Housing and Homelessness Committee - Regular Meeting

Jurado, si, aqui. Lumenfield, present. Hutt, present. McCosker, here. Five members present and in a quorum, Mr. President. Very well, then we have a special agenda. And also a regular agenda. They're very full. We're going to try to do what we can. I just want to highlight one thing. um um Very good. So I want to encourage us to do two things today. The first is to have a special meeting. There's an article like the new TLS program, which is essential for our Alliance goals. Y quiero terminar con eso primero y luego vamos con esa reunión regular donde vamos a escuchar nuestros artículos regulares, presentaciones sobre unos cambios grandes en cuanto a nuestro sistema del Comité de Vivienda, lo cual es importante. Hay informes que aún estamos esperando, pero entre esta reunión y la próxima reunión, We need to learn a lot about how to restructure this system. The CLA is producing this, and then we'll be able to make an informed decision after evaluating all of our options. And today, we're going to do what we can today, based on the order of operations that we need, see our TLS contract, and then follow up with the government report. Presidenta, quiere hacer receso de la reunión regular? Vamos a hacer comentario para la reunión regular y luego vamos a invitar a Consejera Rodriguez. to give her the floor. We need to read the instructions for the public comment before or after she speaks. Go ahead. Thank you. For those who are giving public comment, when it is your turn to speak, please mention what point in the agenda you want to speak. You will have one minute per article and two in total. Members of the public who have the opportunity to speak for one minute for the general public comment, Durante ese entonces, pueden hablar sobre artículos no agendadas bajo la jurisdicción de este comité. Les vamos a avisar cuando se les ha acabado el tiempo. Cuando hablan sobre un artículo en la agenda, deben de hablar sobre ese artículo. Queremos escuchar a cuantos comentaristas se pueda. Si es que no nos podemos dar cuenta si está hablando sobre el artículo o si se desvía, tendrán una amenazación breve de mi parte o la Presidenta. Y en ese entonces, si se vuelve a desviar, Gracias, colegas. So whatever started programming these motions today, I am grateful that we are here for the purpose of precedents. I want to share in particular for those who may be new to this conversation, it was two years ago, March of 2024, that I introduced the motion to consider the centralization of our work around people with disabilities with a dedicated department, and that was Article 8 on today's agenda. I have served in this committee for seven years, and based on my internal deliberations and conversations with our municipal legislative panel, I have determined that it will be the council to have a comprehensive conversation and analyze the benefits and risks of a new government structure. My report based on the government took 10 months since March of 2024. When I introduced that motion, when I presented that motion, it was two years ago, it took 10 months to create that report. And since then, The issue surrounding the governmental structure of our services for helpless people has only gotten more complicated. We have seen that the county has withdrawn from LAHSA and established its own housing department. It's important because we need to get to the center of the problem to understand and establish exactly what we want to fix before we authorize changes to the system. that perhaps we are not clear who is directing the work that is being done. However, instead of having a robust conversation of this report, a direction was subsequently put after that report was established within the budget, which was a direction to move forward with the creation of a meeting of homeless people in the housing department that was made without a police discussion. a map for implementation and surprise the departments involved, who are all part of this work. And at this time, the board has not yet had a multi-annual plan, nor a goal that is focused on governance. The report before you today, which I would like you to help guide us in this conversation right now, is outdated. But the frustration and the reason we're having these conversations remains the same. We still have a system . . . in fiscal 26-27 for a plan for the LHD Disabled People's Council, which includes the following. Staff in a police team, time to bring contracts and management to the city, how the department will work with a new policy team, departmental de parte del condado y la ASA un tiempo para administrar nuestra propia cuenta de personas desamparadas, gestión de nuestra cantidad de camas disponibles, cómo hacer equipos de alcanzo y eliminar la duplicación de equipos que ahorita están contratados en múltiples niveles en nuestra estructura gubernamental desde a . . . INSIDE SAFE. There are many pieces that are moving, but we don't have much control over who is giving the authority and instruction on how all of this works together. We have a system in different pieces, but in a clear direction. Mientras que estamos teniendo esa conversación y sé que hay múltiples mociones que se han presentado para arreglar estas inquietudes, todavía estamos con una organización que no funciona, llamada LASA, y aunque el condado pidió que se quedaran en esa organización, ellos se han disminuido. and we are still in that situation, we don't have better results. And that's not just a matter of money, but it's a failure of leadership. And we have an obligation to have a conversation about all of these concerns in an effective way, with a plan of how to do it. Hemos gastado tiempo precioso. Y si a ustedes les importa la gente que se está quedando en las calles, entonces quieren actuar de manera decisiva para crear un mapa para salir de esta crisis. Señor Blumenfield, como usted sabe, quítenme de este ciclo. Comenzó hace cinco años. Sabemos dónde están los asuntos y no podemos estar aquí esperando que eso se repare por sí mismo. Ya no podemos estar aquí indecisos. Necesitamos tomar decisiones fuertes para cambiar ese sistema. Debemos actuar. Debemos actuar ahora. Pero debemos de tener una conversación comprensiva sobre todos los piezas funcionarias de cómo esto se va a implementar antes de dar instrucciones a departamentos para cambiar, redirigir su equipo y moverlos de un puesto al otro. Las personas viviendo en las calles y las personas de esa ciudad merecen mejor, en especial cuando están pagando con sus impuestos, para hacer algo sobre esa crisis en nuestras calles. Y lo que yo quiero ver, y sé que esto es una pieza de muchas conversaciones, And for any reason that we are doing this right now, I am happy that we are doing it. But let's make sure that we make decisions in a deliberate way with the purpose that this institution can do it in a sustainable way and in a way that is not politically Thank you, Mr. Rodriguez. And the centralization, I think, of these services, this committee has been very excited to see that this is centralized. And in fact, I spoke with Blumenfield about a department of homeless people, and I want to see any way to centralize the challenge in the city. And I think we don't have a lot of to help guide us. And if we need this type of experience to move forward with that, but if we need to be able to plan these kinds of big transitions and make these changes, I welcome this discussion. And I'm excited to see what I can get from this committee. And just to clarify, there are a lot of different parts is not just about centralizing. It's about taking advantage of what the county has given us. It's about doing something about the piece of the alliance. But when you see where the issues or problems are, you'll know how to correct them. And I think that's where we have a lot of conversations in different parts that have put us in this indecisive position. And we have to act right now. de manera más clara y con mejor dirección. Y no es solo a la dirección de nada más una decisión, lo cual se hace en el presupuesto. for me, that caused us more challenges. Because we need to ensure that not even we understand the plan, and it's our duty to ensure that the people understand the plan, and the plan was adopted. So we have the duty to create the policy, adopt it as an advice, and then act in the budget conversation. But right now, and other issues, including the Alliance case, we have to take all of those pieces and divide them one by one and plan our attack. So I look forward to being part of this conversation because I've been on this committee for seven years. Thank you. Entonces, vamos a seguir adelante con comentario público para la reunión regular. Cualquier persona que quiera dar un comentario, por favor, fórmense. ¿Alguien se ha ingresado para hablar? ¿Armida? ¿Alguien? OK, parece que no hay comentario público. Hay un comentarista. Bienvenido, Adam. In fact, yes, I did sign up. No problem. Welcome. I think it's important for that commission and for all of you support ULA because we voted for this. And I'm really here to thank the commission and also other city staff who are doing their job. to give the funds to ULA to the people who are trying to do the right thing in this city and not necessarily the owners like Leo Pstonikoff who are owners of dozens of buildings in Skid Row with terrible conditions and trying to buy new buildings. I'm glad to see that that's not happening. I'm going to continue with a general public comment.

Thank you to

I'm glad I was able to listen to Rodríguez today. I understand the intention of trying to centralize this to a city department, but it's about implementation. If we're talking about transparency, the money that is spent, and also how these services are implemented, what that aspirational infrastructure doesn't want to be transparent to the public, and more importantly, people living on the street, What the infrastructure doesn't do, it tells the Angelinos how the police continues to have more tools and more funds, not to fight against crime, but to be workers at their disposal. An officer of the Central Division in Skate Row, speaking in the Thank you. What article would you like to talk about? It's going to be general. All right. You have one minute. ANGELINA TORRES- ANGELINA TORRES- The first is that many participants do not have transportation, they do not have fixed schedules, they do not have someone to take care of their children, and many of them think that they are going to leave in person, and many times that prevents people from having assistance. If we really want to prevent the lack of housing, the eviction, we have to expand support. You had mentioned the police team. Muchas gracias. Otro comentarista. Bueno, buenísimo. Podemos ahora levantar la sesión para la regular y

