SPECIFIC REQUESTS)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
DETERMINE that there is a need to continue with the emergency action taken by the
Board on November 16, 1999 regarding the issue of homelessness in Contra Costa
County.
BACKGROUND:
On November 16, 1999, the Board of Supervisors declared a local emergency,
pursuant to the provisions of Government Code Section 8630, on homelessness in
Contra Costa County.
Government Code Section 8630 required that, for a body which meets weekly that
the need to continue the emergency declaration be reviewed at least every 14 days
until the local emergency is terminated. In no event is the review to take place more
than 21 days after the previous review.
With the winter weather arriving and with no additional resources having been able
to be placed on line to assist in sheltering homeless individuals and families, it is
appropriate for the Board to continue the declaration of a local emergency regarding
homelessness.
