ERSNews has learned that Getty House, the official residence of the Mayor of Los Angeles was scheduled to get an upgrade to enhance security of the property. The residence was to have an anti vehicle system installed such as the one pictured below to thwart any potential car or trucks that may want to come onto the property.

ERS has not determined exactly what system was to be installed, but has confirmed some kind of fixed system was going in.

Calls by ERSNews to the Mayors office, the LAPD and inquires to the Getty House Foundation, that runs the house in conjunction with the City of Los Angeles were not returned. When ERSNews called the LAPD office that handles the Mayor's security we were referred to the Mayor's Office. Calls to the Mayor's office referred us back to the LAPD. As usual our calls were not returned.

Work on the system was due to start early this week. ERSNews has learned when the crew arrived to work on the installation on Tuesday (8/14/07) the work was mysteriously halted at the residence.

Just who was in charge of the project and whos was going paying for is still unknown. What is certain is that work was stopped on this project right after ERSNews made queries.

The current resident of Getty Houses, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, has been fending off reporters over his affair with Telemundo reporter Mirthala Salinas over the past month.