Let's do the special. Yes, Mrs. President. The committee can now stand up. And now we can get ready to start the special. Very good. Mrs. President, Rahman here. Councilor Gerardo. Councilor Blumenfield present. Councilor. Thank you very much. So for the special meeting, we have four issues on the agenda. A TEFRA resolution for a project in District 13-2. The municipal prosecutor's report responding to a request from this council a few weeks ago. The adjustment of RSL-3. It is the report of the HD, redesign of software, responding to the concerns that this committee raised, having a group of suitable units to rent. A report for this, how we can facilitate the achievements of the ends of the alliance. Item number four is a motion to execute a contract with the mission hub to implement a resolution in the camp for a subsidy for the San Fernando Osborne program in District 7. We open public comment for the special now. If anyone wants to speak, if you can go to the right part there. In the instructions again, for the people giving public comment, when you have the opportunity to speak, indicate on which topics of the agenda you want to speak. You will have one minute per topic, up to two minutes in total. The members of the public can also speak for up to one minute for general public comment. Before the general public comment, the members of the public can speak on the last notes of the agenda that have to do with the housing committee. We will inform you when their time is up. When they talk to us about the topics of the agenda, you must focus. We want to go through as many speakers as possible. If he doesn't focus on the subject, we can't determine if he is focused on the subject. We will give him a brief warning. He should focus immediately and not do it, or if he deviates from the subject, he will lose the rest of his time to speak. We will continue with the next commentator. Thank you. Very good. You, Mr. Ramos, are very welcome. The second subject, José Ramos, for... Session del departamento de Gran Los Angeles una fecha del 2 de febrero va a causar problemas con los alquileres con la fórmula existente desde el 1 de julio de 2025. Un minuto, gracias. Quiero afirmar en diciembre de 2025 se ha valido hasta el 30 de julio de 2026 en particular dañar inquilinos proveedores en el programa que no han tratado con dichos cambios One date will call into question all the notifications in compliance with section 8, which requires anticipation of 7 days. Another date will call into question all the legal notifications in compliance with the existing law, which requires 30 days of notification and a date of February 2. We encourage the Committee to reject the ordinance and allow the date of July 1 to remain or choose a date for the implementation of the RSO formula, at least 60 days from when it was approved by the Municipal Council to allow compliance with section 8. Thank you for your time. Thank you very much. Any other commentators? Well, we can close public comment for the special meeting. And colleagues, do you have any questions or concerns? I just want to hear topic number three. But if there are questions for the others, I think the question that the commentator announced is that it is not a retroactive ordinance. But if there are questions about that. Well, the municipal prosecutor, if there is someone here, the municipal prosecutor. Yes, unfortunately I am not familiar with this issue of the agenda. Well, let's start with this and vote with the others in a moment. Can I read it for the act? Yes. Issue number three is a report from the housing department with the redesign and the alliance. Programma de subsidio modificando el programa de acuerdo resolución entre la ciudad de Los Angeles y la autoridad de servicios para gente sin vivienda para coincidir con el programa rediseñado y los asuntos relacionados con tal. Tenemos empleados del departamento de vivienda y consultantes de HR&A, colegas, como presentación breve. Cuando ponemos adelante para el programa TLS, que va a llegar con los fines de alianza, parte del problema en esto es cómo vamos a encontrar las unidades para cumplir con esto, que todas las personas, 2,000 también, van a tener un apartamento como esto. Our employees took the question very seriously, and this is their proposal in response to that. If you want to know one of the challenges, we are talking about total governance in the city. We have limited employees to work on the issues. We have not hired a person for the office yet. with additional experience for the city and our existing employees are trying to reach the current obligations in a very fragmented environment. Increasingly, we need more capacity and we don't have enough capacity to face this now I want to talk more generally about the government now because looking at this program, trying to see how to supervise it and that it meets all the objectives, it is taking a long time for the employees and the capacity and we are limited in everything that the system can face now and the demands of the system are very real. los mandatos de las Cortes. Entonces, ahora me refiero a los consultantes. Muchas gracias. Buenas tardes, miembros. Jose Kelly Hardy, directora de alcance estratégico y póliza en el departamento de vivienda con mis colegas Regina Alcazar y Greg Spiegel de la unidad de estudios de póliza en el último año. The HRNA advisors were a consulting service to support LHD, CAO and the housing shortage strategy committee to monitor and analyze performance in the homeless system and the program limited by subsidies and for interviews and data analysis done by HRNA. They proposed a redesign of the program with the goal of improving the results and ensuring compliance with the agreement of resolution of alliances, helping 66% of the homeless for June 27. This is what the TLS program is going to be called, Time Limited Subsidies. have communicated with several departments such as the service providers that provide case management for participants, finding solutions that have been presented at previous meetings in the housing shortage strategy committee, incorporating comments that were reflected in a previous CAO report. Reflected in the recommendations before you, The IHT supports the analysis and recommendations for the redesign of the program. From here, to talk about that new design, I now turn to Sarah Soule from HRNA. Thank you very much, Kelly. Good afternoon, members of the committee. I am Sarah Soule, an ally and HRNA advisor, excited about the determinations and recommendations of the last six months to support the redesign. As Kelly mentioned, Estas recomendaciones se fundamentan en una serie de grupos de concentración que comenzamos el verano pasado hablando con varios proveedores en el programa TLS sobre desafíos de implementos y sus ideas para fortalecer el diseño del programa. Tuvimos conversaciones significativas con administradores también. Hablamos aprendiendo y planificando con las casas para el programa TLS. Hablamos con expertos sobre alojamiento y adquisición de unidades, estudio en el modelo TLS, y también acumulamos y analizamos y monitoreamos datos extensivos para el modelo TLS. También la presentación que les voy a dar hoy es el resultado de reuniones de coordinación con la LHD, CAO y LASA. Y esto está deseado ser una propuesta aliada que va a apoyar Implementos efectivos del programa TLS de la ciudad. Esto responde a tres solicitudes que oímos. El primero, un poco más detallado de por qué el programa se diseña así como es y cómo va a fortalecer el implemento. El segundo es cómo vamos a tener suficientes unidades para expedir el proceso de alquiler para que la gente pueda entrar rápido. Y el tercero, It is a policy of prioritization to select participants for the city program. So we believe that there are opportunities to meet with the commitments of the city alliance to rent 2,000 houses in investment in the program limited by subsidies. to support permanent housing results for all participants. The existing Tiales program already has strong results. Approximately 70% of residents can sustain permanent housing. But we believe that it is possible to help them access more permanent housing. The current model It has a lot to do with the people who are eligible, moving to permanent housing. What we want to do is to support more houses and to access more adequate housing, to access shared housing, to have it for lease or to access housing, whatever it is. We also want to create new capacity for intermediate housing I'm going to tell you a little more about this proposal. And we want to refine a new model that we think can be used for other housing programs, because the moment has been a challenge in the different investments. First, some objectives for the redesign here. So that the Tieles program works well, there have to be three things. Tiene que tener pago de alquiler a tiempo. Sería agrupado con información fuerte de alquiler y unidades que cumplen con los estándares de calidad y la habilidad de ayudar a la gente a mudar a esos temprano. La ciudad finanza aproximadamente 15% de las camas de TLS y estuvimos monitoreando el éxito de ese programa en totalidad. Y hubo tres, por lo menos tres desafíos con el modelo actual. Se puede interrumpir aquí. Yo quiero decir también que El camino a monitorear el programa existente de TLS usa los indicadores de 36 desempeños que aprobaron el año pasado y la esperanza es que eventualmente es el trabajo que la oficina va a hacer. Idealmente estamos usando estos datos para diseñar los programas mejor y para tomar mejores decisiones para usar los dólares donde se pueden utilizar mejor. Entonces quería ver que in the connections between this presentation and the work that this committee did. We have heard from suppliers, we have seen in the data, we have heard from administrators that there is insufficient case management. Some suppliers have reported that because chronic vacancies that have casos muy altos, demasiados casos y que no tienen suficientes herramientas para ayudar a construir ingresos o navegar el paisaje complicado. Y también hay datos insuficientes y reportaje, algo que no podemos arreglar y dificultar identificando unidades razonables para que pueda traer más enlis. Déjeme proveer más detalles aún. One of the things that we have heard from the beginning of the suppliers is that this program has been reinforced and that we have monitored it in the last few months and that the program is currently serving three different populations. But currently there is no strategy. There are participants in the program who can build income and can sustain housing on their own after completing the program. The participants are limited to income are going to need subsidized housing after completing the program and there are participants who are going to need intensive services for the future to come. Another thing that we hear very clearly is this lack of resources and tools to find employment and increase income and plan for shared housing and navigate the process of applying Entonces, así como menciona la concejala, estos son datos que hemos estado mirando para la ciudad y la estrategia de falta de vivienda. Y en los últimos meses, una cosa que notamos del programa actual de Tiales es que aproximadamente 20% de los programas o los participantes han estado por más tiempo de la cantidad deseada. No tenemos datos fuertes sobre el manejo de casos a nivel individual. Solamente se acumulan o se organizan las notas de casos. Es difícil entender lo que pasa a nivel individual, pero cuando miramos las tendencias es un señal que el modelo y que el diseño no es suficientemente fuerte para resolver los problemas dentro de 24 meses y para ir al siguiente paso. Entonces lo que queremos hacer para el programa nuevo y lo que recomendamos es manejo de caso específico that makes sense for the needs of the housing service. We want to put in place a very conscious analysis to move the houses to these trajectories where they will have specific case management and monitoring to make progress in the months towards a very specific end of housing. For example, for the bridge towards independent jobs. El plan de manejo de casa va a incluir construir ingresos, tener ayuda de empleo y resolver problemas, tanto que la vivienda va a poder aumentar las contribuciones de alquiler dentro de 24 meses con la idea de que van a poder tomar control sobre el costo completo del alquiler hacia una forma permanente de vivienda dentro de 24 meses. Es lógica similar dentro de todos los niveles y todas las pistas diferentes. La otra cosa es importante de señalar del programa y el diseño es que el Consejo en enero aprobó una tasa de servicio más alto. Pensamos que va a ir la distancia para poder tener una medida de caso más constante. Vamos a hablar en unos minutos sobre cómo los participantes se pueden coincidir con una unidad razonable. It is important because if a unit is economical, then the housing has more possibility to take care of the rental or transfer to a different grant if it classifies. The participants will have support, boarding, they will have the commitment, the expectations and they will have help to expedite everything except El alquiler expedido se financió para haber pagos, circunstancias y verificación manejado por la agencia fiscal. Y lo último, la ASA va a poder institucionar un reporte de manejo del reporte como parte del reporte inicial. Entonces, muy rápido, pasando los tres componentes del programa. Primero, manejo de caso. Entonces, en enero, el Consejo aprobó una tasa de 600 por adulto va a incluir 1 a 20 medidas de caso y también para poder estabilizar dentro de 90 días, convirtiéndolo a apoyo mensual con un plan individualizado, apoyo para salud mental, empleo, servicios legales, beneficios y necesidades financieras y prevención y apoyo durante crisis. Is this separate from the rental scholarship? Yes, correct. The second component is the rental scholarship. This, the fee there was approved by the council in January and that includes direct payments to the owners for security and rental deposits, verification of rental payments, information of lease and reporting verified data to the city, the office of the that we think will be very helpful for the purposes. A few months ago we knew that this committee was very interested in how to attract and retain the owners. And one thing we heard is that when they are paid the rent on time, it helps a lot to participate in the program. And being able to pay the rent on time is a critical strategy among several others.

