Lineage Cleanup Misses Deadline | San Diego News

City officials are sounding the alarm as Lineage risks missing a 45-day deadline to clean up millions of pounds of rotting food from a burned warehouse in Boyle Heights, with residents already suffering from toxic fumes, pests, and constant truck traffic for nearly two months. Councilmember Ysabel Jurado is demanding accountability, insisting that “almost done” won’t cut it when public health is at stake — even if cleanup is 93% complete. The company, facing fines and mounting pressure, has pledged up to $100 million for cleanup while also seeking to rebuild the warehouse, a move critics say prioritizes profit over people. Schools are distributing masks, air monitors are deployed, and residents report headaches and nausea — turning this into a crisis of daily life and trust. A community forum is underway as tensions rise over accountability, responsibility for the fire, and whether the city will enforce consequences or let corporate interests take precedence.
