Thank you for the warm welcome to Presidency of the UCNH Chamber of Commerce. Your caring and supportive words throughout January have confirmed for me that taking on this role was a perfect decision.
The tagline of the Chamber is "Where Business and Community Thrive". Over the past 30 days, I can certainly attest that this statement could be no truer than it is today. We have seen our membership numbers steadily increase. I would like to thank the businesses that joined the Chamber in the past month. These are businesses that are for the first time learning how valuable the Chamber can be to their success in our community.
We look forward to working with each new member and renewing members to make North Hollywood/Universal City the best that it can be. I want to personally thank Best Friends Animal Hospital, David Benson Consulting, Laemmle NoHo 7, and METAL Law Group for working with me in the past 30 days. Also, I want to welcome Le Petit Chateau back to our group after so many years of support. To those I did not mention, I am looking forward to working with you in 2012 and to hearing all of your celebrations and concerns that affect your business and our community.

Illegal Immigrant Drivers at Sobriety Checkpoints
The Universal City North Hollywood Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors at its January Board meeting took up Los Angeles Police Charlie Beck’s policy about not towing illegal immigrant driver’s cars when stopped at sobriety checkpoints. The Chamber represents 158 members and almost 12,000 employees.
Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck has announced that his officers will no longer automatically tow the cars of illegal immigrant drivers stopped at sobriety checkpoints. The policy comes in response to the concerns of Latino civil rights activists who say the impound fees are unfairly costing otherwise hardworking illegal immigrant drivers hundreds of dollars.
Also, unlicensed U.S. Citizens and legal residents stopped at checkpoints will also be allowed “reasonable time” to find someone else to drive their car home.
Being concerned over possibly dangerous reasons for drivers not being licensed, safety of the public and concern for equality of treatment, the Universal City North Hollywood Chamber of Commerce recommends that driving without a license is adequately punished by the law.
Modify Statistically, Sadistically Punitive Penalties on Rent Controlled Apartment Buildings
The Los Angeles County Tax Assessor’s Office charges approximately 10.5% to approximately 11% penalty for property tax paid just one day late. The City of Los Angeles Office of Finance assesses a 5% penalty for business taxes paid just one day late, and up to 40% if paid during the fifth month after the due date. The City of Los Angeles prohibits apartment owners from charging a late charge of any more than 6% for rent paid late.
