How the Measure H spending plan has changed

By Los Angeles Times Staff

Fol­low­ing the April 13 meet­ing of the Meas­ure H cit­izen group, county of­fi­cials re­vised their ini­tial spend­ing pro­pos­als to bring the totals more in line with the an­ti­cip­ated rev­en­ue from the quarter-cent sales tax in­crease. This table shows the change in the three-year total for the 21 strategies.

Ser­vices for per­man­ent sup­port­ive hous­ing had the largest gain at $36.6 mil­lion. The largest trims were made to rap­id re­hous­ing ($126 mil­lion), bridge and in­ter­im hous­ing ($53 mil­lion) and pre­ven­tion ($48 mil­lion).

The code links the item to a de­tailed ex­plan­a­tion avail­able on the county’s Home­less Ini­ti­at­ive webpage.
