LA County to review proposals aimed at tracking so-called sheriff's gangs

Fire survivors, UCLA launch insurance survey

he county Board of Supervisors Tuesday directed its staff to review a series of proposed measures aimed at identifying and cataloguing alleged deputy gangs within sheriff's department to see if any of the proposals would require discussions with the deputies' union before they could move forward. The board directed the county CEO, in conjunction with the sheriff, county attorneys and employee relations officials, to review the proposals included in a sweeping motion by Supervisor Holly Mitchell aimed at detailing the extent of deputy gangs within the department. The CEO was instructed to return with a report to the board in 30 days After ordering that review, the board then voted to delay its consideration of the actual proposed directives until the CEO completes its report. Mitchell was the lone dissenter in both votes, saying she wanted to proceed with her motion as a whole concurrently with the CEO review of possible union meet-and-confer issues. County CEO Joe Nicchitta noted that much of

Mitchell's motion only asks for reports on the process for moving ahead with various issues. He said preparing such reports likely will not require the county to confer with the union, but once the county tries to implement actual directives, some might require union talks. Overall, Mitchell's motion calls on county staff to take a series of steps toward identifying and cataloguing deputy gangs, asking that they report in 120 days with a "comprehen-

sive framework" for doing so. It also called on the sheriff and other county agencies to develop a process for publicly identifying gangs, but to develop a confidential report to the board in 120 days listing all suspected gangs in the department, a summary of the status of pending investigation concerning allegations relating to gangs and an explanation of whether current investigations include a requirement

for deputies to show tattoos on their arms and legs. Among other measures, the motion also called for the development of a public accessibly public reporting system to documents complaints and allegations of deputy gangs. Mitchell acknowledged that there has been progress within the department addressing the issue, and "the goal of today's motion is to keep that progress

he Every Fire Survivor's Network and a team of UCLA researchers on Monday launched the L.A. Fire Survivor Insurance Survey, which organizers said is a first-of-its-kind effort to create an open public record of how insurers perform for families after disaster. The survey is on the internet at FireSurvey.org and will close when an adequate number of survivors have responded to create statistically meaningful results, according to the EFSN. No comprehensive public dataset exists to provide answers about insurance recovery from the Eaton and Palisades fires, EFSN members said. Key questions include: "Did some insurance companies systematically underinsure their policyholders? "How is each insurer handling smoke-damage claims? "Did some insurers systematically nonrenew policyholders and move them onto the FAIR Plan before the fires? "Which insurers show patterns of delays, underpayments or denials that warrant further investigation?

"Which insurers are communicating effectively and sending capable adjusters? "And which insurers fulfilled their contracts, paid survivors fully and on time, and did a stellar job helping their customers recover?" according to the advocacy organization initially called the Eaton Fire Survivors Network. A Los Angeles Times report on the five biggest California wildfires before 2025 found that eight years later, 38% of families who lost homes had rebuilt. The leading factor that determined who rebuilt was whether insurers paid in full and on time. The nonprofit Department of Angels reported that 70% of insured survivors of the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires are facing delays, denials or underpayments that are delaying recovery efforts. That percentage was based on a survey of 1,983 adults in fire-impacted communities from June 3-11, 2025. According to the EFSN, insurers still owe LA fire survivors tens of billions of dollars. The survey aims

The home was engulfed in flames, and the front lawn was smoldering. During the standoff, El

suspect who prompted police to open fire on him when he allegedly backed a vehicle into two officers in Pasadena was behind bars Friday, but it took a K-9 unit to get him into custody. Pasadena resident Keith Trevon Anderson, 32, was being held without bail at the city jail, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department online inmate information. The trouble began in a parking lot in the 200 block of Oakland Avenue around 9:05 p.m. Thursday when officers attempted to stop the vehicle of a suspect who was wanted in connection with an assault with a deadly weapon investigation, according to the Pasadena Police Department. The driver "backed his vehicle into two Pasadena Police vehicles, injuring an officer," police said. "During the incident, an

officer-involved shooting occurred," police said in a prepared statement. "No officers, suspects or members of the public were struck by gunfire." It was unclear how many officers opened fire or how many rounds were discharged, but the suspect

remained in the vehicle afterward and did not comply with commands to exit. "After continued efforts to gain his compliance, a Pasadena Police K-9 was deployed, and the suspect was taken into custody," police said. "The injured officer was transported to a hospital for

medical treatment and was subsequently released." Anderson was transported taken to a hospital for medical treatment before being booked on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer. A passenger who had been in the vehicle was also taken to a hospital, where he was treated for minor abrasions and released. Police subsequently arrested him on an unrelated outstanding warrant, also for assault with a deadly weapon. A loaded handgun was recovered from the suspect's vehicle. The incident remains under active investigation and anyone with information about what happened was urged to call Pasadena police at 626-744-4241. Anonymous tips can be submitted through Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS or lacrimestoppers.org.

Restoring trust: Taiwan’s rightful place in the free world By Dr. Lin Chia-lung, minister of foreign affairs, ROC (Taiwan)

T

he rules-based international order is under growing strain as authoritarian states seek to weaken its safeguards and reshape international rule to serve their own interests. Even the fundamental principles of peaceful settlement of disputes and prohibition against the threat or use of force, which are enshrined in the United Nations Charter, have been openly challenged and flagrantly flaunted. Today, the international community stands at a critical juncture. Either we act together to uphold justice, defend the rule of law and maintain peace and security, or we watch the world order steadily crumble away, taking freedom, selfdetermination and democracy with it. There are few places where this choice is more starkly presented than in the first island chain of the Indo-Pacific. The region’s security has come under growing pressure from China, which continues to deploy gray-zone tactics — including military intimidation, cyber intrusions and economic coercion — in an attempt to unilaterally reshape the existing rules and norms. Standing on the front line of defense of freedom and democracy, Taiwan will continue to firmly uphold the status quo. However, preserving peace and stability in the region is not just in Taiwan’s interests. It is a shared concern of the inter-

national community. The Taiwan Strait is one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes and a major artery for international supply chains. Its significance to global security and prosperity is reflected in statements from the G7 and other summits and ministerial-level meetings between Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and other countries. They make up a growing chorus of voices worldwide that underline the importance of crossstrait peace and stability. The integrity of the rules-based order is also being undermined by China’s deliberate misrepresentation of UN General Assembly Resolution 2758. Adopted in 1971, the resolution covers the question of China’s representation at the UN. The text does not mention Taiwan, determine its political status or address its participation in the UN system. Yet China has conspired to conflate UNGA 2758 with the so-called “one China principle” and use the resolution to block Taiwan’s participation in the UN and other international organizations. If left unchecked, this distortion could set a dangerous legal precedent and serve as a pretext for future military action across the Taiwan Strait. Despite its exclusion from the UN, Taiwan is determined to act as a force for good. The strengths that Taiwan possesses in

advanced manufacturing, disaster preparedness and public health could contribute to the international community in many ways. Taiwan has pursued an integrated and value-added foreign policy based on strengthening democratic alliances, promoting collective security and building economic resilience. Working with like-minded partners, Taiwan advances democracy, human rights and freedom worldwide. As a leader in semiconductors, artificial intelligence and technology, Taiwan is committed to building supply chains that are secure, resilient and free from dependence on authoritarian regimes. Through its Diplomatic Allies Prosperity Project, Taiwan fosters coprosperity with its partners. Taiwan contributes its expertise and resources to technology-driven projects in cooperation with its diplomatic allies to address development challenges and enhance local capacities. Concrete examples include collaboration on an integrated healthcare information system with Paraguay, the construction of a strategic oil reserve facility in Eswatini and collaboration with Palau National Hospital on smart health care. These initiatives have strengthened data management and efficiency, bolstered energy security, fostered industrial growth and advanced sustainable development.

