Lexington’s City Council is considering a substantial boost in funding for addressing homelessness-related issues. A change in the funding mechanism passed out of committee this week.
Currently, funding for the City’s Office of Homelessness Prevention and Intervention registers $750,000. The modification, sent on to the full Council, bases support at a percentage of revenues. That would roughly double funding to $1.5 million. Council Member Jennifer Reynolds supports the change.
