Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
August 18, 2020, Item 4(u), the Board adopted Resolution 20-097 authorizing receipt of Round 1 of the California State Department of Housing and Community Development's Emergency Solutions Grant CARES Act funds, not to exceed $1,410,200.
November 17, 2020, Item 4(o), the Board adopted Resolution 20-157, authorizing receipt of Rounds 1 and 2 of the California State Department of Housing and Community Development's Emergency Solutions Grant CARES Act funds, not to exceed $5,463,823.
January 27, 2022, Item 3(ac), the Board approved Agreement No. BOS 22-027 with MCAVHN Care and Prevention Network in the Amount of $344,288 to provide qualifying services using CARES Act funds.
Summary of Request:
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act passed by Congress on March 27, 2020, included funds for homeless services through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG-CV) to support Continua of Care (CoC) in addressing Coronavirus among those experiencing homelessness. On June 1, 2020, the Department of Housing and Community Development released a Notice of Funding Availability for the ESG-CV. The ESG-CV provides funding to prevent, prepare for and respond to Coronavirus among individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness or receiving homeless assistance, and to support additional homeless assistance activities to mitigate the impacts created by Coronavirus. ESG-CV funds for non-entitlement CoC jurisdictions, such as Mendocino County, are distributed to State Governments, which then release funds directly to the CoC. The total award of the ESG-CV for Mendocino County is $5,463,823.
On January 27, 2022, the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors approved Agreement No. BOS 22-027 with MCAVHN Care and Prevention Network in the amount of $344,288 to provide street outreach, non-congregate shelter at local motels, rapid re-housing services, and housing case management services to people experiencing homelessness in Mendocino County, from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022. The proposed Amendment to Agreement No. BOS 22-027 extends the term through September 30, 2023, enabling MCAVHN Care and Prevention Network to continue providing needed services. Once the proposed Amendment is executed, it will be effective for the full term of the Agreement, from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2023.
Due to an unexpected one-year extension to the revenue contract with HCD, and the unpredictable nature of necessary related services, this Amendment was not anticipated, therefore is retroactive.
