Sanitation reports CARE+ cleanup teams limited to two days a week per district

LA Sanitation says its street cleaning budget fell from $67 million in 2022-23 to $49.4 million in 2026-27.

City Council· posted Sep 16Report$1.8M

Each City Council district gets at least two days a week of CARE+ encampment cleanup service, with more only if a council office pays from its own funds. LA Sanitation told budget and public works committees that one team costs $1,842,155 a year, and asks the Council to note and file the report.

What happens next

A separate report on the Clean Corridors Program is forthcoming.
