CITY MANAGER MEMORANDUM
D
ATE: August 18, 2025
TO: City Council; Antioch Police Oversight Commission
S
UBMITTED BY: Bessie Marie Scott, City Manager
SUBJECT: Status of the United States Department of Justice (USDOJ) Memorandum of Agreement (MOA)
BACKGROUND:
It has come to the attention of city staff that some individuals have publicly claimed that our city is, or might be, out of compliance with the USDOJ Memorandum of Agreement (MOA). As the City Manager, I am happy to take this opportunity to address these concerns and have asked our Consultant on this matter, Manjit Sappal, to formally provide an update on the status of all elements within the MOA. His information is attached hereto for your reference (Attachment A).
T
he following considerations are also noted for your review and knowledge:
1. T
he USDOJ agrees with us that the dates outlined in the MOA are not set in stone.
As I have stated multiple times, there is a mutual understanding that these dates are meant to guide the City in its reform efforts and should not be used in a way that hinders the work being done. Strict adherence to the dates was never the goal, as we all understood that such a comprehensive agreement would take time to implement operationally for the city. Instead, the focus remains on the ultimate objective: fixing the issues that caused this situation in the first place.
W
e will move the deadlines forward for the following placeholder areas within the MOA that we knew would need date changes after bringing the consultant on board.
a. C
ommunity Engagement Plan;
#5.02.02
b. T he APD Self-Assessment (Currently in progress); and c. T he APD Language Access Plan.
By advancing the deadlines in these areas and completing many major tasks early, APD is positioning itself for substantial compliance in multiple areas. FYI - The Community Liaison Officer was recently hired in late July.
2. A key responsibility of the Consultant’s role is to evaluate whether the City is in compliance with USDOJ’s expectations and to either collaborate with us to achieve compliance or report to USDOJ in an effort to compel compliance. Mr. Sappal has been working closely with the City Manager, the Chief of Police, and the City Attorney to ensure compliance and to carefully and accurately report our progress to USDOJ.
3. Since we were able to craft a deal that did not include court oversight, it is important to note that ultimately, it is up to the USDOJ to decide whether they are satisfied with our performance. My understanding is that they are indeed satisfied. Please recognize that the staff team worked tirelessly on these negotiations over the fall and winter, bringing the settlement agreement to the finish line early this year. It took the expertise of city staff, working many hours, to assure the USDOJ that this city could comply without federal oversight. This same expertise currently helps us stay in compliance, as staff intentionally implements the components in the agreement every day.
4. No one besides the USDOJ can take any action regarding our MOA, meaning the agreement does not provide a legal cause of action for anyone to file a formal complaint about our progress. While someone could inform the USDOJ that, in their view, we are out of compliance, the only opinion that truly matters at the end of the day is the USDOJ’s.
5. Although CalDOJ is not a party to this agreement, they have been closely monitoring our progress and are well aware of our MOA. In fact, they have met with us and USDOJ while we worked on this settlement. My understanding is that they are not only satisfied but also quite impressed with our progress so far. At their request, I will meet with CalDOJ in person in Oakland on August 22, 2025, as they want to continue understanding how our city has been so successful in quickly and effectively implementing the terms set out in the MOA.
NEXT STEPS:
What we need to move forward and continue complying with our current standards is to proactively engage with the community throughout the city. We will depend on the City Council and the Antioch Police Oversight Commission to support APD and the city in this effort. We require reputable messengers to share the progress we're making and to serve as a feedback loop between the community, APD, and the Consultant. It is more critical
than ever to provide accurate information to the public. We are still involved in active litigation that may lead to the city entering additional agreements. Accordingly, opposing counsel and the public are listening carefully to everything these bodies say and communicate publicly from the dais. We should promote messages of hope, joy, and progress within our city. It's essential to be clear and transparent when we are doing well and honest about areas where improvement is needed. In this case, we are indeed doing well. As your City Manager, my goal is to ensure this truth is shared across all channels.
To that end, I suggest that APOC develop a comprehensive Community Engagement Strategy that can serve as a strong bridge between APD and the community, aiming to continue building trust, fostering transparency, and helping shape public safety strategies in collaboration with our residents. I have attached an example here (Attachment B). We need youth roundtables on policing and public safety, to leverage our Neighborhood Watch groups, and to better understand the issues affecting our ethnic communities here in Antioch. Additionally, our business community and elderly residents must have t heir voices heard, along with our faith-based and community-based organizations. In this way, we as a city will demonstrate that civilian input is not just symbolic but actively influences outcomes. Furthermore, by showing responsiveness to community concerns, we can strengthen the legitimacy of both the Commission and APD.
I hope you find the attached report helpful, and we look forward to continuing our work in this area to achieve “full and effective” compliance as soon as possible. When we are all on the same page, messaging accurate information to the community, it allows us to celebrate our successes and to highlight our great work. Note t hat w e will present a comprehensive report to the City Council in September, where Mr. Sappal will provide an update on all areas. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions.

