City Council

(22) 20-1178-S3 CD 15 PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE REPORT relative to the redeployment of the Therapeutic Van Pilot Program serving the Harbor Area to a more operationally advantageous facility. Recommendations for Council action: DIRECT the City Administrative Officer (CAO), with the assistance of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) and the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) to use the Pilot to test creating some kind of direct communications link between responders and LAPD / LAFD. DIRECT the LAPD to do an audit of 9-1-1 call notes to give more insight into what is going on with these calls and which ones should be diverted. Fiscal Impact Statement: The LAFD reports that the fiscal impact is undetermined.  An estimate for required electrical modification was not available at the time the LAFD report was prepared.  Neither the City Administrative Officer nor the Chief Legislative Analyst has completed the financial analysis of this report.
