La Crescenta residents cite fire evacuation concerns in battle against affordable housing project

Concerned residents and La Crescenta city leaders are urging Los Angeles County to take another look at a proposed five-story affordable housing site. They say Briggs Avenue and Foothill Boulevard offer only one way out, and with the proposed development, there would be a dangerous evacuation bottleneck and no safe way to escape danger. The neighborhood is in an area designated as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone by the state fire marshal. The proposed five-story apartment complex would replace an 80-year-old motel at the corner of Briggs Avenue and Foothill Boulevard. The development would include 66 units and potentially house hundreds of residents. Tatyana Esmaelian, a La Crescenta resident, said the location could create serious problems during a wildfire evacuation. “I see this as a disaster happening, where it’s a repeat of Palisades Fire meets Eaton Fire, where people will get gridlocked to come out,” Esmaelian said. Residents say the intersection is already a potential evacuation choke point. Above the proposed development are already hundreds of homes, with Briggs Avenue serving as a primary evacuation route. Chris Kilpatrick of the Crescenta Valley Town Council called the proposed location particularly problematic. “This is probably the worst place in the

Intense speculation adds drama to USC-Indiana football game

College football fans and USC fans noticed something very strange on Wednesday. Heading into USC's game against Indiana , the betting line for Saturday's huge Big Ten contest shifted several points in under an hour. Ryan Kartje of the Los Angeles Times noted this on X. Endless speculation greeted this very peculiar development. Some USC fans speculated that something is up with Jayden Maiava, arguing that's the only reason the line would move four points toward Indiana. Yet, on the injury report released for the game, Maiava did not appear on it. There was nothing on the initial injury report which would suggest that USC is at a significantly worse disadvantage against Indiana. Some people noted that Indiana quarterback Josh Hoover did not appear on the injury report, thinking that might be a reason for the line to jump several points in the Hoosiers' direction. The idea that Josh Hoover could play better with improved health is not totally out of the blue. However, Hoover has consistently underperformed this season, regardless of how healthy he has been. Why would Hoover suddenly play better now? Maybe the fact that Indiana gets a week off before playing USC, combined with Hoover's absence