Khalilur Rahman, president-elect of the upcoming 81st UN General Assembly, has made restoring trust and managing institutional transformation the overarching themes of his presidency. Taiwan shares these objectives and stands ready to help realize them. Restoring confidence in the UN must begin with treating every member of the international community in a fair and just way. Transformation cannot be complete while a construc-

tive and trustworthy member remains unjustly excluded. We are calling on the international community to uphold the principles of inclusiveness, leaving no one behind, settling disputes peacefully and neither threatening nor using force. These imperatives underpin the rules-based international order and should be applied consistently and without exception. The free world needs Taiwan — and a stronger,

more credible United Nations needs Taiwan’s meaningful participation. Working hand in hand with Taiwan will strengthen collective security, enhance economic and technological resilience and build our shared capacity to withstand authoritarian pressure. Ensuring Taiwan’s meaningful participation in the United Nations is therefore essential to building a more inclusive, secure, resilient and rules-based international order.

proposed federal tax credit for film and television production could generate an additional $125.3 billion in U.S. production spending and support an average of 143,500 full-timeequivalent jobs annually through 2035, according to an industry-commissioned study released Tuesday. The Motion Picture Association commissioned global screen-sector consulting firm Olsberg SPI to examine the potential economic effects of a federal production incentive amid increased competition for film and television production. The study modeled a 20% federal tax credit for money spent employing U.S. workers, with an additional 5% for labor costs in federally declared disaster areas and another 5% for independent production companies. The model assumed a minimum production expenditure of $1 million and a Jan. 1, 2027, effective date. The report stressed that there is no formal government proposal for a federal incentive and described the model as an illustrative scenario based on a publicly reported industry-supported proposal. It also assumed existing state production incentives would remain unchanged. The push for a federal production incentive has been building for more than a year and received a boost last month when President Donald Trump called on Congress to approve tax incentives for the entertainment industry. Trump said the proposal followed discussions with actor Jon Voight, one of his Hollywood ambassadors. Under the study's assumptions, U.S.-based production

spending would total about $277.5 billion from 2027 through 2035 with the federal incentive, compared with about $152.2 billion without it -- a difference of roughly $125.3 billion. The additional spending would generate an estimated $249.1 billion in gross value added and $133.1 billion in labor income over the nineyear period, according to the study. Researchers projected an annual average of 153,700 additional jobs, equivalent to about 143,500 full-timeequivalent jobs when varying work patterns and temporary or contract employment are taken into account. The report said 39 states operated active film and television incentive programs as of August, with some supplemented by regional or county programs. The United States does not have a national production incentive. According to the study, 65 countries have national production incentives. It cited

Canada and Australia as major production markets where national and sub-national incentives can be combined. The study's projections depend on several assumptions about the future of global and U.S. production. Without a federal incentive, researchers assumed the U.S. share of global featurefilm production spending would decline to 25% by 2035 and its share of television production would fall to 29%. With the proposed incentive, the model assumed the U.S. share would rise to 65%, reaching that level by 2030 for film and 2032 for television. Researchers also assumed global production spending would grow by 3.7% annually. The report noted limitations to its projections, including that the economic model does not account for future policy changes, macroeconomic changes or potential responses by other countries, such as strengthening their own production incentives.

CLA researchers have received a federal grant worth up to $7 million over five years to launch a clinical trial examining whether drugs used to treat autoimmune diseases can prevent or reverse a rare form of diabetes caused by cancer immunotherapy, UCLA announced Tuesday. The grant from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health, will fund a multicenter phase 1/2 trial expected to begin enrolling patients in early 2027. Researchers said the trial will examine immune checkpoint inhibitor- induced type 1 diabetes, which affects an estimated 1% to 2% of patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. The cancer treatments are used for melanoma, lung cancer, kidney cancer and other cancers. The complication can destroy insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, leaving patients dependent on insulin for the rest of their lives, according to UCLA. "Cancer immunotherapy has changed the lives of so many patients, but some of the immune-related side effects can be devastating," said Dr. Melissa Lechner, an associate professor of medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. "We hope this is just the first of many trials that will allow us to better prevent and treat immunerelated adverse events while preserving the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy." Immune checkpoint inhibitors work by allowing immune cells to recognize and attack cancer, but the

heightened immune response can also attack healthy tissue. Such immune-related complications can affect the thyroid, liver, lungs, heart and pancreas, according to researchers. More than 5,000 patients have been treated with checkpoint inhibitor therapies at UCLA, according to the university. Previous research by Lechner's team identified immune cells known as T follicular helper cells that appear to play a role in the development of checkpoint inhibitor-induced diabetes. Researchers found in preclinical studies that JAK inhibitors, drugs already approved for some autoimmune and inflammatory conditions including psoriasis and arthritis, can interfere with inflammatory signaling pathways involved in the immune attack on the pancreas. In some animal models, the treatment stopped the autoimmune attack on insulin-producing cells and

in some cases reversed the damage, according to UCLA. The new trial, called JAK STOP-DM, will test whether JAK inhibitors can protect pancreatic beta cells in people who develop diabetes after receiving checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Researchers will study the drugs' safety and effects on beta-cell function while monitoring whether they interfere with immunotherapy's ability to fight cancer. "This trial is a direct extension of our work to understand what drives autoimmune toxicities from cancer immunotherapy," Lechner said. "By identifying the pathways responsible for these complications, we can begin developing targeted treatments that protect patients from serious side effects without interfering with immunotherapy's ability to fight cancer." The study will be co-led by Dr. Zoe Quandt of UC San Francisco and involves additional UCLA researchers.

