L.A. Mayor Karen Bass has issued an emergency executive order to expedite rebuilding efforts in the Pacific Palisades by waiving permit and plan checks fees for homes affected by wildfires. This initiative relies on City Council approval and aims to alleviate bottlenecks in the rebuilding process, allowing homeowners to self-certify plans with qualified architects. The city is also employing artificial intelligence in plan compliance checks. Additionally, Bass emphasized urban development projects to beautify the city ahead of the 2028 Olympics and FIFA World Cup, including key infrastructure and public art initiatives.
On Friday, L.A. Mayor Karen Bass issued an emergency executive order aimed at accelerating rebuilding in the Pacific Palisades by doing away with permit and plan check fees.
If the initiatives are successful, they could be rolled out citywide, Bass said, highlighting the importance of expediting rebuilding efforts in Los Angeles.
Sprucing up Los Angeles ahead of the 2028 Olympics and next year's FIFA World Cup was also on this week's State of the City agenda.
We want people not just to see our stadiums, Bass said. We want them to see the real L.A.
