洛杉矶县监事会公布11月17日例会议程:戒瘾住所监管与MLK医疗园区农贸市集两项动议将审议

洛杉矶县监事会执行办公室发布11月17日例会议程通知:例会将于11月17日(周二)上午9时30分在位于洛杉矶市中心的 Kenneth Hahn 行政大楼381B室举行。本次议程中,第三区监事 Lindsey P. Horvath 与第二区监事 Holly J. Mitchell 分别提出动议,涉及非临床戒瘾住所监管与 Martin Luther King Jr. 医疗园区的新鲜食品供应。
Horvath 的动议要求县法律顾问会同公共卫生局物质滥用防治部门、地方检察官办公室、消费者与商业事务局、区域规划局、公共工程局、消防局与警局等部门,并征询社区持份者意见,在120天内向监事会书面回报一套按风险分级的协调方案,处理非临床戒瘾住所涉嫌违法经营的问题,内容包括投诉系统的改进、县方转介的统一保障措施与执法标准分析。动议指出,这类俗称「清醒居住之家」的住所只提供无酒无毒的住宿与同伴支持、不提供治疗等临床服务时,不受加州卫生保健服务局发牌监管,形成监管空白,过去曾出现向保险公司与 Medi-Cal 虚报未提供服务费用等乱象。
Mitchell 的动议援引县公共卫生局数据指出,第六服务规划区有40.7%的居民住在食物不安全的家庭,成人糖尿病确诊率16.7%为全县最高,近三分之一居民不住在超市或杂货店附近。非营利机构 SEE-LA 以 Food Access LA 名义,自2017年起在 Martin Luther King Jr. 医疗园区运营 Watts Willowbrook 农贸市集,接受 CalFresh 与 WIC 福利。动议提出:认定向 SEE-LA 授予免费许可协议属《加州环境质量法》类别豁免,豁免每个市集日200美元的日间使用许可费(许可期内每年最多55个市集日),并授权县行政长官在60天内与 SEE-LA 签订为期两年的免费许可协议,让市集继续在园区运营。

LA County Board to Weigh Recovery Residence Oversight and MLK Farmers Market Motions on November 17
The Executive Office of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has issued the agenda notice for the Board's regular meeting on Tuesday, November 17, at 9:30 a.m. in Room 381B of the Kenneth Hahn Hall of Administration in downtown Los Angeles. Among the items are two motions, by Third District Supervisor Lindsey P. Horvath and Second District Supervisor Holly J. Mitchell, addressing oversight of non-clinical recovery residences and fresh food access at the Martin Luther King Jr. Medical Campus.
Horvath's motion would direct County Counsel, in consultation with the Department of Public Health's Substance Abuse Prevention and Control division, the District Attorney, the Department of Consumer and Business Affairs, Regional Planning, Public Works, the Fire Department, the Sheriff's Department and other departments, along with community stakeholders, to report back in writing within 120 days with a coordinated, risk-based protocol for addressing alleged unlawful conduct by non-clinical recovery residences, covering complaint systems, safeguards for county referrals and enforcement standards. The motion notes that recovery residences, commonly known as sober-living homes, are not licensed or routinely investigated by the California Department of Health Care Services when they operate solely as housing without clinical services, creating an oversight gap that has historically been exploited through practices such as billing insurers or Medi-Cal for services that were not provided.
Mitchell's motion cites county public health data showing that 40.7 percent of residents in Service Planning Area 6 live in food-insecure households, that the area's diagnosed adult diabetes rate of 16.7 percent is the highest in the county, and that nearly one in three residents does not live near a supermarket or grocery store. The nonprofit SEE-LA, doing business as Food Access LA, has operated the Watts Willowbrook Farmers' Market at the MLK Medical Campus since 2017, accepting CalFresh and WIC. The motion would find the gratis license agreement categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, waive the $200-per-market-day day-use permit fee for up to 55 market days per year during the license term, and delegate authority to the Chief Executive Officer to negotiate and execute a two-year gratis license agreement with SEE-LA within 60 days.
Residents can watch the meeting through the Live Board Meeting page on the Board's website, call in to address the Board, or submit written public comment. The Executive Office of the Board is at 500 W. Temple St, Los Angeles, and can be reached at (213) 974-1411.
