Dear Friend,
(Lea este boletín de noticias en español) ([link removed])
Ahead of my first year anniversary on December 12th, I’m criss-crossing Los Angeles highlighting work we’ve accomplished on homelessness, safety, business, climate and city services.
Yesterday, I focused on work we’ve done to open Los Angeles for business and made the exciting ([link removed]) announcement that Banc of California would be relocating their headquarters to Los Angeles! Throughout the day, I spoke with business leaders in the Valley, Leimert Park and Highland Park to hear how in our second year, City Hall can continue to be responsive to the needs of the business community.
Today, we focused on homelessness and housing. Since the first day when I declared a state of emergency, we have confronted the homelessness crisis with absolute urgency. We have brought thousands inside and will continue to improve our operations to reduce the amount of people who have fallen back into homelessness and better protect those who are housed but potentially on the verge.
Here’s a snapshot of what we’ve accomplished:
* We’re housing Angelenos urgently: According to data from intergovernmental agencies, more than 21,000 Angelenos have come inside as of November 30, 2023, which is thousands more than last year.
* We’re building more housing, faster: accelerated the review of more than 9,000 affordable housing units. ED 1 has cut through red tape at City Hall – what used to take 6-9 months to get permits now only takes an average of 45 days.
* Locking arms to deliver for Los Angeles: We have fostered a new era of cooperation and collaboration to address the number one issue facing our region with local, state and federal partners as well as intergovernmental agencies.
We will continue our new work, as a unified city, locking arms with our partners to bring as many Angelenos inside as possible and connect them to services and support. It’s a new day in Los Angeles and our momentum will not stop.
Sincerely,
Karen Bass
Mayor of Los Angeles