Dear Ms. Scott,
I wanted to provide an update on the current APD status regarding the DOJ–APD Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) implementation, incorporating recent developments from June through August 2025. Chart 1.1 provides the goals, timelines, and project status.
1. Early Completion – The Community Liaison Officer position selection was completed well ahead of the January 3, 2027, deadline, demonstrating proactive progress on a critical community engagement requirement.
2. Policy Review and Development – Policy review is ongoing, focusing on high-priority policies including Use of Force, Bias-Based Policing, and Canine policies, with a November 2025 deadline. The process is methodical, with California DOJ participation and feedback.
3. Training Initiatives – All officers have completed 8 hours of in-person interactive Procedural Justice/Principled Policing training, led by APD Sgt. Price and consultant Shannon Starzyk. The Safe Streets Act component will be added going forward.
IADLEST-certified training is being planned for delivery by next quarter, although we are finding it challenging to locate an instructor with this certification.
4. Community Engagement Efforts – APOC subcommittee meetings of the Community Engagement Ad Hoc Committee are underway to shape the Community Engagement Plan. This work is well underway despite original timelines being adjusted to accommodate consultant onboarding. A Community Engagement Plan will be completed and I am working with DOJ to extend the due date, based on the fact that the deadline was based on the start date of the consultant, which occurred several months after the MOA was signed. The same applies to the APD self-assessment and Language Access Plan that will require additional time. US DOJ indicated that extensions would be granted as the consultant started sometime after the agreement was signed and these due dates were based on the hiring of the consultant.
5. Recruitment, Backgrounds, and Promotions – Background investigation protocols will be assessed. Promotional processes for lieutenant and captain ranks have been monitored and recruitment for the Community Liaison Officer was finalized.
6. Data and Analysis – Initial access to APD systems is enabling demographic and complaint data collection. Work is underway to develop protocols for data analysis. Data collection and analysis remain a challenging area.
7. Adjustments to Timelines – Due to the consultant’s contract becoming effective May 28, 2025, several deadlines have been revised to reflect realistic completion schedules.
These changes allow us to maintain momentum while ensuring quality implementation.
USDOJ is aware and concurs with us that the goal is to provide APD the opportunity to provide the outcomes rather than sacrifice quality to meet dealines.
8. Next Steps:
• Deliver IADLEST-certified training next quarter.
• Complete policy revisions and submit to DOJ.
• Implement community engagement schedule in collaboration with APOC. • Hire Data and Statistical Policy Analyst.
• Complete Language Access Plan with DOJ consultation.
As it stands, MOA requirements are being met and APD is moving forward without hesitation. We will need to move deadlines forward for the Community Engagement Plan, the APD self-assessment (currently in progress), and the Language Access Plan. By moving key deadlines forward and completing major tasks early, APD is positioning itself for substantial compliance in multiple areas. I have been impressed with the progress and I appreciate the weekly meetings involving you, Chief Vigil, and Mr.
Kundinger to keep APD on track in pursuit of full compliance with the MOA.

