5.CITY COUNCIL/STAFF COMMENTS
Councilmember Kassakhian honored the life and service of Sergeant Edvin F. Franco, a distinguished member of the community, who tragically passed away along with other U.S. service members during a training exercise in Lithuania.

Councilmember Brotman requested that the Council reconsider the item related to staff support for Councilmembers. He proposed that this discussion take place during the upcoming budget study sessions so that any potential costs could be incorporated into the next fiscal year budget.

Councilmember Najarian expressed interest in discussing with the Council which priority items he should bring to the Metro Board in order to secure funding for the City. In response, Mayor Asatryan asked staff to compile a list of potential items to guide the conversation and help determine the City's priorities.

Councilmember Gharpetian shared reflections on recent City events he attended, including the Cesar Chavez Commemorative Event and the Soroptimist International Glendale Luncheon.

Councilmember Kassakhian addressed a public concern about trash cans in the Montrose Shopping Park lacking liners and also mentioned issues related to parking fees in that area.

Mayor Asatryan inquired about the timeline for the public artwork that was supposed to be commissioned on Artsakh Avenue and requested that the City Manager provide an update on the related RFP.

Mayor Asatryan thanked the Chamber of Commerce for hosting the State of the City luncheon and acknowledged staff for organizing the Sister Cities Kickoff. She encouraged members of the public interested in joining a Sister City Committee to visit glendaleca.gov/sistercities.

Mayor Asatryan requested the return of an item for discussion regarding events organized by organizations that are free and open to the public, specifically exploring how such events might also support small business revenue. She raised concerns about high City fees and the need to explore City partnerships with local organizations that are organizing these types of community events.

Finally, she recommended that the City of Glendale collaborate with Miles from the Alex Theatre on upcoming programming for Alex Theatre’s 100th anniversary. She expressed interest in the City participating in the planning for these centennial events. 180 of 379

CITY OF GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

AGENDA ITEM
Report: Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Eagle Aerial Solutions (EAS) to Conduct a Comprehensive Analysis on all Dedicated Irrigation Meters and Mixed-Use Meters.

1. Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into and execute a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Eagle Aerial Solutions to conduct a comprehensive analysis on all dedicated irrigation meters and mixed-use meters in the not-to-exceed amount of $156,710.

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Consent Calendar
Approved for April 15, 2025 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Eagle Aerial Solutions (EAS) specializes in providing high-resolution aerial imagery and data management solutions. Together with their partner NV5, EAS has been assisting the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) on various statewide water conservation efforts, including the irrigated landscape measurement project. Currently, EAS is the only company whose methodology is approved and meets DWR’s standards.

The recommended Professional Services Agreement (PSA) would allow EAS to support GWP in determining the number of dedicated-irrigation meters and mixed-use meters in the City, and to conduct a comprehensive analysis on those water uses. The analysis will provide GWP information on how the water is being used, help identify the customer groups that need the most support, and how to increase water use efficiency while maintaining financial resilience.

RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager to enter into a PSA with EAS to conduct a comprehensive analysis on all dedicated irrigation meters and mixed-use meters in the amount of $156,710.

ANALYSIS
In 2021, GWP entered into a three-year Agreement with EAS for their consulting services related to the California water conservation legislation, Senate Bill 606 and Assembly Bill 1668. EAS developed WaterViewTM to help water agencies, such as 193 of 379

24b
5 8
8 7
GWP, meet the efficiency and allocation requirements under the new long-term California water conservation legislation. In 2024, GWP renewed a three-year Agreement with EAS to continue with their consulting services related to their WaterViewTM software.

The CII Roadmap Analysis proposed by EAS will utilize the City’s GIS and water consumption data to geolocate the Dedicate Irrigation Meters (DIMs) and Mixed-Use Meters (MUMs), grouping them by customer into premise aggregations, identifying the premise boundaries, and defining the landscaping area within these premise boundaries using heads-up digitization methods. A Coefficient of Variation (CV) analysis which demonstrates water use trend analysis will be performed on a per premise basis and used to determine anomalies of water use. The Analysis will also identify and map out the Special Landscape Areas within each premise. Special Landscape Areas are mapped landscapes dedicated solely to edible plants, areas irrigated with recycled water, water features using recycled water, and areas dedicated to active play such as parks, sports fields, golf courses, and where turf provides a playing surface.

The data from the Analysis will then be integrated into the WaterViewTM software. It will provide GWP with true insight on how water is being used and identify customer groups that need the most support. The Analysis will allow precise, targeted conservation efforts at the group and customer level. These targeted efficiency assessments and outreach capabilities will lead to more effective conservation campaigns while saving money over untargeted, large-scale outreach efforts.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
Not applicable.

FISCAL IMPACT
The CII Roadmap Analysis will cost $156,710 over four years. The expected annual cost is $44,000 per year. The GWP budget can absorb this cost, and the expense will be fully reimbursed through the MWD MAAP Funding annually. Therefore no new appropriation is being requested. The funding is outlined below:

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

AGENDA ITEM
Report: Adopt Plans and Specification for Pacific Park/Edison Elementary School Artificial Turf Replacement Project

1. Resolution adopting the Plans and Specification for the Pacific Park/Edison Artificial Turf Replacement Project, No. 4016; and directing the City Clerk to advertise for bids.

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Consent Calendar
Approved for April 15, 2025 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The project plans and specification has been completed for the Pacific Park/Edison Elementary School Artificial Turf Replacement Project. This project aims to overhaul the artificial turf field, which is a joint-use field between the city and Glendale Unified School District (GUSD). The existing artificial turf, which was installed in 2014, has exceeded its useful life and needs to be replaced. The intent of this item is for the City Council to adopt the project plans and specification and authorize the City Clerk to advertise for bids.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve a resolution to adopt the plans and specification for the Pacific Park/Edison Elementary School Artificial Turf Replacement Project, No. 4016; and direct the City Clerk to advertise for bids.

ANALYSIS
The grand opening for the previous Pacific Park Artificial Turf project was Saturday, March 29, 2014. In the 11 years since this grand opening, this field has been heavily used by GUSD, the city and various community groups. As a result, this field is worn and needs to be replaced.

The artificial turf multipurpose field occupies roughly one-acre which is located on Thomas Edison Elementary School/GUSD property. The city and GUSD jointly use the artificial turf multipurpose field with the city having use of the field daily during non-school hours, weekends and GUSD breaks.

Since completion, the artificial turf multipurpose field has undergone numerous repairs.

Specifically, the field has had a tendency of separating along the seams, where two parallel pieces of turf are stitched together. These seams gradually spread apart and create black visible lines across the field. Additionally, the field separates where field markings are stitched or glued on to the field surface. This field damage distorts the appearance of the field and disturbs the infill causing uneven playing surfaces.

Repairs to the fields are generally handled by either city staff, or by a contractor for more permanent repairs. Numerous sections of the field have been completely removed and replaced over the past 11 years, primarily in areas where the field gets a lot of traffic, like in front of the goals.

Artificial turf is not completely maintenance free. Per the manufacturer’s specifications, the field should be groomed after 80 hours of usage. Grooming fluffs up the fibers allowing them to simulate the play and surface of natural grass. Grooming also spreads the infill and helps remove any dirt or debris otherwise not necessary on the field. The department hires contractors to perform the grooming twice a year in addition to scheduling its own staff to conduct the grooming as necessary. Both the contractor and the city staff have determined that the surface and fibers have reached a level of degradation and are too brittle to sustain further grooming.

On March 12, 2024, the City Council approved a new Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Verde Design Inc., to provide design of new artificial turf, for a cost of $250,940, plus a 10% contingency of $25,094. This consultant has completed the design for a new field surface.

The proposed replacement of the field surface will include the following:
•Shaw, Legion NXT 2.0 turf, which uses the natural geofill product that is 90% coconut husk.
•Stormwater management improvements to address a water runoff problem where the adjacent playground asphalt drains onto the field.
•Eliminate the decomposed granite (DG) areas near the field to avoid the intrusion of DG material into the artificial turf.
•New striping to increase play area and to include a flag football field.

A Phase II will address accessibility requirements from the parking lot to the field and restroom and increases the height of the fencing along Vine Street with 10 feet of netting.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
The Pacific Park/Edison multipurpose field is a high-use facility with multiple users as listed below:

1. Glendale Unified School District /Edison Elementary School: Edison Elementary School, with 840 students, uses the field as a playground space on school days from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The students use the field for PE seasonally and use 203 of 379

4d3
25-87764
5 9
6 4
it as a space to run and play during recess and lunch.

2. City: City uses the field daily during non-school hours, weekends and GUSD breaks for City programs and rentals:
•City Programs: Seasonal Day Camps (125 participants per week), One Glendale After School Youth Sports Program’s Flag Football Season and Soccer Season, (240 unduplicated participants per sports season, 120 participants per day).
•Private Rentals – Youth: A total of five different youth groups use the field seven days a week. These groups use the field typically from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. during the week and throughout the day on Saturday and Sunday.

In addition to weekly practices and training, the youth groups will request additional time to use the field as their “Home Field” during the months of September through November. Combined, these groups represent over 1,100 youth who use the field weekly.
•Private Rentals - Adults: There are eleven adult groups who use the field when it is available on weeknights and weekends. The adult groups’ ages range from 18 years old and older with some groups who have participants who are over the age of 60. Approximately 215 adults are accommodated weekly to play soccer with friends, socializing, exercising, and staying active. In addition to these adults, another 240 adults play in a COED soccer league, on a weekly basis.

All user groups have expressed support for replacing the Pacific Park/Edison artificial turf field. When the field is closed for construction, all impacted users will be notified in advance and the city will do it’s best to accommodate all groups on other available fields to the best of our ability, prioritizing youth groups before adult groups.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. The Pacific Park/Edison Elementary School Artificial Turf Replacement Project construction phase is estimated to cost $1,350,000 which was included as a part of the FY 2024-25 budget.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

AGENDA ITEM

Report: Approval of the Proposed Sub-recipient Funding Awards for the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Program Round 5.

1. Motion to approve the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Program Round 5 proposed sub-recipient funding awards, as recommended by the Continuum of Care (CoC) Board, and authorize the City Manager or a designee to execute all agreements, certifications, and documents necessary to accept and implement the funding.

COUNCIL ACTION

Item Type: Consent Calendar
Approved for April 15, 2025 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The State of California has awarded the City of Glendale $280,408.11 in Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention Program Round 5 (HHAP-5) funds. HHAP-5 funds are designated to support regional coordination and expand or develop local capacity to address homelessness. The HHAP-5 application resulted in the creation of the Regionally Coordinated Homeless Action Plan and a Memorandum of Understanding between County of Los Angeles, Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority, Cities of Los Angeles, Long Beach, Pasadena, and Glendale. While jurisdictions were required to apply together, each jurisdiction has the discretion to receive its base allocation directly. The Glendale Continuum of Care (CoC) has opted to receive its base allocation directly and will be responsible for administering the funds, reporting, and contracting with sub- recipients. Funded programs will align with the City’s funding priorities as specified in the Glendale Homeless Action Plan. The CoC Board has made funding recommendations for four homeless services agencies, totaling $260,779.54. The remaining balance of $19,628.57 will be allocated to the CoC to cover staff salaries associated with the administration of the HHAP-5 Program.

2 {{section.number}}{{item.number}}

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council pass the Motion to approve the HHAP-5 proposed sub-recipient funding awards, as recommended by the Continuum of Care (CoC) Board; and authorize the City Manager to execute all agreements, certifications, and documents necessary to accept and implement the funding.

ANALYSIS
The HHAP-5 program is a $1 billion block grant program, authorized by Section 17 of Assembly Bill 129 and signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom on July 10, 2023, to support regional coordination and expand or develop local capacity to address homelessness.

The grant funds have allowed various uses, such as capacity building, workforce development, funding evidence-based programs, investing in data systems, local homeless action planning, improving homeless point-in-time counts, and delivering permanent housing solutions. At least 10% of funds must be allocated for homeless youth populations, and not more than 7% for administrative costs. HHAP-5 allocations are based on eligible applicants’ proportionate share of the state’s homeless population as reported by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in the Point-In- Time (PIT) count.

The HHAP-5 application process required eligible jurisdictions to apply together as a region and designated seven eligible jurisdictions within Los Angeles County (Los Angeles County, City of Los Angeles, City of Long Beach, and the Continuum of Care for Los Angeles, Glendale, Long Beach, and Pasadena) as a single region. This regional approach resulted in numerous meetings with our regional partners with the County Chief Executive Office’s Homeless Initiative (CEO-HI) team taking the lead of submitting the single application on behalf of the region. This regional coordination also led to creation of the Regionally Coordinated Homeless Action Plan (RCHAP) and a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) among each of the designated entities. (Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2).

While jurisdictions were required to apply together, each jurisdiction has the discretion to receive its base allocation directly.

The Glendale CoC has opted to receive its base allocation directly and will be responsible for administering the funds, reporting, and contracting with sub-recipients. Programs funded further explained below align with the City’s funding priorities as specified in the Glendale Homeless Action Plan (GHAP). However, regional meetings will continue to take place to discuss progress made towards ending homelessness by each entity listed under the RCHAP.

The HHAP-5 application was submitted by the CEO-HI team on March 26, 2024. On October 17, 2024, the Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency's (BCSH) California Interagency Council on Homelessness (Cal ICH) notified the Glendale CoC of its HHAP-5 award in the amount of $280,408.11. The CoC received its initial disbursement of the award totaling $157,860. The remaining balance will be awarded

3 {{section.number}}{{item.number}}
upon demonstrating that the City has obligated and spent no less than 50 percent of the initial disbursement by June 30, 2026, and that the City is on track towards meeting the program goals. (Exhibit 3).

On October 16, 2023, the City released a Request for Proposal (RFP) to community agencies for the HHAP 3 and HHAP 4 funds. The RFP indicated that, should additional funds become available for program extension, the City may offer contract extensions to the winning bidders without issuing a new RFP, ensuring continuity and efficiency. To maintain a fair and open process, on January 22, 2025, the city required existing sub- recipients to submit an updated funding plan and performance measures for CoC Board review and approve. Four (4) existing sub-recipients submitted updated plans. CoC staff reviewed these submissions, ensuring alignment with program goals and outcomes from their current HHAP contracts. Staff also reviewed the most recent financial audits from each agency and requested completion of a Pre-award Risk Assessment form prior to the CoC Board Meeting (Exhibit 4).

On February 26, 2025, City staff worked with the CoC Board to review a total of four (4) funding plans, interview agencies, and finalize funding recommendations for the HHAP- 5 program. (Exhibit 5).

The following CoC Board members deliberated and made the funding recommendations:

 Lt. Alex Krikorian - Chair of CoC Board, Glendale Police Department  Jeffrey Brooks – Vice Chair of CoC Board, Glendale Fire Department  Melissa Younesian – Board Member, Verdugo Jobs Center  Hagop Eulmessekian - Board Member, Glendale Unified School District

FUNDING PRIORITIES
On November 14, 2022, the Glendale CoC Board approved a specific list of eligible activities based on local need. These activities were ranked from highest to lowest priority based on input received from the community and service providers as part of the Glendale Homeless Action Plan stakeholder kick-off meeting. The priority rank was used during deliberations. The top five funding priorities were as follows:

1. Rental Assistance and Rapid Rehousing

2. Landlord Incentives, including but not limited to security deposits and holding fees

3. Prevention and Shelter Diversion to Permanent Housing

4. Interim Housing

5. Outreach and Coordination (which may include access to job programs) to assist vulnerable populations in accessing permanent housing and to promote housing stability in supportive housing

4 {{section.number}}{{item.number}}

The CoC will utilize funds to develop local capacity to address immediate homelessness challenges by operating the following programs:

Rapid Rehousing; Interim Housing for Youth; Systems Support; and Prevention and Shelter Diversion. Less than 7% of funds will be used for administrative costs.

