Charles Stringer was confirmed to serve as a commissioner on the Los Angeles Affordable Services Authority after briefly introducing his background and answering committee questions.

Stringer thanked Mayor Bass for the appointment and said he brings 35 years of public- and private-sector experience, including legal work with tribes and nonprofits. “Estoy muy honrado por ser considerado para este nombramiento,” he told the committee, describing a practice of listening to community members and using data to guide decisions.

Committee members asked about Stringer’s experience working with environmental issues and with communities most affected by homelessness; Stringer said his approach emphasizes listening, learning and collaborating with local leaders. After the exchange the committee took a roll call and approved the appointment by a 4–0 vote.

The vote concludes the committee’s consideration of that nomination; no amendments or conditions were recorded in the committee minutes.
