TRANSFER FUNDING AND SPENDING
AUTHORITY FOR CONTRACT LEGAL
SERVICES PROGRAM FIFTEEN HUNDRED
ELIMINATION. THIS PROPOSAL IS A
NET ZERO COSTS TECHNICAL
ADJUSTMENT THAT WOULD STREAMLINE
SPENDING AND PROVIDE OUR
DEPARTMENT WITH ADDITIONAL
FLEXIBILITY TO SECURE LEGAL
REPRESENTATION BY REMOVING A
RESTRICTION WITHIN OUR BUDGET
DEDICATED THAT DEDICATES FUNDING
ONLY TO ONE SPECIFIC PURPOSE THE
CIVIL RIGHTS DEPARTMENT
MAINTAINS DIRECT AUTHORITY TO
PROSECUTE VIOLATIONS OF THE FAIR
EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING ACT IN
TRIAL COURTS. EXISTING LAW ALSO
PROVIDES THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF
JUSTICE REPRESENTS STATE
AGENCIES IN JUDICIAL AND
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS.
WITHIN THE C. R. D. BUDGET
PROGRAM FIFTEEN HUNDRED
SPECIFICALLY APPROPRIATES
FUNDING FOR THESE LEGAL SERVICES
PROVIDED. BY DOJ TO C. R. D.
THESE FUNDS ARE DEDICATED AND
MAY ONLY BE EXPENDED ON DOJ'S
SERVICES IN MULTIPLE YEARS THESE
ALLOCATIONS HAVE EXCEEDED
EXPENDITURES AND WE WERE UNABLE
TO EXPAND THE FUN. AS PROGRAM
FIFTEEN HUNDRED FUNDS ARE SOLELY
DEDICATED TO REIMBURSING DOJ
ANYTIME CRD MUST SEEK OUTSIDE

FROM C. ARGUES PROGRAM FOURTEEN
NINE NINETY. ADMINISTRATOR
ADMINISTRATION OF CIVIL RIGHTS
LAW AND THE DEDICATED FUNDING

REMAIN UNSPENT. APPROVAL OF THIS

WRISTS AND CONSULT WITH DOJ WHEN
SITUATIONS ARISE THAT MAY
REQUIRE APPOINTMENT OF OUTSIDE
COUNSEL. BY ELIMINATING PROGRAM
FIFTEEN HUNDRED AND INSTEAD
PLACING THE FUNDS IN PROGRAM

WILL HAVE MORE FLEXIBILITY TO
USE THE FUNDS TO PAY EITHER DOJ
OR OUTSIDE COUNSEL OR
APPROPRIATE LEGAL EXPERTS WHEN
NEEDED. ROTH TO HIRE OUTSIDE
COUNSEL WILL NOT BE IMPEDED BY
C. R. D. HAVING TO IDENTIFY

BETTER ABLE TO EXECUTE ITS
MISSION. THANK YOU FOR YOUR
CONSIDERATION I WELL WE'RE OPEN

ONE QUESTIONER SHOULD I JUST
RELY UPON YOUR- MICROPHONE TO
BE. THAT'S YOGA. I UNDERSTAND
THE REASONING HOW WILL WE KNOW.
THAT YOU CAN. LOOK AT THIS FROM
A FROM A BUDGETARY AS OPPOSED
OPERATIONAL STANDPOINT HOW WILL
WE KNOW WHETHER. THIS CHANGE
WILL RESULT IN GREATER OR LESSER
EXPENDITURE. THERE'S CURRENTLY A
CERTAIN AMOUNT OF MONEY WITHIN
THAT. THE FOURTEENTH OF FIFTEEN
HUNDRED PROGRAM. WE'RE CURRENTLY
ONLY WERE SPENDING THAT AMOUNT
OF MONEY AND WE'RE TRACKING IT.
WE HAVE NOT GONE OVER THAT
AMOUNT BUT- WE HAVE HAD TO
TRANSFER MONEY FROM THAT ACCOUNT
INTO OUR FOURTEEN NINETY TO PAY

HAVEN'T SEEN A TREND OF USING
ANYMORE WE'RE TRACKING IT
CLOSELY AND WE'RE KEEPING OUR
EYE ON. THANK YOU. CAREER THANK

DEPARTMENT AND THE CIVIL RIGHTS
DEPARTMENT- AS SB SIX FORTY NINE
EXPLICITLY AUTHORIZES LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS TO ENACT LOCAL
TENANT PREFERENCES. IN RELATION
TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING CREATED
USING SUBSIDIES FROM SPECIFIC
GOVERNMENT FUNDING SOURCES. ALL
THE H. C. D. N. C. R. E. HAVE A

.
MARCH DEPARTMENT OF FINANCIER
DOESN'T REQUEST BUT- MONITOR
THANK. AT IT TO THE NATURE OF
THE NEW NATURE OF LOCAL KIND OF
PREFERENCE POLICIES AND
UNCERTAINTY AROUND HOW MANY
LOCAL TIME OR HOW MANY LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS WILL CREATE LOCAL
TENANT PREFERENCES AND SO
DEPARTMENTS WILL CLOSELY MONITOR
HOW MANY LOCAL TENANT
PREFERENCES ARE RECEIVED AND
THEN AT A LATER DATE- WILL
DETERMINE SORT OF- WHAT THE
ONGOING NEED FOR TEMPLE AND THIS
BILL IS. THANK YOU US. HOPEFULLY
IN YOUR RESPONSES TO MY
COLLEAGUES QUESTIONS YOU WILL-
BOTH OF YOU- FROM- HCD AND SO
RIGHTS TO BURMA WILL TELL US HOW
YOU GONNA RESOLVE ISSUE SO WE
AVOID DIFFERENT CONCLUSIONS
SINCE YOUR CONCLUSIONS ARE
PRETTY SIGNIFICANT TO THE PEOPLE
WHO RECEIVE THEM THE FIRST LET
ME TURN OVER MY COLLEAGUES AND
ASK OF COLLEAGUES OF ANY
QUESTIONS CENTER CARRIER LOOK
LIKE YOU'RE MOVING MIKE. THANK
YOU VERY MUCH MISTER CHAIR SO-
YOU KNOW ONE OF ONE OF MY
FRUSTRATIONS FROM THE
LEGISLATIVE PERSPECTIVE IS THAT
MANY TIMES- PEOPLE WELL PUT THE
WORK IN THE DEPARTMENT THAT
DOESN'T HAVE ANY HISTORY OF
DOING. THE WORK IT DOESN'T
REALLY GET FIXED- AND- AND WE
CREATE A BIGGER BUREAUCRACY WHEN
MAYBE THAT WASN'T NECESSARY SO
I'M NOT SAYING THAT'S THE CASE
HERE BUT CAN YOU EXPLAIN. WHY
THERE ARE I MEAN I AM I
UNDERSTAND THAT THAT THAT THAT.
THAT BOTH OF YOUR DEPARTMENTS DO
WORK IN THIS AREA BUT IT SEEMS
TO ME THAT. WE NEED TO BE VERY
CLEAR THAT WE'RE NOT ONE
DUPLICATING WORK AND TOO AS THE
CHAIR SAID- HAVING AT AT THE
SITUATION WHERE THERE'S
DIFFERENT CONCLUSIONS ABOUT THE
SITUATION THAT THEN CREATES
CONFUSION SO. MAYBE YOU CAN HELP
ME ON THIS. OF COURSE SO I'M ONE
OF THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE-
CURRENTLY AS A- RESPONSIBILITY
IS THE- REVIEW. OF LOCAL TENANT
PREFERENCES AS- JURISDICTIONS
APPLY FOR FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES
SO THAT'S LAID OUT IN OUR
UNIFORM ALL DAY FAMILY
REGULATIONS SO WE'RE ALREADY
LOOKING AT LOCAL TENANT
PREFERENCES ALTHOUGH WE ARE
ASSUMING THAT THERE WILL BE SOME
ADDITIONAL UPTAKE AS A RESULT OF
THE LEGISLATION IS PASSED- AS MY
COLLEAGUE FROM DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE MENTIONED WE DON'T KNOW
EXACTLY HOW MUCH. THAT UPTAKE
WILL BE I IN TERMS OF- OTHER
JURISDICTIONS LOOKING TO APPLY
THE PREFERENCES WHAT WE ARE
ALREADY DOING THAT WORK AND
THEN. THERE IS A TRUE- REALLY
DISTINCTION IN THE DIVISION OF
LABOR. BETWEEN WHAT IT IS THAT
WE DO H. CD AND CRB WE'RE A
LITTLE WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT UP
FRONT- TECHNICAL GUIDANCE. I TO
JURISDICTIONS THAT ARE
CONSIDERING USING THE PREFERENCE
AND THEN WE REVIEW AND APPROVE
THOSE AS IT RELATES TO OUR
APPLICATION FOR FUNDING. C. R.
D. IS REALLY LOOKING AT THE BACK
END OF THE PROCESS TO SEE IF
THOSE POLICIES ARE CORRECTLY
APPLIED. IN TERMS OF RESPONDING
TO COMPLAINTS INVESTIGATIONS AND
ANY TYPE OF CIVIL OF CIVIL
LITIGATION THAT MAY RESULT. I'M
WE DO INTEND TO WORK TOGETHER
NOT ONLY ON THE FRONT END. BUT
THEN ALSO ON THE BACK AND
SHARING INFORMATION WHERE THOSE
COMPLAINTS MAY COME TO LIGHT.
THAT NUMBER A LOT OF SENSE
EXPLANATION IS- IS REALLY GOOD-
YOU MENTIONED THAT YOU ADVICE
COMMUNITIES AS WELL. AND I'M I'M
HOPING THAT INCLUDES CREATING
OUT MATRIX OR A- PUNCH LIST OR
SOMETHING THAT HELPS COMMUNITIES
GO THROUGH AN ANALYSIS. UP
BECAUSE THIS IS ALL THIS TENET
PREFERENCES IS ALL RELATIVELY
NEW IN TERMS OF. VALUE IN MANY
COMMUNITIES CORRECT AND WE DO
PLAN ON JOINTLY PROVIDING
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION-
AVAILABLE TO- LIKE IN THE FORM
OF FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FOR FOLKS THAT ARE INTERESTED IN
PROCEEDING. THANK YOU. VERY MUCH
. CIRCULO AND ANY QUESTIONS. SO
JUST MAKE SURE I'M CLEAR SO.
THERE'S NOT AN ISSUE OF YOU KNOW
WHEN YOU HAVE ENFORCEMENT
AGENCIES AND YOU HAVE AGENCIES
THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO PROVIDE
ASSISTANCE AND HELP. SOMETIMES
WE NEED TO SET FIREWALL SO THAT
PEOPLE CAN. ASK QUESTIONS FREELY
AND GET INFORMATION AND NOT.
FEAR THAT WHATEVER THEY'RE
TALKING TO YOU ABOUT GOING TO BE
PASSED ON TO- AND FORSMAN AGENCY
IS THAT AN ISSUE HERE- AND IF SO
HOW DO WE DEAL WITH THAT. I
THINK IF THE STORAGE DEPARTMENT
RECEIVES A COMPLAINT THAT STATE
LOW I PARTICULAR LOCAL TAVERN
TENANT PREFERENCES NOT BEING
APPLIED IN A WAY THAT COMPORTS
WITH. OUR STATE FAIR HOUSING
LAWS WE WOULD INVESTIGATE THAT
COMPLAINT TO OUR OWN INDEPENDENT
ANALYSIS OF THE ISSUE BUT LOOK
TO REQUEST. EIGHT CITIES
ANALYSIS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY
DID WHAT THEY SAW WHEN THEY WERE
LOOKING AT THE FRONT END OF THE
POLICY ITSELF NOT THE ACTUAL
APPLICATION OF IT IN THE
INSTANCE THAT WE MIGHT. BE
ASSERTING INSIDE THEIR EVIDENT
BEARER ANALYSIS WOULD BE
RELEVANT TO OUR INVESTIGATION
BUT WOULD NOT DETERMINE IT AND
SO- THAT ALSO I THINK SPEAKS TO
THE DO DUPLICATIVE OUTCOMES- ON
THE FRONT AND LOOKING AT. A
POLICY THAT LOCALITY MAY BE
TRYING TO ADOPT AND HELPING
GUIDE THEM IN THAT PROCESS. BUT
THEN EIGHT AT C. R. D. WOULD BE
LOOKING AT ACTUAL COMPLAINTS OF
THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE POLICY
IN PARTICULAR PROJECTS AND SO.
IT MAY BE THAT A POLICY IS
PERFECTLY FINE AND LEGAL BUT THE
ACTUAL APPLICATION HOW IT WAS
IMPLEMENTED MAY RUN AFOUL. OR AT
LEAST RAISE CONCERNS IS IT
LIKELY THAT DURING AND I DON'T
WANT TO BELABOR THIS- BUT IS IT
LIKELY DURING THE PROCESS THAT
HCD WOULD COLLECT INFORMATION
FROM INDIVIDUALS. ABOUT THIS
LOCAL TENANT PREFERENCE AND HOW
IT WORKS OR HOW IT DOESN'T WORK
THAT COULD THEN BE PASSED ON TO
THE- CIVIL RIGHTS DEPARTMENT-
FOR USE DURING ITS INVESTIGATION
. EIGHT I CERTAINLY WOULD WOULD
HOPE SO WE WOULD AS- APPRECIATE
KNOWING H. EIGHT CITIES ANALYSIS
OF. LOCAL TENANT PREFERENCE AS
WE WERE LOOKING AGAIN AT A
COMPLAINT ABOUT THE
IMPLEMENTATION OF IT IT WOULDN'T
. EIGHT CITIES SURELY WOULD DO A
THOROUGH AND COMPLETE JOB
MINUTES ANALYSIS THAN WE WOULD.
BENEFIT FROM LEARNING FROM WHAT
THEY WHAT THEY SAW. I THINK OF
GRABS I NEED TO DO YOU KNOW MY
OWN. SPADE WORK TO UNDERSTAND A
LITTLE BIT MORE- I'M THINKING
ABOUT CAL OSHA AND- AND THE
PEACE OF CALLOSUM HELPS
EMPLOYERS AND THEN AS A PIECE OF
CAL OSHA THE COMES AND
INVESTIGATES IN THE PIECE THAT
HELPS EMPLOYERS. AS A FIREWALL
AND THEY DON'T TALK ABOUT WHAT
THE PEOPLE THAT THEY'RE TRYING
TO HELP OR TELLING THEM. TO THE
PEACE OF CALLOW SHOULD THE DOES
THE ENFORCEMENT BECAUSE THAT
WOULD BE UNFORTUNATE AND- SEVEN
STIFLE THE- FREE FLOW OF
INFORMATION BUT THIS MAY BE
TOTALLY DIFFERENT SO. I'M GOING
TO SHUT MY LIPS AT THIS POINT
AND MOVE ON AND- JUST RESPONDED
CENTER I APPRECIATE THE FLAG AND
AS WE FIGURE OUT HOW WE ARE
GOING TO COORDINATE TOGETHER
IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD
SHOULD CONSIDER. WORKING WITH.
CIRCLE ERA WHERE THAT THAT-
THAT'S A REALLY GOOD POINT AND
ONE THAT I HAD ABOUT BY BY I
THINK. WHAT TO THE EXTENT THAT
THIS IS AN AREA THAT YOU WANT-
SOME UNIFORMED UNIFORMITY AROUND
THE STATE IN TERMS OF HOW IT'S-
YOU'RE PROTECTING CIVIL RIGHTS
IS PREDICTING SOME RIGHT- HAVING
AND HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO
CURE THE ISSUE. WHEN PARTIALLY
RESOLVED THE ISSUE THAT I CENTER
ROCK IS TALKING ABOUT- RATHER
RATHER THAN USING INFORMATION
YOU'VE GOT. THROUGHOUT WHEN I
THINK IT'S PROBABLY AN
ENTERTAINMENT EDUCATION PROCESS
THAT THEN SLAP HIM UPSIDE THE
HEAD IF THEY GET IT WRONG.
BEFORE ALLOWING THEM TO FIX THE
SITUATION- WITH ANYWAY IT'S A
THAT'S MY PREFERENCES IS ALWAYS
TO TRY TO GO IN AND SAY LOOK- IF
YOU'RE IN THE APPLICATION OF
THIS. IS NOT CORRECT BECAUSE
HERE'S HOW IT'S HURTING PEOPLE
OR HERE'S HOW IT'S DEPRIVING
THEM OF THEIR RIGHTS. BUT- I
THINK THAT'S- SUBJECT FOR THE
FUTURE TO LOOK AT AND I WOULD I
WOULD ONLY ADD THAT OUR
DEPARTMENT- HAS A ROBUST
MEDIATION SERVICE. THAT COULD BE
UTILIZED AND IN THOSE INSTANCES
AND AMONG THE CASES FILED WITH
OUR DEPARTMENT THAT ARE REFERRED
TO MEDIATION. WE SAT ALL ABOUT
50% OF THOSE SO WE HAVE TERRIFIC
OUTCOMES. THANK YOU FOR THE
GREAT WORK. A SINGLE OTHER
QUESTIONS- LET'S MOVE ON. TO
ITEM TWENTY TO FORTY BERMAN OF
HOUSING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
ISSUE TWENTY ONE. THROUGH TWENTY
FOUR ISSUE TWENTY ONE IS CAO
HOME REDUCTION WITH RESTORATION
TRIGGER.

DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE- SOME LEG
DUE TO LOWER THAN PROJECTED
GENERAL FUND REVENUES THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET FORECAST AND-
EXCESS OF TWENTY MILLION DOLLAR
BUDGET DEFICIT TO BALANCE THE
BUDGET THE ADMINISTRATION MADE
DIFFICULT DECISIONS TO REDUCE
DELAY OR DEFER VARIOUS ONE TIME
AND LIMITED TERM GENERAL FUND
INVESTMENTS. IN MANY AREAS-
SPECIFICALLY IN THE HOUSING AREA
THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET MAINTAINS
88% OF THE FUNDING COMMITTED IN
THE TWENTY TWENTY TO BUDGET ACT-
AND PROPOSES THREE HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS IN REDUCTIONS OF
WHICH AND THERE'S A HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLAR REDUCTION BEFORE
YOU RIGHT NOW IN THE CALHOUN
REDUCTION. AND IF A GENERAL FUND
REVENUES ARE HIGHER THAN
ANTICIPATED AND- THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET THAN THIS REDUCTION WOULD
BE RESTORED. THE A TRIGGER
MECHANISM. HAPPY TO TAKE
QUESTIONS ON. BINANCE. WELL
HELLO I'M SORRY. WHEN YOU. STEP
INTO THE MANY. MORALES LEN. DOES
NOT MEAN A GENDER OUR OFFICE
ADDRESS AND IT THAT THE BUDGET
PROBLEM BE LARGE THAN. IN GEN AT
THIS POINT WE'RE ANTICIPATING
ABOUT SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS
LARGER. ALTHOUGH WE WILL BE
PROVIDING THAT AS PART OF THE
MAY REVISION AND SO AS OF THE
FEATURES THAT THEY DON'T SHIP
ALTHOUGH THAT WOULD HAVE A
TRIGGER RESTORATION THAT IS
NOTHING THAT WE WOULD ANTICIPATE
COMING TO FRUITION. GIVEN THE
NATURE OF THE BUDGET CONDITION.
AND JUST MORE BROADLY OTHER
LEGISLATURE CONSIDERS THIS AND
OTHER- OTHER- REDUCTIONS AS PART
OF THE AGENDA TODAY- OF THE
LEGISLATURE THINGS ABOUT HER BUT
THE PACKAGES OF SOLUTIONS THE
GOVERNOR SUPPOSING ONE APPROACH
THE LEGISLATURE COULD MAKE.
DIFFERENT DECISIONS ABOUT WHICH
PROGRAMS TO ADJUST AND AT THE
LEGISLATURE DECIDES WHETHER TO
MAINTAIN A SIMILAR LEVEL OF CUT
WITHIN HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS
ARE DIFFERENT AMOUNT IT WOULD
JUST HAVE TO MAKE SORT OF LIKE
ADJUSTMENTS AND OTHER AREAS OF
THE PROJECT. IN ORDER TO ADDRESS
THE OVERALL BUDGET PROBLEM I'M
IDENTIFIED ACROSS THE STATE.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU. DO WE KNOW
WHAT OUTCOMES IS PRO IS K. HOME
PRO IS A AND MORE IMPORTANTLY
WHAT WHAT WE PROJECT THE IMPACT
OF THESE CUTS TO BE. I CAN TAKE
THAT ONE PATRICK OUTBOUND DEPUTY
DIRECTOR FOR LEGISLATION ANY CD
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE
QUESTIONS AND R. ROB- SO.
BETWEEN TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN
AND TWENTY TWENTY THREE THE
STATE HAS MADE ABOUT THREE
HUNDRED AND SIXTY MILLION
DOLLARS AVAILABLE FOR THE
CALHOUN PROGRAM- OF THOSE WE
CURRENTLY HAVE AN OPEN NOTICE OF
FUNDING AVAILABILITY FOUR
HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS- AND WE ARE EXPECTING
ANOTHER HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN
MILLION. NEXT YEAR- THAT HAS
BEEN HELD BACK TO BE RELEASED IN
THE FUTURE NOTICE ON THE ABILITY
OF THE- OF THE THREE FUNDING
ROUNDS THAT WE DO HAVE DATA FOR-
TOTALING A HUNDRED EIGHTY FOUR
MILLION APPROXIMATELY 80% OF
THAT FUNDING. HAS BEEN USED FOR
FIRST TIME HOME BUYER PROGRAMS
AS WELL AS OWNER OCCUPIED
REHABILITATION PROGRAMS THESE
ARE PROGRAMS THAT HELP LOW
INCOME HOMEOWNER MAKE NECESSARY
REPAIRS TO THEIR HOMES SO THAT
THEY CAN STAY AFFORDABLY HOUSED
- SOMEONE BACK FUNDING ALSO WENT
TOWARDS THE DEVELOPMENT OF.
OWNERSHIP AFFORDABLE HOUSING THE
KIND THAT'S BUILT BY SELF HELP-
ORGANIZATIONS LIKE HABITAT FOR
HUMANITY AND SELF HELP HOUSING.
I'M AS I MENTIONED WHILE THE
DEPARTMENT STILL EVALUATING
APPLICATIONS FOR THIS YEAR'S
HOMEOWNERSHIP NOTICES FUNDING
AVAILABILITY. ON BETWEEN TWENTY
NINETEEN TO TWENTY TWENTY ONE
THE DEPARTMENT HAS ASSISTED
ABOUT TWENTY FOUR HUNDRED UNITS
THROUGH CAL HOLE- CORRESPONDING
TO ABOUT SIX THOUSAND
CALIFORNIANS WHO HAVE. BEEN HELP
TO EITHER BECOME FIRST TIME
HOMEOWNERS OR STAY AFFORDABLY
HOUSE. CALL HOME HAS ALSO BEEN
USED TO HELP THE STATE IN ITS
DISASTER RECOVERY EFFORTS SO
SEPARATE FROM. THE REGULAR- NO
FUSS LAST YEAR WE HAD A DISASTER
NOTICE OF FUNDING AVAILABILITY
THAT MADE FORTY ONE MILLION
DOLLARS AVAILABLE- THAT FUNDING
WAS USED TO HELP COUNTIES THAT
LOST STRUCTURES DUE TO NATURAL
DISASTERS RECOVER AND- MOST OF
THE FUNDING WAS ALSO USED FOR
FIRST TIME HOME BUYER PROGRAMS
AS WELL AS OWNER OCCUPIED
REHABILITATION- THE RESULTS
WERE. A HUNDRED AND SEVENTY ONE
UNITS ASSISTED AND FOUR HUNDRED
AND TWENTY EIGHT CALIFORNIANS-
HELPED. ON TO THE SECOND PART OF
YOUR QUESTION ABOUT THE IMPACT
OF TAX CUTS WHY WHILE WE DO NOT
HAVE EXACT FIGURES FOR YOU- WE
ARE EXPECTING TO SEE A REDUCTION
A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION AND
FIRST TIME HOME BUYER PROGRAMS
ACROSS THE STATE- AS WELL AS
OWNER OCCUPIED REHABILITATION
BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE MOST OF THE
FUNDING GOALS- GIVEN THAT THIS
PROGRAM ASSISTS- SEVERAL
THOUSAND HOUSEHOLDS- WITH EACH
FUNDING ROUND. WE EXPECT SEVERAL
THOUSAND HOUSEHOLDS TO BE
IMPACTED- I DON'T HAVE EXACT
FIGURES FOR YOU ON THE NUMBER OF
UNITS ASSISTED. ABOUT THE
INSTABILITY OR RISE I GUESS OF
INTEREST RATES DO YOU AND YOU
SEE THAT AS HAVING ANY
PARTICULAR IMPACT ON THIS
PARTICULAR PROGRAM. SO WE DO IN
THE SENATE. I JUST LIKE. OF MIKE
TO- SO- YES I WOULD SAY THE YOU
KNOW AS ACTUALLY THE L. A. ALL
NOTED AND BEAR ANALYSIS- ON THE
IMPACT OF INTEREST RATES UP WE
ARE EXPECTING THE HIGHER.
INTEREST RATES TO DAMPEN
INTEREST IN THIS PROGRAM- HOME
BUYERS STILL HAVE TO WORK WITHIN
OUR EXISTING HOUSING MARKET AND
THEY'RE STILL LIMITED. ON BY
THOSE HIGHER INTEREST RATES SO-
I WOULD SAY THAT THAT IS PART OF
WHITE. PROMPTED OF THE PROPOSAL
THAT YOU'RE SEEING BEFORE YOU
TODAY WELL THANK YOU FOR THE
RESPONSE VERY VERY IMPORTANT
PROGRAM WE NEED TO MAKE SURE
THAT IT. CAN CONTINUE COLLEAGUES
ANY QUESTIONS AT CENTENNIAL.
THANK YOU RESEARCHER THIS ARE
THE COMMITMENT OF THESE FUNDS
WAS PART OF THE TWENTY TWO
TWENTY THREE BUDGET. ACT THAT'S
CORRECT THAT TWENTY TWO TWENTY
THREE BUDGET COMMITTED THREE
HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS
FOR CALLING HOME TO INTERVENE
MILLION DOLLARS IN TWENTY TWO
TWENTY THREE AND A CURRENT YEAR
OF WHICH EACH CITY HAS PUT OUT A
NOTICE OF FUNDING AVAILABILITY.
ABILITY FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY FIVE
MILLION OF THE HUNDRED FIFTEEN
MILLION TO COME OUT NEXT YEAR
AND THEN A HUNDRED MILLION WAS
SLATED FOR. TWENTY THREE TWENTY
FOUR. AND WAS THAT INCLUDED IN
THE GOVERNOR'S JANUARY TWENTY
TWO. BUDGET PROPOSAL. NOT IT WAS
ADDED AS A LEGISLATIVE PRIORITY
THAT'S CORRECT. ONE DOES NOT
MAKE A TREND BUT I THINK WHEN WE
SEE CUTS WE MIGHT SAYING. THANK
YOU CENTER CIRCLE WE ARE. THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIR- QUESTION. THE
M. THERE I'M AND I'M- APOLOGIZE
. I HAD INTERESTED THERE WAS A
FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS PROGRAM
IS COLLEGES AT CAL HFA. AND THAT
IT WAS- THEY THEY PUT OUT. TWO
HUNDRED MILLION AND MY FAX MAY
BE WRONG WITH THE REASON FOR THE
APOLOGY AND THAT IT IT WAS- IS
BASICALLY SCOOPED UP WITHIN
ELEVEN DAYS. IS THAT DIFFERENT
THAN THIS PROGRAM OR WAS THIS
THE PROGRAM THAT. SPEND IT SO I
THINK I THINK WHAT YOU MAY BE
REFERENCING SENATOR IS THE-
DREAM FOR ALL PROGRAM. AVERAGE
AND THERE IS FIVE HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS BUDGETED GRAND
IN THE CURRENT YEAR IN TWENTY
TWO TWENTY THREE OF THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET ALSO PROPOSES
THAT A REDUCTION FOR THAT
PROGRAM OF TWO HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLARS- AND COLLEGE IF THEY
WILL BE OF. A AND THEN SHORTLY
TO SPEAK ABOUT THAT PROGRAM OKAY
THAT'S VERY GOOD. AND TO THE
SECOND PART OF YOUR QUESTION
ABOUT CAL HOME THERE IS A
DIFFERENCE- HCD DOES NOT PROVIDE
ASSISTANCE DIRECTLY TO
HOMEOWNERS- THIS PROGRAM
PROVIDES FUNDING TO LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS AND NONPROFITS TO
SET UP THESE TYPES OF PROGRAMS.
SO WHILE BATES WE ARE FUNDING
FIRST TIME HOME BUYER PROGRAMS
IT'S INDIRECTLY THROUGH LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS AND NONPROFITS NOT
DIRECTLY TO HOME BUYERS THAT'S
GREAT THANK THANK YOU FOR THAT I
THOUGHT THEY WERE DIFFERENT
PROGRAMS I JUST WASN'T SURE. AND
I AND AT AT SOME POINT- IF. YOU
COULD GET ME A COPY OF THE
JURISDICTIONS THAT HAVE TAKEN
ADVANTAGE OF THAT CRAP PROGRAM
SO I CAN GET A SENSE OF WHERE IN
THE STATE THEY'RE UTILIZING THIS
FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS PROGRAM
THE REASON THAT I'M I'M ASKING
AND I'LL- POCKET. KELLY TODAY
ABOUT IT IS THAT. I HAD ASKED IF
WE COULD DO SOME. OUTREACH ENDED
THE- PARTICULAR INTERRUPT OUR
FINANCE HOME PRICES ARE MUCH
MORE AFFORDABLE STILL BUT THAT
IT'S THEY'RE STILL OUT OF REACH
FOR. MOST OF THE SALARIES IN THE
REGION- IT BUT PEOPLE NEED TO
KNOW HOW TO ACCESS A FIRST TIME
HOME BUYERS PROGRAM INSIDE ASK
FOR SOME- EVEN IF IT'S
ELECTRONICALLY EIGHT WORKSHOPS.
AND WAS TOLD THAT WE CAN ARRANGE
IT BUT IF THE MONEY GOES OUT
ELEVEN HE'S- MY GUESS IS IT'S A
MORE SOPHISTICATED- FIRST TIME
HOME BUYER AND THAT THEY DON'T
NEED AT. AT AT AT TO TORREON IT
AND MY GUESS IS THAT IT'S MORE
URBAN AREAS SINCE I'M A LITTLE
CONCERNED ABOUT MAKING SURE
THERE'S EQUITY SO APPRECIATE
YOUR- YOUR COMMENT. AND WE CAN
TALK OFF LINE ABOUT- WHERE MOST
OF THE RE. GO AND SOME OF THESE
PRO THAT WOULD BE GREAT. WE
HAPPY TO FOLLOW UP WITH IF
YOU'RE- THANK YOU SENATOR SINGLE
OTHER QUESTION LET'S MOVE TO IS
TWENTY TWO EMPLOYEE HOUSING
REGULATION FUND. ESTABLISHMENT
AN INCREASE IN INSPECTORS.
EMPLOYERS PLEASE PROCEED. ONCE

PAYING FOR THOSE EXPENDITURES.
WE'RE ALSO REQUESTING TEN
POSITIONS- THESE WILL BE USED TO

AND- PROVIDE- IMPROVEMENTS IN
PROGRAMS THAT WOULD ALLOW US TO.
IMPROVE INSPECTIONS BY-
APPROXIMATE THREE HUNDRED FIFTY
EACH MONTH ADDITIONAL
INSPECTIONS AND DECREASE OUT
APPLICATION PROCESSING TIMES BY
THIRTY FIVE PERCENT. THESE ARE
CRITICAL HEALTH AND SAFETY NEEDS
AND A MOBILE HOME PARKS AND
SPECIAL OCCUPANCY PARKS ACROSS
THE STATE AND- AS IDENTIFIED IN
THE STATE AUDIT OF TWENTY
NINETEEN. WHERE THE AUDITOR MADE
RECOMMENDATIONS THAT H. CITY
ENTER MORE PARKS AS PART OF OUR-
FEEL MONITORING ACTIVITIES ARE
WE LOOK FORWARD TO THESE
POSITIONS TO HELP US WITH THAT
WORK THANK YOU. HELLO. WE HAVE
NO ISSUES RAISED BY THE
COMMITTEE ON THIS ITEM BINANCE.
IN YOUR MARCH DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE ARE JUST NOT THAT DID-
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE BEFORE YOU
IS- REALLY TO INCREASE
TRANSPARENCY FROM THE DEPARTMENT
WITH THE FEES THAT ARE DEPOSITED
FOR EMPLOYEE HOUSING AND THEN
THE EXPENDITURES- THERE
SUCCEEDED WITH THOSE FEES. THANK
YOU WE ASK A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS
BEFORE I TURNED OVER MY
COLLEAGUES YOU KNOW THIS
EMPLOYEE HOUSING INSPECTION OF
EMPLOYEE HOUSING FACILITIES IS.
VERY VERY IMPORTANT ROLE THAT WE
HAVE- AS SEVEN AS STATE
GOVERNMENT STATE DEPARTMENTS AND
AGENCIES BUT OF COURSE. THE
MOBILE HOME INSPECTION PROGRAM
EXTENDS YOU KNOW FAR BEYOND

UNLICENSED PARKS THIS SPRING UP.
EARLY THERE IS ONE IN CALEXICO
INVOLVING THIRTY FIVE HOMES WITH
IMPROPERLY. INSTALLED SEWER
LINES AND IT'S MY FIRST QUESTION

REDUCE SITUATIONS LIKE THAT.
THANK YOU SENATOR IT WILL-
BECAUSE IT WILL ENABLE US TO
IDENTIFY MORE. UNKNOWN
VIOLATIONS- WE DO HAVE FIFTY TWO
INSPECTORS CURRENTLY- THEY'RE

