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.

Raman seems a nice person, based on my limited interaction with her. But in my view, she is not cut out to lead 250,000 constituents from the San Fernando Valley to Silver Lake at a time as precarious as this. And as one poster wrote recently on NextDoor: Tom LaBonge is, without certain, rolling in his grave.
