From defiant lawsuits to revers-ing policies, U.S. cities and countiesare zeroing in on their immigrationrules to avoid losing millions inpublic safety dollars that the WhiteHouse has threatened to withholdamid a high-stakes clash over sanc-tuary policies.
President Donald Trump hasmade it a top priority to revokefederal dollars from so-called sanc-tuary cities, broadly defined asplaces that limit cooperation withfederal immigration authorities.
Trump says he believes such citiesand counties are providing a havenfor criminal activity.
Amid an executive order andalmost weekly threats by theadministration, cities and countiesare fighting back.
At least seven cities and coun-ties are suing, and Californiabecame the first state to join thelegal fray on Monday. Leaders inBaltimore and the Las Vegas areahave been trying to prove to thefederal government that they don’thave sanctuary policies so they can

There were 33 items up for dis-cussion at the Aug. 2 PlanningCommission meeting and whilethere was plenty to talk about, noth-ing was actually up for a vote yet.
The Commission held prelimi-nary discussions on policy issues thathave arisen since adopting the ZoningOrdinance in 2015.Many of the itemspresented by Principal Planner TonyKim were minor clerical changes, butsome items spurred debate among
the Planning Commission.The commission was asked to
reconsider the limit on skylights,currently at a maximum of 12”above the roof, to be five feet. Staffsaid the recommendation camefrom the public.
Commissioner Leslie Lamberthad no problem with the update.However, Commissioner NinaFresco said she was not comfort-able with a 5 foot maximum.
“This is not downtown,” she said.Commissioner Richard Mckinnon
said 12 inches is restrictive.
“If we’re looking at energy effi-ciency, we need to go above 12inches. It could be 30 inches, I’mnot sure what the right level is butI’m open to the change,” he added.
The new skylight limit wouldapply to all buildings.
The commissioners also lookedat affordability levels for Tier 2projects. Commissioner Lambertsaid the city had overproduced atthe extremely low income levelproposed that the commission look

LOS ANGELESLos Angeles begins enforcing new parking law
Los Angeles residents used to parking their cars on the grassy strip between the curband the sidewalk will have to break the habit or risk getting a ticket.
Starting Monday the city is enforcing a new law that says it’s illegal to leave vehicleson so-called parkways or berms.
The practice has been common in densely populated neighborhoods but the CityCouncil in June decided to ban it.
Parking officers had been placing warning fliers under drivers’ windshields since July.Now they are issuing tickets.
— ASSOCIATED PRESSLOS ANGELESLA County to pay $1.5M to settle wrongful-death suit
Los Angeles County will pay $1.5 million to the family of a 21-year-old man fatally shotin his car by a sheriff’s deputy two years ago.
County supervisors approved the payment last week to settle a wrongful-death law-suit brought by the family of Nephi Arreguin.
The suit claims he was unarmed and not a threat and that Deputy Edward Fitzgeraldexcessive force on him.
Arreguin was shot while deputies responded to a report of a suspicious person inCerritos in May 2015.
Attorneys for the county said Fitzgerald opened fire after Arreguin disobeyed ordersand drove at him.
County officials declined to comment on the settlement.The Los Angeles Times reports Monday that Fitzgerald is still with the department.