RESPOND TO COMPLAINTS THAT WE
RECEIVE- AND INVESTIGATE THOSE
COMPLAINTS IN ADDITION TO THE AM
PM- WORKLOAD WHERE WE INSPECT 5%
OF THE PARKS PER YEAR- AND ALSO
PERFORMED. A PERMIT RELATED-
INSPECTIONS IN PARKS WHERE
CONSTRUCTION IS GOING ON SO WE
DO HAVE LIMITED RESOURCES TO
IDENTIFY ALL INSTANCES ACROSS
THE STATE WHERE. VIOLATIONS ARE
ON REPORTED OR COMPLAINTS HAVE
NOT BEEN MADE- SO IT'S REALLY
THROUGH OUR EXPANDED ABILITY TO
ENTER MORE PARKS ON OUR OWN
USING OUR DISCRETIONARY ABILITY
TO HAVE AN INSPECTOR PERFORMS
WHAT WE CALL FIELD MONITORING
INSPECTIONS AS PART OF THEIR
DAILY. INSPECTION DUTIES IF THEY
DRIVE BY APART THAT THEY HAVEN'T
BEEN IN FOR AWHILE THEY CAN
ENSURE THAT PARK OR IF THEY- SEE
A PARK SPRING UP THAT IS NOT
PERMITTED NOT ON OUR RADAR THEY
CAN GO TO OPEN UP A COMPLAINT
AND TAKE ENFORCEMENT ACTION SO.
WE BELIEVE THAT THIS WOULD HELP
WITH THAT. WELL YOU MENTIONED
THE MOBILE HOME MAINTENANCE
INSPECTION PROGRAM WHAT IS THE
STATUS OF THE PROGRAM MY
UNDERSTANDING IS THAT EXPIRES.
AT THE END OF THIS YEAR IS THAT
CORRECT YES IT IT TYPICALLY- IS
A FIVE YEAR. EXTENSION THAT
HISTORICALLY AND WE ARE AWARE
THAT THERE IS A BILL TO EXTEND
OUT YOUR BY. OUR EXTEND THE DATE
BY ONE YEAR- AND I'M AWARE OF
THAT EFFORT TO AND WHILE THERE
IS THAT POLICY BILL I'M JUST-
AND GIVEN THE MPM PROGRAM AS A
STRUCTURAL BUDGET DEFICIT
DOESN'T NINE. CORRECT IT IS
DUFFY WAS SET BY STATUTE IN
NINETEEN NINETY AT FOUR DOLLARS
PER LOT TWO DOLLARS ABOUT FOUR
DOLLAR FEE CAN BE PASSED ON TO
THE PARK TENANTS- SO THAT. THAT
GENERATES APPROXIMATELY ONE
POINT ONE MILLION DOLLARS OF
REVENUE FOR THE AM PM PROGRAM.
WHICH WE CURRENTLY SPEND IN
EXCESS OF ONE POINT FIVE TO ONE
POINT SIX MILLION PER YEAR ON
THAT PROGRAM. AND YOU KNOW AGAIN
I'M AWARE OF THE EFFORT TO DO
THE ONE YEAR EXTENSION BUT GIVEN
THE FACT THAT IT'S MY
UNDERSTANDING THIS PROGRAM HAS
BEEN. EXTENDED IN FIVE YEAR
BLOCKS. EVER SINCE IT WAS FIRST
ESTABLISHED IN NINETEEN NINETY
YEARS SO I'M JUST WONDERING IF.
THIS ISN'T THE PLACE AND THE
TIME IN THE BUDGET TO. TO DO A
FURTHER EXTENSION OF THE MOBILE
HOME PARK MAINTENANCE INSPECTION
PROGRAM AND- AND TAKE A LOOK AT
WHATEVER FEES ARE REQUIRED IN
ORDER TO. A POLL THE PROGRAM OUT
OF A STRUCTURAL DEFICIT- AS
OPPOSED TO TRYING TO DEAL WITH
THAN THE POLICY BILL THAT'S A
RHETORICAL QUESTION I KNOW
YOU'RE NOT IN A- DANCE. WHEN WE
GET THE FINANCE PERHAPS FINANCE
CAN ANSWER IT. SO LET ME AS THIS
WHAT WHAT IF THE MOBILE HOME
PARK MAINTENANCE INSPECTION
PROGRAM GOES WAY- WHAT DOES THAT
LEAVE THE DEPARTMENT WITH IN
TERMS OF STAFFING. WELL THIS THE
POSITIONS THAT WE HAVE THESE
FIFTY TWO INSPECTORS ALSO HAVE
OTHER DUTIES IN ADDITION TO MPM.
OUR MOBILE HOME PARK MAINTENANCE
INSPECTIONS- THOSE ARE PERMANENT
EMPLOYEES WE WOULD FIND OTHER
WORK FOR THEM- IT WOULD BE A
CATASTROPHIC CHANGE I WOULD SAY
FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENT IF THE
STATE H. C. D. WAS NO LONGER
PERFORMING MOBILE HOME PARK
MAINTENANCE INSPECTIONS- THAT DO
THAT FUNCTION WOULD SHIFT. TO
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AND THEY WOULD
BE. SADDLED WITH THE BURDEN TO-
PERFORM INSPECTIONS- CLEARLY
THIS WILL BE A LEGISLATIVE
CHANGE. TO CREATE SUCH A DYNAMIC
BUT WE FEEL IT- THE DOW WOULD.
REALLY CREATE A CATASTROPHIC-
CHAIN OF EVENTS THAT WOULD.
FURTHER BURDEN LOCAL GOVERNMENT
CREATING. WIDESPREAD NUISANCE
CONDITIONS THEY WERE
UNADDRESSED. WELL LET ME JUST
LET ME AS THE STATE STEPH REPORT
INDICATES THAT- H. C. D.
CONDUCTED ONE HUNDRED NINETY
SEVEN MOBILE HOME PARK
INSPECTIONS BETWEEN JANUARY ONE
TWO THOUSAND TWENTY TWO IN
DECEMBER. THIRTY ONE- TWO
THOUSAND TWENTY TWO. THE REPORT
ALSO TELLS US THAT WE HAVE
BETWEEN MOBILE HOME PARKS AT
FOUR THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED
SEVENTY TWO AN RV PARKS IT SEVEN
HUNDRED SIXTEEN WE HAVE ABOUT
FIVE. THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND
EIGHTY EIGHT PARKS IN THE STATE
SO HOW OFTEN ARE THESE
INSPECTIONS REQUIRED. THERE
REQUIRED THAT THE CURRENT
LEGISLATION A 5% GOAL- WOULD
EQUAL. EVERY PARK WOULD BE
INSPECTED AT LEAST ONCE EVERY
TWENTY YEARS. BASED ON THE MATH-
WE EXCEED DOT BECAUSE WE'RE IN A
LOT OF PARKS IN ADDITION TO THE
AM PM WORK THAT WE DO ANNUALLY
WE ALWAYS MEET THAT OR EXCEED
THE 5% INSPECTION GOAL BUT LIKE
I SAID BEFORE WE ALSO DO
COMPLAIN INVESTIGATIONS. AND
PERMIT RELATED INSPECTIONS AND
FIELD MONITORING ACTIVITY. IN
ADDITION TO THE AM PM WORK SO
WE'RE IN MANY MORE PARTS THAN 5%
OF THE PARTS PER YEAR. NOW DOES
THE DOES THE- DEPARTMENT BELIEVE
THAT AND ONCE EVERY TWENTY YEAR
INSPECTION IS ADEQUATE. I THINK
THE WRITINGS ON THE WALL SENATOR
THAT. THERE SEEMS TO BE- CLEARLY
AN INCREASED NEED FOR.
IDENTIFICATION OF SUB STANDARD
CONDITIONS WITHIN MOBILE HOME
PARKS AND SPECIAL OCCUPANCY
PARKS UNDER OUR- ENFORCEMENT
AUTHORITY- AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE
HERE BEFORE YOU TODAY TANK
CREDIT- REQUEST ADDITIONAL
RESOURCES SO WE CAN. ENTER AND
IDENTIFY SITUATIONS EARLIER THAN
THAN BEFORE THEY BECOME A PUBLIC
NUISANCES NOW DO. WITH THESE
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES HOW OFTEN
DO YOU DO YOU PROJECT PARKS WILL
BE INSPECTED IF NOT ONCE EVERY
TWENTY YEARS. WELL I THINK WE'RE
AT LIKE I SAID BEFORE WE'RE
WE'RE ALREADY- INSPECTING. MORE
PARKS AS NOT AS PART AS PART OF
THE FORMAL MODELING PARK
MAINTENANCE INSPECTION PROGRAM-
AND THESE RESOURCES WOULDN'T
NECESSARILY INCREASE THE NUMBER
OF PARTS THAT WE INSPECT IS PART
OF THE MOBILE HOME PARK
MAINTENANCE OR MPM PROGRAM.
THESE RESOURCES ARE BEING
REQUESTED TO COVER ALL OF THE
SERVICES THAT WE PERFORM- WHICH
ARE AT EMPLOYEE HOUSING
INSPECTIONS. AND COMPLAINT
INVESTIGATIONS AND PERMIT
RELATED WORK AND WILL HELP
SUPPORT THEM PM INSPECTION
PROGRAM AS WELL BECAUSE HE'S
FIFTY TWO INSPECTORS THAT WE
EMPLOY. TO DO ALL THE DIFFERENT
KINDS OF INSPECTIONS THEY'RE NOT
. SPECIALIST IN ANY ONE CATEGORY
. WELL I'LL JUST ASK ONE MORE
SINCE THIS IS AN OVERSIGHT
HEARING THIS IS A BUDGET HEARING
BUT HOW MANY. HOW MUCH
ADDITIONAL STAFF FOR HOW MUCH
ADDITIONAL MONEY IN TERMS OF
RESOURCES WOULD YOU NEED TO
DRIVE THE INSPECTION RATE DOWN
TO ONE AND ONE OF PARK EVERY TEN
YEARS FOR EXAMPLE. I THINK THAT
IT COULD EXCEEDS WHAT I'M
PREPARED TO TALK ABOUT HERE
TODAY RELATED TO THE P. C. P.
AND I THINK IT GETS INTO. OTHER
AREAS- THERE WOULD BE
FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES FOR THE
DIVISIONS OF PROGRAMS. WE'RE
CERTAINLY OPEN TO PERFORMING
MORE INSPECTIONS BUT WOULD IT
WOULD OF COURSE NEED ADDITIONAL.
REVENUE AND POSITION OF
AUTHORITY TO DO THAT WELL I'LL
LEAVE THAT TO THE REGULAR
ATTENDEES BUT I CERTAINLY.
APPRECIATE YOUR RESPONSE WHERE
ARE WE IN THE PROCESS. DID I HIT
FOR THE RED L. A. O. YET HELLO.
EUROPE MIDDLE OUT WELL L. ELEVEN
TODAY WE DON'T HAVE ISSUES- TO
RAISE WITH THE TRAILER BILL

THANK YOU SO MUCH AND I'M HAPPY
TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THANK
YOU. L. L. WHEN I LEFT THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE AS-
DIDN'T KNOW THERE SEEMS TO BE
SOME QUESTIONS AROUND THE STATE
OPERATIONS PORTION OF THE
REQUEST AND WE WOULD JUST HAVE
TO THE LEGISLATURE THAT DOES
HAVE OPTIONS IF IT WANTS TO
ENHANCE OVERSIGHT ONE OF THOSE
BEING ON THE JAIL BC PROCESS TO
ALLOW FOR NOTIFICATION. SHOULD
THE LEGISLATURE WANT. ADDITIONAL
TRANSPARENCY IN THAT AREA. YOU
FINANCE. ENTER MY BERMAN FINANCE
AS READINGS AS A TO THIS OPERATE
AS- THE GRANT BEEN AWARDED TO
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
AUTHORIZES 15% OF THE FUNDS TO
BE USED FOR STATE OPERATIONS ARE
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROGRAM.
AS THE BUDGET BILL LANGUAGE
AUTHORIZES THE ENTIRE 15% TO BE
UTILIZED OVER THAT TIME PERIOD
OF THE- GRANT PROGRAMS AND AS
THAT APART- AS FINANCING THE
DEPARTMENT'S DEFENSE RATHER
THAN. REQUESTING ANNUAL

