LA City Council Meets Tuesday & Wednesday & Thursday & Continues Items from Last Week

Lorraine Mabbett Editor

L.A. Council Rules authority granted via City Charter Section 242. An incited call for resignation, outside of criminal cause, ignores protocol of Council Rules to censure

The October 14th meeting of the Los Angeles County City Council was cancelled due to outbursts during the meeting. The previous October 11th meeting was also shortened and shut down.

There is no mention on the agenda for 10/18/22 of items from the October 12th meeting not addressed.

"All items on the Friday, October 14, 2022, regular agenda and continuation agenda will be continued to the Council meeting of Tuesday, October 18, 2022."

There are 11 items from October 11 , 2022 meeting which will be continued to the Council meeting of Tuesday, October 18, 2022.

There are 36 items from October 14, 2022 meeting which will be continued to the Council meeting of Tuesday, October 18, 2022.

The rules of the City Council regarding items not addressed are:

When the Council has failed by sufficient votes to approve or reject an item, and has not lost jurisdiction over the matter, or has not caused it to be continued beyond the next regular meeting, the item is continued to the next regular meeting for the purpose of allowing the Council to again vote on the matter.

The City Council rules provide that all items adopted by the Council will not be presented to the Mayor, or other designated officer by the City Clerk until the adjournment of the regular Council meeting following the date of the Council action. A motion to send an item "forthwith" if adopted by ten (10) votes, suspends these rules and requires the City Clerk to forward the matter to the Mayor, or other officer, without delay.
