Summary of Request:
On March 17, 2020, Governor Newsom signed SB 89 allocating 150 million dollars in emergency funding to local governments to help protect the homeless population in California and reduce the spread of COVID-19 by safely sheltering individuals and providing immediate housing options. In response to SB 89, California Business, Consumer Services, and Housing (BCSH) Agency, California Homeless Coordinating and Financing Council, issued a grant to Health and Human Services Agency to protect the health and safety of people experiencing homelessness and reduce viral spread during the COVID-19 outbreak. While eligible uses for funding are broad and should be determined based on the need of the jurisdiction, the BCSH Agency’s suggested uses include, but are not limited to: Isolation Capacity, including support for the lease of motels and hotels; Emergency Shelter Operations; Shelter Capacity; Street Outreach; Transportation, including to and from shelters and medical care; and Staffing, including support for infectious disease preparedness. Jurisdictions may use these funds as reimbursement for expenditures as of March 18, 2020.
In order to avoid loss of funding, the Health and Human Services Agency signed and returned the Agreement to the State on May 1, 2020. Today’s item requests ratification of submission of the signed Agreement prior to Board approval.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Return to staff for alternative handling.