• • Communications Campaign: Develop plain-language materials (FAQs, social media posts, short videos) explaining oversight.
• • Community Listening Tour: Commissioners attend neighborhood association meetings, faith-based gatherings, and youth forums to hear concerns directly.
Quarter 2: Transparency & Education
• • Public Dashboard Launch: Release an online dashboard with data on use of force, complaints, and stops (updated quarterly).
• • “Know Your Rights & Oversight” Workshops: Partner with local libraries or community centers to explain complaint processes, police policies, and commission powers.
• • Ride-Along/Walk-Along Program: Pair commissioners and community leaders with officers for firsthand observation.
Quarter 3: Co-Creation & Problem-Solving
• • Community Safety Forums (by district): Small-group discussions to identify neighborhood-specific issues (e.g., traffic safety, youth violence prevention). • • Policy Input Sessions: Gather public input on proposed changes (e.g., body-worn camera policy, complaint review procedures).
• • Youth Advisory Circle: Launch a youth council to advise on public safety issues from a youth perspective.
Quarter 4: Reflection, Reporting & Institutionalization • • Annual Oversight Report: Publish a plain-language report summarizing data, community input, and commission recommendations.
• • Community Feedback Sessions: Present the report at public meetings and gather feedback on the commission’s work.
• • Partnership Agreements: Formalize collaborations with community groups, schools, and service providers for ongoing safety initiatives.
• • Strategic Planning Retreat: Incorporate lessons learned into the next year’s engagement plan.
Ongoing Throughout the Year
• • Social Media & Newsletter Updates: Share updates in real time, highlight success stories, and showcase community-police collaboration.
• • Open Public Meetings: Ensure commission meetings are accessible, with time for public comment and plain-language summaries.
• • Commissioner Office Hours: Monthly drop-in sessions for residents to speak directly with commissioners.
Outcome
By the end of the year, the commission will have built visibility, engaged diverse residents, co-created public safety strategies, and demonstrated accountability through reporting.

Agenda Item #
STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of September 9, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBMITTED BY: Derek P. Cole, Interim City Attorney
SUBJECT: Approval of a Restated Agreement with Bessie M. Scott for City Manager Services Making Non-substantive and Clerical Changes Only
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council approve a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Restated Agreement with Bessie M. Scott for City Manager Services.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. The proposed amendments to the City Manager’s employment agreement are purely non- substantive and clerical. This is merely a “clean- up” revision to address typographical error s in the City Manager’s employment agreement and remove one contradictory term.
DISCUSSION
The City Manager’s employment agreement with the City became effective on August 28, 2024. As drafted, the agreement included some clerical errors and included one contradictory term about the agreement’s effective date. This Office proposes that these be addressed as follows:
• Section 10, first bulleted item: remove the references to a Paragraph “A” so only “Section 2” is referenced. (There is no Section “2.A” in the agreement.)
• Section 10, second bulleted item: remove duplicative phrase “on to.”
• Section 10, second bulleted item: replace “Counsel” with “Council.”
• Section 21, delete in entirety. The preamble on the first page of the agreement indicates the agreement is “made and entered” on August 28, 2024, making this Section 21 contradictory on the subject of the Agreement’s effective date.

STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBMITTED BY: Bessie Marie Scott, City Manager
SUBJECT: City Council Overnight Travel to the 4th Annual National Offices of Violence Prevention Network Convening on September 10-12, 2025, in St. Louis, MO.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize overnight travel for Council Member Torres-Walker from September 10-12, 2025 for 4th Annual National Offices of Violence Prevention Network Convening representing the City of Antioch. It is further recommended that the City Council authorize the associated expenditure in an amount not to exceed $2,000.00.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total estimated cost for one participant to attend/travel is $2,000.00. The excerpts from the U.S. General Services Administration are attached to this report as Attachment B. The region used to calculate the per-diem rates is St. Louis, MO. There are sufficient funds in the Public Safety and Community Resources training budget to cover the conference cost.
DISCUSSION
The National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform (NICJR) and its partners have worked to create and provide technical assistance to Offices of Violence Prevention (OVP) and Neighborhood Safety throughout the country for more than 15 years. NICJR worked for nearly two years to organize, plan and coordinate with a group of OVP Directors to plan the creation of a National OVP Network. NICJR partners with Advance Peace, Center for American Progress and the Vera Institute to lead this national initiative. Community safety should not be the exclusive province of policing and the criminal justice system.
Investments should be made in community-based interventions, prevention, and community development.
To that end, the National OVP Network serves as a learning community with the goal of significantly increasing the expertise and effectiveness of these city agencies. The Network hosts convenings, provide trainings and presentations on effective violence

EXCEPTIONS
The City Council may approve exceptions to this policy on a case-by-case basis for special or unique circumstances.

