Some Venice residents accuse the city of L.A. of not enforcing overnight camping prohibitions, especially with the homeless, and say it makes the city liable for multimillion dollar lawsuit payouts.
VENICE, Calif. -- A group of Venice residents says it is putting the city of Los Angeles on notice, accusing government officials of not enforcing overnight camping prohibitions, and saying it makes the city liable for multimillion dollar lawsuit payouts.
"There's almost no police presence or fire department presence down here overnight," Ryavec said."We're putting the city on notice, that, if there's loss of life, if there's a structure, they are clearly already negligent, and they already will face a huge settlement." Ryavec points to a fire from January 2021, which started in a homeless tent and quickly spread to a two-story building. It took more than a hundred firefighters to put it out, but not before the building was destroyed. The owner is suing Los Angeles.
