ParticipantThis is more related to the rent skimming discussions. It’s a problem that needs a good legal recommended course of action because I suspect many renters are going to find themselves in a situation where their landlord goes to default and/or goes to foreclosure.
If the landlord is in default, but not rent skimming, your withholding rent could result in their being forced into foreclosure. At the same time, I understand the need to have you security deposit and any outstanding funds in escrow so that you do not lose them if the landlord screws it up.
In the meantime, find a local resource like Tenants Legal Center to get the scoop. I have no experience with them but it seems like a place to start.
Maybe we can use the power of Piggington to get the Attorney to comment on general guidelines for such a situation.

ParticipantThat’s the problem with digital. When in doubt, take the shot. There’s no cost to taking 1000 pictures on a one week vacation. Before, people would debate if the shot was worth it and then wait and take one shot of the sunset.
Now, you take 40 in the justification that you’ll sort out and keep the best one.

ParticipantActually, the tell tale stereo typical 909 image:
” “We’re not surprised. We had a feeling it was coming,” said Varsha Shah.
They found out which way the wind was blowing about a year ago when several families moved into some of the homes and never bothered to water the grass or pick up beer cans”
and “For the Gordons and Taylors, these are the people who ruined the neighborhood by using their homes like revolving night clubs, cramming cars into the cul de sacs and threatening neighbors who complained.
The Corona Police Department said it was called about neighborhood disturbances on Towne Square’s Summerset St., where the Shahs live, 35 times in 2006.
”Okay, a street with 10 homes generates 3 calls a month. The next street over generated 2 calls per month. Between the two streets, about 20 homes, they called more tahn once a week!

ParticipantI think the city ordinances should cover the important aspects like, cutting lawns, derelict vehicles, etc.
There in lies the problem. The cities have abdicated their responsibility for enforcing such ordinances and in many cases have abandoned even making such ordinances. Lob in rights groups and everything turns into a legal battle for the city.
In such, a private-government organization is formed that then lacks the rigorous oversite.

ParticipantThat was the idiot councilman Alcaron a week or two ago. Here’s the story
“Alarcon, however, said the $100 million Affordable Housing Trust Fund, seemed a logical source of funding for his proposal. He had proposed taking $5 million from the fund for the effort.”
…
“Alarcon’s proposal called for making low-interest loans of up to $10,000 each to help people caught in the bind resulting from subprime mortgages and a drop in the housing market”So basically a max of 500 homes, and I doubt $10,000 will do more than kick the can three months down the road. That’s a half of a month of homes. In July, LA county had 1074 foreclosures.
As I recall that clown’s comments on the morning news, he literally said something along the lines of ‘I know it won’t make a difference, but it’s about making a statement to the people’.
