Disaster loans available for LAHSA announces immediate and long-term businesses affected by warehouse fire as cleanup continues reforms following independent firm's review By Joe Taglieri

ollowing an independent review by a wellknown international accounting firm, the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority on Friday reaffirmed plans to modernize financial operations in an effort to end chronic failures managing contractors and the joint city-count agency's finances. As LA County and city officials over the last few years have initiated steps to break away from LAHSA, the fiscal review by KPMG earlier this year found that delayed payments to contracted service-providing organizations stemmed from a combination of interconnected operational issues rather than any single underlying cause, according to LAHSA officials. KPMG reviewers also identified opportunities to improve workflow efficiency, reduce administrative bottlenecks, strengthen cash management practices and modernize financial systems. Officials said LAHSA has already implemented many of the firm's recommendations. "The KPMG review provides valuable validation of challenges we have already identified and begun

addressing," Interim LAHSA CEO Gita O’Neill said in a statement. "The report also offers a roadmap for continued improvements that will strengthen our ﬁnancial operations, support our provider partners, and ensure public funds are administered effectively and responsibly." KPMG auditors speciﬁed organizational and operational factors that primarily caused LAHSA’s problems —

complicated administrative and contractor workﬂows, manual as opposed to automated work "processes," the complexity of dealing with multiple funding sources and the underutilization of data systems that could help improve operations. LAHSA ofﬁcials said many of the report's recommendations align with corrective

actions that LAHSA is already doing or is starting to implement: • "Launching a payment backlog reduction strategy and clearing outstanding payables; • "Better coordinating with funders to improve cash ﬂow and pay providers on time; • "Implementing new ﬁnan-

mall businesses and privatenonprofit corporations affected by the recent cold-storage warehouse fire in Boyle Heights can start applying for lowinterest federal disaster loans. The U.S. Small Business Administration approved a request from state officials for a disaster declaration to enable the loan program, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday. "The Boyle Heights community has endured tremendous disruption, and we moved quickly to bring every available resource to bear," Newsom said in a statement. "These loans will help local businesses and nonprofits meet essential costs, retain workers, and move forward as the community recovers." The SBA's disaster declaration followed an Aug. 10 request from the Governor's Office of Emergency Services. "Recovery depends on getting practical assistance to communities as quickly as possible," Cal OES Director Caroline Thomas Jacobs said in a statement. "Cal OES requested this declaration so affected businesses

and nonprofits can access additional support to meet essential costs and continue serving the Boyle Heights community. We will continue working with Los Angeles and our federal partners to connect eligible organizations with the resources they need to recover." Loans can go as high as $2 million with interest rates as low as 4% for businesses and 3.625% for nonprofits and with terms of up to 30 years. Interest does not accrue, and repayment starts 12 months after the initial loan disbursement. SBA officials determine eligibility and set loan amounts and terms based on an applicant's specific financial situation. The SBA's Economic Injury Disaster Loans provide working capital and are available even when a business or nonprofit did not sustain physical damage. Loan funds may pay fixed debts, payroll expenses, accounts payable and other costs that could not be paid as a result of the fire.

he Trump administration announced Tuesday it plans to rescind decades-old conservation protections in the San Gabriel Mountains and other national forest lands. The proposal from the U.S. Forest Service would scrap the entire so-called roadless rule adopted in the last days of Bill Clinton's presidency in 2001. The rollback would remove long-standing protections for about 4 million acres in California. The U.S. Department of Agriculture claims the move is necessary to reduce wildfire risk and expand forest management. According to Alex Craven, the Sierra Club's forest campaign manager, the roadless rule "is the only thing preventing much of our wildest remaining national forests from industrial development. These forests offer critical habitat for wildlife; provide clean, fresh air and water for millions; and contain vast swaths of the last remaining old-growth forests in the country." The measure protects 58 million acres of roadless national forest areas in 39 states, Craven said. Eliminating the roadless

rule would jeopardize popular recreation areas, wildlife habitat and drinking water sources across 10 national forests statewide, from the Klamath Mountains and the Sierra Nevada to southern ranges, such as the Cleveland National Forest, conservation groups say. "By their very nature, roadless areas are remote and inaccessible and experience far fewer ignitions than lands near roads," Dr. Gregory Aplet, senior forest scientist with The Wilderness Society, said in a statement. "Opening roadless areas to logging and road construction will only increase the number of fires, not reduce them." U.S. Secretary of Agri-

culture Brooke Rollins said the restrictions on forest lands have frustrated land managers and served as a barrier to wildfire risk reduction work across large swaths of America's national forests. "Our forests can't afford another decade of inaction," she said Tuesday. "Across the country, we've watched preventable conditions -- overgrown stands, insect outbreaks and disease -turn healthy landscapes into tinderboxes. For too long, outdated restrictions have kept tens of millions of forested acres off-limits to the very treatments that improve forest health and reduce wildfire risk to our communities.