NECESSARILY KNOW SPECIFICALLY
AND HOW MUCH FUNDING THE
DEPARTMENT MAY NEED ON ANY YEAR-
WE'RE REQUESTING IT IT ALL UP

TRANSFER IT AS THE YEARS GO BY
UNTIL TWENTY TWENTY EIGHT. I
GATHER YOU WOULDN'T OBJECT TO.
JAIL BC NOTIFICATION. I WE CAN
CERTAINLY TAKE THAT BACK. THANK
YOU CENTERS ANY QUESTIONS. I DID
IT AGAIN. ISSUE TWENTY FOUR
CHANGES TO THE DEFINITION OF
RURAL AREAS FOR THE PURPOSE OF
HOUSING FUNDING AND CHANGES TO
THE JOB STARTED GENERAL FARM
WORKER HOUSING GRANT PROGRAM. I
GUESS IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING
HE'S ALL BEEN HOLD OPEN I PUT
ITEMS. ONCE THE START. GOOD
MORNING SENATOR ROTH MEMBERS OF
THE COMMITTEE BETTER COMPOUND
DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR LEGISLATION
AT THE PARKING OF HOUSING AND
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. THE
DEPARTMENT IS PROPOSING TO
CHANGES TO THE JOE SERNA
FARMWORKER HOUSING GRANT PROGRAM
WHICH HELPS FIND NEW
CONSTRUCTION REHABILITATION AND
ACQUISITION OF OWNER OCCUPIED
AND RENTAL UNITS FOR
AGRICULTURAL WORKERS WITH A
PRIORITY. FOR LOWER INCOME
HOUSEHOLDS. THESE CHANGES
COLLECTIVELY WILL INCREASE
EFFICIENCIES IN THE PROGRAM AND
ALLOW THE DEPARTMENT TO SERVE
MORE FARMWORKERS WHO NEED
AFFORDABLE DECENT QUALITY
AFFORDABLE HOUSING. THE FIRST
CHANGE WOULD ALLOW FOR PROFIT
AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPERS TO
APPLY FOR THE PROGRAM IN ORDER
TO BUILD MORE AFFORDABLE HOMES
FOR FARMWORKERS. MOST EACH CD
HOUSING PROGRAMS INCLUDING THE
DEPARTMENT'S FLAGSHIP PROGRAM
THE MULTI FAMILY HOUSING PROGRAM
ALLOW FOR PROFIT ENTITIES TO
APPLY FOR FUNDING SO LONG AS
THEY ARE BUILDING HOUSING THAT
MEETS THE PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY
CRITERIA. HISTORICALLY FOR
PROFIT DEVELOPERS HAVE BEEN
EXCLUDED FROM APPLYING FOR FUNDS
UNDER SERRANO. THIS PROVISION
HAS LEFT SERRANO FUNDING ON THE
TABLE WHEN IT COULD HAVE BEEN
OTHERWISE GONE TO FARMWORKER
HOUSING THAT IS DESPERATELY
NEEDED. IT IS ALSO ALLEGED
INCONSISTENCIES WITH HOW HCV
ADMINISTERS ITS SUPER NOTICES
FUNDING AVAILABILITY A PROCESS
THE BUNDLES TOGETHER THE
DEPARTMENTS FOR MAIN FUNDING
PROGRAMS SRNA THE MULTI FAMILY
HOUSING PROGRAM INFILL
INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT AND OF.
VETERANS HOUSING AND
HOMELESSNESS PROGRAMS INTO A
SINGLE PROCESS AN APPLICATION.
THIS CHANGE WOULD FIRST AND
FOREMOST RESULT IN MORE HOUSING
OPTIONS FOR FARMWORKERS
THROUGHOUT THE STATE AS IT WOULD
EXPAND THE NUMBER OF
ORGANIZATIONS THAT COULD BUILD
HOUSING FOR FARMWORKERS. IT
WOULD ALSO BRING SIR NOT IN LINE
WITH OTHER EACH CD FUNDING
PROGRAMS. THE SECOND TECHNICAL
CHANGE WOULD UPDATE THE
DEFINITION OF WORLD THE
DEPARTMENT USES IN ITS PROGRAMS
TO MORE CURRENT DEFINITION USED
BY THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT
OF AGRICULTURE FOR THEIR MULTI
FAMILY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
PROGRAMS. THE EXISTING
DEFINITION OF RURAL REFERENCES A
NOW DEFUNCT PROGRAM KNOWN AS
SECTION FIVE ONE FIVE FROM THE
US DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
THAT NO LONGER RECEIVES ANY
FUNDING. THIS HAS RESULTED IN
AMBIGUITY S. AS TO WHICH
COMMUNITIES NEED TO DEFINITION
OF RURAL. AS A RESULT EACH CITY
STAFF SPENDS CONSIDERABLE TIME
DETERMINING WHETHER OR NOT A
PROJECT MEETS THE ROLE
DEFINITION. HCD HAS BEEN ADVISED
BY THE US DEPARTMENT OF
AGRICULTURE CHOOSE THE
DEFINITION BEFORE YOU TODAY
WHICH WILL NOT CHANGE WHICH
WORLD COMMUNITIES GET ACCESS TO
FUNDING BUT WILL INSTEAD
ELIMINATE GUESSWORK IN
DETERMINING WHICH COMMUNITIES
MEET THE WORLD DEFINITION. I'D
BE HAPPY TO ANSWER YOUR
QUESTIONS THANK YOU. EARLIER
NOT. ONLY ARE NOT COMING
STRAIGHT ON THIS ITEM AT THIS
TIME BUT IT. ENGINE MERGED
BERMAN FINANCE TO SO WITH
RESPECT TO THE WORLD DEFINITION
AND SIMPLY GONNA MAKE IT EASIER
FOR YOU ALL TO DETERMINE. WHAT
PLACES QUALIFY THAT'S CORRECT.
WITH RESPECT TO THE SORT OF
FARMWORKER HOUSING- THE PROGRAM
WHAT'S THE TAKE RATE IS IT BEEN
UNDER SUBSCRIBED OVERSUBSCRIBED
. IT HAS BEEN UNDER SUBSCRIBED-
IT WAS FOLDED INTO OUR SUPER
NOTICE OF FUNDING AVAILABILITY
PROCESS- WITH THE LATEST FUNDING
ROUND THAT RELEASED ACT A TOTAL
OF SEVEN HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLARS- INITIALLY. ON PAPER THE
PROGRAM HAD BEEN OVERSUBSCRIBED
SLIGHTLY THERE WAS EIGHTY
MILLION MADE AVAILABLE WE HAD
EIGHTY EIGHT MILLION WORTH OF
APPLICATIONS. ONCE WE LOOKED AT
THE ELIGIBLE APPLICANTS IT
TURNED OUT THAT NINE OF THE
APPLICANTS WERE FOR PROFIT
ENTITIES THAT- WERE
AUTOMATICALLY DISQUALIFIED
BECAUSE OF THIS PROHIBITION ON
ALLOWING FOR PROFIT SCHOOL WHY.
AT THE END OF THE DAY- FROM THAT
EIGHTY MILLION BE MADE AVAILABLE
WE ARE ABLE TO AWARD FORTY NINE
POINT FIVE MILLION BUT WE STILL
HAVE THIRTY POINT FIVE MILLION
OUTSTANDING. SO WITH THE CHANGE
TO ALLOW FOR PROFITS TO APPLY.
YOUR EXPECT BE CERTAINLY.
SUFFICIENTLY SUBSCRIBED OR
OVERSUBSCRIBED WE DEFINITELY
EXPECT AN INCREASE IN UPTAKE AND
WE HOPE THAT THROUGH ADDITIONAL
MARKETING WE WOULD GET IT
OVERSUBSCRIBED IT HAS BEEN THE
TREND THAT ALL OF OUR FUNDING
PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN SIGNIFICANTLY
OVERSUBSCRIBED AND IN FACT THIS.
SUPER NOTICE OF FUNDING
AVAILABILITY WAS OVERSUBSCRIBED
BY FIVE TWO ONE. THANK YOU
COLLEAGUES ANY QUESTIONS
CENTERED OVER HERE. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH MISTER CHAIR- COUPLE
QUESTIONS- WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT- AND REYES THIS IS MY
PERSONAL PREFERENCE SO OBVIOUSLY
WE NEED. TO DISCUSS IT FURTHER
WE CAN DO THAT BUT- D. HE HAS.
THERE IS THERE ARE A NUMBER OF
ISSUES- RELATED TO THE READ. THE
REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF
PEOPLE THAT ARE WORKING IN THE
FARM FARM WORKING. COMMUNITY
MOSTLY AGING OUT AND- SOME OF
THE IMMIGRATION ISSUES- THERE IS
A NEED FOR WORKERS IN
AGRICULTURE. AND SO THE H. TWO
A. PROGRAM- WHICH IS A FEDERAL
PROGRAM THAT BRINGS AND WORKERS.
TO WORK THIS SEASON AND THEN TO
GO BACK HOME. HAS RESULTED IN A
PUSH OUT. OF FARMWORKERS THAT
LIVE IN THE COMMUNITY AS-
FARMERS BRING IN H. TWO A.
WORKERS TO DO THAT THE WORK AND
ARE REQUIRED TO HOUSE THEM IN
OTHER WORDS WE PROVIDE HOUSING
TO THE H. TWO A. WORKERS AND
EVERYBODY ELSE CAN KIND HOUSING
AS COME CATCHES COME CAN'T. AND
SO ON AS A CONSEQUENCE SOME
APARTMENTS HAVE BEEN BOUGHT AND
THEIR DAD RESIDENTS EVICTED. AND
THEIR USE FOR H. TWO A. WORKERS
SO I'D HATE TO SEE THE JOE SERNA
PROGRAM BE UTILIZED TO HOUSE H.
TWO A. WORKERS WHEN WE HAVE
INCUMBENT WORKERS THAT- ARE
LIVING IN REALLY OVERCROWDED
HOUSING SITUATION THE. REASON
THE CODE RED. JUST WENT. THANK
HAD SAID YOU DAVIS IMPACT ON THE
FARM WORKER COMMUNITIES WHEN IF
THEY WERE CENTRAL WORKERS TO THE
ELEVEN HAVE OVERCROWDED SO IF
SOMEONE GOT SICK AND YOU SAY YOU
HAVE TO QUARANTINE OR YOU HAVE
TO. NOT BE AROUND ANYBODY WAS
IMPOSSIBLE THEY TAKE IT HOME AND
EVERYBODY WOULD GET SIX HOURS H.
TWO A. AND JOE SERRANO WHENEVER
I WANTED. I AGREE THAT IT'S A
GOOD IDEA THAT ALLOW THE PRIVATE
MARKET TO ACCESS THE FUNDS. I'M
AND NUMBER TWO WOULD BE- I'M NOT
SURE I UNDERSTAND HOW. THE I
ABSOLUTELY AGREE THAT USDA
WHETHER IT'S A DEFUNCT SECTION
OR NOT THEY THEY. THEY- IF I IN
RURAL NARROW IT TECH. THAT THE
LAST TIME I SAW THERE. THERE
STATUTE IT WAS. FIVE THOUSAND IN
A COMMUNITY LAST MONTH WE HAVE
VERY FEW CITIES THAT ARE FIVE
THOUSAND OR LESS. A BIG COULD
QUALIFY FOR USD FUNDING- WHETHER
WE I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT OUR
RURAL DEFINITION IS BROAD ENOUGH
TO CAPTURE THE COMMUNITIES THAT-
THAT WE THINK OF AS RAW. HOW
WHAT HOW. HOW DOES HOW DOES THE
DEFINITION BEING INTERPRETER HOW
ITS POWER WE OPERATIONALIZE YET.
THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION.
CENTER COMING AT ALL- WE'VE
WE'VE ASKED HER PRO STAFF LOOK
INTO THE SEVER TIMES NOW AND
THEY ASSURED ME THAT THERE IS NO
MATERIAL CHANGE IN WHICH
COMMUNITIES QUALIFY AS WERE ALL.
THE SAME COMMUNITIES THAT
CURRENTLY MEET THE REAL
DEFINITION WILL STILL MEET THAT
DEFINITION- IN THE STATUTORY
THEN THE STATUTORY CHANGES THE
WERE PROPOSING. THE POPULATION
THRESHOLD REMAINS AT FORTY
THOUSAND- FORTY THOUSAND PEOPLE-
THAT HASN'T CHANGED WHAT HAS
BEEN ADDED IS JUST SOME UPDATED
TERMINOLOGY LIKE FOR INSTANCE
THERE ARE REFERENCES TO THE
DECENNIAL CENSUS ABOUT THE DATA
CAN BE UPDATED PERIODICALLY-
THEIR REFERENCES TO. SPECIFIC
GROUPINGS IN THE SENSES THAT
WEREN'T IN THE INITIAL STATUTES
SO EXISTING STATUTE REFERENCES
CENSUS TRACT IN THE CHANGES WE
REFERENCE CENSUS BLOCK GROUPS-
AND THERE'S A COUPLE OF OTHER
TERMS THAT ARE NOT COMING TO ME
BUT JUST. IT'S VERY TECHNICAL
THOSE CHANGES- ALSO USDA AND THE
AND THE CENSUS BOTH HAVE- MAPS
THAT IDENTIFY WHICH COMMUNITIES
NEED TO RURAL DEFINITION AND SO-
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT ANY
PARTICULAR COMMUNITY WOULD BE
HAPPY TO. LOOK THAT UP AND
PROVIDE YOU WITH A RESPONSE
THANK YOU THAT AT THE TOP OF THE
IT IS THE NUMBER- IS HELPFUL IT
COMMUNITIES FORTY THOUSAND OR
LESS- AND THAT WOULD BE CITIES
AND UNINCORPORATED AREAS AND SO
THAT. IT'S HELPFUL JUST TO KIND
OF HAVE A SENSE THERE ARE LOTS
OF COMMUNITIES THAT ARE LARGER
THAT ARE STILL. BOB WHAT ONE
WOULD CONSIDER RURAL BUT I'M
REALLY CONCERNED WITH THE
SMALLEST THE SMALLEST
COMMUNITIES. CANNOT ACCESS- GRAY
BECAUSE THEY VERY VERY FEW STAFF
MY- I'M ONE CITY. THEIR BUDGET
IS SET HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS
AND- YEAH THIS STUFF FOR THEM.
THANK YOU CENTER SURNAME OF.
THANK YOU RICHARD. MY QUESTION
DOESN'T GO TO THE- ESSENCE OF
THE PROPOSAL ITSELF IT GOES THE
WAY WERE HANDLING IT- LAST WEEK
WEEK BEFORE COUPLE WEEKS AGO
WHENEVER IT WAS- WE APPROVED-
WELL WE REPUBLICANS DID NOT
ABOUT A HUNDRED AND- TEN OR
TWENTY. EMPTY VEHICLES FOR
TRAILER BILLS- WHEN I WAS HERE
IN THE ASSEMBLY BEFORE- I WAS
VICE CHAIR OF THE BUDGET AND I
MEAN TENER TWENTY TRAILER BILLS
WOULD HAVE DONE A LOT- I AM
TROUBLED BY THE LEVEL OF POLICY
DECISIONS FOR MAKING AS PART OF
THE BUDGET. THESE DAYS AND THIS
IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF IT AND I
THINK- CENTER KABHI ARROWS
QUESTIONS KIND OF GO TO THAT.
WELL IT MAY BE THAT THE VAST
MAJORITY OF THE CAPITAL
COMMUNITY IS WATCHING THIS
HEARING AND RAPT ATTENTION. I
RATHER DOUBT IT. AND THIS IS
REALLY A POLICY ISSUE. ARE THAT
REALLY SHOULD GO THROUGH POLICY
COMMITTEE SO THAT OTHER SENATORS
AND ASSEMBLY REPRESENTATIVES WHO
REPRESENT RURAL AREAS WE HAVE
THE SAME. KIND OF QUESTIONS I
AND I BELIEVE IT'S WHOLLY
INAPPROPRIATE. FOR IT TO BE
INCLUDED IN. IN OUR OUR TRAILER
BILL LANGUAGE WHEN IT SHOULD BE
DELIBERATED AS A POLICY ISSUE.
NOW THAT'S A STATEMENT ON MY
PART BUT I'D BE INTERESTED TO
HEAR YOUR PERSPECTIVE ON THAT
PARTICULARLY THE DEPARTMENT- OF
FINANCE. THANK YOU SENATOR I'M
WE ARE NOT THAT I MEAN THERE ARE
A NUMBER OF- PROGRAMS THAT-
TRAILER BILLS ARE PROPOSALS THAT
ARE PROPOSED BUDGET PROCESS
SPECIFICALLY AS IT RELATES TO.
THE JOB CENTRE FARMWORKER
HOUSING GRANT PROGRAM- THERE IS
THERE IS FUNDING AND IN THE
CURRENT YEAR FOR THIS PROGRAM SO
WE DO BELIEVE THAT THERE'S A
BUDGETARY TAXES HERE. THERE'S A
BUDGETARY NEXUS WITH. A
SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF POLICY
BILLS THAT WE DEAL WITH ONE
COULD ARGUE MAYBE EVEN ALL.
THERE ARE LOTS OF. YEAH NUMBER.
ONE REALLY GOOD QUESTIONS BUT
YOU BROKE MY HEART THEY TELL ME
I WAS GONNA GET GOOD MARKET
SHARE IF I STEPPED IN THE CHAIR
OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE. SORRY OKAY
. LET'S MOVE ON TO- ISSUE TWENTY
TWO FORTY FIVE WE DO HAVE ISSUE
EIGHTEEN TO GET TO- WITH A LARGE
GROUP OF THE PANELISTS THERE BUT
WE'RE GONNA TRY TO GET THROUGH.
TWENTY TWO FORTY FIVE
EXPEDITIOUSLY CALIFORNIA HOUSING
FINANCE AGENCY ISSUED TWENTY
FIVE IS THE FIRST CALIFORNIA
DREAM FOR ALL PROGRAM REDUCTION
WITH RESTORATION TRIGGER. MUST
BE MS MARTIN. YES GOOD MORNING
SHERATON MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE ALAN MARTIN DIRECTOR
OF HOMEOWNERSHIP FOR THE
CALIFORNIA HOUSING FINANCE
AUTHORITY. PLEASE PROCEED. AND
YOUR MARCH DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
SO AS PREVIOUSLY NOTED THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET DOES PROJECT
AND EXACTS OF TWENTY BILLION
DOLLAR DEFICIT SO IN ORDER TO
BALANCE THE BUDGET THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET INCLUDES
VARIOUS ONE TIME- REDUCTIONS TWO
ONE TIMER LIMITED TERM GENERAL
FUND FUNDING AND SPECIFICALLY AS
IT RELATES TO THIS PROGRAM. FIVE
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS WAS
APPROPRIATED IN THE TWENTY
TWENTY TO BUDGET FOR TWENTY TWO
TWENTY THREE THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET PROPOSES A TWO HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLAR REDUCTION FOR
THIS PROGRAM TO BRING THE TOTAL
TO THREE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS
. HELLO THAT'S WHAT I LESS LMAO
THE COMPANY PREVIOUSLY APPLY
HERE AS WELL RELATED TO-
ANTICIPATION AT THE RESTORATION
COMPLAINED ASSOCIATED ALSO WOULD
LIKELY NOT TO BE ABLE TO MOVE
FORWARD GIVEN THAT ARE EXECUTED
CONDITION OF THE STATE BUDGET.
THANK YOU. OKAY COLLEAGUES I
THINK BECAUSE THIS WAS A PROGRAM
THAT. CENTER COMING OUT ARROWS
ASKING QUESTION ABOUT BEFORE ANY
QUESTIONS ON THIS PARTICULAR
ISSUE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH- YES
THE QUESTION I HAD WAS- THIS
THIS SAM LOOKS LIKE IT WAS
TREMENDOUSLY SUCCESSFUL IN IN
ROLLING OUT AND- I'M- DO WE HAVE
AN IDEA OF WHERE- GEOGRAPHICALLY
THAT THESE HOMES THAT WERE
PURCHASED. WERE NUMBER ONE AND
NUMBER TWO IS- WHAT WAS THAT-
SUBSIDY REQUIRED TO GET PEOPLE
WHAT WAS THE AFTER MEDIAN SUB
SUBSIDY REQUIRED TO GET. OR OR
THE RANGE FROM THIS TO THIS I'M
I'M I'M I'M- I'M- INTERESTED IN
UNDERSTANDING HOW FAR WE NEED TO
SUBSIDIZE. A HOME IN ORDER TO
GET PEOPLE IN FOR THE FIRST TIME
AND I'M WONDERING IF IT'S- AND I
WOULD EXPECTED BE DIFFERENT BY
REGION. AND AND I'M CONCERNED
THAT IT'S IT- LACK OF A BETTER
WORD IS SOLD OUT SO QUICKLY
THAT- THAT WE DON'T HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY. THAT THEIR MAIDEN
NAME WE MAY NEED TO MAKE SOME
CHANGES SO THAT LAST LAST
RESOURCE TO COMMUNITIES HAVE THE
ABILITY TO ACCESS- RESOURCES AS
WELL LAST RESOURCE LAST-
INFORMED. THANK YOU SO MUCH OF
THE QUESTION- SO TO BEGIN WITH
ALSO TO START WITH THE SECOND
PART OF YOUR QUESTION AND THEN
MOVE TO THE FIRST PART YOUR
QUESTION SO THIS PROGRAM OFFERED
TWENTY UP 220% DOWN PAYMENT
ASSISTANCE IN THE FORM OF A
SHARED APPRECIATION LOAN. SO A
HOME BUYER PERSPECTIVE FIRST
TIME HOME BUYER WHO MEET CERTAIN
INCOME LIMITS COULD OF AND TAKE
OUT A DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE
LOAN FOR UP TO TWENTY PERCENT.
OF THE HOME PURCHASE PRICE WHEN
THAT HOME BUYER THEN GOES TO
SELL OR TRANSFER THAT HOME THEY
WILL REPAY THE ORIGINAL
PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THE LOAN
PLUS A COMMENSURATE SHARE OF THE
APPRECIATED. APPRECIATION IN THE
VALUE OF THE HOME SO THEY TOOK
OUT A 20% DOWN PAYMENT
ASSISTANCE LONG THEY WOULD PAY
BACK THAT TWENTY PERCENT. PLUS
20% OF THE INCREASED VALUE OF
THE HOME AND SO THAT IS THE
MECHANISM BY WHICH THE PROGRAM
IS EXPECTED TO RECYCLE FUNDS AT
A LEVEL THAT IT CAN THEN HELP
FUTURE HOME BUYERS. AND YOU'RE
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT THAT THE
PROGRAM FUNDS WE- LAUNCHED THE
PROGRAM ON MARCH TWENTY SEVENTH
AND COMMITTED ALL OF ALL
AVAILABLE FUNDS WITHIN AN ELEVEN
DAY PERIOD- SO THE DATA THAT WE
HAVE WITH REGARD TO GEOGRAPHIC
DISTRIBUTION- IS VERY
PRELIMINARY. THESE THIS IS
REFLECTIVE OF FUNDS HAVE BEEN
COMMITTED EVERY EVERY LOAN THAT
WAS MADE IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING
EIGHT COMPLIANCE REVIEW PROCESS
IN HOUSE SO WE DO EXPECT TO SEE
SOME SHIFTS IN THESE NUMBERS AS
CAL HFA. PURCHASES THOSE LOANS-
YOU KNOW UNDERTAKES A COMPLIANCE
REVIEW AND THEN PURCHASES THE
SOCKS AND BUT WHAT I CAN TELL
YOU IS WE SAW THE CENTRAL VALLEY
REGION LEAD THE WAY IN TERMS OF
THE NUMBER OF HOUSEHOLDS THAT
RECEIVED ASSISTANCE. FROM THIS
PROGRAM- SO THEY WERE RECEIVED
ABOUT 21% OF THE I COMPARED TO
THEIR- OF THE- CALIFORNIA STATE
POPULATION WHICH IS ABOUT 11%
SO. THE CENTRAL VALLEY HAS
ALWAYS BEEN- SORT OF A STALWART
FOR KELLY CAFE IN TERMS OF OUR
DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE WE SEE A
LOT OF OUR DOWN PAYMENT
ASSISTANCE- TYPICALLY GOING TO
THE CENTRAL VALLEY AND THE
INLAND EMPIRE REGION. WE DID SEE
INTERESTINGLY- A SIGNIFICANT
SHIFT TO SOME HIGH COST AREAS OF
THE STATE SO WE DID SEE THE BAY
AREA START TO COME IN AND MEET
IT'S KIND OF. PRO RATA SHARE OF
THE POPULATION IN TERMS OF
HOUSEHOLDS THAT WE'RE ABLE TO
HELP AND SO WE WERE INTERESTED
IN SEEING THAT SHIFT BECAUSE I
THINK AS WE ALL KNOW THERE ARE
MANY MANY ESSENTIAL WORKERS IN
THE HIGH COST AREAS LIKE THE BAY
AREA. SAN DIEGO THE CENTRAL
COAST ORANGE COUNTY- YOU KNOW
THERE'S A LOT OF NURSES A LOT OF
TEACHERS A LOT OF SOCIAL WORKERS
THAT STRUGGLE TO FIND HOMES AND
ACCESS HOMEOWNERSHIP. IN THE
COMMUNITIES WHERE THEY WORK- SO
WE WERE GLAD TO SEE THAT WE WERE
ABLE TO HELP LOW AND MODERATE
INCOME HOME BUYERS. IN THOSE
AREAS AND TO SEE- SOME INCREASE
IN OUR DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE
GOING TO THOSE AREAS. AND SO
WHEN YOU SAY- IT IT WAYS OR IN
INCOME. BOB REQUIREMENT IN TERMS
OF HOW THE GRANT WAS. LIFE YES
AND SO AND I IT IS A LOAN- SO
THE FUNDS WILL BE REPAID- BUT
THE INCOME LIMITS ARE BASED ON
KELLY JEFF HAS INCOME LIMITS
WHICH ARE ROUGHLY A HUNDRED AND
50% OF THE AREA MEDIAN INCOME.
THAT VARIES FROM COUNTY TO
COUNTY I DO WANT TO MENTION THAT
THERE ALSO IS AN ADDITIONAL
SOCIAL EQUITY COMPONENT TO. THE
PROGRAM WHEREBY BORROWERS THAT
ARE UNDER 80% AM I RECEIVE A
MORE FAVORABLE APPRECIATION
SHARE SO IN OTHER WORDS. THERE
IS A- ELEMENT OF THE PROGRAM
THAT SEEKS TO ACCELERATE. EQUITY
BUILDING FOR LOWER INCOME
HOUSEHOLDS THAT BENEFIT FROM
THIS PROGRAM IT'S GREAT THANK
YOU SO MUCH I APPRECIATE THAT
INFORMATION AND- AND APPRECIATE
THAT. KIND OF HOW IT'S BEEN
ORGANIZED I THINK IT'S GOING TO
BE A GREAT ADDITION. THANK
CENTER SANDHILL. I'M THIS WAS A
PART OF THE TWENTY TWO BUDGET
ACT WAS A PART OF THE GOVERNOR'S
SIDE JANUARY THE PROPOSAL FOR
THE TWENTY TWO BUDGET. RIGHT NOW
IT WAS NOT SO IT WAS EIGHT.
PRIORITY YEAH I WAS ULTIMATELY
INCLUDED IN THE TWENTY TWENTY TO
BUDGET ACT THAT THE LEGISLATURE
PASSED IN THE GOVERNOR YES. AND
SO- ON MY PREVIOUS SIMILAR
QUESTION I SAID ONE DOES NOT A
TREND MAKE BUT- WHICH TWO WERE
GETTING THEIR- THE CENTER. LET'S
SIR THANK YOU BIRDS OF IMPORTANT
PROGRAM I THINK IT WOULD BE
IMPORTANT TO SEE WHAT IT LOOKS
LIKE WHEN WE'RE ABLE TO SCALE IT
UP. AND I THINK SCALING UP IS
PROBABLY GONNA BE PRETTY- AND IN
ORDER TO ALLOW THE REVOLVING
PIECE- TO WORK PROPERLY SO I
LOOK FORWARD TO. WATCHING THIS
GROW PROBABLY NOT IN THIS JOB
BUT- IN MY NEXT LIFE HOPEFULLY
HONORS- OF ISSUE TWENTY SIX SAYS
WE'RE PROCESS READ WELLING UNIT
GRANTS REDUCTION WITH
RESTORATION OFFERED. MORNING
AGAIN ENTER MARC BERMAN OF
FINANCE- SO AS PREVIOUSLY
MENTIONED THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET
FORECASTS AND EXCESS OF TWENTY
BILLION DOLLAR BUDGET DEFICIT SO
AND BEFORE YOU IS IT IS IT
SIMILAR TO THE DREAM FOR ALL
PROGRAM AND CAL HOME IS A ONE
TIME- REDUCTION TO ONE TIME
FUNDING AT SPECIFICALLY FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS IN THE CURRENT
YEAR. FOUR EIGHT XS THREE

HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS. I'M
ALL THREE HAVE RESTORATION
TRIGGERING FOR ONCE AGAIN- WE
WOULD ANTICIPATE THAT GOING INTO
A FACT. OVER ALL OF THE
LEGISLATURE THINKS ABOUT
ADDRESSING THE FIFTH PROBLEM
COULD MAKE A PACKAGE OF DECLARE
DIFFERENT IS THE FROM A- I'M
ULTIMATELY JUST LOOK TO BOUNCE
THE BUDGET IN THE DECIDES TO-
MAKE A DIFFERENT LEVEL OF
PRODUCTION. AND LOWER THAN
PROPOSED BY THE IN THIS ASKED
WEEK. THANK YOU. THANK YOU A-
LEAVE OUT OF THE- COLLEAGUES ANY
QUESTIONS. WE JUST CURIOUS DO WE
KNOW- HOW MANY. EIGHTY USED BEEN
CONSTRUCTED AS A RESULT OF. OUR
EFFORTS. SENATOR THANK YOU SO
MUCH FOR THE QUESTION SO. D.
EIGHTY YOU GRANT IS FOR EACH-
PRE DEVELOPMENT COSTS ASSOCIATED
WITH CONSTRUCTING AN EDU SO
THOSE FUNDS HAVE GONE IN REALLY
AT THE VERY OUTSET OF THE
PROJECT- AND AS I'M SURE YOU'RE
AWARE THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
FOR AN EIGHTY YOU IS TYPICALLY A
TWELVE TO EIGHTEEN MONTHS AND-
EVEN LONGER SOMETIMES NOT A MUCH
THE CONSTERNATION OF MANY OF OUR
OF OUR WORST. AND ONE OF THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THE EIGHTY YOU
GRANT IS THAT THE FUNDS BE
DEPOSITED IN A MANAGED
CONSTRUCTION ESCROW SO
CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS IS
MONITORED. AND WE ENSURE THAT
THE EIGHTY YOU ACTUALLY GETS
BUILT SO WHILE WE ONLY RECEIVED
A HANDFUL OF CERTIFICATE. OF
OCCUPANCY TO DATE AND WE DO
EXPECT THAT THE EIGHTY GRANT
PROGRAM WILL RESULT IN THE
ACTUAL PRODUCTION OF TWENTY FOUR
HUNDRED EIGHTY EIGHTH. WELL I
HOPE SO AND I THINK THAT'S AND
THAT'S CERTAINLY THE GOLD WILL
BE ATTENDED I'VE ANECDOTALLY
HEARD STORIES FROM SOME OF MY
FRIENDS IN THE LEAST ONE OF MY
COLLEAGUES IN ONE CASE. LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS FOR EXAMPLE
REQUIRE THE INSTALLATION OF A
SPRINKLER SYSTEM IN IT IN AN
EIGHTY YEAR WITH GREAT EXPENSE
SO I THINK WE'LL HAVE TO SEE HOW
THIS ALL. LAYS OUT LESS- THE
STATE BEING AN OBSTACLE AND IN
SOME CASES MORE LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS PERHAPS FOR RYAN
VARIETY OF ADMIRABLE REASONS
BUT- WE'LL SEE HOW IT WORKS- NO
FURTHER QUESTIONS LET'S MOVE ON
TO ISSUE TWENTY SEVEN
SEPARATING. L. A. S. H. F. A.
FROM H. C. MORNING AND YOU MARCH
WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE-
THIS PROPOSAL SEPARATES THE
CALIFORNIA HOUSING AND FINANCE
AGENCY FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF
HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT. ALSO KNOWN AS H. ET
IN COLLEGE OF FE AND ESTABLISHES
COLLEGE AFFAIRS AN ENTITY UNDER
THE BUSINESS AND CONSUMER
SERVICES AND HOUSING AGENCY
SIMILAR TO EACH CITY OR THE
OTHER ENTITIES THAT ARE
CURRENTLY UNDER B. C. S. H. SUCH
AS- DEPARTMENT CONSUMER AFFAIRS-
THIS. COURAGE ACKNOWLEDGED RAINY
CITY WERE SEPARATE ENTITIES
HOWEVER UNDER GOVERNOR BROWN'S
GOVERNMENT REORGANIZATION PLAN
NUMBER TO COLLEGE OF A WAS
PLACED WITHIN EACH CD- ED. FOR
ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES THE TWO
DEPARTMENTS ARE SEPARATE FROM
EACH OTHER THEY DON'T SHARE ANY
FUNDING SOURCES- ANY
ADMINISTRATIVE RESOURCES OR
ANYTHING SO REVIEW THIS STRICTLY
AS A TECHNICAL PROPOSAL TO ALLOW
COLLEGE AFRAID TO BE DISPLAYED.
AT BUDGETARY EARLY SEPARATELY
FROM EACH CITY- AND ALSO TO EASE
ADMINISTRATIVE BURDENS WHEN
THERE ARE GENERAL FUND
INVESTMENTS SPECIFICALLY TO
COLLEGE OF A SUCH AS THE DREAM
FOR ALL PROGRAM AND EIGHTY YOU
PROGRAM WHICH YOU JUST HEARD
ABOUT. THANK YOU HELLO. WHEN I
LEFT LA- NO ISSUES TRAITS FOR
THE COMMITTEE ON THIS ITEM.
THANK YOU COLLEAGUES BHAJANS.
CONCERNS WITH. SERRA CABALLERO
JUST JUST TO BE CLEAR-
SEPARATING. THE TWO DOESN'T
INCUR ANY COST. NO IT IS NOT
BECAUSE THE TWO ENTITIES OPERATE
ENTIRELY INDEPENDENTLY TELOGEN
PHASE FUNDED BY FEES ON THEIR
LOAN PRODUCTS IN EACH CITY IS
FUNDED BY. GENERAL FUND ADDITION
TO THEIR SPECIAL FUNDS AND
FEDERAL FUNDS SO THEY ARE THEY
ARE ENTIRELY SEPARATE. IT REASON
ASK QUESTIONS ANYTIME YOU YOU
CHANGE THE NAME OF AN
ORGANIZATION THAT. HAS A LOT OF
MONEY ALTHOUGH WE DON'T TALK
ABOUT IT IT'S- NEW LETTER HEAD
IT'S A NEW WEBSITE IT'S A NEW I
MEAN IT'S EVERYTHING IS SO I
JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT.
WHATEVER WE'RE DOING IT'S A
TECHNICAL ISSUE RELATED THAT
KIND OF THE BUDGET COUNTY AS
OPPOSED TO. YOU KNOW. SOMETHING
THAT. PROCESS A LOT OF MY AT A
TIME WHEN WE ARE MEET DO THAT.
YES EXACTLY THEN WE ARE GOING TO
SPEND ANY. WITH THIS- IF
ANYTHING I MAYBE SOME YOU KNOW
MINOR COST SAVINGS IT SAID
MINISTRY TO EASE. THANK YOU ALL
RIGHT SO NOW. TO OUR FINAL A
DISCUSSION ITEM ISSUE NUMBER.
EIGHTEEN ABILITY FOR STATE
HOMELESSNESS SPENDING. GENERALLY
. I WILL SAY AT THE OUTSET THAT
THIS IS A VERY VERY IMPORTANT-
ISSUED TO ALL OF US AND OUR
CONSTITUENTS AROUND THE STATE.
OF OBVIOUSLY. THIS IS A BUDGET
SUB COMMITTEE AND RECENT BUDGET
SPENDING HAS BEEN ROBUST.
PROPOSALS HAVE BEEN ROBUST AS
THEY SHOULD BE- BUT WE HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY AND A RESPONSIBILITY
OF COURSE TO RE EXAMINE. HOW
THESE INVESTMENTS ARE PERFORMING
IN THE CONSIDER MAKING
ADJUSTMENTS. IN HOW THESE
PROGRAMS WORK AS THOSE
ADJUSTMENTS APPEAR TO BE
NECESSARY THE BOTTOM LINE
OBVIOUSLY IS. AS WITH ALL BUDGET
LINE ITEMS- BUDGET EXPENDITURES.
I SHOULD AND MUST LEAD TO
RESULTS SO I WANT TO THANK YOU
ALL FOR JOINING US TODAY I LOOK
FORWARD TO THE CONVERSATION-
ROSS WE KNOW YOU ARE SO. LET'S
START WITH MY- LEFT YOU'RE RIGHT
NEXT AND HAVE YOU WILL IDENTIFY
YOURSELVES FOR THE RECORD PLEASE
WE RESOLVE OUR BLANKETS. THANKS
FOR JOINING US SIR. THE MORNING
MILES WHITE S. IN SECTOR THAT
BUSINESS CONSUMERS HOUSING
AGENCY. THANK YOU YES MA'AM THE
MORNING MEGAN MARSHALL EXECUTIVE
OFFICER FOR CALIFORNIA
INTERAGENCY COUNCIL ON
HOMELESSNESS. WEST. THANK YOU
SENATOR I'LL BEGIN AT LEISURE
EDITOR ROSS THAT MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE FILES WHY IT JUST ON
BEHALF THAT CALIFORNIA ENERGY
COUNCIL ON HOMELESSNESS. SO AS A
RESULT SHARED IN THE COMMITTEE
BACKGROUNDER REALLY BEGINNING OF
THIS YEAR THE ADMINISTRATION
SIGNALS INTENT TO PARTS
LEGISLATURE ON AN OVERALL
ACCOUNTABILITY FRAMEWORK. A
FRAMEWORK THAT REALLY FOCUSED ON
ON TWO DISTINCT AREAS FIRST IS
THE FOCUS ON ACTIONS ACTIONS
UNDERLIE CREASE HOUSING
PRODUCTION AND THE STRATEGIC
DELIVERY OF SERVICES. SECOND
COMPONENT IS REALLY ROOTED IN
REGIONAL COORDINATION SO A
COLLECTIVE EFFORT FOR US TO
CONTINUE TO LEVERAGE OUR
RESOURCES IN A COORDINATED.
FASHION FIRST TRANSACTIONS. AS
WAS REALLY DISCUSSED IN IN
ADDITIONAL DETAIL IN THE
BACKGROUND OR THE STATE'S MADE
SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENTS IN
HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS OVER
THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. D.
EFFORT IS RESULTED IN DIRECTLY
FINANCING SIXTY THOUSAND BERMAN
AFFORDABLE UNITS FOR SORT OF
HOUSING SUPPORTS AN ADDITIONAL
TWENTY FOUR THOUSAND THAT BEEN
AWARDED AND ARE IN THE PIPELINE.
THESE RESOURCES HAVE BEEN
STRATEGICALLY PAIRED S. O.
CAPITAL INVESTMENTS ALONG WITH
FLEXIBLE STAY HOMELESSNESS EIGHT
THROUGH THE HAVE PROGRAM FOR
EXAMPLE THAT PROVIDES THAT LONG
TERM COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH THAT
WE NOW LEADS TO THE BEST
OUTCOMES AND SUSTAINABLE
OUTCOMES AS WELL. WHEN WE SEE
EVALUATE THE PROGRESS YOU'VE
MADE BETWEEN TWENTY TWENTY
TWENTY TWENTY TWO THE STATE ES
LED TO A- INCREASE AT HALF THE
RATE IN A SHELTER ALMOST AS
COMPARED TO THE NATIONAL
AVERAGE. WHEN WE LOOK AT THAT
PROGRESS ALONG WITH THESE
INVESTMENTS WE ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE
THAT MORE MUST BE DONE AND MORE
THAT MUST BE DONE ULTIMATELY IN
THE UNDERLYING ACTIONS THAT WE
CONTINUE TO. PURSUE WHETHER IT'S
PLATES TO OUR FRONT END EFFORTS
ON HOUSING PLANNING OR
PRODUCTION AND EVEN WITH
ENFORCEMENT. SO IN LARGE PART
WHEN WE LOOK AT A FRAMEWORK TO
PARTNER WITH LEGISLATURE ON
FOCUSING ON THE REAL TANGIBLE
ACTIONS THAT LEADS THE OUTCOMES
WE ALL HOPE TO WITNESS. THIS
EFFORT REALLY. FOCUSES ON D. S.
REGIONAL RESPONSIBLY SEEN SOME
INITIAL PROGRESS AND DO OUR
EFFORTS WITH THE HELP PROGRAM.
THIS REGIONAL RESPONSES REALLY
LEAD TO A INCREASE OF THE FIRST
ROUND 11% OF APPLICANTS THAT
APPLIED JOINTLY. THIS MOST
RECENT ROUND WE SAW A COLLECTIVE
34% SO AGAIN SOME PROGRESS AT
THE END OF THE DAY EVEN WHEN
THE- APPLICANTS FOR THESE
PROGRAMS. DO NOT PLAY JOINTLY WE
STILL REQUIRE LEVEL CORONATION
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND
UNDERLYING OUTCOME GOALS THAT
TRANSCEND THE REGION AS A WHOLE
SO THIS LEVEL OF CORONATION TIED
TO THE RESOURCES THAT WE'RE
INVESTING. ALONG WITH FEDERAL
LOCAL RESOURCES THAT ARE BROUGHT
TO BEAR AS WELL ABLE TO REALLY
STRATEGICALLY DIRECT THESE
RESOURCES AND LEVERAGE THE-
ADVANTAGES AND RESOURCES AT. AS
A WHOLE IN A TARGETED FASHION.
SO ULTIMATELY WE SEE THERE THE
MINISTER. FRAMEWORK AGAIN A
FOCUS FIRST ON ACTIONS AND A
SECOND FOCUS ON A REGIONAL
FRAMEWORK IS ARE ALL EFFORTS TO
ME NOW ARE ROOTED IN THE BEST
PRACTICES IN PROGRESS WE'VE MADE
TO DATE BUT ALSO TRYING TO FIND.
WAYS TO ACCELERATE THAT PROGRESS
IN A UNIFIED FASHION SO
APPRECIATE DOCTOR TO TESTIFY
TODAY HAVE BEEN ANSWERED
QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. WHO'S NEXT
. BINANCE THE BUDGET CRYSTAL
BARBARA BINANCE WE HAVE NOTHING
TO ADD. LMAO THAT'S WHAT I LET'S
L. A. L. AS IS LAID OUT WELL IN
YOUR AGENDA THERE'S BEEN
SIGNIFICANT EVOLUTION IN THE
HALF PROGRAMS THAT WAS FIRST
ESTABLISHED REALLY STARTING WITH
HEAT BEFORE IT WITH THE
LEGISLATURE HAVE MADE
MODIFICATIONS IN AN EFFORT TO
INCREASE ACCOUNTABILITY AND
OVERSIGHT. OF THE PROGRAM THE
MOST MAJOR CHANGES WERE
IMPLEMENTED AS PART OF THE
TWENTY ONE TWENTY TWO BUDGET
PERHAPS. WERE AROUND THREE IN
ROUND FOUR AT A LOCAL ACTION
PLAN COMPONENTS AS A WAY TO
ENSURE THAT THE LIBERMAN SAID
GOALS FOR THEMSELVES THAT WE
CONTRACT TO OVERTIME- WELL THESE
MODIFICATIONS THAT MAY BE REALLY
HELPFUL OVER TIME ONE OF THE KEY
CHALLENGES TODAY IS THAT THE
INFORMATION FROM. THE FIRST
ROUND ROUND THREE- INFORMATION
ABOUT WHETHER LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
ARE MEETING THOSE OUTCOME GOALS
JUST WON'T BE AVAILABLE IN THE
NEAR TERM AS THE LEGISLATURE'S
MAKING BUDGET DECISIONS AROUND
AROUND FIGHTS THAT TINY. ISSUE
YOU KNOW IS ONE OF THE
CHALLENGES. I'M MORE BROADLY THE
PROPOSAL BY THE ADMINISTRATION
THIS YEAR PERHAPS TVL. DOES
INCLUDE PRIORITIZATION
CATEGORIES FOR THE USE OF
DOLLARS REALLY FOCUSING ON.
SUPPORTING AND MAINTAINING A
PRIOR INVESTMENT SUCH AS
PROVIDING OPERATING SUBSIDIES
FOR HOME KEY. AND SUPPORTING-
PARTICIPANTS IN THE NEWLY
ESTABLISHED KERR COURT PROGRAM-
SO USING SPENDING CATEGORY
PRIORITIZATION WHETHER IT'S THE
SAME CATEGORIES ESTABLISHED BY
THE GOVERNOR IN THE TVL OR
PROPOSED BY THE GOVERNOR IN THE
TVL. OR DIFFERENT CATEGORIES
THAT THE LEGISLATURE IDENTIFIES
COULD BE ONE MECHANISM TO ENSURE
THAT LOCALS ARE USING DOLLARS.
IN A WAY THAT ALIGNS WITH
LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES. WE DO
RECOGNIZE THAT THIS WOULD BE
SORT OF A SHIFTED. LIMITS TO
SOME DEGREE AT LOCAL FLEXIBILITY
AT LEAST TO THE EXTENT THAT
LOCALS HAVE ENJOYED IN PRIOR
ROUNDS. OF POP- IT'S MAKING MORE
BROADLY YOU KNOW HELP IS A KEY
BUT NOT THE ONLY- HOMELESSNESS
PROGRAM AS WELL AS A SUITE OF
OTHER. I'M HOUSING PROGRAMS
ACROSS THE STATE AND ONE OF THE-
CHALLENGES HAS BEEN THAT THESE
PROGRAMS HAVE VERY DIFFERENT
OBJECTIVES SOME PROGRAMS REALLY
FOCUSED ON- YOU KNOW BUILDING.
UNITS OTHERS ARE PROVIDING
SERVICES. AND SO MAKING THAT THE
FOOD INFORMATION ABOUT JUST RICK
BACK WILL DELIVER THIS FOR. GOAL
AND OF THE PRO. MAKE IT. MORE
CHALLENGING CHIU RELEASE HOW ALL
THE PROGRAMS ARE WORK TOGETHER
GET A FULL. THANK YOU. THANK
YOU. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT
WE HAVE SOME PANELISTS ON THE
REMOTE. LINE ADRIAN GRANDER FIVE
PRONOUNCE THAT CORRECT CORRECTLY
LISA BATES. AND JOHN GIOIA. YES
THAT'S CORRECT. WHEN YOU ARE SIR
. I'M JOHN JOYCE DO YOU
PRONOUNCE IT CORRECTLY OKAY
SUPERVISOR WOULD YOU LIKE TO
SPEAK FIRST SURE THANK YOU VERY
MUCH FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY- I AM
NOT- JOHN JOY AND SHARE THE
CONTRA COSTA COUNTY BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS THAT I ALSO SERVE.
ON CSX EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WHICH
IS YOU KNOW IT'S ALSO BEEN
REALLY WORKING ON. HOW WE CAN
BETTER STRUCTURE ARE HOMELESS
SYSTEM OF CARE IN CALIFORNIA AND
LET ME JUST START BY SAYING I
THINK THERE WAS THERE IS NO MORE
IMPORTANT TOPIC- IN ADDRESSING
HOMELESSNESS THAN REALLY HAVING
ACCOUNTABILITY AT STATE COUNTY
AND CITY LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT- I
CAN TELL YOU JUST A STARTING
CONTRA COSTA- WE ARE PLEASED
THAT WE DO WE'VE RECEIVED TO
HOMELESS HOUSING ASSISTANCE AND
PREVENTION ALLOCATIONS- WE ARE
THE ADMINISTRATIVE ENTITY FOR
BOTH THOSE ALLOCATIONS IT'S-
THAT'S MAXIMIZED EFFICIENCY- AND
WE HAVE VERY GOOD WELL
ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIPS. WITH
OUR REGIONAL PARTNERS WITH
CITIES WITH SERVICE PROVIDERS
WITH OUR HOUSING AUTHORITIES AND
PEOPLE WITH LIVED EXPERIENCE BUT
LET ME SAY THIS- DESPITE. ALL OF
THE INCREASE FUNDING AND WE
REALLY APPRECIATE THIS INCREASE
FUNDING THAT CALIFORNIA AND
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS HAD MADE IN
ADDRESSING HOMELESSNESS- WE DO
NOT HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE
HOMELESSNESS PLAN THAT ASSIGNS
ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES TO
ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT. AND
BECAUSE OF THAT- WE HAVE NOT
BEEN ABLE STATEWIDE TO MAKE
SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS DESPITE THE
INCREASE MONEY WE ARE SPENDING.
AS YOU ALL KNOW WE HAVE-
COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEMS ADDRESS IN
CHILD WELFARE AND EDUCATION AND
TRANSPORTATION AND OTHER MAJOR
STATE POLICY AREAS BUT WE DO NOT
HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEM WITH
REGARD TO HOMELESSNESS- CONTRA
COSTA COUNTY HAS BEEN ACTIVELY
PARTICIPATING. ALONG WITH OTHER
COUNTIES IN CALIFORNIA THROUGH A
CEASE ACT PROCESS TO DEVELOP A
COMPREHENSIVE HOMELESSNESS
SYSTEM THAT HAS CLEAR LINES OF
RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTABILITY
AND SUSTAINABLE FUNDING. AND WE
HAVE CALLED THIS PLAN AT HOME.
AND NOW HOME STANDS FOR
ACCOUNTABILITY TRANSPARENCY
HOUSING OUTREACH MITIGATION AND
ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY AND EACH OF
THESE PILLARS HAS A FULL SERIES
OF POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS THAT
WORK TOGETHER SO I THINK FOR
TODAY'S HEARING THE
ACCOUNTABILITY PILLAR IS
SPECIFICALLY RELEVANT- BECAUSE
WE ARE ARE LOOKING AT THAT
PROPOSAL FOR HOMELESSNESS
ACCOUNTABILITY- TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE. AND THE PLAN WILL
WOULD DO THREE THINGS TO IMPROVE
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE STATE'S
APPROACH TO HOMELESSNESS FIRST.
IT WOULD REQUIRE NOT JUST
ENCOURAGE BUT REQUIRE THE
SUBMISSION OF A COUNTY WIDE OR
REGIONAL PLAN TO ENSURE ALL
LOCAL ENTITIES COME TOGETHER ON
THE LOCAL RESPONSE TO
HOMELESSNESS THAT IS SO
IMPORTANT OF GETTING ALL THE
CITIES. AND COUNTY ON THE SAME
PAGE WE HAVE NINETEEN CITIES IN
OUR COUNTY OF ONE POINT TWO
MILLION. SECOND IT WOULD REQUIRE
COUNTIES AND CITIES TO AGREED TO
A DEFINED SET OF ROLES AND
RESPONSIBILITIES AS A CONDITION
OF RECEIVING FUNDING SO WHY WE
BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE MORE
FUNDING THAT FUNDING NEEDS TO BE
LINKED TO ROLES AND
RESPONSIBILITIES OF WHO'S
GETTING THAT FUNDING. SO THAT
THERE IS TRANSPARENCY AND
ACCOUNTABILITY. FINALLY THE PLAN
WOULD REQUIRE ONGOING FUNDING
FROM HOMELESSNESS RESPONSE AND
FOR THAT FUNDING TO BE
DISTRIBUTED IN A MANNER
CONSISTENT WITH THE COUNTY WHITE
HOMELESS PLAN THAT WE DEVELOP- I
BELIEVE AND WORKING THROUGH THIS
PROCESS THAT TAKEN TOGETHER.
THIS WOULD ENSURE THAT EVERY
LOCAL ENTITY IS CLEAR WHAT THEIR
ROLE IS AND THE HOMELESSNESS
RESPONSE SYSTEM- THAT THESE
ENTITIES ARE THEIR FUNDING IS
ALIGNED WITH THOSE DUTIES
BECAUSE THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN
ALWAYS TODAY. AND IT CAN BE AND
THAT ALL OF US CAN BE MORE
CLEARLY HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR
THOSE RESPONSIBILITIES COUNTIES.
I BELIEVE WE HAVE AN IMPORTANT
ROLE AND WANT TO BE ACCOUNTABLE
WITH INCREASED FUNDING- WE KNOW
THIS IS A LOT. AND THIS IS NOT
GONNA BE EASY OR QUICK TO GET
THROUGH- BUT OUR COUNTY CONTRA
COSTA AND- AND COUNTIES IN
CALIFORNIA ARE COMMITTED. TO
LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING WITH
THE LEGISLATURE AND THE GOVERNOR
TO DISCUSS AND IMPLEMENT THIS
PLAN. AND I WILL JUST CLOSE WITH
A COUPLE OF COMMENTS- WITH
REGARD TO IT YOU KNOW WHAT THE-
WHAT THESE WHAT KINDS OF
CONDITIONS AT A MINIMUM- SHOULD
BE LAID OUT- WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
OUR ROLES THINGS LIKE. COUNTIES
HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR
HEALTH IN THE SOCIAL SAFETY NET
PROGRAMS ON BEHALF OF THE STATE
S. TIMING MYSELF. AND WE
ADMINISTER THESE IN WAYS THAT
REACH INDIVIDUALS CITIES ARE
RESPONSIBLE OFTEN FOR CITING AND
FUNDING AND SUPPORTING. SOME
SHELTERS ALONG WITH COUNTIES AND
FOR HOUSING SO THERE'S A LOT OF
OPPORTUNITY FOR EACH OF US
CITIES AND COUNTY. TO DEFINE
THESE ROLES AND BE MORE
EFFECTIVE WITH THE INCREASED
MONEY WE'RE GETTING SO THANKS.
THANK YOU SUPERVISOR DO WE HAVE-
ADRIAN GROUND ON THE LINE. CITY
INDIGO YES I ENJOY GOING THERE.
PLEASE PROCEED. THANK YOU

