CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends approval of a one (1) year extension of the agreement with Catholic Charities for the continued implementation of the Working Hands Workforce Development Program under the same terms and conditions.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Working Hands Program is fully-funded through Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) grant funds. The PLHA Program was established pursuant to Senate Bill 2 and provides a permanent, ongoing source of funding to local governments for housing-related projects and programs that address unmet housing needs.

The City of El Centro, including Colonia-designated areas, was allocated PLHA funding.

The total estimated allocation available to the City over the 2019–2023 program years is $2,773,039.

Of the $524,658 allocated for operating expenses under the Working Hands Program, $235,626.96 has been expended to date, leaving a remaining balance of $289,031.04 available for continued program implementation.

Catholic Charities currently operates a Navigation Center and successfully works closely with the Economic Development Division on various Community Development Block Grant Programs.

BACKGROUND:

The City of El Centro and El Centro Colonia have received approximately $1.86 million in PLHA funds, a portion of which has been designated to support individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness. In accordance with PLHA Guidelines, eligible activities include supportive services and case management designed to assist chronically homeless individuals in obtaining and maintaining stable housing.

On February 20, 2024, the City entered into an agreement with Catholic Charities to implement the Working Hands Workforce Development Program. The program provides temporary employment opportunities for individuals who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Participants earn a weekly wage while performing labor services related to community cleanup and maintenance efforts.

DISCUSSION:

Catholic Charities operates a Navigation Center located at 250 W. Orange Avenue in El Centro. The center provides supportive services aimed at helping individuals experiencing homelessness achieve stability and self-sufficiency. Through this partnership, the City and Catholic Charities collaborate to promote economic opportunity, workforce participation, and long-term housing stability.

The Working Hands Crew assists City staff by providing cleaning and maintenance services at various public facilities according to the following weekly schedule:
• Monday: Bucklin Park & Main Street between 6th and 8th Streets • Tuesday: Stark Field, Swarthout Park
• Wednesday: Bucklin Park & Main Street between 6th and 8th Streets • Thursday: First Responders Park
• Friday: Bucklin Park & Main Street between 4th and 6th Streets By combining employment opportunities, job training, and coordinated supportive services, the program strengthens pathways to long-term employment and permanent housing.

Since the program began in September 2024:
• 17 individuals have enrolled in the Working Hands Program. • 9 of the 17 participants obtained housing, including
o 7 were housed through Rapid Rehousing
o 1 obtained housing on his own without a rental subsidy o 1 reunited with family where he was permanently housed • 6 participants obtained employment
• 1 additional participant is in the final stages of securing employment Catholic Charities has demonstrated the capacity, experience, and organizational infrastructure necessary to continue administering the Working Hands Workforce Development Program in compliance with all applicable City and State requirements.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends approval of a one (1) year extension of the agreement with Catholic Charities for the continued implementation of the Working Hands Workforce Development Program under the same terms and conditions.

NA
BACKGROUND:

The first piece of equipment that receives incoming sewer flow at the WWTP is a mechanical trash bar screen. The purpose of the screen is to remove inorganic materials (plastics, debris, etc.) from the wastewater stream before it enters the treatment process and to divert these materials for disposal at a landfill. The trash bar failed and on January 20, 2026, Council approved a local emergency resolution to allow the repairs to proceed quickly.

DISCUSSION:

Staff has obtained quotes from the equipment supplier and is working to place the order.

Staff has also obtained a quote from a contractor and is working with our legal department to set up the agreement to be in place once the equipment is delivered. Public works will be returning to Council to provide updates as work and contracts are established.

CONCLUSION:

NA. Information item only.
