The Los Angeles City Council unanimously approved a motion to protect the iconic stuffed donkey, 'El Burro,' a landmark of Olvera Street, after the owners faced eviction due to leasing contract issues. The motion aims to add the owners' names, Richard Hernandez Chase and Patricia Josefina Hernandez, to the lease, highlighting the historical and cultural significance of El Pueblo de Los Angeles. Councilman Kevin de León led the effort, emphasizing the importance of upholding the area's integrity. Despite complexities in the leasing process and potential clerical errors, the City Council's decision reflects a commitment to preserving legacy businesses and community heritage.
