What this means

The committee approved actions that help finance and move forward several affordable and supportive housing projects, which can make more housing available or preserve affordability in the named locations. A mayoral appointment to the United to House LA oversight committee was confirmed and one appointment was noted; a city contract amendment for wage‑compliance services and a transfer of an income‑support program for rent‑burdened seniors and people with disabilities were also approved. Two items—adjusting seasonal shelter bed rates and proposals to create a city Continuum of Care and homelessness governance structure—were continued, so no final decisions were made on those yet.