General instructions for completing and processing this form are provided in a separate document.
(B) AUTHORIZATION PROCESSS
During the budget process, the City Council shall appropriate a budget allotment for each Council Members travel. If a Council Member exceeds their budget allotment or the Council Member is requesting travel outside of the continental United States, the City Council shall decide, through City Council action if attendance to any conference is approved.
After travel, the Travel Authorization report must be finalized. Finance will review for receipts and policy compliance.
(C) METHODS OF REIMBURSEMENT
There are three ways to request and receive payment for travel and travel- related expenditures: (1) advance payment, (2) reimbursement for actual expenditures, and (3) credit card usage.
(1) Advance payments: Elected Officials may request a cash advance for meals. For advance payment, the request must be submitted to the Finance Department two weeks prior to the travel date for the Finance Department to process such request.
EXHIBIT A
March 24, 2020
4 Advance payment must be requested through TA/WR with a copy of the training, meeting or conference announcement as proof of official City business trip. The advance will be within the IRS approved per diem rates for meals and incidental expenses (M&IE) for the location/area visited as listed in Publication 1542. The value of meals provided at conferences, training, or other travel programs will be deducted from the cash advance at the following rate:
Breakfast - 20% Lunch - 30% Dinner - 50%
Other items, such as conference registration, lodging, and air fare may be paid directly to the vendor in advance of travel.
Upon return from travel, all cash advances must be documented with original itemized receipts.
(2) Reimbursement: Elected and Appointed Officials shall be reimbursed for all eligible expenditures upon return from travel for items that have original receipts. A Travel Authorization/Warrant Request with original receipts will be paid by Finance within the regular accounts payable time schedule. Reimbursement claims should be submitted within 30 days from the return from travel, and no reimbursements may be made that cross over fiscal years.
(3) Credit Card Usage: Elected and Appointed Officials may use personal credit cards to pay for travel expenses. Original receipts must be included with the Travel Authorization Warrant Request to be eligible for reimbursement.
(D) ELIGIBLE EXPENDITURES
Meals and Incidental Expenses (M & IE)
Meals: City funds shall not be used to purchase alcohol or reimburse Elected or Appointed Officials for alcohol related costs. Meal costs will be reimbursed as supported by original itemized receipts.
Personal Meals: All expenditures must be documented and reimbursement will not exceed the meal schedule listed above.
Business Meals: To qualify as a business meal, the identity of the participants and the business purpose of the discussion must be substantiated.
Incidental Expenses: Those related to City business will be reimbursed at cost as supported by original receipts (e.g., tolls and taxi cabs).
In no event shall the reimbursement for meals and incidental expenses exceed the IRS approved per diem rates for the location visited as listed in Publication 1542.
Lodging: The City will pay lodging expenses for Elected or Appointed
EXHIBIT A
March 24, 2020
5 Officials during official travel requiring one or more overnight stays. The City will pay for lodging for the evening preceding or subsequent to a meeting or business event when the Elected or Appointed Official would have to travel at unreasonably early or late hours to reach his or her destination.
Elected or Appointed Officials shall make an effort to obtain lodging at or near the facility where official City business is to take place to minimize travel time and transportation costs. The City will pay only for standard single rooms for individual Elected Officials. If lodging is in connection with a conference, lodging expenses must not exceed the group rate published by the conference sponsor. If conference rates are not available, government rates must be requested. Lodging rates that are equal to or less than the government rates are presumed to be reasonable and hence reimbursable for purposes of this policy.
