Supervisors call for review of Los Padrinos depopulation plan
By Joe Taglieri joet@beaconmedianews.com
In response to a court ordered plan submitted last week to reduce the number of youth detainees at Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors instructed the chief probation officer Tuesday to review other options for depopulating the troubled facility.
Supervisors cited an April 24 meeting of the county's Probation Oversight Commission that yielded a broader set of recommendations intended to safely reduce the Downey juvenile hall's population, compared with the strategy submitted Friday by Chief Probation Officer Guillermo Viera Rosa to move youth to other facilities.
Earlier in April, LA Superior Court Judge Michael Espinoza directed the Probation Department to submit a plan to depopulate Los Padrinos. The facility has been operating for several months despite a shutdown order by state regulators, who deemed it unsuitable to house youth.
"The Probation Department has made it clear that moving youth to other facilities is the primary
strategy they plan to deploy to comply with the Judge’s order," according to a statement from Supervisor Janice Hahn's office. "However, there is an opportunity to do more."
The commission's April 24 recommendations included considering some youth for release and expediting the transfer to other facilities of detainees who have already been sentenced. A motion Tuesday by Hahn and Supervisor Lindsey Horvath called on the department to consider these and additional recommendations.
While the Probation Department plan would reduce the facility's popula-
tion from 278 to 175, Hahn wants the number reduced to 100.
"The Probation Department is going to need to move youth from Los Padrinos to other Probation facilities, but that shouldn't be the only strategy we rely on," Hahn said in a statement. "Our Probation Oversight Commission has put forward thoughtful recommendations to reduce the number of young people coming into our custody and work with the courts to identify youth who can and should be safely released with supportive programs or
ankle monitors. Our Probation Department needs to consider all these strategies and if there are any they won't pursue, they need to be transparent about why."
In addition to considering some youth for monitored release, the commission also suggested an overhaul to the intake process in an effort to slow the influx of new detainees and relocating lower-risk boys awaiting sentencing to Probation Department camps.
Commissioners and supervisors also called for evaluating youth detainees
LA County board seeks better emergency prep at Mirador
Apartments
By Joe Taglieri joet@beaconmedianews.com
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday called for improved emergency preparedness and response for the Mirador Apartments in Altadena after deficiencies were experienced by residents during the Eaton Fire.
The approved motion by Board Chair Kathryn Barger calls for a focused effort by county agencies to provide better assistance during future emergencies for Mirador residents, who are older adults, people with disabilities, mobility issues and medical conditions and formerly unhoused county residents.
"Recently,concerns regarding the residents of the Mirador Apartments ... shared that they had little to no assistance during the storms and were left to fend for themselves," according to the motion that the board will consider Tuesday.
According to the motion, buildingmanagement notified residents they could safely return 15 days after being evacuated amid the intense firestorm fueled by hurricane-force winds the night of Jan. 7. Upon their return, Mirador residents found that the building was unsafe and still full of ash, dust and the heavy odor of smoke.
The motion directs the Los Angeles County Department of Aging and Disabilities to directly engage with the senior residents at the apartment complex. County workers "will assess their needs, enhance support systems and improve emergency response planning tailored to their circumstances," according to Barger's office.
If adopted, the motion will also require county agencies to explore methods to improve emergency
“Many residents of the Mirador Apartments were left to navigate a dangerous situation on their own, despite being among the most medically and physically vulnerable in our communities,” said Barger said in a statement. “My motion seeks accountability and concrete improvements to ensure safety isn’t compromised in future emergencies.”