"Today, we filed a proposal to restore authority to local forest managers who know the land best, removing the barriers that have kept them from doing the work the land demands. It's time to turn the page on the failed roadless rule and return our forests to health and productivity." The action is intended to prioritize local agency decision-making over regulatory rules that are the same across the country, regardless of specific land management issues and needs, Rollins said. "Active forest management is not an option," said Forest Service Chief Tom Schultz. "It's essential. More than 40% of inventoried roadless areas, primarily in the West, have high or very high wildfire hazard potential. And only 5% of those areas have received hazardous fuels reduction treatments since 2014. At the same time, more than a quarter of these lands -- 11.3 million acres -- are already near existing roads. Acting now, thoughtfully and decisively, is the best way to restore the balance, reduce wildfire risk, and secure the long-term health of our forests and neighboring communities."

July Rent Report: Renting a starter home costs less than buying in all 50 largest US metros, but the gap is narrowing By Staff

enting a starter home remains less expensive than buying in all 50 of the nation's largest metropolitan areas, according to the Realtor.com July 2026 Rent Report. However, home price, rent trends, and wage growth in seven markets suggest a buying opportunity may be near, even as the Realtor.com Market Clock is signaling buyer friendly or buyerleaning conditions in these areas. As the advantages of renting have narrowed over the past year as starterhome costs declined more quickly than rents, creating a more favorable backdrop for prospective buyers in select markets. The national median asking rent for 0-2 bedroom properties across the 50 largest metros was $1,695 in July, down $24, or 1.4%, from a year earlier. The decline marks the 36th consecutive month of annual rent decreases. Although median rent across all unit sizes remains $225, or 15.3%, above July 2019 levels, it is $69, or 3.9%, below its August 2022 peak. "Renters have gained meaningful financial breathing room over the last three years, and that advantage is still real in many major metros," said Jiayi Xu, senior economist at Realtor.com. "But the savings gap is no longer moving in just one direction. Starter-home prices are falling faster than rents in many places, giving households who are ready to

buy a stronger reason to stay engaged with the market." Rent declines extend across every unit size In July 2026, the median asking rent for two-bedroom units dropped 1.4% year over year, marking the 38th consecutive month of annual declines. At $1,893, the national median for twobedroom units now sits $75 (-3.8%) below its July 2022 peak. Despite this broadbased softening, rents remain above pre-pandemic levels. Two-bedroom rents are 17.5% higher than in July 2019, one-bedroom rents are 14.6% higher and studio rents are 13.7% higher. Renting still delivers significant monthly savings Across the 50 largest metros, the monthly cost of buying a starter home was $2,553 in July. However, home price, rent trends, and wage growth in a few key markets

suggest a buying opportunity may be nearer. The national rent advantage narrowed by $65 from a year ago, when buying cost $923 more per month than renting vs $858 today. Over that period, median rent declined $24, while starter-home buying costs fell $89, reflecting a $57 drop from lower typical listing prices and a $33 decrease from a lower mortgage rate. To determine the monthly cost of buying a home, researchers find the median list price of 0-2 bedroom home listings (i.e., starter homes). As first-time homebuyers plan lower down payments, researchers assume a 10% down payment and use the 30-year fixed mortgage rate during the month to calculate a monthly mortgage payment. They also include the HOA fees, taxes, and homeowners insurance averaged at the metro levels

Private Party loans generally have higher interest rates, points & fees than conventional discount loans

as part of the costs. Researchers then compare this buy cost with the median rent in each metro and focus on the difference between the monthly expenses for each. The biggest rent-versusbuy gaps were mostly concentrated in markets that have seen sustained rent relief over the past few years. Austin, Texas led the nation: renting a starter home costs $1,378 per month compared with $3,295 to buy, a $1,917 or 139.1% monthly difference. Seattle renters saved $1,961 or 103.8% per month, and Los Angeles renters saved $2,049 or 73.5% per month. The overall advantage of renting shrinks compared with a year ago In July 2026, the average monthly cost of buying a starter home in the largest 50 metros was $858 (50.6%) higher than renting, whereas the cost of buying was $923

(53.7%) higher than renting in July 2025. In other words, the overall advantage of renting narrowed by $65 across the largest 50 metros compared with a year ago. While the rent cost declined by $24, from $1,719 to $1,695, over the past 12 months, the buy cost for a starter home dropped by $89, from $2,642 to $2,553— including a $57 decline from changes in typical listing prices and a $33 decrease from a lower mortgage rate, because the 30-year fixed mortgage rate dropped from 6.72% in July 2025 to 6.54% in the last month. Buying conditions are improving in seven markets Renting may be cheaper today, but the balance is shifting in markets where starter-home listing prices are declining faster than rents and average weekly

earnings are growing at or above the 3.8% national rate. Across the 50 largest metros, the median listing price of a starter home fell 2.9% year over year in July, compared with a 1.4% decline in rents. Seven markets met both measures: Oklahoma City; Orlando, Fla.; Seattle; Miami; Tampa, Fla.; Las Vegas; and Nashville, Tenn. These markets offer different degrees of rent savings today, but each is seeing conditions move more favorably for prospective buyers. Orlando is closest to a monthly crossover, where buying costs only $19 more per month than renting. Meanwhile, Oklahoma City, Seattle and Nashville pair some of the largest monthly savings from renting with improving purchase conditions. "Improving buying conditions do not make the decision to purchase automatic, especially when renting is still cheaper," Xu said. "These conditions do give renters more flexibility and confidence when making that decision. Households can continue to save while renting, or, if they are ready to buy, pursue a market where home prices, rents and earnings are increasingly working in their favor."

