Beverly Hills Adapts to New Reality of COVID-19 Pandemic BY L AUR A COLEMAN

Beverly Hills Market Carries On During the Crisis 8

REGISTER TO RECEIVE

With a reported 1,216 cases of COVID-19 in L.A. County as of March 26, including 13 in Beverly Hills, and an anticipated peak date still weeks away, experts predict the outbreak will continue to grow exponentially across the nation before beginning to taper off. Worldwide, over 23,700 people – 1,200 in the United States – have died as a result of the pandemic.

“It’s critical that everyone practices social distancing,” said L.A. County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer. “The actions you take today to stay six feet away from others and limit all nonessential activities outside your home are the best way for us to slow the spread of COVID-19 and save lives.” Beverly Hills’ tight-knit community of 35,000 residents will spend the coming

months weathering a new reality unlike anything over the past 100 years. Last week the City ordered the closure of all non-essential retail stores to the public, with the exception of drug stores, pharmacies, grocery stores and restaurants for delivery or take-out. Like all streets throughout the business triangle, Rodeo Drive is now mostly devoid of pedestrian traffic, all pricey retail stores closed until further notice. Police Chief Sandra Spagnoli told the Courier that the Beverly Hills Police Department (BHPD) has a solid plan in place to continue protecting the community, while also preparing for the unknowns of the future. BHPD is also actively working with the business community to make sure businesses follow best practices in crime prevention, such as removing items from shop windows. “Our priority is safety in the community. And we vet through all the intelligence and plan for any potential threats. From an overall safety perspective, we feel that primarily the priority is for citizens to remain at home to reduce the spread of the virus,” she said. For Beverly Hills residents, many of whom are above the age at which people are strongly advised by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to observe at-risk protocol and self-isolate, ensuring good health has never been more critical.

Rodeo Drive storefronts Photo by Bianca Heyward The sight of world-famous streets virtually abandoned, shops boarded up and storefronts sitting empty in Beverly Hills seemed unimaginable only a short time ago. But now, it is the new reality the City faces as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Businesses across the City are completely shut down or functioning at reduced capacity. But the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce is operating at full speed, albeit with staff working remotely. The Chamber’s President and CEO Todd Johnson is wasting no time in seeking relief for the business community. On March 21, Johnson sent a letter to Beverly Hills Mayor John Mirisch, as well as to the members of the City Council. The letter requested a broad-ranging list of forbearances for local businesses, in light of present circumstances. Johnson wrote:“We have numerous reports of layoffs and businesses that are down to zero revenue." (Chamber continues on page 10)

