Posted on 08/03/20Dear Stakeholders, Happy Monday. It has been a busy few weeks as we work to restart our Sustainability Committee, with two co-chairs, Raduca Kaplan and Melanie Winter, and look at how we can improve other committees. Our Acting Chair for Government Affairs, Lois Weinsaft, has been getting her committee in order with the help of her Vice-Chair, Barry Johnson. I am also close to finalizing my choice for our new Homelessness Committee Chair, news to come soon. If you're interested in joining any committee, please feel free to reach out and send an email to [email protected]

AMERICAN WITH DISABILITIES ACT
As a covered entity under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the City of Los Angeles does not discriminate on the basis of disability and, upon request, will provide reasonable accommodation to ensure equal access to its programs, services and activities. Sign language interpreters, assistive listening devices, and other auxiliary aids and/or services, may be provided upon request. To ensure availability of services, please make your request at least one (1) business days (24 hours) prior to the meeting you wish to attend by contacting the Studio City Neighborhood Council at [email protected].
Studio City, please follow tonight's 6pm curfew.
Posted on 06/01/20To our friends, neighborhoods, and stakeholders of Studio City,
Tonight, Los Angeles has issued a city-wide curfew for 6pm tonight until 6am, with the exception of those going to/coming from work, emergency services, and those unhoused neighbors who are sheltering in place. Please follow the curfew order for the safety of ourselves and our neighborhood.
I know it's difficult to imagine living under a curfew order on top of the current public health safer-at-home order. It feels overwhelming in this moment, but our fears and anxieties are collectively shared, and you're not alone. Together, even while apart, we can see this through.
If you haven't already, please sign up for NotifyLA to make sure you're getting the latest updates.
Thank you everyone, and stay safe, Studio City.

Studio City NC and Feed Folks - Final Week!
Posted on 05/14/20
This is the final week for the program put forward by Feed Folks and the SCNC Public Safety Committee - buy a box or donate a box! This week's box donations will go to St. Joseph's Hospital, the Noho Interfaith Food Pantry, and LAFD Station 78.

Please get your orders in by Friday at noon: FeedFolks.store/StudioCity/
Thank you to everyone who has ordered or donated over the last month - your participation has not only helped our local farmers and contributed to our community's nutrition, but also helped test out ways the SCNC can be of service to the neighborhood during a state of emergency.
Stay safe, Studio City!
Studio City NC Update - May 6, 2020
Posted on 05/06/20This upcoming weekend is going to be filled with Studio City neighbors helping one another!
Starting this Saturday, please donate, if you are able, to our food drive benefitting all the great work our friends at the North Hollywood Interfaith Food Pantry do to support our community. The food drive will be held in the parking lot of the First Christian Church, on the corner of Moorpark and Colfax here in Studio City. Refer to the poster for which items are needed.
And then on Sunday, Feed Folks and the SCNC Public Safety Committee continue the pilot program to help local farmers and deliver donated boxes to first responders and organizations in need. Pick up is easy on Sunday morning through the north entrance of the Weddington Golf & Tennis parking lot on Whitsett Ave. Sometime after ordering, you'll receive an email giving your pickup time and confirmation number.
Please get your orders in by Friday at noon: FeedFolks.store/StudioCity/
And if you haven't already, please find the SCNC on various social media, such as Facebook and Instagram. Not only are our members and volunteers working overtime to distribute information and keep us all up-to-date on the coronavirus, but they're also finding great activities you can do from home, fun virtual meetings and classes, and just general ways to keep positive.
Stay safe, Studio City!

Feed Folks and Studio City NC
Posted on 04/23/20
Feed Folks has teamed up with the Studio City Neighborhood Council to create a pilot program during the current state of emergency to deliver fresh produce to Studio City stakeholders through the SCNC's Public Safety Committee's resiliency plan.
You can buy a box or donate a box to someone in need. 100 boxes total for this weekend as the demand and process is stress tested. I bought a box for myself a few weeks ago when we were testing out the basics and it was wonderful to have something to counteract my cravings for junk food during this safer at home order.
Please get your orders in by tomorrow at noon: https://feedfolks.store/studio-city/
Stay safe, Studio City!

