Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: The crisis of unsheltered homelessness is one that impacts our entire community, both those experiencing homelessness and the broader community of housed residents, businesses, and neighborhoods. Over the past several years, the City and County have made significant investments to increase the availability of shelter, services and permanent housing for people and families experiencing homelessness.
On Dec 6, 2022, the City and County entered into a legally binding partnership agreement memorializing the respective roles of each agency to address the homelessness crisis. This oral report provides an update on efforts in accordance with the partnership agreement.
Policy Considerations: The City County Partnership Agreement furthers local coordination in response to homelessness, enhances existing sheltering and navigation efforts, is in alignment with the Local Homeless Action Plan, and fulfills key requirements of the Emergency Shelter and Enforcement Act of 2022.
Economic Impacts: Not applicable.
