RENT CONTROL MEASURE ON NOVEMBER BALLOT:

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR By Francis Taylor, Asst. Editor

There has been a lot of talk about initiating rent control in Inglewood recently and the City Clerk indicated that it appears as though rent control proponents have garnered sufficient signatures to secure the measure on the November ballot. I sought the input of an Inglewood resident and real estate agent to provide his thoughts about the desirability of a rent control measure in the City of Inglewood. “As a Real Estate agent,” Jeremy said, “I have seen some rents literally double in a matter of days. People who were paying $1000 for a 2 bedroom are now being forced to pay $2,000 and while it may seem like an obvious solution to initiate rent control as soon as possible, thereby stabilizing rents at low values that people can afford, it also makes sense to weigh the options carefully, in order to make a concise and clear decision about what the rent control would mean for current and future citizens of this great city.” While the idea of rent control and the burden on one’s monthly budget would

seem to naturally justify support for a rent control measure, there are several factors to consider that may give one pause before casting a supportive vote in November. One significant factor is the availability of rental units. Once rent increase is im-

tive effect on the quality of maintenance landlords complete as their costs increase at a greater rate than the rate of rent increases they are able to impose. In addition, if a rent control measure is passed in Inglewood, current landlords may announce a huge increase before

posed, families tend to move considerably less frequently thereby decreasing the supply of available rental units and stagnating the local economy. Secondly, rent control measures may have a nega-

the measure becomes law that may force existing tenants to pay more rent or move out. The principle of supply and demand states that when there is limited sup-

ply, demand rises. This may be the case in many different industries, like in the food industry for example. When there was a bug eating all the lime trees, the price of limes climbed dramatically. Real Estate is different because it is not a renewable resource. With the exception of the developers in Dubai, who are building islands in the Persian Gulf by pumping sand into large piles, and the Volcanoes spewing magma into the waters off Hawaii, there is no more land in Inglewood, or California. If a rent control measure becomes law in Inglewood, it is highly likely that all of the available properties for rent would be snatched-up right away, resulting in an even smaller number of available rentals. This would make it nearly impossible for new people to move in, and make it financially difficult for people to move out, since they would keep staying and paying low rents. Local businesses benefit from a flow of people moving in and out of cities, who in turn benefit from the services that the local businesses provide. If rent

DULAN’S ‘KICKED BUTT’ By Francis Taylor, Asst. Editor

Dulan’s Soul Food Kitchen, at the corner of Manchester Boulevard and La Brea, has probably made history with the number of delicious soul food meals

it has provided since its inception many years ago. Last week Dulan’s became a part of Los Angeles football history! Dulan’s was hired to cater the Topping Out Celebration for just under 3,000 people at the new Los Angeles Football Stadium that will be the future home of the Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Chargers. Catering one of the largest events the celebrated restaurant chain has ever been engaged to present, they fed over 2,000 construction workers; representatives from the Rams and Chargers; Government Officials and the National Press, as they gathered to sign the last support beam to be installed in the Los Angeles Stadium at Hollywood Park, also referred to as City of Champions Stadium.

3400 pieces of fried chicken (fried on site), 1,000 barbecue chicken quarters, 950 pounds of potato salad (made from scratch), 22 cases of barbecue baked beans, 3000 pieces of cornbread (made from scratch), 6000 cookies baked at Dulan’s on Crenshaw, 3000 sodas, 2000 bottles of water, and a variety of condiments. The food was served on time at the proper temperatures.

The purpose of the event was to reward the construction workers for a job well done with a delicious home cooked meal provided by Dulan’s Soul Food. Because the workers were on their lunch break, Dulan’s was given 90 minutes to serve the first 2,300 (day shift) workers with the afternoon shift workers being seated at 5:00PM that evening. “To meet that challenge,” Gregory Du-

lan said, “I was very proud to be able to hire more than 75 young people from the community. We gave them server and hospitality training and when the first 1500 hungry construction workers charged them all at once; they kicked butt! They exceeded my expectations and the client was extremely happy!”

