Cutting down on the number of people who are losing their homes due to rising rents and other factors is a major priority, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is one of the panoply of things we will take up,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mobile home tenants who showed up for Tuesday's hearing largely supported the measure, though some had concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"6age1XYyomRPBpIMP2iF40HTUWFeza7N\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joe Ming, who identified himself as a 17-year-old mobile home resident, said he worried the lag time between starting to write a rent control ordinance and enacting one might spark massive rent increases at mobile home parks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think a temporary rent freeze is vital,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hahn said the county would act quickly to see if a rent freeze is legal and feasible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas' estimate, there are about 8,500 mobile homes spread out over parks throughout the county. Any rent control ordinance would apply only to those on unincorporated land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ridley-Thomas supported the proposal, though he asked that special consideration be given to how to properly enforce any ordinance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Absence of enforcement, it becomes ineffective,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board is expected to take up a drafted ordinance in August.\u003c/p>\n\n",

For example, they could not \"unreasonably restrict sidewalk vendors to operate only in a designated neighborhood or area.\" The bill would also bar local authorities from prohibiting licensed street vendors from selling food or merchandise in parks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some local cities have already adopted policies that allow street vendors to be permitted -- Pasadena \u003ca href=\"https://www.scpr.org/news/2015/06/16/52369/as-la-contemplates-legal-street-vending-a-look-at/\">is one\u003c/a> -- street vendor advocates have long pushed Los Angeles to devise a licensing system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A proposal to legalize street vending has been making its way through City Hall for more than four years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While street vending remains illegal in L.A., misdemeanor charges have tapered off since the city voted to decriminalize the practice in early 2017. According to data provided by the city attorney's office, 10 street vendors were referred for misdemeanor prosecution in 2016, but none last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the office has processed about 680 administrative citations for street vending since January 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rudy Espinoza with the Leadership for Urban Renewal Network, which advocates for legal street vending, said some L.A. vendors are still vulnerable to misdemeanors because they can be cited under different codes. For example, he said, those who sell in parks may be subject to misdemeanor charges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The decriminalization process in the city of Los Angeles has begun, but it has not been completed yet,\" Espinoza said. \"Today, if a vendor is caught vending in a park, they run the risk of getting a misdemeanor for selling ice cream, or whatever they are selling.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last fall, members of two Los Angeles City Council committees backed a \u003ca href=\"https://www.scpr.org/news/2017/11/09/77538/la-street-vending-legalization-plan-moves-forward/\">street vending proposal\u003c/a> that would allow street vendors to obtain permits, with the proceeds from fees going toward enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in response to concerns voiced by some business interests, it would also allow business owners to have a say in whether vendors can set up in front of their properties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city proposal also suggests banning street vending near certain high-traffic areas, such as Dodger Stadium, Staples Center and Hollywood Boulevard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Merchants there and in other parts of the city have long complained that street vendors block sidewalks, impeding traffic and presenting unfair competition for smaller brick-and-mortar merchants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City Council members are expected to hear the proposal later this month.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Four huge covered pots steam on top of large stoves. It’s a well-worn community kitchen that has been a beacon of support and services for the city’s homeless and low-income residents for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But today there’s a twist. The people who normally receive services from the center are running the show. They’re giving back through a holiday tamale-making party, or tamalada. And it’s all thanks to the spirit of community and care that the center fosters — one person and one meal at a time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11638934\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11638934 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-1020x679.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-1180x785.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-960x639.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lucila Velázquez is hard at work with her tamale-making crew: her daughter Heidi and friend Estella. \u003ccite>(Blair Wells/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Lucila Velázquez obviously knows what she’s doing.

Four huge covered pots steam on top of large stoves. It’s a well-worn community kitchen that has been a beacon of support and services for the city’s homeless and low-income residents for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But today there’s a twist. The people who normally receive services from the center are running the show. They’re giving back through a holiday tamale-making party, or tamalada. And it’s all thanks to the spirit of community and care that the center fosters — one person and one meal at a time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11638934\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11638934 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-1020x679.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-1180x785.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-960x639.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28707_14-qut-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lucila Velázquez is hard at work with her tamale-making crew: her daughter Heidi and friend Estella. \u003ccite>(Blair Wells/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Lucila Velázquez obviously knows what she’s doing.
