City Council
10F. Grant application to the California Department of Housing and Community Development
(HCD) Encampment Resolution Funding (ERF) Grant Program’s Round 5 (ERF-5-R)
Funding. Environmental Considerations: The action being considered by the City Council
is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a
"project" under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it can be seen with
certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant
effect on the environment. The action is also exempt from CEQA under Section 15378(b)
(5) of the CEQA Guidelines because it involves an organizational or administrative
activity of government that will not result in direct or indirect physical change in the
environment. Contact Person: Homeless Program Coordinator Pugh
Recommended Action: 1) Consider and provide direction to staff to authorize the City
Manager, in coordination with the City Attorney, to submit an application to HCD for
Encampment Resolution Funding Round 5 (ERF-5-R); and 2) If City Council direction is
for staff to submit an application and funding is awarded, bring the grant award back to
City Council for consideration on accepting the funding.
