Thank you. That was very helpful. If you switch the Google map to satellite view and then zoom out one, you see where the problem is. Near the actual church, there is a triangular lot at Truesdale and Roscoe, northwest of the main campus. THIS is the property Grace is apparently leasing from the city, not the main campus, according to the documents.
Seems specious to demand eviction over a section of parking but this is what happens when you get into bed with government.
Grace ought to just buy the lot if possible or do with less parking. Their sermons are housed on YouTube and probably streamed on their website.
I stream their sermons from time to time (did so today) and I also stream sermons from my former church in San Antonio even though I have moved out of the state.
This is a test of faith for the congregation. They aren’t alone. Other churches in Southern California are under attack too.
Yeah, thanks for that...the “Roscoe/Truesdale” lot is probably the main lot involved (owned by the county due to flood control “right of way”). But there is also a small “cleaver-shaped” section/lot along the flood channel right-of-way just West of the main church building. May or may not be included in the revoked lease agreement. I didn’t dig deep on that part.
P.S. I looked at the the county letter...there are 3 parcels/lots involved. The “Allott & Roscoe” lot too?). So it looks like they lose most of their parking if not reversed. Government sanctioned “spitefulness” is just crazy.
