This is the City Clerk's status for the council file itself, not the outcome of the measure. A file often stays open after the Council has already adopted an item. The summary above reflects the latest recorded action.

Brief

Councilmember Tim McOsker introduced a motion to examine the feasibility and legal authority regarding access points for three parcels on East Lomita Boulevard and North Blinn Avenue in San Pedro (APNs 7426-027-018, 7426-027-019, 7426-027-020).

Full summary

On August 28, 2026, Councilmember Tim McOsker introduced a motion, seconded by Eunisses Hernandez, directing city departments to analyze whether the City can legally require that all vehicle access to three adjacent Wilmington properties — 1502 East Lomita Boulevard, 1600 East Lomita Boulevard, and 1612 North Blinn Avenue — be limited to the north end of the site. The motion is framed as part of ongoing nuisance abatement efforts at these parcels, connecting it to a related Council file (26-0171) under which the Council previously directed a broader nuisance abatement report. The motion instructs the Department of City Planning and the Department of Transportation, with assistance from the Department of Building and Safety and the Los Angeles Police Department, and in consultation with the City Attorney, to prepare a report assessing the feasibility and legal authority for the proposed access restriction. The report must also identify any required land use approvals, code enforcement actions, property improvements, environmental review, or other measures necessary to implement the new ingress and egress configuration, along with a potential timeline. Departments are further directed to incorporate relevant data and background from the pending nuisance abatement report already in progress under the related file. The motion was referred to the Planning and Land Use Management Committee, which approved it unanimously among members present on September 8, 2026, with Blumenfield and Lee absent. The full Council adopted the motion on September 18 by an 11-0-4 vote, subject to reconsideration under Council Rule 51. No fiscal impact analysis has been completed, and no community impact statements were submitted. The file remains open pending the departmental report that the Council has now directed.
