Residents Form One of Area’s First Homeowner Associations
- Share via
A new homeowner association in Boyle Heights elected officers Saturday, making it one of the first residents groups on the Eastside.
The Boyle Heights Resident Homeowners Assn. began meeting about two months ago to participate in decisions about the neighborhood. About 60 families have joined, and organizers said they hope to involve hundreds of people. “It’s a foreign, foreign concept for a lot of people,” said Father John Moretta, pastor at Resurrection Church in Boyle Heights where the group meets. “A lot of people come from countries where homeowners associations don’t exist. It’s a matter of educating them that they can participate.”
Meetings are held at 10 a.m. on the first and third Saturdays of the month at 3324 E. Opal St. Information: (213) 268-1141.
