LOS ANGELES (CN) — The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday upheld a federal judge’s order that calls on the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to build 1,800 permanent housing units and 750 temporary ones for veterans with severe disabilities and mental illnesses on the federal agency’s West Los Angeles Campus.
While the unanimous decision by the three-judge panel reversed some of aspects of last year’s injunction by U.S. District Judge David Carter in a class action brought by unhoused veterans, it preserved the key demand to provide housing for them on the 388-acre campus in one of LA’s wealthiest neighborhoods.
