RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Grant Agreement #29-544-8 (CA1921L9T052000) with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), for McKinney-Vento Act funds, to pay County an amount not to exceed $443,304, for the County’s Continuum of Care Project providing housing and support services for homeless individuals, for the period from December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this agreement will result in an amount not to exceed $443,304, payable to the County from HUD McKinney-Vento Act funds for the County’s Continuum of Care Project. A 25% County match is required and will be fulfilled with current funding allocations.











BACKGROUND:

The Contra Costa Continuum of Care (CoC), through its Inter-jurisdictional Council on Homelessness was awarded funds for CoC Planning. The CoC’s planning needs and proposed activities include: 1) Evaluating the outcomes of CoC and ESG funded projects; 2) Preparing and submitting an application to HUD on behalf of the entire Continuum of Care membership; 3) Conducting a sheltered and unsheltered point-in-time count; and 4) Monitoring recipients and sub-recipients and enforcing compliance with CoC program requirements. The CoC’s Executive Committee, with the CoC coordinator, will coordinate and implement the activities. This will improve the members’ ability to comply with current and new Mckinney-Vento regulations related to their funding from HUD.   
  
On December 15, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Grant Agreement #29-544-7 to receive funds in an amount of $462,917 from HUD for the provision of housing and support services for homeless individuals for the period December 1, 2020 through November 30, 2021.  
  
Approval of Grant Agreement #29-544-8 will allow the County to continue to receive funding for the Continuum of Care project through November 30, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, the County will not receive funding to support the CoC project.
