Committee approves consent items and adopts amended motion on Prop 1 application
Summary
The committee approved consent items 2–5 and adopted an amended motion directing staff to assess a citywide Proposition 1 application for behavioral health beds.
Barring objections, Committee Chair Council Member Grama recommended taking items 2, 3, 4 and 5 on consent; the roll call to approve those items recorded three ayes, two absences and the items were approved.
Items approved on consent (no discussion recorded): - Item 2: CEQA exemption for the use of the El Pueblo parking lot in Council District 14 (approved on consent). - Item 3: Homelessness emergency declaration third quarterly report (approved on consent). - Item 4: Motion to establish a new fund for HAP (Homeless Assistance and Prevention) funds (approved on consent). - Item 5: Transfer of funds for two HomeKey projects (Encino and North Hills) to begin construction and rehab work (approved on consent).
Item 8: The committee also considered a motion to have the City Administrative Officer apply for Proposition 1 funds for behavioral health/substance use treatment beds. The chair read item 8 into the record and offered a correction to the second moving clause to read “OR 16 based on the waiver.” The amendment was seconded and the committee approved item 8 as amended on a 3–0 roll call (two absences). The item as read asked staff to assess steps for a citywide unified Prop 1 application and to identify potential facilities capable of accommodating at least 48 behavioral-health beds (with the amendment noting OR 16 based on waiver).
Ending: consent items 2–5 were approved; item 8 was approved as amended. The committee did not take additional roll-call votes on items besides those recorded on the record.
