"This ordinance is a result of a witch hunt by extremists that want to force mom-and-pop owners out of business."
"There are tenants here today who will be evicted if this does not pass as amended."
The Los Angeles City Council has temporarily enacted an ordinance preventing landlords from evicting tenants for substantial renovations, a move aimed at protecting long-term renters from unjust evictions. This decision, which applies retroactively, is a response to concerns from tenant advocates who labeled the previous rules as loopholes for raising rents. While tenants view this as a victory, landlords argue it restricts necessary property upgrades. The ordinance serves as a temporary measure while the city seeks lasting solutions for tenant protections.