The third part is the recommendation of the LHD, the action that they recommend today, the CEO, the LHD. We have been working with Home Inc., which is going to be... El agente fiscal central pagando el alquiler para el programa de ciudades y estamos recomendando que trabajemos con Home Inc. para hacer otras partes importantes que van a crear unas unidades con alquiler razonable. Home ha hecho esto en otras jurisdicciones y lo han hecho bien. Por ejemplo, en el condado de Maricopa, donde están basados, han creado 6,000 de estas viviendas. También están trabajando en Los Ángeles, entienden el mercado aquí, tienen relaciones con propietarios aquí ya. En las jurisdicciones en donde están haciendo este proceso, ellos han podido rebajar el alquiler a 35 días, el contrato de alquiler, lo cual me parece a mí excelente. Ahorita, sin una estrategia para identificar estas viviendas, podría tomar meses para identificar un puesto It's an opportunity that we could miss. So if someone has a house with to provide it. intervenciones para hacer todas las inspecciones antes este que alguien se mude al sitio y luego inspecciones después y también procesar todos los este quejas por daño entonces eso creo que nos podría salvar mucho trabajo administrativo también y en la versión previa la ciudad iba a hacer este las inspecciones El evaluación, eso era antes. Nosotros, siempre las evaluaciones de lo que nosotros entendemos es lo que ha estado ocurriendo, pero no sabemos si alguien para la parte de la ASA quiere hablar sobre eso. No tenemos que contestar eso ahorita, pero. Muy bien. Entonces, estas son las componentes, las partes del programa, y creo que queríamos seguir con una propuesta para selección de participantes. Entonces, la oportunidad grande que vemos aquí es, to take advantage of the investments in limited time subsidies to create new capacity in this public housing. It's another thing that you're monitoring in the past year, and we're informing HSE, but with the new data we have in February this year, about 30% of participants in provisional housing in the city have been in these places for more than a year, and that is increasing. Two years ago, in January, of the 24, only 18%. And what we're suggesting is that the new TLS program could help people who have been in this provisional housing transfer to their own apartments, have this help to solve problems and create a lot of new capacity in provisional housing so that more people who are not under the roof could be under the roof. To ensure that this proposal is fair and equitable throughout the city, we evaluate the numbers and this shows the distribution of the percentage of participants in provisional housing with funds from the cities over a year that have the documents ready. We divide this by Distritos, el de medio es un año y el otro es seis meses. El primero es la distribución de personas sin techo dentro de la límite de la ciudad con una nueva cuenta. Y como pueden ver, es consistente. Como pueden ver, es a poliza. Poner en prioridad personas que han estado en esta vivienda podría significar que vamos a poder ayudar a otras personas en cada distrito. Y para que la gente haga la transición de vivienda provisional. Entonces, hacer prioridad, queremos recomendar cinco criterios de elegibilidad. Que usted tiene que estar sin vivienda cuando lo admiten al programa. Tiene que estar participando en vivienda provisional. Tiene que tener una identificación válida que aún no tienen una unidad. Entonces, lo que significa que ya no tienen este, una trayectoria, este, y que usted es elegible para ser parte de Alliance. Cualquiera persona que está en un puesto de TLS o en vivienda, este, permanente no sería parte de esto. Y, eh, si se cumple que son esos requisitos, entonces vamos a recomendar el comenzar a hacer prioridad de las personas que han estado más de 12 meses en asistencia bajo la ciudad, vivienda profesional bajo la ciudad. Y estamos intentando proponer algo aquí que tendrían menos restricciones posibles para asegurar que no hay más atrasos, que son desafíos a participación. Y mientras que implementamos eso, lo iríamos bajo cumplimiento de los requisitos de los... And I think there are more details about how the program will be designed for better results. Our thought is that each of these lines would be 30% of the participants of the program. That is not a requirement, it is just an operational plan. Y creo que es muy importante que la cantidad de participantes esté en la parte C, ayuda intensiva, que modulamos eso, la cantidad que entra basado en la trayectoria de oportunidades de PSH que se van a hacer disponibles en los dos años que vienen para asegurarnos que hay un recurso que podemos ayudar a que la gente accese. . . . . . Y los navegadores van a ayudar a que participantes entiendan la criteria del programa y comprometerse a ese criteria. HOME de hecho va a designarlos. Y luego todos los participantes en el programa serían elegibles por 24 meses de subsidios de alquiler y servicios y por supuesto cualquier Vivienda que ha identificado que tienen vivienda permanente, tendrán que transicionar lo más rápido posible. Última dispositiva. Y esto es ambicioso, pero creemos que si implementamos esto, este es el alquiler, tiempo de alquiler con tres metas importantes. Queremos ver, por ejemplo, 600 familias o viviendas participando para el principio de septiembre, por lo menos, And the last thing I will say is that I believe that to meet this date, all three parts of the program have to exist. We will have to have strong services, a mechanism to pay rent and identify Thank you. Y nada más quería hacer unas preguntas para clarificar antes de que se las dé a mis colegas para sus preguntas. Necesitamos comenzar el alquiler de manera rápida debido a el tiempo en el que nos enfrentamos. Si podría clarificar qué otros pasos, qué pasos, dónde vamos en cuanto a eso. Porque de lo que yo entiendo, después de la última presentación, es que esos contratos to be completed by March to begin in April, right? I can give you the update, Reginald Kassar, with LHD. Yes, as part of the CAO report, what was approved by the council is to execute an amendment with an existing contract with LASA, with the Alliance contract, to provide services in the service management component. And then the other piece would be to execute a new contract with HOME for the rental assistance portion. So on the LASA side, in amending the LASA contract, we have completed the work size based on the program design that is being evaluated today. That's with LASA to approve the final part. And we're about to sign that. And of course, this is based on the discussion we're going to have today. If it's approved, then we can move on. The discussion today is important for the LASA contract. It was approved in January. My apologies. um um and I hope that this is satisfactory for everyone. And I hope that this continues as quickly as possible with the contract with Home. Right now, it is under evaluation with the municipal attorney. We are just finishing a couple of things before executing this contract. How long has it been under the municipal attorney's evaluation? Yo no tengo esa respuesta, mis disculpas, pero sí estamos poniendo presión para que eso siga adelante rápidamente para implementar el programa. ¿Alguien está aquí de la Fiscalía Municipal para hablar sobre esto?

Perdón.

