The Los Angeles City Council convened its regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday, October 27, 2026. The meeting included routine approvals, a lengthy public comment period, and a high-profile vote on whether to veto the Police Commission's approval of an ALPR (automated license plate reader) contract with Axon Enterprise. After extensive debate, the veto failed, allowing the pilot program to proceed.
And if you have those symptoms more than three weeks, you need to see a gynecologic oncologist, and you need to ask for transvaginal ultrasound and a CA125. There is no early detection test, and these are the only two procedures that can possibly detect it. So I've been involved with the ovarian cancer circle for over 10 years. And I was introduced to Paulinda when I had about two years of remission from stage four ovarian cancer. And I found that through my remission and my experience that advocacy and working with Paulinda is really, very rewarding. We do this presentation every year. It's now the 10th year, and it's really to make sure that constituents and Angelinos across the city know what symptoms to keep an eye out for and know that treatment is available if you catch it early. The worst and scariest thing about ovarian cancer is how easily it's overlooked. That there is not a regular pap smear is not going to find you your solution. You need to be aware. Angels Flight is one of the many iconic landmarks that attract visitors to LA. It also serves everyday commuters and those exploring nearby attractions like the Museum of Contemporary Art, The Road, and the Walt Disney concert hall. The historic railway has also made its way to the silver screen, appearing in the classic film noir M, the 2011 The Muppets movie, and the 2016 La La Land, a story that follows the two struggling artists and their dreams to make it big in Hollywood. Recently, Los Angeles celebrated 31 years of music, culture, and community at the Central Avenue Jazz Festival. The festival brought thousands of music lovers together for live performances, food, art, and a celebration of LA's rich music history. We're celebrating the 31st anniversary of the Central Avenue Jazz Festival. It's an exciting celebration of music, cultural art, uh, and history. Personally, I love, love, love, love this event. I think it's a community blending, bonding event. It's great for our whole entire community, for everybody to attend, no matter what age bracket you are. It's a family event and the jazz is off the chain. I love the fact that the vendors are here. There's a lot to purchase if you'd like. The flow is absolutely exceptional. A good friend of mine had went last year, so he told me that this was really nice, so I wanted to go. Plus, I'm celebrating my 74th birthday. So I couldn't think of better place than come and see some good jazz around good people and having a great time. The best thing about this festival is the history behind it. The history of the Dunbar Hotel and how this event is keeping the black culture alive. Central Avenue was the heartbeat of the African-American community for many, many years. If you want to know the history of LA, you gotta know Central Avenue. Many people always reference South Central LA. Well, South Central really doesn't exist. It was always Central Avenue. Commerce, uh social activity, political awareness uh from the 30s all the way up until the late 70s, Central Avenue was our hub. There was really the heartbeat of the African American community. And so this is a way for us to celebrate that, to remember that, uh, but also to look at the future and to realize that we've got a lot to work together on. I like the city, everything's such a vibe. Welcome to the Latino Carnival. I'm calm and current prices. It's my honor to welcome your music. Give yourselves in. So it's a great way to celebrate here in the District Nine. We're celebrating the history, the legacy of the Latino community. And we've got music, we've got art, we've got games, something for all ages, and we're having a good time today. We just had Bia La Mera Mera with their video ramen, so fire. The food is good, Mexican food. You know, like Salvadoria food, and it's nice.