Dear Community Member: The Beverly Hills Police Department is focused on keeping the City safe while addressing issues related to COVID-19. The Police Department will continue to monitor the public safety issues impacting Beverly Hills and the surrounding region. We understand the community concerns related to safety and have taken proactive measures during this time to keep Beverly Hills safe. As such, we are implementing new procedures to keep you safe and we have taken steps to maintain the health of police employees, and limit the exposure to officers. We have increased high visibility patrol and modified how we handle non-emergency calls for service. The Police Department will maintain our less than 3 minute response time to crimes in progress and life threatening emergencies. You can contact us immediately by calling or texting 9-1-1. I have outlined our Operating Procedures during the COVID-19 response below. Non-Emergency Calls for Service: We have expanded our online police reporting to include a variety of reports such as, Lost Property, Vandalism, Vandalism to Vehicle, Harassing Phone Calls, Thefts and Report Supplements. In addition, we will be accepting telephone reports on our non-emergency line at 310-550-4951. Front Lobby Access: The front lobby of the Police Department has been closed to the public, but we have staff available 24/7 to respond to visitors to guide them with their concerns. Police/Fire Communications Center Screening: We have updated our screening questions related to medical calls and police calls for service. Crime Statistics and Crime Mapping: To follow police activity or for the most current information on crime, visit the Police Department’s smartphone app or our webpage on the City’s website at www.beverlyhills.org/police. Parking Enforcement Exemption: On March 16, 2020, City Council approved residents to request a 30-day temporary permit for residential zones with time limits and preferential parking zones. Street sweeping regulations will be relaxed, but we kindly request you still follow posted signs to help keep our streets clean. Contact us at 310-285-2196 for temporary residential permits and be prepared to demonstrate proof of residency. In the commercial district, the City will accommodate parking in front of restaurants to allow for easier access for ‘to-go’ dining. If you have questions about a citation or exemptions, contact us at 310-285-2196 Monday- Friday 7:00am - 5:00 pm. Safer at Home Order: On March 19, 2020, the County of Los Angeles and the State of California issued a “Safer at Home” Health Order. The City of Beverly Hills issued similar orders. This Order prohibits all public and private gatherings anywhere within the Los Angeles County Public Health Jurisdiction. Officers encountering groups or gatherings prohibited by the Health Order will provide public education and warnings. These orders are intended to protect public health and we encourage residents to voluntarily comply to reduce public exposure to the community and your First Responders. These temporary changes to service are necessary to maintain safety and security in Beverly Hills. We appreciate your cooperation during this time as our goal is to maintain the health of the police employees who keep you safe. On behalf of the men and women of the Beverly Hills Police Department, thank you in advance for your continued support. You may contact me personally at sspagnoli@beverlyhills.org or 310-285-2111.

News Beverly Hills Ramps Up Efforts to Beverly Hills City Council Help Most Vulnerable Set to Meet on Tuesday BY L AUR A COLEMAN

While the majority of Beverly Hills residents may be aware of the potential ramifications of COVID-19, many of the City’s most vulnerable remain in the dark. In an effort to preserve human life, the City’s Human Services division is providing vital services to at-risk residents by directly calling them on the phone, working with various partners and urging those who need help or know of those who do to contact the department. In addition to helping support the City’s elderly population, the Human Services division is also assisting those with special needs, low income residents, and those who are disabled or homeless. Of paramount importance is encouraging all residents to follow the Safer at Home directive, said Human Services Administrator James Latta. “We’re finding that a lot of our seniors really just don’t get the Safer at Home mandate,” Latta told the Courier. “That’s a struggle.” Many seniors in the City don’t understand the urgency of staying at home, with many continuing to go out shopping. Latta characterized the special senior shopping hours at markets as a “confusing message.”

“It’s really a deadly issue,” he said. “If you get this virus and you’re at risk, you’re really in trouble.” With a sizable percentage of Beverly Hills residents susceptible to complications related to COVID-19, the Human Services division is urging them to contact the department to speak with a social worker at 310-285-1078 or email humanservices@beverlyhills.org. Someone is available to speak from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. From helping people control their problems with anxiety to facilitating access to food, medication and other services (which can be a real challenge for those who don’t use the Internet) the City’s Human Services department is working to positively impact as many lives as possible. Latta told the Courier that the City has been in contact with Menorah Housing to ensure that the residents at 225 N. Crescent Dr. are safe and practicing social distancing across its 150 units. In addition, the department is continuing to work closely with Jewish Family Service ( JFS) for seniors who need immediate assistance. (Ramping Up continues on page 11)

The next formal meeting of the Beverly Hills City Council is set to be livestreamed on the City's webiste on March 31 at 2:30 p.m. In addition to measures relating to the COVID19 pandemic, Mayor John Mirisch tells the Courier he has asked for five specific items to be placed on the agenda, including a temporary moratorium of Ellis Act evictions. In addition to allowing the Council to approve expenditures so that staff is able to pay bills, Mirisch said the Council would likely discuss shutting down Wilshire Boulevard for a period of time in order to allow Metro to expedite construction on the Purple Line extension.

