Oakland must do rightby hotel’s tenants
Re: “ California Hotel beset by disrepair, disrepute ” (Page A1, June 1).
I was appalled reading about the squalid, unsafe conditions that residents at the California Hotel are having to endure. This is just plain wrong.
East Bay Asian Local Development Corp. and the Oakland Housing Authority should be ashamed of themselves for allowing some of our most vulnerable community members to live this way. Everyone deserves to live in dignity.
I hope folks in Oakland speak out about this and loudly, that they hold those in power responsible and demand they make the changes needed so the California Hotel is a safe, livable place for the tenants who live there.
