Aerial Views of property —— A fire at an abandoned Studio City property has sparked criticism of Los Angeles city officials after neighbors said they had complained about the site for years. The Babcock Avenue property had reportedly accumulated trash and overgrown vegetation and become the site of a homeless encampment.
Following the fire, Mayor Karen Bass ordered city departments to investigate and clear the property. The incident has also led to a dispute between Bass and Councilmember Nithya Raman over why action wasn’t taken sooner, with Raman saying her office had repeatedly raised concerns about the property with city agencies and the mayor’s office.