Possible relief for the City's critical hotel businesses may also be a topic of discussion. The Courier has learned that a letter was sent to the Mayor and City Council on March 25 by the Beverly Hills Conference & Visitors Bureau. The letter, on behalf of City hotels, asks for "urgent relief with regards to the Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) and business tax on room revenues." "We aren't asking for a waiver, but simply a deferment of the taxes until the hotels can get healthy again," BHCVB Chairman Eliot Finkel told the Courier. "We expect we'll have a sympathetic audience at the Council meeting."

Dear Readers, During these challenging times, we stand together with all of our fellow business owners and residents. In order to best serve our community, we will be sending out online News Alerts from the Beverly Hills Courier. Register now at NewsAlerts@BHCourier.com.

Community Beverly Hills Market & Deli Carries On During the Crisis BY ANA FIGUEROA

Shawn Saeedian never envisioned that he would be at the frontlines of a war when he bought a local market some 30 years ago. But that is precisely the situation he finds himself in today. The proprietor of Beverly Hills Market & Deli is adapting to the difficult conditions wrought by COVID-19, but remains steadfastly open for business. “It’s a new thing for all of us, and we’re trying to keep up. I think people are panicking more than what they need to do. There’s a lot of product available. But we need more time than usual to bring it in,” Saeedian told the Courier. The only independently owned market in Beverly Hills is located at 303 N. Crescent Dr. Current hours of operation are 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. “From seven to eight in the morning, we are open for our seniors and people who have challenges. We’ve had to adjust to the shorter hours (they were previously open until 9 p.m.) because we’re working so much harder to catch up,” said Saeedian. By “catching up,” Saeedian means a literal scramble to find inventory for his store. His usual supply channels are not always consistent of late. He suspects they may be prioritizing deliveries to large grocery chains.

PAGE 8

As a result, there are some empty shelves at the Beverly Hills Market. But, Saeedian and his wife Angela are putting in 13-hour days to stay in business. “We may not have the same merchandise that we usually carry. I am calling as many different sources as I can. We are driving around, picking things up and putting them on the shelves. Right now, a lot of people want lentils and rice, which can be hard to find. We’ve gone to restaurant supply houses and bought things in bulk. We’re repackaging it ourselves,” said Saeedian. He has also become a social media marketer, posting photos of newly arrived products on Facebook and Instagram. “People are sharing my posts with each other, which is great,” said Saeedian. Despite the increased workload, Saeedian has not raised any of his prices. In fact, some items are lower than usual. Eggs, for example, he is sourcing from restaurant supply houses and selling them in packages of 30 for $9.99, as opposed to $4.99 per dozen, pre-virus. The Beverly Hills Market has always been an extended family affair. In addition to Angela, his sister Janet and dad (who has since passed away) have helped with the business.

Beverly Hills Market & Deli is open for business His employees are also part of the family. Saeedian has not laid off a single one. “Our kitchen closed, so we added the kitchen people to the grocery staff. They need to support their families, so they are helping to stock the shelves. We constantly have guys cleaning up the store,” said Saeedian. All employees are wearing gloves and masks. Saeedian encourages customers venturing to the market in person to do the same. Aside from the dry cleaner next door, Saeedian sees very few other business owners these days. That’s tough for someone known for his community involvement. “When I ran out of product, I could have walked away. But Beverly Hills has been

supporting me for years and now, I want to repay the City. I’m blessed to be in a position where I can do it. We’ve gone through earthquakes, some riots. But nothing ever like this. It is an unknown, but we will be here through it all,” said Saeedian. In return, he asks only this: “I want everyone to be nice to each other. Acknowledge those that are still out there working. In any business you visit, thank the people who are jeopardizing their own health. Ask for their name, introduce yourself. There are times when my employees aren’t taking lunch breaks. Let’s remember we are all in this together.”

