A statewide bill modeled after a successful program in Los Angeles would require all local jurisdictions to create a parking ticket relief program for people experiencing homelessness.
In L.A., people experiencing homelessness must do community service in exchange for the waiver. Immigration status does not matter, and people who apply can choose from a pre-approved list of service providers that work with CAPP.
There are roughly 66,000 people experiencing homelessness in L.A. County, according to a 2020 Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority count. Many people use a vehicle as a last safe haven for shelter. Having a vehicle also allows people to access public services, go to appointments with case managers, and retain employment to support themselves.
As of January, an additional 791 citations were expected to be waived pending completion of community service requirements, Sweeney said.
