Los Angeles RV Buyback Check Presentation
As homelessness has increased, so has the number of people now calling RVs home. By the latest count, 11,000 people live in RVs across Los Angeles. While RVs can provide critical shelter to those truly on the margins, they can clog sidewalks and roadways, endangering the commuting public. Frequently dilapidated and unsafely parked RVs should never have to be home. Los Angeles’ RV buyback and disposal program is a transition program that will engage residents living in RVs, identify and secure interim shelter and housing for those living in the RVs, while adequately compensating them for and disposing of their RV. Assemblymember Friedman secured $600,000 in the 2023-24 State Budget to ensure this program has the funds it needs.
