Council President Herb Wesson says 'anti-displacement zones' would cover the entire city of Los Angeles, but how they would work is far from clear.
saying the city should go further by establishing “anti-displacement zones” around certain market-rate housing developments.sent Tuesday to the South Los Angeles Area Planning Commission, Wesson said the six-story, market-rate project known as District Square would result in higher rents for the area’s low-income households, displacing “lifelong community residents.
How an anti-displacement zone would work, and how long it would take to craft such a measure, is far from clear. Wesson spokesman Ed Johnson said the proposal would “in all likelihood” cover the entire city, but that his boss first wants to consult his colleagues. Johnson said Wesson is still trying to determine what projects would trigger the creation of such zones.
Planning department officials said they don’t expect District Square to cause any “direct” displacement, since it is planned on an empty lot. Meanwhile, other residents have complained to the city that the project, planned at Crenshaw and Obama boulevards, is twice as big as the one pitched to the community a decade ago.
Leonora Camner, managing director of the pro-housing group Abundant Housing LA, said she supports his push for more affordable units inside District Square and is interested in learning more on Wesson’s anti-displacement efforts. Nevertheless, she said her organization disagrees with Wesson’s statement that South L.A. has “no need” for hundreds of new market-rate homes.