Orange County UC Irvine Langson Orange County Museum of Art announces ‘Tokio Ueyama: The Hollows Between Mountains’ UC Irvine Langson Orange County Museum of Art presents "Tokio Ueyama: The Hollows Between Mountains," the first major museum exhibition in California dedicated to the work of Japanese American artist Tokio Ueyama. The exhibition will be on view from Sept. 26 to Feb. 28. Featuring newly conserved and never previously exhibited paintings alongside archival materials, "Tokio Ueyama: The Hollows Between Mountains" positions the artist within the artistic, intellectual, and political networks

REGIONALS that shaped California, Japan, and the broader Pacific world during the first half of the 20th century. Ueyama’s work is shown alongside paintings by the California Impressionists with whom he regularly exhibited throughout his lifetime, re-creating a key context in which he operated. A two-year collaboration with UC Irvine’s East Asian Studies Department and a Tokyo-based translator has produced the first English-language translations of Ueyama’s personal papers and the critical reception he received in the Japanese press of Little Tokyo, Los Angeles, and Japan. Anaheim Boysen skate park groundbreaking launches park transformation Anaheim is updating Boysen Park with the addition of a skate park. Construction is underway on the half-acre skate park along State College Boulevard and Vermont Avenue, just north of Angel Stadium of Anaheim. Anaheim Mayor Ashleigh Aitken, District 4 Council Member Norma Campos Kurtz, who represents the area around Boysen Park, and other members of Anaheim's City Council joined U.S. Rep Lou Correa Monday for an event marking the start of construction of the skate park, which is set to open later this year. The skate park is the first part of a larger renovation of Boysen Park that is playing out in phases to ensure most of the park remains open for residents during upgrades. The $1.6 million skate park will have a pool-style bowl, quarter pipe, mini half-pipe, rails, ledges and seating and shade structures. The skate park and other Boysen Park upgrades are based on community input after Anaheim received $15 million in state funding in 2022. The estimated cost to complete the full renovation is $30 million, which would come from grants, development fees and other sources with timing to be determined based on funding.

Riverside County New curriculum warns Riverside County students of deadly drug during health class As high schoolers head back

to school this month, a new curriculum warning of the dangers of fentanyl will be on the syllabus at multiple school districts throughout Riverside County. In 2022, the County of Riverside created an award-winning public awareness campaign to address the fentanyl epidemic, known as "Faces of Fentanyl." This effort integrates knowledge and resources from county public safety and healthcare agencies. The Riverside County Office of Education (RCOE) recently joined the effort, using resources from various county agencies to bring the new curriculum into health classes. Since the "Faces of Fentanyl" campaign launched in 2022, fentanyl deaths in Riverside County dropped by approximately 54%, from a peak of 545 deaths during March 2023–February 2024 to 251 deaths during March 2025–February 2026. The curriculum is provided at no cost to any district that has requested it since its launch. In addition, the new statewide mandate has school districts outside of Riverside County seeking access to the RCOE materials, including districts in Los Angeles County and Ventura County.

Buss siblings double-down on sale of Lakers, despite Jeanie Buss opposition By City News Service

he five Buss family siblings who announced plans to sell the family's stake in the Lakers insisted Tuesday they intend to move forward with the sale, despite opposition from current team governor/ CEO Jeanie Buss. In a statement sent Tuesday to ESPN and other outlets, Jim, Johnny, Janie, Joey and Jesse Buss said the Lakers "have never been just a basketball team. They have been one of the greatest privileges of our lives." "Our focus has always been on what we believe is best for the Lakers, the fans who have supported this franchise for generations and the greater Los Angeles community," the five siblings said. "Johnny, Jimmy, Janie, Joey and Jesse have made the decision to sell the family's remaining stake, and we remain united in that decision. We intend to move forward thoughtfully, respectfully and through the appropriate process. "We have tremendous respect for Bob Iger and Josh Kushner and believe they understand what the Lakers represent to Los Angeles and our incredibly loyal fan base. We are confident they will honor everything this franchise stands for while building upon the foundation our father created." The siblings announced Monday that they had voted to sell the Buss family's

remaining 17.8% stake in the team to new majority owners Bob Iger and Josh Kushner. Iger and Kushner announced last week plans to purchase a controlling stake in the team from current owner Mark Walter for $12.5 billion - which would be a record total for an NBA franchise. In a statement to ESPN Monday, the Buss family said, "We have decided as a family to sell the remaining Buss Family Trust shares to the Bob Iger group as part of the ongoing transaction. We love the Lakers, Laker fans and will continue to support Los Angeles; but it is time to use this opportunity to move on and exit gracefully while we still can." But Monday afternoon, an attorney for Jeanie Buss sent a letter to lawyers for the other siblings, demanding they retract the announcement of the proposed sale, insisting that rules of the family trust and a 2017 court ruling make clear that she will remain a controlling owner of the team for life. "Any attempt by the co-trustees to do otherwise, and any attempt to aid or abet the co-trustees as such, would constitute a breach of trust, breach of fiduciary duty and be in contempt of court," according to the letter sent by Jeanie Buss' attorney Adam Streisand and obtained by multiple media outlets, including ESPN and the Cali-