UCSD study: 49% of Americans trust midterms will be 'free and fair' By Ryan Murray, City News Service

F

ewer than half of Americans trust that this November's midterm elections will be free and fair, part of a larger loss in trust in civic institutions, a UC San Diego-led study claimed Tuesday. More than 5,000 Americans were surveyed as part of the study, which found trust in the election process has declined precipitously in the last decade across all political leanings. It is the most recent of a series of studies conducted by UCSD since 2022. "Partisan groups have moved in parallel over this period, sharing many of the same concerns about threats to the accuracy and integrity of elections," the paper's authors wrote. "Yet there are deep partisan divides over voting by mail and about the potential presence of federal immigration agents at polling places." Republican trust that votes were being counted accurately was just 54% before the 2024 election, but spiked to 82% afterward, while Democratic trust dropped from 89% to 77% in the same time period. As of Monday's findings, this same metric had declined across all groups, to 63% for Democrats, 58% for Republicans and 49% for independents. The reasons for the distrust vary. Democrats

and independent voters are concerned about Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers at polling locations, while Republicans are more concerned with mail-in ballots and noncitizens voting. Of note, many respondents of all political beliefs believe there will be ICE presence at polling locations. Where they differ is how that would impact their confidence. A total of 60% of Democrats said ICE presence would lower their confidence, while 46% of Republicans said it would raise theirs. Dartmouth College political scientist Brendan Nyhan, one of the paper's authors, said while ICE presence could have a chilling effect, it would likely be just a few locations nationally, and not widespread immigration enforcement. Additionally, it could backfire, he said. "There could be a counter effect, a rallying moment which could have a positive impact on voter turnout," he said. "I'm not saying it is a good thing for democracy, but there is that to think about." A study by conservative thinktank The Heritage Foundation found voting by noncitizens is extremely rare, finding just 23 cases between 2003 and 2022. A 2016 Brennan Center for

Justice study found elections officials reported just .0001% of the 23.5 million votes cast in 42 jurisdictions surveyed were of suspected noncitizens. The impact of such a presence differs by race, with 39% of Asian and Pacific Islanders surveyed listing it as a concern, compared to just 9% in white respondents. On Monday, the Supreme Court denied a Trump administration emergency appeal to limit voting by mail, just seven weeks before the midterms. The decision maintained a lower court's ruling, which blocked the U.S. Postal Service from following an executive order to use unique envelopes with barcodes to verify recipients. In California, more than 80% of voters do so by mail, and have since 2020, according to the California Secretary of State. "I don't think this ruling will have much impact on voter confidence," said Lauren Prather, a UCSD political scientist and one of the authors of the paper. "If it had gone the other way, it would have had a massive impact in confidence, especially in Democrats and independents." Despite California's longstanding mail-in voting, just 5% of all voters surveyed said they were "most confident" it was the

best way for their votes to be counted, UCSD political scientist Thad Kousser said. He added that trust in elections is not the only thing that has declined. "Name your civic institution, trust is lower in it than a decade ago," he said. Across all voters, skepticism in the integrity of elections has risen due to redistricting efforts, foreign interference and threat of cyberattacks. There is also strong bipartisan support for banning election officials from betting on elections through prediction markets such as Kalshi or Polymarket. While the prognosis detailed in the report is

fairly bleak, the authors do note that there is hope. If election officials -- which for Democrats and independents were the most trusted source of election information, compared to President Donald Trump for Republicans -- provide information about how ballots are counted and how votes are protected, trust in the process increases significantly. "The challenge is getting the information out there," Kousser said. "Both sides still believe elections are winnable," Nyhan said. Also, the cynicism and/ or skepticism applies in a broader sense, but not close

to home. "People are more likely to believe their ballot was counted accurately," Prather said. As for election officials, they rank violence and threats of it against themselves and poll workers as the biggest problem in ensuring fair and free elections. The number of cases of threatening phone calls against these officials is "unprecedented," Prather said. The survey is ongoing, with UCSD teams collecting answers from another 5,000 Americans before the election. An additional survey is likely after the midterms.

Cedars-Sinai performs its first HIV-to-HIV organ transplants By City News Service

D

octors at the CedarsSinai Comprehensive Transplant Center have performed the institution's first kidney and liver transplants in which organs from deceased donors with HIV were transplanted into recipients who also have HIV, the hospital announced Monday. The approach can significantly shorten the wait for a lifesaving organ, officials said.

The patient who received the first HIV-positive donor kidney had been on the wait list for more than two years and was not expected to receive an organ offer in the near future. Once listed on the HIV-positive organ list, the patient received an organ offer in less than a week. This patient and the first HIV-positive liver recipient are doing well following their transplants, which were

made possible by the center's new HIV-to-HIV transplant program, currently the only one of its kind in the Los Angeles area. "We brought together a team of liver and kidney transplant surgeons, nephrologists, hepatologists, transplant pharmacists, infectious disease experts, transplant coordinators and more to launch this program," said transplant surgeon Dr. Tsuyoshi Todo,

the lead surgeon on both transplants. Cedars-Sinai's HIV-toHIV transplant program represents a dramatic shift from just over a decade ago, when federal law prohibited organs from donors with HIV from being transplanted into any patient, including those where were also HIV-positive. That changed in 2013 with the passage of the HIV Organ Policy Equity Act, which

allowed clinical researchers to study HIV-to-HIV transplants. After years of research documented the safety and effectiveness of HIV-to-HIV transplants, the rule was amended in 2024, removing the strict research requirements, and Cedars-Sinai quickly formed a multidisciplinary committee of experts to bring the institution's HIVto-HIV program to life. "The first six months

post-transplant is when the immune system is being hit the hardest," said Dr. Christopher Foltz, lead infectious disease specialist for the HIVto-HIV transplant program at Cedars-Sinai. "We will monitor the patient's HIV closely during this time, but eventually, they'll be able to get back to monitoring once or twice a year, like they would have been doing before."

'The Pitt' repeats, 'Widow's Bay' wins big at Emmy Awards By City News Service

T

he casts and creators of "The Pitt" and "Widow's Bay" were celebrating Tuesday after taking the top honors at the 78th Emmy Awards at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles, where "Widow's Bay" capped a record-setting run with 14 Emmys overall. "Widow's Bay" collected six awards during Monday night's ceremony, adding to eight it won during an earlier Emmy ceremony. Its Monday haul included lead actor in a comedy series for Matthew Rhys, who made history by also taking the lead actor prize in a limited or anthology series or movie for "The Beast in Me." "The Pitt," which entered the ceremony as the year's most-nominated program with 25 nominations, won outstanding drama series for the second consecutive year. The medical drama had already collected four awards during the earlier Emmy ceremonies, including outstanding guest actor in a drama series for Ernest Harden Jr. Executive producer R. Scott Gemmill accepted the drama series award on behalf of the production and used his remarks to emphasize the importance of storytelling. "When I look around this room, I see something more important than the awards and the ratings. I see a whole community that's still trying to do the right thing," Gemmill said. "It is so hard to tell what is real and what we can believe anymore, which makes telling honest stories about real human struggles so much more important than ever." Gemmill said storytelling can help people "understand

