SUBJECT: Unsheltered Population Outreach Services
Summary:
Renewal of the KCAO services for unsheltered individuals is necessary to support the City's continued implementation of the City's Anti-Encampment Ordinance that went into effect on January 22, 2023.
Recommendation:
Consider retroactively approving the professional services agreement with Kings Community Action Organization (KCAO) for unsheltered population outreach services beginning July 1, 2026.
Budget impact:
The City's adopted Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Budget allocated funding the City receives as part of several Nationwide Opioid Settlements for this purpose. The proposed KCAO services are an eligible expense under the various settlement agreements for Opioid Settlement related funds and were utilized the past three years for the same. The proposed KCAO cost for this fiscal year is $55,000 and is entirely covered by Opioid Settlement funds received in FY 25-26.
Background:
The City's Anti-Encampment Ordinance was adopted on December 13, 2022, and Section 7-3-5 directs the City Manager to establish Staff Assistance for Unsheltered Individuals. This is intended to provide the necessary service support to assist unsheltered individuals with connections to shelter, housing, and other services such as mental health and drug addiction support. Kings Community Action Organization (KCAO) provides services that connect people experiencing homelessness with services, and works closely with the Kings County Human Services Agency, Tulare-Kings Homeless Alliance and other non-profits. The proposed KCAO outreach services will be for a 12 month period and will support the City's efforts to connect unsheltered individuals with housing navigation and other service support. This KCAO service will be covered using eligible funding the City receives from several Opioid Settlements.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Proposal
Kings Community Action Organization has a long history of working with individuals and families experiencing homelessness. Currently we operate three PSH projects (Hope Survives, Anchors II, and Anchors M), provide case management for the HOME ARP project in Kings and Tulare Counties, manage the Sunrise Apartments, oversee the Behavioral Health Bridge Housing and Pathways projects at Holiday Lodge in Hanford, and the Barbara Saville Shelter whose emphasis is on victims of domestic violence. We also partner with other agencies on homeless issues and maintain key roles in several homeless collaboratives. We propose the following:
Goals
1. Identify the Outreach Team players and create a plan to do outreach.
2. Identify who the homeless population is that resides in Corcoran, CA by determining whether they are currently evaluated and in the Coordinated Entry System.
3. Administer the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire to each homeless individual and review the results with each individual. This will begin the process of developing relationships.
4. Develop case plans with each individual that will address emotional well-being, mental health, physical health, and housing.
5. Reduce the number of homeless residing in Corcoran by connecting them with resources and providing ongoing connection and case intervention.
Outreach Activities
1. Create an outreach team that is mobile and able to address the emotional health, mental health, physical health, and housing needs of the homeless in Corcoran. This team should include KCAO, either Kings County Behavioral Health or Kings View, Champions Recovery, Adventist Health or Family Healthcare Network, Kings County Health and Human Services, and the Faith based community. KCAO will be responsible for creating the team.
2. Administer the Adverse Childhood Experiences questionnaire to each homeless individual and begin a conversation about how their experiences may be impacting their current lifestyle and situation. The purpose is to begin establishing a relationship with each homeless individual. Dr. Bruce Perry, an expert in trauma, resilience, and relationship, in his book, What Happened to You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing, quotes,
8 "Yes, I'm very concerned about poverty of relationships in modern society. In our work, we find the best predictor of your current mental health is your current "relational health", or connectedness. This connectedness is fueled by two things: the basic capabilities you ve developed to form and maintain relationships, and the relational "opportunities" you have in your family neighborhood school and so forth."
"Simply put, modern life provides fewer opportunities for relational interactions. In a multifamily, multigenerational environment, the continuous social interactions provide a rich source of regulation, reward and learning. And that's how we used to live.... In 2006, only 8% of households had five or more people; 60% had two or fewer. In a recent survey of selected urban communities in the US, Europe and Japan, up to 60% of all households were just one person."
"Add to this the impact of screen time. At home, at work, at school, we spend hours and hours in front of a screen-on average, over 11 hours a day. We are having far fewer family meals; are conversational skills are fading. The art of storytelling and the capacity to listen are on the decline. The result is a more self-absorbed, more anxious, more depressed-and less resilient-population."
"Disconnection and loneliness in our society are playing a major role in the increased anxiety, sleep problems, substance use, and depression we're seeing." "A recent study by a team at Harvard found that of all the factors involved in depression, the most powerful were related to connectedness: "The protective effects of social connection were present even for individuals who were at higher risk of depression as a result of genetic vulnerability or early life trauma." Certainly, our work supports that observation. One of our major findings is that in determining someone's current mental health, the history of their childhood relational health-their connectedness-is as important as, if not more important than, their history of adversity. And for children and youth experiencing trauma, the best predictor of their current mental health functioning is their current connectedness."
It is important to build relationships with each person that is homeless so they trust us to help them. It is critical to the work we all do.
9 3. Mobilize the Outreach Team on a weekly basis (more often initially) to meet with the homeless individuals, establish relationships, develop plans, and work toward housing and improved emotional, mental, and physical well-being. The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) will be utilized to identify the individual's homeless in Corcoran.