fornia Post. "On behalf of Jeanie Buss, I demand that your clients make clear publicly that Jeanie Buss is the controlling owner of the Los Angeles Lakers and that your clients shall take no action on this supposed ‘vote’ to sell the 17.8% stake," Streisand wrote. The letter called the announcement of a planned sale of the family's stake "just the latest instance of a years-long pattern whereby Joey and Jesse Buss leak false, defamatory and pernicious `information' ... for the malicious purpose of doing harm to the Los Angeles Lakers so long as Dr. (Jerry) Buss' chosen successor, Jeanie Buss, carries out her father's wishes." Any such sale would result in Jeanie Buss no longer being the team's governor, because she would no longer have the qualifying 15% ownership stake in the franchise required by the NBA to hold that position. She has been team governor since 2013, following the death of her father Jerry Buss. Jeanie Buss was the lone sibling who did not vote to sell the team Monday, and multiple sources told ESPN that she did not respond to the family vote on whether to sell the team. Streisand is demanding that the five other siblings "make clear publicly that Jeanie Buss is the controlling owner of the Los Angeles

Lakers" and "take no action on this supposed `vote' to sell the 17.8% stake." Iger is a former CEO of the Walt Disney Co., and Kushner is the younger brother of Jared Kushner, who is married to President Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka. According to ESPN, Kushner and Iger were originally purchasing 65% of the Lakers franchise under its deal with Walter. Adding the Buss family's share would give Kushner and Iger about 83% of the team. That sale is still contingent on approval from the NBA Board of Governors, which is scheduled to meet Sept. 15-16 in New York.

Jerry Buss purchased the Lakers in 1979 for $67.5 million in a deal that also included the NHL's Kings and The Forum. Buss sold his controlling interest in the Kings in 1988 and what is now the Kia Forum in 1999. Following his death in 2013, Lakers ownership passed to his children, with Jeanie Buss serving as team governor ever since. The Lakers thrived under the Buss family's leadership, becoming one of the most storied franchises in sports. They captured 11 NBA championships during that span, and most recently won a title in 2020. Since Jerry Buss' death,

however, there have been disputes among the Buss siblings over leadership of the team. In 2017, Jim Buss was ousted from his role overseeing basketball operations. That same year, the family was in probate court battling over control of the franchise, leading to the judge's ruling cited by Jeanie Buss' attorney on Monday challenging the supposed sale of the family's stake in the team. Some of the siblings also disputed last year's sale of the team to Walter. Following that sale, Joey and Jesse Buss were fired from their frontoffice jobs with the Lakers, although they maintained their minority ownership.

Disney, ABC sue FCC over TV broadcast license reviews By City News Service

he Walt Disney Company and eight of its ABC television affiliates, including ABC7 in Los Angeles, sued the Federal Communications Commission Tuesday, alleging that the government agency has violated ABC's constitutional right to free speech. The suit comes after the FCC initiated an unusually early review of the eight stations' broadcast licenses in April. Disney and ABC say the Trump administration is pursuing a political vendetta against the network for what it perceives to be biased reporting, along with the persistent criticism of the president by late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel. The complaint was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, and names also defendants FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, Commissioners Anna Gomez and Olivia Trusty, and "John Does 1-2 in their official capacities as commissioners."

In its complaint, the Burbank-based media conglomerate says the action concerns the administration's "sustained effort" to "punish or suppress disfavored expression." "Acting through the Federal Communications Commission, the Administration has waged a retaliatory campaign against ABC for a single reason: It disapproves of what ABC broadcasts. That campaign began in this Administration's earliest days and has only intensified since. Again and again, the Administration has attacked ABC's speech -- the stories its journalists report and the viewpoints its network programs air," the complaint alleges. "Over time, those attacks have escalated into express demands that ABC be stripped of its broadcast licenses because of its speech." An FCC spokesperson provided the following statement to City News Service:

