NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA More tiny homes are coming to North Hollywood. Hope of the Valley officially unveiled their latest tiny home village in Alexandria Park, just behind Victory Outreach Church along the 101 Freeway.
Hope of the Valley CFO Rowan Vansleve credits Councilman Paul Krekorian with finding the site that would soon become the largest tiny home village in all of California. The location underwent a massive cleanup and transformation ahead of the opening, with organizers able to turn it from a potential health hazard into a place of restoration.
HOMELESSNESS POLITICS On March 24, hundreds of police officers swept Los Angeles’ Echo Park Lake of its unhoused encampments after City Councilmember Mitch O’Farrell directed the park’s closure.
The move crushed a community one leader compared to the utopian socialist Llano Del Rio settlement; police arrested 182 protesters over two nights of demonstrations and arrested or detained at least 20 journalists, according to the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker.
A year ago, the Centers for Disease Control warned that encampment sweeps could potentially increase spread of the coronavirus by dispersing people throughout the community and disrupting connections with service providers. Los Angeles accordingly cut back on such actions, outraging Angelenos who were demanding sweeps in their own neighborhoods.
