The Los Angeles City Council signed off on Mayor Karen Bass' plan for expanding the Police Department on Thursday, approving a budget that calls for the hiring of about 1,000 officers over the next fiscal year and record spending to fight homelessness.The council voted 13 to 1for Bass' $13.1-billion budget, despite warnings from critics that her plan for the LAPD - increasing the size of the force by 400 officers - is unrealistic and unnecessary.