and appreciate each other, and that's more important than ever." "The Pitt" prevailed over Netflix's "The Diplomat," HBO Max's "The Gilded Age" and "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms," Hulu's "Paradise," and Apple TV's "Pluribus," "Slow Horses" and "Your Friends & Neighbors." Noah Wyle added another victory for "The Pitt," winning outstanding lead actor in a drama series for the second consecutive year. "I grew up in LA. I'm a Hollywood kid. I was raised on television, and movie theaters were my place of worship," Wyle said. "This is all I've ever wanted to do, and this is the only club I've ever wanted to join. Thank you for accepting me." The other nominees were Sterling K. Brown for "Paradise," Gary Oldman for "Slow Horses," Mark Ruffalo for "Task" and Rufus Sewell for "The Diplomat." Rhea Seehorn took home outstanding lead actress in a drama series for "Pluribus," invoking Gloria Steinem while addressing her fellow nominees. "Quoting Gloria Steinem, saying, 'We are linked, not ranked,"' Seehorn said. "And I feel that way about all you women, so thank you." The other nominees were Carrie Coon for "The Gilded Age," Chase Infiniti for "The Testaments," Keri Russell for "The Diplomat" and Zendaya for "Euphoria." "Pluribus" also earned Vince Gilligan the Emmy for outstanding writing for a drama series. Gilligan called the premise of "Pluribus" "so weird — a world in which everybody gets along." "It's so sci-fi," Gilligan

said. "But think about it. There is nothing weirder than our current reality. These past 10 years, you can't write this stuff." Gilligan said a world in which people get along is "just as believable as what we've got now. And achievable." "We will never agree on everything, but we can show respect to one another, maybe even kindness, and we can stop listening to a relative few who tell us that that is for suckers and who get their power from dividing us," Gilligan said. Saul Metzstein captured outstanding directing for a drama series for "Slow Horses." Tom Pelphrey won outstanding supporting actor in a drama series for "Task" and concluded his acceptance speech by thanking his partner, Kaley Cuoco. "And to my favorite actor in this room, my love, my best

friend, my partner, the very pregnant Kaley Cuoco, I love you more than anything, and our family is the crown jewel of my life," Pelphrey said. "Matilda, Daddy loves you. Baby girl in that belly, Daddy loves you." Allison Janney claimed outstanding supporting actress in a drama series for "The Diplomat." "This was not what I planned for this category at all, and I'm very surprised and very, very grateful to be here," Janney said. Janney called series star Keri Russell "the coolest woman on the planet" and said she was grateful to be part of the show's cast. In the comedy categories, "Widow's Bay" emerged as the night's dominant program, with its series victory joining acting wins for Rhys, Stephen Root and Kate O'Flynn, a directing victory for Hiro Murai and a writing award for series creator Katie Dippold.

Dippold described the show as a collaboration among "the best, wonderful weirdos and artists." "Thank you, Apple, for letting us take this crazy, creative swing," Dippold said. "They truly just let us do this weird show, and we can't thank you enough." "Widow's Bay" defeated ABC's "Abbott Elementary," FX's "The Bear," HBO Max's "Hacks," Apple TV's "Margo's Got Money Troubles," Netflix's "Nobody Wants This," Hulu's "Only Murders in the Building" and Apple TV's "Shrinking." Rhys' comedy actor victory was his second trip to the stage for a lead- acting award during the ceremony. He earlier won outstanding lead actor in a limited or anthology series or movie for Netflix's "The Beast in Me." The two victories made Rhys the first performer to win lead acting Emmys in the drama, comedy and limitedseries categories during a career, and the first man to win two lead-acting Emmys in a single night. Rhys credited Dippold for his "Widow's Bay" victory. "Stephen Root is right that this is purely because of the depraved and twisted mind of Katie Dippold," Rhys said. "Her genius really does live in the recesses of her disturbed brain." The other comedy actor nominees were Yahya AbdulMateen II for "Wonder Man," Steve Carell for "Rooster," Jason Segel for "Shrinking" and Martin Short for "Only Murders in the Building." Rhys acknowledged the strength of the competition while accepting his earlier award for "The Beast in Me." See Emmy Awards Page 11

"This is a real shock, not least because of the caliber and company of the actors in this category," Rhys said. He thanked the show's writers and director Antonio Campos and praised co-star Claire Danes, saying the cast was "led ferociously, fiercely, fervently by the incredible Claire Danes." "Thank you for letting me join the mystery machine and bringing out the beast," Rhys told Danes. "You are an intimidating scene partner, but I'm very grateful for all this." Jean Smart won outstanding lead actress in a comedy series for "Hacks," giving her an eighth career Emmy and her fifth consecutive victory in the category for the HBO Max comedy. Smart opened her acceptance speech by joking about the discomfort women endure getting dressed for awards shows, telling the men in the audience to remain standing while the women sat down. "Just the men stay standing. The girls get to sit down. I'm serious," Smart said, drawing laughs from the audience. The other nominees were Quinta Brunson for "Abbott Elementary," Ayo Edebiri for "The Bear," Elle Fanning for "Margo's Got Money Troubles" and Lisa Kudrow for "The Comeback." Root won outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series for "Widow's Bay" and used part of his acceptance speech to pay tribute to fellow nominee Harrison Ford. "Thank you, Harrison Ford, because my son came running up to me and said, ‘You're in a category with Harrison Ford,'" Root said. "Thank you, sir, for all your

Series creator Steven Conrad accepted the award on behalf of the production. "I am so proud to be able to speak on behalf of an extraordinary crew and cast," Conrad said. "We were all grateful for a moment like this to say thank you to our families, children, partners and parents. Their good cheer and their faith was really our greatest resource along the way." The other nominees were Peacock's "All Her Fault," Netflix's "The Beast in Me" and "Beef" and FX's "Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette." Sally Field earned outstanding lead actress in a limited or anthology series or movie for "Remarkably Bright Creatures" and used her acceptance speech to defend the importance of diverse voices in the arts. "I have been so grateful and so proud to be a part of this community, the arts, for 62 years or something," Field said. "Our voices matter, our

diversity, our unique storytelling matters. We can't let those voices be silenced or compromised or merged." "The Traitors" captured outstanding reality competition program for the third consecutive year. "The Traitors" host Alan Cumming accepted the award on behalf of the show. "I speak on behalf of all our producers who are running to the stage as though they were on a mission of ‘The Traitors.' Now they know what it feels like," Cumming said. CBS' recently concluded "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" took outstanding variety series, with Colbert accepting on behalf of the more than 200 people who worked on the program during its 11-year run. "The thing about these late shows is that, besides being a really good, steady job, is that they require so many people that they're a fantastic incubator for young people to come in, to learn to work professionally on a deadline, in cooperation, in collaboration," Colbert said. "And that is the future of our business that we have to look after." The ceremony shifted from its competitive awards to honor Michael J. Fox with the Television Academy's Bob Hope Humanitarian Award for his decades of work supporting Parkinson's disease research and advocacy. Actress Julianna Margulies introduced a video montage highlighting Fox's television and film career before he was brought onto the stage in a wheelchair, drawing a lengthy standing ovation. Fox reflected on Hope's influence, saying his parents, who grew up during the Great Depression and World War II, viewed Hope as more than an entertainer because of his decades of support for American troops and military families. "He embodied everything I came to believe in years later," Fox said. "I learned from his example. When it starts to get tough, you show up, you help, and if you add a little joy while you're doing it, that's even better." Fox, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1991, recalled initially keeping

