On November 20, 2014 an evidentiary hearing was held before the Culture Heritage Commission wherein the said Commission found that: "The consensus of the Commission is that this property does not fall under the criteria in Section 22.171.7 of the Los Angeles Administrative Code. Therefore, the request has been declined.” This finding was memorialized in writing by the Commission on December 2, 2014. The Tevrizian Family Trusts are the original owners of the subject property and are satisfied with the Commission's finding and decision. The Tevrizian Family Trusts never made application to have the property included as a Culture Heritage Monument. The application was submitted by an unauthorized individual and the application contained many gross inaccuracies and fictitious information. At the November 20th hearing I addressed the Commission and presented testimony that was contrary to the information contained in the unauthorized application. Unfortunately, I am not able to attend the public hearing scheduled for January 13, 2015, as I am a retired United States District Court Judge that is participating as an arbitrator in a matter of significant importance that has been previously scheduled for some period of time with witnesses coming from several parts of the United States.

Lew, U.S. District Court Judge, Central District of California Do good.” When asked for the most valuable ad- vice he could ever give, Judge Ronald S.W. Lew simply responded with these words passed on “from his father. Recognized as a trailblazer and icon, Judge Lew’s accomplishments are countless and unprecedented: the first appointed Chinese-American federal judge outside of Hawaii, decorated Vietnam War veteran, founder of one of the nation’s largest Asian lawyers’ associations, mentor to thousands of aspiring young professionals, and dedicated family man with 14 grandchildren. Judge Lew’s accomplishments and dedi- cation have propelled him to being one of the most re- spected and legendary judges. His journey to becoming the first Chinese-American judge appointed to the federal bench on the U.S. main- land was not easy, considering his humble origins in the heart of Los Angeles’ Chinatown. Today, after 28 years as a federal judge, Judge Lew still continues to work to help those in need, guided by his simple mantra, “Do good.” It seems simplistic, but there’s much behind these words. Judge Lew’s inspiration starts with his father, Chow- lan Lew, who at 14 years old arrived in California with Chowlan knew that his children needed an education if only a dollar in his pocket. Despite this, he opened his they ever hoped to live outside of Los Angeles’ low-in- own laundry business and started a family with nine come neighborhoods. Chowlan noticed how challenging children, including his third son, Ronald Sing Wai Lew.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 23, 2013 Conntact: Lorenza Munoz, 213-458-6279 Email:[email protected] Contact: Sharita Moon, 213-309-4136 Email: [email protected] TEN APPOINTEES NAMED TO THE BLUE RIBBON COMMISSION FOR CHILD PROTECTION A distinguished and diverse panel of experts in social welfare, child advocacy, foster care, juvenile justice, education and law enforcement has been selected by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors for the Blue Ribbon Commission on Child Protection. The independent commission, composed of two appointees by each of the supervisors, is charged with rigorously examining why child protection reforms at the Department of Children and Family Services as well as other county agencies have not been implemented. The commission will convene August 1 and it is expected to make its recommendations for an overhaul within six months. “This panel is comprised of a variety of experts who bring a diversity of viewpoints and experiences,” said Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Chairman Mark Ridley- Thomas. “It is my hope that their guidance and recommendations will result in greater emphasis on child safety and accountability.” The motion, authored by Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas last month, came on the heels of the deaths of several children, questionable practices by several Foster Family Agencies and concerns that the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services and other agencies have failed to intervene in casses even when there are multiple abuse allegations. Here is the list of appointees and their brief bios: First District: Andrea Rich: Rich served as President and Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (“LACMA”) from 1999 to 2005.
