What is the status of the Wilmont Neighborhood Watch group?

Maybe it's called the Reed Park Watch Group?

what about sunday

Sundays would be perfect

Sunday I agree

I think Saturdays would be a better day.

Thanks Arthur

Sunday for music and benders. Friday nights for movies.

I meant venders.

Prefer Saturday for music/movie

was just going to say mention this stuff on Nextdoor as well

good idea Stephen

this at least makes some sense

excellent thank you

👏Marc!

I may have missed it but what is being paid for by SM’s spending problem?

Marc, what is the status of the Audit of $62MM NGO Homeless programs?

Good question Alissa re where is there too much spending?

For 2020/21 there were about 53 employees with $400,000 + in total compensation.

Here's a link to the Rent Control Board agenda this Thursday. https://www.smgov.net/uploadedFiles/Departments/Rent_Control/About_the_Rent_Control_Board/Agendas_and_Minutes/2022/RcB060922.pdf

What is our City manager doing? sounds like there's no one driving the bus overall...

thank you Marc, excellent presentation. Much more to discuss

The audit of the Homeless programsexpenditures is ongoing. Some members of the Audit Subcommittee is trying to accelerate the delivery date to Sep/Oct instead of Nov.

Our building hasn”t even pulled permits for retrofitting.

is there anything we can do about that?

You can contact building & safety or the code enforcement office. I do not know what the timeline or protocol is for retrofitting. I'll provide links below for convenience.

Above links provide Crime Statistics for SM for period 2003-2021 from SMPD, CA Dept of Justice, and FBI

What is the relationship with LA County Sheriffs Dept given the calls for them to step up patrols in Venice and nearby areas?

I have always had a great working relationship as Sheriff's have been in the city because of the Santa Monica court, expo train, and LA Metro Buses. I've also seen them working on the beach with their mounted horse units

Why are these Crime Statistics NOT being provided to the PUBLIC for 1Qtr2022?

Violent Crimes are consistent across FBI and Ca Dept of Jusice.

This!!!!

Please come by and visit The Ten Women Gallery on Main St., (2791 Main St.) a winner as of tonight of one of the Most Loved Businesses in Santa Monica--especially from July 1 through 15th... Thanks!!!

@Arthur…sorry you went through that. It could be so many of us

Thanks Stephen.

Arthur, I'm glad you are ok, sorry that happened.

@Arthur I hear you brother, I have had a few close calls minding my own business as well.

ITs all the time now

It’s tired

Is it possible to have City Attorney address what are the laws that directly affect "criminal behavior" by homeless and/or druggies?