PROGRAM GOALS
Sub-recipients are required to establish program outcomes to monitor progress toward the goal of preventing and ending homelessness based on the system performance measures established by the Cal ICH. (Exhibit 6). Agencies are required to analyze racial and ethnic disparities across various SPMs.

There are seven areas of performance. Proposed programs should align with at least two of the following:

1. Reducing the length of time people experience homelessness

2. Reducing the number of people who return to homelessness

3. Reducing the number of people experiencing homelessness

4. Employment and income growth for people experiencing homelessness

5. Reducing first-time homelessness

6. Homelessness prevention

7. Successful exits to permanent housing after program participation.

HHAP-5 funds must be expended by June 30, 2028. Following Council approval, City staff will work with agencies to finalize HHAP-5 sub-recipient agreements to begin providing services.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
The targeted participants are those experiencing homelessness or at-risk of homelessness in the City of Glendale including single adults, families, and individuals with disabilities, physical and mental health issues, substance use disorders and social service needs.

Potential clients will be screened through the Glendale Outreach Program, Glendale Coordinated Entry Systems (CES). HHAP-5 will provide funding for staff who will utilize best practices to engage and link individuals experiencing homelessness residing on the streets with housing and supportive services.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. The HHAP 5- funds will be budgeted as part of the FY 2025-26 budget process; therefore, no appropriations are requested at this time.

Application Participation Guidance:

Cal ICH encourages eligible applicants to apply in collaboration with all eligible applicants in their CoC Region and submit a single Regionally Coordinated Homelessness Action Plan. Applicants may apply together and still receive funds separately.
 Large Cities must apply as part of the regional application with the County and CoC.  Counties must apply as part of a regional application with the CoC and any overlapping Large Cities.
o In a multi-county CoC: Counties are strongly encouraged to apply in collaboration with other counties that are served by the same CoC.
 A CoC that serves a single county must apply as part of the regional application with the County and any overlapping Large Cities.
 A CoC that serves multiple counties must either :

EXHIBIT 1
o Apply as part of a regional application with multiple Counties and any overlapping Large Cities; and/or
o Participate in the regional application of each overlapping County and the Large Cities therein.

Contracting Guidance:

Each Eligible Applicant (Large City, County, and CoC) has the discretion to receive their base allocation directly or may designate an Eligible Applicant in their region to serve as their Administrative Entity. This selection will indicate to Cal ICH which Eligible Applicant will enter into contract with the state to receive and administer each Eligible Applicant’s HHAP-5 allocation.

The Administrative
Entity is responsible for HHAP funds and meeting the terms and conditions of the contract. Broadly speaking, this means administering funds, contracting (when necessary) with sub- recipients, and reporting on HHAP-5 dollars and activities to Cal ICH.  If you plan to contract with the state to receive and administer only your (single) HHAP-5 allocation, select: “Will enter into contract with the state to receive and administer their HHAP-5 allocation individually” under the contracting selection.  If you do not plan to contract with the state and instead plan to identify another participating Eligible Applicant in the region to enter into contract with the state to receive and administer your HHAP-5 allocation, select: “Identify another participating Eligible Applicant in their region to enter into contract with the state to receive and administer their HHAP-5 allocation” under the contracting selection. You will then be prompted to designate the Administrative Entity from a list of eligible applicants in the region.
 If you plan to contract with the state to receive and administer multiple HHAP-5 allocations within your region, select “Will enter into contract with the state to receive and administer their HHAP-5 allocation and allocation(s) from other Eligible Applicants in the region” under the contracting selection.

Outreach & Site Coordination
Participating Jurisdictions Roles & Responsibilities
Los Angeles County OUTREACH
The LA County Board of Supervisors (Board) allocates a
significant amount of county, state, and federal funding for homeless and housing services to county departments, LAHSA, the City of Glendale CoC, the City of Long Beach CoC, the City of Pasadena CoC, and other cities throughout the county.

LA County, along with LAHSA, provides oversight of the
Coordinated Outreach System, which includes the Department of Health Services’(DHS) Multi-Disciplinary Teams (MDTs), the Department of Mental Health (DMH) Homeless Outreach Mobile Engagement (HOME) Teams, and LAHSA Teams. Together they collaboratively oversee the Coordinated Outreach System.

LAHSA directly staffs the system or Macro Outreach
Coordinators who provide guidance to the regional Outreach Coordinators who are employed at service provider agencies across the entire county. LA County funds both coordination and outreach activities at LAHSA and LA County DHS with local Measure H funds. Most outreach services are contracted through local homeless service providers.

LA County funds outreach services for all six HHAP-5 partners, through the various outreach teams. Two of the CoCs, the City of Glendale CoC and the City of Long Beach CoC, receive funding from LA County for outreach services, including homelessness support services and navigation services. The City of Pasadena CoC does not receive direct county funding for outreach services, but it is covered by LAHSA and LA County DHS outreach teams.

ENCAMPMENT RESOLUTION
Leveraging powers under the state of emergency on
homelessness declared by the Board January 2023, LA County has launched Pathway Home, a major expansion of its ongoing efforts to resolve encampments countywide, including
recreational vehicles, in partnership with local jurisdictions and unincorporated communities. With Pathway Home, LA County hopes to reduce unsheltered homelessness in specific
communities by helping people living on the streets come indoors, receive supportive services they need to achieve housing stability, and ultimately move into permanent housing.

Pathway Home draws on lessons from previous multi-
jurisdictional efforts, such as Project Roomkey during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the City of LA’s Inside Safe Initiative.

Under Pathway Home, LA County works with local service
providers, LAHSA, and other jurisdictional partners to enhance and expedite encampment outreach, interim housing, housing navigation, rental subsidies, benefit establishment, health and behavior health services, and other supportive services. Part of that work includes the implementation of State Encampment Resolution Funds including Every Woman Housed efforts and the Skid Row Action Plan.

LA County is also an integral partner during the planning and response phases of every City of LA Inside Safe encampment resolution and remains in partnership with the City of LA and their Inside Safe participants throughout their housing stabilization process. (See Section 2.3 for more details about the region’s coordinated encampment resolution efforts).

CA 600 - LA City and County (LAHSA) OUTREACH
LAHSA plays a pivotal role in formulating and overseeing the Coordinated Outreach Strategy for the Region of LA. LAHSA works closely with its partners at LA County (LA County DHS and LA County DMH), as well as the City of LA, the City of Glendale CoC, City of Pasadena CoC, and City of Long Beach CoC, as well as smaller City-funded or small nonprofit-led outreach teams to ensure a comprehensive Coordinated Outreach Strategy that can respond to the needs of people experiencing street-based homelessness wherever they find themselves throughout LA County. To coordinate across the large geography of LA County, the Region is managed in eight “Service Planning Areas” (SPAs) that cut across city/county/CoC boundaries and organize sub- regions of the County according to geographic relevance. LAHSA staffs Regional Outreach Coordinators in each of the SPAs, who oversee coordination amongst local outreach teams. Additionally, LAHSA staffs five SPAs with “Macro Coordinators” at LAHSA who actively support each SPA’s Outreach Coordination
activities and who fill gaps for Regional Outreach Coordinators, as needed. The Macro Coordinators also lead critical SPA coordination activities, such as care coordination and case conferencing.

The strategic framework, designed to leverage diverse expertise and ensure comprehensive geographic coverage throughout all of LA County, including all six HHAP-5 partners, is underpinned by three fundamental approaches aimed at optimizing the efficacy of outreach resources:

1. Deployment of Distinct Outreach Modalities and Roles: LAHSA actively collaborates with all regional partners to coordinate and deploy outreach teams, both under its direct supervision and LAHSA Macro Coordinators. The multifaceted deployment
involves aligning regional strategies with the overarching system vision, which is to respond to street-based homelessness including encampment resolution by focusing each system component on a targeted number of key activities and behaviors, in order to achieve system throughput from interim to permanent housing. Currently, local outreach teams coordinate across the region to ensure seamless integration and collaboration in addressing homelessness within specific communities. Outreach coordination crosses city, county, and CoC lines, and outreach teams are deployed to regions as needed. Additionally, Outreach Coordination works with teams from each CoC as well as the City and County. LAHSA will continue to work towards enhancing collaboration and coordination with its partner CoCs to ensure a cohesive and effective approach to outreach efforts across the entire region.

2. Outreach Coordination: LAHSA’s Macro Coordinators maintain a comprehensive inventory of outreach teams (funded by a variety of diverse partners), manage the By-Name List (BNL) for encampment resolutions (Inside Safe and Pathway Home), and coordinate with city and county partners for resolution activities.

They also collaborate with Regional Outreach Coordinators to engage in strategic vision setting. These activities help Macro Coordinators inform and recommend changes to outreach zones in each SPA. Each SPA is divided into hubs to better ensure local coordination. These hubs meet on a weekly or bi-weekly cadence to discuss encampment transitions (movement or
growth), to hear priorities of local officials, and to coordinate care for individual participants. Monthly, LAHSA, LA County DHS, and LA County DMH provide coordinated training and information sessions for all outreach teams across the county. The goal of these is to ensure that all teams have access to the same information about cross-system referrals and reviews of best practices and new resources. There is also a quarterly meeting of the leadership of the key funders for outreach, mainly LA County DHS, LAHSA, LA County DMH, LA County and City of LA. LAHSA has now also begun a quarterly convening that will be open to city officials from across the county to share their concerns and hotspots, and to plan for encampment resolution efforts.

3. Active Management of the Outreach System: LAHSA's Macro Coordinators play a pivotal role in strategizing outreach responses during emergency events such as public health outbreaks, inclement weather, and natural disasters. Additionally, they provide training and support for Regional Coordinators, ensuring adherence to best practices for Outreach Coordination.

The annual Outreach Coordination bootcamp serves as a
platform for knowledge exchange and skill enhancement for all Regional Outreach Coordinators.

The region’s collaborative and comprehensive approach
underscores the region’s commitment to effectively addressing homelessness and creating a more equitable and sustainable system.

ENCAMPMENT RESOLUTION
The largest encampment resolution efforts thus far have been led by the City of LA and LA County, both in close collaboration with LAHSA. Both the City of LA and County are using the LAHSA outreach teams to manage the coordination of the outreach teams working in the impacted area, coordination of the by-name list of the participants moving out of the encampments and have contracted for the interim housing services through LAHSA.

Additionally, LAHSA has two encampment resolution projects funded through state grants that LAHSA is managing through its contracted non-profit providers. LAHSA was also awarded funds for housing navigation and permanent housing resources through the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) CoC Supplemental to Address Unsheltered and Rural Homelessness (Special NOFO) competition that are being deployed across the county to support encampment resolution efforts as well as expediting flow through interim housing for previously
unsheltered participants.

Across the county, there are hundreds of encampments that deserve to be prioritized for encampment resolution. Sites are selected according to: encampments whose residents are
members of demographic groups that have been
disproportionately impacted by homelessness and poverty, sites in communities which have been disproportionately impacted by homelessness and poverty, the size and scale of the
encampment, availability of interim /permanent housing nearby, the potential for harm to residents and neighboring communities from fires, flash floods, or other hazards, and the strength of the existing relationship between outreach partners and
encampment residents. Oftentimes, encampments border
multiple cities, as well as unincorporated LA County, so collaboration is key to all encampment resolutions.

CA 612 - Glendale CoC OUTREACH
The City of Glendale CoC is part of SPA 2 “San Fernando Valley” of eight (8) SPAs that comprise LA County. In this configuration, The City of Glendale CoC shares territorial borders with SPA 3 to the east and SPA 4 to the south. The population of Glendale represents 2% of the population of LA County. The City of Glendale CoC is responsible for oversight of three robust outreach teams that cover 100% of the CoC’s geographic area, with the primary goal of engaging all unsheltered homeless persons and those fleeing DV and related crimes in the
community. Outreach efforts in the City of Glendale CoC aim to provide immediate assistance and link individuals to appropriate resources such as shelters, health care, mental health services, and housing assistance. Although the CoC’s outreach teams cover the entire geographic area, they focus heavily on areas with higher concentrations of homelessness where unsheltered individuals are more likely to be found. The CoC uses GIS mapping each time outreach teams conduct intakes and reviews the data quarterly to increase outreach efforts in specific areas.

The CoC and its local partners meet regularly to tailor outreach and engagement, which involves partnershipswith health care agencies, people with lived expertise, law enforcement, and LA County DMH licensed clinicians to reduce chronic homelessness.

In addition, the City of Glendale is part of the San Fernando Valley Councils of Government (COG). The COG meets monthly with our local partners, which includes members from LA County.

The City of Glendale CoC also works directly with LA County on the Measure H distribution of funds to the City of Glendale CoC.

ENCAMPMENT RESOLUTION
The City of Glendale is seeking to coordinate additional funding for encampment resolution, such as applying for Cal-ICH Encampment Resolution Funding (ERF).

CA 606 - Long Beach CoC & City of
Long Beach

OUTREACH
The City of Long Beach CoC (Long Beach CoC & City of Long Beach) is located in SPA 8 of LA County and shares territorial borders with SPA 7 (East LA), and SPA 6 (South LA). The City of Long Beach CoC covers the entire geographic area of the City of Long Beach, including overlapping governmental land within the limits of the City of Long Beach.

The City of Long Beach CoC primarily serves single adult households for the City of Long Beach, while collaborating with LAHSA, LA County, and LA County CES SPA lead partners to coordinate and deliver services to youth and families
experiencing homelessness and/or at-imminent risk of
homelessness in Long Beach.

The City of Long Beach operates an outreach team which
coordinates with City departments such as police, parks, and public works to conduct outreach within the CoC. The City of Long Beach also coordinates with other public/government entities (LAHSA, LA Metro, LA County Sheriff, LA County Public Works, LA County DMH, LA County DHS) outside of the City of Long Beach to ensure that outreach is well-coordinated in and across multi-jurisdictional geographies. Outreach is conducted via a wide range of approaches, including standard field-based teams, library outreach, operation of two mobile access centers, mental health outreach, police department quality of life officers, and the City of Long Beach’s alternative response team focused on responses for people experiencing homelessness Restorative Engagement to Achieve Collective Health (REACH) team.

ENCAMPMENT RESOLUTION
The City of Long Beach is currently programming encampment resolution projects at two geographic areas within the City of Long Beach, funded by Rounds 1 and 2 of the State’s ERF Program. Both projects are coordinated as a network of
resources and services frequently utilized by persons
experiencing unsheltered homelessness and delivered as an interdepartmental collaborative involving the City of Long Beach’s Homeless Services Bureau, Public Works, Parks,
Police, and Fire Departments.

Program implementation is led by the City of Long Beach’s Homeless Services Bureau (HSB), which leads outreach and engagement to the encampments. The Interdepartmental (ITP) team includes outreach staff from the HSB including our community crisis response, the REACH team, which is a multi- disciplinary team that consists of: mental health clinician, public health nurse, and an outreach staff; the Mobile Access Center (MAC); Library outreach staff; Quality of Life officers (QOL) from the Long Beach Police Department; Public Works Clean Team; Parks department personnel; and 2 Designated Long Beach Fire Department Personnel (HEART). The REACH assesses
individuals for physical and mental health concerns and connects them to shelter and housing options. The MAC supports the teams by providing a place for in-field care coordination and case management. The MAC is staffed by 2 case managers and a public health nurse. In addition to City of Long Beach staff, the encampments also receive support through the County Mobile Health Clinic once a month which allows people to meet with an MD and psychiatrist, as well as Shower of Hope, which provides access to hygiene and sanitation services on a weekly basis.

