‘There is no way, with 46,000 people unhoused in our streets, that we can let up’ said Mayor Karen Bass.
L.A. Mayor Karen Bass unveiled a 62-unit apartment building for unhoused seniors, which she said is one the “fastest growing populations” of homeless residents in the city.
Bass noted that it’s critical to ramp up affordable housing development, especially for the city’s senior citizens, who have been “priced out of the housing market.” “This is an example of the kind of policy that we know works,” Soto-Martinez said. “What does not work is shuffling people from block to block, hoping that one day they’re going to get into housing.”
Rebecca Louie, president and CEO of Wakeland Housing and Development Corporation, said the project will soon welcome 62 seniors and provide them with services where they can come in, rest, heal and recover. She added that developers say their biggest challenges is the “unpredictability of the Los Angeles city’s approval process for affordable housing.” Raman reiterated the process can take up to six months or longer.
