RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Amendment Agreement #29-806-7 with the City of Concord, to amend Agreement #29-806-6, effective July 1, 2021, to increase the amount payable to the County by $12,500, from $12,500, to a new amount of $25,000 for the provision of homeless outreach services for the Coordinated Outreach, Referral and Engagement (CORE) Program and to extend the termination date from June 30, 2021 to June 30, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment agreement will allow the County to receive an additional amount of $12,500, for fiscal year 2021/2022, from the City of Concord to provide homeless outreach services. No County funding match is required.

BACKGROUND:

CORE teams serve as an entry point into the County’s coordinated entry system for unsheltered persons and work to locate, engage, stabilize and house chronically homeless individuals and families. The County has been providing homeless outreach service under this contract since July 2017.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On December 15, 2020 the Board of Supervisors approved agreement #29-806-6 to receive funds in an amount of $12,500 from the City of Concord for the provision of homeless outreach services for the CORE Program which locates and engages homeless clients throughout Contra Costa County for the period July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021. This agreement includes the County agreeing to indemnify and hold harmless the City of Concord for claims arising out of County’s performance under this contract.

The County received the documents for this agreement from City of Concord on August 11, 2021.

Approval of Amendment Agreement #29-806-7 will allow the County to receive additional funds from the City of Concord to continue providing homeless outreach services, through June 30, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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