WINNERAWARD WINNERAWARD WINNER
HISTORY IS WRITTEN BY THE VICTORS.But not always timely.
The Civil War ended 252 years ago, yet weare still fighting the culture war that wasunderlying it. Last week I wrote about amovie that showcased the lynching of FrankEmbree. This week the headlines are scream-ing about the white supremacists who ralliedin Charlottesville, Virginia, and the death ofa non-violent protester who was run downby some young man in a car.
The Civil war ended with the surrenderof the Confederacy, but not all hearts andminds were changed at the conclusion of the“war of Northern aggression” as many stillrefer to it. Here we are, 252 years later, andthere are still those who would gladly returnto the days of slavery.
A crowd of mostly young, mostly male,all white thugs decided to rally againstblacks, Jews and gays this weekend. Theexhibition of the Confederate flag and theNazi Flag was a painful sight for many.
We cannot, pardon the phrase, white-wash, history. It is what it is. America has toaccept its dark days of slavery and we doneed to address the wrongs that were, andstill are, perpetrated. We need to teach ouryouth far better than we have, the value ofknowing history and why wars were fought,why people died, and how to judge a per-son’s true worth by their character, not theirskin color. One they have control over, onethey don’t. It makes as much sense to judgesomeone based on their skin as their height,no one can control their height – it’s anobjective fact and not suitable for determin-ing any character traits.
I’ve written before about the youngmen at my gym who are rabid Trump sup-porters because “he wants to deal with theMuslim problem.” These young men,Jewish boys who live mere blocks from theMuseum of Tolerance see nothing wrongwith making Muslims wear badges oridentifying them in some way. My imme-diate reaction was of revulsion, contemptand dismissiveness of them. But uponreflection, I cannot blame them. They arein their 20’s, the age at which we sendyoung men to die with dreams of gloryand tales of heroism.
We take young men and gin them up into
rabid killers, precisely because they are so eas-ily motivated and brainwashed about “theenemy.” Young men will go to war based onnothing more than a good story, some tales ofperceived wrongs and the chance to act outtheir urges to fight and prove their worth. Tomake an old man willing to fight you have toreally convince him of the justness of thecause, you must get past his life experiencesand into a deeper sense of outrage.
When I look at these young men, withcocksure attitudes on what is wrong with theworld and how to fix it, I see myself at theirage, but I also look to their parents who havenot taught them well. There is no deepthinking going on, no seeing the similaritiesto the Holocaust, no understanding that reg-istries and databases, beget yellow stars andpink triangles all too easily. But then theydidn’t even know what the pink triangleswere for, I had to explain that to them.
The pictures out of Charlottesville wereshocking, painful, and made me cry. The factthat this blind hatred is still present in myAmerica is disappointing. However, there isone image that should be a Pulitzer Prizewinner. It is of the crowd of young whitemen, carrying their Swastika emblazonedflags and crude handwritten signs of anti-Semitic hate walking on the sidewalk, pro-tected by a railing while a black police officerstood facing the camera, assuring that theprotesters were safe. This is the image of atrue American. I have no idea how that offi-cer felt. There is no indication on his face ofhis thoughts, feelings and concerns, but I cansay that no matter how he felt, that day hewas more of an American, than any of theSwastika waving, Old Glory flying whiteboys, no matter how far back their familygenealogy goes.
As he stood there, defending those peo-ple’s right to state their opinion, no matterhow distasteful, he was the guardian of ourcountry. He is a true American.

at the subject in a much broader context.“We discovered with the (Downtown
Community Plan) that they have the ears ofthe council,” she said. “We should put thisover again for a more broad discussion onaffordability in general.”
Commissioner McKinnon agreed andChair Amy Anderson recommended a jointmeeting with the Housing and PlanningCommissions.
Discussion of item #18 sought to clari-fy that a nonconforming use may beallowed in a City-Designated HistoricResource, “only if the nonconforming usewas the predominant use at the site whenit was in operation.”
The concern was that the current policyleft landmarks “open to abuse.”
“We can’t tell people what use they haveto do, all we can do is tell them what use theycan’t do,” Fresco added.
The concern was with wording that takesadvantage of the way a space was originallyconstructed. If a space was originally con-structed as a movie theatre and is now in anarea where there would not be a movie the-atre it could actually incentivize having amovie theatre.
Staff said it’s a tricky balance of not want-ing to penalize people with legitimate proj-ects in historic districts but also not wantinglandmarks to be abused and converted officespaces. Ultimately, the wording is going tobe left alone, according to Principal PlannerTony Kim.
Item #25 determines whether bike parkingshould be allowed on the public right-of-wayinstead of on private property. CommissionerMcKinnon said it’s unacceptable to have bikeparking on public right of way.
“Our job is here to try and improve mul-timodal ways of transportation,” he added.
Some believed buildings need to providemore bike parking.
“I think that especially for buildingstrying to retrofit, bike parking is reallyimportant,” Commissioner Fresco said.She also added having bikes on the streetis enticing.
Removing some car parking was dis-cussed, so as to spread bike parking.Ultimately the goal is to encourage build-ings to provide bicycle parking on siteand discourage public right of way bikeparking.
“The more we spread the bike parkingthe more people see it,” CommissionerMcKinnon said, hoping for a plan for bikeparking that would increase biking in theCity where he and other Commissionerssaid there isn’t enough.
Kim also said staff is looking at increasingthe size of secondary units on a property,upon suggestion from the PlanningCommission.
The meeting also examined at which thepoint in a remodel or expansion of a singlefamily home, should the owner have tobring their parking up to code. As of now, ifthe addition is more than half the size ofthe existing house, then parking has tocome up to code. But sometimes peoplehave to widen their driveway when there isno room, and end up demolishing theirhouse entirely.
The big picture is to encourage keepingolder homes and not tearing them down tohave more room for parking. Staff is explor-ing possibly relaxing the standard at whichowners have to bring everything up to code,but it requires further discussion.
The discussion this month was designedto solicit feedback from the Commission inadvance of changes heading to the Council.Kim said he thinks the changes will bebrought to Council early next year.

