AND THERE IT IS: California Governor Gavin Newsom Announces Funding for New ‘Multifamily Rental Housing’ After LA Wildfires
This week, we learned that less than 100 building permits have been issued in Los Angeles, six months after the destructive wildfires that destroyed entire neighborhoods like the Pacific Palisades.
Now California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced $101 million in funding for new ‘multifamily rental housing’ as a solution for housing displaced residents in the area. It almost seems like this was the goal all along.

Who could have predicted such a thing?
Governor Newsom commits $101 million to jumpstart critical rebuilding efforts after LA Fires
Los Angeles, California – Six months after the LA Fires, Governor Gavin Newsom and the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) announced the release of $101 million to help rapidly rebuild critically needed, affordable multifamily rental housing in the fire-devastated Los Angeles region. Thousands of families are still displaced by the wildfires that raged through the Greater Los Angeles Region in January 2025, placing an incredible strain on an already tight rental market.
Tomiquia Moss, Secretary of the California Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency: “The State’s special Multifamily Finance Super NOFA will galvanize the collective public-private response to the wildfires in Los Angeles County, expediting and expanding opportunities to build affordable housing for low-income residents. By prioritizing affordable housing projects that are ready to go, these funds will accelerate household stability, climate and health outcomes in communities.”
No one seems very surprised by this.
So the truth is coming out. @GavinNewsom who has a lot of blame for the SoCal fires is basically saying, he is going to steal tax payers money to build ghettos that people HE displaced can “Rent”. It’s obviously a money grab folks. Sad. This guy has got to go. https://t.co/wYWq0OkvPk

People were calling this immediately after the fires and others called them conspiracy theories.
Land will be used for multi-family rental units.
Not for the homeowners that lost everything.
Multi-family units. “Affordable” https://t.co/ZhCjdSPDss— Kel in Cali (@KinCali1) July 9, 2025
That single family home you had in the Palisades is now an apartment building you make too much money to qualify to live in.

People just want to rebuild their homes. No one asked for multi-family apartment buildings.
