The measure specifies that 60% of the proceeds would go to the county for homeless services. Of that, at least 15% would be allocated to cities, councils of government and unincorporated areas based on the annual point-in-time homeless count conducted by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority. At least 1.65% would go to an innovation fund to test new ideas for future, larger-scale programs.
The remaining 40% would largely be dedicated to housing production. The largest chunk, 35.75%, would go to the newly formed Los Angeles County Affordable Housing Solutions Agency to fund the development of affordable housing. The Los Angeles County Development Authority would receive 3%, and 1.25% would be set aside for accountability, data and research.