Scrappy A520827
Scrappy is a 20-pound chihuahua/hound mix with a heart as big as his ears—and trust us, those ears are epic. Sometimes they even get adorably stuck behind his head, and it's impossible not to smile. This sweet, medium-energy pup is all about building deep bonds. Once he trusts you, Scrappy becomes the ultimate cuddle buddy, happiest curled up beside you for a nap or offering his signature paw-shake. Scrappy has been in a foster home with a Pasadena Humane volunteer, and he’s gotten a great report. He’s fully house-trained, cratesavvy (especially with some calming tunes), and knows a few solid commands like “sit,” “shake,” and “crate.” Scrappy’s ideal match is someone patient, consistent, and ready to love a quirky, devoted companion who just wants to be near his person. If you're looking for a pint-sized pal with a giant personality and unforgettable ears, Scrappy might just be your perfect match.
Marble A517441
Meet Marble, a 1 ½ year-old German Shepherd mix who is full of potential. While she can be a bit nervous in new environments, Marble quickly shows her sweet, affectionate side once she feels safe. On a recent field trip, she leaned in for calm, reassuring pets and clearly appreciated the quiet companionship. Treats weren’t her thing that day, but gentle touch and a patient presence made all the difference—she’s truly a soft soul at heart. Marble did great on a short hike, staying close and responsive on leash while calmly navigating the trail. She wasn’t fazed by squirrels or children she passed, she was just a good girl doing her best. Afterward, she chose the shadiest, most peaceful spot on Occidental’s campus to relax and watch the world go by, clearly savoring the calm. Marble is looking for a quiet, adult-only home with no other pets, where she can feel secure and continue growing in confidence. She’s a sensitive, intelligent girl who will thrive with patient guidance, consistent routines, and lots of love. If you’re someone who enjoys the outdoors but also knows the value of a shaded spot to just be, Marble could be your perfect match.

James B. Milliken, University of Texas chancellor, named UC president
James B. Milliken, chancellor of the University of Texas system and a veteran leader in higher education, has been named the next president of the University of California's system of 10 campuses, it was announced Friday.
Milliken's appointment follows a six-month search to find a successor to UC President Michael V. Drake, who has served since 2020 and will step down on July 31.
"The University of California is universally regarded as the preeminent public research university in the world, and I am deeply honored to have an opportunity to join the many talented faculty, staff and campus leaders in their vital work," Milliken said in a statement. "It is more important than ever that we expand the education, research, health care and public service for which UC is so widely admired and which has benefited so many Californians."
Milliken, 68, has spent more than 25 years leading major public university systems, taking top posts in both deeply conservative and liberal states.
"Chancellor Milliken embodies the qualities and leadership experiences the University of California
By City News Service
community needs at this moment," said Janet Reilly, chair of the UC Board of Regents. "He understands how critical UC's contributions are to the state and the country, and he has decades of experience leading public institutions during times of unprecedented change in higher education."
At the University of Texas, Milliken launched a major initiative to fully cover tuition and fees for eligible students from families earning under $100,000, officials said. Under his leadership, the system saw record-high enrollment, low student debt and nearly $5 billion in annual research spending.
UT's health network, which includes seven medical schools, ranks among the largest health care providers in the country.
Before taking the helm at the University of Texas in 2018, Milliken served four years as chancellor of the 25-campus City University of New York.
A native of Nebraska, he previously spent nearly a decade leading the University of Nebraska system and six years as a vice president in the 16-campus University of North Carolina system.
In a statement, Drake said, "Chancellor Milliken has the depth of wisdom
and experience to handle the challenges and opportunities of this position. I have great confidence in both his leadership and his commitment to the University's enduring values."
His appointment, announced Friday by the UC Board of Regents, comes at a tense time for the system, as universities nationwide face attacks from President Trump over "woke" ideologies and cuts to federal research funding critical to their mission.
"Chancellor Milliken's distinguished career and lifelong commitment to public education prepares him to lead the University of California in this new era," said UC regent Carmen Chu. "As the University evolves, it is critical we engage leaders adept at navigating change and positioning the institution for long-term success."
Milliken will assume his role as UC president on Aug. 1, with a Board- approved annual salary of $1,475,000, university officials said.
UC's system serves 299,000 students across 10 campuses, six academic medical centers and three affiliated national laboratories. Southern California campuses are in Los Angeles' Westwood area, Irvine, Riverside and UC San Diego.

