RECOMMENDATIONS

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Housing Authroity Executive Director, or designee, to execute a contract with the City of Pittsburg in an amount not to exceed $168,000 to provide the Housing Authority’s El Pueblo public housing development with additional law enforcement services for the period July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022.

BACKGROUND

For the past twenty-three years (or more), HACCC has contracted with the City of Pittsburg to provide one full-time police officer for additional community-oriented policing duties at the El Pueblo Housing Development. The officer focuses on eliminating drug-related activities, eliminating violent crimes, and working closely with residents to provide services beyond those normally offered by the police.

FISCAL IMPACT

The Housing Authority’s (HACCC) total cost for one year service will not exceed $168,000. Funding for this contract is included in HACCC's current budget using the public housing operating subsidy provided by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION

If the Board of Commissioners does not approve this contract, the City of Pittsburg will not have sufficient resources to continue providing additional law enforcement services to the residents of the El Pueblo public housing community.