He sido dos semanas. Hola, Lorena Sanchez con LHD. He estado bajo evaluación por dos semanas. Very good. When do you expect to get it? I'll wait for it to finish. Could you bring the microphone closer? We spoke yesterday with the municipal prosecutor, the municipal prosecutor's office. There were some questions they asked us, and they still haven't confirmed when they will return it to us. Anyone here from the municipal prosecutor's office who could talk about this matter? No? Very good. And then the final question that I had is in terms of the capacity to administer this contract, another piece of this, in fact, which satisfies the instructions of the committee. This committee had asked that more contracts be made directly from the city to the service providers to do more things that we are not contracting with. The contract with HOME is direct from the city to HOME. This is part of the work that we have asked LHD to do, that the system in the city does. This type of administration, what does it require to ensure that this is successful? And what would be the result? Regina, I'll start again with LHD. In our report, we include the current state of the capacity to manage the day-to-day operations of this type of program, considering that LASA has the service provider part and the case administration part, and the other is the direct contract with HOME. Included in our original report is the plan of the of the Department of Housing that was approved in December. Yes, ten new positions were approved, however, . . . . . and three project coordinators under them. Anything else for TLS or for the entire system? TLS, which you had originally proposed, correct. And this anticipates that the contract with HRNA, which is currently doing the work, we're waiting for that to reach its closing date Thank you. I appreciate this report and I appreciate that I think that's a critical part of the success of this program. And I think that's one of the reasons why this has been brought up, because of the bathroom, housing, and we really haven't been creative. So help me understand that. And I know you had mentioned the process. but I can say that HOME has a lot of history of building these types of homes that include shared homes, so it would be very exciting to offer. Any subcontractor can send people to shared homes and encourage them to do so. And how would that be? When participants are offered different units, some of those will be shared housing options. If that works for you, here's an option. So there will be shared options within these. Any incentive? Because there's a benefit for us, obviously, shared housing. There are more people. Get O'Neill. For the shared income model, we would have to go back to the percentage of people who are high in the RFP, because we're talking about around the spectrum. is So that we could have a little more time while we are planning the implementation. Absolutely. I did mention it last time. It's the reason why we were here. It's the emotion. But Roman seconded it. So it's not a new idea. It's something we've mentioned before. And that's why we wanted to make sure that home could include shared housing. That's the progress we've made so far. The piece encourages us. We just need a moment and we can come back. and they could also come back with a piece of information about the monitoring that they're doing. which number of people are moving to shared housing? Thank you. I think that would be helpful. Any other questions? No? Thank you. Member McOsker. Oh, sorry. Juror, did you not raise your hand? Very good. Thank you very much. After McOsker. Looking at the parts of the program on page 5, This includes support programs, rentals, corrections, and other things that have been weak points. A simple question. ¿Quién y cómo estamos asegurando tener personal para esto? ¿Quién es la persona que se ve con el cliente y dice, tengo seis sitios, van y los llevan ahí y van a asegurarse que no hay cucarachas y luego revisan con ellos cada cuantos meses para asegurar que están pagando y que no hay ningún daño y todo eso? ¿Qué tipo de consulta, empleado y para quién es ese trabajo?

That is the part where we go to LASA, only LASA, nothing of the subcontractors of LASA, I can not explain, surely better than me, but Home will create the unit register and the way the maintenance contract works, correct me if I am wrong, There is a contract that is money made by LASA for suppliers to find case managers, which the Councilor Blumenfield asked about interests to be included by service suppliers. Yes, and what is the chain of command in the organization? And if LASA recently made an evaluation about who is going to work in the TLS program. Yes, we have a good data team that uses a panel to evaluate. It was not the first time we did it. In this model we worked with LASA for a long time. They are very good. We are going to monitor these in the same way as with a database, which is very detailed. Evan Kuhn is here from the data team who can review it, and she is willing to come to her offices, to walk around the base, because it is a very good way to monitor the success of the data. And I'm not asking about how she finds a few thousand units. I understand that. That's what you can find. I'm actually asking about case management in the presentation or three areas. who said that we do this poorly. In the design of the program, the magic, the magical moment, we can do these three things right. What is the difference between today and tomorrow? They are the three things that we do, the three things that we are going to do right. Evaluating who makes the program is the past. Having new people is the criterion. I think the official is part of the procurement desempeño del pasado, mirando el KPI y desempeño del pasado, la sección a proveedores de servicio que tienen un acta de, bueno, eso es uno. Estamos eligiendo los proveedores número dos. Hemos hecho caminos específicos para estos proveedores y vamos a continuar a mejorar esos to ensure that each case manager understands the expectations and tools for them and so that they have not only the program, but also how to operationalize the program. There is a whole set of supports that we are going to define and align. Number three is Monitorea robustamente que tiene un acceso disponible para todos los proveedores a todos niveles de liderazgo para ver quién está conociendo los diferentes blancos, asegurando que todos sean analizados y monitoreados en tiempo real para tener All those three reasons, and with the assistance of Homes, to be able to precisely monitor the rent payments, it is important to be able to say that this person is on a self-sufficient trajectory. But seeing that now they do not pay the rent, we did not have this until this year, all those articles coming here together, the specific concentration is going to lead to this change. And that is excellent, thank you. You, Laza, yes, thank you. So what I'm hearing now is that taking the weaknesses of the program in the performance of the past and saying that there will be a centralized database to ensure that people make payments on time and that people are not out of place again. We are using the subcontractors who are there being evaluated to see who plays them well. for information, to see that everything happens better and faster. For those things, the things that can never replace. We go in the car and look at the place, if we don't have cockroaches or if we have a strong door. In contract monitoring, a sample panel, monitoring where suppliers are being deficient, to show a team to do contract monitoring and support, to help them with their needs. This is what Counselor McCusker showed. Improvements for provisions that allowed us to better monitor parametric performance. I want to be honest. The ability of the ASA to use this data to improve performance has been limited in our experience. They have generated data. but it has always been clear to the city that they used those data to improve the performance of the suppliers. I think it is important to create the capacity in the location and monitor it, because we depend. In the past we said that ALASA is responsible for monitoring performance and management. Sometimes it happened and sometimes it didn't, but it has been a bit non-constant, although the quality of data has already improved. They are regularly providing it. I want to point out that the biggest questions are management. We have to have someone in the city analyzing this data, someone pushing to ensure that we perform in the results. If not, we do not comply with the alliances. I want to make sure that we all understand that now in the city, people doing that, reporting HSE, Thank you very much. Este es quien está trabajando en el programa de Alianza de Tierras en mi zona. Yo tengo dos espacios acá, pero primariamente uno. Entonces yo puedo mirar y decir que hay uno local ahí, alguien trabajó en ese, alguien que sabe, alguien que entiende dónde están las unidades, cómo son los vecindarios, cómo colocar a alguien de refugio a... unidad de subsidio limitado por tiempo que va a funcionar. Sí, sí, y nos encantaría su alianza, alianza de cada distrito para hacer esto. Entonces, algo que estamos esperando poder hacer es seguir adelante con cada distrito, es decir, que esto es nuestro entendimiento de dónde están las personas que reúnen los requisitos en cada sitio de su distrito. Por favor, pueden hablar con estos proveedores de servicios y demostrar que hay una oportunidad and make sure that if people are not ready, that they prepare. And similarly, if there are owners who think that they are going to agree well with this program, please refer them to us or HOME. They are two ways to ally with us. That means that they have not been selected yet. The procurement or the acquisition, no. Los contratos creo que se han presentado y revisado y están listos para ser otorgados. Y sí, fueron aprobados por la comisión. No lo quiero demorar. Está en una trayectoria tan crítica. Nadie debe demorar, pero sería lindo. Es un buen informe, pero es difícil entender lo que realmente está pasando y cómo podemos ser parte de este proceso. Muy bien. Y quiero ver cómo si el HSE puede ser and how the offices of the council, if they have questions about this, can be found once a month. Employees from all the agencies that come so that people can come and talk about the operation with the employees and push for changes and look at the data. Yes, because it has already reached that extent, more or less, and expand it a little so that it is not just a report, but an operation, an active space to ask questions and have those comments where people are physically in the same place. Counselor to the jury. Yes, thank you. Thank you. I want to follow up on a question that Counselor McCaskill made. It sounds like there is a whole system of people who are going to be supporting this link. Una cosa que me preocupa es la reducción en dólares que recibió LASA. Cómo esto impacta posiblemente las posiciones que ustedes quizás van a necesitar para procuramento o sistema de apoyo, pero aún más para posición de navegador de vivienda y para llegar a las responsabilidades y huecos. Suena como que está haciendo más, pero le está yendo un poco menos el año que viene. ¿Cómo estamos pensando? re-prioritizing to meet the goals of this program of admission to achieve the desired results? It is a very good question. As we know, the funds of the Conrado go from the ASA at the end of the year. We are restructuring, so we are going to be more efficient. Estamos esperando de ver el presupuesto de la alcaldesa que exactamente van a ser nuestros fondos y vamos a tener algunos fondos del condado o de la ciudad por JPA, pero el resto tenemos planes para ser eficiente y transparente, para hacer más con menos, pero depende mucho del presupuesto de la ciudad. OK. Creo que entonces. Sería mejor saber cómo se ve la eficiencia de la estructura que menciona porque no lo puedo invistar ahora, no lo puedo imaginar ahora. Sí, bueno, lo explicaremos en detalles. Creo que se pueden volver a presentar un poco de eso, pero lo podemos hablar después. Sí, yo tengo unas preguntas en cuanto as unidades en sí, trabajando para estabilizar familias con el programa TLS. ¿Qué pasos LHD va a tomar para asegurar que las unidades identificados van a cumplir con los estándares de habitabilidad? Están completados antes de que los participantes se muevan. Regina Alcazar con LHD. La recomendación de CASA siendo esta entidad para identidad, unidades razonables y expidiendo parte de esa tasa, ese rango, va a ser para analizar habitabilidad de la unidad. Como ven, un trabajo muy importante. Eso está un poco fragmentado ahora en el programa existente. So we're going to work with the department to make sure that those are resolved. Or ask for the fines as we fixed them. I think they operate under the standards. So, if it is incorporated into the contract, then we will work closely with them para asegurar que sea algo que puedan completar. ¿Alguien de home está aquí hoy? No, desafortunadamente no. Antonio, son los estándares de HUD, van a actuar como los inspectores de LHD. Estoy tratando de visualizar quién va de la puerta, quién golpea, quién se fija, porque para nuestros estándares, nosotros tenemos inspecciones para habitabilidad, It has to be every three or four years, but we don't get to that from seven to nine. So guessing for this program, if we are counting on our own employees, we will not be able to do it and we will move people to uninhabited places. In my primary concern, we are extending it to people who have the capacity, so we hope to meet our goals, because if we use the timeline, we will see that they are nine habitable years after people moved. It is a very big concern for us. It is one of the number one problems that we find. The cyclists are our housing units that have housing, which is very good. The second thing is another problem that we see Who will pay for the damages after someone moves out? It is the responsibility of the city. Part of the budget for the house includes a group of damages to access security deposit claims. And beyond that, there will be a group of damages ¿Cómo se analiza los daños? El beneficio de hacer inspección antes de mudar adentro es tanto que podemos hablar de la preocupación de habitabilidad, de mover más rápido, pero también que no van a tener actas dentro de la casa para verificar los daños. Eso va a causar ineficiencias también. Van a tener un equipo responsable para verificar todos los reclamos. Yo veo en la verificación, pero ¿cuánto dinero I'm trying to see how much money we're going to have. And because the costs are still increasing for Mayfair or even in the 1.0, it was like a calculation of room by room how much damage they were going to do and the people who left and the damage, which is three, is more than what they saved. And as a city, generally speaking, We do not count enough, we are trying to see what the formula is going to be to resolve the funds for the damages. Why are they going to happen and how can we anticipate it. I will ensure that we have the funds to fix it, because if someone leaves to use it in this timeline. Seeing how we assign the money for the damages. I can send it to you if you want reparto de detalle alrededor de los daños y los citaron basado en su experiencia operando programas similares para proveerles información adicional. Creo que ayudaría para un propietario de nuestro sistema tratando de ver cómo los reparos se ven antes de estar inscrito para tener un estándar de la línea de base before entering, before the costs are too inflated. The next question, excuse me, if there are some people who are going to have to leave the Chiales program this year, and if people return to enter these programs, they will be counted as part of the cinema of the Alliance itself, o por entrada a TLS o no si un participante entra o sale y entra de nuevo. Esto probablemente es una pregunta para el CIO monitoreando la resolución. Gracias a esa pregunta en particular. Matt Sabo, CIO. Nosotros tenemos que analizarlo. Quizás nos requieren, en términos de las 2000 posiciones que contamos hacia nuestras camas de alianza, deben ser nuevos. Vamos a tener que analizarlo caso por caso si hay una continuación de un subsidio actual para alguien quien está actualmente en vivienda para un programa actual de TLS. Es improbable que contará, que contaría. No creo, pero tampoco no quiero especular en sesión abierta. Lo tenemos que analizar a ver si hay una restricción para algún individuo. Yo puedo decir con CERTEZA QUE VA A SER UNA CONTINUACIÓN DE UN SUBSIDIO ACTUAL PARA UN PROGRAMA ACTUAL. TIENE QUE SER UNA POSICIÓN NUEVA, UN PUESTO NUEVO. AHORA SI POR HOTEL EN CONTRA DE MOTEL TIENE QUE SER AHÍ DENTRO DE 30 DÍAS PARA SER CONSIDERADO UN MOTEL Y UN TIEMPO MÁS SI CONSIDERAN UN INQUILINO ENTONCES LOS MOTELES EN GENERAL LOS HECHAN that day before, and then they have to come back and be a resident, even though time has passed. Okay, well, that helps. Thank you. Thank you. And sometimes the perverse incentives force people to go back to the street before we can serve them under the resolution for anyone listening, believers, judges, please help us make it more reasonable. y para que sirva mejor a la gente de Los Angeles quienes necesitan nuestra ayuda, la resolución está causando incentivos muy perversos que dañan Los Angeles y las maneras como tomamos las decisiones en el presupuesto de la ciudad. Con eso, hay otras preguntas. Bueno, esto tardó más tiempo de lo que había esperado, pero gracias por la conversación robusta. quiero decir que realmente abogué para este programa porque es uno de los más efectivos económicamente también para dirigirse a la crisis de falta de vivienda y el programa TLS le permite dignidad a la gente si están en su sala, su apartamento, moviendo así autosuficientes. Es posible si el programa funciona bien, yo creo que puede ser una manera muy emocionante de servir a la gente que necesita apoyo. Es mucho más barato. My only question is how ¿Quién lo maneja y cómo se ejecuta a los estándares que necesitamos para que funcione? Yo lo quisiera moverlo adelante. Tengo que preguntarle a CLHD que vuelvan una recomendación para hacerse cargo de que tengamos la capacidad de manejo, sea por consultantes de contratación o consultantes externos, lo cual es bueno, o contra la habilidad. in our existing plans, or in other ways, making sure that there is no gap in that supervision moving forward. I don't understand how to form it as an amendment, or what decision we have now. Yes, and I'm going to second it. Thank you, counsel, the jury.