Burbank PD arrest man for allegedly preying on minors
On March 23, 30-year-old Ivan
Hernandez of Valley Village was arrested and booked on charges of child endangerment and possession of nitrous oxide. The arrest followed a call for service and subsequent investigation into suspected drug activity, during which Hernandez was found in his vehicle with an underage female. During the follow-up investigation, detectives determined that Hernandez had been providing nitrous oxide, marijuana, and alcohol to underage females in exchange for sexual acts. He allegedly used Instagram to locate and lure victims, arranging to meet them for the purpose of trading drugs and alcohol for sex. Hernandez is also believed to have frequently recorded these encounters with the underage females on his cell phone. On March 25, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office filed multiple felony charges against Hernandez, including three counts of unlawful sex with a minor under 16, two counts of arranging to meet with a minor for lewd purposes, and one count each of child endangerment, oral copulation of a minor under 16, lewd or lascivious acts with a minor 14 or 15 years old, and possession of child sexual abuse material. Hernandez is currently being held without bail and is awaiting his next court appearance.

LA County Public Health Department declares hepatitis A outbreak
By Staff
The Los Angeles County Public Health Department declared a hepatitis A outbreak Monday after a steady increase in reported cases and elevated virus levels detected in wastewater.
Health officials confirmed 165 hepatitis A cases countywide last year, a three-fold increase compared with 2023's total.
People experiencing homelessness have a higher risk for contracting hepatitis A because of often limited access to hand-washing and restroom facilities, according to the health department. However, most of the 29 cases confirmed so far this year have been among people without travel or housing risk factors.
This rise in hepatitis A cases among lower-risk individuals has accompanied recent increases of the virus in wastewater, officials said, adding that while the risk
to the public remains low, protection measures are needed to make sure transmission is reduced.
Vaccination and good hygiene are the best ways to stop the spread, according to Public Health.
“The ongoing increase in hepatitis A cases signals that quick action is needed to protect public health,” LA County Health Officer
Muntu Davis said in a statement. “The hepatitis A vaccine is safe, effective, and offers long-term protection. Getting vaccinated is simple, and it’s one of the most important things you can do for your own health and the health of our entire community. It is also important for residents to wash their hands with soap and water regularly and especially before eating and preparing food and after using the bathroom.”
Public Health officials
monitor for and immediately investigate suspected cases and have asked health care workers to remain vigilant for hepatitis A. The department is also working with organizations that serve unhoused individuals to educate the community about the outbreak and virus, encourage vaccination and recommend those with infection symptoms seek medical care.
The hepatitis A vaccine usually is a two-dose vaccination series that according to Public Health "is safe,
highly effective in preventing infection, and has been routinely given to children for over a decade." The department "strongly encourages" vaccines for any county resident who did not previously receive a hepatitis A vaccine and wants protection from the virus and people experiencing homelessness or who use drugs, including substances that don't require injection.
For maximum protection, two doses of the vaccine administered at least six
months apart is required, health officials said. Previously unvaccinated people can receive the immunization soon after virus exposure to reduce the chance of developing an infection.
A list of places that offer the vaccine, which is available from most health care providers, is at publichealth. lacounty.gov/ip/docs/
Public_HepA_Referral.pdf.
Uninsured or underinsured residents can get the vaccine at county clinics.
Public Health's mobile units offer free vaccines to people experiencing homelessness in encampments and at interim housing sites where there is risk of virus exposure.
Officials said residents should also follow hygiene practices, such as washing hands with soap and water before eating and preparing food and after using the restroom.
Hepatitis A is a highly contagious viral infection of the liver that ranges from a mild symptoms lasting a few weeks to a severe illness that lasts several months, according to the health department. Symptoms include fever, weakness, fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite, jaundice — yellowing of the skin or eyes, stomach pain, vomiting, dark urine, pale stools and diarrhea. Although rare, hepatitis A can cause death.