"All broadcasters have a legal obligation to operate in the public interest -- even Disney. The FCC has been examining claims that Disney engaged in illegal DEI discrimination for over a year. Disney is obviously very concerned about the FCC's proceeding, as evidenced by their ongoing campaign of disinformation as well as their decision to ask a court to stop the FCC from further pursuing matters. The FCC will continue to follow the facts and law wherever they lead." Carr has also said recently that broadcasters have a duty to operate in the public interest and the FCC is merely trying to restore that standard. Hostility between the network and the Trump administration reached a boiling point on Sept. 15, days after the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Kimmel, whose monologues have increasingly focused on ridicule and criti-

cism of Trump over the years, made a remark about Kirk's alleged killer being apart of the "MAGA gang," which sparked immediate outrage from Trump and others on the political right who accused the comedian of distorting the truth since there was considerable evidence that the suspect leaned to the left politically. ABC suspended Kimmel for a week, with many on the left accusing the network of

caving to political pressure. Of the license renewal reviews, the plaintiffs' filing further states: "The Commission is poised to make good on its threat any day now: the public comment period on the renewal applications has closed, and the Commission may, at any moment, issue an unprecedented Hearing Designation Order for all eight stations, which would kick off a formal agency adjudication to determine

the fate of ABC's licenses. " ... Facing this existential threat, plaintiffs have no choice but to seek redress from the judicial branch ... This court should immediately enjoin defendants from taking or threatening to take any action against plaintiffs in relation to the early license renewal applications, including issuing a Hearing Designation Order in connection with plaintiffs' renewal applications."

UCLA study: Youth favor people over digital media for spiritual guidance By City News Service

oung people are turning to digital media to explore religion and spirituality, but they continue to trust parents, caregivers and faith leaders more for spiritual guidance, according to a UCLA study released Tuesday. The first Future of Faith study from UCLA's Center for Scholars & Storytellers surveyed more than 2,000 people ages 16 to 24 and conducted focus groups with nearly 100 adolescents and young adults ages 14 to 24. According to the study, more than 97% of religious respondents and 80% of nonreligious respondents said they had been spiritually moved, inspired or comforted by online content. Online content also encouraged young people to explore new beliefs and

practices, with 67% of religious respondents and 78% of nonreligious respondents saying it helped them discover new spiritual or religious ideas. Despite the role of digital media, more than 60% of religious respondents said their religious practice remained rooted in traditional settings or combined traditional practices with media use. Respondents ranked people they know in person, including faith community leaders and parents or caregivers, as their most trusted sources for understanding their faith, followed by other family members and religious peers. "Gen Z and Gen Alpha are redefining what religion and spirituality look like in the digital age, and they have an appetite for authentic

content that reflects and amplifies their beliefs and practices," Yalda T. Uhls, the study's senior author and founder of the Center for Scholars & Storytellers, said in a statement. "There is a real opportunity for

media creators to step up and develop content that will spark curiosity, foster connection and open new pathways for young people to explore their faith in a safe environment." The study also found

concerns among young people about how religion and spirituality are portrayed in media. More than 60% of respondents said something they encountered in media had made them feel less safe expressing their religious beliefs, while 70% of religious respondents said media portrayals of their religion or spirituality influenced how others treated them. Less than half of respondents in nearly every religious and nonreligious group said portrayals of their faith or beliefs were accurate, according to the study. More than half of respondents from most religious groups said content about religious beliefs or worldviews had contributed to conflict or tension with a

family member, friend or peer. Researchers said participants wanted content creators, influencers and television and film producers to offer more nuanced and authentic portrayals of religion and spirituality. Fewer than one-third of religious respondents said they had a strong faith- or belief-based online community. The study included participants who identified as evangelical Christian, Catholic, Muslim, Jewish, Latter-day Saints, Sikh, mainline Protestant, Hindu and Buddhist, as well as those who identified as agnostic, atheist or spiritual but nonreligious. The study was funded by the Templeton World Charity Foundation. Researchers from Baylor University and UC Riverside also served as advisers.

LA County opens registration for 16 public housing waiting lists

Warehouse fire continued Wednesday, with the company announcing Tuesday that nearly all the bulk food waste at the facility at 1400 Los Palos St. has been removed. The massive blaze that started June 17 and burned for seven days caused a persistent stench of rotting food and pest problems that disrupted the adjacent neighborhood. Lineage Logistics Inc., the company that runs the cold-storage facility, had not completed the food cleanup by last Friday's deadline cited by Los Angeles officials. The company, however, claimed Mayor Karen Bass' 45-day deadline does not expire until later this week. "The final stretch of food waste removal is the most complex and we continue to prioritize both speed and safety," according to Lineage on Tuesday. "What remains is loose food product lodged within a six-story rack system spanning 40 miles of shelving — much in areas where heavy equipment cannot reach. Workers in full protective gear are climbing into racks

more than six stories high to manually push product down. Others clear it bay by bay from the floor." Company representatives said they have already started the next phase of the cleanup — "proactive decontamination and cleaning in parallel with removing the remaining loose debris, including power washing, disinfecting, detailing and deodorizing. Our focus remains on fully remediating the site to eliminate odor impacts on the surrounding community." Bass has been critical of the company during the cleanup for allegedly failing

to make good on its pledge to speed up the effort. "Lineage is a multibillion-dollar company with the resources to meet the 45-day deadline I set," Bass said in a statement last week. "They have indicated that they will not meet it (Aug. 14). Meanwhile, the people of Boyle Heights and East Los Angeles continue to live with the consequences. Families are still dealing with horrific odors and the constant uncertainty of when this nightmare will end."