City of Los Angeles OUTREACH
On September 14, 2021, the City of LA City Council adopted the Outreach Engagement Framework, which instructed the City of LA to develop a Citywide strategy on how its existing and new outreach efforts will coordinate to ensure that a person experiencing homelessness can secure and maintain a
permanent housing placement. Currently the majority of outreach to people experiencing homelessness conducted within the City is contracted through LAHSA. LAHSA-contracted outreach
provides system navigation, Homeless Engagement Teams
(Generalists, CARE/CARE+), Homeless Engagement Teams (C3 Partnership) and Homeless Engagement Teams (Operation
Healthy Streets). Individual Council Districts also contract directly with homeless outreach service providers to address the unique outreach needs of their respective Council districts. The City of LA will continue to collaborate with LA County to ensure that people experiencing homelessness are connected with the substance abuse and mental health services needed to maintain permanent housing.

The Outreach Engagement Framework is structured around
three key types of engagement: emergency outreach, service- focused outreach, and sanitation outreach. Emergency outreach is focused on an immediate threat to the health and safety of persons experiencing homelessness, due to a natural disaster or a personal mental health crisis. Service-focused outreach on the work needed to help people obtain services that will remove barriers and lead to permanent housing. Finally, sanitation outreach concerns engagements needed during the City of LA Bureau of Sanitation’s CARE+ Comprehensive Clean-up or Spot Clean-up operations, to ensure the health and safety of people living in encampments identified as in need of sanitation services.

ENCAMPMENT RESOLUTION
The City of LA’ largest encampment resolution effort is the Inside Safe strategy. Mayor Karen Bass’ Inside Safe Program works closely with City Council Districts and City departments to identify priority encampments throughout the City of LA. Encampments are prioritized according to size in terms of population and the acuity of the encampment residents. Based on a housing first model, the Inside Safe Program has moved over 1,200
encampment residents directly into motel rooms. Once inside, participants are engaged by service providers to determine their individual needs to seek and secure permanent housing. The City of LA has received three ERF program fund grants for the LA River Project in Council District 4, the Ballona Wetlands Project in Council District 11 and the Skid Row Project, which is a collaborative project between the Office of Mayor Karen Bass and the LA County DHS. The LA River Project serves a network of encampments along the LA River (River) beginning East of the 405 in the neighborhood of Sherman Oaks, near the Sepulveda Basin to the Glendale Narrows on Riverside Drive and Fletcher Drive in Silver Lake. To date the project has moved 55
encampment residents into interim shelters and housed five residents in permanent placements. The Project Manager for the Ballona Wetlands Project is currently working with LAHSA to secure Rapid Rehousing (RRH) slots to move vehicular
encampment residents in the Ballona Wetlands Ecological Reserve directly into RRH slots. The Skid Row Project is a close collaboration between the City of LA’ Mayor's Office and LA County, focused on moving residents in the Skid Row
encampments into interim housing. The project includes
negotiation of a master leased property to give residents more stability than traditional shelter beds.

CA 607 - Pasadena CoC OUTREACH
The City of Pasadena CoC is located in SPA 3 of LA County and shares borders with SPA 2 and SPA 4. The City of Pasadena CoC covers the entire geographic area of the City of Pasadena.

The City of Pasadena CoC’s street outreach teams conduct outreach throughout the entire geographic area and target known hotspots such as parks, churches, train stations, the emergency room and encampments to quickly identify and engage all people experiencing unsheltered homelessness to connect them to services and housing resources. Street outreach teams canvas the City of Pasadena CoC regularly looking for signs of encampments or unhoused people and approach everyone they encounter. Street outreach workers are racially and-ethnically diverse with lived experience of homelessness and emphasize non-coercive engagement techniques. Outreach logs are
maintained to track engagement and food/drink is offered as an icebreaker. Outreach is conducted more frequently to hidden areas (i.e. freeway embankments) to ensure that all people are identified and engaged. A multidisciplinary (MDT) team with a firefighter and social worker are integrated with the City of Pasadena Police Department dispatch center and respond to non-emergency calls and calls from the local hospital. Street outreach teams work closely with churches, health care, and nonprofit providers and are integrated with a publicly available online portal that allows community members to make outreach requests. If appropriate, street outreach teams will engage family members who can offer support. Street outreach teams meet monthly to discuss opportunities for continued coordination and service improvement.

ENCAMPMENT RESOLUTION
The City of Pasadena CoC’s Encampment Resolution project is funded by the State’s Encampment Resolution Fund Round 2.

The project targets encampments on Cal Trans property,
specifically the embankments of the 210 and 134 freeways. The project is a partnership between the City of Pasadena’s PORT (Pasadena Outreach Response Team) team and Union Station Homeless Services, the lead service provider for SPA 3 and Pasadena for single adults and families. Both teams conduct outreach and place individuals in motels while Union Station provides Housing Navigation services.

Given the individual roles and responsibilities identified above, describe and explain how all participating jurisdictions are or will begin to coordinate these efforts to ensure comprehensive outreach and site coordination to individuals experiencing and at-risk of experiencing homelessness in the region.

Regional Coordination Narrative - Outreach & Site Coordination All participating HHAP-5 partners benefit from and take part in the LA County’s Coordinated Outreach System. This system coordinates outreach workers throughout the county in their efforts to connect individuals and families experiencing unsheltered homelessness to wrap-around services, shelter, and permanent housing. The Coordinated Outreach System serves as the local regional infrastructure to improve standardization among outreach efforts, as well as to reduce gaps or redundancies in outreach sites.

LA County provides funding for the Coordinated Outreach System, including LA County DHS’ Multi- Disciplinary Teams (MDTs), LA County DMH’s Homeless Outreach Mobile Engagement (HOME) Teams, and LAHSA Teams. LAHSA, oversees the Coordinated Outreach System. LAHSA, in collaboration with its partners at LA County DHS and LA County DMH, plays a pivotal role in formulating the Coordinated Outreach Strategy for the region. In addition to Regional Outreach Coordinators housed at the Adult CES lead agency in each SPA, LAHSA supplements that with Macro Coordinators who actively support and fill gaps for Regional Outreach Coordinators as needed. The Macro Coordinators provide critical services such as care coordination and case conferencing.

The Region’s collaborative and comprehensive approach to outreach underscores the Region’s commitment to effectively addressing homelessness and creating a more equitable and sustainable system. The strategic framework is designed to leverage diverse expertise and ensure comprehensive geographic coverage throughout all of LA County, including all six HHAP-5 partners, while optimizing the efficacy of outreach resources.

LA County also collaborates with LAHSA and cities, including HHAP-5 Partners, and Councils of Government (COGs) to develop plans and funding for encampment resolution, including:

1. Outreach to individuals residing in encampments.

2. Identifying and offering interim housing.

3. Matching to resources and providing housing navigation services to offer people permanent housing.

4. Providing supportive services in both interim and permanent housing.

Encampment resolution efforts are coordinated with LAHSA, the City of LA, LA County, and local jurisdictions, including City of Glendale CoC, City of Long Beach CoC, and City of Pasadena CoC. Across the county, there are hundreds of encampments to prioritize for encampment resolution. In January 2023, LA County launched Pathway Home, a major expansion of its ongoing efforts to resolve encampments countywide, including recreational vehicles, in partnership with local jurisdictions and unincorporated communities. With Pathway Home, LA County hopes to reduce unsheltered homelessness in specific communities by helping people living on the streets come indoors, receive supportive services they need to achieve housing stability, and ultimately move into permanent housing. Sites are selected using various criteria including: encampments whose residents are members of demographic groups that have been disproportionately impacted by homelessness and poverty; sites in communities which have been disproportionately impacted by homelessness and poverty; the size and scale of the encampment; availability of interim /permanent housing nearby; the potential for harm to encampment residents and neighboring communities from fires, flash floods, or other hazards; and the strength of the existing relationship between outreach partners and encampment residents. Oftentimes, encampments border multiple cities as well as unincorporated LA County, so collaboration between jurisdictions is key to all encampment resolution.

In addition to these existing efforts, all HHAP-5 partners have committed to improving their coordination of outreach services in the Region of LA County. Specifically, the partners will maintain and leverage existing networks of communication that promote collaboration in outreach and site coordination efforts. They have committed to look at all relevant existing meetings and consider how to leverage them to promote regional solutions and to ensure collaboration on common HHAP 5 goals, expand communication around the availability of those spaces for collaboration and coordination, and assess whether there are additional partners that want to be or could be included.

The HHAP-5 partners will establish a periodic meeting, at least quarterly, to collaboratively implement the Regional Action Plan. This multi-purpose meeting space will be used by partners to peer-share and coordinate for the common HHAP-5 goals, including outreach and site coordination. LA County will convene the periodic meeting, but all HHAP partners will participate equally. Partners can share best practices related to encampment resolution and outreach services. The opportunity to peer-share may organically lead to new collaborative agreements and policies between jurisdictions.

Land Use & Development
Participating Jurisdictions Roles & Responsibilities
Los Angeles County LA County’s Chief Executive Office assesses county-owned land on an ongoing basis to determine its feasibility for use as homeless housing. In addition, LA County is establishing a land banking pilot, which will acquire properties in areas at risk of gentrification and displacement and set them aside for
development of affordable housing.

LA County’s permitting departments, including the Departments of Public Works, Regional Planning, Public Health, and Fire, collaborate to expedite and streamline the production of affordable housing, including homeless housing. LA County has jurisdiction over properties located in the unincorporated areas of the county and over county-owned or leased properties within incorporated areas. As a part of the County’s Declaration of State of Emergency on Homelessness, it is building out a concierge system to support affordable housing developers seeking to complete projects within the County’s jurisdiction. The LA County Department of Regional Planning has also drafted, and the Board has passed, several ordinances related to homeless housing. These include an Interim and Supportive Housing Ordinance, which is meant to encourage the development of housing that is critical to ending homelessness and an
Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, which requires new residential projects to set aside units for affordable housing.

CA 600 - LA City and County (LAHSA) LAHSA does not play a direct role in land use development, however, both the City of LA and LA County (though primarily the City of LA) have utilized the programmatic expertise at LAHSA to explore the best uses of land as they are considering developing shelters or other programs. In this capacity, LAHSA has provided feedback on the siting of shelters, the population to be served in specific projects, and even the architectural design of the projects to ensure appropriate consideration is given to the space needs of the participants and the service provider.

CA 612 - Glendale CoC The City of Glendale CoC works with various City Departments, which include Planning, Community Development and the
Housing Authority to complete the identification, location, and siting of programs and services for persons experiencing homelessness.

The City of Glendale also operates its own Public Housing Authority which is responsible for providing different voucher programs that provide ongoing rent subsidies to private scattered site property owners, as well as for affordable housing developments. The City of Glendale CoC also administers several Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) Programs and Rental Assistance Programs with funding from the HUD under the CoC Program.

As part of the HOME-ARP Allocation Plan, the City of Glendale recently embarked on a collaborative effort to address the pressing issue of affordable housing and related services within the community. Through the HOME-ARP process, several critical needs emerged, including the demand for more affordable housing options. The City of Glendale made significant policy changes in the past 12 months to facilitate more affordable housing in the jurisdiction. The City of Glendale adopted a citywide Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance, which mandates the inclusion of affordable housing units in new development. The policy is aligned with the City of Glendale’s Housing Element Housing Plan, which includes key priorities such as promoting zoning flexibility to encourage a wide range of housing production and promoting the development of housing for special needs groups (i.e., individuals with disabilities, the elderly, large families, single-parent households, people experiencing or formerly homeless. City of Glendale policy encourages
developers to provide affordable housing units by offering density bonuses and other financial incentives. The passage of SB 1177 authorized the creation of Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena
Regional Housing Trust (BGPRHT), which was granted the
authority to fund planning and construction of affordable housing projects in the region, further bolstering Glendale's commitment to affordable housing solutions. A groundbreaking ceremony took place on June 30, 2023, when the City of Glendale, in
partnership with Linc Housing and National CORE, initiated the construction of 340 affordable apartments designed to
accommodate families and seniors, including those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. The development
represents one of the largest new affordable housing projects in California, which included funding from a variety of sources such as Local Measure S and HOME-ARP funds.

CA 606 - Long Beach CoC & City of
Long Beach
The City of Long Beach operates an internal Affordable Housing Work Group, as well as a Homeless Land and Property Team that is focused on identification of potential land that could be utilized for homeless-related services such as shelter or PSH, as well as a broader focus on increasing affordable housing within the City of Long Beach. The City of Long Beach is responsible for zoning and permitting of projects whether owned by the City of Long Beach or privately.

The City of Long Beach CoC works across and with City of Long Beach Departments to complete the identification, location, and siting of programs and services for persons experiencing homelessness. In January of 2023, the City of Long Beach issued an Emergency Proclamation to Address Homelessness.

Through this proclamation, the City of Long Beach committed to a number of immediate and long-range plans to rapidly deploy additional resources, while finding long-term solutions to address the causes of homelessness within Long Beach. As part of the emergency efforts, the City of Long Beach sought to implement programming at underutilized and surplus City property to site programs. Through these efforts, the City of Long Beach was able to convert City-owned facilities into safe parking locations, a Recreational Vehicle (RV) sanitation center, as well as space to create new non-congregate sheltering resources with the development of new modular units (aka “tiny homes”).

Further identification and location of property for use as homeless programming is conducted by the City of Long Beach real estate team, housed within the Economic Development Department, who takes lead for the City to identify land that the City could acquire. Over the last year, the City has successfully partnered with LA County to purchase a 26,000 square foot warehouse and convert the warehouse to operate as a
congregate shelter for homeless individuals. The City of Long Beach real estate team identified the site and brokered the sale, with funding supporting the acquisition and development provided by LA County, with the county committing to fund up to half of the costs of acquisition and construction. The site is already up and running, providing shelter and services for approximately 120 individual adults, with the services funded by LAHSA, as further show of collaboration.

The City of Long Beach also operates its own Public Housing Authority which is responsible for providing different voucher programs that provide ongoing rent subsidies to private scattered site property owners, as well as for affordable housing developments. In addition to providing rental assistance and financial assistance to persons experiencing homelessness, the Long Beach Housing Authority is partnering with the LA County Development Authority to provide project-based rental assistance in two county-owned and operated Project Homekey sites that are located within the City of Long Beach.

City of Los Angeles In 2021, the City of LA’s Office of the City Administrative Officer (CAO) developed a Property Review and Evaluation Process (PREP) to review sites for the use of homeless facility or interim housing. The process begins with a formal or informal request to the CAO’s Asset Management Group to evaluate a publicly- or privately-owned property from a Council motion, the CAO Homelessness Initiatives Group, or other City Departments. The CAO’s Asset Management Group begins the evaluation, guided by several factors in the Asset Evaluation Framework (AEF) previously adopted by City Council and the PREP. The outcome is the creation of a ‘Property Profile’ that includes information from shared databases across City departments, zoning
regulations, environmental factors, ownership details, proximity to transit, and community resources. The CAO Homelessness Initiatives Group then reviews the Property Profile for size requirements and works with the appropriate controlling City department to determine the availability and feasibility of interim housing or safe parking.

If privately-owned, the City of LA General Services Department (GSD) negotiates lease terms with the owner. When the site is publicly-owned, the Homelessness Initiatives Group then recommends the property's future use to the Municipal Facilities Committee (MFC) or the controlling department’s oversight board and the Housing & Homelessness Committee. The City of LA’s Mayor and Council will then consider the reports and approve or decline the recommendation for funding or lease terms of the site.