Hepatitis A usually spreads when a person unknowingly ingests the virus from objects, food or drinks contaminated by small, undetectable amounts of an infected individual's stool, officials said. For questions or to find a local clinic or doctor, the Public Health InfoLine is available at 833-540-0473 daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. More information is at ph.lacounty.gov/HepA.
Probation Department proposes relocating detainees from Downey juvenile hall
By Joe Taglieri joet@beaconmedianews.com
The Los Angeles County Probation Department on Friday submitted a court-ordered plan to relocate youth detainees from Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall in Downey.
LA Superior Court Judge Michael Espinoza ordered the department to come up with a strategy to improve conditions at the troubled facility in April.
“This is a responsible and thoughtful step forward that reflects our commitment to court compliance, operational reform, and youth rehabilitation,” Chief Probation Officer Guillermo Viera Rosa said in a statement. “While this is not a final plan, it represents a strong foundation to realign youth with the right programs and services — and do so in a way that brings lasting, systemwide improvements.”
The Probation Department is proposing to reduce the Los Padrinos population by more than 100 youth
detainees with a "coordinated approach" to reduce the facility's population while "improving youth outcomes and maintaining public safety," according to the department.
Los Padrinos houses about 300 detainees whose criminal cases are pending in court.
Upon the judge's approval, probation officials will implement the plan over 30 days in phases in coordination with the Board of State and Community Corrections, Juvenile Court Health Services, the Los Angeles County Office of Education and the county departments of Public Health, Mental Health and Youth Development, officials said. The proposal builds on the department’s Facilities Global Plan and includes provisions to enhance mental health care, gender-responsive programming and individualized placement for youth with specialized needs.
"Youth, families and stakeholders will be notified
in advance of any transfers, and a comprehensive communication timeline — including virtual town halls, email updates, and facility-level FAQs — will ensure families are supported throughout the transition," according to a Probation Department statement.
readiness and capacity levels of alternative facilities and BSCC coordination.
In December, the BSCC declared Los Padrinos unsuitable to house youth detainees because of staffing deficiencies and other shortfalls. The county, however, lacks a viable alternative to
The department will also continue working with the court and county agencies to consider releasing more youth detainees "in a manner consistent with public safety, as well as community-based alternatives and diversion programs," officials said. Future efforts to reduce the number of Los Padrinos detainees will depend on the
house the youth held at Los Padrinos and has continued to operate the facility despite the board's closure order.
According to the department's proposed plan, 82 youth will relocate from Los Padrinos by June and another 21 upon the completion of structural repairs at Camp Joseph Paige in La Verne. When the department
completes a “secure youth treatment facility recommended track" at the Barry J. Nidorf facility in Sylmar, males currently housed at Los Padrinos who have pending court cases and have been identified as likely candidates for future SYTF commitments will relocate to Nidorf.
The strategy also designates Camp Vernon Kilpatrick as an all-girl facility where Los Padrinos' female youth detainees will relocate, the Dorothy Kirby Center in Commerce as a medical and mental health facility and Nidorf as a comprehensive secure youth treatment facility.
The Probation Department has appealed multiple times to the board to lift the unsuitability ruling, asserting that improvements have taken place, but state regulators have maintained the facility is still too troubled to suitably house youth.
Los Padrinos has expe-
rienced numerous problems since it hastily reopened in 2023 to house detainees relocated from Central Juvenile Hall in Boyle Heights and Barry J. Nidorf Juvenile Hall in Sylmar, which state regulators ordered to close.
Despite a successful relocation effort, Los Padrinos has suffered from short-staffing, allegations of violence among detainees — at times while probation officers allegedly stood by without intervening — and escape attempts.
In March, 30 county probation officers received criminal charges in connection with alleged youth-onyouth violence at the facility. According to prosecutors, probation officers would facilitate "gladiator fights" involving detainees.
Between July and December in 2023, 69 youth fights were allowed to occur at the facility, California Attorney General Rob Bonta's office reported.

