Kristine Solseng, County Census Staff, Gayle Israel, Chief of Staff, District II and Teresa Gerringer, County BOS District III Staff were also present. Due to new information gathered, the Finance Subcommittee reviewed the June 17, 2017 Steering Committee recommendation to the Board of Supervisors to allocate $500,000 to the Census Outreach effort and proposes the following changes to the line item allocations: Grant Funding at $350,000, including census promotional items to support grant-funded activities; Technology Access at $125,000, and $25,000 to a new category to specifically target homeless outreach. A copy of the proposed budget is attached.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
RECEIVE and FILE the Finance Subcommittee Record of Action of the June 21, 2019 and July 8, 2019 Finance Subcommittee, and DISCUSS and CONSIDER APPROVING the recommendation to the Board of Supervisors to allocate $500,000 to the Census Outreach effort with the revised allocations recommended by the Finance Subcommittee.
Fiscal Impact (if any):
An allocation from the County would require a transfer from the County's General Fund Reserve and would require approval by 4/5 of the Board of Supervisors. The revised recommendation allocation does not change the total amount of $500,000 previously approved by the 2020 Census Steering Committee, the recommendation only changes the distribution.