BIPARTISAN GROUP OF THE MAYORS

PROGRAMS FROM THEIR BEGINNING.
CALIFORNIA'S HOMELESSNESS AND
HOUSING CRISIS IS THE BIGGEST
ISSUE FACING CITIES AND MAYORS.
I JUST AS IS LIKELY THE TOP
ISSUE FOR YOU ESTATE LAWMAKERS.
ALMOST NESS AND LACK OF
AFFORDABLE HOUSING STIFEL EQUITY

EXACERBATE DISPARITIES IN OUR
EDUCATION SYSTEM WORSENED HEALTH

SAN DIEGO SHARE YOUR SENSE OF
URGENCY ARE COMMITTED TO RESULTS
AND WELCOME ACCOUNTABILITY. I
HOPE THAT COVER A FEW KEY ITEMS
TODAY. MAINLY TO TELL YOU WHAT
SAN DIEGO IN BIG CITIES ARE
DOING WITH HOW DOLLARS. L.
STREET THE COLLABORATION WITH
OUR COUNTIES IN KENTUCKY ARMS OF
CARE. AND ALSO SHARE- WHAT FROM
THE C. PERSPECTIVE WE THINK
ACCOUNTABILITY SHOULD ME AND-
LEGISLATIVELY. WE THINK THE
LEGISLATURE AND THE GOVERNOR FOR
THE UNPRECEDENTED INVESTMENT IN
HOMELESSNESS OVER THE LAST FEW
YEARS. THE BIG CITY MAYORS
ANOTHER REPORT LAST YEAR
HIGHLIGHTING WHAT WE HAVE DONE
WITH THE FIRST THREE YEARS OF
FUNDING THROUGH THE HEAT AND HOW
PROGRAMS. ARE CURRENTLY
COLLECTING DATA AND HELP TO
ENSURE. AN UPDATED VERSION OF
THAT REPORT WITH YOU ALL SOON.
CITIES ARE ON THE FRONT LINES OF
HOMELESSNESS AND WE ARE GETTING
THE HARD WORK ON. R. SPLIT IS
ROUGHLY THREE HUNDRED THIRTY
MILLION OF THE HUNT- ONE BILLION
DOLLAR. FIGURE THAT YOU OF ALL
BUNCH IN THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS-
COLLECTIVELY ARE CITIES HAVE
ADDED NINE THOUSAND BADLY NEEDED
SHELTER BEDS ARE EMERGENCY
RESPONSE ALMOST THE SYSTEM
STATEWIDE. ANSWERED OVER TWENTY
FIVE THOUSAND PEOPLE THROUGH A
NUMBER OF ALMOST PROGRAMS. OUR
CITY IS SET UP CONGREGATE AND
NON CONGREGATE EMERGENCY SHELTER
SAFE PARKING LOTS FOR PEOPLE
LIVING IN THEIR CARS. COURTNEY