4. Acceptance or Rejection of Bids.

5. Contractor License. At the time of the Bid Deadline and at all times during performance of the Work, including full completion of all corrective work during the Correction Period, the Contractor must possess a California contractor license or licenses, current and active, of the classification required for the Work, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 9, Division 3, Section 7000 et seq. of the Business and Professions Code. In compliance with Public Contract Code Section 3300, the City has determined that the Bidder must possess the following license(s):
• a. Pursuant to Section 3300, of the Public Contract Code, the classification of the bidder’s Contractor’s License shall be “Class A” (for sewer cleaning and video, use Class A, C-36, C-42, or D-38). Failure of a bidder to obtain adequate licensing at the time the contract is awarded shall constitute a failure to execute the Contract and shall result in the forfeiture of the Bidder’s Bond.
• b. For federally funded projects, the Contractor shall be properly licensed at the time of award.
The successful Bidder will not receive a Contract award if the successful Bidder is unlicensed, does not have all of the required licenses, or one or more of the licenses are not current and active. If the City discovers after the Contract’s award that the Contractor is unlicensed, does not have all of the required licenses, or one or more of the licenses are not current and active, the City may cancel the award, reject the Bid, declare the Bid Bond as forfeited, keep the Bid Bond’s proceeds, and exercise any one or more of the remedies in the Contract Documents.

In addition, the City requires that the Bidder list the dollar value of each Subcontractor’s labor or services. The City’s disqualification of a Subcontractor does not disqualify a Bidder. However, prior to and as a condition to award of the Contract, the successful Bidder shall substitute a properly licensed and qualified Subcontractor— without an adjustment of the Bid Amount.
7. Permits, Inspections, Plan Checks, Governmental Approvals, Utility Fees and Similar Authorizations: The City has applied and paid for the following Governmental Approvals and Utility Fees:

The Los Angeles County Development Authority would be tasked with exploring more stringent contract terms requiring emergency response plans and better oversight of housing services providers' responsibilities during public safety crises.

sentenced to the "secure youth treatment facility" to determine eligibility for step down programs or the state’s Pine Grove Fire Camp.
Another commission recommendation was to move girls and "genderexpansive" youth awaiting sentencing to the Dorothy Kirby Center in Commerce and hasten transfers to no more than two days for detainees who have already been sentenced to courtordered placements.
"In the absence of a clear, transparent, and community-informed plan from our struggling Probation Department, we must rely on the leadership of the Probation Oversight Commission and the meaningful solutions they've developed in collaboration with county stakeholders and the public," Horvath said in a statement. "None of the options before us are perfect, but doing nothing — or simply moving forward with Probation's inadequate proposal — is unacceptable. I fear we will replicate the same failures in new locations at a time when our youth are counting on us to provide the care and rehabilitation they deserve."
The Board of Supervisors' approved motion
directs Viera Rosa to assess the oversight commission recommendations and report back to the commission in writing or verbally at the panel's upcoming meeting Thursday.
In a statement Friday on the department's depopulation plan submitted for the court's consideration, Viera Rosa said, "This is a responsible and thoughtful step forward that reflects our commitment to court compliance, operational reform, and youth rehabilitation. While this is not a final plan, it represents a strong foundation to realign youth with the right programs and services — and do so in a way that brings lasting, systemwide improvements.”
In December, the Board of State and Community Corrections declared Los Padrinos unsuitable to house youth detainees because of alleged staffing shortfalls and other deficiencies. However, the county had no viable alternative to house the youth detainees and has continued to operate the facility in defiance of state regulators shutdown order.
The Probation Department has appealed the BSCC's unsuitability ruling,
asserting that improvements have been made, but regulators have upheld the closure order.
Management and operational issues have plagued Los Padrinos since it hastily reopened two years ago to house detainees from Central Juvenile Hall in Boyle Heights and Barry J. Nidorf Juvenile Hall in Sylmar. The BSCC ordered the county to close both of those facilities. Since the reopening, Los Padrinos has suffered from short-staffing, escape attempts and allegations of violence among detainees — in some cases while probation officers allegedly stood by and failed to stop fights.
In March, 30 probation officers were facing criminal charges involving alleged cases of youth detainee violence at the facility. According to prosecutors, probation officers would stage "gladiator fights" among the detainees. California Attorney General Rob Bonta's office alleged 69 fights were allowed to occur involving youths at Los Padrinos between July and December 2023.
A commission report on the recommendations is online at tinyurl. com/3mwtfkjv.
