McCosker said the patrols had been “lawfully protesting and lawfully recording the movements of cars” near the Coast Guard station, which the councilmember said is being used as a staging point for large numbers of federal agents. He said one volunteer, a U.S. citizen, was “brutally, aggressively taken down and put into a vehicle and spirited away.” McCosker added other peace patrollers were confronted with guns drawn when they sought information from the agents.

The councilmember said Port Police — who have jurisdiction over Terminal Island — have been notified and are examining the circumstances of the arrest. “Port Police…is looking into all of the circumstances of the arrest,” McCosker said. He characterized the arrest as an apparent violation of a temporary restraining order the city obtained against federal enforcement practices, and said the patrols had been effective as community witnesses.

Council President (name not specified in the record) announced the council would continue a practice begun earlier: putting on the record, at the start of each morning meeting, reports about federal enforcement actions and community concerns. No formal council motion or vote on enforcement policy was recorded during the meeting.

McCosker urged continued civic attention and litigation efforts, saying the reported conduct by federal agents “appears to be permissible all the way to the White House” and that the city will remain firm in defending residents’ rights. Port Police and other agencies were identified as the official inquiry leads; the council did not record any administrative or disciplinary action during the session.","Councilmember McCosker told the Los Angeles City Council that a Harbor Area Peace Patrol volunteer was arrested during monitoring of federal agents on Terminal Island, that other volunteers were threatened with firearms and that Port Police are investigating; members pledged to continue documenting incidents at the start of each meeting.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6481433,"LA youth council and city officials urge council to preserve Youth Development Department as consolidation is reviewed",858,5419000,6277000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5555407-6a51391412e13d9b407b25546e7d7312&start=5419&end=6277","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5555407-6a51391412e13d9b407b25546e7d7312/thumbnail_5419000.jpg","/articles/6481433/Los-Angeles-City/Los-Angeles-County/California/LA-youth-council-and-city-officials-urge-council-to-preserve-Youth-Development-Department-as-consolidation-is-reviewed","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6481433-60c9b3a07313cb89df54cb749dc5c328/orig.mp4?Expires=1771164970&Signature=AdlfS7Pzbqlsj8~I9m5FiAb95rnOexkRWHC6yaylb1l3FNc868KQ8BlfaBD-BR~-cXuIm4U0831P2uciCUen5TqDzdg47XHS7ASx2k79O9r0OntfKvh8P7cQzegSJ7ljYxZJyzjXFNe5yB3zmJNbO0PgycyIgMdojOd4eBMr7tcVQpQIaMHM~6w71WRYzcNm~Lf19Nb2aiB0Y1O~MDrpFd7cQVj2xzjrIUIQnP05ku~HXkqCYu-qn61gN2kTNvKvLxdoy3z6EilXTuDnR5HQN7iLEfX11JiiY46OibxEvRy0mllr8JREaG5KPXGCrPKmaAP5WF~mACsj2TbSWNNh4g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Councilmember Monica Rodriguez introduced members of the Olivia Mitchell Youth Council and Youth Development Department leaders during a presentation at the Aug. 8 Los Angeles City Council meeting, where youth leaders and department staff asked the council not to consolidate the Youth Development Department (YDD).

Jerry Yang, president of the LA City Youth Council, told the council the youth body had run a citywide Youth Summit and an expo this year and warned that “the youth development department is under review for consolidation,” a change he said the city’s young people “do not want.” Yang said YDD has given young people training, access to city departments and connections to college- and career-oriented programs and called on council members to “make the right choice.”

Lisa Salazar, general manager of the Youth Development Department, described the department’s work supporting cohorts of young leaders across every council district, three annual youth summits run with USC Sol Price School of Public Policy, and a new financial-literacy app developed from the council-led program. “Working with and supporting young people as they navigate their way to adulthood takes focused intentionality,” Salazar said, and praised councilmember Rodriguez for sustained advocacy.

Councilmember Rodriguez framed the request in budgetary and program terms, saying YDD’s work is an investment in the city’s future and noting an estimated figure for continued support: “for a nominal investment of just about 1 and a half million dollars, we can go ahead and continue that work,” she said. Rodriguez and multiple councilmembers, as well as USC Sol Price leaders who addressed the chamber, highlighted the department’s partnerships and the cohort-based training that places youth into neighborhood councils and other civic bodies.

USC representatives and faculty who partnered on the summits described the program as a mechanism to bring students from across the city together for policy research and civic skills training. Dr. Christopher Boone, dean of USC Sol Price School, and faculty lead Professor Levana Lewis thanked the city for its partnership and encouraged continued funding and campus engagement.

No formal vote on the YDD’s status or funding was recorded during the meeting. Councilmembers and speakers emphasized that a decision about consolidation would have to be made through the council’s budget and committee processes. The youth council members and department staff asked council offices to preserve YDD’s programs and maintain the partnerships that support student leadership development.","The Olivia Mitchell Youth Council and Youth Development Department leaders told the Los Angeles City Council that a proposed consolidation under review would threaten programs serving young Angelenos and urged continued funding; council members and partners including USC Sol Price supported the appeal.","actionData","errors"]