Very well, President. Your committee is ready to vote on article number 3, and that is... El informe del departamento de vivienda sobre el programa de TLS con sus enmiendas me gustaría modificarlo para incluir una instrucción para el CAO y el división del departamento de vivienda que regresen con este comité. Presidente Rahman. Thank you. Thank you. And I think that among all the people who are here, in front of us at the table, we could end with a program that really fulfills the goals that we have as a city. We can now vote on the other points on the agenda, which are 1, 2, 3, and 4. And I want to clarify that I don't know if the gentleman who made the comment is still here, but this is not retroactively. A retroactive emotion. The issue of what Mentionaron, no creo que es un asunto que nos debería de preocupar. Si podemos votar uno, dos, tres y cuatro, al menos que alguien tenga una inquietud, vamos a llamar a la lista para tomar el voto. Presidenta Rahman. Sí. Cancel el jurado. Sí. Consejal Blumenfield. Blumenfield, sí. Miembro Hutt. Sí. Miembro McCosker. Sí. Cinco a favor. Artículo uno, dos... Y cuatro, se aprueban. Entonces, ahora podemos llegar a una cláusula, levantar nuestra sesión especial y continuar con la reunión regular. Debería de llamar la lista de ingreso. Presidenta Rahman, yo estoy aquí todavía. Consejal Jurado, aquí. Consejal Blumenfield, aquí, present down. Consejal Hutt y miembro McCaskill, aquí. five members present, and a quorum president. Excellent. So let's continue with article number one, which is a nomination. Does anyone have a question? Article number one is the mayor's report relating to the report of Natalie and Emil Ascora. for the United House LA Supervision Committee. If you want to sit down, welcome. If you want to tell us a little bit about yourself and then we can I love Los Angeles. I specifically have done a lot of work at the University for Immigrant Rights. I've worked a lot with CHIRLA. When I was in the preparatory, now I work with Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice, which does more work in the Inland Empire, because that's where my school is. And I've also advocated a lot for higher education accessibility. I'm an auxiliary in that. Este, como una, este, sí, y apoyo becas, este, presentes como yo, y estoy muy emocionada de estar aquí el día de hoy. Bienvenida. Este, no sé, miembros, si tienen algún comentario. No. Buena suerte. Sí, es mucha responsabilidad. No sé si eso es algo que yo pude haber hecho. Cuando yo estuve en el puesto, en el, en el, Momento en su vida en lo que lo está haciendo y apreciamos su servicio. Este, vamos a llamar el voto. Ramen, jurado, sí.

Miembro de Bloomingfield, sí.

