District: 2

Recommended Actions

1. Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a grant agreement and related program documents on behalf of the city to receive $2 million from the County of San Diego’s Capital Emergency Housing Solutions Grant Program.

2. Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a grant agreement with the Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego for $2 million from the Capital Emergency Housing Solutions Grant Program for the expansion of La Posada de Guadalupe homeless shelter and authorizing the Deputy City Manager of Administrative Services to appropriate $2 million in the General Fund’s fiscal year 2022-23 operating budget.

Executive Summary
The City Council is being asked to approve the agreements required to accept a $2 million grant to help pay for the initial costs of the expansion of the La Posada de Guadalupe homeless shelter in Carlsbad.

In 2021, the City Council approved a work plan to reduce the city’s unsheltered homeless population (resolution and work plan attached as Exhibit 3). This plan included the task to work with the Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego to pursue opportunities to increase the number of shelter beds in the existing La Posadas shelter and expand the building to accommodate women and families. This task included exploring possible funding options to speed up construction.

The County of San Diego created a Capital Emergency Housing Solutions Grant Program in 2022 to provide cities with one-time capital funding to create new and permanent emergency shelter solutions. The City of Carlsbad applied for funding from the program in October to expand La Feb. 7, 2023

Posada and has received notice that the county intends to award the city the $2 million it requested for the expansion.

For the city to accept the grant, the City Council must adopt a resolution authorizing participation in the Capital Emergency Housing Solutions Grant Program and enter into grant agreements with the County of San Diego and the Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego. (Exhibits 1 and 2)
Explanation & Analysis
Background
The Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that owns and operates the La Posada de Guadalupe homeless shelter. The shelter provides emergency and transitional shelter services to homeless men, including a portion reserved for farmworkers.

The City of Carlsbad has been a cooperative partner with Catholic Charities for many years, identifying a location for the shelter and providing funding for the development and expansion of the shelter and ongoing support of operational costs.

Catholic Charities and the City of Carlsbad are interested in expanding to expand the capacity of the shelter to serve more individuals experiencing homelessness, including space for women and children. The City Council expressed support for the shelter’s expansion on Sept. 28, 2021, and approved the amended homelessness goal work plan on Dec. 7, 2021.

The City of Carlsbad has granted a total of $173,000 in federal Community Development Block Grant funding to Catholic Charities to pay for architectural and engineering costs to explore adding a second story to the shelter building, and recently increased the CDBG funding by $125,000 for these pre-development costs.

Capital Emergency Housing Solutions Grant
The County of San Diego’s Capital Emergency Housing Solutions Grant Program made $10 million of funding available through a competitive application process for local cities to create new and permanent emergency shelter solutions. Funding through the program is available to incorporated city jurisdictions only and must be used on one-time capital projects resulting in long-term and sustainable overnight shelter solutions for persons experiencing homelessness.

City staff evaluated the original application criteria for the potential expansion of La Posada but did not apply in the original application round because the threshold requirement for project readiness was not feasible.

Three cities were awarded funding in the original application round: Oceanside, Vista and San Diego. About $5 million of funding remained available so the county opened a second application period. Based on feedback from the first round, the county adjusted the requirements and criteria for competitive scoring related to project readiness.

Based on the application changes, city staff applied for $2 million to support the expansion of La Posada de Guadalupe on Oct. 11, 2022. While $2 million is not enough funding to complete the expansion, it provides a significant portion of project costs and reduces the time necessary for a capital campaign to secure other funding.

Feb. 7, 2023
Item #11 Page 2 of 35

The city received notice from the County of San Diego on Nov. 17, 2022, stating that it intended to award the full $2 million requested (Exhibit 4). Under the terms of the grant:
• The county will transmit the funding to the City of Carlsbad, which will then pass the money on to Catholic Charities.
• All grant funds must be spent for the intended purpose within 24 months of the date of the agreement with the county.
• The funds can only be used for property acquisition and facilities development, and may not be used for ongoing shelter operating expenses or indirect costs. • As administrator of the funds, the City of Carlsbad will be required to submit all backup documentation for the use of the $2 million to the county by the end of the agreement term. There is a provision that the county could ask for reimbursement if such documentation is not provided, or inappropriate expenditures are made.

City staff will strictly administer the grant funds to ensure expenditures are allowable and properly documented.

