On Monday, Governor Gavin Newsom unveiled a new state website that will track funding for homelessness initiatives and provide information on how each county is doing in addressing housing, behavioral health, and homelessness issues.

Additionally, the website displays which counties meet the requirements set forth by the state.

According to the website, the following communities in Los Angeles County are "out of compliance": Artesia, Carson, Commerce, Compton, Hidden Hills, Irwindale, La Habra Heights, La Mirada, Palos Verdes Estates, San Marino, Vernon, West Covina, and Norwalk.

"Everyone in our country ought to have a place to call home. We anticipate quick fixes, not justifications, as we continue to assist our communities in combating homelessness. There is still more work to be done, even though we are happy with the strides many communities have made in addressing the homelessness epidemic, Newsom said in a statement.

Newsom unveiled the new website along with $118.7 million in funds to help municipalities deal with encampments by building new shelters and providing support. Additionally, three other grants totaling $56.4 million will be awarded to Los Angeles to handle three encampments close to the LA River, Hollywood Boulevard, and the 10 Freeway.

Newsom signed an executive order last July that permitted state and municipal officials to destroy homeless encampments, among other things.

Following a Supreme Court ruling in late June that gave officials the power to dismantle the camps and give tickets to individuals camping in public in Grants Pass, Oregon, the executive order was issued. At the time, some local officials praised the executive order, while others, such as Karen Bass, the mayor of Los Angeles, referred to the action as "unfortunate."

Although Newsom cannot compel local officials to take action, his administration can exert pressure by denying counties and cities funding.
