Policy area 1
Housing and homelessness
Policy choices. Tie homelessness contracts to outcomes and strengthen tenant protections and replacement of lost rent-controlled homes.
By topic
Homelessness
Tie every homelessness dollar to measurable outcomes; do not renew providers that cannot show results or accept independent review; adopt citywide siting guidelines for supportive housing (proximity standards, community notification, operator vetting, clinical appropriateness, annual public reporting on outcomes, fiscal efficiency and safety); enforce Good Neighbor Agreements and MOUs; terminate shelter agreements after failed inspections or repeated complaints.
Affordable homes
Close the off-site affordable housing pilot so the 15% affordable share is built on-site; strengthen enforcement of tenant protections and publish rent board resources in plain language; oppose Ellis Act use for luxury redevelopment and require a replacement unit before a rent-controlled unit is demolished; give small landlords tax relief and compliance support.

Reporting, audits and ethics
Automatic recusal for any business, professional or organizational tie; resolving conflicting dual roles; disclosure before related votes and FPPC referrals; earlier notice and no major votes late in long meetings; outcome-based renewal and independent review of homelessness contracts; publicly tracked fiscal benchmarks.
Water and climate accountability
Mandate monitoring of PAH, PCB and dioxin contamination in Santa Monica Bay and publish results on a regular schedule.
