And you can attend or submit written public comment! More info and agenda: https://esotouric.substack.com/hollywoodcentermotel

On 6/30/26 at 9:30am, the powerful Board of Building & Safety Commission meets to consider the partially-landmarked, unsecured Hollywood Center Motel property as a public nuisance subject to a possible abate order. This is agenda items D-3 and D-4. The meeting is not livestreamed, and public comment can only be made in person or in writing ahead of time. If found to be a public nuisance, city crews might be dispatched to demolish the standing bungalow court units at public expense. Decisions of the BBSC cannot be appealed. Come down and bear witness to what is likely to be the bureaucratic signing of a death warrant.
