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.

Which is the whole reason for this debacle.

There was no other way to get rid of the single family homes.

Well, there goes the neighborhood and the property values. No one wants to live in a crime infested area, and that's what these low income housing zones always become.

Secure your elections before it’s too late.

Oh, it's already too late. We'll never get democrats out of power now that they've rigged the game for themselves.