the diagnosis private because he feared it would affect his career and his relationship with audiences. "Would they laugh if they knew I was sick?" Fox said. Fox said the support he received after publicly disclosing his diagnosis eventually helped him realize accepting the disease did not mean surrendering to it. "I understood that accepting Parkinson's didn't mean I had to surrender to it," Fox said. "It just meant doing whatever I could for people living with this disease. So I set out to advocate for patients' needs." Fox founded The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research in 2000. The ceremony also remembered several prominent entertainment figures who died during the past year. Field paid tribute to her "Steel Magnolias" co-star Dolly Parton, remembering her as an artist, humanitarian and friend. "If there are truly angels on Earth, then we just lost one," Field said. Field described Parton as "genuine and humble, supportive and blisteringly funny" and praised her philanthropic work. "I couldn't see then what a real giant Dolly was, not just as an artist, but as a human," Field said. Reba McEntire later

performed "Appalachian Memories" in Parton's honor. "I love you, Dolly, so much," McEntire said at the conclusion of the performance. Macaulay Culkin joined Catherine O'Hara's "Schitt's Creek" co-stars Dan Levy and Annie Murphy on stage immediately before the In Memoriam segment to remember the late actress. Culkin, who played O'Hara's son in the first two "Home Alone" films, remembered her as a mother figure. "She was funny, but the word that I think of is ‘Mama,"' Culkin said. "She was my mom. She was our mama. And by extension, she's all of our mama." "Call your mother tonight. For real," Culkin added. Levy said one of the greatest lessons he learned from O'Hara was "to always say yes." "Say yes to her instincts, all of them, as radical as they may sometimes seem," Levy said. "She is miles ahead of you, and you will learn to catch up." Singer-songwriter Noah Kahan performed "Bridge Over Troubled Water" during the In Memoriam segment. An emotional Jamie Lee Curtis followed the tribute by remembering director James Burrows and filmmaker Rob Reiner. Curtis noted that Reiner won an Emmy during the earlier ceremony for his

guest performance on "The Bear," setting a record for the longest gap between acting Emmy victories. "Last week, Robbie won an Emmy for guest actor in a comedy series for his beautiful work on ‘The Bear,' and he now holds the record of 48 years for the longest gap between acting Emmys, which was previously held by his father, Carl Reiner, at 37 years," Curtis said. Curtis remembered Reiner as "generous and kind, and funny as hell." The Emmy ceremony also marked the 50th anniversary of "Charlie's Angels," reuniting original stars Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith with Cheryl Ladd, who joined the series in its second season. The three actresses received a lengthy ovation when they took the stage at the Peacock Theater to present the outstanding drama series Emmy to "The Pitt." They also remembered Farrah Fawcett, who starred in the show's first season before leaving the series and died of cancer in 2009. "Charlie's Angels" premiered on ABC in September 1976 and became a popculture phenomenon during its five-season run. The ceremony also marked the 30th anniversary of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Mariska Hargitay, meanwhile, opened the ceremony by poking fun at her lengthy tenure on NBC's "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" and noting that she was the first woman to host the Emmys in 15 years. "The Emmys are celebrating their 78th year, and NBC is celebrating its hundredth year, and I have been on ‘Law & Order: SVU' for all of them," Hargitay joked. She also turned her attention to the nominees in the audience. "It is so reassuring to see so many familiar faces out there, and I'm just talking about how many of you I've arrested on ‘SVU,"' Hargitay said. "You guys have done some unspeakable things. I'm talking to you, Martin Short. You should be ashamed of yourself, my friend." Hargitay later shifted to a

more serious tone, reflecting on television's role in storytelling. "I am truly, deeply moved, and so incredibly grateful to be in a room full of people who have dedicated their lives to telling stories," Hargitay said. "Since the beginning of time, humans have all gathered around the light to tell stories. Back then, it was the fire in the cave, and now it's the screen of your choice." Hargitay also appeared as her "SVU" character Olivia Benson in a pre- taped sketch investigating whether Taylor Swift would attend the Emmy Awards. The sketch suggested Swift would instead be attending a Kansas City Chiefs game to watch her husband, tight end Travis Kelce, play. Swift eventually appeared in the segment with a white cat, joking, "Maybe she's gonna do one of those cool, pretaped sketch things to support the host." The 78th Emmy Awards began Sept. 5 with the presentation of 49 awards for reality, nonfiction and variety programming and mainly technical categories, followed Sept. 6 by 53 awards for scripted programming. The awards presented during the first two ceremonies had previously been known as the Creative Arts Emmys, but a shift of seven awards from what had been known as the Primetime Emmy Awards to the earlier ceremonies prompted the rebranding of all three ceremonies as the 78th Emmy Awards. "Widow's Bay" was the top winner during the Sept. 6 ceremony with eight awards, including outstanding guest actress in a comedy series for Betty Gilpin. "DTF St. Louis" collected six awards during the earlier ceremonies, including outstanding supporting actress and actor in a limited or anthology series or movie for Linda Cardellini and David Harbour. "The Pitt" won four awards during the earlier ceremonies, including outstanding guest actor in a drama series for Ernest Harden Jr.

Street Address or other common designation of real property: 225 ROSEMONT BOULEVARD, SAN GABRIEL, CA 91775 A.P.N.: 5363021018 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, under the terms of said Deed of Trust, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $ 387,194.54. Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary of the Deed of Trust has executed and delivered to the undersigned a written request to commence foreclosure, and the undersigned caused a Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this property. Please be advised that the trustee may require entity or trust bidders at this trustee’s sale to provide information, documentation and/or certification of the vesting instructions and the data required to be reported pursuant to FinCEN regulations effective for transfers of residential real property to covered transferees on or after March 1, 2026. The required information must be provided to the trustee before a trustee’s deed upon sale will be issued for covered transfers. Additional information regarding these regulations and the required transferee information and certifications can be found at https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/08/29/2024-19198/anti-money-laundering-regulations-for-residentialreal-estate-transfers and https://www. fincen.gov/rre-faqs#d_5 NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

Newsom, in Altadena, signs laws to strengthen wildfire recovery system By City News Service

