Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the recommendations
stated in the August 4, 2025 CAO report, attached to the Council fIle,
include transfers, appropriations, and authority for expenditures
totaling $14.09 million. This consists of $5.63 million from various
special funds, $6.83 million in MICLA funds, and $1.63 million in
CTIEP funds. All transfers and appropriations are based on existing
funds, reimbursements, or revenues. There is no additional General
Fund impact for operations and maintenance costs as a result of
these recommendations.
Financial Policies Statement: The CAO reports that the
recommendations stated in the August 4, 2025 CAO report, attached
to the Council file, comply with the City’s Financial Policies in that
appropriations for funds are limited to available cash balances needed
to fund ongoing maintenance, programming, project shortfalls, and
critical operational needs in the current budget year.
Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA
debt is a General Fund obligation. The reauthorization of various
projects (Items Z, DD, GG, JJ and PP detailed in the August 4, 2025
CAO report) would cause the City to borrow $10.7 million at an
approximate 5.5 percent interest rate over a period of 20 years. The
total estimated debt service for these projects is $18.0 million,
including interest of approximately $7.2 million. During the life of the
bonds, the estimated average annual debt service is $0.9 million over
a period of 20 years. The reauthorization of Los Angeles Convention
Center (LACC) MICLA projects (Item U) would cause the City to
borrow $24.1 million at an approximate 5.5 percent interest rate over
a period of 10 years. The total estimated debt service for these
projects is $40.2 million, including interest of approximately $16.2
million. During the life of the bonds, the estimated average annual
debt service is $2.0 million over a period of 10 years. Actual interest
rates may differ as rates are dependent on market conditions at the
time of issuance. The CAO stated that it cannot fully predict what
interest rates will be in the future. In accordance with the City's Debt
Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide
the evaluation of the affordability for future debt. The debt ceiling for
non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is
six percent. The 2025-26 Adopted Budget non-voter-approved debt
service ratio is 2.40 percent. The issuance of MICLA debt for these
projects will not cause the City to exceed the six percent non-voterapproved debt limit. |

CONSIDERATION OF MOTION (NAZARIAN – LEE) relative to drafting

Recommendations for Council action:
1. DIRECT the Los Angeles Housing Department (LAHD), with the
assistance of the City Attorney and the Department of Building

amend the RSO, and other relevant City codes, to implement
the intent of the Motion as follows:

failure to initiate or complete demolition within the

penalties, including, but not limited to, tenant reoccupancy rights and financial restitution.

Planning, the Bureau of Street Services, Bureau of Engineering,
Bureau of Sanitation, and the Los Angeles Fire Department to

relative to a ministerial entitlement process for eligible mixed income
and 100 percent affordable housing and mixed-use projects.
Recommendations for Council action, pursuant to Motion (Raman Blumenfield):
1. DIRECT the Department of City Planning (DCP) to report to
Council within 60 days on providing a clear ministerial
entitlement process for the following types of eligible mixed
income and 100 percent affordable housing and mixed-use
projects that are currently subject to discretionary review
processes provided the projects provide the requisite
percentage of affordable housing to qualify for: (i) enhanced
development rights under the Citywide Housing Incentive
Program (CHIP); and, (ii) an exemption to the Project Review
Ordinance:
a. Projects located in overlay zones (e.g., Community
Design Overlays, Community Plan Implementation
Overlays) and Specific Plan areas.
b. Projects that require CHIP or State Density Bonus Law
waivers of development standards, in addition to on or offmenu incentives/concessions.
c. Ministerial projects otherwise made subject to
discretionary review due to non-planning related
approvals in urbanized areas, including but not limited to:
(i) haul routes for projects located in Bureau of
Engineering Special Grading Areas that require the
import/export of more than 1,000 cubic yards of dirt; and,
(ii) street tree removal permit approvals required by the
Board of Public Works.
d. Projects that meet the goals of the CHIP in good faith but
face unique challenges that constrain project feasibility
and unduly incur discretionary review or preclude them
from using the CHIP entirely.
2. DIRECT the DCP, with the support of other relevant
departments, to report to Council with a detailed plan and
specific recommendations regarding implementation of very
recent amendments to the State Permit Streamlining Act as part
of the 2025-2026 State Housing Budget Trailer Bills (Assembly
Bill 130 and Senate Bill 130). These amendments, among other
things, require ministerial entitlements for housing projects to be
approved no later than 60 days from the date of a deemed
complete application; otherwise, the project is deemed
approved as a matter of law.