Once a project is approved and funded, the responsible
departments execute the lease and license agreement,
implement construction, and put service contracts in place. The CAO Homelessness Initiatives Group coordinates and tracks project implementation with the Council Office and responsible departments.

As part of the ‘Feasibility Analysis’ of the PREP, the
Homelessness Initiatives Group staff works closely with the City of LA Bureau of Engineering (BOE) to assess sites for interim housing and LAHSA to assess the need for safe parking in the area.

CA 607 - Pasadena CoC The City of Pasadena Department of Housing’s Affordable Housing Development Division and Supportive Housing Division (the City of Pasadena’s CoC) work closely together to identify potential land that could be utilized for homeless-related services, such as shelter or PSH, as well as a broader focus on increasing affordable housing within the City of Pasadena. The Department’s Rental Assistance Division (Housing Authority) is responsible for providing different voucher programs that provide ongoing rent subsidies to private scattered site property owners, as well as for affordable housing developments. Further identification and location of property for use as homeless programming is conducted by the City’s real estate team which is housed within the Economic Development Division of the City of Pasadena Manager’s Office.

In the past five years, Pasadena has successfully sited and developed two PSH buildings and a winter shelter with a third affordable housing/PSH site in the pre-development stages. All sites are within the boundaries of the City of Pasadena CoC/City of Pasadena, and two are on City of Pasadena property. In 2023 the City of Pasadena amended its Zoning Code to allow for safe parking programs on up to 74 sites occupied by transit stations, colleges, and religious facilities in non-residential zones. The Zoning Code amendment also expanded the areas of Pasadena zoned for emergency shelters, low-barrier navigation centers, and limited emergency shelters.

Given the individual roles and responsibilities identified above, describe and explain how all participating jurisdictions are or will begin to coordinate these efforts to use and develop available land to address and end homelessness in the region.

Regional Coordination Narrative - Land Use & Development Siting and use of land is local in nature; it is based on local policies passed through the County Board of Supervisors, City Councils, local referendums, taxes, etc. The cities of Glendale, Long Beach, LA, and Pasadena each have their own local processes and procedures regarding siting and using available land to address homelessness in their particular city. LA County is responsible for land use decisions in unincorporated parts of the Region.

While most efforts are very local, coordination and collaboration between the jurisdictions does occur in different forms, for example, when they are dealing with land that is located at the intersection of jurisdictions or when a jurisdictional entity passes through another jurisdiction (e.g., CalTrans, Metro, etc.).

While local policies have the greatest impact on siting and using available land, each of the six HHAP-5 partners has effectively collaborated at some level with their HHAP-5 partners.

While the literal siting and using land available occurs at the local level, City of Glendale CoC, City of Long Beach CoC, City of LA, and City of Pasadena CoC often coordinate with LAHSA and/or LA County to determine funding for the development of land and/or what service delivery is possible for a potential development site. These conversations occur early in the process, when cities are discussing siting and land use availability and before the permitting and site acquisition process to ensure a potential site will secure necessary development funding and necessary supportive services. For example, City of LA recently coordinated with LAHSA to ensure the development plans for a safe parking project would align with the local sites’ limitations. After the City of LA identifies and acquires the site, LAHSA will partner to provide insight on what service delivery is most appropriate at the site, etc.

Structures that already exist for collaboration and coordination that jurisdictions participate in the county include the county-led Affordable Housing Coordinating Committee, Cities and Councils of Governments (CoGs) meetings, the LA County Affordable Housing Solutions Agency monthly Board of Directors Meetings, and quarterly Southern California Association of Nonprofit Housing (SCANPH) Affordable Housing Meeting. In addition to regular participation in these regional convenings, all six participating partners have committed to better sharing insights with each other about siting and land use to address and end homelessness. While there may be limited on-the-ground collaborations, the regular periodic HHAP-5 partner meetings will provide opportunities for every partner to engage in peer sharing, develop best practices, and identify future collaboration opportunities. Under LA County’s leadership, all HHAP partners will participate in meetings equally to produce best practices related to site acquisition and community engagement, talk about different approaches to siting, and share policy strategies that can impact and enhance further development of housing and services targeted toward preventing and ending homelessness.

Development of Interim and Permanent Housing Options
Participating Jurisdictions Roles & Responsibilities
Los Angeles County LA County uses a variety of tools to increase the housing stock for people experiencing, or at risk or homelessness. The LA County Board declared a Shelter Crisis in 2018, which has been extended annually since then, including in November 2023. The Crisis Declaration has enabled LA County to expedite the creation of interim housing options to meet the urgent shelter needs of unhoused residents in the region. Various county- owned properties have been utilized as interim housing.

The County has also acquired and developed other interim housing sites through the Homekey program and through the LA County DHS’ Housing for Health Capital Improvement
Intermediary Program. Through these efforts, the County has on its own or with development partners acquired,
rehabbed/constructed, and operationalized interim housing sites that serve various populations.

LA County’s Board adopted a motion in November 2022 that dedicated $10 million in Homeless, Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Round 3 funding to support interim housing operations sited by Cities and Councils of Governments (CoGs).

The motion has enabled the County to provide funding for five (5) different interim housing programs across LA County, within the following jurisdictions: Culver City, Pomona, Redondo Beach, Montebello, and San Gabriel Valley CoG, with more in the pipeline.

The Board approved a comprehensive affordable housing plan in 2015 and 2017 that currently invests $100 million every year to build and rehab low- and very low-income housing across the county. The County’s LA Community Development Authority (LACDA) issues at least one Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) annually to award developers with funding to assist the development and construction or renovation of multi-family rental housing for special needs populations. Since 2016, 160
development projects have received capital funding or rental assistance through the LACDA NOFA and over 11,000
affordable homes have been funded. The Affordable Housing Programs’ Budget is a key funding source for the LACDA NOFA.

For FY 2023-24, the Board has allocated $97.705 million from the Affordable Housing Program Budget’s current fiscal year funding and prior year carryover. This amount includes a gap fund for previously awarded projects requiring additional funding to complete construction.

Annually, the California Strategic Growth Council (SGC) awards Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC)
Program funds for affordable housing and sustainable
transportation to decrease vehicle miles traveled and reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). To date, LA County has
partnered with developers and the City of LA to receive over $130 million in AHSC funding to develop 828 affordable housing units at seven project sites; and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by increasing public transit ridership and creating over a dozen miles of bicycle and pedestrian pathways. LA County Chief Executive Office- Homeless Initiative (CEO—HI) is working with its technical consultant, Enterprise Community Partners, to prepare competitive applications with developers for AHSC Round 8 due in spring 2024.

In addition, LA County DHS administers funding for and oversees the supportive services necessary for PSH sites to provide the needed supports to help tenants maintain their housing and access benefits.

LA County also oversees a portfolio of Homekey PSH projects.

To secure state Homekey grants, the County committed
$317,382,251 in local matching funds for both capital and operating costs. Through Homekey, LA County has partnered with developers and community-based organizations to add 1,436 interim housing beds and 1,450 PSH units to the region's supply of housing for people experiencing homelessness.

LA County also supports Unit Acquisition (UA) efforts through partnerships with LA County DHS and LAHSA, in an effort to increase private market rentals to match people experiencing homelessness with tenant-based rental assistance, such as RRH, Federal vouchers, and other local funded vouchers. The county has contracted with local Managed Care Plans, Health Net and LA Care, to support expanding existing UA programs and launching the pilot Master Lease program with LAHSA.

CA 600 - LA City and County (LAHSA) The system is most effective in driving throughput when all parts of the system – from interim to permanent components -- have a clear and targeted focus on the most essential core
activities/behaviors, allowing each part of the system to excel at its most critical functions. As the countywide homeless system lead, LAHSA has begun shifting to a more hands-on approach called Active System Management (ASM). The goal of ASM is to ensure each component of the homeless response system is utilizing all existing resources and is performing as effectively as possible to support maximum throughput to permanent housing.

This includes a focus on turning over interim housing resources and maximizing utilization of permanent housing resources.

Implementation of ASM across all system components is
currently underway and being expedited in response to the need to quickly bring people indoors and subsequently move them to permanent housing. LAHSA staff are leading coordination efforts with providers and driving client level progress of assessment completion, document collection, housing navigation assignment, and progress on a permanent housing pathway. Additionally, LAHSA is working to bring more interim housing and permanent housing options online. These include interim housing options throughout the City of LA and county, including the use of motels, and various permanent housing options available through new encampment resolution initiatives, including RRH and PSH.

Successful implementation of the rehousing effort will be dependent on the availability of permanent housing resources available to respond to the emergency. To understand the amount and ratio of each type of resource that is needed for a comprehensive, systemwide rehousing strategy, LAHSA created a funding plan to create visibility for resource needs and shared priorities for addressing gaps and moving toward a balanced system in the coming years. With an inadequately resourced or imbalanced system, LA will not be able to effectively rehouse people once placed in interim housing, which means people may get stalled in different parts of the system, or that resources in the system may be underutilized. As more interim and
permanent housing resources are brought online, LAHSA
continues to work to balance out the system so as to create flow through the system and house the most people possible.

LAHSA, with support from LA County, the State, and Medi-Cal managed care plans, is also actively working to significantly augment the availability of permanent housing options by advancing the Master Leasing program throughout the City of LA and LA County. The strategic objective is to master-lease 800 units by the conclusion of FY23-24, with plans to further expand this initiative in FY24-25. This expansion is geared towards broadening the spectrum of permanent housing accessible to participants engaged from encampment resolution efforts as well as those transitioning from interim housing programs. The overarching goal is to facilitate increased turnover of interim housing beds within the system by helping participants access stable, permanent housing.

LAHSA will also take on property management of these master- leased units, and directly administer rental assistance payments for participants in these units. Supporting the region-wide goal in expanding permanent housing resources, this strategic approach underscores LAHSA's dedication to fostering lasting solutions to homelessness and facilitating a more efficient and impactful Master Leasing program.

CA 612 - Glendale CoC As part of the HOME-ARP Allocation Plan, the City of Glendale recently embarked on a collaborative effort to address the pressing issue of affordable housing and related services within the community. Through the HOME-ARP process several critical needs emerged, including the demand for more affordable housing options.

accommodate families and seniors, including those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. The development
represents one of the largest new affordable housing projects in California, which included funding from a variety of sources such as Local Measure S and HOME-ARP funds. The City of Glendale is open to additional partnership opportunities with LA County to increase interim and permanent supportive housing programs.

Currently, the City of Glendale is utilizing State funds to develop interim housing programs, however, there is a need for a more ongoing stream of funding and partnerships to support this initiative.

Glendale has also increased the number of rapid rehousing (RRH) beds to quickly transition the unhoused while working with families and individuals to gain access to permanent housing, such as Section 8 housing vouchers and Emergency Housing Vouchers and PSH Programs awarded through the HUD.

CA 606 - Long Beach CoC & City of
Long Beach
The City of Long Beach CoC is committed to developing both shelter and PSH options throughout the geographic region. The City of Long Beach CoC collaborates with county partners to acquire, fund, and develop congregate shelters, as well as collaborates with State partners to develop non-congregate shelter. The City of Long Beach CoC leverages partnerships with LA County DHS and local resources to provide PSH to
individuals within the City of Long Beach CoC.

Through the CoC’s annual competition, the City of Long Beach CoC has committed to fund capital for new projects, as well as fund operations for permanent housing resources in the
geographic limits. Examples of successful collaboration and coordination with our regional, jurisdictional partners includes the opportunity to partner with LA County and LAHSA to site, acquire, and develop property for use as congregate shelter and to further partner on the implementation and coordination of programs and services. The City of Long Beach’s ABC shelter (Atlantic Bridge Community), located in North Long Beach, was a project conceived by the City, with the City proposing to create the project through a competitive solicitation funded by the county (funded with Measure H funds), and administered by LAHSA. The City of Long Beach successfully requested and received capital funding through a 2017 Capital RFP. The City of Long Beach’s proposal was selected, received capital funding for acquisition and development. The City of Long Beach worked expeditiously to complete the project, which has been up and running, providing 125 beds of Crisis and Bridge Housing since 2020. The site and program continues to be fully operational, which operates through partnership with LA County and LAHSA, with funds for the services and operations made available with county Measure H funds, administered via contract with LAHSA.

Through similar efforts in 2023, the City of Long Beach and LA County were able to rapidly plan and coordinate for the identification, acquisition, and conversion of a warehouse, located at 702 W. Anaheim in the City of Long Beach, into a second congregate shelter, providing an additional 100+ beds of Crisis and Bridge Housing. In early 2023, the City of Long Beach and LA County released homelessness emergency declarations.

Per the County’s emergency declaration, LA County committed to identifying departmental liaisons who will work with City counterparts to enhance efforts with outreach teams to assess and connect unsheltered individuals experiencing homelessness to county departmental services they are eligible for with the goal of getting people into housing and to establishing teams who will work directly with interim housing providers to ensure that clients in interim housing are assessed and connected to county departmental services that they are eligible for, including providing services onsite as needed to ensure service
connection. Due to this alignment of priorities, the City of Long Beach and LA County were able to successfully partner on this project, with LA County committing to provide up to half of the costs of acquisition and development. An agreement with the County to provide funds, made available with Measure H dollars, was rapidly executed. The City of Long Beach real estate team successfully brokered the deal to acquire the site. The City of Long Beach then partnered with LAHSA to transfer program participants and program operations to the new location, with services beginning late April 2023.

In addition to these efforts, the City of Long Beach has been able to successfully partner with the State and County to acquire, develop, and implement Project Homekey sites. The City of Long Beach was able to successfully obtain Project Homekey funding from the California Department of Housing and Community Development to acquire and develop three projects within the City of Long Beach. Of these, one project is fully operational, with a former Best Western currently operating as non-congregate interim housing, operated by the City of Long Beach and First to Serve, a non-profit partner. A second site is under construction, with plans to open as additional non-congregate interim housing in 2025, to be operated by First to Serve. A third site, to be operated as modular units (“tiny homes”) is still in early stages of development, as the City of Long Beach has had to work to resolve land use issues with a number of community members and partners.

Beyond those Project Homekey projects owned and operated by the City, the City of Long Beach is also working to partner with LA County on the funding and operation of Project Homekey sites that are now converting from non-congregate shelter to permanent supportive housing. The County owns two Homekey sites that operate in the City of Long Beach, with the LA County Development Authority serving as the owner/landlord/property manager of these sites. As permanent housing programs,
participants will be identified from Long Beach Coordinated Entry (CE), with case management and supportive services provided by LA County DHS, and rental subsidy provided by the City of Long Beach Housing Authority who has committed to provide the rental subsidies by way of project-based vouchers for the two sites.

The City of Long Beach also has a Community Development Department, which serves as the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG)
administrator for the City of Long Beach. The City of Long Beach CoC partners with Development Services to coordinate the allocation, distribution, and programming of those funds, as well as supporting Development Services with coordination,
development, completion, and submission of the Consolidated Plan, Housing Element, as well as partnering to support and fund the development of affordable housing including supportive housing projects.

City of Los Angeles The development of interim and permanent housing in the City of LA uses a whole of government approach; the various elements of development are the responsibility of multiple departments and agencies within the City of LA. The main focus is to streamline our permitting process in particular to permitting PSH and affordable housing to attract developers. The increased development will increase the supply of PSH and affordable housing in the City of LA.

