  • Clubbing in Los Angeles Jonny Coleman Tackles the Multi-Farious Scene in One of America's Biggest Cities
    Clubbing in Los Angeles Jonny Coleman tackles the multi-farious scene in one of America's biggest cities. Los Angeles has always been a capital of pop culture. Outside of rave, however, it's never had much of a reputation for its dance music culture. Until recently, that is. The efforts of local promoters have given rise to enormous EDM festivals, the Low End Theory-driven beat scene and thriving techno and house crews—and have led to the city finally becoming internationally recognized. Now, it seems, a place that houses four million people inside the city limits and 18 million in the greater Southland area, is finally representing itself on the world stage. True to its geography—a set of suburbs fronting as a megalopolis—Los Angeles doesn't have a dominant sound or theme. Instead, there are many scenes tugging for attention and battling over the few legitimate dance venues the city has to offer. It's enormously difficult to acquire a liquor license in LA, thanks in no small part to club-owning cowboys like Eddie Nash (of Wonderland murder fame), and those that do can't serve all that late anyway. Most nights last from 10 until 2 or 3 AM (a reality that often results in seeing your headlining DJ for two hours). It doesn't help that many of the historical clubs/bars in places like Hollywood and West Hollywood are a tough sell to fans of underground music, as the price points, degree of parking difficulty and douchebaggery quotient are all high. That means that many parties of note take place downtown or in other east side neighborhoods (if not a private estate).

    REPORT FROM OFFICE OF THE CITY ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER Date: July 24, 2020 CAO File No. 0590-00098-5183 Council File No. 20-0600 Council District: All To: Eric Garcetti, Mayor Nury Martinez, Council President Paul Krekorian, Chair, Budget and Finance Committee From: Richard H. Llewellyn, Jr., City Administrative Officer Reference: 2020-21 Budget Subject: JULY 1, 2020, BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS SUMMARY Consistent with the City Council’s budget instruction for this Office to report frequently on the City’s financial status (C.F. 20-0600), this Office is transmitting restatements of various 2020-21 Budget exhibits. These restated exhibits reflect actions that the City Council and Mayor took subsequent to the 2020-21 Budget going into effect and retroactive to July 1, 2020. Thus, they reflect the initial appropriation for each stated line item. These changes include, but are not limited to, adjustments to the Los Angeles Police Department’s operating budget, assumptions for a Separation Incentive Program to offset furlough savings, reimbursements to various funds that front-funded COVID-19 expenditures, actions to bolster the City’s reserves, and an update on the City’s Reserve Fund balance as of July 1, 2020. Historically, the Adopted Budget reflects the City Council’s changes to the Mayor’s Proposed Budget. As the City Council did not approve or modify the Mayor’s Proposed Budget before June 1, 2020, the Mayor’s Proposed Budget becomes the 2020-21 City Budget pursuant to Charter Section 313. The City Council and the Mayor, however, approved various adjustments to the Budget on July 1, 2020.
