SUBJECT: Extension of Emergency Declaration Regarding Homelessness
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
CONTINUE with the emergency action originally taken by the Board on November 16, 1999
regarding the issue of homelessness in Contra Costa County.
BACKGROUND:
Government Code Section 8630 requires, for a body that meets weekly, that the need to
continue an 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 continuing inclement weather and 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.,
On November 16, 1999, pursuant to Government Code Section 8630, the Board of Supervisors
declared a local emergency on homelessness in Contra Cos unty.