C

alifornia Gov. Gavin Newsom Tuesday signed a package of bills in Altadena to expand mortgage protections, strengthen insurance coverage, improve testing and remediation standards, and create a permanent framework to accelerate wildfire recovery in light of last year's Eaton and Palisades fires. The new laws create standards for testing and remediating hazardous wildfire smoke contamination for future fires and require insurers to cover qualifying smoke-damage testing, remediation and restoration. The bills also permanently extend mortgage forbearance protections for disaster-affected homeowners. The governor signed the bills at a meeting with fire survivors, advocates, community leaders and the bill authors. The legislation was developed and drafted with considerable input from these communities, the governor said. "California will not leave survivors to navigate recovery alone," Newsom said in a statement. "In the wake of the 2025 firestorms, we are continuing to listen, act, and stand alongside the families and communities rebuilding after the Eaton and Palisades fires. These new protections will make insurer obligations clearer

and give homeowners more financial flexibility when they need it most. As fire seasons across the West become a year-round reality, California's commitment to recovery must be just as enduring." The legislation builds on the state's ongoing recovery efforts in Los Angeles, where the state has worked with survivors, local governments and community partners to accelerate debris removal, permitting and rebuilding while providing mortgage relief and other assistance,

officials said. The Department of Insurance estimates that more than 13,000 of the roughly 40,000 insurance claims filed after the January 2025 fires involve smoke damage to homes that never burned. The new legislation marks the country's first enforceable standards for how those homes should be tested, cleaned or restored, Newsom said. Assembly Bills 1642 and 1795 direct the Department of Toxic Substances Control and the California Air

Resources Board to develop the state's first protections for testing, remediation and restoration of lead and asbestos contamination from wildfire smoke, for homes within a fire's ZIP codes. It also requires the DTSC to issue guidance to help schools recover after a wildfire. The legislation also requires insurers pay for lead and asbestos testing and remediation in smokedamaged homes within a wildfire zone, cover full cleanup and restoration to

pre-loss condition, and bars insurers from cutting off Additional Living Expense coverage until a home is actually remediated and safe to occupy. AB 1842 creates a national model for granting mortgage forbearance to future wildfire survivors so no family has to immediately pay a mortgage for a home that no longer exists, according to Assemblyman John Harabedian, DPasadena. AB 1847 extends the Mortgage Relief Act for an

additional year for survivors of the two wildfires who are still trying to rebuild. "Families deserve science-based answers about whether their homes and their schools are safe, and until today no state in the nation had any to give them," said Jane Lawton Potelle, executive director of Eaton Fire Residents United. "That changes now. California is leading the nation in how to recover safely after an urban wildfire. AB 1642 sets the health standards and AB 1795 requires insurers to follow them, so the answer to whether it is safe to go home comes from science instead of guesswork." Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger also applauded the new legislation. "Today's bill signings deliver important protections for Eaton Fire survivors who are still fighting to recover and rebuild," she said. "I thank Governor Newsom and our state legislative partners for listening to survivors and taking action on the very real obstacles they continue to face." Barger said the newly signed laws reflect "meaningful progress, but we must collectively remember that Eaton Fire survivors will need sustained support and accountability for years to come."

Millions in CalKIDS scholarships available to local students By City News Service

L

os Angeles County students will be able to claim a share of $489 million in state scholarship funds this month, with more than 71% of public-school students in grades 2-12 eligible for up to $1,500. The California Kids Investment and Development Savings Program is launching the first CalKIDS Scholarship Month in September, partnering with county offices of education

and school districts across the state. Throughout the month, participating school districts and campuses will host designated CalKIDS Scholarship claiming events where students and families can check eligibility and claim their scholarships on-site. "CalKIDS Scholarship Month is about meeting students where they are and making it easier for

them to access resources that can help support their education after high school," California Treasurer Fiona Ma said. "By bringing CalKIDS directly onto school campuses throughout California, we can help more students take this important step and claim their scholarship funds." For students in grades 9-12, information is available to high school

administrators through WebGrants for Institutions, the state's financial aid platform, via a data-sharing agreement between CalKIDS and the California Student Aid Commission. Schools can use this information to identify students with CalKIDS Scholarships and connect them directly with on-campus claiming opportunities throughout September and beyond. In addition to the

school-based claiming events, students and families can check eligibility and claim a CalKIDS Scholarship online at any time by visiting CalKIDS. org and selecting "Confirm Eligibility." The scholarships can be used for qualified educational expenses, including tuition and fees, books and supplies, computer equipment and other eligible costs at accred-

ited colleges, universities, career training programs and vocational schools nationwide. Launched in 2022 and administered by the ScholarShare Investment Board, CalKIDS has invested more than $2.4 billion in scholarships for more than six million California children and students, according to officials. More information can be found at CalKIDS.org.

Pasadena council resumes search for new city manager By Joe Taglieri joet@civicnewsgroup.com

T

he Pasadena City Council on Friday restarted a national search for a city manager after Mike Futrell decided in April to remain as Riverside's chief administrator. Pasadena is accepting applications for the job through Oct. 16, and the most qualified candidates will be invited to interviews in late October and early November, officials said. The council has hired the Marina del Rey-based Byers Group to oversee the recruitment process. Riverside City Manager Mike Futrell was hired the Pasadena position in midApril, but he withdrew from consideration near the end of the month and opted to stay in Riverside. Futrell had been set to take over Pasadena management May 13. On July 5, he resigned from his Riverside job. No

reason was given for his departure, but it coincided with a legal battle between his wife Susan Freeman and the city. Freeman filed a legal claim, which is a precursor to a lawsuit, on June 11 alleging the city investigated her without due process in retaliation for criticism of public officials. The legal claim followed a letter from the Riverside City Council sent to Freeman alleging she harassed municipal employees, which she has denied. Meanwhile in Pasadena, Interim City Manager Matthew Hawkesworth has remained in the position while council members decide what to do about finding a permanent hire. Pasadena's former City Manager Miguel Márquez announced his resignation in November. He started in the job in August 2022 and left

city service in April. Hawkesworth, who had been the assistant city manager, was appointed to the interim post effective April 17. According to the recruitment brochure, Pasadena's city manager oversees "a General Fund budget of $365 million and a total budget of approximately $1.5 billion, including $446 million for capital improvement projects and $110 million in appropriations for the city’s three operating companies — the Rose Bowl Operating Company, the Pasadena Center Operating Company, and the Pasadena Community Access Corporation. As the City's Chief Administrative Officer, the City Manager will lead 15 departments and approximately 2,200 staff, partnering with and supporting the City Council on policy development while

directing the day-to-day administration of a complex organization." The city used Oregon-

based executive recruitment firm WBCP Inc. for the search that led to Futrell's selection. More information is

available from the city's recruitment brochure available online via tinyurl. com/2s37bkrh.

ize Credit Union hosted a ribboncutting event Tuesday to celebrate a new Monrovia branch. Community members, local leaders and business partners were in attendance at Rize's newest location at 427 S.

