1st & Soto: E.L.A.C.C. Notice of Evictions Protests, part 1

Part 1, Further Backstory
 
     It can most definitely be said that i am biased.  Fuck yeah i am.  It can be said that i am biased about the East L.A. Community Corporation.  Which i am.  But because they have done SOME good in the neighborhood, i am at least willing to give them a case-by-case situation.  In my experience since their inception they brought hope to the community and ultimately let the community down time and time again.

     This is the latest case.  The Lorena project is moving forward despite the recommendation against it by the Boyle Heights PLUC.  It was passed by the BHNC. 

     The protest had been scheduled for at least two weeks now.  Though the details weren't really "out there" as much as i would have liked.  Some times i guess, people try to keep it a bit hushed as to not be shut down before it gets started.  But i know none of those details.

What i do know is that ELACC came to the PLUC [on April 9th]:
Audio, cue to ~30m45s
VI.Discussion and possible action regarding the Density Bonus and Site Plan Review (DB) application #DIR-2014-4670-DB and Environmental Assessment application #ENV-2014-4671-EAF[15 Minutes]
a.Address:
2423 East 1st Street,
Los Angeles, CA 90033
b.Applicant: Eric Lieberman
c.Demolition of existing dwellings and construction of new 5-story; 31 Unit Apartment Building

They were rejected. Unanimously.  Well for the record.  It was Tabled pending further requested information.  So this did not, or should not have gone forward.  It never made it out of the Boyle Heights PLUC.  ELACC never came back to the PLUC regarding this situation.
The vote took place at marker: ~01h33m
The motion was made by Carlos Montes @~ the 1h05m [mark]
Seconded by Rafael Chagoya

This is why i recording shit.  'Cause i don't remember everything.  Vague memories.  And i have no other records of ELACC coming back to the PLUC. But, there have been two voices that i noted that

May 14th, Jose Camacho [a neighbor to the residents involved] made a general public comment [@ about 11 minutes] asking for ELACC to provide more information regarding the project.
&
Sept 8th, Carlos Montes, made a comment as a resident at this past meeting [@ about 27m45s] asking to address April 9th tabled item. To consider placing the subject on next month's agenda.


That being said. I may need to spli[t] this in to two posts.
