STATEMENT OF WORK

SOUTH BAY CITIES COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS

LOCAL SOLUTIONS FUND (LSF)
I. Overview
Homelessness is a regional crisis. As such, one of the top priorities of the Chief Executive Office’s Homeless Initiative (CEO-HI) is to continue strengthening the collaboration between the County and diverse stakeholders, including the 88 cities in Los Angeles County. Since cities have jurisdiction over planning/land use activities and have the insight to support locally specific solutions, cities play a unique role in our countywide efforts to prevent and combat homelessness.

The Councils of Governments (COGs) have a unique and important role in facilitating a regional approach with their member cities to address homelessness.

The South Bay Cities Council of Governments (SBCCOG) includes the unincorporated South Bay areas of Los Angeles County and the cities of: Carson, El Segundo, Gardena, Hawthorne, Hermosa Beach, Inglewood, Lawndale, Lomita, Manhattan Beach, Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Rolling Hills, Rolling Hills Estates, Torrance, and Los Angeles 15th Council District communities of San Pedro, Harbor City, Harbor Gateway, and Wilmington.

The SBCCOG Board of Directors is comprised of elected officials from each of the SBCCOG’s member cities and County Districts 2 and 4 and serves as the primary governing body taking actions to support endeavors aimed at maximizing the quality of life and productivity of the South Bay region.

In aiming to increase participation of cities in County’s New Framework to End Homelessness, the emphasis of the strategies is to create opportunities for co-investment that lead to an increase in cities’ ability to respond at a local level to community members’ greatest concerns in alignment with the New Framework, while leveraging cities’ unique capabilities to increase access to housing.

Information on the required deliverables for the Local Solutions Funds (LSF). COGs should use LSF to support cities to implement activities that align with the County’s New Framework to End Homelessness. The New Framework to End Homelessness outlines the following strategies for cities and COGs.

New Framework to End Homelessness Strategies
1 Coordinate Regional and Local Annual Planning
2 Prevent Infuse Problem Solving into Local Services
3 Connect Outreach and Navigation Linked to Local Rehousing Services 4 House Co-Investment in Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) and Interim Housing 20 Locally Sited Time Limited Subsidies (TLS)
5 Stabilize Local Eviction and Prevention Prioritized and Linked to Formerly Homeless Residents
II. Objective
The SBCCOG will use this funding to manage the tasks described below, including coordinating with Cities to participate in interjurisdictional activities and advancing regional solutions and approaches that align with the New Framework to End Homelessness.

III. Tasks
Task 1: Regional Homelessness Coordination
Task 1A: Regional Homelessness Coordination
Task 1A Description: The main priority of the SBCCOG is to work closely with member cities to identify each city’s specific homeless housing needs, and to quickly seek additional inventory in the private and public housing market to address those needs. Additionally, the SBCCOG will conduct Homelessness Taskforce Meetings with member Cities, Agencies, and Partners to create a regional response to homelessness. The SBCCOG will facilitate best practices of sharing and regional coordination amongst its member cities including quarterly meetings with city homeless services staff, keep our online resource guide focused on synthesizing the programs offered by the County and Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) up to date, and provide ongoing technical assistance and support to cities in implementing projects. This work will include advisory guidance, education & training, as well as support in identifying and pursuing funding.

Task 2G. Shared Housing Locator with Focus on Senior Population Task 2G Description: The Shared Housing Locator staff will develop an inventory of friendly landlords in the South Bay and work with case managers to match participants to available units, engaging with landlords to provide education on various incentive programs. The Navigator may also be tasked to ensure participants have support to stay stably housed.

While the Housing Locator will serve the general population, the fastest growing population in the South Bay PEH are seniors (over 40% growth rate the past 2 years). The SBCCOG will attempt to hire a Housing Locator with experience in this population. Senior issues can be unique, and navigating the various Senior programs (e.g., IHSS, APS, Medicare, PACE, SSA) can be challenging.

Task 2H: Home Share South Bay
Task 2H Description: Home Share South Bay updates the age-old concept of homesharing.

Through this program, compatible homeowners and renters find each other. Once a homeowner and home seeker list their profiles with Silvernest, the site provides support throughout the homesharing journey. It does this by screening their compatibility based on personal preferences.

Rent is negotiated and can be reduced in exchange for household services.

SBCCOG will refer PEH and those at risk of homelessness to Home Share South Bay. We can help train and navigate participants through the sign-up process. We will also consult with property owners and suggest a rent that is appropriate for our PEH population. The SBCCOG participates in various community events to promote Home Share South Bay.

Task 2K: Motel and SRO Leasing
Task 2K Description:

Motels can serve as a valuable resources to quickly shelter someone. The State is investing heavily in motel conversions through Project Homekey. SBCCOG will utilize motel rooms to get people off the streets for 1-6 months so that they can have a safe place to complete their housing plan.

