ment area.” Filipina American Tita Tanega, a retired library assistant at University of Southern California (USC) and mobile home resident for nine years, expressed disappointment to what she called as an apparent lack of interest on the part of city officials to help the displaced residents get a fair deal. “We have not received any information as to the specific developments planned for this place,” Tanega complained. Tanega added that the mobile homeowners need help in assuring that their properties would be appraised fairly. “They might be rushing things because of the new bill, AB 2872, which intends to protect mobile home park
owners.” Another homeowner, Placida Worrell, 78, who has been living at the Park Avalon for 19 years said: “The market value that the owner is offering us is very low. We have spent many years in that home. Most of the seniors here are on fi xed income. Yet, in the middle of the COVID-19, they want us to look for another residence. That is unjust.” Carla Zanotti, Latina mobile homeowner president, added that the real estate firm needs to offer a reasonable relocation price. Zanotti said that they are hoping that the members of the City Council would make good on their promise that they would help the affected residents. The protesters said that if they don’t get help, many of
them would be forced to live in the streets. The developers had told the media several months back that their project also includes senior housing and that current residents given priority to them. “They (residents) are mostly old and retired. Some are even disabled. Do you think they can afford these apartments and condominium at over $2,000 a month. These are not affordable housing.” The Assembly Bill (AB) 2872 or the California Homelessness Data System Act, if passed into law, will create a statewide database to give a clearer picture of the state’s homeless population. It will also seek to provide services to homeless people and prevent people from becoming homeless.
