Live look at Los Angeles as some of the worst air quality in years suffocates the metropolis during the World Cup, all from a single 10 acre warehouse fire in Boyle Heights.
There is no wind. There is no atmospheric mixing. The smoke is just sitting here.
This is day 4.
Hilarious that MHD thought they could complete an entire debate and vote on charter reform in 30 mins. They are at almost 3.5 hours right now w/ more to come.
This exchange from Monday was pretty amusing.
CLA drops this news at 11th hour & we find out that at the same time labor (minus LAPPL) was being ghosted in attempts to meet & confer, the City was bending over backwards to talk to the Police Protective League & getting ghosted.
The committee report from Monday on charter reform, & related attachment, just got posted to the council file at some point in the last few hours. 44 pages total between the two.
On Wednesday at 10am, the full LA City Council will vote on Charter Reform proposals to send to the Nov ballot.
This includes a measure that allows City Council to have direct policy authority over LAPD.

@CD13LosAngeles@CD5LosAngeles@cd4losangeles@mhdcd8 While @cd4losangeles made one last attempt to bring up the Commission recommendation to lower the number of signatures required to run for office from 500 to 350, no other members of the Rules Committee were in support.
