A lovely multi-family home in a great location, and a rare instance of wartime development in 90031. Thanks to policy work by Kevin de Leon's team that went largely unreported, no RSO unit in Boyle Heights can be demolished or tenants evicted until there's a community plan in place to ensure protections--and Ysabel Yurado just extended that policy. Why should the neighboring community lose desperately needed attractive housing for nothing? That roof alone!
I’ve already emailed Ysabel’s office to ask how the owner was even allowed to apply for demolition, since this isn’t supposed to happen. Hopefully I get a real response and not just the excuses/word salad that I’ve come to expect from other council members *cough* Eunisses *cough*

Keep us posted!
Ysabel’s response will be shared publicly. And if there is no response within a reasonable time frame, expect my usual roasting.
