Full summary

This file documents the Mayor's appointment of Zerita Jones to the House LA Citizens Oversight Committee, a body that provides public oversight of the City's housing programs and initiatives. The Mayor submitted the appointment on November 13, 2023, with a term ending June 30, 2026. The appointment moved quickly through the legislative process. The Housing and Homelessness Committee heard and approved it on December 6, 2023, and the full Council adopted it unanimously on December 13, 2023, by a vote of 12-0-3. Once adopted by Council, the appointment was considered final. In June 2026, as Jones's term neared its end, the Mayor submitted a new document to the Housing and Homelessness Committee on June 9, 2026. The committee scheduled the item for its June 17 meeting, but that meeting was cancelled. On June 18, the committee waived consideration of the item. The file remains open but currently has no pending activity. The appointment itself was completed and implemented in 2023; the June 2026 activity likely relates to reappointment or renewal proceedings for the next term, though the exact purpose of the Mayor's June 8 submission is not specified in the record.
