Al Fresco Ordinance Update – PLUM Committee Meeting on December 5, 2023
In June of 2023, the Planning and Land Use Management (PLUM) Committee provided amendments and instructions to include additional standards, allowances, and enforcement measures on the Al Fresco Ordinance. In light of that, City Planning has prepared a supplemental report which outlines those additional regulatory requirements as well as a recommendation for an alternative ordinance that seeks to streamline regulations for most operators as they transition from the temporary Al Fresco authorizations on private property.
At their November 7 meeting, the PLUM Committee continued the Al Fresco Ordinance and provided additional instructions to report back on certain standards, accessible parking, and contact information for complaints and concerns. City Planning has prepared a new report with recommendations, and the Al Fresco Ordinance is scheduled to be heard on December 5. The PLUM Committee meeting agenda and live broadcast will be accessible online at clerk.lacity.org/calendar.
We invite you to continue sharing your thoughts on the Al Fresco Ordinance with the PLUM Committee by submitting written comments online at LACouncilComment.com. Public testimony will also be heard during the general public comment portion of the meeting in-person only; there will be no public comment accepted by teleconference during the meeting.
