SUBJECT: INCREASING THE CAPACITY OF THE HOMELESS SHELTERS
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
AUTHORIZE the County Administrator and staff to increase the
capacity of the homeless shelters in the County to the extent funds
can be identified.
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this recommendation is to authorize the County
Administrator to use funds that can be identified for homeless
programs, such as donations made for that purpose and Stewart B.
McKinney Homeless Assistance Act funds or other homeless. grant
funds, to increase the beds in the homeless shelters .
The Homeless Shelter in North Concord had been identified to have
additional capacity during the winter months, formerly called the
Winter Shelter Program. The trailers in North Richmond are planned
to house family and children services but those programs are not
yet on line. I believe there is potential capacity for the
homeless in those facilities during the period they are available
which may be utilized as funds are identified.
