LA Councilmember introduces city s first Tiny Home Village for those battling homelessness
The City of Los Angeles plans to open its first
LOS ANGELES - The City of Los Angeles plans to open its first Tiny Home Village for those battling homelessness in North Hollywood in January.
The 64-square-foot units are able to house 75 homeless people with a bed, air conditioning and electricity. Mayor Eric Garcetti first announced the program in March.
Councilman Paul Krekorian, who represents the East San Fernando Valley region, says there are more than 700 homeless individuals living on the streets in his district. When we’re done with this project and the next two tiny cabin projects, as well as the hotel that we bought in this district for the homeless, we will have room for every single one of those 709 people and we will have that done by April of this year, Krekorian said.