If a double room is requested by an Elected or Appointed Official because he or she is accompanied by a spouse or other person, the difference between the single and double room rate shall be considered the Elected or Appointed Official's personal expense.
Elected or Appointed Officials shall cancel any reservations for lodging they will not use.
Any charge for an unused reservation shall be considered the Elected or Appointed Official's personal expense unless failure to cancel the reservation was due to circumstances beyond the Elected Official's control.
Personal Entertainment: No reimbursement will be made for personal entertainment.
Guests: If a guest accompanies an Elected or Appointed Official, only the cost of the Elected or Appointed Official will be reimbursed. All costs above a single person will be borne by the Elected or Appointed Official.
Discounts: If offered early registrations should be obtained whenever possible.
Telephone/Internet: The City will pay for all City-related business telephone calls or internet use by an Elected or Appointed Official while traveling on authorized City business. If approved prior to travel, the City may pay for personal internet use up to $5.00 per day for authorized overnight business travel within California and up to $10.00 per day for all other authorized overnight business travel.
Transportation: All travel will be made by the method most cost effective for the City. Considerations such as time, distance traveled and cost of transportation should be factors in arriving at the lowest cost.
Elected and Appointed Officials shall endeavor to book air travel to take advantage of discounts and nonrefundable ticket fares where practical. All flights shall be booked at coach class or equivalent level. Any additional costs incurred due to personal travel added on before or after the trip will be paid by the Elected or Appointed Official.
EXHIBIT A
March 24, 2020
6 Elected and Appointed Officials are encouraged to use their personal vehicles as transportation to and from airports. The cost of traveling from home to the airport will be paid for from monthly stipend. If a personal vehicle is left at the airport for more than one day, parking will be reimbursed per day based on long term parking rates or other transportation to and from the airport, whichever is less. Parking will not be reimbursed at the short term parking rate.
The use of rental vehicles is discouraged and shall be authorized only when no other mode of transportation is available or when alternate transportation would be more expensive or impractical. Elected or Appointed Officials must understand that the City's vehicle insurance coverage does not cover the individual driver of a rental car. Therefore, the City Official shall confirm personal coverage under their personal insurance or purchase additional insurance from the rental agency at their own expense. Rental vehicles shall be driven only by Elected or Appointed Officials included on the car rental agreement. Elected or Appointed Officials shall be reimbursed for reasonable taxi fare, airport van, or other public transportation in order to travel from their destination airport to their hotel.
VII. REPORTING OF EXPENDITURES
If the City reimburses an Elected or Appointed Official for attending a "meeting" as defined under the Brown Act 1, the Official shall provide a brief written or oral report regarding the "meeting" at the next regular meeting of the Council or applicable commission, board or committee to which the Official belongs. For other educational seminars or events for which expenses were reimbursed by the City, the Official may provide a brief written or oral report at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Council or applicable commission, board or committee to which the Official belongs.
VIII. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
After being sworn in, Elected or Appointed Officials will be required to sign a statement formally acknowledging receipt and acceptance of this policy.
1 The Brown Act (California Government Code section 54952.2) defines a meeting as including "any congregation of majority of the members of a legislative body at the same time and place to hear, discuss, or deliberate upon any item that is within the subject matter jurisdiction of the legislative body or the local agency to which it pertains."

