Politics: Lawmaker Urges OK of Home-Based Businesses Countywide
Citing disruptions caused by the earthquake, Assemblywoman Debra Bowen (D-Marina del Rey) is pushing legislation that would allow home-based businesses to be licensed in Los Angeles County.
The effort is aimed primarily at the city of Los Angeles, which does not issue business licenses to people who want to work out of their homes. Bowen spokesman Evan Goldberg said the proposed law would not affect 77 of the county’s 88 cities, which already permit some types of home-based businesses.
