SUBJECT: Authorization to submit the 2008 County Consolidated Application
for McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Funding #28-592-7
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND JUSTIFICATION
(!�7
RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE AND AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, on behalf of the
County, cities, and other homeless service providers, to submit a Consolidated Application for
the 2008 McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Funding along with the necessary
certifications and assurances to the Housing and Urban Development Department (HUD) in an
amount not to exceed $10,000,000 to provide supportive housing and services to homeless
individuals and families in Contra Costa County for fiscal year 09/10.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No County funds required.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
In 2007, Contra Costa County received just over $7.5 million in McKinney-Vento Homeless
Assistance funds. The annual Consolidated Application, in response to the Housing and
Urban Development Notice of Funds Availability (NOFA) for McKinney-Vento Homeless
Assistance Funding, is a primary source of funding to Contra Costa County agencies for
providing housing and services for the homeless. Historically, Contra Costa County has
received substantially more than our established "pro rata" need - all of which goes to
supportive housing and services to homeless individuals and families in Contra Costa
County.