MARCH 27, 2020

(Staffer's Story continued from page 1) I used the sleeve of my sweatshirt to open the door and proceeded to check-in with one of the nurses at the reception window. I pumped some Purell on my hands as the nurse handed me a disposable face mask. She asked me to put it on right away, and then asked the reason for my visit. “I’m not feeling well,” I quietly told her. I was afraid that the six other patients in the waiting room, also wearing masks, would hear me. I thought they might stampede out if they heard me utter the reason I was there: fear that I had contracted the Coronavirus. The weekend before, I stood as a bridesmaid at my friend’s wedding that was attended by roughly 900 guests. In the Halcyon days of early March, I thought that the few elbow bumps I was getting instead of hugs and kisses were a bit overly precautious. Meanwhile, my friends and I were sharing lip gloss and trying each other’s cocktails without thinking twice. But soon, news alerts began appearing on people’s smartphones. The Italian government had imposed a lockdown after nearly 6,000 people tested positive for the virus. They reported 233 dead, an alarming jump from the 49 reported the day before. However, no one let that dire news dominate our conversation or happiness for the pending nuptials. The virus was 6,000 miles away, or so we all thought. My friends exchanged vows in a floral-filled fairytale setting. Afterwards, the reception dance floor was packed, as we danced, laughed and put our arms around one another for the Hora. The term “social distancing” had yet to enter our lexicon. I could not imagine that, until further notice, this would be the last time I would embrace family and friends. None of us predicted the dystopia that, today, is our new normal. Driving back to Los Angeles on Sunday, I learned that a large group had flown in for the wedding from northern Italy, the epicenter of that nation’s Coronavirus crisis. I didn’t know the family and wasn’t sure if I had come into contact with anyone from their group. However, it was certainly possible, as we were all staying at the same resort. Rumors soon began to circulate that at least one of the Italians had tested positive for the virus and was in isolation. Then another. That Monday, as fear of an unknown enemy began to spread, all writers at my office were instructed to work remotely. On Tuesday, we went into the office in shifts. On Wednesday, we were back working together, clinging to a normalcy that no longer exists. Another reporter told me that I did not look well, and they were right: I was starting to feel sick. I confided to my editor about the rumors regarding the other wedding

attendees. I was sent home, while my nervous officemates assiduously wiped down everything I had been in contact with. Walking to the parking garage, I began to feel faint and didn’t know if I would make it to my car. I took a cough drop for my sore throat. I made it home, laid on the couch and wrapped myself in blankets in silence for hours. I was in and out of sleep, I felt hazy and was sweating, but too cold to take off layers. My breath was hot. I called my brother, my confidant, and nervously shared my symptoms. “Please, please don’t tell mom and dad,” I said. I didn’t want my parents to worry. He urged me to go to the hospital. “No, that’s crazy,” I replied. “I just really don’t feel well.” My brother had also attended the wedding. He knew the possible risk of exposure. “That’s exactly why you should go now, tonight, just to be safe,” he said. “If you wait, it will be more crowded, and we have to make sure because you saw mom and dad a few days ago.” The thought of me compromising the health of my parents was one I couldn’t even process. I stayed home and got some sleep instead. I did manage to take my temperature, and discovered I had a fever of 99 degrees. I was physically isolated, and emotionally alone, unavailable. The thought that I could be infected with the virus — inadvertently exposing family members, friends, plus the entire Courier staff — began to sink in. I managed to text my editor to tell her that I had a fever. I also told her that the reportedly infected family from the wedding had come from Italy. The following day, my editor called me at home and insisted that I go to Cedars to be tested. A few hours later, I found myself handing the nurse at urgent care my health insurance card and a $30 co-pay. I learned that if I didn’t have insurance, I could have been charged up to $900 for the visit. This was despite the fact that President Trump had assured Americans the night before that no one would have to bear the cost of the test out of their own pocket. Once I was called into an examination room, the nurse took my vitals and asked me why I was there. My words were muffled through the face mask. When she left, I slumped down and lay on my side, crinkling the thin paper shielding the exam table. My body had difficulty remaining upright. I sat up when another nurse came, asked me similar questions, examined me and left. I laid down shivering, curling up into a ball for warmth. I desperately wanted to go home. After some time passed, a doctor came in and asked, “What brings you in today?” I felt like I was being interrogated; I had repeated myself so many times: chills, body aches, sore throat, shortness of breath, slight fever, malaise,