Cities will be able to lease motel rooms on a short-term basis, up to 6 months at a time. The SBCCOG will reimburse the cities. The Case Manager of any participant in the motels will be required to visit every other day and provide wrap around services. The program would also address the food issue coordinating with the cities that can provide meals, and the SBCCOG would also solicit the non-profit community for meals/groceries. Additional requirements include participants who are lower acuity and can live self-sufficiently. Participants will need to already have a long-term housing plan. The goal of the program is to not have the Participant return to the streets after 6 months.

Utilize rooms as interim housing for
individuals to be safely housed as they
create and complete housing plan.

Ensure that all participants have a
housing plan and behavioral health plan
if needed.
a. Increase room
inventory to 12

Task 2L: SHARE Housing to Employment
Task 2L Description:

Many of our homeless clients have income, but cannot afford to pay full rent. SHARE provides housing in a shared room environment - often times to support those rehabilitating from substance use. For $550 a month, SHARE is able to house an individual and provide substance use recovery and employment services. Manhattan Beach is already using general funds to lease SHARE beds and is pleased with the results.

The SBCCOG will partner with SHARE to provide shared rooms for our South Bay homeless participants. While in SHARE, these participants will receive case management, substance use counselling, and linkage to the South Bay Workforce Development Board. The goal of the program is to help participants recover and obtain employment.

Share to house 48 participants
throughout the year. Share to provide
case management and group support
services where needed.

Task 2M: Tax Default Properties
Task 2M Description: The main focus of the County is to encourage the development of more Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH). In coordination with the cities, this program can fund the acquisition of tax default properties, which are on average around $20,000. The cities would own these properties. The program will also match cities with non-profits who can access additional funding to develop these properties into group homes or PSH.

Task 2N: Shallow Subsidy
Task 2N Description: The SBCCOG Shallow Subsidy (SS) program will be offered utilizing a twopronged approach: as an extension of the current Client Aid program, and through a potential outsource partner such as the Salvation Army. Because the Lease Agreement is entirely between the Landlord and the Client, administering the program will be low barrier. The client’s case manager will work on a 6-month subsidy graduation plan.

The SS program will be used for both prevention and re-housing. The program will require participants to graduate within a 6-12 month window. This program will require the Case Manager to be engaged weekly with the participant to ensure that they are progressing on their housing plan. 34 One unique component of this program is that the SBCCOG intends to work closely with our Housing Authorities to match our TLS recipients to a Housing Choice Voucher. The idea is to get participants into housing with the subsidy first – and then lease in place with a voucher.

45 Co-Investment Template: Cities and COGs
SAMPLE
The County’s New Framework to End Homelessness calls for Cities and Council of Governments (COGs) to co-invest in key strategies that accelerate and amplify impact locally and regionally to develop more permanent housing and provide pathways to housing and services for decommissioning encampments and meeting the needs of people experiencing homelessness.

Please complete the following two questions to provide more information on how your City/COG is co-investing to address homelessness and housing. Please include all relevant programs, adding additional cells to the tables if necessary. The goal of this document is to better understand the full set of investments and programs made by your City/COG outside of Local Solutions Funds (LSF). This document will help to identify the true costs associated with addressing homelessness with our shared jurisdictions and gaps in services that could be addressed through future funding opportunities.

Please send the completed forms to [email protected], copying Onnie Williams III, [email protected].

Example:
1) For programs funded by the Local Solution Fund (LSF), which are your City/COG coinvesting in? Co-investment could be in the form of funding, staffing, resources, land, local legislation, etc. Please list the specific Task from the LSF Statement of Work (SOW) and describe the co-investment below.

Task: 2C Landlord Engagement and Assistance Program (Example) Co-investment Description: To support the Landlord Engagement and Assistance Program, the City is providing $100,000 in funding to support 2 additional FTEs. This builds upon the 2 FTEs funded under the LSF, totaling 4 FTEs. These FTEs are responsible for housing location and unit acquisition. Additionally, the City is providing office and meeting space to support landlord engagement and assistance program activities. (Example) Budgeted Costs to Supplement LSF (If applicable): $100,000 (Example) Funding Source of Co-investment (If applicable): General Funds (Example) 46 2) Apart from programs funded by the Local Solutions Fund (LSF), what other direct investments is your City/COG making related to homelessness and housing? Please describe below.

Example:

Program Name: City Navigation Center (Example)
Co-investment Description: The City was successfully awarded Homekey 2 funding to construct a Navigation Center in the City of X. This Navigation Center will provide 60 interim housing units and supportive services including housing navigation, case management, etc.

The Navigation Center is expected to open in November 2023. (Example) Key Metrics (Example: Number of Interim or Permanent Housing Units):
• Number of Interim Housing Beds/Units: 60 (Example)
Budgeted Costs (If applicable): $22,000,000 (Example)
• $19,000,000 Homekey 2
• $3,000,000 General Funds
Funding Source of Co-investment (If applicable): Homekey 2, General Funds (Example) 47 Co-Investment Template: Cities and COGs