1. The financing of interim housing is coordinated through the CAO with funds from local, state, and federal sources. The financing of permanent housing is coordinated through the Housing Department (LAHD) with local, state, and federal sources. In addition to LAHD, the Housing Authority of The City of LA (HACLA), a HUD Local Public Housing Agency (PHA), provides Project Based Vouchers (PBV) and various portable tenant-based vouchers to help fund the development of
permanent housing.

2. The entitling and permitting of interim and permanent housing for the homeless is the responsibility of the Department of City Planning (DCP) and Department of Building and Safety (DBS).

Both departments have specialized units dedicated to assisting developers of interim and permanent housing navigate local and state requirements throughout the development process to ensure that their architectural and engineering plans comply with the law, building code, and livable and safe design standards.

3. The Bureau of Engineering (BOE) within the Department of Public Works (DPW) has a specialized unit that manages the design and construction of interim housing funded by the City of LA.

4. During construction, DBS is the principal department responsible for conducting inspections when called for to ensure that the building complies with the approved plans.

5. Additional departments listed below play a role in the permitting and inspection of interim and permanent housing for the homeless to ensure that it is safe, accessible, and livable:
a. Department of Water and Power (DWP): DWP is a municipal utility company responsible for ensuring development projects have water and power infrastructure to service the residents. b. LA Fire Department (LAFD): LAFD has a specialized unit that plan checks and inspects interim and permanent housing to ensure that developments comply with the fire code and can be safely occupied.
c. LA Housing Department (LAHD): LAHD’s Accessible Housing Program (AcHP) is a unit of engineering plan checkers and inspectors that ensure developments are accessible to people with disabilities and comply with fair housing laws.
d. DPW: Multiple bureaus within DPW ensure that construction in the public right of way and private property designed to improve the environmental impact and accessibility of the development are permitted and inspected.

6. During the entirety of the interim and permanent housing development process, the Mayor’s Office and CAO have staff that help coordinate intradepartmental responsibilities.

CA 607 - Pasadena CoC Affordable housing development, the CoC, and the Pasadena Housing Authority all operate out of the City of Pasadena Department of Housing which allows for efficient and productive collaboration in the development of interim and permanent housing resources. In the past six months, the City of Pasadena CoC celebrated the opening of The Salvation Army Hope Center, a new 65-unit PSH development for single adults exiting chronic homelessness. The City of Pasadena contributed $2 million of City Inclusionary and state Housing Successor funds to the project, in addition to project-based Housing Choice and VASH vouchers. The LA County Development Authority (LACDA) as well as the LA County 5th Supervisorial District also contributed funding to the project. Heritage Square South, a 69-unit PSH building for seniors, will open in Spring 2024. For this project the City of Pasadena contributed the land, $6.9 million of Housing Successor funds, as well as project-based Housing Choice Vouchers. The City of Pasadena has also recently supported a 6- unit permanent housing project for Transition Aged Youth with $1.3 million and $1 million of City Inclusionary and federal HOME dollars respectively. The City of Pasadena contributed $1.2 million of City Inclusionary and $200k of state Housing Successor funds to the purchase of a single-family home, which will be converted to a 20- unit transitional housing project for families. Additionally, $4.75 million of Local Housing Trust dollars have been committed to a 100-unit senior housing project, which includes 49 units of PSH. After a three-year hiatus during the pandemic, the CoC reopened its winter shelter at a new site this year primarily utilizing City of Pasadena General Funds. The LA County Board is providing funding for capital improvements.

Given the individual roles and responsibilities identified above, describe and explain how all participating jurisdictions are or will begin to coordinate these efforts to develop adequate interim and permanent housing options to address and end homelessness in the region.

Regional Coordination Narrative - Shelter, Interim, and PH Options The development of interim and permanent housing options relies on local policies and procedures that are not uniform across the six participating HHAP-5 partners. There are, however, several coordinated efforts across the LA region to increase housing and shelter options for individuals and families experiencing homelessness, which allow for collaboration and coordination between the partners. First, LAHSA is advancing its Master Leasing program throughout the county with collaboration from LA County, the state, and Medi-Cal managed care plans. The expansion supports the region-wide goal of broadening the spectrum of accessible and affordable permanent housing options in the region. The Master Leasing program is available for all CoCs in the region and should facilitate increased turnover of interim housing beds within the system by helping participants access stable, permanent housing solutions.

Coordination and collaboration throughout the county for the development of interim and permanent housing options often occurs at the funding level. For example, the County Board adopted a motion in November 2022 that dedicated $10 million in Homeless, Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Round 3 funding to support interim housing operations sited by Cities and Councils of Governments (CoGs).

The LACDA issues at least one NOFA annually to award funding to affordable housing developers anywhere in the county to assist the development and construction or renovation of multi-family rental housing for special needs populations, including persons experiencing homelessness. The annual LACDA NOFA is available for developers in any of the jurisdictions within LA County and is funded by LA County’s affordable housing program budget, which the county invests $100 million into every year. Since 1998, LACDA has awarded projects for affordable housing development in each of the 4 HHAP-5 city partner jurisdictions:
● Three projects in the City of Glendale were funded.
● Nine projects in the City of Long Beach were funded.
● 221 projects in the City of LA were funded.
● Twelve projects in the City of Pasadena were funded.

As funding allows, LA County also works closely with jurisdictions (outside of the LACDA NOFA) to fill funding gaps in the development of interim and permanent housing options in their local communities. For example, the City of Long Beach and LA County recently partnered together to convert a warehouse into congregate shelter. The City of Long Beach identified the site and brokered the sale, and the County committed funding up to half of the costs of acquisition and construction.

Project Homekey efforts across the County have also offered opportunities to collaborate and coordinate by adding interim housing beds and PSH units to the region’s supply of housing. The County partners with housing developers on Homekey, who acquire and rehabilitate the sites for County projects. LA County has Homekey projects across the Region including in the City of LA and the City of Long Beach, which requires close collaboration between the County and these respective cities to bring Homekey sites online.

The Homekey sites serve participants throughout the county with a focus on the SPA where they are located. All cities benefit from Project Homekey sites, especially those that are proximate to them. During Homekey Round 2, the County made available HHAP funds to support cities applying to the state for Homekey funding for permanent housing. During Homekey Round 3, the County invited cities, including those with CoCs, to apply jointly with the County for funding from the state, with the County contributing the capital and operating local matching funds.

Opportunities for HHAP-5 partners to engage regularly with one another on the development of interim and permanent housing solutions currently exist through the countywide Affordable Housing Coordinating Committee, Monthly PSH Funders Meeting, bi-weekly Housing Authorities and Partners Meeting, and Cities and Councils of Governments (CoGs) meetings. The HHAP-5 partners will also meet at least quarterly as a group to create a regular vehicle for deeper collaboration and coordination across the region. During those meetings, there will be additional opportunities for the partners to identify best practices, regional funding resources, and opportunities to collaborate when seeking funding for and developing interim and permanent housing.

Coordination of & Connection to Service Delivery
Participating Jurisdictions Roles & Responsibilities
Los Angeles County LA County has a unique role and setup of responsibilities among the six HHAP-5 partners as the geographic jurisdiction in which all the others are nested. LA County’s role and responsibilities coordinating and connection to services include the following: 1) Providing County Departments’ mainstream social services— e.g., physical and behavioral health care systems, public social services—safety net services, Child Protective and Adult Protective Services; and 2) LA County Board allocates a significant amount of county, state, and federal funding for homeless and housing services to each of the four CoCs and County Departments that provide services for each of the other HHAP-5 partners. In that role, LA County takes very seriously its responsibility to create rigorously transparent and inclusive public processes to decide how to coordinate and utilize County- administered homeless, housing, and support services resources across the entire LA County region. For example, the Board annually allocates over $450M in Measure H funding (from a 1⁄4 cent County sales tax dedicated to combating homelessness) to many Homeless Initiative lead County departments and
agencies, the four CoCs, and dozens of cities and Councils of Government (COGs), which in turn partner with hundreds of service providers across LA County. In this way, the LA County Government itself is a significant funder and supporter of homeless and housing efforts across all the other jurisdictions within the LA County Region. The County funds LAHSA to oversee and facilitate the CES in the LA CoC. CES was
established to connect people experiencing a housing crisis to resources and housing in the most efficient and equitable way and is the structure of ensuring homeless services and providers work in a consistent manner in the rehousing system.

Homelessness is a regional crisis, and LA County has always considered it a top priority to strengthen its collaboration with diverse stakeholders, including the 88 cities that fall within its boundaries, as well as Councils of Governments (COGs), which are Joint Powers Authorities that provide cooperative planning, coordination, and technical assistance on issues of mutual concern that cross jurisdictional lines. A key component of the LA County Homeless Initiative is the Local Jurisdiction Coordination & Supports Team. By fostering collaboration with local
jurisdictions and co-investing in proven regional and local solutions while integrating racial equity practices, this team expands and enhances programs and services that are
addressing homelessness countywide. This team administers and manages LA County’s Local Solutions Fund; enhances
regional communication, cooperation, and coordination including through quarterly regional convenings, issues resolution and advisory guidance on aligning, layering, and coordinating programs, and emergency management; collaborates with local jurisdictions on Pathway Home, the County’s Encampment
Resolution program funded by Measure H to reduce unsheltered homelessness; and collaborates with the City of LA as an integral partner during the planning and response phases of every Inside Safe operation, and remains in partnership with the City of LA and their Inside Safe participants throughout their housing stabilization process. As regional leaders addressing homelessness, LA County convenes daily case conferencing calls, or “air traffic control” meetings, with LA County DHS, LA County DMH, and LAHSA, to discuss participant cases and determine the most appropriate placement type based on the participants needs. This can be either for new housing referrals sent to an inappropriate funder or participants currently in an interim housing setting who require a higher or lower level of support. In its regional leadership role, on April 11, 2022, the LA County Chief Executive Office issued a report entitled, “A New Framework to End Homelessness in LA County,” (New
Framework) which included recommendations to improve and modify the County’s strategies to address homelessness. On May 3, 2022, the Board adopted the New Framework, which focuses on three key system partners: (1) Rehousing System, (2) Mainstream County Government Systems, and (3) Partnerships with Cities. For each partner, there are five categories of actions:

Coordinate, Prevent, Connect, House, and Stabilize. The Framework embraces emerging practices to advance racial equity across policymaking, planning, funding, and
implementation, and includes a commitment to ongoing
advancement of equity through implementation practices. The New Framework expands LA County’s purview to examine
prevention more intentionally and have a larger role in connecting clients to mainstream services by collaborating with County departments and other key partners. The New
Framework also focuses on creating a homeless response
system that focuses on flow-through by increasing an emphasis on permanent housing availability to move people through the system to permanent solutions more quickly.

CA 600 - LA City and County (LAHSA) In December of 1993, the Board and the LA Mayor and City Council created LAHSA as an independent Joint Powers
Authority. LAHSA is the lead agency in the LA CoC, which is the regional planning body that coordinates housing and services for homeless families and individuals in LA County. LAHSA
coordinates and manages over $800 million annually in federal, state, county, and city funds for programs that provide shelter, housing, and services to people experiencing homelessness.

LAHSA serves as the lead coordinating entity for the CoCs of LA, Glendale, Pasadena, and Long Beach (excluding Long Beach’s Adult system which operates independently.) In 2011, LA launched one of the earliest versions of the CES in the nation.

The goal was to bring together diverse resources provided by various funders to ensure that no matter where a household was experiencing homelessness in the city or county, they could be connected to services and housing. The CES Policy Council was originally sponsored by the LA Regional Homelessness Advisory Council, a regional entity comprised of key stakeholders from LA City and County, non-profit service providers, and people with lived expertise of homelessness, and, in 2019, was formally designated as the CES Policy Oversight Entity by the LA CoC through the adoption of the LA CoC Governance Charter. The Charter authorizes the CES Policy Council to support alignment of access, assessment, prioritization, and matching throughout the LA CES, which encompasses four CoCs. These policies seek to ensure that individuals experiencing homelessness are served consistently throughout the system, regardless of their characteristics or geography. In addition to fulfilling HUD requirements, the CES Policy Council was established based on local recognition that truly moving the needle on ending homelessness requires proactive alignment of principles across the entire region, which includes many jurisdictions (four CoCs and 88 cities) and funders (federal, state, local, and
philanthropic). As a coordinating body that is broader than any one organization or funder, the CES Policy Council serves to facilitate strategic alignment and to meaningfully engage homelessness services stakeholders to inform effective system strategy. The CES Policy Council does not make funding
decisions. In accordance with its role as a Joint Powers Authority, LAHSA aims to enhance the coordination and delivery of services to those at-risk of or experiencing homelessness.

LAHSA hosts outreach coordination meetings through each SPA and sub-SPA region. At minimum meetings are 1x per month however the average is every other week for SPA-wide. There are also monthly zone-specific case conferencing meetings for clients. There is more coordination that happens with MDTs separately for special projects such as weather/emergency response, encampment resolution, joint outreach at priority hotspots, etc. LAHSA meets with LA County twice a week for high level or urgent issues that impact the outreach system DHS as well. LAHSA hosts Active System Management meetings to support flowthrough from interim housing to housing navigation, and from housing navigation to RRH. Additionally, LAHSA leads lease up calls for new PSH buildings as they come online. All these meetings happen minimally once a month, however some may occur multiple times a week. These efforts are targeted at client level movement throughout the system and are designed to help providers focus on key activities that promote maximum housing placements. LAHSA also leads leadership meetings for CES leadership for the adult, family, and youth systems, as well as victim service providers. These meetings are focused on coordination amongst partners as the system continues to be refined and improved. LAHSA has identified key goals to address homelessness through strategic interventions. One critical focus is to enhance problem-solving interventions by increasing investment and utilization. This includes expanding the number of community partners trained in providing problem- solving interventions, with a specific emphasis on involving non- traditional partners like faith-based organizations. LAHSA aims to extend the use of problem-solving interventions across interim housing, engaging with entities within the justice system and at least five faith-based organizations in the upcoming fiscal year.

HHAP dollars have been pivotal in helping to expand problem solving across the jurisdiction, and LAHSA will continue this work across the region through HHAP 5, including partners connected to sister CoCs, City of LA, and LA County. Additionally, LAHSA will develop a comprehensive training series to deepen partners' understanding of problem-solving strategies. Another pivotal goal is the optimization of housing navigation staff deployment.

LAHSA is working to assign housing navigation staff to serve individuals in interim housing programs throughout the County.

This will ensure participants have a more efficient transition from interim to permanent housing. Monitoring housing navigation and RRH utilization monthly will be a key strategy to ensure swift and equitable service provision. LAHSA also plans to issue guidance and procedures for programs collaborating closely to increase housing placements. LAHSA will also continue to operationalize the use of housing navigation and RRH programs in a slot-based method aimed to drive efficacy in service provision, ultimately maximizing permanent housing outcomes. This work is being overseen for the entire Region, including all LAHSA-funded interim housing, as well as some programs funded directly by cities or local jurisdictions - with the goal of creating throughput for programs in each SPA. Since the launch of RRH
programming for adults in 2016, RRH-funded providers that provided access to this program for clients in their other programs (such as outreach, interim housing, and access centers), as well as to other providers in the area. However, in that there was no codified or standardized referral process, RRH programs operated differently, and access to all other
agencies/clients in the region was not guaranteed. Since 2022, LAHSA has been working with providers to create streamlined access to RRH. This includes creating service slots that can be used to manage program capacity and enrollment, and that can be matched to through a centralized referral function. This ensures this resource can serve programs and clients across the region. Interim housing programs funded by the City and County of LA are served through housing navigation staff, which then connect clients to open RRH slots in the SPA. Master Leasing is a regional approach in that LAHSA is seeking to bring units online in each of the SPAs across the county. These units are acquired where there is opportunity, however they are not used for one particular program, group, or city, but instead are viewed as a resource for a variety of target programs/populations across the SPA. While Master Leased units are funded through LA County, these units benefit programs throughout the SPAs, which can include encampment resolution programs of either the City or County of LA. Similarly, target programs in the SPAs can be prioritized across jurisdictions. Furthermore, LAHSA sets goals to optimize housing transfers and prioritization processes.

