If you’ve ever wanted to play Superman on Hollywood Boulevard…you may need a pass to do that–in the near future.
That’s because the LA City Council has asked the City Attorney’s Office to write rules that would require that street performers obtain daily permits…the LAPD wants the number set at 20. Kerry Morrison…the Executive Director of the Hollywood Property Owners Alliance..says the rules would be aimed at the so called “bad apples” among street performers and vendors…who are aggressive to tourists…especially foreigners.
“We’ve seen those people in particular especially preyed upon”.
According to a recent study, roughly a fifth of Hollywood visitors said they had unpleasant experiences with solicitors.
