6. 1. REVIEW the Draft RFP/RFQs and PROVIDE input and direction to staff on their content and distribution.

2. CONSIDER the issue of the distribution of funding for Employment and Housing services:  Should the $2M for Employment and $1,030,000 for Housing be distributed regionally utilizing the same formula as in the past (40% to East, 30% to Central, 30% to West); updated to reflect current population numbers (Approximately 41% reside in East County, approximately 28% reside in West County, approximately 20% reside in Central County); or based on need.  PROVIDE direction to staff for incorporation into Final RFPs.

3. CONSIDER the issue of the extent to which a respondent identifies matching funds for their program.  Should there be explicit preference for providing leveraged resources in the Budget? If so, at what level.  PROVIDE direction to staff for incorporation into Final RFPs.

4. CONSIDER the term of the contracts:  Are contracts for 3 years, or one year with 2 one-year renewal options? PROVIDE direction to staff for incorporation into Final RFPs.

5. CONSIDER the recommendation of staff to commence the development and distribution of the RFQ for Planning and Facilitation Services related to the update of the County’s Reentry Strategic Plan and AB 109 Operational Plan after the current RFPs and RFQ are issued.
  Approved as presented with the following direction to staff:

1. Consider building in additional points in the request for proposals for matching funds offered by respondents;

2. The resulting contracts should be one-year in length with options to renew up to the length contemplated in the request for proposals;

3. Supervisor Gioia noted that, considering the transient population within the population being served, all regions of the County are receiving an equitable level of program support from AB 109 funds.
