RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and Authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute on behalf of the County Agreement #29-604 with the City of Walnut Creek, to pay the County an amount not to exceed $16,998 for the operation of the Coordinated Outreach, Referral and Engagement (CORE) Program, for the period from January 1, 2017 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this agreement will allow the County to receive an amount not to exceed $16,998 ($10,498 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and $6,500 Community Service Grant (CSG) funds) from the City of Walnut Creek to provide homeless outreach services to individuals year-round. No additional County funds required.

BACKGROUND:

The CORE Program will provide homeless outreach services aimed at identifying unsheltered homeless individuals, transitioned aged youth and families living outside and in locations not meant for human habitations.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Approval of Agreement #29-604 will allow County to receive CDBG and CSG funds from the City of Walnut Creek for operations of the CORE Program through June 30, 2017.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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