The Catholic Charities’ Corporate Board Executive Committee expressed its support for the opportunity to expand La Posada to serve more people in need and the Chief Executive Officer has the Board authorization to enter in a grant agreement with the city to receive the $2 million grant. The organization will initiate a capital campaign when there is a more definitive idea of project costs.

Fis cal Analysis
Receiving the $2 million from the County of San Diego’s Capital Emergency Housing Solutions Grant Program and passing it through to the Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego for the expansion of La Posada de Guadalupe homeless shelter does not represent a significant net fiscal impact for the city. With the city serving as the administrator of the funds, the city will be required to submit all backup documentation for the use of the $2 million to the county by the end of the agreement term. There is an agreement provision where the county could ask for reimbursement if such documentation is not provided, or inappropriate expenditures are made.

Next Steps
A grant agreement with Catholic Charities providing the requirements and process for the documentation will be developed by staff and approved by the City Attorney. Staff will then work with the County of San Diego and Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego to apply the grant funding to expand the La Posada de Guadalupe homeless shelter.

Environmental E valuation
This action does not constitute a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act under Public Resources Code Section 21065. These actions may not cause a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

2.6 Project Description (Describe the project that this grant will support.) The Catho lic Charitie s Dioce se of San Diego operates the La Posada de Guadalupe homele ss shelter in the City of Carlsbad. La Posada provides emergency shelter services to single men experiencing homele ssness. The City of Carlsbad has been a cooperative partner with Catholic Charitie s for many years, helpin g to identify a location for the shelter , providin g fundin g for the devel opment and expansion of the shelter, and providin g ongoing support of operational costs.

There is a desire from both Catholic Charities and the City of Carlsbad to expand the capacity of the shelter to serve more individuals experiencing homele ssness, including space for women and children.

At the Car lsbad City Council meeting on 09/28/2021 , the City Council directed staff to look at opt ions for a potential expansion. The City of Carlsbad also granted $58,000 in Communit y Development Block Grant (CDBG) fundin g to Catho lic Charitie s to pay for architectural and engineering costs to exami ne the feasibi lity of expandin g the footprint of the shelter buildin g to include a seco nd story . City staff have also worked with Catholic Charitie s on a potential amendm ent to their Condition al Use Permit (CU P) to increase the bed capacity at the shelter.

To best serve the population experiencing homele ssness, Carlsbad has supported La Posada' s transition to a housing-foc used low barrier shelter. Low barrier refers to the best practic e of reducing barriers to entry. Catholic Charitie s changed their intake and operating policies in 20 19 to reduce barrier s, but they recognized that to better operate as a low barrier shelter and serve more individual s, they need additional staff with clinical expertise and additi onal staff training. As a result, on 05/04/2021 the

APPLICATION
Carlsbad City Council authori zed $ 180,000 per yea r in fundin g for three years as a part of their Homelessness Goal Work Plan to enhance clinical services at the shelter. Within the fundin g allocation, the Carlsbad City Council also included a task to contract with a third-p arty consultant to provide trainin g and technical ass istance to increase the shelter' s capacit y to operate as a housing-foc used low­ barrier shelter. The internationally recog nized homelessness services consultin g fi rm OrgCode Consultin g was selected throu gh a competi tive Request for Proposa l process . OrgCode Consulting's Scope of Work includes assess ing current shelter operations, designing and providing customized trainin g and technical ass istance based on the assess ment results, and deve loping an operational framewo rk for shelter expansion.

Addin g a second floo r to the shelter would allow the shelter to be expanded by 35-50 non-congregate beds for women and familie s. The shelter will prov ide supportive services for these households with a focus on ass isting them with moving into permanent housing destinations. Additi onally, the shelter will prov ide diversion serv ices to divert families from the shelter whenever poss ible. Eac h family entering the shelter will work with case management to develop a housing plan which starts on the day afte r intake. Staff will work with clients to implement this housing plan so that more than 70% of shelter clients exit the shelter to a permanent housing destinati on. The operations, metrics and supportive services will align with best practices and CoC standard s for emergency shelter.