WITH THESE PROGRAMS WE'VE HOUSED
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE. SAN DIEGO
IS ABLE TO GROW GET SHELTER

ADDS. THIRTEEN HUNDRED WHICH ARE
DIRECTLY SUPPORTED BY HALF
DOLLARS. WE HAVE OFFERINGS FOR
DIFFERENT POPULATIONS MEETING
PEOPLE WHERE THEY ARE INCLUDING
SENIORS FAMILIES LG G. B. L. G.
B. T. Q. PLUS. YOU AND OTHERS.
SAN DIEGO'S HAPPENED IN
SHELTERS. HOUSE NEARLY HOUSE
NEARLY FIVE HUNDRED PEOPLE FROM
TWENTY TWENTY ONE TO TWENTY
TWENTY TWO. A COUPLE EXAMPLES
FROM OTHER CITIES SACRAMENTO
GREAT SHELTER SYSTEM IN JUST
ABOUT FIVE YEARS FROM HUNDRED
BEDS TO ELEVEN HUNDRED THAT'S-
SAN JOSE HAS INVESTED IN MODULAR
QUICK BUILD HOUSING. OAKLAND
OPERATE SAFE PARKING AND CABIN
COMMUNITIES. AND BAKERSFIELD HAS
SHELTERS WITH ENHANCED MENTAL
HEALTH SERVICES LOCATED AT THE
SHELTERS. I DO WANT TO HIGHLIGHT
ON THIS CONVERSATION AROUND
HEIGHTENED INVESTMENT THE LACK
OF PERCEIVED PROGRESS. THE
FUNDING THAT YOU ALL APPROVED IN
THE BUDGET IN JUNE OF TWENTY
TWENTY ONE JUST WAS RECEIVED BY
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN JANUARY OF
THIS YEAR FOLLOWING A VERY HIGH
PROFILE CONVERSATION. WITH THE
GOVERNOR'S OFFICE LAST FALL.
DOES FUNDS FROM HAPPEN AROUND
THREE ALSO MARKED THE HEIGHT OF
THE FUNDING FOR THE HEALTH
PROGRAM AT THE CURRENT MARKET A
BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR. I AGAIN
I BRING THIS UP JUST BECAUSE WE
HAVE YET TO SEE THE IMPACT OF
THESE DOLLARS ACTUALLY BEING
DEPLOYED BY LOCAL GOVERNMENTS.
I'M COLLABORATION IT'S BEEN
MAJOR PRIORITY HERE IN THE CITY
OF SAN DIEGO THE REALITY IS
EVERY LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT HAS A-
ROLE TO PLAY HERE FROM- FEDERAL
SECTION EIGHT VOUCHERS. TO STATE
FUNDING LIKE HAPPEN HOME KEY TO
SHELTERS HOUSING AND SERVICES
PROVIDED LOCALLY. SAN DIEGO ON
HOW PROGRAM REQUIRES THE CITY
COUNTIES AND CONTINUOUS CARE TO
USE THE SAME BASELINE DATA. AT
THE COUNTY LEVEL AND SERVE THE
SAME. GOALS OUR PARTNERSHIPS ARE
STRONG PARTICULARLY BETWEEN THE
CITY AND THE COUNTY THINGS
LEADERS LIKE JOHNNY- SUPERVISOR
NORA VARGAS WHO IS THE CHAIR OF
OUR BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. FOR
OUR PROJECT THANK YOU FOR
EXAMPLE THE CITY HAS SECURED.
THREE HUNDRED SEVENTY APARTMENT
UNITS TODAY AND THE COUNTY FUNDS
AND SERVICES FOR THOSE.
COOPERATION IS STRONG AND WE
HOPE TO BE A MODEL FOR THE REST
OF THE STATE. LASTLY I WANT TO
GO AND SUCH A FEW POINTS ON
ACCOUNTABILITY. IT'S IMPORTANT
THAT THE GOALS WE SET AS PART OF
THIS CONVERSATION BE CLEAR AND
MEASURABLE. AND LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS MET WITH THE
GOVERNOR LAST FALL THE GOALS WE
WERE ASKED ME OR SIMPLIFIED TO
TWO VERY FOCUSED GOALS. REDUCING
UNSHELTERED HOMELESSNESS AND
PLACING MORE PEOPLE IN THE-
HOUSING. THIS MAKES SENSE. YOU
KNOW THE PROGRAM CITIES FUND
WITH STATE FUNDING OPERATES
PLACES FOR PEOPLE AND THOSE ARE
PEOPLE WHO WOULD OTHERWISE BE ON
THE STREETS. ABU NEED CLEAR
INFORMATION FROM THE AGENCY- ON
THE DIRECT IMPACTS. OF YOUR
INVESTMENTS THROUGH THAT PROGRAM
AND OTHER FUNDING YOUR FIRST. WE
DO NEED. TO PUT INTO BRING
GREATER CONTACTS THE BROADER
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. ONE FIGURE
THAT WE USE IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY
IS THAT FOR EVERY TEN PEOPLE WE
ARE GETTING OFF THE STREETS
THIRTEEN. PEOPLE FALL NEARLY
INTO HOMELESSNESS. WE'RE NOT
UNIQUE IN THAT FIGURE.
SACRAMENTO FOR EVERY TEN PEOPLE
HOUSED TWELVE PEOPLE BECOME
HOMELESS NOT. BECOME NEWLY
HOMELESS IN LOS ANGELES EACH
DAY. TWO HUNDRED NINE PEOPLE ARE
HOUSE A TWO HUNDRED TWENTY ONE
PEOPLE BECOME HOMELESS. WE MUST
DO MORE TO FOCUS ON UPSTREAM AND
PREVENTION THE DRASTIC INFLOW
INTO HOMELESSNESS. ON THE
BROADER CONTEXT ACCOUNTABILITY
SHOULD ALSO FACTOR IN LOW
VACANCY RATES IRAN'S SUNSETTING
OF MANY KOBE ERA RELIEF.
PROGRAMS AND RENTER PROTECTIONS
. YEAH THIS BROADER CONTEXT BE
IGNORED I SEE WHY PEOPLE ARE
FALLING INTO HOMELESSNESS. IN
THIS LEADS ME TO A CONCLUSION
WHICH IS. WE DO NEED MORE
RESOURCES I AM CONTINUE
RESPONDING AS A CONSIDERATION IN
THIS CONVERSATION. THE BIG CITY
MAYORS FROM WE HAVE A REQUEST
FOR HAVE TO BE FUNDED AT TWO
BILLION A YEAR ON GOING OR AT
MINIMUM SUSTAINED FUNDING FOR
MULTIPLE YOUR INVESTMENTS- ONCE
WE AGREE ON ACCOUNTABILITY AND
WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE FROM A
LEGISLATIVE PERSPECTIVE. WE ALSO
RECOMMEND THE LEGISLATURE LOOK
AT BONUS FUNDING AS WE DO HAVE A
CRISIS TODAY AND THESE ARE ARE
YOU BUDGET BUDGET DOLLARS.
BETWEEN HOW BROWN'S THREE AND
FOUR THERE ARE THREE HUNDRED AND
SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS SITTING ON
THE SIDELINES- WELL WE HAVE A
CRISIS TODAY ON OUR STREETS.
LASTLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY WE-
REALLY ASK THAT HAVE REMAIN
FLEXIBLE. IS EMERGENCY FUNDING
AND WE NEED TO FILL GAPS WHERE
HARD AND OTHER TRADITIONAL
SOURCES OF FUNDING. ALLOCATED
TOWARD PERMANENT HOUSING ARE TOO
RIGID WE CAUTION AGAINST
LIMITING ABUSES AND ASKED THAT
THE LEGISLATURE CONSIDER
GRANDFATHERING IN CURRENT. USES
SOMEONE LEAVING PEOPLE ON THE
STREETS ARE BEING SERVED BY.
EXISTING PROGRAMS. OUT WITHOUT.
I REALLY THANK YOU ALL FOR THE
TIME TODAY TO SHARE THE C.
PERSPECTIVE AND I'M HAPPY TO
ANSWER QUESTIONS. THANK YOU SIR
NOW LET'S SEE OF LISA BATES IS
ON THE LINE. GOOD AFTERNOON
THANK YOU. WE ARE MANY RECENT
DATES WITH CIRCUMSTANCE FORD WE
ARE IN LEAD ENTITIES OR
SACRAMENTO'S CONTINUUM OF CARE.
I'M AS A REGIONAL PLANNING BODY
WE REALLY APPRECIATE THE FOCUS
ON ENCOURAGING AND- REQUIRING
REGIONAL COLLABORATION. REGIONAL
PLANS AND SETTING SYSTEM LEVEL
MEASURES THAT ARE FOCUSED ON
SOLVING THIS NOT MANAGING THE
PROBLEM. INSTRUMENTAL TO THE HOT
PROGRAM HAS BEEN WITH
FLEXIBILITY FOR LOCAL
COMMUNITIES TO CALIBRATE THEIR
INTERVENTIONS AND INVESTMENTS AS
EACH COMMUNITY WAS UNIQUE. OUR
LOCAL CONTEXT AS MATTER IN YOUR
RANGE OF SOLUTIONS THAT WERE
ABLE TO DEPLOY. WE APPRECIATE
THE HELP ELIGIBLE USES OUR-
LARGELY GROUNDED AND BEST
ACTRESS INTERVENTIONS AND
APPROACHES THAT WORK
PARTICULARLY WHEN FUNDED AT
SCALE AND WHEN COORDINATED.
REGIONAL SYSTEM. THE STATE'S
FOCUS ON SYSTEM PLANNING
REQUIRING AN ACTIONABLE PLAN
WITH MEASURABLE TARGETS SUCH AS
THE LOCAL HOMELESSNESS ACTION
PLAN. THIS HELPS SACRAMENTO COME
TOGETHER AND FOCUS ON SYSTEM
LEVEL COORDINATION MOVING AWAY
FROM SILO TO NON ALIGNED
APPROACHES TO MORE ABOUT ALIGNED
AND INTEGRATED APPROACH JUST
THIS LAST MONDAY WE LAUNCHED IN
FRONT OF THREE HUNDRED PLUS
INDIVIDUALS WITH OUR ELECTED
LEADERS. OUR FIRST YEAR ACTIONS
THE LOCAL HOMELESSNESS ACTION
PLAN THAT WERE MEMORABLE
ACTIONABLE AND WILL BE REPORTED
ON OUR QUARTERLY. AN INCLUSIVE
IN THIS AGREEMENT IS A LEGALLY
BINDING PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
BETWEEN OUR CITY AND COUNTY THAT
HAS IDENTIFIED ROLES AND
RESPONSIBILITIES FOR INCREASING
CAPACITY SHELTER CAPACITY.
COORDINATING AND USING JOINT
FUNDING SHELTERS OUTREACH
SERVICES AND A NEW COORDINATED
ACCESS SYSTEM. AND A MORE
COMPREHENSIVE HOUSING PLAN. WE
HAVE. THE FOLKS ON SYSTEM LEVEL
OUTCOMES ON THE USE OF COMMON
DATE DATA MEASUREMENTS- BUT THE
LEGISLATURE ALSO SHOULD
UNDERSTAND THAT COMMUNITIES ARE
DIFFERENT LEVELS OF- DATA
QUALITY AND NOT ALL COMMUNITIES
AND CONDUCT THEIR ANNUAL POINT
IN TIME COUNT. ARE CONDUCTING
AND THE POINT TIME COUNT EACH
YEAR. I'M THE SYSTEM CHANGES
THAT WE ARE SEEKING THEY'RE ALL
SEEKING AND HOMELESSNESS AS THE
OTHER SPEAKERS HAVE INDICATED
ARE OFTEN RESULT AND MANY OTHER
FACTORS JIM JUST WHAT THE CITY
COUNTY AND THE CSCS CAN CONTROL
OR INFLUENCE. AND SO THAT SHOULD
BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN
SETTING I'M EXPECTATIONS OR THE
YEARS OF BONUS FUNDING. WE
WELCOME THE CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT
WITH THE INTERAGENCY COUNCIL ON
HOMELESSNESS- THEY HAVE BEEN
EXTREMELY HELPFUL AND REVIEWING
AND DISCUSSING OUR LOCAL PLANS
AND OUR TARGETS AND WE'VE BEEN
WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THEM
. WE THINK THE MODEL OF THE
SPECIFIC ROLES AND
RESPONSIBILITIES AS OUTLINED IN
THERE SACRAMENTO COUNTY AND CITY
PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT- IS A
MODEL THAT THAT COULD BE USED IN
TERMS OF ACCOUNTABILITY. ARE
GOING FORWARD. WE WOULD LIKE TO
SEE THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO LEAN
ON ACCOUNTABILITY SUCH AS WHAT
C. SACK AS REPRESENTED- AND ALSO
THE BIG CITIES BUT WE ALSO
SUPPORT CONTINUED FLEXIBILITY
FOR PROVIDING- FUNDING THAT.
ADDRESSES NOT ONLY A CRISIS
RESPONSE BUT ALSO THE NEED TO
PREVENT AND END HOMELESSNESS
WITH OUR CONTINUED FUNDING FOR
HOUSING APPROACHES. AND WE WOULD
HOPE THAT THE THAT THE
LEGISLATURE IN THE STATE WE
CONSIDER A MEASURED APPROACH FOR
THOSE COMMUNITIES THAT MAY FALL
SHORT. OUR WITH WITH MORE
ENCOURAGEMENT AND SUPPORT PRIOR
TO ANY WITH ROSS FUNDING. THAT
I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWERING
QUESTIONS. THANK YOU MS BATES-
JUST LEAD OFF ON THE SUBJECT OF
ACCOUNTABILITY. OF THE COUNTY
WIDE PLAN IS PRESENTED- MY
SUPERVISOR- GIOIA. A COUNTIES
AND CITIES GETTING TOGETHER TO
AGREE ON A SET OF ROLES AND
RESPONSIBILITIES I NOTE THAT
THE- INTENT LANGUAGE CONTAINS A
REQUIREMENT COUNTIES AND CITIES
HAVE A COMPLAINT HOUSING ELEMENT
. SO WHAT HAPPENS IF ONE OF CITY
WHO WANTS TO PARTICIPATE DOESN'T
HAVE A COMBINED HOUSING ELEMENT
WHEN THE COUNTIES AND CITIES ARE
ATTEMPTING TO GET TOGETHER OR IN
THE ALTERNATIVE. PERHAPS THE
CITY HAS A COMBINED ELEMENT BUT
THE CITY DOESN'T WANT TO
PARTICIPATE ONE OR MORE OR CAN'T
AGREE WITH THE COUNTY. AND
OBVIOUSLY WE NEED TO HAVE SOME
BROADER ACCOUNTABILITY PROCESS
IN PLACE AND WE NEED TO ASSIGN
ACCOUNTABILITY TO. I THANK
ENTITIES WHO RECEIVED FUNDING
BUT HOW DOES THIS ALL WORK.
GREAT QUESTION SENATOR IT'S
REALLY WHEN WE THINK OF THE TIE
INTO HOUSING ELEMENT IT COMES
FULL CIRCLE IN TERMS OF THE
FOCUS ON HOUSING. HOUSING
ELEMENT LAW IS REALLY JUST THE
PREDICATE OF AT THE VERY MINIMUM
MAKING SURE LOCALITIES ARE
PLANNING FOR THEIR FAIR SHARE OF
HOUSING THROUGHOUT THE STATE. SO
A LARGE PART WE HAVE A
JURISDICTIONS THEY CAME TO MEET
THAT MINIMUM THRESHOLD HAVING A
COMPLAINT HOUSING ELEMENT.
REALLY BEGS THE QUESTION OF
WHETHER THEY CAN MAKE PROGRESS
IN MAKING THIS REALLY
FUNDAMENTAL CHALLENGE SO. TO
SPECIFIC YOUR QUESTION SENATOR
THE- EFFORT TO TIE HOUSE ELEMENT
COMPLIANCE TO THE CONDITION OF
RESOURCES THIRTY EXISTING
PRECEDENT SB TWO DOLLARS TWENTY
SEVENTEEN. YOUR JEFFORDS
LEGISLATURE IS ABLE TO ENACT AT
THAT TIME ADD TO THAT IS A VERY
SPECIFIC CONDITION FOR COUNTIES
TO RECEIVE THE ONGOING REVENUE
SOURCING THAT PERMIT LOCAL
HOUSING APPLICATION. SO THIS IS
THERE'S OTHER SUMMER PROGRAMS BY
I THINK REALLY WHAT WE'RE
FOCUSING ON HERE IS TO MAKE
SURE. THAT JURISDICTION'S ARE
DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN RIGHT
IN THIS COLLECTIVE EFFORT AND
REALLY WHEN WE SEE.
JURISDICTIONS THAT ARE NOT ABLE
