To the publisher: What a disturbing and sad state concerning the homeless in Los Angeles and its vicious“New taxes will soon overshadow billions spent on homelessness in the past decade. Who watches over it? “ April 23). Even after the approval of billions of dollars in accordance with the previous proposals of the city and the county, those responsible are not even able to communicate effectively, and even less to use the money to create accommodation.
When I read that the member of the Los Angeles Municipal Council, Nithya Raman, said that this most recent funding will allow them to communicate more effectively, I rocked my head and rolled my eyes. Over the past 10 years, a large number of administrators and politicians have proven their incompetence by not being able to effectively use the billions that have already been approved.
I can only hope that Mayor Karen Bass can get better results that Eric Garcetti has done to bring the accommodation to the evil married. But given the lack of efficiency in the treatment of the fire crisis, and all the requirements that will come after fires, it seems desperate to believe that the additional $ 1.5 billion on the table will actually see an application to help people who are poorly dried to get off the street.

To the publisher: You do not need buckets of money and new homeless committees. What you need is the following: “camping” sites dedicated to tent life; City parking lots / county for the life of recreational vehicles; And the city / county car parks for car life. All this with full enveloping services, training and vocational training. Until the civil servants make their heads around these truths, regardless of the number of buckets of money we give them.
