The committee voted to study the potential impact of a new county-level homelessness department on the City’s existing contracts with LAHSA and to develop pathways the City could use to coordinate services, share data, and run a regional response if LAHSA does not participate.

The motion passed in committee by a 3–0 vote with two members absent.
