Home Owners/Developers Overturn School Facilities Fee Assessment

In June, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Ralph Dau ruled that the LAUSD failed to meet lawful requirements in applying Alternative School Facilities Fees, Level Two, last year. The plaintiff in the case was the Coalition for Affordable Housing, a coalition of homeowners and housing developers, represented by Pam Schmidt of Jeffer, Mangels, Butler & Marmaro LLP. TPR is pleased to present this interview with Pam Schmidt in which she discusses the ruling and its impact on housing development in Los Angeles.