Hutt, sí. Miembro de McCosker, sí. Cinco a favor. Y el nombramiento se aprueba. Bienvenida y felicidades. Y anticipamos sus servicios. Ahorita, recomiendo que notemos y archivamos el artículo número 2 y aprobemos los artículos 3, 4, 5, y 6. Y diez, yo creo que hay una enmienda de parte de la concejala Hutt, quizás de parte de Blumenfield también. También tengo enmiendas para 5, 6 y 7. Muy bien, claro. Sí, claro. In five is the contract for the salary to instruct the contract, the contract administration to inform us in 120 days for a transition plan for programs and personnel in terms of accountability, the personnel that monitors the salary for BCA. I would like to second that. That was five. That was for article number five. And you want me to, six, that could be discussed. Sí, artículo 6. Entonces, cuanto a número 6, me gustaría discutir eso, pero mi enmienda era borrar recomendación 1 del informe del administrativo, oficial administrativo y dirigir que mantengan el nivel de camas y también incrementar el programa de vale para todos los climas, para camas de todos los climas y también tener a program based on the county with the city funds. And I think that in our climate program around the year, it's more effective in terms of taxes. The winter program doesn't make sense because of our winter. I think that if we invest in the VALES program, regardless of the season, instead of So I'm a little bit confused here because I don't know that it would have a fiscal impact because we would have to change the amount. What they're talking about is to change for the winter program for next year. And what I'm saying is that it's a better program for all stages of the year. If we increase the level, we'll have fewer beds. And I prefer, if we're talking about our priorities, it's a program that's valid for this climate in all stages of the year. Very good. I'm going to hold that. Yes, I could take more discussion. Y quizás lo tengamos que continuar para la próxima reunión para entender. Eso está bien. Vamos a sostenerlo. Y el 10. También tenía 7 y 8. 7 y 8. Muy bien. Vamos a escuchar el 7 y 8, Lloyd. 10 had a motion with HUD, and I have a motion, a amendment for that amendment. I think we're all, I second it. I second yours, so that everything is an amendment. So, President, I have the amendments for the recommendations today, which I want the Secretary to read so that they can be included in the act. These amendments are going to move the pilot bonus project of salaries Yes, Ms. Hutt. La enmienda es para adoptar lo siguiente en vez de las recomendaciones enumerado en el informe del Departamento de Vivienda de Octubre del 25 a autorizar que el administrativo que enmienda la póliza de bonos y procedimientos aprobado de parte del Consejo Municipal agosto del 2019 para crear un programa piloto de sueldo de clase media que puede operar dentro de la Ciudad de Los Ángeles que puede utilizar asociación con alguien para crear bonos para adquirir bienes propietarios y para imponer acuerdos regulatorios limitando la cantidad de ocupancia para viviendas con sueldos entre 15% y 120%. de sueldo medio del área de Los Angeles para alquilarse a tasas asequibles para los que están a la tasa de 4% instruir al departamento de vivienda que nos informe sobre los parámetros de la agencia de soluciones, programas de bonos, y cómo esto interrelaciona la creación Thank you, Councilor Hutt. . . . . . So sorry, there were a lot of issues that made me worry. Before that, there was a default rate. There was a fear that, OK, if we get this house, we're avoiding a tax. This is going to go and hit the tenants. impuesto de interés. Entonces, cosas así me asustaron. Pero creo que es una buena idea si es que podremos hacer algo sobre los asuntos. Tengo unas enmiendas para ayudar a protegernos un poquito mientras que sigue esto adelante, porque el otro asunto es que esto, una de las maneras en que resulte es como este GPA se considera la tasa gubernamental para el We can get that through something like public housing. No quiero atrasar eso, fue mi pensamiento inicial. Entonces, tenemos algunas ideas para enmiendas. Antes de que se haga, se permite ningún bono, las guías se tienen que aprobar de parte del consejo y tienen que arreglar lo siguiente. Uno, para verificar the city does not have any legal responsibility. That's another thing that worries me. So the tax on possession of interest does not have to be the responsibility of the tenant or the city, but the responsibility of the contractor if it is required. Because there is a legal question if it is actually going to be required, but if we put it in the guidelines, that that has to be explicit. So, yes, it requires their responsibility, and it is our responsibility, as well as that of the three tenants, that future property taxes be balanced with other taxes and savings from the tenants, and that they will be protected with bonds, insurance, and reserves. And to address the LHD, regarding the possible loss of taxes, of income and taxes and with those changes, although for a while I was a little scared about the idea. I would like to move forward with this idea because to have these protections that are part of this. Are you comfortable with that? Yes. So now we're going to vote two, three, four, five with your amendment and ten with your amendment. SPEAKER 1, SPEAKER 2, SPEAKER 3, and three and four, these are the TEPHRA bonds. So nothing more, this is to approve the recommendation of the city's official administration and the recommendations of the department. Five is to approve the CAO's report with its amendment on behalf of Bloominfield Ramen. And 10 is the department, the report of the housing department with its amendment. . . . . Y también para recordarles, el artículo 6 se continúa para una fecha en el futuro. Sí, para la próxima reunión. Para la próxima reunión. Muy bien. ¿Quiere que llame la lista para tomar el voto? ¿Que tome el voto para eso? Presidente Rahman, sí. ¿Consejal Jurado? Sí, eso nada más es para continuarlo. Sí, para continuar el artículo 6. I do what the secretary asks me to do. Very well. Yes. Councilor Bloomfield. Yes. Councilor Hutt. Yes. Councilor McOsker. Yes. So Article 6 is continued for the next meeting of the committee.

Very good.

And so we have I think three articles, seven, eight, and nine. And I would recommend, because it's getting late, I didn't think we were going to, in fact, I didn't think it was going to take that long. We didn't have a report when I scheduled this meeting. Sorry for this meeting. This was based on trying to complete as much work as possible with the time we had. Muchos contratos que se tendría que divulgar y muchos días de falta debido al receso del consejo. Entonces, por favor, les pido paciencia. Les pido que escuchemos el artículo 8 el día de hoy. Artículo 7, quizás lo podemos continuar para la próxima reunión con el otro informe gubernamental. Tenemos que votar para continuar el artículo 7. If that's what you want. Yes. Oh, very good. Sorry. No objection. If no one opposes, we'll move on to the next meeting. Very good. So we're going to listen to Article 8. We have one more article, Article 9. And my apologies. This is the salary support report.