This involves implementing a standardized assessment process to identify households in need of transfer to another housing program. A prioritization process will be established to ensure housing stability. This will entail the ongoing tracking of data, including equity metrics, to guarantee proportional access. Equity goals for housing placements in the homeless service system will be developed, and the existing suite of equity tools will be expanded by implementing at least one new tool/framework for permanent housing placements. LAHSA also leads various
workgroups committed to bringing about more equity for various populations in the homeless services systems. Additionally, LAHSA participates in various workgroups led by the County’s Anti-Racism, Diversity, and Inclusion Initiative. These strategic initiatives underscore LAHSA's commitment to addressing homelessness comprehensively and promoting equitable and sustainable solutions. Lastly, to maintain a fully staffed and effective system of care, LAHSA has created avenues for providers to receive workforce and organizational capacity building support. LAHSA’s Capacity Building team aids providers in sourcing skilled and qualified candidates for critical vacancies within the rehousing system. Through the organization of regional job fairs and one on one recruitment support, LAHSA works to customize its engagement of prospective workers to the unique needs of the provider and style of care needed within homeless services programs. LAHSA is also leading workforce development with partners such as Careers for a Cause, Santa Monica City College, the University of Southern California, and others to create a pipeline of workers – many with lived experience of homelessness – into the sector.

CA 612 - Glendale CoC The City of Glendale Community Services & Parks Dept/Homeless Services Sections serves as the lead agency for the City of Glendale CoC. The City of Glendale CoC collaborates with diverse groups such as organizations with racial justice focus, mainstream health care providers, local hospitals, domestic violence, veterans and youth service providers, faith- based organizations, funders, advocates, public housing agencies, school district, local law enforcement, and other members that play a critical role in helping prevent and end homelessness. The City of Glendale CoC has designated a Board of Directors, CoC Committee, and CES Sub-Committees who help with the strategic planning and implementation of not only HHAP funds, but State and Federal to maximize program funds that align with the State and Federal Strategic plan to end and prevent homelessness. The City of Glendale CoC also participates in cross collaborative meetings with other CoC’s and cities regarding homeless system planning and delivery, such as the San Fernando Valley COG, Southern California CoC Alliance and LA Homeless Management Information System (HMIS)
Collaborative, which allows the LA, Glendale, Long Beach, and Pasadena CoC’s to share HMIS data across CoCs. The City of Glendale CoC is also working closely with LAHSA on a Regional CES Council to develop Regional CES Policies and Procedures.

This regional collaboration strengthens the City of Glendale CoC and helps develop prioritization and matching criteria that is in compliance with Regional CES Systems. The City of Glendale CoC would like to continue developing a sophisticated system of programs that work in tandem to help reduce homelessness and prevent exits to homelessness by increasing access to
countywide resources and partnership opportunities including partnerships with Managed Care Plans.

CA 606 - Long Beach CoC & City of
Long Beach
The administrative entity for the City of Long Beach CoC is the City of Long Beach Department of Health and Human Services.

The Long Beach CES serves the entire 52-square mile
jurisdiction of the City/CoC of Long Beach. Partnerships are active with the LA, Pasadena, & Glendale CoCs & the County CEO office of LA to ensure coverage & coordination as people move throughout the County of LA over the multiple CoCs within the county. In addition to the planning and coordination efforts of the City of Long Beach CoC and CES, the City of Long Beach and City of Long Beach CoC also partner to further engage community members and stakeholders, formally, through the Homeless Services Advisory Committee. The City of Long Beach CoC encourages public participation and heavily relies on communication and coordination with the Homeless Services Advisory Committee (HSAC), which serves to operate as a liaison between each of Long Beach’s council districts and the Homeless Services Bureau. The HSAC committee is tasked with relaying information to their elected representatives and regularly reporting on the City of Long Beach CoC’s
performance/outcomes. This creates a feedback loop directly between the City of Long Beach CoC, City of Long Beach
leadership, and Long Beach constituents. Staff further engage with faith-based collaboratives, business improvement districts, business associations, neighborhood associations, legislative entities, regional planning efforts including Southern California CoC Leaders Collaborative, West Coast Mayor’s Alliance, UFA Collaborative, and the California Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency to incorporate best practice models. The City of Long Beach CoC and interdepartmental City staff collaboratively prepare the City’s Consolidated Plan (CP) & Annual Action Plans, which includes planning and coordination for the development, implementation, distribution, operation, and management of annual allocation of CDBG, HOME and ESG
funds. For the FY 2023-2027 Consolidated Plan, the City of Long Beach solicited community input via community meetings, the City of Long Beach CoC general membership, HSAC meetings, focus groups with people with lived experience and council district forums. The City of Long Beach CoC provides data for the Consolidated Plan including Annual Point-in-Time Homeless Count data, Housing Inventory Count utilization, HMIS coverage, system performance (including project level for funded programs under ESG), and recommendations for improved performance.

These planning and coordination efforts support the City of Long Beach and City of Long Beach CoC to successfully
conceptualize, design, implement, and arrange for services for persons experiencing, or at-risk of homelessness within Long Beach. Further coordination and collaboration efforts are undertaken to ensure seamless delivery of services, including cross-system collaboration to address the needs of at-risk and homeless youth via the Youth Services Network (YSN); a
collaborative of stakeholders dedicated to the well-being of youth in LB through partnership, advocacy and resource sharing.

Strategies for at-risk & youth experiencing homelessness include identifying gaps in services, wraparound supports, employment, educational supports, provision of Transitional Housing, family strengthening strategies and reunification services. Long Beach Unified School District LEA homeless liaisons regularly attend CoC meetings & are represented on the CoC Board. LEA
liaisons are active participants in identifying ways to strengthen cross-system supports for homeless students and have specific services and programs for homeless students within the school district. The City of Long Beach CoC collaborates with the Long Beach Unified School District (LBUSD) and early childhood education (ECE) providers to coordinate educational and support services for youth and children who are experiencing
homelessness. LBUSD and ECE providers are active
participants in the City of Long Beach CoC meetings, including a monthly collaborative at the Villages at Cabrillo, the Youth Services Network, the CoC General Membership and CoC Board meetings and sub committees. LBUSD’s Bethune Transitional Center provides health/mental health screenings, social development activities, & supports like school supplies, uniforms & transportation. LBUSD & ECE train City of Long Beach CoC partners in an effort to increase awareness of the educational resources available to families and youth who are homeless. City of Long Beach CoC staff provide school liaisons training on CE process. In addition to relationships with the public school system the CoC has formal relationships and engagement with the local community college and university. The City of Long Beach CoC, additionally, has formal & informal partnerships with Survivor Service Providers (SPs). The City of Long Beach CoC engages providers within its annual review of CE policies & written standards for programs. Policies are aligned with VAWA
requirements to ensure both safety & choice. Policies & procedures include: screening & access to services within DV & general services, documentation requirements,
emergency/safety transfers & how SP service recipients can access permanent housing resources through Long Beach CE.

City of Long Beach CoC staff also provide training to regional SPAs on CoC system services & collaboratively discuss how to enhance access to & through the system for survivors. City of Long Beach CoC staff also ensure alignment to county policies & that we receive input from County, LAHSA, and DV coordinators - most specifically with Rainbow Services, the SPA 8 lead for domestic violence (DV) services and service coordination. City of Long Beach CoC protocols prioritize safety & trauma-informed, victim-centered services. CoC staff are trained to link people with DV services and all programs serving survivors, regardless of funding source, adhere to Housing First, including voluntary services & recognizing survivors’ trauma from being controlled by their abusers. The City of Long Beach CoC has a long history of coordinating with the local PHA which includes the adoption of a Homeless Preference within its Administrative Plan, set-aside Housing Choice vouchers and utilization of the CE for all homeless project-based housing projects. Measure H and
California state funding supports housing navigation to assist clients in interim housing and rapid re-housing programs to quickly exit into permanent housing. Housing navigation prioritizes households with severe needs to successfully secure housing. The City of Long Beach is partnering with the
Department of Health Services to provide intensive case management services (ICMS) to households who are matched to Housing Choice Vouchers and Project Based Vouchers to
support the housing navigation process & ensure housing retention.

City of Los Angeles The City of LA’s Mayor’s Office of Community Safety (MOCS) connects relevant City departments, LAHSA, and other
governmental agencies to deploy City of LA resources to address homelessness, including City-funded outreach teams such as CARE and CARE+ teams. The City of LA has several
supplemental contracts for outreach services directly between the City and service providers, which are coordinated variously by City departments and the Council Offices. The Office of the CAO assists City of LA Council Districts by coordinating operations to address recreational vehicle (RV) encampments.

The CAO’s Regional Outreach Coordinators play a pivotal role in organizing the various City Departments involved to successfully execute an RV operation. During a RV operation a variety of services are offered including interim housing options and referral to needed services through LAHSA.

CA 607 - Pasadena CoC The City of Pasadena Department of Housing serves as the lead agency for the City of Pasadena CoC. The City of Pasadena CoC collaborates with diverse groups such as organizations with racial justice focus, mainstream health care providers, local hospitals, domestic violence, veterans and youth service providers, faith-based organizations, funders, advocates, public housing agencies, school district, local law enforcement, and other members that play a critical role in helping prevent and end homelessness. The City of Pasadena CoC has a designated Board of Directors and several committees including the Faith Community Committee, Healthcare Committee and the Street Outreach Collaborative which help with the strategic planning and implementation of homeless services across the City of Pasadena CoC. The City of Pasadena CoC also participates in cross collaborative meetings with other CoCs and cities regarding homeless system planning and delivery, such as the San Gabriel Valley COG, San Gabriel Valley Consortium on Homelessness, the Southern California CoC Alliance and the LA HMIS Collaborative, which allows the LA, Glendale, Long Beach, and Pasadena CoCs to share HMIS data across Continuums.

Along with the three other CoCs in the region, the City of Pasadena CoC is a member of the Greater LA Coordinated Entry System and has a seat on the LA CES Policy Council, the CES’ governing body which develops regional CES Policies and Procedures.

Given the individual roles and responsibilities identified above, describe how all participating jurisdictions are or will begin to coordinate to provide the full array of services, shelter, and permanent housing solutions to people experiencing and at-risk of experiencing homelessness in the region.

Regional Coordination Narrative - Coordination & Connection to Service Delivery The LA County CES is the backbone of regional collaboration and coordination for all six participating HHAP-5 partners. The regional CES equitably and efficiently distributes available housing and supportive services to people experiencing homelessness across all of LA. The four CoCs in the LA Region participate in the CES. LAHSA is the CES lead agency. Since 2014, LA’s CES has facilitated services and housing across all eight SPAs in the county. LAHSA, collaborating CoCs, and cities use standardized regional approaches to assess people’s needs, to ensure people experiencing homelessness access services, and to prioritize people for finite resources, supportive services, and housing.

LAHSA convenes a monthly CES Policy Council with regional representation of service providers and agencies to refine CES policies and recommend system improvements. All four CoCs participate in the CES Policy Council. LAHSA also convenes Regional System Implementation meetings to regularly connect with provider management and front-line staff. The Regional System Implementation meetings enable the region as a whole to identify gaps and bottlenecks in service delivery.

Along with deep and regular collaboration and coordination in CES across the county, the partners in HHAP-5 are working together to strengthen prevention and diversion services for LA county residents.

LAHSA and LA County are working to create clear referral pathways to prevention services throughout the region with the support of City of Glendale CoC, City of Long Beach CoC, the City of LA, and City of Pasadena CoC (and LA County funding streams). All six HHAP-5 partners are leveraging their resources to implement problem-solving, which can reduce homelessness, especially first-time homelessness.

Additionally, in July 2023, the County launched the Prevention and Promotion Systems Governing Committee (PPSGC) with the goal of establishing a strong prevention infrastructure that employs a well- coordinated model to support individuals and families, holistically and equitably. The PPSGC also called for a system of care that works upstream and a transparent process for public input and accountability. In February and March, the PPSGC hosted a series of listening sessions targeting diverse stakeholders, sectors and jurisdictions to increase their awareness on the County prevention strategies, obtain their insight on pressing issues and strategies that need to be implemented, and mobilize them to take part in preventing homelessness.

For subpopulations disproportionately represented in the overall homeless system of care, efforts across the jurisdictions are underway to address racial, ethnic, and gender inequities. LA County plans to conduct a high-level analysis of systemwide performance outcomes to highlight key areas for improvement and determine where the entire region needs to strengthen services for groups disproportionately impacted by homelessness. LA County has established a new framework for embedding equity in Homeless Initiative funded programs, services, and housing, which will advance racial equity across service delivery in the county. This framework has supported many efforts led by LAHSA’s Equity department, like the continual advancement of the CES Triage Tool Research and Refinement (CESTTRR) which has corrected some bias by implementing and evaluating a more equitable assessment tool and process. LAHSA and LA County intend to work closely with the Black and Latinx/e Homeless Working Groups to identify ways that all six HHAP-5 partners can reduce inequities in LA’s homeless system of care. At the local level, each of the jurisdictions has identified ways in which they will focus their resources to address specific inequities in their local systems.

LA County leads efforts to maximize access to mainstream benefits. All six participating HHAP-5 partners collaborate in some way with LA County to ensure individuals experiencing homelessness receive wrap- around services from federal and state mainstream benefits programs, like CalWorks, CalFresh, In-Home Supportive Services, and Medi-Cal. The County’s Department of Public Social Services (LA County DPSS) is the largest provider of mainstream benefits across the Region, serving thousands of people experiencing homelessness monthly. LA County DPSS offices and out-stationed settings help people experiencing homelessness access and enroll in benefits.

As a large county with multiple CoCs and hundreds of service provider organizations, there are ample opportunities already in place for collaboration and coordination. In addition to CES, there are regular convenings that LAHSA hosts for the lead agencies of each of the eight SPAs which HHAP-5 partners often participate in. Many, if not all HHAP-5 partners, attend COG meetings, including COG Homeless Taskforce Meetings and COG Homeless Committee Meetings. The six HHAP-5 partners are welcome and often attend the Regional System Implementation meetings that cover CES for youth, families, single adults, etc. Additional meetings include the LAHSA Homeless and Higher Education Workgroup, the Homeless Initiative Quarterly Regional Convenings, Augmented Winter Shelter Meetings when bad weather is anticipated, and Pathway Home Service Connection Events in which County departments and other agencies provide a one-stop-shop for people to access essential programs and services they may need or want, including physical and mental health care, substance use disorder treatment, benefits enrollment, and more at Pathway Home and Inside Safe interim housing sites. All HHAP partners have committed to enhancing service delivery coordination through these existing networks of communication that promote regional collaboration.

The HHAP-5 partners also committed to establish a regular meeting between just the HHAP partners to provide a forum for them to implement the Regional Action Plan and coordinate more effectively throughout the region. The multi-purpose meeting will be facilitated by LA County and used to offer opportunities for peer-sharing, to coordinate around the common HHAP-5 goals, including service delivery, and to regularly revisit HHAP-5 Key Actions. The participating partners will regularly be able to collaborate around methods for measuring success as well as identify gaps and needs in the region as they arise.

