Marketed controversially as the “Mansion Tax\,” Measure ULA taxes all real property transactions valued over $5 million\, both commercial and residential\, with very few exceptions. The measure is anticipated to generate hundreds of millions or even one billion dollars annually that will be deposited in a special trust fund\, known as the “House LA Fund\,” intended to be used to subsidize housing\, preserve affordable housing\, prevent homelessness\, and guarantee counsel to tenants in eviction court. \nDespite the urgency and wide consensus of LA’s housing crisis\, some pro-housing advocates and experts question if a transfer tax or the ultimate form of Measure ULA was the right vehicle to support affordable housing and homelessness initiatives. Some industry experts worry that with limited exemptions Measure ULA will result in a halt of the residential and commercial purchase and sale market and actually hinder housing production in the City of Los Angeles. Some Measure ULA opponents are fighting the passage with a lawsuit to strike ULA down\, arguing it violates California’s Prop 13\, and through a proposed state ballot initiative to invalidate the law. \nOn the other hand\, implementation of ULA is not fully formed and there is an important opportunity for stakeholders to shape the process. Was ULA drafted as housing advocates expected\, or will there be unintended consequences including for new developments? And what’s the outlook for the pending lawsuit\, prospective ballot initiative\, and ULA implementation? Join us to discuss these questions and more. \nPanelists to be announced shortly. \nRegistration Fees:\n$50 Members\n$65 Non-Members\n$10 Student Members & Retired Members\n$15 Student Non-Members & Retired Non-Members \nPre-registration closes on Wednesday\, March 22nd\, at 4:00 PM.  After Wednesday\, March 22nd\, onsite registration will be available at the cost of an additional $10.  No refunds or credits will be provided after this day. \n
