Briefed on this a couple weeks ago, and I have Dodger Stadium in my district, so I want to make sure I get through them. Um, what happens if LA28 dissolves before costs incurred by the city are paid?Eunisses HernandezCouncil member · City Council · Aug 12, 2026Open the meeting at 3:32:18

2:05:53Homelessness and LAHSAColleagues, the structure of our regional homelessness response is changing. While we continue to rely on county departments for critical public health, mental health, and substance use services, the county has moved their funded programs and contracts previously administered through LAHSA into their new Department of Homelessness Services and Housing.

2:05:56Homelessness and LAHSAColleagues, 3 months ago I voted against the contracts related to the Measure ULA Eviction Defense Fund and homelessness prevention programs because I did not believe the level of transparency and accountability the city should require when distributing public funds had been met.
