Burn Oakland to the ground
In Philly they claim ignorance why the torture, abuse, murder, and conditions under Gosnell were not reported by inspectors.
It was deliberate willful neglect.
Taken to the next logical step, who was paying who not to inspect.
This is what you get when you put a swarm of STD-carrying, aimless, shiftless, narcissistic, dead-end genetic defects packed together in an urban cesspool like so many ants. I’ll stick with my acre and a quarter surrounded by hundred foot pines, and put up with the coyotes chasing the rabbits and the deer munching on my tomatoes, TYVM.
But wait a minute. What happened to all those CA regulations that should have prevented the fires? I’m sure every building in CA is smoke-free, asbestos-free, lead paint-free, pet-free, and has to have a sprinkler system powered by hamsters on wheels.
Most of these dysfunctional cities are ruled by Dems and their insider political elite cronies who thrive and get rich on government corruption and incompetence.
Privatize the inspections.
1. require fire insurance.
2. have fire department notices of a needed inspection sent to the insurer of record. if it comes back as no longer the insurer for the property, send a notice to the owner that the CO will be cancelled in x days unless the new insurer is identified. repeat until proper insurer is notified.
3. have the insurer hire private inspectors, and work with the owner to get the inspection(s) and any needed repairs done. accept the verdict(s) of those inspectors. allow insurers to cancel the insurance if the owner does not rectify a situation to their satisfaction. require the insurer to notify the city of a cancelled policy.
4. cancel the CO if there is no fire insurance.
Between the owners and the insurers the inspections will get done or the properties closed due to cancelled COs.

I’m no fan of Teresa Deloach Reed, nor the kind of filth that hired her, but this is not a city responsibility.
Its not the job of the city to make the world safe. It is the job of the land lords chiefly, but also the individual tenants.
Government is not supposed to be our Fairy Godmother.

Still making money off his tragedy that the city set up?
...........I suspect massive cash payoffs (bribes) to Fire Inspectors is the next shoe to drop.
LOL
She headed for the tall grass.
I have family in Oakland. The real reason the fire inspections aren’t being done is most of the building on the list simply would not pass an inspection. As a result, many buildings would be condemned while others would be shut down for months while expensive repairs were made. So, rather than create that huge problem among problem in an already tough housing situation, the government (Read-The Democrats)y simply inspect businesses and buildings that they know will pass inspection over and over and over again to get fees. That’s the real story.
Dont they withhold police and fire services down there when people vote tax increases down?
They are probably to busy fighting global warming to do anything that would actually save people from harm.
