Quotes

Officials only, in order.

You know, if you expand the catchment zone in my area, you’re going to ostensibly bring folks from Olympic-related areas into the area, but we’re already full and we don’t have enough space for the folks who are homeless, uh, around those, those areas.Bob Blumenfield · Councilmember · District 31:07:10
I’m looking at the list of, um, the venues list. And there are absolutely going to probably be hundreds, if not thousands, of unhoused people who are going to be here.Katy Young Yaroslavsky · Councilmember · District 51:30:19
My second question is, who is going to monitor this from an organizational perspective. I want to know who they are. I want to know what their work ethic is because I, for the first time, have had my, my first negative experience with LA28.Imelda Padilla · Councilmember · District 61:37:36
I mean, our chief of police— I didn’t vote for the current chief of police because when he was the sheriff of LA County, he was out there talking to Jeff Sessions about, you know, how our sanctuary city laws were not well.Hugo Soto-Martinez · Councilmember · District 131:45:12
They also have guarantees to ensure an additional $346 million in allocated contingency for a total of $616 million. So the question is, does the agreement ensure we have audit rights sufficient to confirm LA28 has drawn down the full $616 million in contingency if needed?Katy Young Yaroslavsky · Councilmember · District 52:15:41

How we count

Each summary sentence is checked against the transcript before it is published; in a blind check, 98 of 100 sentences were right. A voice gets an official’s name only when two AI readers and a code check agree, so the minutes undercount and are not attendance. Officials only: members of the public are counted, never named, shown or quoted, and full transcripts aren’t published because they can carry their names. More on how we know