Insurance survey to show where that money is getting stuck, which problems are isolated, which are patterns and which insurers are keeping their promises. “Some insurers count on wearing families down until they run out of money or energy to fight back,” EFSN Executive Director Joy Chen said in a statement. “One family can't know whether what happened to them is happening to thousands of others. But when survivors come together, we can see what's really happening and hold insurers accountable.” The EFSN retained Aimery Thomas — managing director of The Future Organization and a research expert who has worked for insurance industry clients — as the survey's design and security consultant. Questions for the survey were developed with "law enforcement and insurance bad-faith litigators" to reveal potential patterns of unlawful conduct, survey organizers said. Questions measure customer experience indicators such as trust, satisfaction, communication and the competence of insurance adjusters. When combined, survey answers can show which patterns need further investigation, law enforcement

action or litigation, and which insurance companies performed well for customers. “Insurance companies sell policies, but what they are really selling is trust,” Thomas said in a statement. “Families pay premiums for years believing their insurer will be there when they need them most. This survey is designed to measure what happens when that promise is finally tested, and show which insurers delivered.” A UCLA research team will aggregate and analyze the survey results and lead development of the public data visualization tools. “We are honored to partner with Every Fire Survivor's Network on this survivor-led effort,” said Gabriella Carmona, senior research analyst at the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs, said in a statement. “Our role is to help turn thousands of individual experiences into rigorous public data. When that evidence is in the public domain, survivors, researchers, journalists and decision-makers can see the patterns, and use that knowledge to help families get home.” Fire survivor advocates said the data can provide leads for law enforcement

investigations and potential prosecution, lawsuits, investigative journalism and regulatory enforcement while also providing evidence for policymakers considering insurance reforms. Survey results will be anonymized and aggregated so no individual household is identifiable, with additional protections where combinations of information could risk identifying a household, according to the EFSN. The survey will create three free public resources that put the results directly into people's hands, EFSN reported: 1. "Open data — An unprecedented public dataset will let survivors, researchers, journalists, regulators, attorneys and the public uncover patterns and compare insurers, with data aggregated so no individual household is identifiable. 2. "Interactive data visualization — Anyone will be able to select an insurer, issue or survivor experience, filter and combine variables, and instantly turn the results into clear charts and comparisons. Millions of data points will become a searchable picture of insurance recovery across Los Angeles.

3. "A public insurer performance report — EFSN and UCLA will report results insurer by insurer and, where the data supports meaningful comparisons, rank insurers to show where serious problems emerged and which companies served their customers well." “If your insurer delayed, denied or underpaid you, say so. If they kept their promises and helped you recover, say that too,” Chen said. “This is our chance as survivors to create the record none of us had when the fires happened. Make sure your experience counts when your insurer's

performance is measured.” The survey will be available until enough responses are collected for statistically meaningful information for the insurers and groups in the study. The estimated 15-minute survey addresses underinsurance, smoke damage and the FAIR Plan while skipping questions that don't apply. The FAIR Plan, or Fair Access to Insurance Requirements is a state-mandated property insurance pool that acts as an insurer of last resort for stakeholders unable to find coverage in the private market.

The survey is available in English, Spanish, Chinese and Korean and asks for one response per household. Previously, the EFSN has turned more than 2,200 first-hand accounts from LA fire survivors into actionable evidence, according to the group. That evidence led to a lawsuit filed in May against the California Department of Insurance and State Farm and LA County's recent lawsuit against State Farm, helping unlock more than $100 million in additional payments from the largest insurer operating in California.

If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (844) 901-0998 for information regarding the trustee’s sale, or visit this internet website HTTPS://SALESINFORMATION. PRIME-RECON.COM for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case TS#184690 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. Effective March 1, 2026, new federal regulations (89 Fed. Reg. 70.258) require specified information to be reported on non-financed title transfers of residential real property to covered entities and trusts. In order to successfully bid on applicable properties, the successful bidder will be required to complete, sign, and certify a

Exhibit 1: Recommended Fair Oaks Orange Grove Specific Plan Area

Recommended Fair Oaks Orange Grove Specific Plan PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Planning & Community Development Department has prepared an update to the Fair Oaks Orange Grove (FOOG) Specific Plan to replace the prior version (2002). The recommended FOOG Specific Plan will result in a refined vision, goals, policies, permitted uses, development and public realm standards, and guidelines that will shape the built environment for the FOOG Specific Plan area and implement General Plan Land Use policies. The recommended FOOG Specific Plan will require the following approvals: General Plan Map Amendment, Specific Plan Amendment, and Zoning Map and Text Amendments. You may find documents related to the recommended FOOG Specific Plan at www.ourpasadena.org/FOOG-CC-HR-092926. PROJECT LOCATION: The recommended FOOG Specific Plan is generally located along Fair Oaks Avenue and Orange Grove Boulevard and bounded by Woodbury Road to the north, Raymond Avenue and Oakland Avenue to the east, Maple Street to the south, and Lincoln Avenue, Morton Avenue, Sunset Avenue, and Linder Alley to the west (Exhibit 1). ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: An addendum to the 2015 Pasadena General Plan Environmental Impact Report (GP EIR) (State Clearinghouse No. 2013091009) to address the potential site-specific environmental impacts associated with the proposed FOOG has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (CEQA) (Cal. Public Resources Code Section 21000, et. seq., as amended) and its implementing guidelines (Cal. Code Regs., Title 14, Section 15000 et. seq., 2016). This Addendum has been prepared and will be processed consistent with CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs., Title 14, Section 15162 and Section 15164). The addendum found that the recommended FOOG Specific Plan will not result in any potentially significant impacts that were not already analyzed. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: On April 22, 2026, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council approve the proposed FOOG Specific Plan, including the General Plan Map Amendment, Specific Plan Adoption, Zoning Map Amendment, Zoning Text Amendment, and EIR Addendum as presented by staff, with the following additional recommendations: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Change the timeframe for Implementation Action PA-4 (Pedestrian Oriented Art in Public Realm) from Medium-term (5-10 years) to Near-term (0-5 years); Change the timeframe for Implementation Action IMS-10 (Decorative Crosswalk) from Mediumterm (5-10 years) to Near-term (0-5 years) and include the intersection of Penn Street and Fair Oaks Avenue on the list of potential decorative crosswalks; Revise Implementation Action PA-7 (Business Association Formation) to include restorative justice and economic development language; Revise Implementation Action IMS-6 (SRTP Bus Improvements) to include bus shelters and other infrastructure that enhance the streetscape for the transit rider; Change the permit requirement for the ‘Industry, Restricted, Small-Scale’ land use category from a Minor Conditional Use Permit to a by-right use throughout the plan area; Change the residential density from 32 dwelling units per acre (du/ac) to 48 du/ac for the southeast corner of Fair Oaks Avenue and Washington Boulevard; Include pedestrian-oriented standards and/or guidelines to address storefronts in the plan area; and Reconsider the varied roof line provision that allows up to 30 percent of a building’s footprint to exceed the height limit by 12 feet.

Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this property. Please be advised that the trustee may require entity or trust bidders at this trustee’s sale to provide information, documentation and/or certification of the vesting instructions and the data required to be reported pursuant to FinCEN regulations effective for transfers of residential real property to covered transferees on or after March 1, 2026. The required information must be provided to the trustee before a trustee’s deed upon sale will be issued for covered transfers. Additional information regarding these regulations and the required transferee information and certifications can be found at https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/08/29/2024-19198/anti-money-laundering-regulations-for-residentialreal-estate-transfers and https://www. fincen.gov/rre-faqs#d_5 NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the trustee sale, you may obtain information using the trustee sale number assigned to this case to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. This information is available by calling telephone number 949-860-9155 or by visiting this internet website www.innovativefieldservices.com . Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than fifteen (15) days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than fourty-five (45) days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

BOX 6875 SANTA ROSA, CA 95406-0875 By: ROBERT CULLEN, President NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this properly, you may call (800) 683-2468 or visit this Internet Web site: www.servicelinkASAP.com, using the Trustee Sale number assigned to this file, T.S. #26070-PB. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site.

Bass declines summons to Capitol Hill amid probe into LA homeless spending By Jose Herrera, City News Service

M

ayor Karen Bass declined to appear at a U.S. House subcommittee meeting Tuesday on alleged "waste, fraud and abuse" of federal funds linked to the troubled Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority, describing the proceedings as a "politically-motivated hearing to attack LA." The U.S. Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency summoned Bass to Capitol Hill for questioning, as well as to provide records dating back to 2020 related to LAHSA's internal controls, federal funding and communications between Bass' office, LAHSA, the City Council and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. In a letter to the subcommittee, Bass' attorney David Michaelson told the panel that the mayor was unavailable for the hearing without elaborating. Michaelson also notified the panel that the mayor's team would work on its request for communications and other documentation. Bass was instead at a groundbreaking ceremony Tuesday for a project expected to rebuild the firedamaged Palisades Recreation Center, its surrounding park and other areas encompassing 17 acres.

The mayor joined billionaire developer Rick Caruso, who established Steadfast LA, Lakers coach JJ Redick, co-founder of LA Strong Sports, and the LA Department of Recreation and Parks. The hearing, titled "Fixing Fraud and Failure in Federally Funded Homelessness Services," began with the panel taking testimony from Paul Webster, a Cicero Institute senior fellow and former executive director of the LA Alliance for Human Rights, and Jonathan Choe, a Discovery Institute senior fellow and former KOMO-TV reporter who has covered homelessness. Subcommittee Chairman Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tennessee, told the California Post that it was a shame Bass refused to show up and answer questions. "Homelessness has risen in Los Angeles on her watch, and she has overseen a culture of corruption among the nonprofits provided public dollars to address the issue," Burchett said. Bass, who is facing a challenge from Councilwoman Nithya Raman in the Nov. 3 election, blasted the hearing, saying it is the "latest attack on Los Angeles by the Trump administration and his allies in Congress." "This administration

tried to strip Los Angeles of the funding that helps us get people off the street, a federal judge stopped them. They lost in court, so now they're staging a show instead," Bass said in her statement. "They've spent the past year and a half coming after this city. They sent federal agents -- and the military -- into our communities to kidnap our neighbors. They still haven't delivered the disaster relief they promised the families who lost everything in the Palisades. They passed a law that rips health care away from millions of Californians. They tried to gut Head Start and take early education from our kids," the mayor added. Earlier this month, Bass stepped down as a member of the LAHSA Commission after serving a three-year term. She is expected to announce a new appointment to fill her seat in the future. "I don't run LAHSA. It's a joint city-county agency, and I was the first mayor in history to sit on its board. But I am the one who changed how this city fights homelessness -- moving people indoors, cutting red tape, and bringing street homelessness down since the day I took office. If Washington wanted to help, they wouldn't try to cut our

resources," Bass said in her statement. "Los Angeles will not be bullied. Not by this president, and not by this Congress. I'm going to keep doing my job -cleaning up encampments, getting Angelenos inside, and making LA safer," Bass' statement concluded. U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development officials are investigating LAHSA's use of federal funds stemming from allegations of fraud and widespread mismanagement. LAHSA has received over $1 billion in federal funds since 2021, including $220 million in 2024. According to annual data from the U.S. Department of

Housing and Urban Development, California has nearly 182,000 homeless people, Burchett said. Los Angeles County has 73,000 homeless people, and the city of Los Angeles has more than 45,000 homeless people, an increase of 3.4% from the year prior. In June, HUD abruptly suspended further federal funding to LAHSA until officials can show adequate safeguards are in place to protect taxpayer dollars. But last month, a Los Angeles federal judge blocked the decision, finding that the sudden loss of cash would jeopardize housing and services for more than 11,000 people across the

region. U.S. District Judge David Carter's partial preliminary injunction against HUD allows LAHSA access to federal homelessness funding for fiscal year 2026. Also at stake is nearly $241 million already earmarked for the Los Angeles region by Congress, as well as immediate future funding for homelessness in the next fiscal year. Carter's injunction was overruled last week by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, creating uncertainty about LAHSA's role and eligibility as the lead agency coordinating housing and homelessness services across Los Angeles County.

issue. He said investigations of deputy gangs need to focus on actual documented gang activity, not names and symbols. The issue of alleged deputy gangs has long plagued the department. Mitchell's motion listed more than two dozen such gangs within the agency, and included some examples of instances of alleged deputy gang activity. The motion pointed to a 2024 report that multiple deputies at the Lakewood station shared a common tattoo, and another instance of deputies

at the Norwalk station being involved in a gang using "Nazi-like imagery." Mitchell's motion states, "Deputy gangs are not a problem of the past, but a persistent issue that continues today. Notifications to LASD regarding alleged deputy gangs have been made as recently as June 2025, based on data provided to the (Office of Inspector General) in December 2025. If the existence of deputy gangs is not adequately addressed and resolved, this problem will continue to plague the County."

Sheriff's gangs moving forward and to not only engage the sheriff's department but other county departments as well." "This motion is about addressing the system that allows this problem to continue," Mitchell said. "It seeks to determine what we know about deputy gangs, ... how we identify these subgroups ... and what options are available to this board to hold these groups responsible. ... "It does not validate or invalidate every allegation, nor does it assume every group of deputies is a gang."

Sheriff Robert Luna gave a lengthy presentation to the board outlining what he called a series of measures taken during his administration to root out gangs within the department, saying he maintains a zero-tolerance policy. He said he took issue with some of the wording in the motion, saying it could undermine public confidence in the agency by suggesting nothing was being done about the issue. He conceded that more work needed to be done, but tried to convince the board that significant

progress has been made. "I have set very clear expectations for department employees making any gang-like behavior unacceptable," he said. "I have met with all supervisors on this topic repeatedly. I hold meetings with captains and above on this issue specifically to impress upon them their responsibility. No prior sheriff has done this. "I meet with every new recruit class specifically to reinforce a zero- tolerance policy for participation in such groups and behavior," Luna said, adding that all

new recruits sign a pledge vowing not to join a law enforcement gang, while existing deputies sign an acknowledgement of department policies against such gangs, and department members seeking promotion to captain are above are questioned about whether they have participated in any such activity or if they have a group tattoo. The sheriff suggested that the primary thrust of the motion -- identifying the names of deputy gangs and tattoos -- will not do anything to address the
