LA law requires that Pacific Palisades rebuilding after fires must include low-income housing

Housing and land use experts say a Los Angeles city law could require the Pacific Palisades to include “affordable” housing to replace older buildings.

Housing and land use experts say a Los Angeles city law could require the Pacific Palisades to include “affordable” housing to replace older buildings, and for new buildings where owners cannot definitively prove that their rental apartments had no low-income renters in the past five years.

The new Resident Protections Ordinance taking effect soon requires that “In Higher Opportunity Areas and Moderate Opportunity Areas, units deemed or presumed to be occupied by persons or families above the lower income category shall be replaced with low income units.” The RPO applies to units “subject to a form of rent or price control through a local government’s valid exercise of its police power.”

In the city of Los Angeles, which includes the Pacific Palisades — a “High Opportunity Area" — all apartment buildings built before October 1978 are subject to the city’s rent control ordinance, which means all units in such buildings would need to be replaced with units “affordable” to lower-income renters even if the existing tenants were high income.

For buildings after October 1978, owners must be able to prove that in the last five years before the fire that the tenants were all higher income, or the city will automatically apply “the percentage of Extremely Low Income, Very Low Income and Low Income Households in the same proportion as their share of all renter households within the City of Los Angeles,” which would result in requiring proportional replacement with extremely low, very low, and low income housing if owners do not have complete records for the past five years.

The state will buy out these apartment owners and build all Section 8 type housing.

First question to ask is, “Who gains financially from these types of laws?”

If you move to get away from the ghetto or barrio, the city will move the ghetto or barrio to you!

There was an alderman in Chicago who tried to do this in one of his wards and went to a neighborhood meeting about it: he had to flee for his life, and actually lost re-election.

Are the Pacific Palisades part of Los Angeles proper?
Or is the communist LA Mayor over-reaching and trying to
steal peoples land?

I feel terrible for the people who lost their homes in what must have seemed like paradise. I would feel even worse for them except I’m sure they almost all support low income housing quotas, never believing it would be applied to them.
