Join us Sat, Aug. 15, 11 am, at the virtual South LA Town Hall to Oppose SB 1120 and other bad bills, hosted by South LA Alliance for Locally Planned Growth!

This week, five legislators on the Assembly Local Government Committee voted Aye for the neighborhood-crushing SB 1120. SB 1120 and its cousin, SB 902, now head to Assembly Appropriations. We have less than 2 weeks  to kill these bills!

SB 1120 ends single family zoning, allowing homes to be demolished, the lots split in half, and two houses built on each new half — with no yards, no garages.

SB 1120 puts working-class & middle-class streets on the chopping block.

Developers can build 4 profitable rental homes where 1 owned home now stands.

Racially diverse, working-class and middle-class regions of SoCal will be overrun. So will areas near Silicon Valley. Among the many threatened communities:

  • South L.A.
  • L.A.’s Eastside
  • San Fernando Valley
  • San Gabriel Valley’s Arcadia, Whittier, Hacienda Heights
  • L.A. Southeast cities Paramount, Compton, South Gate
  • Central Orange County and  beach cities
  • Bay Area’s Castro Valley, Fremont, Hayward
  • Contra Costa Co. including Lafayette, Moraga, Orinda

 

Black residents of South L.A. testified against SB 1120 this week — and many were cut off by the committee, while speaking. Now they’ll be heard. Aug. 15, 11am. 

Please attend the South LA Town Hall Against SB 1120 and Other Bad Bills.
