Are the Dell & Venice Median projects going to be built with money from Measure H or whatever it’s called ? Because if that’s the case anything less than 100% units set aside for the homeless would be a gross misuse of what the voters in L.A. approved.
You should read the Q&A articles by Becky Dennison. And ask her any questions you have regarding these measures. It is my understanding Measure HHH is for building and Measure H is for services.
So then all this talk about artist housing, “affordable” housing, and senior housing would be a misuse of the funds the voters approved. And this is why I didn’t vote for either of these measures. It’s just another example of voters approving one thing and politicians & their cohorts in the “non-profit” industry looking at it as a windfall to do all kinds of things with the money that the voters didn’t vote for.
Why is the the homeless issue so heavy handed toward Venice?
