Our Resources & Tools

Our campaign is not waiting to be elected to serve the people of Los Angeles. We are already doing the work of the City Controller by providing financial transparency, holding city officials accountable, and providing resources for Angelenos to use to better their lives. Our tools are being used by Angelenos to look for affordable housing, understand the City of LA budget, and provide analysis on how the city is operating.

Affordable Housing Map

The City of LA lacks a centralized listing of affordable housing units in mixed-income buildings despite the City paying $2 million to a private contractor to maintain an inventory. Our campaign’s interactive map allows users to browse all apartments in Los Angeles with affordable housing covenants granted from 2010 to 2021. The map shows the exact addresses and number of affordable housing units in each building.

41.18 Anti-Homeless Zones Map

The City of LA passed a new version of LAMC 41.18 in summer 2021, which makes it illegal to sit, sleep, lie down, or have personal property within designated areas. The City did not bother to provide a map of these anti-homeless zones, so our campaign created an interactive map that is mobile-friendly to help unhoused people and advocates navigate criminalization zones.

City of LA Budget Breakdown

We break down the 2022-2023 City of LA budget into digestible categories and easily understandable graphics. Each year, the Mayor releases his proposed budget with one month for deliberation and approval from the City Council. The public has little opportunity for input or access to a straightforward analysis of the budget.

LAPD Vendors

Our campaign created a searchable database of LAPD vendors. In fiscal year 2021, Los Angeles taxpayers spent a total of $101 million on LAPD vendors. Never before has the public been able to easily browse and search for the LAPD’s third party contractors.
