Information
Referral History:
On February 11, 1997, the Board of Supervisors referred to the Family and Human Services Committee (F&HS) the subject of the Public Service Portion of the Community Services Block Grant (CDBG) Program. Therefore, the Department of Conservation and Development reports to F&HS at least annually regarding recommendations for the Public Services category and Emergency Solutions Grant funding allocations.
On February 22, 2017, the Department of Conservation and Development presented to F&HS an update on the two agencies selected to provide street outreach services and other related services to homeless populations in the County. F&HS approved the department's recommendation.
On April 24, 2017, the Department of Conservation and Development presented to F&HS the Public Services category and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funding allocation recommendations for fiscal years 2017-18, 2018-19, and 2019-20 based on anticipated federal funding allocations.
Referral Update:
On June 14, 2017 the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) released allocation amounts for the County's ESG program, which included an increase of approximately $95,000 than anticipated by the Department of Conservation and Development in April. Therefore, the department is returning to F&HS with revised recommendations for the ESG fiscal years 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20.
Please see the attached report and spreadsheet for the revised funding recommendations.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
APPROVE the revised staff recommendations for Emergency Solutions Grant funding for fiscal years 2017-18, 2018-19, and 2019-20, and DIRECT the Department of Conservation and Development to forward the approved recommendations, inclusive of other Community Development Block Grant categories as previously approved by F&HS on April 24, 2017, for Board of Supervisors approval.
