LOS ANGELES—Following an audit critical of a city-county homeless service agency, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors agreed Tuesday to explore the creation of a county department to centralize homeless services.

The board approved the motion on a 4–0 vote, with Supervisor Holly Mitchell abstaining. Mitchell questioned whether creating a county department would only shift persistent administrative challenges from one agency to another.
