RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Amendment Agreement #28-660-18 with the City of Antioch for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding, effective July 1, 2019, to amend contract #28-660-16 (as amended by Amendment Agreement #28-660-17), to add an amount not to exceed $10,000 to a new total of $35,212 and extend the termination date from June 30, 2019 to June 30, 2020 for the operation of the Adult Interim Housing Program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this Amendment Agreement will result in an additional amount not to exceed $10,000 paid to the County. No County match is required.

BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department applied for funding from the City of Antioch to operate the emergency shelter program at full capacity on a year-round basis. Each year, the shelters provide interim housing and support services to over 800 individuals. The CDBG program, funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, is a source of public funding providing valuable housing and service benefits to homeless persons of Contra Costa County. Without such funding, the emergency shelter program may have to operate at a reduced capacity.

On January 16, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Grant Agreement #28-660-16, as amended by Amendment Agreement #28-660-17, with the City of Antioch to receive CDBG funding for the operation of the County’s Adult Interim Housing Program for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. This Agreement requires the County to indemnify the City for claims arising out of the County’s performance under the Agreement.

Approval of Amendment Agreement #28-660-18 will allow the County to continue to receive CDBG funding from the City of Antioch, for service and operation of the County’s Adult Interim Housing Program through June 30, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Agreement is not approved, the County will not receive funding and without such funding, the emergency shelter program may need to operate at a reduced capacity.