(New Reality continued from page 1) As of Thursday, 253 people had been hospitalized for COVID-19 in L.A. County. According to Beverly Hills spokesperson Keith Sterling, the City is not aware of any cases of COVID-19 among City employees, including police officers and firefighters. While HIPAA laws prohibit the Beverly Hills Fire Department from sharing the number of COVID19 related calls coming in, EMS Coordinator Sean Stokes confirmed that the department had “been on many calls that have been potential cases.” “The highest priority of the Beverly Hills Fire Department is the health and safety of the community,” Fire Chief Greg Barton told the Courier. “This is an unprecedented and fluid situation. However, the Beverly Hills Fire Department will always continue to provide the highest level of service to the community it serves.” Barton said that BHFD has 27 firefighters on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week. To limit exposure to the virus, he said the department has implemented stringent measures,

including screening each employee before he or she is allowed to come into the station. In addition, responders wear personal protective equipment on all calls to limit exposure to the virus. Spagnoli said BHPD is currently “gently enforcing” the Safer at Home mandate in an effort to obtain voluntary compliance. In addition to increasing BHPD visibility in the residential community and the business district, Spagnoli said the department has instituted best practices, including social distancing, in order to keep the community safe as well as ensure that officers and civilian staff stay healthy. “As a department we’re standing with our community during this time. We’re committed to keeping them safe and having high visibility in the community,” she said. “We’re here, 24/7 we’re available. And remember in Beverly Hills we get there in less than three minutes, and nothing changes with our response time.” As developments with the Novel Coronavirus continue to evolve, residents can visit www.beverlyhills. org/novelcoronavirus for the latest information.

exhaustion. She asked me questions regarding the wedding, listened to my lungs, shined a light into my eyes, and looked at my tonsils. She tested me for the flu and I waited for about 30 minutes for results. The doctor returned to tell me that the flu test came back negative. She was hesitant to test me for the Coronavirus. But, because I was showing symptoms and had possibly been exposed to carriers, she acceded. The fact that I had also traveled across the country two weekends before the wedding and traveled out of the country one weekend before, undoubtedly influenced her decision. I was scared. If the doctor wants to test me, do I actually, maybe, have it? I am a healthy 27-year-old, with no pre-existing conditions. Had I come in one day earlier, the doctor said she would not have given me the test. I am not sure what changed regarding the CDC guidelines that now made me “eligible,” but when it came to the Coronavirus, things were changing at breakneck speeds. The test lasted no more than 10 seconds. A nurse inserted a cotton swab high up my nostril and it felt like she was probing inside my nose with a stick. My eyes teared up and I contorted my face trying to manage

the discomfort. But it was relatively painless and was over quick. I left the urgent care and was told I’d get results in a few days. In the meantime, I was under strict instructions to self-quarantine. The Courier staff went into work-from-home mode, all anxiously awaiting my test result. I felt like a pariah, ostracized from my community. I was too sick to leave my bed for the next couple days and didn’t dare leave my apartment to even check the mail. My voicemail was full, and my phone was inundated with missed calls and unanswered text messages. When the doctor called me 72 hours later, my heart raced, and my hands trembled. The relief I felt upon learning the test came back negative was enormous. I immediately told my editor, my brother, and my parents. A few days later, a nurse from the urgent care called me again to check in. She asked me how I was feeling. She also said that because the tests aren’t always 100 percent accurate, I should continue to self-quarantine for another 14 days. I’m now feeling perfectly healthy, and eager to get back to work reporting on the front lines of this crisis. Unfortunately, for now, I’ve got to do it from home.

