Nine local measures on Los Angeles ballots are projected to have passed.

LA County voters passed Measure A, the LA Times projected. Measure A will repeal the existing Measure H – which implemented a 0.25% sales tax in LA County in 2017 – and raise it to a $0.50 sales tax. The measure is a citizen-raised initiative that plans to raise an annual $1.1 billion through the additional levy, allocating 60% of its revenue toward services and solutions for people experiencing homelessness and another 36% toward homelessness prevention initiatives. 

The LA Times has also projected that Measure DD will pass. The measure will create an independent redistricting commission that will have the authority to redraw city council district maps. Half of its 16 members will be randomly selected by the city clerk, and the redistricting commission will select the remaining members from an applicant pool.

Measure ER – which the LA Times projected will pass – will grant the LA City Ethics Commission the right to independent counsel, while also tripling the current penalty for violating of ethics laws.

The LA Times also projected that Measure FF will pass, allowing officers from LAPD, LA World Airports, the Port of LA and the Department of Parks and Recreation to change pension plans. The city will pay the cost of the transfer.

LA voters passed school bond Measure US, the LA Times projected. Measure US authorizes a $9 billion bond that will fund technology, repairs and construction for the LA Unified School District board, and the bond will be repaid by a tax on homeowners. This parcel tax on property owners will cost them an average of $9 a month. 

Measure LL is also projected by the LA Times to pass and will alter how school board redistricting works in order to make it independent from the LA City Council.

LA’s Measure HH passed in a landslide. Measure HH will make city governance changes – such as creating new conflict-of-interest declaration policies for commissioners, adding subpoena abilities for the city attorney, increasing audit power for the city controller and altering city charter language to refer to the mayor with gender-neutral pronouns.

Voters also passed Measure II, the LA Times projected. The measure will adjust the LA City Charter to codify administrative policies decided by the city and will also reassert that the city cannot discriminate on the basis of gender in employment decisions.

Measure G sought to modify the LA County Charter to expand the LA County Board of Supervisors from five to nine members and would have created a new executive position elected by constituents rather than appointed by the board. The race was neck-and-neck for a majority of Tuesday night. However, as of 1:45 a.m. Wednesday, the race was tied at 50-50. By Thursday, the measure was set to pass with a difference of just 15,500 votes. 

However, Zev Yaroslavsky – a former member of the Board of Supervisors – said he believes the race is still too close to call. He added that previous ballot measures to increase the number of supervisors have also failed, making the measure an uphill battle.

“There have been several ballot measures proposing to the city council the expansion of the Board of Supervisors, and they have all failed,” said Yaroslavsky, who is also director of the LA Initiative.
