Photo by Scott Bogunia. SUMMARY Dear Honorable Mayor Eric Garcetti, The Department of Neighborhood Empowerment (Department) respectfully presents its Fiscal Year 2020-2021 Proposed Budget for review and deliberation. The Budget includes resources necessary to support the Department's administration of Article IX of the Los Angeles City Charter, which enabled the formation of a self-selected system of Neighborhood Councils (System), with advisory authorities, and the establishment of the policy-setting Board of Neighborhood Commissioners (Commission). The Department supports the operation of the now 99 Neighborhood Councils (NCs) in accordance with the City Council-approved Plan For a Citywide System of Neighborhood Councils (the Plan). At its core, the Plan's six goals and objectives define the promotion, formation, and certification of Neighborhood Councils. The Proposed Budget provides management and oversight of the NCs' operations, and support of the System's approximately 2,000 elected, selected, and appointed leaders. The System administers over $4M in funding supporting community-based programs and generates more than 500K hours of quality volunteer service to the City of Los Angeles. The Department's operating goals, which support its overall vision, were informed by the Listening Tour of Neighborhood Councils initiated in September 2019. The Department's Budget supports its mission to increase civic engagement and make government more responsive to local needs ...our mission is to promote civic engagement and make government more responsive to local needs by strengthening the Department's relationships with NCs and serving and strengthening its role as a NC resource. Improving the “ ” Neighborhood Councils' engagement and advocacy approaches and improving City Hall's relationship with NCs are two additional operating goals. The Budget provides resources to enable the Department to meet these goals with determinate objectives. They include systematically recruiting and preparing new leaders for board service, improving our regulatory and educational communication, and providing for the establishment of a centralized translation and interpreter process. The latter would be coordi- nated with the Office of the City Clerk and City Attorney and would generate language tools that could be shared with City departments. The enhancement request of the Department's ability to minimize, manage, and resolve conflicts through a centralized NC Resolution Unit is a priority goal in the next fiscal year. Additionally, the Proposed Budget enables the development of technology and innovation to promote proficiency in data usage to guide NC engagement and empowerment, a resilience data portal, the expansion of online training portals, a new platform for the Community Impact Statement submissions, and ideation to support continued innovation in the City of Los Angeles. Department of Neighborhood Empowerment 2020-21 Fiscal Year Budget Proposal Page 2 Department of Neighborhood Empowerment 2020-21 Fiscal Year Budget Proposal Page 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Department is submitting a Proposed Budget for FY 2020-21 of $5,529,958, representing a 64.9% ($2,176,477) increase from the Department's Approved FY 2019-2020 Budget. The proposal regularizes filled resolution authority positions that have long-standing work objectives and goals that will continue into future years. Of particular note is the nascent work and support needed to build upon FY 2019-20 funding provided to establish an appropriately staffed and funded Office of Community Engagement. Because of this program and other key objectives, the Department's administrative capacity must also be enhanced to accomplish the goals above. Progressively, Grayce Liu, the previous General Manager, has been cautiously rebuilding the Department from a staffing level of 15 positions in FY 2012-13 to where it currently stands (27 regular authority positions). We intend to continue this careful rebuild to an appropriate staffing level that will provide efficient and professional services to the NCs, stakeholders, and City agencies that we serve, with structured accountability measures. The Budget Proposal, as presented, provides the capacity to support City-wide Mayoral initiatives through the formation of a community-based, grassroots infrastructure. Initiatives include pursuing regulatory compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) within Department and NC operations, increasing the engagement of under-participating constituents, and the recruitment of RYLAN and Homelessness liaisons to name a few. The Department's request also allows for the implementation of City Council approved NC Reforms. After careful consideration, review, and with much respect to the budget instructions provided by the City Administrative Officer (CAO) requiring the submission of "Offset Proposals" to be submitted along with any new requests for funding and position authorities, I have decided to defer the consideration of any offsets to the Mayoral and the CAO's Budgetary teams. Our Department operates on a minimal budget, struggles to maintain the workload when any vacancies occur, and any cuts in funding have a significantly more drastic effect on our operations that would undercut the progress that has been made to deliver on key goals, objectives, and initiatives as required of us. We have undergone several stages of innovation and process improvement exercises to function within our means. The addition of any new programs and operations will be requested and designed with similar innovative strategies in mind. We are entering into the 20th year of the Neighborhood Council System. We look forward to discussing the Department's Proposed Budget, mission, vision, and goals over the coming months. This Budget allows us to strengthen our ability to support the System and its leadership, reduce potential liabilities, and improve consistency, effectiveness, and efficiency throughout the System.

ANNUAL REPORT ANNUAL 2013–2014 Cover: GIUSEPPE PENONE Italian, born 1947 Albero folgorato (Thunderstuck Tree), 2012 Bronze with gold leaf 433 1/16 x 96 3/4 x 79 in. (1100 x 245.7 x 200.7 cm) Museum purchase funded by the Caroline Wiess Law Accessions Endowment Fund 2014.728 While arboreal imagery has dominated Giuseppe Penone’s sculptures across his career, monumental bronzes of storm- blasted trees have only recently appeared as major themes in his work. Albero folgorato (Thunderstuck Tree), 2012, is the culmination of this series. Cast in bronze from a willow that had been struck by lightning, it both captures a moment in time and stands fixed as a profoundly evocative and timeless monument. ALG Opposite: LYONEL FEININGER American, 1871–1956 Self-Portrait, 1915 Oil on canvas 39 1/2 x 31 1/2 in. (100.3 x 80 cm) Museum purchase funded by the Caroline Wiess Law Accessions Endowment Fund 2014.756 Lyonel Feininger’s 1915 self-portrait unites the psychological urgency of German Expressionism with the formal structures of Cubism to reveal the artist’s profound isolation as a man in self-imposed exile, an American of German descent, who found himself an alien enemy living in Germany at the outbreak of World War I.

To some extent, it was true. James did find inspiration for much of his life’s work in his emotional torment and the many years he spent fighting drug addiction and depression. And he did hail from an affluent, musically talented family that could afford to send its progeny to exclusive prep schools and expensive private mental hospitals. But now James Taylor in his fifties has the benefit of hindsight to moderate any lingering grudges against a press that persistently pigeonholed him – first as a sort of Kurt Cobain of his day, and much later as a sleepy crooner with his most creative years behind him.

Tom Nanos' Blue and White Restaurant is closing after 22 years, apparently the victim of pressure from the university, although no one will say as much.

According to Nanos the "rundown" condition of his restaurant was due to the lack of "security" he's had for the last nine years because he couldn't obtain a lease. When UConn bought the property, Nanos said he thought they would be more "lenient" but instead they gave him the "insecurity" of a month to month lease. This monthly leasing arrangement is the "usual procedure" for all university property, a UConn spokesman said. Nanos said he "can't spend that much money without security" and therefore "voluntarily" decided to "liquidate" the Blue & White.
