Editorial: If state leaders want affordable housing, they have to stop bungling attempts to fund it (via latimesopinion)
The Los Angeles County’s homelessness crisis needs a bigger-than-my-backyard approach. Senate Bill 679 is a first step.But Senate Bill 679 was stalled. That was a loss for L.A. County, which needs hundreds of thousands of affordable homes to prevent even more people from becoming homeless.
If SB 679 is approved later this year, the soonest a revenue-generating tax measure could get on the ballot would be 2024. The tax could raise more than half a billion dollars a year and help the agency build or preserve 100,000 affordable units over the next decade. Kamlager says that she has done everything she can within her power to resolve the dispute — she has met with stakeholders, considered amendments, “and even lit candles.”
