Nithya Raman Puts Community Second in Her Homeless Housing Plans Details
DEEGAN ON LA-This is Part 3 in a series about Councilmember Nithya Raman (CD4).
It was a facile promise for Nithya Raman (CD4) to make, in the final days of a hard campaign. Raman told voters in a last-minute mailer that she would “use city-owned parking lots to create safe parking, with services, safety, and security, that will help our unhoused neighbors, not push them out of their cars and onto our streets.”
That configuration has now morphed into affordable housing units for the homeless replacing the city parking lot at 728 S. Cochran Avenue in the Miracle Mile and another one at 1905 N. Highland Avenue, in Hollywood.
