RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Administrator, or designee, to execute a contract with SHELTER, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $500,000 to provide short and long-term housing services for the AB 109 Public Safety Realignment Program for the period July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The contract has a cost of $500,000 for FY 2015/16, which is 100% funded with AB 109 Public Safety Realignment revenues.

BACKGROUND:

As requested by the Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) at its May 10, 2013 meeting and recommended by the Public Protection Committee of the Board of Supervisors at their May 16, 2013 meeting, the FY 2013-14 budget for AB 109 Public Safety Realignment in Contra Costa County approved by the Board of Supervisors on May 21, 2013 included an allocation in the amount of $500,000 for short and long-term housing access countywide for the AB 109 Public Safety Realignment program.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

For fiscal year 2014/15, the CCP-Executive Committee approved the FY 2014/15 AB109 Public Safety Realignment budget at their February 14, 2014 regular meeting and submitted it to the Public Protection Committee for review and approval. On February 24, 2014, the Public Protection Committee accepted the CCP-Executive Committee's recommendations, including the continuation of funding in the amount of $500,000 for short and long-term housing access and forwarded the recommendation to the Board of Supervisors. On June 24, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved the continuation of contracts with SHELTER, Inc., for $500,000 for the period June 30, 2014 through June 30, 2015.

For fiscal year 2015/16, the CCP-Executive Committee approved the FY 2015/16 AB109 Public Safety Realignment budget at their January 9, 2015 regular meeting and submitted it to the Public Protection Committee for review and approval. On February 9, 2015, the Public Protection Committee accepted the CCP-Executive Committee's recommendations, including the continuation of funding in the amount of $500,000 for short and long-term housing access. Today's action approves the contract with SHELTER, Inc., for $500,000 for short and long-term housing access countywide for the period June 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016, and extends service provision beyond the AB 109 population, though with prioritization of services for those with an AB 109 designation.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Negative action would discontinue short and long-term housing services for the AB 109 Public Safety Realignment Program on June 30, 2015.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
