Approve and Authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute agreement #28-694-11 with the City
of Concord Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), to pay the County an amount not to exceed $12,062, for
the operation of the Adult Interim Housing Program, for the period from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this agreement will result in funds from the City of Concord CDBG to provide adequate emergency
housing and supportive services to individuals year-round. No additional County funds required.
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 900 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.