SUBJ
ECT: Amendment to the Fiscal Year 2026 Budget to Fund One (1) Housing Manager and Two (2) Housing Services Coordinators in Lieu of One (1) Administrative Analyst I , One (1) Unhoused Resident Coordinator, and One (1) Housing Program Specialist which will be paid from a combination of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds, and Housing Successor Funds.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the resolution amending the Public Safety and Community Resources Housing and Homelessness Division personnel budget in the amount of $79,025 for fiscal year 2025-26 to fund one (1) Housing Manager and two (2) Housing Services Coordinators in lieu of one (1) Administrative Analyst I , one (1) Unhoused Resident Coordinator, and one (1) Housing Program Specialist and authorizing the City Manager or designee to make the necessary fiscal year 2026 budget adjustments.
F
ISCAL IMPACT
This action will result in an increase in expenditures of up to $79,025 for fiscal year 2026.
These expenditures will be paid from a combination of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds, and Housing Successor Funds. This action will have no impact on the General Fund through fiscal year 2027. However, additional funds will need to be identified in future years to sustain these positions and services.
DI
SCUSSION
The Housing and Homelessness Division of the Public Safety and Community Resources Department is responsible for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Unhoused Resident Services, and the Cit y’s Fair Housing Program. The demand for housing and homelessness services continues to grow, with new tenant protection ordinances, expanded outreach to unhoused residents, and increasing state oversight of Antioch City Council Report
September 9, 2025 Agenda Item #7 2
housing compliance. The Division’s current structure does not provide the capacity needed to meet these obligations or position the City for future program expansion.
The Division currently consists of an Administrative Analyst I, Unhoused Resident Coordinator, and Housing Program Specialist. Currently, there is no reporting structure within the Division, with all three positions reporting to the Public Safety and Community Resources Director and no coordinated strategy for carrying out a targeted approach to addressing the various needs of our community members along the housing continuum despite program investments by the city in this area. The Administrative Analyst I and Unhoused Resident Coordinator positions are currently vacant. The duties of the Administrative Analyst I are being performed by a longstanding consultant, and the duties of the Unhoused Resident Coordinator are being performed by other staff.
This flat structure has created significant challenges in ensuring proper oversight, accountability, and compliance with complex state and federal housing regulations.
Programs such as CDBG, tenant protections, fair housing enforcement, and affordable housing initiatives require strict adherence to reporting, monitoring, and fiscal stewardship requirements. Without dedicated managerial capacity, the City faces increased risk of audit findings, funding claw backs, and potential liability exposure. In addition, the lack of consistent leadership has limited the City’s ability to strengthen and expand Unhoused Resident Services, including bridge housing, shelter referrals, and supportive service partnerships.
To address these challenges, the City Manager is proposing a reorganization of the Housing and Homelessness Division. Under the new structure, two Housing Services Coordinators would report to a Housing Manager, who would in turn report to the Public Safety and Community Resources Director. This structure will provide clear lines of supervision, allow for greater collaboration within the Division, and ensure staff can cover and scale all program areas while building redundancy for continuity of operations.
Reclassifying the Unhoused Resident Coordinator and Housing Program Specialist into two Housing Services Coordinators will have several advantages. Staff recognizes that by creating positions that are more general and less specialized, the potential candidate pool will be increased and there will be a greater chance of recruiting highly qualified candidates. It will also simplify the division of labor, as the Housing Manager will have the ability to assign program areas to each incumbent depending on their individual expertise.
Importantly, the position reclassified from Housing Program Specialist will continue to provide dedicated support to the City Attorney’s Office in administering and enforcing the City’s rental housing programs, ensuring continuity in this critical area. The Housing Division will then be able to work on all program areas collaboratively, allowing for redundancy within the division, ensuring that programs will continue seamlessly even if one if the positions is vacant or an incumbent is out of the office.
Equally important, the reorganization will strengthen the City’s capacity to deliver services with an equity lens, ensuring programs are implemented with empathy, cultural responsiveness, and measurable outcomes for residents with diverse backgrounds and needs. Although the recent Point in Time Count for Antioch showed a decrease in the Antioch City Council Report
September 9, 2025 Agenda Item #7 3
number of unhoused residents within the city, this issue is endemic and will not be going away anytime soon. To get to “functional zero” homelessness, every area on the continuum of homelessness – to include prevention, emergency shelter, rapid rehousing, and permanent supportive housing- will require st rategic interventions and sustainable approaches to address homelessness and increase services for the at-risk and unhoused population of our community here in Antioch. It is noted that the entire city is impacted by the lack of addressing the needs of the most marginalized within our community, and as a collective we should compassionately and intentionally address th e root cause issues impacting those in Antioch who are at risk of being unhoused or are currently/ intermittently experiencing homelessness.
The recommended action would change the current structure of the Housing and Homelessness Division as illustrated below:
Existing (Adopted FY 2026) Proposed Fiscal Impact 2025-26 Administrative Analyst I: 1
FTE
Housing Manager: 1 FTE $67,851

