Summary
Facing a reported 55% increase in homelessness in 2025, the committee approved a resolution to adjust 2025 appropriations and revenues; staff said the changes reflect higher costs from hotel placements and the use of warming centers.
County staff presented a resolution described as a clean-up of 2025 accounts tied to homelessness spending after a reported 55% increase in homelessness during 2025. The presenter said the increase drove additional expenditures and explained the county plans to shift some hotel placements into warming centers to manage costs and services.
