Subject:Housing Opportunities for Persons with HIV/AIDS (HOPWA) Funding Agreements between the City of
Oakland and County of Contra Costa.
BACKGROUND:
The National Affordable Housing Act (Public Law 101-625, approved November 28,
1990) authorizes the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS Program (HOPWA)
to provide states and localities with resources to devise long-term comprehensive
strategies for meeting the housing needs of persons with HIV/AIDS and related diseases.
The City of Oakland (City) is the HOPWA grant recipient for Alameda and Contra Costa
counties. The City allocates the HOPWA funds between the City and counties on a fair
share allocation basis. Approval of a funding agreement with the City of Oakland will
provide $527,426 in FY 2010 funds to the County as administering agent on behalf of the
Urban County and other Contra Costa entitlement jurisdictions (the cities of Antioch,
Concord, Pittsburg, Richmond, and Walnut Creek). These funds may be used for
acquisition, rehabilitation and new construction of housing; supportive services; housing
information services; and certain other housing related activities for low-income persons
with HIV/AIDS.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the funding agreement is not approved, the County would not receive funding for
HOPWA program.