os Angeles County residents can continue registering Tuesday for 16 public housing waiting lists, including 10 for properties designated for elderly residents. Interested residents can register for one or more of the site-based waiting lists through 5 p.m. Sept. 16, according to the Los Angeles County Development Authority, or LACDA. Waiting lists for designated small sites will close once 1,000 applications are received or at the Sept. 16 deadline, whichever comes first. The county's Section 8 waiting list remains closed. The 10 elderly-designated properties are Carmelitos Senior in Long Beach, Rosas/ Herbert Senior in East Los Angeles, Palm Senior and West Knoll Senior in West Hollywood, Marina Manor Senior in Marina del Rey, Foothill Villa Senior in La Crescenta, Orchard Arms Senior in Valencia, Fran-

cisquito Villa Senior in La Puente, Whittier Manor Senior in Whittier and South Bay Gardens Senior in South Los Angeles. The six general-occupancy properties are Carmelitos Family in Long Beach, Harbor Hills Family in Lomita, East County Family in East Los Angeles, Santa Monica Family in Santa Monica, Quartz Hill Family in Quartz Hill and South Scattered Sites in South Los Angeles. As housing units become available, registrants will be selected from each waiting list based on applicable preferences, followed by the date and time of registration, according to the agency. Applicants may register for more than one waiting list, but anyone offered a unit from one of their selected lists who rejects the offer will be removed from all of the other waiting lists they selected, officials said. For purposes of the elderly-designated properties, an elderly household is one

in which the head, co-head, spouse or sole member is at least 62 years old. Such households can also include two or more people who are at least 62 living together, or one or more people at least 62 living with one or more live-in aides. Smoking is prohibited on the grounds and inside housing units at all LACDA public housing developments. The LACDA owns and operates 3,229 public and affordable housing units at 68 properties serving more than 6,650 residents. Public housing residents pay no more than 30% of their adjusted monthly gross income toward rent, according to the agency. Registration is available online at harp.lacda.org/ex/ NewApp.aspx or by calling 626-586-1522. Additional information about the properties, including addresses, bedroom sizes and amenities, is available at lacda.org.

Fowler Museum at UCLA showcases the Philippines’ Banaue Rice Terraces May S. Ruiz MayRChu56@gmail.com

ilipinos lovingly refer to them as the Eighth Wonder of the World ... and with good reason. The Banaue Rice Terraces in the Philippines are an aweinspiring sight to behold! Painstakingly carved mostly by hand by the Ifugao of the Cordillera Mountains, they are an agricultural marvel that continues to nourish Filipinos to this day. The Fowler Museum at UCLA showcases this magnificent place in an installation called Mountain Spirits: Rice and Indigeneity in the Northern Luzon Highland, Philippines. The immersive exhibition opened April 12 and runs through January, inviting visitors into a living cultural landscape where rice cultivation sustains life, memory and spiritual practices. The show explores how — for hundreds of years — the Ifugao have shaped their mountainous surroundings through agriculture, ritual and ancestral knowledge. Mountain Spirits focuses on a shift in history that recently came to light. Radiocarbon-dating surveys led by Stephen Acabado through the Ifugao Archeological Project — working with collaborating researchers — shattered the longheld belief that the rice terraces date back 2,000 years. Their findings have determined that these engineering and technological achievements were first constructed in the 16th century to protect and defend the Ifugao’s indigeneity from invasions, particularly from Spanish colonization of the Philippine lowlands. By moving into the highlands and expanding wet-rice agriculture, the

Ifugao transformed steep mountainsides into irrigated fields supported by complex forest and watermanagement systems, ensuring both food security and political autonomy. Five terrace clusters in Ifugao Province have been designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Through carved wooden figures, ritual objects, baskets, textiles, tools and videos, Mountain Spirits shows rice not only as food, but as a sacred substance essential to Ifugao cosmology, social life, history and identity. Drawing on the Fowler Museum’s holdings, the exhibition foregrounds Indigenous knowledge systems based on reciprocity and long-term environmental stewardship. By email co-curators Gassia Armenian and Amy Landau discuss the museum’s extensive holdings of Philippine artifacts, past exhibitions related to them, the items on display in this show and which are the most significant, the public reaction and the visitor takeaway. According to Armenian The Fowler Museum is renowned for its Southeast Asian collections and has held several exhibitions showcasing Philippine art and culture. Additionally, the museum has published multiple scholarly books and essays to share the major research its curators have conducted with academia and the wider public. “We selected objects that together tell the story of Ifugao life, highlighting the connections among agriculture, architecture, ritual and community,” Landau describes. “The exhibition features 110 objects from the Fowler Museum’s Ifugao

