Insight in how FilmLA makes decisions

In recent weeks, I been corresponding with FilmLA to get a clearer idea criteria they use for issuing filming permits. In a nutshell, I've been asking them about three topics:

• What is a moratorium? (prompted by a posting by our neighbor Ed) 
• What happens when FilmLA issues a permit in error (prompted by a violation of a Special Filming Condition) 
• How does FilmLA determine if a neighborhood is overused. (prompted by a request to suspend filming on Homewood because FilmLA issues an filming permit in error) 

If I understand correctly, the bottom line for each question might be summarized as follows: 

• A moratorium is a temporary order issued by county counsel to address a serious concern. The duration of a moratorium is seldom more than a couple of weeks. 
• If FilmLA issues a filming permit in violation of a special condition, there is no recourse or remedy; only a promise to do better. 
• FilmLA does not have objective criteria for determining neighborhood overuse. This is in contrast to the policies in neighboring communities that have their own film coordination functions.
