INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
To: Lisa L. Kim From: Craig Beck
Dept.: City Manager Dept.: Economic Development
Department
Subject: Report for Be Well OC
Mobile Response Team
Program and approval of FY
23-24 through 27-28
Agreement with Be Well OC
(Mind OC). ( Action Item)
Date: 7/25/2023

OBJECTIVE
Presentation of a Report for the Be Well Mobile Crisis Response Team Program and approval of FY 2023-24 through 2027-28 Professional Services Agreement with Be Well OC (Mind OC) as the service provider for the City’s Mobile Crisis Response Team program for select mental health calls for service.

BACKGROUND
In May 2021, the City Council approved an 18-month Be Well OC Pilot Program to deploy the Mobile Crisis Response Team. The agreement was subsequently amended in October 2022 and extended through June 30, 2023. The Be Well OC Mobile Crisis Response Team is trained to respond to and de-escalate situations such as mental health crisis, drug and alcohol use issues, proactive outreach to the homeless, non- domestic violence/family disputes, and welfare checks. The pilot program included a 6-month ramp-up, including a training period and community engagement, in coordination with the Garden Grove Police Department Special Resource Team (SRT), Orange County Fire Authority and the Community and Economic Development Department.

DISCUSSION
The Be Well OC Pilot Program was designed to divert calls for service from Garden Grove first responders to trained mental health professionals. Annually SRT responds to over 3,000 calls for service involving mental health related needs and Police dispatch receives over 11,000 calls related to homelessness in which mental illness is the primary cause or major factor. As the program evolves, we are working collaboratively to improve the mental health system of care to Garden Grove residents and remove barriers to accessing mental health professionals.

Over the past 18 months between October 1, 2021 and June 30, 2023, the Be Well

Team has responded to 6,312 calls for service and spends an average of 32 minutes on scene per call (See Attachment No. 1). The latest June 2023 data is highlighted below:

76% of the calls did not require a co-response, thereby making Garden Grove First Responders available to focus on critical emergency calls. 68% of the calls assisted unhoused individuals.
51% of the calls addressed a mental health crisis.

Implementation of the Be Well Pilot Program ended June 30, 2023. Moving forward proposed program enhancements include:

Increased focus on those impacted by homelessness;
Increased case management support;
Target services supporting Garden Grove’s diverse community; An addition of a second mobile response team van; and
Continued refinement of data dashboards and reporting analytics to ensure transparency and continuous quality improvement.

It is recommended the City Council approve a two-year (2) Professional Services Agreement with options to extend annually with a maximum performance period of up to five (5) years. Years one (1) and two (2) will continue with 18-hour daily operations at $1.1M annually. At the end of year two (2) an evaluation will be performed by City staff to determine the City needs at that time and consider a reduction in daily operations from 18-hours to 12-hours for years three to five (3 to 5), thereby potentially reducing annual costs. The proposed cost for year’s three to five (3 to 5) is described in the tables below:

18-Hour Operations (Attachment No. 3):

18 – Hour Operations Budget
Year 3 $1.1M + Consumer Price Index
(CPI)
Year 4 Approved Year 3 Budget + CPI
Year 5 Approved Year 4 Budget + CPI

12-Hour Operations (Attachment No. 4):

12 – Hour Operations Budget
Year 3 $775,000 + CPI
Year 4 Approved Year 3 Budget + CPI
Year 5 Approved Year 4 Budget + CPI

FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no additional impact to the General Fund for the first two years of operations. Funding for Be Well OC was approved by the City Council in the adopted

•
• •
• •
• •
•
FY23-24 and FY 24-25 budget. Years three to five (3 to 5) will have proposed funding for 18-hour daily operations as follows: year three (3) at $1.1M plus CPI ($500,000 from GGPD and $600,000 plus CPI from general fund); year four (4) at approved year three (3) budget plus CPI ($500,000 from GGPD and difference from general fund); and year five (5) at approved year four (4) budget plus CPI ($500,000 from GGPD and difference from general fund). Of the total contract amount, $500,000 will continue to be included in the GGPD's operating budget for years 3 through 5. Future years' contract amount will be incorporated into the perspective year's operating budget, contingent upon funding availability.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that City Council:

Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Be Well OC (Mind OC) for an amount not to exceed $1.1 million for years one and two (1 and 2); Approve year three (3) budget amount not to exceed $1.1M plus CPI; Approve year four (4) amount not to exceed the approved year three (3) amount plus CPI;
Approve year five (5) amount not to exceed the approved year four (4) amount plus CPI; and
Authorize the City Manager to sign the Agreement, and make minor modifications as appropriate on behalf of the City Council.

INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
To: Lisa L. Kim From: Craig Beck
Dept.: City Manager Dept.: Economic Development
Subject: Update on the Civic Center
Revitalization Project as
requested by City Manager
Kim.

Date: 7/25/2023

OBJECTIVE
To provide an update to the City Council on the Civic Center Revitalization Project regarding the issuance of a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to initiate the procurement process.

BACKGROUND
Through issuance of a Request for Qualifications (RFQ), the City is seeking Statements of Qualification from development teams that have specific and demonstrable experience in delivering Design-Build-Finance (DBF) projects similar to the City’s Civic Center Revitalization Project (the “Project”) on the existing City Civic Center campus.

DISCUSSION
Through the evaluation process using a "best value" approach, the City intends to select a single development team to enter an exclusive negotiation with the City for a period of six (6) months. This exclusive negotiation is intended to culminate in a single development contract (Development Agreement) under which the development team will design, build, and finance the Project at an agreed not to exceed cost.

By utilizing a DBF under a progressive design-build-agreement project delivery approach, the City expects to secure substantial public benefits. These benefits include risk management, cost savings, expedited project design and construction scheduling, and capitalizing on developer knowledge about lifecycle cost management to deliver predictable long-term operation and maintenance costs.

Following the RFQ evaluation process, it is anticipated that a recommendation to enter into an Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENA) with a preferred development team will be brought forward by City Staff and submitted to the City Council for its consideration in September 2023.

City Staff, with the PFAL and Placeworks teams, are continuing to work together to advance the Civic Center Revitalization Project. At recent and upcoming City events (e.g., Concerts in the Park, Movies in the Park, Garden Grove Police Department National Night Out), the City is having informational booths available to engage with the community, garner feedback, and create awareness of the project. The project website (ggcity.org/civic-center) and the City’s various social media platforms are continuing to be maintained with regular updates, educational information, flyers, and news on the project to allow the community to stay connected and informed.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact as this report is for informational purposes and no action is required.

RECOMMENDATION
This report is for informational purposes and no action is required by the City Council.
