Endorsement: Heather Hutt for Los Angeles City Council District 10
LA TimesTwo years ago, Heather Hutt was appointed to the Los Angeles City Council representing District 10 as an interim replacement for Mark Ridley-Thomas, who had been removed from the council after being indicted on federal corruption charges. Her challenger is Grace Yoo, a trusts and estates lawyer with a history of activism in the district on various issues who has served as an L.A. City Commissioner, a neighborhood council member and executive director of the Korean American Coalition in Los Angeles. She says she wholeheartedly supports the creation of more affordable housing in her district but she doesn’t seem ready to push back against residents who don’t want it in their neighborhoods. The city desperately needs multi-unit affordable housing and it will never build enough of it if council members bend to NIMBY pressure.
