Around the Corner

🦃 Happy Thanksgiving Week!

Last week, LA’s PLUM Committee approved the Citywide Housing Incentive Program (CHIP) Ordinance, the adaptive reuse ordinance, DTLA Community Plan, and more.

A new audit found that the LA Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), with an annual budget of $875M, routinely paid service providers late, failed to track contracts and misappropriated funds. Two County officials propose an overhaul.

Exciting news from ATC: This week, we're expanding our coverage to include planning and permits from the City of Glendale! Another market unlocked 🚀