HISTORY & ITS INACCURACIES

PRESIDENT/PUBLISHER/ EDITOR Willie Brown VICE PRESIDENT Gloria Kennedy

As children, we don’t always learn the truth of history. That’s necessarily wrong, but at some point we need to know the truth just so we don’t continue to perpetuate history as we learned it. We all learned George Washington chopped down the cherry tree, except that he didn’t. King Arthur, Camelot, Sir Lancelot, and Merlin; the Arthurian legend is perhaps the most romantic in all of literature. The other extremely romantic legend is that of Robin Hood. It’s a pip, alright, with lovely Maid Marian, the Sheriff of Nottingham, and Sherwood Forest. Films, television series, and books have all told and re-told the stories. Only thing is, there is no evidence that King Arthur or Robin Hood ever existed. Remember math classes in high school? Well, the Pythagorean Theorem - the triangle thing that drove some of us crazy – is credited to the Greek philosopher, Pythagoras. He may not have been the first to come up with the theory (it may have been the Egyptians) and Pythagoras may not have existed at all. We all read the “Iliad” and the “Odyssey” by Homer. These epic stories of Ulysses and the Trojan War have en-

chanted young and old since the 12th century BC. The Homeric question has been a puzzlement since antiquity but really became a subject of debate in the 19th and 20th centuries – who was Homer and did he really exist. Disney gave us Mulan, a lovely animated film in 1998. This was the era when female heroes were emerging in many cultures. Mulan was a girl who took her father’s place in battle in this beloved Chinese tale. As we have seen in other cultures, there is no evidence

that Mulan, or a woman like her, ever existed. William Tell shot an apple off his son’s head with a bow and arrow. Though there is no evidence that the man is real or the story is true, it certainly has become a popular part of our culture. Perhaps you know the opera by Rossini, of course you do, its overture was the theme of the Lone Ranger. Celebrated in song and story was John Henry, a steel-driving man. John Henry was a former slave who challenged a steam drill to a race. He won, of course, but died soon after. This superhuman story of determination and grit seems to have no real person behind it. He seems to be a composite of many folks with the fearless spirit that post-Civil War America wanted to project. Everyone knows Uncle Sam. He’s been part of our American culture since the Revolutionary War. Before Sam, our national personification was Lady Liberty or Columbia, who first appeared prior to the Revolution. Sam has changed a bit over the years, but he probably was modeled on Sam Wilson, a New York meatpacker that supplied troops during the War of 1812. So now you know.

INGLEWOOD POLICE OFFICERS WITNESS ASSAULT ASSAILANT PROMPTLY ARRESTED By Francis Taylor, Asst. Editor On Tuesday I arrived shortly after a minor traffic accident had occurred and observed several Inglewood Police officers doing their job. Following is an account of what happened, according to the grandmother of the victim: Around 11:20 a.m., a 17 year old girl was involved in a very minor chain reaction accident on the westbound side of Manchester Blvd by Rico’s Tacos. There were about 3 cars involved. The 30 year old passenger (not the driver) that was in the car in front of my granddaughter’s car jumped out and confronted my granddaughter as she tried to explain that she was sorry that the accident had occurred. When the lady got belligerent, my granddaughter walked away. The lady followed my granddaughter to her to car. While my

granddaughter was sitting in her car with her door closed, the lady hit her in her mouth with her fist busting her lip and kept hitting her in her face breaking her glasses. My granddaughter is 5”3 barely 100lbs. Thank God Inglewood Police Officers were at Starbucks and witnessed the above mentioned encounter and arrested the perpetrator immediately. She will be charged with Felony Assault on a Minor. There was very little vehicle damage and a mere exchange of insurance and license information, without any police involvement, should have sent everyone involved on their way in a matter of a few minutes. Sadly, the assailant was unable to contain her frustration and will now face felony criminal charges as a result.

RENT CONTROL MEASURE Continued from page 1

control were enacted, you would essentially see the same people staying in the same places, shopping at the same stores, and providing little incentive for new stores and businesses to open up. Tenants should realize that landlords are business owners and when they don’t produce enough rental revenue, they may neglect their responsibilities in maintaining the property, causing a lower quality of life for the tenants. There are a lot of items associated with apartments such as insurance, property taxes, common area lighting, maintaining safe stairwells, parking and storage areas, laundry facilities, landscaping, etc. When rents go up, some people may leave, but it also causes other people to

move in. If rents were kept artificially low in Inglewood, decreasing the amount available properties, and causing those properties to be poorly maintained, hardly anyone from outside Inglewood would be able to move in. With all that Inglewood has to offer, and will offer with the new development on Prairie Avenue, including shopping, theaters, nightlife, and great Restaurants, people want to be a part of this city. If rent control were enacted, then these people would not be able to call Inglewood home, and their spending dollars would go elsewhere. It is time that Inglewood embraces the idea of inclusion and allows people the opportunity to be part of this “All American City.” Some proponents of rent control

may point to successful cities, such as Santa Monica, West Hollywood, and other properties throughout the City of Los Angeles. Renters do not typically understand that rent control cities have higher rents than non rent control cities. They also tend not to understand that if a developer decides to tear down the entire building, they can build a brand new building and charge whatever rent they want. In Santa Monica for example, many old apartment buildings have been demolished and replaced with modern condominiums that sell for astronomical prices. In the long run, rent-control tenants lose. They may receive relocation money but they have to move nevertheless. Fur-

thermore, a person who gets the privilege of paying a very low rent for a very long time does not leave any financial gain to their family. It would be a better use of our time to focus on ways of increasing the home ownership rate in Inglewood, rather than spending time initiating measures that incentivize people to never own a home their entire lives.