I think it's important to move it forward today, if we can. I don't know what you would like to say to that activist here, that this issue continues, the fragmented characteristic of our work that we are going to have to resolve moving forward. Question, issue number 9 for the act, and then issue 8 we can move forward. Issue number 9 is a A joint report with respect to the transfer to UNIDOS for elderly and people with disabilities. A program for such a thing. And there is a modification for recommendation number one. The amendment of who? The amendment... It comes from the Department of Housing, the IHT. And I can read it quickly now. It is to modify the language for the State, recommendation number one, to approve the delegation of administration, the support of income for elderly people with disabilities and programs for the Department of Housing, la inversión de comunidades para familias, incluyendo manejo y distribución de cuentas de fondos asociados de Los Ángeles para mejor alinear con la autoridad del IHD para delegar administración de programa para CIFD, prohibido por el programa de ULA. Representando esa enmienda, Muchas gracias, Consejera Jurado. Tenemos un tema aquí sobre este tema. No sé quién quiere. ¿A quién quiere tenerlo? CIFD. Si se pueden unir con nosotros, si pueden. Y voy a pedir que no hacer el reporte y ir directamente a la pregunta. El análisis geográfico identifica District 14 needs a more robust range. What specific range plan will CFD implement to ensure that eligible residents who have identified themselves need more range, are aware and able to request? I am Aaron Strauch for the CFD community. Estamos esperando trabajar con LHD en el camino de este programa. Tenemos varias actividades y factores en cuenta para determinar cómo asegurar de llegar a todas las posiciones elegibles, como notan en la transmisión, trabajando con ocho de los centros en la ciudad. Esos son seleccionados estratégicamente basado en geográfica diversa, sirviendo casas con ancianos y gente con discapacidades, teniendo relaciones existentes. con otras organizaciones comunitarias. Entonces van a ser la primera línea para el alcance, también comunicando con otras organizaciones o los centros multipropósito, multiuso, colaboración que se necesita y el lenguaje para llevar a cabo alcance con todos los solicitantes para este programa. Y cuando dice alcance dice publicaciones de tal, pero ayuda con procesos también, I understand. I know that Alcance is like extending awareness of this. I know that there are people to help people in the process, but the thing is that we live with the LADWP program the low income and garbage program with the department. Well, they presented the information that they had to have another person without profit to get the funds. I want to see if the alliance includes awareness and a project as well. And also if there is a body to help a person fill out the file in another language. That would be the additional component No solamente van a traer conciencia del programa, pero van a facilitar apoyo de solicitudes, crear un portal en línea, reconocimiento de barreras técnicos e idiomas. Van a ayudar con los solicitantes para poder entregar todos los documentos para comprobar que reúnen los requisitos para el programa. Y van a estar ahí para contestar preguntas. Bueno, muy bien, gracias. Y si no hay más preguntas, voy a recomendar to vote for this issue as it has been modified. Thank you, Erin. Ms. Raman. Yes, jurors, yes. Counselor Blumenfield, please. Counselor Hartz, yes. Counselor McCusker, yes. Issue number nine was approved as it has been modified. Very good. So now we continue with issue number seven for today and we will now move on to issue number eight. What is the last topic for today? And I want to, before leaving the CLA, we have several questions about governance before this committee, to send it to the CLA or other entities for their comments on how we move forward. There are many questions that came out of the court case and external reports of the ASA and with the alliance of the ASA and how it works and also the changes in the county and how they address the lack of housing, everything that changed dramatically in the last year and a half. These questions include temas como los contratos que están actualmente en la ASA, que involucra contratando más personas en su capacidad. Les quiero hacer acordar a todos que no hemos contratado ni una persona adicional, y lo sigo anunciando, pero eso es así de tan lento que se mueve la ciudad, creando el propio COC. El tema ha continuado, creando... with the department, another centralized structure of the government that is aimed at the purposes of better supervision on these matters, which is the report that we are going to hear today. This is a service agreement to be contracted directly with the county. They are all different ways of handling services, the relationships with services of lack of housing that we have to know how we are going to do it. We take a step forward, intermediate, creating this office And I'm waiting for this office to help generate, trying to see the issue of TLS and policy knowledge, helping employees, trying to manage the transition to make the best steps. All the incredible employees who are working with this have a lot of things that we are working on now. El próximo informe. Quiero hacer claro con qué contamos con LASA. LASA es el administrador regional con COC, que quiere decir que solicitamos a HUD para los fondos manejar el punto en tiempo, HMIS, un sistema de datos hecho por HUD. They have technical knowledge to secure the funds and they do a pretty good job. They have many federal funds for this region. They manage programs financed by the city and services. These are the contracts we make with them. They make the contracts with subcontractors, with the housing shortage providers. They have to be managing that performance, making the payments on time. y también monitoreando los gastos de estos programas. Finalmente nos tienen que proveer datos y planificación en diseños de programa. Y nuevamente esa es la función. Esa es cualquier estructura del gobierno que tenemos. Quiero separar estas tres funciones que tenemos. that any structure that we have we will have to fight with all these three positions that we have and ensure that we are answering questions about how we are going to continue with this going forward and with each article that we hear we are going to be asking some things trying to address some problems that we have in the committee in a new way we are going to bring the city closer to have more proactive power with regional policies and resources so that people within the limits have what they need. Representing to be the people with the streets. I think it's important that what we do, that we have that capacity, now we don't do it, or we don't do it very well. This way it will create better responsibility to know who is responsible. When the contracts are delayed, No tenemos a nadie en la ciudad con quien le podemos decir que está demorado porque usted no hizo su trabajo. Tenemos que poder aclarar. Who has the responsibility within the city for the results, for the expenses, the timeline? And finally, I would say that any government structure has to answer the question if this is an effective use of our resources, we have limited resources, and if we are impacting in the most efficient way possible. We have to say that any government the government structure answers these three questions very well. With that, I now refer to John Wickham from the legislator's office, legislator analyst. For topic number 8, it is a report of the primary legislative analyst with respect to the formation of a governance structure of municipal housing shortage. This article referred to the budget committee and finances. We have an internal view of how the city is organized, facing these problems of lack of housing and what is our external relationship with the system. These are the two parts of what the report talks about. And to reiterate, this is an incredibly complicated system. There are many players here at the federal level, at the state level, non-profit entities, education, health systems, the counties. and all involved government entities, authorities, and all these people have their rights and responsibilities and funds, and all bringing these resources to the system, helping people in one way or another. And it is difficult to align all those different interests in one direction towards a program. It is very difficult to manage. Entonces, es como que nos olvidamos de algunas de estas cosas y perdemos dónde está la responsabilidad. Está, no sabemos, y creo que es importante para nosotros para tratar de entender esas cosas mejor, así como estamos creando estos sistemas. Internamente en la ciudad tenemos lo mismo sucediendo. Tenemos una manera de programa y to the housing department. I don't always manage the contracts with LASA. The official administrator has a key job. The council asks the CLA to make reports on various things. There are several departments that have something direct or indirect to work with people without housing. who have intentional work or administrative work. Again, how do we organize to align all this to be more effective, to direct our resources and in some ways in common we have organized ourselves effectively at this moment to be true. We have many outside entities to do a lot of work in the system for us. and they just saw in the conversation with TLS a different way to do it, with the resources, they take one from the other and they structure themselves in a way to identify the problem and have the solutions to provide information with which to talk, there is an opportunity for a different result. We saw it when we did the internal housing last year, restructuring the rates, and the rates for the services required to live in the middle with the ASA and the county to build this program. When the city takes a more active role in the system, building, we have better results for the city. We are not structured to do it. The report asks for opportunities to structure it differently. As for the report, they took the actions to create housing services to be located in the housing department. The best way to implement it so that the city does this differently. But the employees have been approved for several positions, 10 positions. They are ready to be hired in the office. There is work to be done to create it. We see how slow it goes. And I think the department is going to ask for more direction from the council for what type of work they think the office should be doing and to what degree the office should be responsible for the development of the program in the implementation of that. It was a key area donde hay preocupaciones claves. Y más trabajo para considerar la zona más grande. La preocupación en el sistema generalmente en la ciudad es cómo conducimos contratos, crea mucho estrés en el sistema para los proveedores de servicios. Hubo una reunión esta mañana con LASA y los proveedores, con CEO, CLA, departamento. La mayoría de las dos horas eran proveedores de servicio preguntando cómo funciona el proceso de presupuesto de la ciudad y cómo el dinero fluye de nosotros a ellos y cómo hacerlo de una manera como para que esencialmente el dinero sea el monto correcto en el tiempo correcto para ayudar a la gente a hacer el trabajo que tienen que hacer, la gente que necesita la ayuda. Y hay mucho trabajo que tenemos que hacer en esa zona. These are fundamental questions that we have to address in one way or another. We take the step of creating the office providing additional employees in the area of administration and finances, but there is more work to be done. Externally, Councilor Roman, you summarized very well. The important part is to give everyone in the county and say, ah, they can do it. Another is to improve the relationship with LASA. They are there now. They provide support, continue with help for the region and work for us now. We build that relationship and strengthen it. But the third is to bring everything inside. So we do all the hiring and continued care and we will continue our own care. Hemos visto lo que se necesita para dirigirse a la oficina con un departamento con cuidado, con cienes de empleados para hacer el contrato para manejarlo. Es un aumento muy grande. Contratar con el condado va a tardar tiempo para negociar un acuerdo entre ellos y nosotros sobre cuáles van a ser los servicios y cómo lo van a enviar y qué va a ser la tasa de fondos. Va a tardar tiempo. Esas son preguntas importantes a las cuales nos estamos expendiando. Estamos esperando aprender más del Consejo, cuáles ideas y conceptos, en qué dirección vamos, en qué dirección le gustaría ir para ir a una dirección que tiene sentido para la ciudad. Y con eso, Puedo contestar preguntas. Yo diría, colegas, tenemos, como mencioné, reportes de nuestra formación de COC, un reporte de contratar directamente con el condado, lo cual debe ser disponible pronto en unas pocas semanas. Un reporte. We're going to bring contracts here now, and we've made progress to make those recommendations. But we're going to have to understand how it looks better to bring all the contracts here. And I think we have an important service agreement. What I'm going to recommend today is to ask questions about these options, hear the other reports and make a decision. and move on to an accumulated recommendation that takes into account the information that we have from all the different considerations of governance in the future here. And I think we should take today and the next meeting to do so, if the members of the committee are comfortable. It is something that they are urgently feeling and want to move the report with the additional information. I'm going to start with a question. Algo depende de la capacidad de la ciudad a dirigirse a las diferentes configuraciones que acaba de describir. Sacando todos los contratos del ASO y trayéndolo acá adentro, nos puede comentar la cantidad de empleados que sea necesario para enfrentar esa función en la ciudad. En el reporte que acabamos de presentar, Calculamos que haciendo los contratos de vivienda intermedio eran de 70 a 90 empleados requeridos para hacer todos los pasos de administración de contratos para solamente ese programa de trabajo. Si miramos los otros tipos de programas y los agregamos, estamos mirando más de 100 empleados definitivamente. Si sería mi cálculo, ¿Y cuánto tiempo tarda en general emplear esa cantidad de personas? Vamos a necesitar un liderazgo y estructura de manejo en lugar para atraer esa cantidad de empleados y manejarlos. Creo que el condado ha estado en su transferencia de fondos en medida A del ASA al condado. Les ha tardado como un año y medio aproximadamente para pasar por ese proceso. Todavía están en el proceso de moviendo a los empleados del ASA al condado. Entonces, eso por lo menos creo que lo que tenemos que hacer es considerar y evaluar los empleados que quedan en el ASA, lo que se va a ocupar para traerlos a la . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

to give us an idea of the options, except that it didn't start with the first option, which is to leave it as it is, no, to follow the law. The Code of Institution and Welfare says that the county must provide for all people with disabilities. That is the reason why we are in this problem, is because 30 years ago the county was failing Y el fiscal municipal se metió en litigio con eso y es más que LASA, sino LASA fue el resultado de esa lucha. El mundo cambia y luego ahorita nosotros seguimos adelante y nosotros intentamos arreglar un sistema que estaba, era un error desde el principio. El condado tiene 100% la responsabilidad para personas desamparadas. ¿No vamos a proveer nosotros? No, no es lo que vamos a hacer porque el condado no lo va a hacer. Porque el condado no lo va a hacer. Ya sabemos eso. Absolutamente no lo va a hacer en Los Angeles. But we should start with the responsibility of the county for these people in the city. Are we going to do it? Yes. But are we going to use a quarter of a billion dollars of our general funds for this when the county doesn't spend anything? Are we going to start there? The continuum should say, follow the law. even to cure the failure of the county. Perhaps the answer is in the middle. And sorry, sorry, but the system, there are like four big buckets. Prevention, helping people until they fall into disrepair. The CFD has a program, it's a program to help people Thank you. that the main solution is to have more housing. And to help the department by supporting them to create more housing in the cities is very important.

We have more programs to protect against eviction, to help the prevention side.

