ordinance

“Tens of thousands of Los Angeles voters agreed that the economic toll of the ordinance will extend far beyond the hospitality sector,” the group said in a statement.

On Aug. 20, the City Council voted 13 to 1 to request that city staffers draft a single stairway ordinance.

In the absence of regulation, last week the Orange County Board of Supervisors passed an ordinance prohibiting the sale, distribution or possession of synthetic kratom products in any form in the county.

The council passed the ordinance, which left single-family zones largely untouched after pushback from homeowners groups, a week before a state deadline for the city to have a housing plan in place.

These rates are similar to those set by the city of L.A.’s minimum wage ordinance for hotel workers.
