Los Angeles County Releases Draft $598.4M Homeless Initiative Funding Recommendations for FY 2023-24

 

After extensive community and stakeholder engagement, the Los Angeles County Homeless Initiative shared its $598.4 million draft funding recommendations for fiscal year 2023-24.


It is the first set of funding recommendations to reflect the County’s New Framework to End Homelessness, approved by the Board of Supervisors earlier this year. This approach focuses on:


  • Increasing permanent housing placements
  • Improving flow through the rehousing system, moving people from street to housing more effectively
  • Serving people with complex challenges who face barriers exiting homelessness
  • Expanding collaborative partnerships with cities and Councils of Government


Members of the public are invited to review the funding recommendations and provide feedback during the public comment period through November 22.

Update on Del Mar Sewer Project


Our Public Works team is deep into the construction phase of the sewer main line upgrade project on Del Mar Avenue, near Valley Boulevard. We are increasing the size of our sewer main line from 12” to 15” and installing new manholes to properly convey the higher volume of sewage that flows at that location. Construction should wrap up in December/January and we will be paving Del Mar Avenue in that vicinity shortly afterwards.
