What a Welcome...

If you’re heading northwest on Beverly

Blvd., just north of Virgil, you are yards

away from entering our wonderful

community of Silver Lake. But that small

stretch of sidewalks has turned into a

pathetic example of how CD 13’s

Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martinez is

failing residents, businesses and those who

are living on the streets.


The ever-growing homeless encampment is

a disgrace and beyond disgusting. The growing filth, vermin, crime and disorder are

beyond the pale, and still nothing is being done to clean it up. What is the council

member waiting for? A murder of an incident pedestrian, motorist or trespasser?

How can he close his eyes to the inhumane conditions he allows to grow and

flourish?


Councilmember Soto-Martinez, PLEASE DO SOMETHING!


Council District 13 has been contacted repeatedly by residents, businesses, and

neighborhood groups about this situation, and they have stated the situation is

difficult to solve. While the Council District does clean the area monthly, the time has

come for a permanent solution for those who live in the encampments and the

residents of our neighborhood.


We urge residents concerned about this area to make those concerns known to

Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martinez’ Homelessness Deputies office below:


Michael Batistick

Senior Homelessness Deputy


Kylie Jansen

Homelessness Deputy
