RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Agreement #28-372-3 with the City of Richmond for its Police Department, a government agency, to pay the County an amount not to exceed $144,333 for the Coordinated Outreach, Referral and Engagement (CORE) Program to provide homeless outreach services, for the period from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this agreement will allow the County to receive an amount not to exceed $144,333 from the City of Richmond for its Police Department to provide homeless outreach services. 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.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On October 16, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Agreement #28-372-1 with the City of Richmond for its Police Department in an amount payable to the County of $100,000 to provide homeless outreach services for the CORE program for the period from October 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

On November 5, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #28-372-2 with the City of Richmond for its Police Department to increase the amount payable to the County by $100,000, to a new amount of $200,000 and extend the termination date from June 30, 2019 to June 30, 2020 for additional homeless outreach services.

Approval of Agreement #28-372-3 will allow the County to receive funds to operate the CORE Program and provide services to the City of Richmond for its Police Department through June 30, 2022. The County is agreeing to indemnify and hold harmless the city for claims arising out of the County’s performance under this contract.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, the County will not receive funding and without such funding, the CORE program may have to operate at a reduced capacity.
