CONSENT ITEM
E-10

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
VIA: SERGIO GONZALEZ, CITY MANAGER
FROM: LUCY DEMIRJIAN, SENIOR PROJECT MANAGER
DATE: AUGUST 17, 2026
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE MEMORANDUM OF

AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE SAN GABRIEL VALLEY COUNCIL OF

GOVERNMENTS AND THE CITY OF AZUSA FOR DISTRIBUTION AND

USE OF MEASURE A LOCAL SOLUTIONS FUNDS FOR FISCAL YEAR
2026-27
BACKGROUND:

In November 2024, Los Angeles County voters approved Measure A, a countywide ½ cent sales tax that replaces Measure H. Measure A is expected to generate over $1billion annually to maintain existing homeless housing and services to support people currently experiencing homelessness in finding permanent solutions and expanding efforts to prevent homelessness in LA County.

Measure A requires at-least 15% (or approximately $96.3 million) of the Comprehensive Homelessness Services funds to be allocated to the Local Solutions Fund (LSF) to support cities, Council of Governments, and unincorporated areas. The LSF distribution will use a formula based on the point-in-time count required by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development and/or similar measures of people experiencing homelessness, as the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors determines (LACoBOS).

The City will be a subrecipient of the funds through the County’s contract with the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG), who would be responsible for complying with all the terms and conditions of Measure. In October 2025, the City entered into a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the SGVCOG, which set forth use and reporting obligations for the City as a recipient of the subrecipient funding. Based on the formula approved by the LACoBOS, the City of Azusa will receive approximately $295,690 in FY 2026-27, bringing the cumulative total of Measure A allocations to $574,429.
1st Amendment to MOA with SGVCOG for Measure A Local Solutions Fund August 17, 2026

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council take the following actions:
1) Approve the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG), for the distribution and use of Measure A Local Solutions Funds.

ANALYSIS:

The City of Azusa has opted to receive an LSF allocation as a sub-recipient to utilize for the purposes set forth in Measure A within its jurisdiction rather than participate with the SGVCOG on a regional basis. The SGVCOG has reviewed the City’s proposal on the use of funds and confirmed that City may be a sub-recipient of the LSF.

The funds will support operation of an existing 25-bed non-congregate interim housing site at the Azusa Resource Center (ARC), an eligible use under Goal #1D - Interim Housing for People Experiencing Homelessness (PEH).

On April 21, 2025, the City Council approved extending the contract with the Los Angeles Center for Alcohol and Drug Abuse (LA CADA) for an additional two-year term, for ongoing operation of the ARC. As the ARC Operator, LA CADA provides case management and supportive services, with the goal of stabilizing participants and moving PEH into permanent housing. This is in alignment with Measure A Goal #1: Increase the number of people moving from encampments into permanent housing to reduce unsheltered homelessness:

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City's FY 2026-27 Measure A Local Solutions Fund allocation is $295,690, net of the SGVCOG project management fee. The funding will be used to support eligible operating costs associated with the Azusa Resource Center and will be received on a reimbursement basis. The total cost to operate the ARC and related outreach services is approximately $1.4 million annually. The $295,690 allocation is included in the FY 2026-27 adopted budget under Account No. 28-10-180-001-6625. No additional appropriation or General Fund contribution is required as a result of the recommended action.

MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT

BETWEEN THE SAN GABRIEL VALLEY COUNCIL OF

GOVERNMENTS AND THE CITY OF AZUSA FOR DISTRIBUTION

AND USE OF MEASURE A LOCAL SOLUTIONS FUNDS
This Memorandum of Agreement (“MOA”) is made as of this 27th day of October, 2025 by and between the City of Azusa, a municipal corporation (“City”), and the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments, a California joint powers authority (“SGVCOG”). City and SGVCOG may be referred to herein collectively as the “Parties” or individually as a “Party.” RECITALS:

A. In November of 2024 the voters in Los Angeles County (“County”) approved an ordinance imposing a half-cent sales tax on all sales of tangible personal property sold within the County (hereafter, “Measure A”), the primary purpose of which is to address homelessness within the County.

B. The tax will be collected by the County Auditor-Controller and pursuant to Measure A 60% of the proceeds are to be distributed by the County Auditor-Controller to the County.

C. As further set forth in Measure A, at least 15% of the 60% Measure A proceeds received by the County are allocated for the Local Solutions Fund (“LSF”).

D. Under Measure A, the proceeds allocated to LSF are to be distributed to, as determined by the County, to cities or council of governments. Of the 31 SGVCOG member cities, seven cities will have direct agreements with the County for an allocation of LSF, while the LSF allocation for the remaining 26 cities is pursuant to an agreement between the SGVCOG and the County, which agreement was entered into on August 28, 2025 (“County LSF Agreement”).

E. The SGVCOG was established to have a unified voice to maximize resources and advocate for regional and member interests to improve the quality of life in the San Gabriel Valley by the member cities and other local governmental agencies and intends to use its LSF allocation to address homelessness on a regional basis within its jurisdiction.

F. Rather than participate with the SGVCOG in addressing homelessness on a regional basis from a LSF funding standpoint, the City has notified the SGVCOG of its preference to receive an LSF allocation as a sub-recipient to utilize for the purposes set forth in Measure A within its jurisdiction and the SGVCOG has agreed that City may be a sub-recipient of the LSF.

G. The City has been awarded Two-Hundred Seventy-Eight Thousand Seven Hundred Thirty-Nine Dollars ($278,739) (the “Subrecipient Funding”) for the 2025-26 Fiscal Year.

H. The City acknowledges that the SGVCOG is ultimately responsible, as between itself and Docusign Envelope ID: 448B54FF-A2E1-4ADC-8DFC-FC0C3CBD2C2B 4913-0180-9766, v. 1
the County, for documenting that the Subrecipient Funding was expended in compliance with the terms and conditions of the County LSF Agreement and as a result recognizes that City’s failure to expend funds in accordance with the County LSF Agreement or this MOA or provide timely documentation to the SGVCOG as set forth in this MOA could harm the SGVCOG’s reputation and result in financial assessments against the SGVCOG and as such, the City represents that it will undertake with all due diligence the fulfillment of its obligations under this MOA

As a result, the City’s annual report shall be submitted to the SGVCOG by August 1, 2026.

9. Expend 50% of Subrecipient Funding by April 1, 2026.

The City acknowledges that under the County LSF Agreement, effective October 1, 2027, if the SGVCOG has unexpended funds equaling 30% or more of its allocated proceeds from the Local Solutions Fund in two consecutive annual reports, the excess amount exceeding the 30% threshold will be returned to the LSF.

Project Housing Acquisition and Operation
Project Description
These funds will support SGVCOG in subcontracting with qualified service providers to operate a hybrid model of scattered site interim/permanent housing throughout the San Gabriel Valley. This project involves a mix of providing housing as a service and acquiring permanent housing units for long-term use. Service providers will identify and secure immediately available interim housing units for People Experiencing Homelessness (PEH), including shared housing, rental market units, and subsidizing units in regional partnership cities, and will work to house clients in those units. Once units are identified, service providers will house referred clients. Each regional partnership city will be able to refer clients to available sites. Once clients are placed in housing, each service provider will be responsible for working with housed clients for the duration of their stay in interim housing at an adequate case management ratio of 20:1 - to help connect to services and permanent housing. The SGVCOG will contract with multiple service providers experienced in serving diverse groups, including transition age youth, families, and individuals.