PUBLISHER’S MESSAGE

IGNORE THE NOISE; DON’T FOCUS ON THE NAYSAYERS With all the news lately about LeBron James and his decision to join the Los Angeles Lakers, I wondered what type of send off Cleveland Cavaliers owner, Dan Gilbert gave him following the scathing letter he dispatched when James decided to leave Cleveland for Miami. Times changed and Gilbert viewed James more as a partner than an employee. While learning about Gilbert’s success as a business owner, I came upon several ‘ism’s’ he shares with his employees in all of his businesses and item seven below, is very similar to what Mayor James T. Butts, shared in this week’s city council meeting. Here is a brief summary for your review: 1. “Always raising our level of aware ness.” Truly listening to a client is an active, not passive, skill. 2. “The inches we need are everywhere around us.” A company cannot be great by being exceptional in only one way — it requires outdoing the co petition down to the smallest details, or what Gilbert calls the “inches.” 3. “Responding with a sense of urgency is the ante to play.” All employees need to respond to phone calls and emails, whether from clients or colleagues, on the same day they were received. 4. “Every client. Every time. No exce- tions. No excuses.” Clients don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.

5. “Obsessed with finding a better way.” Gilbert wrote that he wanted employees to feel empowered to speak up if they think there’s a better way of doing something and manage ment to avoid a bureaucracy that would stifle these ideas.

12.

“We’ll figure it out.” This is a follow-up to the bit about the roast in the oven — the focus on moving forward with projects before everything is perfect should be viewed as a competitive advantage, not a source of fear.

13.

“Every second counts.”Time, not money, is the most valuable commodity of all. Time can never be replaced. Never trade significant amounts of time for small sums of money.”

14.

“Numbers and money follow; they do not lead.” Whether in approaching your career or your company’s goals, using growth as motivation rather than money will be what results in a higher paycheck and better deals.

15.

“A penny saved is a penny.” Make investments with the big picture in mind, freeing you up to make big expenses in the short term. Gilbert used an example of investing $3 million in new seats at the Quicken Loans Arena, where the Cavs play, to add to the overall value of the team.

16. 11. “You’ll see it when you believe it.” In the book, Gilbert shared a companywide email he sent in 1998 in which he 17. declares — making liberal use of exclamation points and capital letters — that for Rock Financial (Quicken Loans’ original name) to succeed in the future, it needs to become a leader 18. in providing mortgages online. It was this long-term vision, Gilbert argued,

“We eat our own dog food.” Gilbert wants all his Rock Ventures companies to take advantage of and support one another. That means using and supporting services and products within the family of companies — and there’s even a strong suggestion to cheer on the Cavs

6. “Yes before no.” This does not mean that every single idea, question, suggestion or recom mendation will ultimately be met with a big thumbs-up, but that no one should immediately shoot it down. 7. “Ignore the noise.” If there’s a problem, fix it, but without focusing on “naysayers. 8. “It’s not about WHO is right, it’s about WHAT is right.” There is no place at our company for typical corporate arrogance. 9. “We are the ‘they.’” All team members must be aware that as part of the same company they are working toward the same goals. 10. “You have to take the roast out of the oven.” Being a perfectionist can lead to missed opportunities and is a waste of time and energy.

18.

“Innovation is rewarded. Execution is worshipped.” Excellent ideas and planning are crucial to success but are only half the process. The execution of them requires just as much attention, or else nothing that came before it matters.

19. “Do the right thing.” At the end of this week’s city council meeting, Mayor Butts basically said, look at the results the City of Inglewood is realizing. Don’t be distracted by the smoke and distractions of the naysayers.

