APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Executive Director of the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa, or his
designee, to execute a contract with Contra Costa County in an amount not to exceed $95,000 to allow the District
Attorney’s Office to provide investigative services for housing fraud in the Section 8 and public housing assistance
programs for the period July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014.
BACKGROUND
In order to enhance HACCC’s efforts to reduce fraud in the Section 8 and Public Housing Programs, HACCC has
entered into an Interagency Agreement with the District Attorney’s office to provide investigative services for
suspected housing fraud cases. An Investigator from the District Attorney’s Office has been assigned four days per
week to work for HACCC. HACCC has an existing contract with the District Attorney’s office for these services that
expires on June 30, 2013 with a not to exceed amount of $92,000. Thus far HACCC has spent $67,666.95 on the
existing contract. This contract is being brought to the Board for approval because combined the total dollar amount
spent on these two contracts will exceed the $100,000 threshold required for Board approval.