Housing Program Specialist:

TOTAL: 3 FTE TOTAL: 3 FTE TOTAL: $79,025
The Administrative Analyst I and Housing Program Specialist are currently funded by a combination of Housing Successor Funds, PLHA Funds, and CDBG Funds. The actual amount charged to each fund is flexible and based on the number of hours each staff person works on each program area. The available funding for these positions is detailed below:

PLHA Fund $17,500
TOTAL $721,401
Antioch City Council Report
September 9, 2025 Agenda Item #7 4
The next table shows what the administration costs of the Housing Division will be after the reorganization:

Successor Fund
Internal Services $74,546 Allocation of other
supporting departments
Software – City Data Services $15,000 Grant and Data
Management Software
TOTAL $808,368
As illustrated, the tables show a funding shortfall of $86,967. The staffing table assumes that all positions are filled for the entire fiscal year; however, due to current vacancies, this will not be the case for the current year, and actual expenditures are projected to be lower. It also assumes the positions will be filled at the highest salary step, which may not be the case. In future years, once all positions are filled, additional funding will need to be identified to address the shortfall. As such, these positions will be advertised as project positions which exist depending on funding. While the Housing Successor Fund is projected to sunset in 3–4 years, staff are proactively planning for long-term sustainability.
Future grant opportunities, such as the awarded Encampment Resolution Fund and other state/ federal housing initiatives, will be pursued to reduce reliance on the General Fund and align City programs with regional and state housing priorities. The proposed reorganization will strengthen the City’s ability to compete for these resources and ensure housing and homelessness services remain responsive and effective in the years ahead.
Even with this reorganization, the Housing and Homelessness Division will remain limited in its capacity relative to the scope of community need, although this reorganization will assist greatly in scaling service delivery more than what is currently happening. For comparison, the City of Antioch will have 3.0 FTE in its Housing Division under this proposal, while the City of Concord, a city of similar size offering comparable housing and community service programs, staffs its Housing and Community Services Division with
6.5 FTE. This demonstrates that the staffing level being proposed, while an improvement, still falls short of what is truly needed to meet the demand in Antioch. This action represents an important step toward strengthening oversight and program delivery, but additional growth in staffing and resources will be necessary in the future to fully address the complex and evolving housing and homelessness challenges faci ng Antioch. It is important that the City Council recognize that while this res tructuring builds a stronger foundation, it will not by itself resolve the broader issues of housing affordability and homelessness in the community.
Addressing affordable housing and homelessness requires an ongoing, collective commitment and significant investment; these challenges are pervasive across the region and will not resolve without sustained action. The City of Antioch is actively and Antioch City Council Report
September 9, 2025 Agenda Item #7 5
intentionally pursuing all available funding opportunities to expand its capacity, strengthen partnerships, and ensure meaningful progress toward housing stability and homelessness reduction for its residents.

five additional member cities or
individual members.
How it works: Cal Cities
Resolutions and the General Assembly
General Assembly
General Resolutions Policy Committees
Developing League of California Cities policy is a dynamic process that engages a wide range of members to ensure Cal Cities represents cities with one voice. These policies directly guide Cal Cities’ advocacy to promote local decision-making, and lobby against statewide policies that erode local control.
The resolutions process and General Assembly is one way that city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy. If a resolution is approved at the General Assembly, it becomes official Cal Cities policy. Here’s how resolutions and the General Assembly work.
The petitioned
resolution is an
alternate method
to introduce policy
proposals during
the annual conference. The
petition must be signed by
voting delegates from 10% of
member cities, and submitted to
the Cal Cities President at least
24 hours before the beginning
of the General Assembly.
Petitioned Resolutions
The Cal Cities
President assigns
general resolutions
to policy committees
where members
review, debate, and recommend
positions for each policy proposal.
Recommendations are forwarded
to the Resolutions Committee.
Who’s who
The Resolutions Committee
includes representatives
from each Cal Cities
diversity caucus, regional
division, municipal
department, and policy
committee, as well as
individuals appointed by
the Cal Cities president.
Voting delegates
are appointed by each
member city; every city
has one voting delegate.
The General Assembly is a
meeting of the collective
body of all voting
delegates —one from
every member city.
Seven policy committees
meet throughout the year
to review and recommend
positions to take on bills
and regulatory proposals.
Policy committees include
members from each Cal
Cities diversity caucus,
regional division, and
municipal department,
as well as individuals
appointed by the Cal
Cities president.
During the General Assembly, voting delegates
debate and consider general and petitioned
resolutions forwarded by the Resolutions
Committee. Potential Cal Cities bylaws
amendments are also considered at this meeting.
Cal Cities policy
development is a member-
informed process,
grounded in the voices and
experiences of city officials
throughout the state.

The Resolutions
Committee considers
all resolutions. General
Resolutions approved

either a policy committee
or the Resolutions Committee are next
