City May Move on Trailer Park
Citing slum conditions in the Sundown Trailer Park, Councilman Alex Padilla called Friday for the city to intervene.
Padilla said trailers in the park on San Fernando Road have no running water, electricity or heat and the area is infested with rats.
Padilla introduced a motion to have the park placed into a rent escrow account program that allows rent to be diverted by the city for repairs and maintenance. He asked the Housing Department to explore letting tenants of the park participate in the city’s homeownership assistance programs.
