Subject:Application #28-660-10 with City of Antioch CDBG funding for the operation of the Adult Interim Housing
Program for Adults
BACKGROUND:
The Health Services Department seeks funding to operate the emergency shelter program at
full capacity on a year-round basis. Each year, the shelters provide interim housing and
support services to over 800 individuals per year. The Community Development Block
Grant program, funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, is a
source of public funding providing valuable housing and service benefits to homeless
persons of Contra Costa County. Without such funding, the emergency shelter program may
have to operate at a reduced capacity.
Approval of Application #28-660-10 will allow the County to submit application of CDBG
funding to the City of Antioch, for continuous services and operation of the County’s Adult
Interim Housing Program and to perform all responsibilities in relation to receipt of the
funding for the period from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2014.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, County will not receive funding and without such funding,
the emergency shelter program may have to operate at a reduced capacity.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