collection, complemented by immersive video, sound, archival photographs and interpretive displays that place these cultural belongings within the broader story of Ifugao life.” Laundau says the three elements that capture the exhibition’s spirit are the model of the traditional Ifugao bale, Paul Connor’s immersive film, and the hagabi ceremonial bench. Together they represent architecture, continuity and the values of generosity, leadership and community that are central to Ifugao life. “The second component: immersive, in situ film footage skillfully captured by Paul Connor, is important in telling this story,” observes Armenian. “ This footage opens a multitude of new ways to view and appreciate the objects and textiles, creating a kind of ‘conversation’ between the objects and their natural habitat. It was remarkable to see the objects in action — during the planting and harvesting of rice, in the storage that followed, in sacrifices made to the ancestors, in rites and rituals, and, finally, in the sharing of the bounty with the community.” Asked what one display embodies the spirit of the Ifugao people and the exhibition, Armenian replies, “You are putting me in a very tight situation. I love all the displays in the exhibition, particularly since I was involved in their installation. However, the section I love most is the one on rituals, where we have the opportunity to see the ritual objects that the mumbaki — the priest — uses to bless the rice fields and the harvest,

as well as the objects he uses to bless the community.” “I love this section because it shows us that, for the Ifugao, the bounty of the rice harvest is not meant for the wealth and prosperity of the individual who owns the field — it is meant to be shared by the community,” expounds Armenian . “After all, each member of the community had a role in the fields: from tilling the soil, to planting the seeds, to protecting the ecosystem of the terraces, to harvesting the crops, to storing the rice, pounding the rice, cooking the meal, blessing the fields and blessing the community.” Armenian hopes Mountain Spirits touches exhibition guests in a similar way. “I want the visitors to detach from their worries and daily routines and be transported to the Ifugao rice terraces and enjoy the power of the community and maybe return from their virtual trip with determination to empower their own communities and to start

judging each other not by material and monetary wealth, but by the joy in their hearts.” There has been considerable public interest in the exhibition since it opened in April. Landau says, “As Director of Education and Interpretation, I’ve been especially pleased by the strong interest in K-12 school tours. At the university level, we’ve welcomed not only UCLA classes but also courses from other colleges and universities across Southern California. I think that reflects one of the exhibition’s unique strengths: it is a university museum exhibition created through close collaboration among faculty, students, museum professionals and the Ifugao community, making it a valuable resource for teaching and research.” Landau adds, “I certainly hope this exhibition encourages future collaborations and exhibitions that highlight Indigenous cultures throughout Southeast Asia.

There are many important stories still to be shared, and I hope Mountain Spirits helps open the door to those possibilities.” “I hope visitors leave with a deeper appreciation that the Ifugao are not simply part of the past but a vibrant community whose knowledge, traditions and stewardship endure today,” says Landau. “I also hope they recognize the importance of Indigenous knowledge in addressing contemporary environmental and cultural challenges.” The Banaue Rice Terraces are a testament to the Ifugao’s ingenuity in the face of necessity. Because of this collaborative exhibition, we are able to see them through a different lens and grasp their significance. More than a tourist attraction or a symbol of peaceful resistance to colonialism, the rice terraces are a living legacy that should be cultivated and safeguarded so future generations may continue to benefit from them.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this property. Please be advised that the trustee may require entity or trust bidders at this trustee’s sale to provide information, documentation and/or certification of the vesting instructions and the data required to be reported pursuant to FinCEN regulations effective for transfers of residential real property to covered transferees on or after March 1, 2026. The required information must be provided to the trustee before a trustee’s deed upon sale will be issued for covered transfers. Additional information regarding these regulations and the required transferee information and certifications can be found at https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/08/29/2024-19198/anti-money-laundering-regulations-for-residentialreal-estate-transfers and https://www. fincen.gov/rre-faqs#d_5 NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. Please be advised that the trustee may require entity or trust bidders at this trustee’s sale to provide information, documentation and/or certification of the vesting instructions and the data required to be reported pursuant to FinCEN regulations effective for transfers of residential real property to covered transferees on or after March 1, 2026. The required information must be provided to the trustee before a trustee’s deed upon sale will be issued for covered transfers. Additional information regarding these regulations and the required transferee information and certifications can be found at https://www.federalregister.gov/ documents/2024/08/29/2024-19198/antimoney-laundering-regulations-for-residential-real-estate-transfers and https://www. fincen.gov/rre-faqs#D_5 NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (916) 939-0772 or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 24-00185. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (916) 939-0772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 24-00185 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THAT if the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Further, if the foreclosure sale is set aside for any reason, the pur-

You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's sale.

PWP touts Altadena reservoir, other infrastructure upgrades By Staff

4.1-million-gallon reservoir in Altadena damaged during the Eaton Fire is among a number of infrastructure projects completed or underway, the Pasadena Department of Water and Power announced Monday. The Allen Reservoir is back to full functionality following repairs to parts of its structure damaged in the January 2025 wildfire. Crews completed work in April on the concrete-lined, partially buried storage facility built in the 1930s, PWP officials said. The reservoir operated at half capacity during repair work to keep water service available. "Repairs included replacing structural members and rebuilding portions of the interior catwalk and handrail to restore the facility to full service," PWP reported. "Upgrades at the facility also included replacing aged drain valves. After construction,

