California Assembly member Wendy Carrillo has introduced a bill that would provide some compensation to landowners displaced by the 1962 opening of Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.

As reported by Scripps News, under Assembly Bill 1950, if approved, original landowners and their descendants would be offered city-owned real estate at a comparable market value, or similar compensation. The bill would also require officials to conduct a report on the events leading to the displacement of residents, many representing the Chavez Ravine's largely Hispanic population at the time. The legislation would further require the construction of a memorial on or near the ravine to honor the residents displaced by the stadium's construction.