qualify for public safety help. Some localgovernments have sought to comply withthe administration’s edicts.
The result for cities and counties: growingconfusion, budgeting headaches, worriesabout increased crime and more tension withimmigrant residents. And experts expect morelawsuits and turmoil at the local level.
“They’re not getting clarity,” said Yucel Ors,a program director for public safety at theNational League of Cities. “When you’re plan-ning budgets or there’s an expectation forgrants and applications, it becomes very diffi-cult to properly judge what your resource isgoing to be, especially with law enforcement.”
Sanctuary policies have existed for decades.There’s no single definition, but generally localofficials enact policies friendly to people livingin the U.S. without legal permission, includinglimiting cooperation with agents in local jailsand prohibiting police from asking aboutimmigration status during traffic stops.
The nation’s roughly 200 sanctuary citiesand counties are now a focal point in theimmigration debate with Trump in theWhite House.
Some locales, including Florida’s Miami-Dade County, have already changed theirimmigration policies to comply. Others areconsidering the same.
But the more common tactic amongsanctuary cities has been to push back.
Several lawsuits have cited constitutionalconcerns in Trump’s executive order, includ-ing three in California filed by Santa ClaraCounty, San Francisco and the city ofRichmond. Two of those lawsuits prompteda temporary injunction.
Other lawsuits were filed by Seattle andtwo Boston-area cities. On Monday, the stateof California sued over Trump’s sanctuarycity restrictions on public safety grants,building on similar federal complaints filedlast week, including in Chicago.
Chicago targeted new conditions for agrant calling for close cooperation with fed-eral authorities, including access to jails.Chicago, a sanctuary city since the 1980s,calls the changes unconstitutional.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who wasPresident Barack Obama’s first White Housechief of staff, argued Trump’s aggressivestance and rhetoric impedes trust in lawenforcement and could prevent immigrantsfrom reporting crimes.
“The Trump Justice Department ... is ask-ing the city of Chicago to choose betweenour core values as a welcoming city and ourfundamental principles of communitypolicing,” Emanuel said at a recent newsconference. “It is a false choice and a wrongchoice. Chicago will not let our police offi-cers become political pawns in a debate.”
In response, U.S. Attorney General JeffSessions doubled down on his sanctuarycities stance, accusing Chicago of “deliber-ately and intentionally” adopting rules thatobstruct the immigration system.
Nationally, the federal governmentawarded about $264 million to more than1,000 different entities last year through theEdward Byrne Memorial Justice AssistanceGrant program, also known as Byrne JAG.Chicago’s share was about $2.3 million,including for police cars. The program isnamed after a New York City officer killed in1988 while protecting an immigrant witnesswho’d agreed to testify against drug dealers.
The fight has led to chaos in cities andcounties that say they’re being inaccuratelybranded by the administration.
Roughly $1 million in Byrne JAG moneywas in limbo for Nevada’s Clark County untilthis month. The county submitted a 108-pagememo covering the role of Las Vegas police toprove it should continue to receive funds ituses for things like juvenile services.
Baltimore city officials were baffled whenthey received an August letter saying they would-n’t qualify for a different federal anti-crime pro-gram. The city hasn’t formally declared itself asanctuary city, and city jails are run by the stateof Maryland, not the city. Baltimore faces aFriday deadline to prove its case.
In New Mexico, Albuquerque received asimilar warning. Albuquerque eliminated asanctuary policy years ago, but city andcounty officials approved largely symbolic“immigrant friendly” measures this year.The federal warning appeared to targetimmigrant jail policies in Bernalillo County,where Albuquerque is located. County com-missioners debated a plan allowing morecooperation between local and federalimmigration authorities, but the Democrat-majority board defeated it last week at ameeting well-attended by opponents.
Two California cities, Stockton and SanBernardino, were also called out afterexpressing interest in the JusticeDepartment’s Public Safety Partnership,which enlists federal agents and technologyto find crime solutions. They were told theywouldn’t qualify unless they give federalimmigration authorities access to jails andnotify agents before releasing inmates want-ed on immigration violations.
Miami-Dade County reversed its policyearlier this year, saying the county wouldhonor “detainers,” or holding people for extratime to be arrested by immigration authorities.Local officials defended the change, saying theywanted to keep receiving federal money forbody cameras and community policing.However, the reversal is now the subject of anAmerican Civil Liberties Union lawsuit.
In New Mexico, concerns linger aboutpossible lost funding opportunities forAlbuquerque, which ranks first nationwidefor the number of cars stolen daily per capi-ta. Commissioner Wayne Johnson, aRepublican, said he introduced the plan toincrease cooperation with immigrationauthorities in response to Trump’s warning.
“We have a broken criminal justice sys-tem,” said Johnson, who’s running for mayor.“We need to have every tool at our disposal.”