HMIS will allow the outreach team to view each person's history as it relates to homelessness, housing, and services rendered by local service providers or service providers from other counties. If individuals are not located in the HMIS, and they agree to an assessment, a Vulnerability Index Service Prioritization Decision Assistance Tool (VI- SPDAT) will be administered to determine the level of housing they qualify. If individuals indicate they want to be relocated to a home city or with family, they will be afforded that opportunity.
4. Re-open the park restrooms and provide enough trash receptacles, even a large dumpster, to ensure the homeless individuals in the park have a place to deposit their trash. The Outreach Team will work with the homeless to properly care for the public property.
5. Meet monthly with the City of Corcoran to review progress. 10 EXHIBIT "B"

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
STAFF REPORT
October 13, 2026
ITEM # 6-D
FROM: Kevin J. Tromborg, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Resolution No. 4173 authorizing and ratifying the submittal of a Fiscal Year 2027-28 Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant application for the Corcoran Safe Streets Tactical Urbanism Study ($300,000 grant request; $38,868 in-kind local match), committing City staff time as the local match, and authorizing the City Manager or the Community Development Director to execute the Restricted Grant Agreement and related documents Recommendation: (Voice Vote) Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 4173:
1. Authorizing, and ratifying staff's submittal of, an application to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for $300,000 in Fiscal Year (FY) 2027-28 Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant (STPG) Program funds, Sustainable Communities Competitive category, for the Corcoran Safe Streets Tactical Urbanism Study;
2. Committing a local in-kind match of $38,868 (11.47 percent of the $338,868 total project cost), consisting of City staff time devoted to the project over the FY 2027-28 through FY 2029-30 grant period; and
Authorizing the City Manager, or Community Development Director, to act as the City's authorized official and to execute the application signature page, the Restricted Grant Agreement, any amendments, requests for reimbursement, and all other documents required to accept and administer the grant if it is awarded Discussion: _The Caltrans STPG Program funds planning studies that lead to transportation projects with sustainability, safety, and equity outcomes. The Sustainable Communities Competitive category is funded by Senate Bill 1 (the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017) and is open to cities, counties, transit agencies, and regional agencies. Caltrans released the FY 2027-28 call for applications in fall 2026; applications are due Friday, October 9, 2026, with awards anticipated in spring 2027 and a grant performance period of July 1, 2027, through June 30, 2030. Applicants in this category must provide a minimum 11.47 percent local match.
City Offices
832 Whitley * Corcoran, CA 93212 * Phone 559-992-2151 * www.cityofcorcoran.ca.gov percent of Corcoran Joint Unified students qualify for free or reduced-price meals, and median household income is 60 percent of the statewide median.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total project cost is $338,868, of which $300,000 (88.53 percent) would be reimbursed by Caltrans and $38,868 (11.47 percent) is the City's required local match. Staff proposes to meet the entire match in-kind through City staff time: hours spent by Community Development, Public Works, the City Engineer, Finance, and the Police Department on grant administration and invoicing, consultant procurement, pilot site selection and deployment coordination, traffic control review, data collection support, outreach events, Advisory Committee and interdepartmental meetings, and review of the Draft and Final Plan. Staff time will be valued at actual salary and benefit rates and documented with timesheets and activity logs for each task, as the Caltrans STG Application Guide and Regional Planning Handbook require for in-kind match. Because the match is staff time rather than cash, no appropriation of Local Transportation Fund or General Fund dollars is needed for the match, and no Third Party In-Kind Valuation Plan is required because the contribution comes from the City itself rather than a third party.
The grant is reimbursement-based: the City pays consultant costs and invoices Caltrans no less than quarterly with supporting documentation, reporting the in-kind staff time accrued in each period alongside the reimbursable expenses. The City should plan for a working-capital float of roughly one quarter of consultant billings (on the order of $40,000 to $50,000 during the peak pilot-deployment period) between payment and reimbursement. The City remains obligated to deliver the full $38,868 of documented staff time by the end of the grant period; any shortfall would have to be made up in cash. If the grant is not awarded, there is no fiscal impact.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Approval of the grant application and resolution is not a "project" under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is a funding and planning action that does not commit the City to any physical change in the environment (CEQA Guidelines §15378(b)(4) and §15262, feasibility and planning studies). Temporary pilot installations will be reviewed by the City Engineer and Public Works for traffic-control and encroachment requirements before deployment; permanent improvements identified by the study will undergo separate environmental review when they are designed and funded.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Adopt the resolution as recommended (staff recommendation).
2. Adopt the resolution with a cash match (for example, Local Transportation Fund) in place of, or in combination with, staff time. Any cash source must be an eligible non-federal fund available during the grant period.
3. Decline to adopt the resolution. Caltrans would not execute a grant agreement with the City if the project is selected, and the application would be withdrawn.
