Title
Consider recommendations regarding Execution of Supportive Services Agreement with Housing Authority of the County of Santa Barbara for the provision of Department of Behavioral Wellness services to Homekey Program tenants Homekey Studios, an affordable rental housing development in Lompoc, California, as follows:
a) Approve and authorize the Chair to execute a Supportive Services Agreement with the Housing Authority of the County of Santa Barbara for the Department of Behavioral Wellness to refer Homekey Program-eligible individuals for tenancy at, and provide supportive services to, Homekey Studios tenants of 117 North B Street, Lompoc, an affordable housing rental development, in connection with the award of $270,000.00 in California Housing and Community Development Permanent Local Housing Assistance (PLHA) funds for the period of December 1, 2020 to November 30, 2025;
b) Delegate to the Director of Behavioral Wellness or designee the authority to make immaterial changes to the Agreement without requiring a formal amendment to the Agreement, subject to the Board’s ability to rescind this delegated authority at any time; and
c) Determine that the above recommended actions are government fiscal activities or funding mechanisms, which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment and are therefore not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4).
