A city commission ordered the current owners of La Golondrina Cafe on Olvera Street to pay over $242,000 in back rent and fees in the next 30 days or leave.
That’s rough, I haven’t been there for awhile but it is a staple of the community and super delicious. Seems unfair to expect renters to pay rent when they can’t open due to plumbing issues in a 100+ year old historic building. Isn’t it pretty standard in commercial renting to have something in the agreement to the effect of “the premises must be operable”? When I used to rent, if the place needed to be vacated for some reason, I wasn’t on the hook for rent those days. I don’t know, just sad news I guess.