Roles
The Community Development Director will serve as grant manager, approve all materials, coordinate City departments and partner agencies, and bring the Final Plan to the Planning Commission and City Council. The City Engineer prepared the application and will support Public Works on pilot deployment, traffic control, and data collection. A consultant selected through a competitive Request for Proposals (Task B) will carry the technical, outreach, and plan-production work under City direction. An Advisory Committee of residents, business owners, the school district, KCAG, KART, Caltrans District 6, public health, housing, and emergency-response partners will approve pilot sites, evaluation criteria, and findings.
Budget by task
The application budget follows the Caltrans Cost & Schedule template. Task A (grant administration) is 2.8 percent of the grant award, within the 5 percent cap. Only City staff may charge against Tasks A and B. The local match column represents the value of City staff time contributed to each task; no cash match is proposed.

Caltrans GRANT APPLICATION COVER SHEET
Project Description (5 Sentences Maximum)
Insert Application Dairy and Whitley Avenues alone accounted for 18 of the City's 27 pedestrian collisions from 2016 to 2020 Narrative: and the City's December 2024 Active Transportation Plan responds by recommending demonstration projects to "test a concept and receive community feedback before committing significant resources."
1. Project Description Corcoran Safe Streets puts that recommendation into practice: up to four temporary, low-cost pilots, such as painted curb extensions and crossings, rubber speed humps, chicanes, planters, and a downtown parklet, will go on the Plan's three spine corridors, the School Corridor (Letts, Bell, Patterson, and Otis Avenues), the Parks Corridor (Dairy and Orange Avenues), and the Commercial Corridor (Whitley Avenue west of the BNSF), which link Corcoran's neighborhoods to schools, parks, downtown businesses, civic buildings, and transit. Vehicle speeds, driver yielding, walking and biking volumes, and resident comfort will be measured before, during, and after each deployment to show whether safer streets bring more residents out walking and biking, so the City's limited capital funds go only to solutions proven on Corcoran's streets and backed by the residents who use them. The result will be a Council-adopted Corcoran Safe Streets Findings & Project Phasing Plan containing a prioritized project list, conceptual designs (no more than 30%), planning-level cost estimates, a funding matrix, and frontage and development standard recommendations that build on the objective design standards committed in the City's 2024-2032 Housing Element. Building on the Corcoran ATP. the Housing Element, and the KCAG 2025 Regional ATP. the study advances the KCAG RP/SCS, the Strategic Highway Safety Plan, and CAPTI, positioning a rural, low-income community with tested projects ready for implementation funding.

ITEM # 6-E
FROM: Kevin J. Tromborg, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Award to complete the 2025 to 2027 Vehicle Abatement, Towing and Dismantling Contract.
Recommendation: (Voice Vote) Consider approving award of the remaining years of the vehicle abatement contract held by Arts Towing Service, Corcoran, CA 93212 to Rudy LLC DBA: Bokum Logistic with the option of extending the contract for an additional year upon the approval and request of both of the parties
Discussion: Arts Towing and Dismantling Service is unable to continue service of the current contract. Because of the urgent need, Community Development Department staff inquired of local and out of town tow companies of interest to complete the contract. Staff was able to obtain quotes from only one company who expressed interest in providing vehicle abatement service for the City of Corcoran. Rudy LLC, DBA: Bokum Logistics of 1107 Hall Avenue Corcoran Ca 93212. Because this will be fulfilling an awarded contract it will not be necessary to advertise a Request For Proposal (RFP).
Rudy LLC is a new local company and will provide vehicle abatement services and contract the dismantling to a sub-contractor, Hanford Dismantling The cost each tow through the program will be $80.00 for tows in the city limits and $100.00 for the fringe areas under the program.
Hanford Dismantling will handle the destruction of the vehicle and the paperwork involved.
There cost are absorbed in the parting of the vehicle prior to final destruction.

ITEM # 6-F
FROM: Greg Gatzka, City Manager
SUBJECT: FY 26-27 Budget Amendment for Police Department Staffing Needs Summary:
The Police Chief has requested authorization for one budgeted Sergeant position allocation to be changed to a Lieutenant as a flexibly allocated position for the remainder of FY 26-27. This is due to an anticipated Sergeant retirement and potential cost savings with an exempt position.
Recommendation:
Consider approving Resolution No. 4174 to approve the FY 26-27 Budget Amendment by changing one Police Department Sergeant allocation to one Lieutenant allocation.
Budget impact:
None anticipated in Fiscal Year 26-27 as the Police Department Budget for salaries and benefits is expected to cover the cost. Sergeant positions are not exempt and generate overtime at an estimated annual cost of $186,000, while a Lieutenant position is exempt and estimated annual cost is $179,000.
Background:
The public safety needs of Corcoran remain a high priority for the City, and the effectiveness of Police Department operations to provide essential public safety is critically dependent upon having sufficient sworn Officers and supervisor personnel available to respond. The Police Department currently has five Sergeant positions, and one current Sergeant is intending to retire in November of this year. The Police Chief has requested flexibility to hire at either a Lieutenant level or Sergeant level after the retirement occurs. If approved, the budget amendment will change the position allocation from Sergeant to Lieutenant as a flexible allocation, and the Police Chief will be allowed to either hire a Lieutenant or alternatively underfill the position with a Sergeant. The City Manager supports this request and recommends approval.
