify digital bill boards as a potential revenue source. However, there are other areas of the Plan that discuss the need for new revenue sources to implement City policies and support programs. Examples from the Economic Development Element include the following:

• Introduction: Designing a Prosperous Economy and Increase Local Revenues – attracting and expanding economic activity through revitalization efforts, increasing business value, im proving sales and generating new revenues;

• Goal ED-1: Policy ED-1.5 – Funding. Explore, develop and use alternative funding sources to pay for and provide incen tives for economic development activities for which the City lacks sufficient resources; and

• Goal ED-3: An improved El Monte Businesses environment that attracts new businesses, investment, new jobs and in creased revenues to El Monte.

E. The proposed installation site is compatible with the uses and structures on the site and in the surrounding area;

Finding of Fact:

The proposed location for the billboard is adjacent to the I-10 Free way right-of-way. The nearest structures are one (1) story struc tures used for bus maintenance and storage. They do not have any distinct architectural style and are not highly visible form the I-10 Freeway or Santa Anita Avenue. The proposed billboard will be compatible with the surrounding area.

F. The proposed billboard will not create a traffic or safety problem, including problems associated with onsite access circula tion or visibility;

Finding of Fact:

The proposed location for the billboard is adjacent to the I-10 Free way right-of-way. Traveling westbound, the billboard will be located after vehicles entering the freeway from Santa Anita Avenue have already merged with travel lanes. The next exit is more than onehalf (½) mile away. In addition, the base of the billboard will be out side the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority (LAC MTA) fenced area for bus maintenance and parking. Therefore, the

The Bidder, by submitting their electronic proposal, agrees to and certifies under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California, that the certification, forms and affidavits submitted as part of this proposal are true and correct.

2022 Public Health Goals Report on Water Quality

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The purpose of the hearing is for Pasa dena City Council to consider staff’s recommendation to accept and approve the 2022 Public Health Goals (“PHG”) Report.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City Council will hold a public hearing to receive testimony, oral and written, and make a deter mination on Pasadena Water and Power’s 2022 PHG Report. The hearing is scheduled for:

Date: December 5, 2022 Time: 5:00 p.m.

Place: Pasadena City Hall Council Chambers, Room S249 100 North Garfield Avenue

California Health and Safety Code Section 116470 (b) requires water utilities that serve more than 10,000 service connections to prepare a PHG Report every three years in addition to the annual Consumer Confidence Report. The PHG Report must contain information on the “detection” of any contaminants at concentrations greater than the PHG or the Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (“MCLG”) set for the contaminant. The purpose of the legislation, which establishes this requirement, is to provide consumers with information on lev els of contaminants that are even below the enforceable mandatory Maximum Contaminant Level (“MCL”), so consumers are aware of whatever risks that might be posed by the presence of such con stituents.

• PHG – The Public Health Goal is a non-enforceable goal. It is a “risk assessment” value that estimates the lowest concentration of a substance which would not pose a sig nificant public health risk. It is determined solely on health effects. The PHG is set by the California Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Environmental Health Haz ard Assessment.

• MCLG – The Maximum Contaminant Level Goal is a non-enforceable goal. It is a “risk assessment” value that estimates the lowest concentration of a substance which would not pose a significant public health risk. It is deter mined solely on health effects. The MCLG is set by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

• MCL – The Maximum Contaminant Level is a legally en forceable standard. It is a “risk management” value which is as close to the PHG or MCLG as technologically and economically feasible. For example, if the PHG is set at a concentration that is too small to measure, the MCL can not be set at the PHG. If the Best Available Technology (“BAT”) for the removal of a contaminant can only reduce the concentration to a certain amount, the MCL cannot be set below that value. All Community Water Systems (“CWS”) must comply with the MCL.

PUBLIC INFORMATION: Any interested party or their representa tive may appear at the meeting and comment on the project. Writ ten comments may also be mailed to the City Clerk’s office (100 N. Garfield Avenue, Room S228, Pasadena, CA 91101) for transmittal to the City Council. If you wish to challenge this matter in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you or someone else raised at the public hearing described in this notice, or written cor respondence delivered to the hearing body, at or prior to the public hearing.
