RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Grant Amendment Agreement #28-383-4 with the BART Police Department, to increase the amount payable to the County by $249,165, from $772,033 to a new amount of up to $1,021,198, and to extend the term date from June 30, 2022 to June 30, 2023, for the County’s Coordinated Outreach Referral and Engagement (CORE) Program to provide homeless outreach services within the BART system.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this grant amendment agreement will result in additional payments to the County of up to $249,165 for the Health, Housing, and Homeless Department's CORE Program. No county match is required.

BACKGROUND:

The CORE Program locates and engages homeless clients throughout Contra Costa County. CORE teams serve as an entry point into the County’s coordinated entry system for unsheltered persons and work to locate, engage, stabilize and house chronically homeless individuals and families. The County has been receiving funds from BART under this agreement since December 2018.

On December 18, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #28–383 to allow the County to receive funds in an amount of $160,570 to provide homeless outreach services within the BART system for the period December 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

On September 10, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #28-383-1 to increase the amount payable to the County by $179,994 to a new amount not to exceed $340,564 and to extend the term date form June 30, 2019 to June 30, 2020.

On July 14, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #28-383-2 to increase the amount payable to the County by $178,500 to a new amount not to exceed $519,064, and to extend the termination date from June 30, 2020 to June 30, 2021.

On July 27, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #28-383-3 to increase the amount payable to the County by $252,969 to a new amount not to exceed $772,033, and to extend the term date from June 30, 2021 to June 30, 2022.

Approval of Grant Amendment Agreement #28-383-4 will allow the County to receive additional funds through June 30, 2023. This agreement includes mutual indemnification to hold harmless both parties for any claims arising out of the performance of this agreement. This amendment request was delayed due to the County not receiving the amendment from BART until October 24, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the County will not receive additional funds to provide homeless outreach services within the BART system.