2.7 Purpose of County Grant (Describe how the grant fundin g will be used, ensuring County funds are only used for one-tim e, capital expenses re lated to emergency homeless ness solutions.) County capital funds will be used for the capital related expenses assoc iated with addin g a secon d story onto La Posada de Guadalu pe to increase the shelte r's square footage and overa ll bed capacity. Fundin g will be used for materials, labor, project manage ment, fees and pennit s, and insurance. The budget also includes a continge ncy fund to ensure the project can move forward if prices increase beyond what is currently proj ected. The contingency fund is not allocated to the County's fundin g awa rd. County funding will constitu te appro ximately 47% of the total est imated capital expense budget. The city and Catholic Charities Dioceses of San Diego will leverage other sources for the remaining 53%.

All County of San Diego fundin g will be expe nded within 24 months of distribu tion. A tim e line for the expenditure of county fundin g is included in Section 4.

2.8 Sustainable Operations Describe how the resulting emergency shelter solution can be sustained for a minimum of two (2) yea rs.)
As the operator, Catholic Charities D iocese of San Diego wil I continu e to identify and appl y for ongo ing fundin g through the City, County, State, private sources and other loca l juri sdictions to maintain long­ term operations. Catholic Charities Diocese of San Diego rece ives annu al support from the City of Carlsbad and other neighboring juri sdictions, often through CDBG fundin g. Loca l j urisdictions a lso contribut e to the A lliance for Regional So lutions (ARS), which poo ls resources from North County juri sdictions for No rth County shelter support. La Posada de Guadalupe receives $247,500 from ARS annua lly.

Data related to Point in Time Count, Healthy Places Index, or other data demonstratin g j urisdictional need, as well as est imates of who will be served by this project should be included to eva luate the leve l ofresponse to the identifie d need.

Acco rding to the 2022 Point-In-Time Co unt, the North County Regio n of San D iego County has 17% of the homeless population, and 19% of the unsheltered populati on, with the Coasta l Reg ion exper iencing an almost 17% increase in people experiencing homelessness . The count identified a minim um of 1,442 individuals experiencin g homelessness in North County on a single night. Despite these numbers, North County lacks adequate housing and shelter reso urces to address this need. According to the 07 / I /202 1 - 06/30/2022 Alliance for Regional Solutions Shelter Report, ther e are only 167 shelter beds in North County. Additi onally, 68 of these beds are considered high barrier requirin g drug testin g and other barriers to entry. 26 are only ava ilable in the winter throu gh a church shelter network. This leaves only 99 low barrier yea r-round beds fo r 1,442 people, with 50 of these 99 beds restricted to single males.

The La Posada de Guadalup e Expansion will prov ide an additi onal 35-50 non-co ngregate low barrier bed s to serve women and famili es.

5. 1 Project Budget Template (Attac hment A) (Complete template for project proposed.)

5.2 Project Budget Narrative (Tnclude project budget narrative describing costs submitted in 5.l .) As architectura l drawing s are not complete , the total project budget is an estimate. We anticipate the total project cost s being approximately $4,258 ,000 million of which the City of Carl sbad has already contributed $58,000. The hard costs include approximately $1 ,620 ,000 in labor and $2,000,000 in materials (of which County funding will cover approximately 50%). The estimated soft costs include engineer ing, environmenta l, design fees and permit s, architecture , project management and insurance.

The estimated total for these costs is $438 ,000 (of which County funding wi ll cover approximatel y 43%). The budget includes a $200 ,000 contingency fund to ensure the project move s forward in the event of any unanticipated cost increases. This funding will be leveraged from other sources and not come from the County funding allocation. In total , the County is being asked to fund appro ximately 4 7% of the estimated costs.

The annual operations budget for the expanded units at La Posada de Guada lupe total s an estimate of $522 ,300. This amount includes estimated salary and benefit s at $353 ,000 which would provide operating staff and case manag ement at no more than a 1 :20 case load. The City of Carlsbad currently supports a portion of the budget wit h a three-year grant for add itional clinicians in the amount of $180,000 per year. This funding could support a portion of the staff needs upon comp letion. It is anticipated that the current grant funding could be available through December 2025. The project budget reflects a portio n of the final contract al location to support the expanded operationa l costs. The City of Carlsbad City Counci l would have to approve continued funding after that. The maintenance and operations budget includes insurance cost s, supplies , equipment, utilities , and occupancy costs. The City of Carlsbad also currently supports a portion of the budget with $20,000 per year in trainin g through OrgCode Consu lting. Client assistance costs include small items for clients and funding for thing s I ike application fees. Indirect costs are estimated at $7 1,000 per year and include human resource s, IT, admin istration , etc .