Is place-based encampment resolution occuring within the region? Yes
The CoC must describe and provide evidence of collaboration with the cities or counties providing encampment resolution services that addresses how people served through encampment resolution have or will be prioritized for permanent housing within the Coordinated Entry System.

Narrative for place-based encampment resolution
Leveraging powers under the state of emergency on homelessness declared by the Board of Supervisors in January 2023, LA County has launched Pathway Home, a major expansion of its ongoing efforts to resolve encampments countywide, including recreational vehicles, in partnership with local jurisdictions and unincorporated communities. With Pathway Home, LA County hopes to reduce unsheltered homelessness in specific communities by helping people living on the streets come indoors, receive supportive services they need to achieve housing stability, and ultimately move into permanent housing.

Pathway Home draws on lessons from previous multi-jurisdictional encampment resolution efforts, such as Project Roomkey during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the City of LA’s Inside Safe Initiative.

LA County is mobilizing and coordinating an all-hands-on-deck approach that offers people a diverse suite of wraparound services to end their homelessness. Each operation will be different, reflecting the capacity and resources of various partners, as well as the unique needs and challenges of the people living in each encampment.

With Pathway Home, LA County will continue to work with LAHSA, local service providers, and other jurisdictional partners to expand, enhance, and expedite:
● The number of specialized outreach teams from the LA County Departments of Mental Health, Health Services, Public Health, and other agencies – as well as from our trusted partners and community organizations – to work intensively with people with a variety of physical and behavioral health needs. ● A diverse array of interim housing at non-congregate hotels and available shelters that people can move into immediately while being matched to rental subsidies, benefits, and other assistance to secure permanent housing. The County will also continue efforts to expand the number of permanent housing units, such as acquiring and refurbishing motels and hotels under Homekey. ● Supportive services that clients both want and need at interim and permanent housing sites, which can include physical and behavioral health care, substance use disorder treatment, and efforts to ensure they are receiving their entitled benefits for health care and subsidized housing.

Under Pathway Home, LA County is using local Measure H funding to increase the permanent housing pathways available to participants, helping them move from interim to permanent housing.

Examples of specific efforts from HHAP-5 jurisdictional providers include:
● The City of Long Beach has been part of the state Encampment Resolution Funding (ERF) Program through both rounds and is a recipient of HUD CoC Supplemental to Address Unsheltered and Rural Homelessness (Special NOFO) for unsheltered homelessness. They have targeted specific encampments, with their efforts a collaboration between the City of Long Beach, LA County, and the State since their encampments run through joint/border areas, such as the LA River, LA Metro, and other state properties. ● The City of LA conducts district by district encampment resolution, Through the CAO’s office, the City of LA has established a citywide approach that includes an outreach group that has developed effective, well- thought-out approach to vehicle/RV encampments. The City of LA has also collaborated with CalTrans to address encampments on state property located in the City of LA. ● Within the City of Pasadena CoC, the Pasadena Public Health Department’s PORT (Pasadena Outreach Response Team) staff and the CoC’s lead agency, Union Station Homeless Services, collaborate with CalTrans on resolution of encampments on freeway embankments. Encampment participants receive housing navigation services and are prioritized through existing Coordinated Entry System prioritization criteria.

Health Department, the Superior Court
of California (Court), local law

Program participants. The Program’s
focus is to delay or avoid criminal
prosecution proceedings for people
experiencing homelessness (PEH)
with resolvable outstanding
misdemeanor criminal warrants,
provided that the individuals make
progress towards attaining housing
solutions. For those who attain their
housing goals, charges may be
altogether dropped, depending on the
individual’s unique situation. This
Program will encourage PEH with a
criminal background to accept
services with a goal to transition to
permanent housing.

Outstanding warrants impede a
defendant’s eligibility to access social
services and find permanent housing

as they work toward self-sufficiency.

countywide among all
CoCs, along with other
programs including the
Housing Support
Program (HSP) and
Homeless Assistance
(HA) program, which are
integral to the County's
efforts to provide housing
stability to families
experiencing
homelessness. HSP
offers intensive case
management, housing
navigation, rental
assistance, and ongoing
support to secure and
maintain permanent
housing. HA provides
temporary housing
assistance, including
payments for shelter and
transitional housing.

DPSS, as the largest
provider of mainstream
safety net benefits and
services across the
County, is monthly
serving hundreds of
thousands of families
and individuals
experiencing
homelessness or at-risk
of homelessness,
including those
connected to HHAP-
funded programming,
readily providing access
and enrollment through
their dozens of publicly
accessible district offices
and other out-stationed
settings. Ther are
several referral pathways
to ensure that
CalWORKs families
experiencing
homelessness or at-risk
of homelessness are
connected to the
appropriate resources.

This includes, but is not
limited to:
● Staff Co-Location:

DPSS staff are co-
located within the family
Coordinated Entry
System. DPSS staff co-
location helps to support
homeless service
providers in connecting
eligible CalWORKs
families to the
appropriate resources
and services which can
include HSP and HA.
● 211 County Access
Line: Families
experiencing or at risk of
homelessness who are
in need of services after
hours have the ability to
contact 211, the
County’s centralized 24/7
access and referral line
to County services and
resources including
DPSS CalWORKs.
● Street Outreach:

Service providers who
conduct street outreach
engage with unsheltered
people experiencing
homelessness to provide
immediate support and
make referrals to
mainstream benefits
including CalWORKs
programming, when
eligible. In order to
provide coordinated
support for people
experiencing
homelessness across
the CoCs, service
providers utilize HMIS to
track the referrals made
and attained. In
partnership with LAHSA,
the County has improved
best practices for client
referrals by offering
service provider trainings
and standardizing
referral processes across
County mainstream
benefits.

CalFresh LA County CEO-HI will
continue to work closely
with LA County DPSS to
ensure individuals
experiencing
homelessness have
access to CalFresh (See

Program (HDAP) is
another DHS program
that works in
coordination with CBEST
to serve disabled
individuals experiencing
homelessness apply for
disability benefit
programs, while also
providing housing
supports. Housing-
related financial
assistance and
wraparound supportive
services provided by
HDAP include but are
not limited to interim
shelter assistance, rental
assistance, housing
navigation, case
management, security
deposits, utility
payments, moving costs,
legal services, and credit
repair. HDAP follows a
Housing First model and
uses evidence-based
housing interventions,
including Rapid
Rehousing and
Permanent Supportive
Housing.

LA County DPSS has
made improvements to
their referral process for
GR participants which
includes an automated
and streamlined pathway
for CBEST/HDAP
assessments and in
which frontline staff are
readily able to identify
and refer eligible
participants. All other
non-GR participant
referrals are directly sent
to DHS. Furthermore,
referrals are also
streamlined through the
Coordinated Entry
System (CES), where
frontline staff are trained
to identify and refer
eligible participants.

In an effort to increase
awareness of
mainstream services and
to strengthen County-
provider partnerships, LA
County CEO-HI released
“A Guide to Accessing
Mainstream Services” in
2023 which serves as a
resource for homeless
service providers on how
to access and navigate
available County
mainstream services,
including CBEST and
SSI/SSP for people
experiencing
homelessness.

LA County CEO-HI also
hosted a series of
trainings with homeless
services providers this
year to provide
information on accessing
and navigating
mainstream services,
including CBEST and
HDAP. These training
focused on learning how
to determine if
participants are currently
receiving mainstream
services, best practices
for client referrals, how to
bring services onsite,
and who to contact for
additional information.

In-home supportive
services
LA County CEO-HI will
continue to work closely
with LA County DPSS to
ensure individuals
experiencing
homelessness have
access to IHSS. (See

for people experiencing
homelessness with
activities of daily living
(ADL) needs through the
following strategies to
assess for IHSS needs
and provide supports
until IHSS benefits can
be secured:

Enhanced Care
Assessment Teams -
Four teams of skilled
assessors, including
licensed clinicians, to
assess the ADL needs of
people experiencing
homelessness and refer
them to appropriate
services.

Caregiving Services in
Interim Housing -
Provide short to medium-
term personal caregiving
services to people
experiencing
homelessness in interim
housing and assist
clients with accessing
ongoing personal
caregiving services
including CalAIM
Personal Care and
Homemaker Services
Community Supports
and In Home Supportive

to ensure the California
Department of Social

Safe program is
integrated into the
broader LA County
homeless services
system. LA County’s
Home Safe program
provides older and/or
dependent adults at risk
of or experiencing
homelessness and linked
to APS with a range of
housing services,
including case
management, rental
payments, and rental
arrears so they can
maintain their current
housing, or find new
housing to avoid entering
the homeless emergency
shelter system. It also
connects those in the
homeless system of care
to APS for access and
enrollment as needed.

This close partnership
allows LA County CEO-
HI to align resources
wherever possible to
create complementary
investments across the
homeless rehousing
system.

collaborated with the

(DCFS) extensively
around the following: 1)
helping to reunify
families in situations
where homelessness is
the only issue preventing
the reunification 2)
preventing discharges

LAHSA, City of LA, City

Through this work and
with the CEO-HI's
guidance, LA County
DCFS has formed the
Supportive Housing
Division to more
effectively address
housing insecurity issues
for families and youth by
streamlining the housing
services process.

Some examples of
DCFS programs that the
County is leveraging to
support families in
situations where
homelessness is the only
issue preventing the
reunification include, but
is not limited to the below
programs:
● The Family
Reunification Housing
Subsidy program
provides rapid re-
housing and case
management services to
families in the child
welfare system where
the parents’
homelessness is the sole
barrier to the return of
the children.
● The Bringing Families
Home (BFH) program,
provides rapid-rehousing
and case management
services to families in the
child welfare system who
are currently
experiencing
homelessness. The
program provides direct
financial assistance and
supportive services to
families in the Family
Maintenance Program
within LA County DCFS
and aims to assist
families to locate housing
and prevent children
from entering or re-
entering into foster care.

LA County DCFS also
works to help prevent
discharges into
homelessness for
transitional aged youth
including, but not limited
to the following
programs:
● The Transitional
Housing Program-Plus is
a transitional housing
program for former foster
TAY youth that provides
safe independent living
housing and support
services like the
development of life skills
needed to live
independently to support
the diversion of youth
discharging into
homelessness.
● LA County CEO-HI
also funds case
management and
housing navigation
services for TAY
participating in the
Supervised Independent
Living Program (SILP).

SILP is a flexible foster
care placement that
offers the opportunity for
highly independent living
experiences designed to
bridge the gap between
foster care and
independent adulthood.

The aforementioned
programs and services
help to reduce the inflow
of children and families
involved in the child
welfare system
experiencing or at risk of
homelessness into the
rehousing system by
providing resources
connected to housing
stability. These
programs are available
countywide and utilized
across all CoCs.

Child care The City of Long Beach
will use MAC, MSC,
Outreach, and/or

 All of the following groups were invited and encouraged to engage in the public stakeholder process:

Stakeholder engagement
Stakeholders Description of how Stakeholders were invited and encouraged to engage in the public
stakeholder process
People with lived experience of homelessness Together the HHAP-5 partners agreed to leverage the LA County Chief Executive Office - Homeless
Initiative (CEO-HI) annual stakeholder engagement
process, which covers the entire region, including
all five other HHAP-5 partners, as the primary
opportunity to illicit feedback, as outlined below.

The other five HHAP-5 Applicants also held
supplemental jurisdiction-focused listening
sessions, as necessary.

LA County CEO-HI held a series of community
listening sessions to strengthen strategies for
addressing and preventing homelessness and to
inform LA County’s annual funding
recommendations for homeless services and
housing for fiscal year 2024-2025, inclusive of
HHAP funding and therefore the HHAP-5 funding
application process. During these listening
sessions, LA County solicited feedback from
diverse stakeholders and partners to ensure our
updated strategies and budget are responsive to
the unique needs and priorities of communities
countywide. Last year, the goal was to understand
LA County Chief Executive Office, Homeless
Initiative (CEO-HI) funding in relation to other
homeless and housing funding sources and to
continue to work together so that LA County could
spend the most restrictive funds first braided with
more nimble resources to improve the rehousing
system.

People with lived experience were invited by LA
County CEO-HI liaisons that know about people
with lived experience advisory boards via Los
Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) to
attend listening sessions for people with lived
experience of homelessness on October 6, 2023,
October 12, 2023 (for Youth), October 16, 2023,
and February 29, 2024. Additionally, LA County
invited these stakeholders through multiple avenues
including via emails, social media, direct outreach
by LA County liaisons, and in existing meeting
spaces.

During these listening sessions, LA County
provided attendees with a summary of feedback
received the prior year and how the County
responded, followed by breakout sessions intended
to solicit feedback from a diverse group of
stakeholders to ensure funding strategies and
budgets are responsive to the unique needs and
priorities of communities countywide.

LA County also recently held four specific
Prevention & Promotion Systems Governing
Committee (PPSGC) Listening Sessions aimed to
accomplish the following three goals:

1. Brief the community on LA County’s current and
future efforts to prevent homelessness.

2. Obtain community’s insight on potential
population-level outcomes and immediate/short-
term/mid-term issues that should be addressed and
strategies that can be implemented via cross-
departmental, jurisdictional and sectoral
collaboration and co-investments (financial and in-
kind).

3. Engage and mobilize diverse stakeholders for
advocacy and strategy implementation.

One of the four listening sessions that occurred on
February 29, 2024, was specifically related to the
engagement of people with lived experience. This
session aimed to obtain knowledge and expertise of
people with lived experience to ensure that
programs and policies effectively meet the needs of
the targeted population, identify unintended
negative consequences, and generate integrative
solutions.

Youth with lived experience of homelessness In addition to the sessions listed above, there was a specific listening session for youth with lived
experience on October 12, 2023. Youth with lived

3. Where applicable, provide the dollar amount that will be designated under the Youth Set-Aside from the selected eligible use categories. Reminder: the youth set-aside must total at least 10% of all monies received.

4. Provide a brief description of activities HHAP-5 funds will support in each selected eligible use category.

5. Provide an explanation of how the activities therein align with the state's HHAP-5 priorities to:
 sustain existing investments towards long-term housing stability and supportive services and
 prioritize permanent housing solutions.

6. Indicate whether the budget proposes to support ANY new interim housing solutions outside of the youth set-aside.

7. Indicate whether the budget proposes to support new interim housing solutions for youth in excess of 10% of the total HHAP-5 Dollars budgeted
o If the Administrative Entity answers “yes” to either 6 or 7, they will be asked to demonstrate dedicated, sufficient resources from other funding sources for long-term housing stability and permanent housing solutions. This entails summarizing total available dollars for preventing and ending homelessness in the region, including the percentage of these resources dedicated to permanent and interim housing solutions, providing the status of five policy actions for each eligible applicant in the region, and demonstrating the need for additional shelter.

Guidance:

Each Administrative Entity must submit a single Funding Plan that accounts for the entire HHAP-5 Allocation(s) which the Administrative Entity will be responsible for administering. This includes:
 100 percent of the HHAP-5 Base allocation(s);
 100 percent of the HHAP-5 Planning allocation(s); and  100 percent of the Initial Supplemental Funding allocation(s).

The youth set-aside must total at least 10% of all monies received.

Administrative costs may not exceed 7% of all monies received.

Up to 1% of all monies received may be budgeted for costs related to the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). Related costs include HMIS licenses, training, system operating costs, and costs associated with carrying out related activities. Upon agreement between the grantee and the Homeless Management Information System lead entity, the grantee shall transfer the authorized amount of funds directly to the HMIS lead entity.

To add another funding plan for an additional Administrative Entity, click "Add Funding Plan" near the bottom of the page.

