County cities. The board will also consider how to allocate $1.2 billion of federal COVID-19 relief funding. See Healthy L.A. Coalition alert.- White People For Black Lives (Aware-L.A.) is urging public comment to the Board of Supervisors to adopt motions to close Men's Central Jail and create a fund for Alternatives to Incarceration. See Aware-L.A. alert.- The Reimagine L.A. Coalition is urging the county to support a charter amendment that would place a countywide voter initiative on the November 3 ballot. If approved by voters, this would "permanently dedicate at least $1 billion per year from the county’s general fund for community health workers and counselors, rental support for people at risk of homelessness, and proven alternatives to incarceration." The item has its first reading at tomorrow's meeting, with final approval expected next week.Details and staff reports at meeting agenda and supplemental agenda.
