Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti announced on Wednesday that he is not here for the parties amid the global pandemic, and he will authorize the city to cut off utility service to homes or businesses where the large gatherings are hosted.
Starting Friday,” the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power will cut off water and power service in “egregious” cases where unpermitted large parties and gatherings take place,” according to CBS Los Angeles.
Prior to Garcetti’s announcement, City Councilman David Ryu announced a new motion that penalizes property owners who hold large gatherings in violation of public health orders and the city’s party house ordinance, which became law in 2018.
