Evicted Tenants Struggle With Relocation Woes

Burbank tenants have begun to move out of the city after a recent surge of no-fault evictions in Burbank, and gave many displaced residents just 60 days to find new accommodations. Others say they are unsure they will be able to leave given the strict time constraint, risking unlawful detainer lawsuits. “My family and I were very scared,” said Oswaldo Martinez, a former 14-year Burbank tenant who recently relocated after receiving a 60-day notice to quit. “We did not expect an eviction notice, and it has caused us a lot of problems.” Martinez is the first tenant to vacate the Maui apartments on West Olive Avenue after nine tenants in the building were notified that they would be forced out for renovations.
