Title
Consider recommendations regarding Authorize Submission of Encampment Resolution Funding Application to State of California Interagency Council on Homelessness (Cal ICH), as follows:
a) Authorize the Community Services Director, or designee, acting on behalf of the County of Santa Barbara, to submit an application for up to $8 Million and all certifications, standard forms, and other related documents to the Cal ICH for the countywide collaborative to be selected for participation in the third round of the California Encampment Resolution Funding Round 3 (CERF-3) program;
b) Authorize the Community Services Director, or designee, to execute all certifications, standard forms, and a grant agreement in a form substantially similar to the CA Encampment Resolution Funding grant agreement, and other related documents required for the acceptance and administration of CERF-3 State funds; and
c) Determine the above recommended actions are not the approval of a project that is subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5), finding that the actions are organizational or administrative activities of government that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.
