## Summary

Los Angeles City Council has advanced a plan to address homelessness around Olympic venues and key routes before the 2028 Games. It puts outreach, housing placements and expanded subsidies at the centre of preparations, while requiring officials to set out how they will respond to encampments.

The motion gives city officials 90 days to report on response timelines, expected service levels and ways to increase housing placements. Los Angeles County recorded an estimated 73,040 homeless residents in 2026, up 1.2 per cent, while the city’s count rose 3.4 per cent to 45,194. The proposal also asks officials to explore public and charitable funding, expand housing subsidies and bring uninhabitable homes up to code.