the reservoir was thoroughly cleaned, disinfected and returned to full service." The utility operates 14 reservoirs and is largest water provider to Altadena residents, officials said. PWP provides water and electricity to 165,000 residents in a 26-square-mile service area containing 535 miles of water-main pipes. The Allen Reservoir restoration was among several recent infrastructure projects. "Continued investment in our water infrastructure is important to reliable, highquality water service, and we appreciate the community's patience and partnership during the construction work," PWP General Manager David Reyes said in a statement. Water infrastructure replacement work this year occurred on Fair Oaks Avenue, Oak Knoll Avenue, Holly Street, Villa Street and Grand Avenue, the utility reported. Additional water

main replacement projects are planned or underway on areas of Villa Street, Colorado Boulevard and Wallis Street. Crews replaced two old water mains — 8- and 12-inch lines that had been in service for more than 90 years — with a new 12-inch ductile iron main. Trench repair, fullwidth pavement resurfacing, curb and gutter repairs, curb ramp improvements and updated road striping were done with the help of the city’s Department of Public Works. PWP also replaced a 100-year-old water main on Oak Knoll Avenue between Colorado and California boulevards. Completed in April, PWP installed nearly 3,800 feet of new 8-inch ductile iron pipe intended to keep water service reliable. As part of larger ongoing improvements in the area, PWP also installed a 12-inch water main on Holly Street between Marengo Avenue and North Arroyo Parkway

that crews completed in May. Additional improvements were on Villa Street, where crews replaced a 6-inch cast iron main that was over 90 years old with an 8-inch ductile iron line. Officials said crews faced the challenges of working on a narrow, hightraffic street.

On Grand Avenue between California Boulevard and Green Street, a 90-yearold, 4- to 6-inch main was upgraded to a 12- to 8-inch ductile iron pipe, with work finishing in March. PWP's current and upcoming water main projects include Villa Street

between Hill and Palo Verde avenues, Colorado Boulevard between Patrician Way and Melrose Avenue and Wallis Street between Marengo and Los Robles avenues. Information about PWP projects are at PWPweb. com/Construction.

pendent Fiscal Management RFQ is on LAHSA’s website, lahsa.org/news?article=10752026-independentfiscal-managementrfq&ref=funding. On Aug. 13, a federal Judge ordered the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to restore funding for homelessness programs in Los Angeles County. Judge David O. Carter ruled that HUD’s suspension in June of $240 million for the LA Homeless Services Authority and remedial measures against the Los Angeles Continuum of Care weeks before grant deadlines was “arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law” under the Administrative Procedure Act. The court sided with LAHSA’s argument that the Trump administration was attempting to bypass local

planning and set funding priorities for the Los Angeles region violated clear legal requirements under the HEARTH Act, which places local homelessness strategy and prioritization with officials in regional communities through the continuum of care system. HUD Secretary Scott Turner posted on X that the Trump administration would “fight this legally,” adding that “The court ordered HUD to send tens of millions of dollars directly to LAHSA, an organization that has proven to be incompetent with YOUR tax dollars. The money that YOU worked hard to earn!” In another X post Friday, Turner said, “LAHSA is on notice — not another dime until they show the money actually helps people toward recovery and self-sufficiency. We’re putting results first.”

LAHSA reforms cial reporting tools and dashboards to improve visibility into operational performance; • "Strengthening invoice processing and monitoring procedures; • "Improving communication and guidance for contracted service providers; • "Working towards standardizing processes and increasing accountability across departments;" and • "Accelerating financial reconciliation and reporting to make data more accurate and timely." The audit report also identified several long-term opportunities for modernizing the agency's financial protocols. LAHSA officials said they are developing improved reporting tools to help management and staff track the agency's finances, serviceprovider payments and

funding activities in real time. The accounting upgrades are expected to reduce reliance on manual reporting, improve decision-making and increase transparency for funding providers, elected officials, LAHSA contractors and the public. “We have a clear roadmap for strengthening LAHSA's financial operations and improving the experience of the providers who deliver critical services throughout Los Angeles County,” O'Neill said. “We’re implementing substantial process improvements that will help us manage public resources more efficiently and effectively.” LAHSA also is seeking to hire a firm to help guide implementation of the KPMG's longer-term recommendations, including "systems integration, workflow redesign, automation, and financial operations modernization,"

according to the agency. The deadline for prospective accounting firms was June 26. "LAHSA administers significant public funding supporting homelessness programs and contracted services throughout the City of Los Angeles," according to the agency's "Request for Qualifications" document. "To support enhanced fiscal management, operational efficiency, accountability, and long-term financial sustainability, LAHSA seeks to engage an independent accounting firm with demonstrated expertise in governmental financial operations, accounting systems implementation, public-sector fiscal controls, operational stabilization, and embedded financial operations support services. "The selected contractor is expected to serve as an embedded operational

partner supporting the implementation of improved financial systems, strengthened accounting processes, enhanced cash management practices, improved payment processing workflows, and effective day-to-day fiscal administration." Criteria for choosing a firm include: • "Relevant governmental and operational accounting experience; • "Quality of implementation-oriented operational approach; • "Demonstrated cash management and AP/AR expertise; • "Staffing qualifications, embedded support capability, and executive financial leadership; • "Systems implementation and finance transformation capability;" and • "Cost proposal."
