Mayor Todd Gloria Friday officially signed into law the $5.82 billion Fiscal Year 2025 'Protecting Our Progress' budget passed unanimously by the City Council earlier this week.
San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria signs the Fiscal Year 2025 budget into law on June 14, 2024 in San Diego, Calif.
"From the start of the process, my commitment to San Diegans was clear: We will navigate our way through these challenging financial circumstances and protect the progress we have made on our top challenges. Together, we've done that," Gloria said."I'm grateful for the partnership with the City Council in delivering this fiscally responsible budget that continues to move our city forward.
The Protecting Our Progress budget includes a roughly $28 million increase in homelessness services funding, including Gloria's plans to turn H Barracks, the city-owned former Navy land adjacent to the San Diego International Airport, into around 200 spaces as part of the San Diego's Safe Parking Program, as well as the proposed 1,000-bed shelter at Kettner and Vine.
Those actions combined could result in a loss of 600 beds at a time when homelessness continues to increase throughout the county.