To the stakeholders of Studio City (hopefully) staying safe at home--
I hope you are all making the best out of these strange times and are well.
Â
Despite our inability to formally hold meetings, the SCNC has been working overtime to serve the stakeholders of Studio City.
Â
We want to hold a Zoom/Call-in meeting tomorrow night to update everyone. I believe the current plan is for myself and Randy Fried (SCNC VP) to run them and moderate everyone’s questions and updates, but more importantly, to just see some friendly faces and meet other neighbors.

How you can help or receive help
Posted on 03/18/20Studio City Stakeholders,

If you are elderly, handicapped, or immune compromised, we have volunteers ready to run errands, walk dogs, or simply do wellness checks.
IF YOU CAN VOLUNTEER, send an email to [email protected] with "Volunteer" in the subject line.
Be safe. Stay home. Ask for help. Together we will get through this.
Warmly,
The Studio City Neighborhood Council
Statement from the LAPD
Posted on 03/17/20Deployment of LAPD Area Detectives and Front Desk Operations due to COVID-19
In an effort to augment staffing levels, reassure the public, and create a safe environment for our employees, the Los Angeles Police Department is modifying some of our regular services. We ask for your patience during this time, as this shift of resources may impact the public.
Effective immediately, we will be deploying 50 percent of our area detective workforce to uniformed patrol assignments. These dedicated resources will perform high visibility patrols to critical locations throughout our 21 geographic areas, ensuring the safety of the residents and any store operators that may be dealing with very large crowds.
This deployment is not a response to any specific heightened criminal activity. To date, we have experienced very few isolated non-medical calls for service throughout the entire region related to the health emergency. There is no indication that there will be any change to this posture. We have seen Angelenos rise to the occasion by social distancing, good hygiene and sheltering with loved ones.
Also, starting Wednesday, all of our geographic areas will be closing their front desks and walk-up service. This move is an effort to ensure social distancing and do our part to slow the spread of Coronavirus.
Instead of going to your local area station, we are asking the public to use unique email addresses assigned to each of our 21 area front desks. Those emails will be monitored 24/7 and routed to the proper channels. Rest assured, we will still respond to crimes in progress or a crime in need of immediate follow up, as Watch Commanders will dispatch patrol officers to those incidents.
There will be some exceptions to the closures for specific business that requires an in-person meeting including, but not limited to:
-Vehicle/Property Release
-Child Custody Exchanges
-Attorney Visitation (with an individual in custody)
-Bail/Bond Releases
An officer will give specific directions on how those visits will be handled.
These new guidelines will greatly reduce contact between members of the public and Department personnel, hopefully ensuring the health and well-being of our workforce.
The LAPD is committed to providing professional service for our community and keeping our employees healthy, is critical as we continue to protect and serve the people of Los Angeles.
Here are the unique email addresses for the Geographic Areas:

