## Key points

- Voters backed changes to council meetings and city management.
- One proposal would cut required full council days to one weekly.
- A second would add two-year budgets and infrastructure planning.

## Summary

Los Angeles voters backed two charter amendments that would reshape City Hall’s work and finances as the city faces budget pressures, deteriorating streets and costly infrastructure requirements. One could reduce the minimum number of full City Council meeting days from three to one a week, while the other would overhaul budgeting and public works management.

Amendment EE has 52.76 per cent support in unofficial results; council members could still hold other meetings and do district work, and the measure would raise the signature threshold for forcing a referendum. Amendment LA has 62.42 per cent support and would introduce two-year budgets, require long-term infrastructure planning and give a Public Works director more coordinating authority. It does not add funding for street repairs, whose costs include mandated safety improvements and accessibility requirements.
