(10) 16-0451-S1 CD 8 CONSIDERATION OF MOTION (HARRIS-DAWSON – YAROSLAVSKY) relative to funding to secure the nuisance building known as the 108 Motel located at 10721 South Broadway in Council District 8. Recommendations for Council action: INSTRUCT the City Administrative Officer to identify funds to appropriate/transfer $11,300 to the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS), to pay for the costs to further secure the nuisance building known as the 108 Motel located at 10721 South Broadway, Los Angeles, California 90068, inasmuch as the owner has not complied with prior orders to secure the property, and extension of time granted by the LADBS, and despite the installation of the fence paid for by the City (Council file No. 16-0451-S1), it continues to be nuisance to the surrounding neighborhood, with squatters onsite leading to 15-20 daily arrests, and thereby causing a drain in public safety resources. REQUEST the LADBS, with the assistance of the City Attorney, to take all actions necessary, consistent with Los Angeles Municipal Code Section 91.9003.4.2 (Notification), to notify the property owner that a lien will be placed against the property, 108 Motel located at 10721 South Broadway in Council District 8, to cover the cost of vacating and securing the property, and their right to a hearing.
