(The Center Square) โ Six months after the devastating Palisades and Eaton fires, California Gov. Gavin Newsom unveiled $101 million in funding Tuesday for โmultifamily low-income housing developmentโ that will โcontribute to a more equitable and resilient Los Angeles." The priority is for โgeographic proximity to the fire perimeters of the Eaton, Hughes, and Palisades fires.โ
Earlier this year, The Center Square broke news that California state law and a local Los Angeles ordinance require fire-destroyed rent-protected housing โ which includes all apartments in the city built before October 1978 โ be replaced with low-income housing. Because the affordability requirements use county-level income data, not more local incomes, definitions for โlowโ and โvery lowโ income housing reflect much lower incomes than the norm for the affluent Palisades community. ..