NEW YORKAldi to offer grocery delivery service in 3 US cities
Aldi, the no-frills German grocer that’s expanding in the U.S., says it will offer grocerydelivery for the first time in three American cities by the end of the month.
The company says it has a partnership with Instacart to deliver groceries to cus-tomers in Atlanta, Dallas and Los Angeles. Shoppers will be able to order goods onInstacart’s website or app, and Instacart workers will pull the items off the shelf anddeliver them. Customers can schedule delivery for that day.
Instacart charges a delivery fee, and the company says some items may cost morethan they do in Aldi stores.
Aldi says it may expand delivery to more cities. The chain, which has about 1,700 U.S.stores, plans to have 2,500 locations by 2022.

Venus and Pluto struggle through a game of tug of war to remind us that most of the time we achieve bytrying. Trying is the bulk of the work. That’s why not trying is such an attractive quality: It only happensin the stages of mastery, when so much skill, knowledge and confidence have been acquired that trying isno longer necessary.
Venus and Pluto Tug of War
ARIES (March 21-April 19)You know what you’re best at, right? If you’restill stuck on that, here’s a hint: It’s either theopposite of what you’re worst at, or it’s thesame thing, just a different facet of it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)It’s said that happiness is a way of traveling.You certainly carry it with you today, a hum ofvitality that lends a quickness to your stride, aplayfulness to your approach.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)Beware: There are some things (and people)that are very difficult to experience in moder-ation. You have but the smallest amount andthey leave a hunger inside you for more,more, more.
CANCER (June 22-July 22)It’s so much easier for a relationship to devel-op if there’s an outside structure, such aschurch, school or work, that keeps people incontact. Alas, if you like a person enough you’llinvent reasons to get together.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)Just when you think there’s nothing new underthe sun, the cosmic DJ comes along to mix upwhat’s already there in such a wondrous wayas to make everything seem fresh.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)Think of everything you want in life as a mov-ing target. The way to reach the goal is not byaiming at it, but by aiming beyond it. Anddon’t be surprised if you need greater effort,sharper skill and more resources than firstcalculated.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)People laugh at clowns and people laugh atgeniuses. It is sometimes hard to tell the dif-ference between the two, if there is any. Somefoolishness is pure folly. Then again, folly isoften what leads to the breakthrough.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)You’ll want to make a powerful impression. Goslower. Move less. Be still. People who are stillare thought of as poised. Composure showsrestraint and confidence.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)Don’t worry so much about what you’re goingto say. Your silence, when it is full of support-ive, heroic and/or loving intent, is more desir-able than beautiful music.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)You like giving gifts. It energizes you. So it’swonderful that today you’ll be so filled with theintent of service that your work won’t feel likea job; rather, it will feel like a gift you’re giving.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)You’ve helped others and now they want torepay you. Maybe you’d prefer they didn’t.Maybe you don’t need repayment. Accept itgraciously anyway, as all will feel better whenthis giving cycle is complete.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)Before you rush to sign up and learn, consid-er going at it without training for a while. Infact, maybe you should wait as long as youcan to learn the rules. If you don’t knowwhat can or can’t be done, you’ll be creative-ly free.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 15)
The forces of felicity fall in love with your attitude and gumption. You’ll transfer the knowledge you’vegained from things that didn’t quite hit for you in the past into new ventures with a higher probabili-ty of success. See, nothing you’ve done has been a loss. Developments with family will inspire a moveor travel in 2018. Cancer and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 1, 7, 12 and 3.