Combined NCC and OTO funding will allow the ENP program to provide an additional 7,113 meals for C2, support hourly wages for the C2 meal staff, and obtain general supplies for the program operations.

NCC and OTO funding was not appropriated as part of the FY 2024-2025 budget process; therefore, staff is requesting appropriation of the additional funds. 208 of 379

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council authorize acceptance of $58,400 in NCC and OTO funding from Los Angeles County AD for FY 2024-2025 and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 of the Subaward ENP242505 period July 2024 – June 2025 to implement the funding; and appropriate those funds to the C2 Home Delivered Meals Program.

ANALYSIS
CSP has been providing meal service to seniors 60 years of age and older in the greater Glendale area since 1979 with Older Americans Act grant funding administered by Los Angeles County AD. The ENP provides an important opportunity for social contact and is the only meal many seniors receive in a day.

The ENP program is operated through the Senior Services Unit, which provides comprehensive, long-term services that include Congregate Meal (C-1), Home Delivered Meals (C-2), Emergency Meals, Telephone Reassurance and Supportive Services. The goal of these services is to assist the seniors in our community to maintain their independence and live in their own homes.

The City’s ENP Congregate Meals program operates two congregate meal sites serving lunch seven days per week at the Adult Recreation Center and five days per week at Sparr Heights Community Center. An average of 4,000 meals per month are served in the program to more than 500 unduplicated seniors annually.

The ENP Home Delivered Meals program is for homebound seniors requiring food delivery assistance for physical and/or medical reasons and is substantiated by a doctor’s order before beginning program services. Program services include a weekly delivery of seven frozen meals that include bread, fruit, milk, and dessert. The Emergency Meals program is part of the Home Delivered Meals program and provides three days’ worth of shelf-stable meals to clients enrolled in the program per fiscal year. The Telephone Reassurance program is also a part of the Home Delivered Meals program and ensures that seniors who are shut-in receive a weekly well-being call.

The City contracts with TRIO Community Meals, LLC to provide congregate and home- delivered meal catering services for the ENP program. The contract period is from December 1, 2022, through November 30, 2026. The cost-per-meal rate is as follows:
•Congregate Meals $4.56 per meal
•Home Delivered Meals $4.75 per meal
In addition, the City has a purchase order with Revolution Foods to provide Emergency Meals to Home Delivered Meals program clients for three days’ worth of shelf stable meals at a unit rate of $6.85 per meal.

CSP was awarded an ENP grant award from LA County AD for baseline funding in FY 2024-25 through a noncompetitive process whereby the City entered into a subaward 209 of 379

4f3
25-87813
5 9
8 6
agreement for a one-year term, commencing July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, with three additional options to renew annually for an anticipated total subaward term of four years. The subaward is currently in Year One (2024-2025) of the anticipated total four- year term. In September 2024, additional Modernizing Older Californians Act (MOCA) funding was awarded in the amount of $72,600 for C1 and C2 and implemented pursuant to Amendment No. 1.

Amendment No. 2 will implement $39,900 in additional baseline Net County Cost (NCC) funding and $18,500 in One-Time-Only (OTO) grant funding for ENP C2-Home Delivered Meals Program. NCC and OTO funding is a reimbursable grant and requires a 12% cash match. The LA County AD reimbursement rate for ENP NCC and OTO funding for meal service delivery for FY 2024-2025 is as follows:

Meal Type Funding Source Reimbursement Rate Per Meal
Home Delivered Meals NCC $8.21
Home Delivered Meals OTO $8.21
Combined NCC and OTO funding will enable the City to provide an additional 7,113 meals for C2 through June 30, 2025.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
The ENP operates as part of the Senior Services Unit located at the Adult Recreation Center and has an additional meal site at Sparr Heights Community Center. Program services are advertised quarterly in the CSP Leisure Guide, in the CSP newsletter, in CSP social media and website, and outreach is conducted with other community agencies to ensure the public is aware of the available services.

FISCAL IMPACT
The NCC and OTO combined grant award of $58,400 was not included as part of the FY 24-25 budget. Therefore, staff is requesting appropriation of $39,900 in C2 NCC funding and $18,500 in C2 OTO funding from grant revenue as outlined below:

ALTERNATIVES TO STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Alternative 1: Do not approve acceptance and appropriation of $58,400 in ENP NCC and OTO funding from Los Angeles County AD for the FY 2024-2025 ENP; which will result in fewer meals available to seniors.

CITY OF GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

AGENDA ITEM
Report: Declaration of Certain City-owned properties as “Exempt Surplus” from the Surplus Land Act (“SLA”) – revised resolution

1. Resolution finding and declaring certain City-owned properties are exempt from the Surplus Land Act

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Consent Calendar
Approved for April 15, 2025 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On March 4, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25-31 making findings and declaring ten City-owned properties exempt from the Surplus Land Act (SLA) using the “Small Surplus Land Parcel” exemption. Staff submitted the Resolution to the State Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) for review and HCD noted that one assessor parcel number (APN) for Downtown Lot 7 (300 E. Broadway) was misidentified. The HCD requests the resolution be readopted with the corrected APN and resubmitted. The HCD has indicated they concur with the City’s exemption findings, however issuing an approval is contingent upon submitting the revised resolution with the corrected APN for Lot 7.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the revised resolution declaring certain City-owned properties exempt from the Surplus Land Act and authorize submission to HCD for review and approval.

ANALYSIS
On March 4, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25-31 making findings and declaring the following ten City-owned properties exempt from the Surplus Land Act (SLA) using the “Small Surplus Land Parcel” exemption for properties less than one-half acre (21,780 SF):

10) 805 Fairmont** - 5635-019-902 18,956
*Note – This APN was misidentified as -913 instead of -911. **Note- Site is an irregular shaped remnant from the Fairmont Avenue Overpass project and is developed with a 7,113 SF building.

During HCD’s review of Resolution No. 25-31 they noted that the Lot 7 APN referenced above, was misidentified (one digit was off). HCD requests the resolution be readopted with the corrected APN so they have a complete and correct record of the City’s request.

The revised resolution restates the appropriate findings for the ten “Small Surplus Land Parcel” properties and if adopted will be submitted directly to the HCD representative per HCD’s request. As previously noted and restated, these properties qualify as “exempt surplus land” under Government Code Section 54221(f)(1)(B) because each property is less than one-half acre (21,780 SF) and are not contiguous to land owned by a State or local agency that is used for open-space or low- and moderate-income housing purposes.

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
N/A

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA/NEPA)
The proposed resolution declaring the properties exempt surplus property is itself exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because the requested action is for purposes of property characterization under the SLA for purposes of potential future disposition by sale or lease, and provides no entitlement or agreement to develop the properties. Based on these facts, it can be seen with certainty that there 216 of 379

is no possibility that this activity may have a significant effect on the environment pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).

CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE
This item is exempt from campaign disclosure requirements.

ALTERNATIVES TO STAFF RECOMMENDATION

1. Not adopt the revised resolution. This would leave the exemption status unresolved because the HCD will not approve the City’s requested exemption without the revised resolution.

2. Any other alternative not proposed by staff.

THE SURPLUS LAND ACT WITH REVISED ASSESSOR PARCEL NUMBER FOR DOWNTOWN LOT 7

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE FINDS AS FOLLOWS:

A. The City of Glendale owns ten (10) parking lots (collectively referred to as the "Properties"), shown in the table below, and as further depicted on Exhibits "A" (Site Map) and Exhibit "B" (Google Maps and Parcel Maps highlighted), attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

LOCATION ADDRESS APN SIZE (SF)
1) Downtown Lot 2 303 N. Maryland 5643-019-900 20,375

10) Park & Ride Lot 805 Fairmont 5635-019-902 18,956
B. City Council directed staff to explore the potential for ground leasing and developing small City-owned parking lots as part of the City’s overall budget strategy and to look at larger City-owned parking lots as part of the City’s effort to meet the City’s affordable housing goals, which larger lots are part of a separate resolution. 218 of 379

C. Prior to any disposition of the Properties the Council must consider whether the Properties are subject to the Surplus Land Act (Gov. Code, §§ 54220- 54234)(“SLA”), which aims to make local public land that is no longer needed for government purposes available for building affordable housing, and provides for exemptions.

D. SLA Guidelines, section 103(c)(3) provides an exemption for Small Surplus Land Parcels that are less than one-half acre (21,780 SF)( and which are not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low-and moderate-income housing purposes.

E. All of the Properties referenced herein qualify for the “small surplus land parcel” exemption because they are less on 21,780 SF (See Exhibit “B” parcel maps), and none of them are contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low- and moderate- income housing purposes. (See Exhibit “C” Google maps).

F. None of the none of the Properties require issuance of a Notice of Availability for open space be sent (per Surplus Land Act Guidelines Section 103(d)) to any park or recreation department of the city, county or regional park authority where the land is located because the Properties are:

1. Not located within a coastal zone. The City of Glendale is located approximately 20 miles from the Pacific Ocean.

2. Not adjacent to a historical unit of the State Parks System. All of the Properties are located in urban setting not adjacent to any state, local or regional parks.

4. Not located within the Lake Tahoe Region. Glendale is located in Southern California.

G. This declaration of exempt surplus property is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this action may have a significant effect on the environment pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3). The future sale or lease of the properties, if approved by the City Council, would be exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15312 (Surplus Government Property Sales) because the Property would be declared exempt surplus property pursuant to the Surplus Land Act and is not located in an area of statewide, regional, or areawide concern identified in CEQA Guidelines Section 15206(b)(4).

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:

1.Incorporation of Findings. The City Council hereby incorporates by this reference the findings set forth above as true and correct. 219 of 379

2.Declaration of Exemption (Surplus Land Act). The City Council finds and declares that the Properties are "exempt surplus property" under the SLA because the Properties qualify as exempt pursuant to SLA Guidelines section 103(c)(3) as small surplus land parcels, each a non-contiguous, distinct unit of land less than 21,780 SF, and not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low- and moderate- income housing purposes.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

AGENDA ITEM
Report: Amended and Restated Professional Services Agreement with Vital Medical Services LLC for medical services extending the term for one year beginning on July 1, 2025.

1. Motion authorizing the City Manager, or a designee, to execute an Amended and Restated Professional Service Agreement with Vital Medical Services LLC, to extend the term for one year beginning on July 1, 2025 at a cost of $627,698 for a not-to-exceed amount of $5,107,924.

COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Action Item
Approved for April 15, 2025 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Vital Medical Services LLC (Vital) provides medical services for Police Department arrestees and inmates. The current contract with Vital expires on June 30, 2025. In anticipation of releasing a Request for Proposal (RFP), a Request for Information (RFI) was issued to determine what other companies offer similar services, and to identify other potential services that might be available to the city. In order to complete the RFP process based upon the research gathered from the RFI, staff is requesting a one-year extension of the current contract.

RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager to execute an Amended and Restated Professional Service Agreement for a one-year extension with Vital Medical Services LLC.

ANALYSIS
On October 21, 2014, the City Council authorized the Glendale Police Department (GPD) to enter into a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Vital Medical Services LLC for professional medical services for arrestees and inmates in the GPD jail. In October 2017, the City Council authorized a second three-year agreement with Vital. In April 2020, the City Council approved a five-year extension of the contract, which is set to expire on June 30, 2025.

Throughout the contract period, Vital Medical Services has provided comprehensive medical care, including blood draws, medical screenings, pregnancy testing, Narcan administration and training, telehealth services, and medical oversight, reliably meeting operational and regulatory expectations.

In anticipation of releasing a RFP, GPD issued a RFI to potentially identify any additional vendors capable of providing similar medical services. It was also intended to solicit information to identify additional services that could be provided to further improve delivery of service and efficiency for jail operations. The results of the RFI highlighted new medical services that could be provided and the importance of an extensive evaluation process to ensure that a contract awarded to a medical services vendor through the RFP process meets the comprehensive and specific needs of GPD. Based on these findings, GPD will initiate the RFP process which is anticipated to take approximately six to eight months.

Therefore, GPD is seeking to extend the current contract through an Amended and Restated Professional Service Agreement with Vital Medical Services for one year to allow GPD staff sufficient time to conduct a RPF and ensure continuity of operations during the process.

FISCAL IMPACT

RECOMMENDATION
Approve utilization of one rent-free date at the Alex Theatre.

ANALYSIS
As part of the Management Agreement, Evnsong (formerly SAS) agreed to provide the City with twelve annual days of Theatre use, free of facility rental charge. In addition to events hosted by the City, the City may sponsor community groups, who meet the minimum criteria and receive City Council approval, by providing them use of one of these twelve dates. The facility rental fee is waived by the Theatre for these groups, but all other costs associated with the use of the Theatre are to be paid for by the group requesting the sponsorship.

This is the seventh request received by the City from a community group for the 2025 calendar year. Community Groups which have received an approved City day:

1. Los Angeles Youth Orchestra (May 31, 2025)

2. Ofelya Hambardzumyan’s 100-Year Anniversary with artist Gevorg Chakmanyan (April 3, 2025)

3. Wild Honey (May 24, 2025)

4. Center for Armenian Arts Benefit Concert (April 30, 2025)

5. Sister Cities Event (March 6, 2025)

6. Horizon TV concert to celebrate Armenian Independence Day (May 29, 2025)

7. Armenian Fairytales (December 2025)
Staff and the Alex anticipate the City will use the Theatre for reoccurring events and are cognizant not to bring forward community events which would surpass the number of allocated dates considering these anticipated date uses. The Council may direct staff to set aside additional dates for anticipated events in addition to the three below:

1. Armenian Genocide Commemoration Event

2. Glendale Tech Week

3. Women’s Equity Day

STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
Marketing for the event will take place through the organization’s base, and all regular Alex Theatre ticket marketing outlets.

Approved for April 15, 2025 calendar

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Glendale began operating Beeline fixed-route and Dial-A-Ride service in 1984, after the passage of the first transportation ½-cent sales tax, Proposition A. The City of Glendale has continued its commitment to, and prioritization of, public transit services by constructing City-owned dedicated bus maintenance, operations, and administrative facilities and expanding fixed-route service to meet the unmet transit needs within our region.

The Cities of Glendale and Pasadena are requesting designation as Included Municipal Operators for regional transit operations funding to provide regional transit services in Glendale and neighboring cities where our riders depend on them, with the goal of improving transit services.

RECOMMENDATION
Pass a motion authorizing the City Manager to submit a joint request to Metro for Included Municipal Operator designation for the Cities of Glendale and Pasadena.

ANALYSIS
The City of Glendale and the City of Pasadena have prepared an application to request designation as Included Municipal Operators to continue providing regional transit services in Glendale, Pasadena, and neighboring cities that our riders depend on. Since becoming Tier II operators in 2011, Glendale and Pasadena have continued the Cities’ commitment to, and prioritization of, public transit services by:

Glendale - Constructing a City-owned dedicated bus maintenance, operations, and administrative facility and expanding fixed-route service to meet the unmet transit needs within our region.

Pasadena – Designing and preparing to construct a city-owned dedicated bus maintenance and operations facility; designing and building a hydrogen fueling station; and expanding fixed-route service and fleet to meet the unmet transit needs within their region, including operating two recently transferred Metro routes.

Transit Operations Funding
As the designated County Transportation Commission, Metro has the authority to program all regional transportation funds to itself and other agencies within LA County.

The primary sources of transit operations funding that Metro allocates are the four voter- approved county transportation sales taxes: Proposition A, Proposition C, Measure R, and Measure M, as well as the State of California TDA Article 4 and STA.

Metro distributes the state and local operating subsidies to Included Municipal Operators.
