San Jose officials demand audit of homeless services, improvements in providing shelter

SPURRED BY A state audit that found San Jose spent more than $300 million on homelessness response, two officials want the city to conduct its own audit of how much is being spent on homeless services and programs.

Councilmembers Bien Doan and Arjun Batra are hoping the information will give them a clearer picture of how the money is being spent so the city can consolidate any duplicate efforts.
