Tag "SB50"

Remembering what Kobe Bryant meant to Los Angeles. SB50 goes down again. A proposal for a roast diet in Hollywood. And a laundry heir has it out for a school board member.

Garcetti endorses Biden and a machine is activated. At least 50 people who are homeless are cleared out of Sepulveda Basin, along with several other sweeps. Garcetti and the Trump administration approach a quiet deal on homelessness. And Newsom’s budget is out, along with an endorsement of SB50, which got some changes.

The LAPD lets us know they’re on high alert after Trump’s killing of General Soleimani. Chief Michel Moore has words for hit-and-run drivers. Sheriff Alex Villanueva is disappointed in the media online. And SB50 is back on the table.

Hayes is in Florida so Scott and Alissa get into the shelving of SB50, newly free admissions at MOCA, Metro and Garcetti’s flip-flop on the bus lane pilot, difficult questions for Sheriff Villanueva, big tourism numbers for LA, and not-so-big weed numbers for the state.

Hayes and Alissa are joined by KPCC/LAist’s MATT TINOCO to get into the LA City Council’s vote on SB50 and how some talk radio giants weighed in, plus Mayor Garcetti’s comments on homelessness in the State of the City.

Whooping cough invades Harvard-Westlake, LAUSD moves forward on a parcel tax, Metro studies Uber and scooter levies, LA changes the way it measures driving, and Paul Koretz has an opinion on SB50. Scott, Alissa and Hayes talk about them all.

Alissa went to the Boring Company tunnel opening! We have our first Ready for Garcetti PAC video, starring a councilmember who made a very bad joke in a public meeting this week! A former LA Times publisher took hush money to hide that the former owner was an anti-Semite! We’re getting closer to knowing what Jose Huizar is under investigation for! And we get into SB50 a little bit!

Scott and Hayes talk about the end of the celebrity burglar reign of terror, LASD’s racially-charged traffic stop campaign, and a little trouble for two different City Councilmembers. Then Alissa and Hayes travel to UCLA to interview State Senator SCOTT WIENER about his many plans for getting LA and the rest of California to build more housing.
