Los Angeles County and city will spend billions of dollars to provide more housing and support services for homeless people under a lawsuit settlement approved by a federal judge.
U.S. District Judge David Carter had rejected earlier settlement proposals offering far fewer beds.
The new agreement sets up a commitment to provide hundreds of new beds each year through 2026 but doesn’t include specifics on funding, although earlier this year the county and city both passed budgets that together include some $1.9 billion to fight homelessness. Now, both governments will partner in an effort that “stands to help more unhoused Angelenos in the city come inside and receive care,” Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said in a statement.