SCNC coronavirus information - March 13, 2020
Posted on 03/13/20To the stakeholders of Studio City - what a week, huh?
In order to take the precautions necessarily to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, this month's SCNC board meeting is cancelled, as well as any committee meetings until the end of this month. Simple hygiene practices and social distancing are very effective in situations such as this, so all of the neighborhood councils are now operating from the same guidance as the city.
A lot of you are just looking for reliable information on what's going on, so please sign up for NotifyLA for frequent updates and information about the coronavirus including prevention.
For more, I'd like to share some of the information from Mayor Eric Garcetti:
- Public events: All non-essential public community events or group activities with 50 or more participants –– or that require close contact between vulnerable individuals –– will be postponed or cancelled in order to limit the risk of exposing staff and the public to the virus. This includes all events or conferences on City-owned properties that are anticipated to attract more than 50 people.
- Entry to city buildings: The City will stagger entry for visitors in public buildings to no more than 50 at a time — including City museums, libraries, parks, pools, and community centers. Transit locations and similar facilities, including LAX and the Port of Los Angeles, as well as all City shelters, are exempt from this requirement at this time. The Los Angeles City Hall complex, including City Hall East, City Hall South, and Van Nuys City Hall, will be temporarily closed to members of the public, except for public meetings of the City Council.
- Sanitation protocols: Hand-washing and sanitizing stations will be available in City-owned public buildings, and extra steps are being taken to clean facilities regularly and thoroughly.
More about what the City is doing:
- Prevention and preparedness: We’re working to get the word out with the latest information about COVID-19, and ways to protect yourself and your family, including practicing social distancing. Learn more from the L.A. County Department of Public Health.
- Homeless Angelenos: Our Unified Homelessness Response Center (UHRC) is closely monitoring the situation and taking steps to prevent the spread of COVID-19 among Angelenos experiencing homelessness. The UHRC is coordinating with the L.A. Homeless Services Authority and the L.A. County Department of Public Health to ensure unsheltered Angelenos have information about the virus and resources to protect their health and safety. Homelessness outreach teams and shelter providers are receiving additional training on best practices for addressing a coronavirus outbreak and referring individuals experiencing illness to medical professionals. We’re adding new hygiene stations throughout the city, as well as providing hand sanitizer to homeless Angelenos.
- Public transportation: Metro, Metrolink, and LADOT are closely monitoring the current situation. Each agency is vigorously cleaning buses, trains, stations, and facilities on a regular basis and will continue to review and update cleaning protocols as needed.
- Public schools: The L.A. Unified School District Board of Education voted this week to delegate emergency powers to the Superintendent in the event that action needs to be taken swiftly as the COVID-19 situation unfolds. LAUSD is coordinating with and following the guidance of the CDC and the County Department of Public Health should school closures be required at any point. In the meantime, the District has implemented several new policies — including cancelling all large gatherings of staff and/or students, and all off-campus visits by students and staff to public places where crowds may gather. At this time, student competitions are allowed to proceed without spectators.
Here are steps you should take:
- Know the symptoms: COVID-19 symptoms include fever, cough, and shortness of breath — and may appear in as few as 2 days or as long as 14 days after exposure. Person-to-person spread mainly occurs via respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes, like the flu. A less common form of transmission can take place from objects or surfaces that become infected.
- Take precautions: If you are sick, stay home. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. Cover your cough or sneeze. Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces. If you have recently traveled in an area with COVID-19 infections or have been in contact with someone with COVID-19 and are showing symptoms, monitor your health and contact your doctor.
- Plan ahead: Make sure you have extra food, medical supplies, and emergency kits in your home. Talk to your family, friends, and neighbors to develop emergency plans — particularly for children, seniors, and anyone with chronic medical conditions that may make them particularly susceptible to illness. And remember, L.A. City tap water continues to be of the highest quality and is 100-percent safe to drink. LADWP’s treatment processes are specifically designed to protect the public from all viruses and harmful bacteria.
- Stay informed: Stick with trusted and official sources for accurate and timely updates, including CDC.gov, PublicHealth.LACounty.gov, and LAMayor.org/Coronavirus. And don’t forget to sign up for NotifyLA, our city’s emergency notification system. For more questions, you can call 211, the County’s hotline, which is available 24/7.
Please share this information with your friends, family, and neighbors.
Community fears are best faced with community bonds, and by keeping yourself prepared, you protect those around you. Looking out for each other in this way is what neighborhoods are all about, and I can think of no better neighborhood than Studio City to be diligent in helping limit the impact of this coronavirus.
Stay safe, watch your hands thoroughly, and be kind to your local retail workers!

Studio City NC Update - February 16, 2020
Posted on 02/16/20Happy President's Day, stakeholders of Studio City, let's get to the updating...
It's the week of our monthly SCNC board meeting, this Wednesday, February 19 at 7pm in building 8, room 3 on the CBS Studio Center lot. As always, all of our meetings are open to the public, so please take a look at this month's agenda and see if anything catches your interest or come join us even if you just want to get a glimpse of how our local government operates!
One item of note, of course, is the filling of the vacant board seat for the At-large stakeholder. Thank you to those who have already submitted your candidacies, and to those still interested, there's still time! If you'd like to throw your hat into the ring, email a brief candidate statement to our Corresponding Secretary, Alexa Steinberg. We ask that all candidates be present at the board meeting so other board members can ask questions and make an informed choice.
But that's not all this week for the SCNC. This Friday, starting at 5:30pm at the Studio City Library, we kick off our Open Forum series for local candidates on the March 3rd ballot.