(Chamber continued from page 1) As this continues, business owners and employees will find themselves in increasingly desperate circumstances and we have received increasing inquiries about what can be done to help. It is imperative that we support our businesses, which it is estimated provide upwards of 70 percent of General Fund revenue.” Johnson went on to request the temporary suspension, elimination or refund of a number of fees impacting local businesses. Those fees include licenses and building permits; the City’s portion of sales and property taxes; water and trash fees and more. Additionally, Johnson asked City officials to consider implementing a City financed loan or grant program for small businesses, similar to the one announced by the city of Los Angeles. Other suggestions included the creation of a business toolkit package, and the relaxation of rules regarding signage and temporary pop-ups. The broad list of recommendations to the City was meant to get the conversation started, Johnson told the Courier. He has received positive feedback thus far from the Mayor and individual members of the City Council to whom he has reached out. “I’ve seen an openness to discussing these proposals. I believe that they are going to do what they can do to help our businesses. This has been a real kick in the gut. Everyone’s trying to catch their breath,” said Johnson. Johnson has heard that some hotels are keeping workers on staff. Many other businesses are maintaining employee health

benefits, even though they may no longer be paying salaries. “The reality is that none of us will be going back for several weeks. Certain essential businesses are open, such as grocery stores, the Rite Aid and gas stations. Restaurants are trying to stay open for takeout and delivery. We have a restaurant list that we are constantly updating,” Johnson said. On March 25, the Chamber sponsored a webinar that discussed resources and assistance available to businesses affected by COVID-19. It covered Economic Injury Disaster Loans and other programs from the Small Business Administration, as well as federal, state and local resources. Chamber staff (they remain on payroll) have been reaching out to the organization’s 750 members to see how they are faring. At this point, the future business landscape of the City is definitely still in flux. Johnson noted: “It depends on how long this situation lasts. I think there is a strong possibility that some businesses won’t reopen. The large ones with corporate monies probably will. But, the mom and pop shops, I don’t know what they’re going to do.” Still, he feels there is room for optimism. “Coronavirus is stretching everyone. But I truly believe we will come out of this better than before. We have to keep the faith and not get caught up with the craziness of it. If everyone were to simply practice the Golden Rule by taking care of themselves and each other, everything else should eventually be okay,” he added.

(Ramping Up continued from page 4) The City is also working with Roxbury Community Center, Beverly Hills Meals on Wheels and JFS to deliver food to approximately 70 seniors isolated at home. In the past week, Los Angeles County has taken over a multitude of recreation centers at local parks and converted them into pop-up shelters with beds spaced six feet apart, police presence and even a nurse on site. Nearby there are shelters at the recreation centers in Cheviot Hills, Westwood and Pan Pacific parks. In line with the County’s effort to help bring the homeless population (an estimated 60,000-plus people) off the streets in order to curb the spread of COVID-19, Latta said that Beverly Hills is likewise encouraging homeless people to take advantage of these shelters. “We’re trying to do our best as a division

and as a City to help encourage our homeless population to get into these shelters,” Clinical Program Coordinator Rachel Evans told the Courier. The City is actively looking for volunteers to help serve Beverly Hills’ most vulnerable communities, whether it be by reading to people over the phone, so they feel less isolated or going shopping for groceries. Those looking to help others in ways beyond Beverly Hills’ local effort are also encouraged to donate blood through the American Red Cross (www.redcrossblood. org) or connect with Project Angel Food, an organization that prepares and delivers meals to chronically ill and immunosuppressed individuals in need, by contacting volunteers@angelfood.org or calling 323845-1816.

Schools are closed, but the Beverly Hills Unified School District is still distributing free lunches to the nearly 600 students who qualify for them. Volunteers are handing them out on a "drive-thru" basis at Horace Mann Elementary School. Photo courtesy BHUSD
