RECOMMENDATIONS

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Executive Director of the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa, or his designee, to execute a twelve-month contract with Contra Costa County to provide the Housing Authority’s Bayo Vista and Las Deltas public housing developments with additional law enforcement services for the period beginning June 1, 2018 and ending May 31, 2019 in an amount not to exceed $493,000.00.  

BACKGROUND

For over twenty-five years, HACCC has contracted with the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Department to provide two full-time sheriff deputies for additional community-oriented policing duties at the Bayo Vista and Las Deltas Housing Developments. The deputies focus on deterring drug-related activities, eliminating violent crimes, and working closely with residents to provide services beyond those normally offered by the Sheriff's office.

FISCAL IMPACT

The Housing Authority’s (HACCC) total cost for one year service will not exceed $493,000. Funding for this contract is included in HACCC's current budget using the public housing operating subsidy provided by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