Studio City NC Update - February 9, 2020
Posted on 02/09/20Look out Studio City stakeholders, it's time for some SCNC updates!
First up, let's take a look at some of this week's committee meetings:
Monday, February 10 at 6:30pm, Government Affairs Committee in our conference room in Editorial 2, Room 6. CBS Studio Center. (agenda) (map)
Tuesday, February 11 at 7:30pm, Homelessness Committee in their usual meeting place at the First Christian Church on the corner of Moorpark and Colfax. (agenda)
Wednesday, February 12 at 7:00pm, Land Use Committee in the meeting room where we usually have our board meeting in building 8, room 3. CBS Studio Center. (agenda)(map)
As always, all of our meetings are open to the public, if you're attending one of the meetings on the CBS Studio Center lot, please park in the Sater lot and allow enough time to check in with security and walk directly to the meeting rooms. Maps are attached below this update.
SCNC’s Land Use Committee Chair, Lisa Karadjian would like to thank the tireless effort put forth by the Tujunga Village Neighbors in particular, Elisa Gabrielli and Julie Faubert for having filed and fought for an appeal against the Verizon Cell Tower in our neighborhood. An update will follow as soon as a final decision has been made by City Planning. Residents organizing together to have a voice in their own neighborhoods is one of the best ways local communities stay local and speaks to the purpose of the neighborhood council system.
Additionally, all involved would like to express their gratitude to Assemblymember Adrian Nazarian, Councilmember Krekorian, and their staff for their vital assistance and support. Their staff-members attendance at the hearing was greatly appreciated.
All stakeholders are welcome to attend Wednesday night's Land Use Meeting - 7PM.
Speaking of people getting involved, a reminder that we will be filling a vacant board seat for the At-large stakeholder at our monthly board meeting next week on February 19. If you'd like to throw your hat into the ring, email a brief candidate statement to our Corresponding Secretary, Alexa Steinberg. We ask that all candidates be present at the board meeting so other board members can ask questions and make an informed choice.
With that, I'll sign off for now, and leave you with a sincere thank you for the continued privilege of serving Studio City.

Luminaria - This Sunday, December 8
Posted on 12/03/19
The free event includes multiple entertainment, including a big band, a choral group and bell ringers... all doing holiday favorites. There will be children's activities including Friends of the Studio City Library reading children's stories as well as oral history tours of the Campo and holiday refreshments. To celebrate the season, the Campo will be decorated with beautiful Luminarias throughout the historic grounds.
Free parking is available in the adjacent Metro Subway Station parking lot with a free slip that can be printed from this link or obtained at the west entrance to the Campo on the day of the event.
Studio City NC Update - November 17, 2019
Posted on 11/17/19To the friends and stakeholders of Studio City,
Our monthly board meeting is this Wednesday, November 20 at 7pm in our usual meeting room on the CBS Studio Center lot in Building 8 (here's a map on where to park and where to go). This month, we have a special guest – City Councilmember Paul Krekorian, who will give an update on our community and take any questions you may have.
We will, of course, hear updates from our hardworking Committees on the various ways they’ve been making Studio City better for all, and since this will be our last board meeting before our annual Luminaria on December 8th, we will be reaching out to the public for ways you can help with this year’s event.
Please know that all of our meetings are open to the public, and everyone is welcome to attend and give public comment on any issue that affects us here in Studio City. Take a look at this month’s agenda and see if there’s anything that grabs your attention, things that you wish to get more involved in, or even if you just want to grab some light refreshments and see how it all works! Our work is best served when it’s done in close collaboration with everyday members of the public.
One thing that's coming up beforehand, we have a last minute need for two Census Goodwill Ambassadors for the upcoming 2020 census from Studio City. The training is this Tuesday, November 19 from 6:30-8:00pm at Los Angeles City Hall, and we need to make sure that Studio City is counted! You don't even yet need to be directly involved with the SCNC to become one of our census liaisons, so please reach out to me and I'll get you set up. We need all hands on deck to ensure that Los Angeles is properly counted to get the funding and representation that we deserve for the next 10 years.
And finally, if you’d like to stay in touch with the SCNC, our social media presence has come alive, through Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, or you can always directly email me and I can help you reach answers for which you may have questions.
That’s all for now, thank you for the continued privilege of serving Studio City, and I hope to see you all on Wednesday night!