the two other categories are related to what happens when people no longer have housing and are on the street. It's the management, it's the reach on the street, because that is the responsibility of the city, because we are responsible for the people on the streets, so programs in those areas. There are people who like some, and people who don't like others. There are hygiene programs and other things we can do to help with this situation. And we want to continue those programs. But the other big thing is the piece of ensuring that people are stable in their housing situation. I understand that there are gray areas, but imagine 30 years ago, the county wasn't providing a general hospital. So we sued them for that. And we said, hey, we're going to help you build a general hospital. And that failed. And we said, well, we're going to build hospitals. We are covering for a failure. And there's only so much, I mean, what's next? Are we going to be in charge of prisons, of an army? To what extent is each government responsible? And we have to stop defending the failures of other governments. Yes. Thank you. Thank you for reminding us of the context that has brought us to where we are. I think the other piece that I would like to highlight is that we do not have the capacity for those places where the county is the only authority to do this type of work, such as mental health services, . . . . . . . Thank you, President. . . . . . Y su equipo ha estado haciendo eso. Vamos a tener un informe del jefe analista, del analista legislativo. La idea es regresar con una propuesta porque queremos establecer la relación de trabajo entre el condado, perdón, entre las y la ciudad. to have exactly an MOU that explains what are the different responsibilities in the system that clarify the relationship between the two entities. How are we going to measure, how do we develop the measures, the metrics, etc. And again, how can we identify administrative processes to ensure that the money is where it should be? or as I imagine you mentioned in the financial report, that you approved a recommendation to change one cent from one account to another, to move 16 cents from one account to another. And that's because of the way we've structured all of these structural processes in terms of the contract with LASA internally and our relationship with them. We have to correct that. We have to find a way for them to have the obligation to make decisions at the level of the Senate. That's part of my next question, is how we can increase the inter-departmental collaboration. intradepartmental, si es que LASA va a seguir siendo parte de la estructura gubernamental. En este informe que conseguiremos pronto, vamos a ver más definiciones granulares de colaboración. I think we're going to have more work. We're going to talk a little bit more about the piece of the contract. Because what I've seen in the short time I've been here is that if we didn't sign it, it wouldn't have happened. And then they don't do the work. So I think we have to be more... to have more intention to identify the work of each one. Yes, there is no team dedicated to the police. All of them are working on financial contracts, right? So they are using these different parties to cover these sites. This strategy committee is part of the collaboration, but there is so much that we need to do to fix all of this. I will give you an example. The housing department is in the police council, but there is no direction. of how to respond to the city's interests. Many of you are members of the West Side City Council, South Bay City Council. All of those government councils have subcommittees on the lack of housing, but there is no direction of a city position, of how you have a conversation and how you guide the city's position in those places. El CEO está en la continuación de cuidado. Entonces, el CEO, como recibe dirección clara de la posición, de cómo van a responder a esas posiciones, eso es el punto exactamente en la colaboración del departamento. No solo una persona está haciendo la decisión, sino es la colaboración entre todos los departamentos para seguir with this information and with this program. I think you gave how it works with TLS. I think that was excellent. I think we should find more ways to do that. Yes, thank you. And I think that's really interesting that we have a person from this department historically assigned to one part of this committee and another part of another committee for this system. Thank you for this work. And it seems that this will be clarified more as you make explicit the infrastructure around our decisions. that this city is doing, which excites me because I don't understand the skeleton of all of this, of how we make decisions here and how we all integrate. And I want to take Mr. McCosker's point, which I understand, and yes, yes, yes. But beyond that, what you said about the strategies on the street, while we are trying to cover our Alliance goals, these strategies are largely in the district that are being cut. And it is the right of the public to provide bathrooms, showers, and water. And those are the kinds of things that my district has been giving them subsidies and without sources to ensure that people have access to public bathrooms, water, and hygiene. And in this reorganization, where this is already something that they're going to cut down, me preocupa que el condado y la ciudad van a enfocarse más en el contrato y la administración y que esos servicios claves que necesitan las personas sin vivienda y merecen se van a ignorar y no van a ser parte del proceso y vamos a decir, bueno, alguna organización sin fines de lucro lo hará, pero no es nuestra responsabilidad. Me preocupa esos servicios, que esos servicios caigan en limbo how they're reorganizing everything. So if we can include that in the analysis. Yes, of course. And I think that those key areas, the housing department, if it's a key part of the system, we have a department that's responsible for that. It's a strategy of the street. It's an important part of the system. We don't have a central organization, a central person for that. So we need to find a way to tie Thank you. Thank you, Member Blumenfield. Thank you. I appreciate that. I appreciate all the comments from my colleagues. Yes, Mr. McOsker. It's what I've been mentioning for a long time. It's about responsibility. And to that end, I wanted to talk about one of the options that you mentioned. It's the option of the county to make direct contracts with the county. I don't know if that's good or bad, but I'm worried If we use, we are assuming, what Mr. McCaskill said, that the county's responsibility is another, a very different way of observing that option, instead of saying, we're going to hire, we're going to hire them and give them money, because they've denied that, saying that we're not going to give the county our money. And I don't want to give the county our money either. But if you, one assumes that the county's responsibility, and as part of their responsibility, they have to pay, and if we ask them to do something additional, it's a benefit to them, they shouldn't be charging us. Maybe hiring with the county makes sense, because they get paid by measure A for the administrative. And you said you want to understand in what direction, before we start negotiating and all this. But I can't give you a direction without understanding parts of that negotiation, because it's a very different question. It's that we're just going to contract with the county, and we're going to have to pay this 15% for administration. And I don't have an interest in making this more difficult than it already is. But if we're going to make a contract with the county, because they are already paying for the infrastructure, And we can just add a little bit of money to the side. And that's covered by measure. In fact, this is a way that we can negotiate where our dollars can go. So I'm interested and I want to hear this. So especially when you return with that report, how can we do that analysis without first understanding from the county? understand and have preliminary negotiations on whether they will take responsibility for the administration and for what they are doing. Because if they are going to do that, maybe I will be available to provide our money if it will give us a more efficient trajectory. Yes, that is a point of negotiation. en el seguir adelante con eso, pero es un... ¿Pero qué es primero? No, no, no, no creo. Porque la primera pregunta es, si es que si no hay ningún interés en el que la ciudad le dé dinero al condado, para una manera en que lo marcamos, no queremos darles dinero. Pero si los contratamos, Thank you very much. So those are the levels, these large spaces, these large squares. We want to know where we're going. Here we have, in this space, we have, we're not going to do this. County, you have to be responsible. You're saying maybe we're negotiating to find a more acceptable piece, but if it is internal to the city, then there is a difference there. We are going to bring a few programs, small programs, but we are still hiring with LASA for the responsibility of the continuation of service. We are going to be responsible for that as well. It makes a difference. There are big spaces. The big part of the county or the city is going to take a long time to get to the goal that we have. And there are people right now in programs, in the streets right now, in housing that need support. Regardless, we have to make sure that LASA is operating and is working and make sure that we can do that service. It's a pragmatic basis of where we are today. And then from there, we can try these other options. How can we? And we're not going to say that it's our responsibility. I understand that. Even if that's the legal option, we're aware of that. And we're not going to allow people to just be on the street. And if the county isn't doing the work, we're going to do something. So I think the question is, and I agree with you, is that the ASA has to work. But I still don't understand in the contract of the county how we can analyze that without understanding to what extent they will get in terms of paying Thank you very much for this conversation. The report has not been published yet. We need more information for this. This gives us the opportunity to answer these questions in a more complete way. I hadn't considered that, because part of that is always an analysis of cost-benefit, and the only way we can do that analysis of cost-benefit is if we have a sense of how much that is going to be, and that's really negotiation, and at least at the beginning, to understand at the base level, to understand where that is, and maybe that's a conversation to have with the county, separately. If I could make a suggestion, I think it's not an exaggeration to say that there was some collaboration between the city and the state a few years ago. I think we were hoping to see maybe a change between the two parties, which has suffered since then. And I think there's an opportunity with this report to go to them and say, I think it's time to repair this for the good of this region and for El bien de nuestras comunidades y la gente más vulnerable, creo que es tiempo para decir, tenemos que trabajar juntos. ¿Qué es eso en cuanto a una nueva relación entre el condado? We want to make investments, but we don't have enough. We don't have a special tax for this. This comes from our general funds. Help us. What would that be? We ask the legislative analyst to inform us about this, if you can return with that. It would be excellent to have that information as soon as possible. Do you agree, counsel? I agree. But who in the city is having this conversation with the county so that this can happen? To prepare this report, we have spoken with the county. Can we follow up with them? We don't have advice from the council to negotiate. It's not what we could do, but the county has been very collaborative in answering questions. Has there been a discussion about the cost in general, we can talk more deeply. And I think that puts the question, how can we imagine together, how could it be a more collaborative relationship to use the city's dollars as far as possible, to use the funds that they have in their new apartments? Formulando la pregunta de esa manera, creo que sería de gran impacto. El condado es nuestros socios, ¿no? Tienen los mismos constituyentes que nosotros. Les importa lo que a nosotros les importa. Yo tengo gran respeto para todos los supervisores si estamos trayéndoles algo, ¿no? Si usted comienza presumiendo que su responsabilidad Estamos trayéndoles dineros que les ayudan a cumplir con sus responsabilidades y nos ayuda a todos. Entonces yo siento que tenemos algo para traer esa relación. Thank you. Madam McOsker said, I had a follow-up question. Just to understand the recommendations, looking at the recommendations and options for the city response, is there anything to continue? Option one is, I don't for programs that meet the needs of the city. We're going to be using money that we don't have because they're our constituents. For other programs, we'll focus on Care and Care Plus and all that. nos quedaríamos con LASA, con este sistema de información, LHMS, similar a lo que está haciendo el condado ahorita. Dijeron, vamos a tomar todo el dinero y nos vamos. Y queda ahí esa función. Entonces, es que yo estoy número dos, basado en lo que acabo de decir. Muy bien, eso es de gran ayuda.

Very good. Other questions, members? Well, very good. This helps a lot. Thank you very much. We are going to keep this here in the showroom and we are going to hear it together with the other four big reports that we have now that come next week. Thank you, LASA, for being here. We are making sure that you have space now to answer these questions in the next meeting. I want to thank you for your presence and patience. I also want to recognize, obviously, we have had a long and turbulent history with LASA and the county, but I want to recognize that our allies from the county have been coming to these meetings and they are here and have been here for these meetings and that our allies with LASA have been here too. y que han trabajado con nosotros para crear el programa nuevo TLS, creando un manejo de desempeño y supervisión que deseamos y que hemos visto cambios reales en los últimos meses que son más positivos. Entonces creo que si nos concentramos y trabajamos juntos, podemos llegar a un mejor lugar. Y con eso, bueno, se levanta la sesión. Gracias.