“Simplicity is genius.” Complexity does not equate to quality. In fact, it’s usually the opposite, Gilbert argued. Find the easiest, cleanest ways of getting things done. “Innovation is rewarded. Execution is worshipped.” Excellent ideas and planning are crucial to success but are only

LA CREATE SP_CE OFFERS: SHARED OFFICE SPACE & EVENT SPACES By Francis Taylor, Asst. Editor

Terell and Marisa Johnson have established a space for entrepreneurs and creative talents to bring their ideas to life in the heart of Inglewood. Located downtown at 401 E. Hillcrest Boulevard, La Create Sp_ce is a two story; 2600 square feet building that has everything from conference rooms to cameras and green screens, along with high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the building. The couple was looking for office spaces for themselves as Terell worked as an engineer for Snapchat and Marisa worked in marketing for Apple. Originally, they were saving for a house, but

after seeing different buildings in Inglewood, the Johnsons thought that they should create a business that can be an office space for multiple people. “There are a lot of business people and artists here that have to drive all the way to Hollywood or Burbank to do a photo shoot, record something, or even just to have a meeting,” said Marisa Johnson. “We have access to a lot of resources and it’s a space where you can hold yourself professionally.” Designed by local interior designers, the first story of the space is full of white walls and small accents of lively color. It includes a coworker space

with open seating at tall tables and an area with couches. This is where people with memberships can come and get work done, have meetings and meet other creatives. There is also a conference room on the first floor with a large table and about 15 seats. This room has a monitor with wireless hookups as well. Downstairs also has a refrigerator and eCafe that members can use. The upstairs is what makes this La Create Sp_ce stand out from other of-

fice spaces. The second story features a bigger conference room that is more of a creative space. An entire wall is a white-board with different color markers, while the wall across from it has the quote, “Freedom is the Very Essence of our Imagination,” in large letters. The

DEFENSE IS THE KEY FOR

LAFC By Steve Finley The Los Angeles Football Club of the MLS has a record of 10-4-4 and is currently in second place in the Western Conference. They battle the 8-3-5 Portland Timbers Sunday at 3 p.m. at the Banc of California Stadium near USC. The Dallas Football Club is in first place with a record of 10-3-5 in the Western Conference. What sets LAFC apart from a lot of other Major League Soccer teams is they play great defense. “I am happy with the defense,” said LAFC head coach Bob Bradley after their 4-1 win over Orlando City last Saturday at the Banc of California Stadium. Bradley likes the way his team is playing right now. “If you want to be a team that attacks and presses then you are going to challenge your defenders. I challenge my team and they respond really well and those are the things we keep working on. That’s the kind of football we will continue to play.” Adama Diomande leads the LAFC in goals with nine followed by Carlos Vela with seven, Diego Rossi has six and Lafit Blessing has five. Leading the way on defense is goalie Tyler Miller who may be the best goalie in the league right now.

annual Salsa Festival at Loyola Marymount University. “Bring your blanket, your lunch and your refreshments and enjoy salsa music,” he said. Council Member Franklin also acknowledged the Darby Park baseball event, indicating that it was a great family gathering. He also extended his thanks and appreciation to the Public Works Department for their improvements to Center Park, the only park in the 4th District. He indicated that the rubberized track, workout stations and improved restroom facilities have encouraged more adult park visitors and stated that the park is great for the community. Council Member Morales reminded those present about the importance of baseball in the community and thanked those responsible for the Darby Park baseball event. He also thanked the Inglewood Police Department for their patrols during the 4th of July celebrations. Mayor Butts addressed several items that, to a few, have been a subject of some consternation: He reported that he is continuing to work with METRO to hopefully, eventually complete grade separation for the train system at the intersection of Centinela and Florence. He indicated that the 5G broadband system is still in its negotiations-stage and is anticipated that it will provide internet access to the lowincome households that may not be able to afford wireless service.

LA CREATE SP_CE OFFERS:

Mayor Butts provided the truth about a misleading news story that was recently published in a local newspaper, related to the salary of the Inglewood Police Chief. He stated emphatically that the IPD Chief is not paid more than the Los Angeles Sheriff or Police Chief. He explained that the chief recently received a retroactive payment to which he was entitled and a performance bonus that contributed to an amount equivalent to 20% of his total compensation that is not reflected in the pay to other Los Angeles County chiefs of police. At the same time, Butts provided an overview of the city’s public safety record indicating the crime rate is at the lowest level in the city’s history, the rate of liability issues against IPD officers has dropped dramatically and that community policing has placed the police department in a category that has brought broad overall acceptance to the police department. Finally, the mayor boldly stated that Inglewood has progressed like no other state in the country in the last few years. He encouraged everyone to look at the results; look at who is investing in the city; look at the streets; look at our public safety record; look at the low unemployment rate; and, look at the reality of what is going on and don’t be distracted by the bogus lawsuits or the smoke that the critics continue to advance to cast shade on the city.
