Prefab - So Fab - at CA Boom Show & MOCA
Modernist Prefab homes and their architects will be at the CA Boom Design Show this weekend at the Santa Monica Airport's celebrity jet runway Barker Hanger to exhibit their designs and even take orders for your own home. These green-friendly houses are finally gaining notoriety as a stylish and sound alternative for today's home construction. The architectural elements of prefab homes are made off-site, oftentimes using recycled or sustainable materials such as bamboo, and delivered with little assembly required to the homeowner's site. The end result is a customized home building project that sees a reduced amount of construction waste, substantial materials that can withstand heavy transportation and installation, and the smallest environmental footprint a house can make. But, perhaps most of all, you'll have a cool looking house that's fit for celebrity neighborhoods and museums.
Council discusses rental inspections
How exhaustive should rental housing inspections be? Which properties will be inspected? Over the next several months, the City Council will grapple with those types of questions as it shapes the Rental Inspection Program."Do you want us in the back yard?" asked Community Development Director Joe Brandt during a Feb. 20 meeting, the second in a series, in which the council discussed a staff report on the inspection program.The report asked for council guidance on inspections ranging from the sidewalk to the back yard, from fences and gates to exterior walls, and inside to the plumbing and electrical boxes."If you are going to inspect, make it complete," said Mayor Donald Freitas.Council members want inspectors to check on things like weeds taller than 18 inches, junk, paint, swimming pools, stagnant water, potholes, broken boards and latch mechanisms, cracked sidewalks, loose toilets, unsafe cornices and lintels, chimneys and antennae not securely fastened to the roof, doors that aren’t rodent proof and more – in nine categories, each ending in "etc."A detailed checklist of more than 200 items from the county’s rental inspection program was included in the staff report.
