Full summary

This motion, introduced by Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martínez and seconded by Councilmember Marqueece Harris-Dawson, proposes a charter amendment related to a schedule of fee studies for presentation to Los Angeles voters on the November 2026 ballot. The exact scope and substance of the fee studies and proposed charter changes are not detailed in the available activity log, which tracks only the procedural movement of the file. The motion was referred to the Rules, Elections and Intergovernmental Relations Committee on April 29, 2026. The committee scheduled the item for consideration on May 14, 2026, then continued it to a date to be determined on May 14. The item was rescheduled for the committee meeting on May 21, 2026, but no outcome from that meeting is yet reflected in the record. As of the most recent activity on May 20, 2026, the file remains pending in committee. Given the November 2026 ballot deadline specified in the title, the motion will need to move through committee review and full Council adoption within the coming months to meet state filing deadlines for ballot measures.
