The King County Regional Homelessness Authority has implemented its first round of layoffs, impacting ten employees. These cuts follow a period of uncertainty for staff after leadership announced potential job losses. The agency's top executives were notably absent during the layoff announcements, attending a council meeting instead. These layoffs occur as an audit reveals significant unreconciled funds within the organization. Severance packages for the affected employees are notably less generous than those provided in previous layoffs.