Studio City NC Update - October 8, 2019
Posted on 10/08/19
A quick update on how the Studio City Neighborhood Council is doing the work of the community this week!
Tonight, the Outreach Committee meets, led by its new chair, Alli Spotts-De Lazzer - if you've noticed the more engaged SCNC social media presence over the last month, you have Alli to thank. She has been committed to making sure that the stakeholders of Studio City are aware of all of the updates that affect our neighborhood, but she can't do it alone! If you're interested in getting involved helping out, please attend tonight and see how best you can help our outreach efforts.
Tomorrow night is the Land Use Committee meeting, where Lisa Karadjian will be organizing a street cleanup for November 10. Any participation is needed and welcome and is another great way to serve your community and get out and meet your neighbors!
Thursday, we travel outside of our homebase to the Studio City Rec Center in Beeman Park for the Public Safety Committee, in part, for a community discussion on the proposed changes to LAMC 41.18.
In just over a week, we'll be having our monthly board meeting, and part of this month is hosting Department of City Planning to provide an informational update on the launch of the Ventura-Cahuenga Boulevard Corridor Specific Plan amendment process.

Studio City NC Update
Posted on 09/15/19To the stakeholders of Studio City (that's pretty dry and formal, isn't it?)
I cannot believe that another whole month has gone by and it's now time for our September board meeting this Wednesday - same Studio City time, same Studio City place - 7pm in Building 8 on the CBS Studio Center lot. And get a look at this agenda! Another month of hard work from our volunteers, stakeholders, and committees.
Take a look over the agenda and please join us. Among many things, we'll be hearing from the Clean Water Outreach Team from LA Sanitation & Environment to brief us on an emergency sewer repair and putting forward the proposed revisions to our Bylaws and Operating Procedures.
Also on the agenda is to fill the Residential Renter vacancy (as well as the still-vacant Youth Member position). If you're interested in being considered for the seat on the SCNC Board, email me by noon on Wednesday to throw your hat into the ring! Make sure to be present at the board meeting to field any questions.
Of course, that's not the only way to get involved with the SCNC. If you wanted to be one of our liaisons to the city or wish to join one of our committees, reach out and we can find the right spot for you to help contribute to your community.
I'd like to take this time to thank Alli Spotts-De Lazzer and our Vice President, Randy Fried, for taking on the SCNC website and making it much more approachable and welcoming. More changes coming soon, but we're starting to get rid of all of these cobwebs. If you haven't checked out the website lately, it's definitely worth a look (and a bookmark!)
Thank you to all the stakeholders that emailed me last week about the styles of these updates - I will continue to keep these as lively as I can! This kind of feedback is great and helps us make sure we're getting the right messages across to fit your needs.
And with that, I'll sign off for now and of course, a thank you for the continued privilege of serving the people of Studio City.

Posted on 08/24/15
The Dispute Resolution program is a community-based program which provides free mediation, conciliation, and facilitation service in English and Spanish. Other languages are provided upon request. Mediation is a process in which the parties to the conflict meet face-to-face to discuss their dispute with the guidance and support of a neutral mediator. In addition, disputes between parties may also be solved through the telephone through a process known as conciliation, in which the mediator discusses the dispute with both parties until the dispute is resolved. Mediators do not provide any legal advice whatsoever and serve as a neutral party to alleviate disputes.
