RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Agreement #29-604-3 with the City of Walnut Creek, to pay the County an amount not to exceed $17,000 for the operation of the Coordinated Outreach, Referral and Engagement (CORE) Program, for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this agreement will allow the County to receive an amount not to exceed $17,000 ($5,000 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and $12,000 Community Service Grant (CSG) funds) from the City of Walnut Creek to provide homeless outreach services to individuals year-round. No County match is required.

BACKGROUND:

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The CORE Program provides homeless outreach services aimed at identifying unsheltered homeless individuals, transitioned aged youth and families living outside and in locations not meant for human habitations.

On October 24, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Grant Agreement #29-604-2 with the City of Walnut Creek to receive CDBG and CSG funds for the operations of CORE Program from July 6, 2017 through June 30, 2018.

Approval of Agreement #29-604-3 will allow County to continue to receive CDBG and CSG funds to provide outreach services through June 30, 2019. This Agreement includes agreeing to indemnify and hold harmless the Contractor for claims arising out of County’s performance under this Contract.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, County will not receive funding and without such funding, the CORE program may have to operate at a reduced capacity.