TO HAVE A COMPLAINT HOUSING
ELEMENT IS ALREADY CONSEQUENCES
IN EXISTING ONE DIFFERENT
REMEDIES THE- ON THE ENFORCEMENT
SIDE OF. THINGS WITH H. V. IN
THE- STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S
OFFICE BUT REALLY LOOKING AT. WE
WERE TALKING THIS FINITE
RESOURCE ISN'T BEING MOST
EFFICIENT ACCOUNTABLE IS ROOTED
IN MAKING SURE WE CAN MAKE THIS
HOUSING GOALS THAT WE ALL HOPE
TO ACCOMPLISH IN. FIRST VIDAK
ALMOST AS AND MOVING BEYOND THE
COMPLAINT HOUSING ELEMENT ISSUE
. YOU KNOW IN THIS PARTICULAR
SUBJECT AREA HOUSING AND
HOMELESSNESS- HISTORICALLY
CITIES AND COUNTIES HAVEN'T
ALWAYS AGREED. AND THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SOME CITIES
IN SOME COUNTIES IS NOT ALWAYS
BEEN THE BEST. SO HOW HOW DO YOU
HOW DO WE INCENTIVIZE. AN
ACCOUNTABILITY SYSTEM THAT WRAPS
THEM ALL IN. TOGETHER AND
COORDINATES ACCOUNTABILITY AND
ASSIGNS RESPONSIBILITY- AT. AT
AND AT THE RIGHT TIME. RIGHT CAN
I DRESS THAT. I DRESS THAT
AFTER. ABSOLUTELY SO I'VE BEEN
ON OUR BOARD OF SUPERVISORS FOR
TWENTY FIVE YEARS AND I'VE SEEN
THE ADS INFLOWS OF FUNDING I'VE
SEEN ADS INFLOWS OF.
RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN OUR
NINETEEN CITIES- SO WHILE SOME
OF THE INDIVIDUAL COMMENTS
ABOUT. WHAT WE NEED TO DO. ARE
IMPORTANT. I JUST WANT TO STEP
BACK FOR A SECOND AND SAY WE
HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO MAKE. A
SUBSTANTIAL DENT IN ADDRESSING
HOMELESSNESS DESPITE THE GREAT
ADDITIONAL MONEY TO STATE IS PUT
ON THE TABLE- AND IT'S BECAUSE-
IT WE NEED BROADER REFORM ON
ACCOUNTABILITY- THAT. RIGHT NOW
A LOT IS ENCOURAGED BY THE STATE
IT'S NOT MANDATED- AND WHAT I
WORK WITH THE NINETEEN CITIES IN
OUR COUNTY. EACH COMING FROM
DIFFERENT PLACES- THEY TAKE
DIFFERENT LEVELS OF
RESPONSIBILITY. THERE'S FINGER
POINTING THEY THEY SAY IT'S THE
COUNTY'S RESPONSIBILITY OTHER
STATES THE CITIES UNTIL WE LINK
THE FUNDING THAT YOU PROVIDE AT
THE STATE TO CLEAR ACCEPTANCE OF
RESPONSIBILITY BY VARIOUS LEVELS
OF GOVERNMENT WE'RE NOT GOING TO
MAKE A DENT ON THIS ISSUE. THE
HOUSING ELEMENT EXAMPLE YOU YOU
GAVE IS IT IS AN IMPORTANT ONE
HOUSING AN ALMOST IT AND MENTAL
HEALTH SERVICES ARE INEXTRICABLY
LINKED TO ADDRESSING
HOMELESSNESS. THE PROBLEM IS
WE'VE GONE BEYOND THE NEED FOR
INDIVIDUAL. AMENDMENTS AND AN
INDIVIDUAL REFORMS WE NEED A
SYSTEMIC REFORM THERE IS NO
ISSUE- MORE IN PEOPLE'S MINDS IT
IN THE DISTRICT I REPRESENT THE
WEST PART OF OUR COUNTY. THEN
HOMELESSNESS AND THEM SAYING WE
HEAR YOU'RE GETTING ALL THIS
EXTRA MONEY FROM THE STATE WHY
ISN'T THE PROBLEM GETTING ANY
BETTER SO THE ANSWER IS OF WELL
WE NEED TO FIX THIS ON THE
HOUSING ELEMENT. THEY'RE NOT
GOING TO GET US THERE WE NEED A
BROADER REFORM AND THAT THAT'S
THE POINT I THINK WE'RE TRYING
TO MAKE IN COUNTY GOVERNMENT. IS
YES THEY CITIES DOING SOME GREAT
THINGS AROUND THE STATE OTHERS
NOT STEPPING UP. UNTIL YOU
MANDATE THAT ABILITY FOR US TO
WORK TOGETHER WITH CITIES AND
WE'RE TALKING TO OUR CITIES
ABOUT THIS. AND SO THAT'S MY
POINT WE NEED TO LOOK AT THIS
MORE HOLISTICALLY TO ADDRESS THE
ISSUE RATHER THAN INDIVIDUAL
CHANGES. WHEN HIS DESK BY THE
WAY THOSE PARTICIPANTS ON THE-
REMOTE AYE WE DON'T TYPICALLY WE
DON'T HAVE IN THIS HEARING ROOM
THE COMPUTER THAT TELLS US WHO.
WANTS TO SPEAK SO IF SOMEONE
WANTS TO SPEAK WHO WAS ON THE TV
SCREEN REMOTELY JUST SPEAK UP
AND- BECAUSE WE WANT TO HEAR
FROM YOU I JUST DON'T KNOW. WHO
HAS A COMMENT AT ANY PARTICULAR
POINT IN TIME ONE MORE QUICK
FOLLOW UP TO THAT THOUGH SO IF
YOU'RE A COUNTY AND YOU HAVE TEN
CITIES IN TWO OF THEM A
RECALCITRANT. WHAT'S THE PROCESS
TO GET EVERYBODY TO AGREE DO YOU
DENY FUNDING FOR THE WHOLE
BUNCH. AND FORCE THEM TO THE
TABLE OR DO YOU. IS MILLETS.
SUPERVISOR MAYBE YOU HAVE AN
IDEA OF WHAT. I HAVE FOUND THE
BEST WAY TO GET A COUNTY OR CITY
ON BOARD. IS NOT JUST TO
INCENTIVIZE THEM. BUT ALSO TO
HAVE SOME MECHANISM. THAT ALLOWS
THEM TO GET FUNDING OR MORE
FUNDING IF THEY AGREE I THINK
MOST CITIES AND COUNTIES WILL
SAY. WE WANT TO DO THE RIGHT
THING- BUT IF AND WHEN MONEY IS
IT BECOMES THE LEVERAGE. IT IT'S
AN AMAZING TOOL TO GET FOLKS TO
STEP UP AND AGREE. AND SO I DO
THINK- YOU LOOK AT YOU CAN LEAVE
IT TO US AT THE LOCAL LEVEL TO
FIGURE OUT THE POLITICS. BUT
IT'S EASIER FOR US TO WORK WITH
THE CITY IF WE SAY HEY WE'RE NOT
GOING TO GET FUNDING IF YOU
DON'T COME ON BOARD WITH US
ALMOST THIS IS A PROBLEM IN YOUR
CITY AS WELL. SO AND I SO I
THINK YOU KNOW HOW WE DO THE
DETAILS OF THIS STILL NEEDS TO
OBVIOUSLY BE ADDRESSED. BUT
USING MONEY AS BOTH A CARROT AND
A STICK. IN VARIOUS WAYS IS
IMPORTANT. IF I MIGHT BE ABLE TO
ADD SOMETHING TO. WHAT THE CHAIR
JUST SAT- I THINK THERE'S A LOT
OF US GOOD IN THE AT HOME- THE
PROPOSAL AND WE'RE STILL LOOKING
AT IT IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
LEAGUE OF CITIES AND ARE YOU
HAVE CITY PARTNERS. NOT SIGNED
ON TO YOUR POINT I THINK YOU'RE
RAISING SOMETHING THAT'S VERY
IMPORTANT. ON THE VERY FIRST
ITERATION OF THIS PROGRAM SHE-
YEAH THAT WAS LIMITED TO
CITIZENS YES HE'S ONLY. AND CAME
WITH A REQUIREMENT THE CITY
DECLARE SHELTER CRISIS. ON
RECALCITRANT CITIES FOUND A
DISTURBING TREND THAT SOME
CITIES. THAT WERE NOT WELCOME TO
TECHNICALLY HOUSING AND
DEFINITELY NOT WELCOME
HOMELESSNESS PROGRAMS. WORKED
VERY FINE NOT RECEIVE FUNDING SO
I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE
NEED TO BE CAREFUL IF YOU'RE- A
WITH RESPECT TO THIS. PARTICULAR
ISSUE THAT'S ALL WE ARE
SUPPORTIVE OF THE GOVERNOR'S YOU
ALSO HAVE- HOUSING ELEMENT
COMPLIANCE BE- PRECONDITION.
IT'S SOMETHING THE BEARS FURTHER
CONSIDERATION. ON THE DELEGATION
OF ROLES RESPONSIBILITIES AS
PROPOSED BY. I'LL BE AT HOME
PROPOSAL. IT'S ALSO IMPORTANT TO
UNDERSTAND SOME OF THESE THINGS
AREN'T AS CLEAN AND CLEAR AS
CITIES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
SHELTERS AND HOUSING AND-
COUNTIES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
SERVICES PERFECT EXAMPLE IS THE
NO PLACE LIKE HOME PROGRAM. SOME
OF THE MOST NEEDED HOUSING
ACTUALLY FALLS UNDER THE GUISE
OF OR FALLS UNDER THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF CITIES AND
COUNTIES. ON AS A HOUSING
BECOMES OF CLINICAL SERVICES
ATTACHED SO IT'S REALLY
IMPORTANT THAT WE NOT CLEARLY
DEFINED LINES IN THAT WAY AND
ARE ABLE TO CONSIDER THOSE NEEDS
AS WELL. YEAH WE'RE BUILDING
HOUSING AS WELL SO I THINK THAT
WAS A GOOD POINT. IN SOME
JURISDICTIONS WE MAY AGREE TO
SOME DIFFERENT THINGS- SO AND
LEAVING IT UP TO COUNTY WHITE
PLANS WILL ALLOW CITIES AND
COUNTIES TO FIGURE OUT WHAT
WORKS IN THEIR COUNTY. THIS IS A
GREAT DISCUSSION LET ME JUST
SOMEBODY MENTION CARROT AND
STICK. THE ANALYSIS OF SPEAKS
TO. SOMETHING I GUESS THAT
OCCURRED. PRIOR WHERE. CITIES I
THINK WAS CITIES WERE ALLOWED TO
SET THE GOALS AND THE GOALS WERE
SET LOW AND THEN THE CITY
QUALIFIED FOR THE PARTICULAR OF
I GOT THE RIGHT SUBJECT. THE
SENATOR THE QUALITY MODELS IS
ADDITIONAL BONUS AND HOW DO YOU
HOW DO YOU IF YOU'RE GONNA USE A
CARROT AND STICK APPROACH HOW DO
YOU. HOW DO YOU PROTECT AGAINST
THAT BECAUSE WE OBVIOUSLY WANT.
MORE WE WANT THE PROBLEM SOLVED
THIS IS NOT ABOUT SETTING LITTLE
GOALS AND SHOVING MONEY TO
CITIES WHEN. WHEN WE'RE NOT
SOLVING THE PROBLEM IS OUT OF
QUESTION THAT MAKES SENSE. THE
HEARING CENTER AT IT DOES I
THINK ULTIMATELY WHAT WE'RE
GRAPPLING WITH IS THAT. WHILE WE
HAVE FINANCIAL INCENTIVES THAT
SURE COULD. ELICIT A CERTAIN
BEHAVIOR THE END OF THE DAY WHEN
WE FOCUS ON THE UNDERLYING
ACTIONS TO INFORM THOSE RESULTS.
THE STRUCTURE THAT UNDERPINS THE
THIRD AND FOURTH ROUND WHICH IS
FOCUSED ON THE SPANISH
FRAMEWORK. DOES A THINK AND
BOOKBINDER- POINT SENATOR FOCUS
ON INCENTIVE ACTUALLY TO. SENATE
MIGHT ACTUALLY UNDER EMISSIONS
SO TO MAKE SURE THAT. MEDIA
CORRESPONDENT GOAL COURSE IF YOU
REALLY STRETCHED AND PUSH THE
ENVELOPE THAT'S GONNA REALLY AT
MAKE IT FAR MORE DIFFICULT RIGHT
EXTENSION BUT- WE'RE FOCUSING ON
THESE ACTIONS AGAIN THE ACTIONS
THAT THEY EVEN THINK THE- S.
REVISOR AND- MR UNDER WERE
REFERRING TO. IS THESE ACTIONS
IN THESE ROLES AND
RESPONSIBILITIES THAT HAVE TO BE
A PART OF A FULL SPECTRUM OF A
COORDINATED RESPONSE AND- THE
OUTCOME GOALS ARE ONLY GOOD IF
WE DO LIKE THE- THE LEGISLATURE
AND ADMINISTRATION PURSUE. THAT
EFFORT. THAT IS ONLY AS GOOD AS
THE UNDERLYING ACTIONS ARE
FORMING THOSE SCHOOLS RIGHT SO
AGAIN REALLY MOVING AWAY FROM
THIS FOCUS ON. NUMBERS FOR THE
SAKE OF NUMBERS BUT WHERE THOSE
ACTUAL ACTIONS IN THIS CLEAR
ROLES RESPONSIBILITIES THAT WILL
ACTUALLY. INFORM. WHAT THE
PROGRESS WE HOPE TO SEE. THANK
YOU I HAVE OF. BEEN AN EX. RUDE
SHARE AND I'M SURE CENTER
PADILLA WILL SPANK ME WHEN HE
GETS BACK SO I'M NOW GOING TO.
TURN IT OVER TO MY COLLEAGUES
FOR ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
CENTER NERO. THIS IS A BIG
PROBLEM. AND OF. HISTORICALLY
USE ME STARKLY. COUNTIES HAVE
BEEN. WELCOME NEWMAN SERVICE
PROVIDERS IN OUR STATE-
INCLUDING HOMELESSNESS EFFORTS.
THAT CHANGED. REALLY
FUNDAMENTALLY ABOUT FIVE YEARS
AGO- WHEN THE STATE. I MAY BE
OVERSTATING BUT ESSENTIALLY TOOK
IT OVER- WE HAVE A SEEMINGLY.
ENDLESS ALPHABET SOUP PARADE OF
PROJECTS. THAT HAVE BEEN
INITIATED AT THE STATE LEVEL.
FOR THE STATE AND COUNTIES TO
AND CITIES TO IMPLEMENT. WE
HAVE. I THINK THE NUMBER IS-
THIRTY FIVE SEPARATE PROGRAMS-
TO SERVE PEOPLE WHO ARE- AT RISK
OF BECOMING HOMELESS OR HOMELESS
- MAYBE WERE. MAYBE WE'RE AT A
TURNING POINT. AND WE OUGHT TO
GO BACK TO THE MODEL OF HEALTH
AND HUMAN SERVICES DELIVERY THAT
WAS CERTAINLY MORE SUCCESSFUL IN
THE LAST FIVE YEARS OF THAT IN
THAT PERIOD OF FIVE YEARS
HOMELESSNESS HAS INCREASED
RATHER SIGNIFICANTLY. R. SO THAT
CERTAINLY WOULDN'T BODE WELL FOR
A RECOMMENDATION THAT WE KEEP
DOING WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING. I
MET WITH- THE- SOCIAIS ASIAN OF
COUNTIES YESTERDAY AND THEY
PRESENTED TO ME THERE- AT HOME
PROJECT. AND BY THE WAY THE MOST
UNIQUE PART OF THAT PLAN WAS THE
LAST HE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY.
I'VE BEEN IN ALL OF THE
DISCUSSIONS WE'VE HAD ABOUT
HOMELESSNESS I'VE NOT SEEN
ANYBODY OR HURT ANYBODY ACTUALLY
ARTICULATE THAT. AND HERE'S WHY
IT'S IMPORTANT BECAUSE WHAT IS
THE ULTIMATE GOAL. OF CURING
HOMELESSNESS. THE ULTIMATE GOAL
IS TO GET PEOPLE THAT ARE
LANGUISHING ON THE STREETS.
WHETHER ON HARD ECONOMIC TIMES
OR BECAUSE OF SUBSTANCE ABUSE OR
BECAUSE OF MENTAL ILLNESS. BUT
TO GET THOSE PEOPLE NOT JUST IN
SHELTERS AND NOT JUST IN
TREATMENT BUT TO SELF
SUFFICIENCY. THAT SHOULD BE THE
ULTIMATE GOAL AND FRANKLY SINCE
I'VE BEEN HERE I'VE ONLY BEEN
BACK FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW. BUT
SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE I HAVEN'T
HEARD ONE PERSON ACTUALLY
ARTICULATE THAT IS THE ULTIMATE
GOAL OF HOMELESSNESS. AND THE
COUNTY PLAN THE HOUSE HAS THAT.
NOW THE ADVANTAGE OF COUNTIES
BEING THE PRIMARY- SERVICE
PROVIDER IS THAT- A ONE SIZE ALL
APPROACH. GENERALLY DOESN'T WORK
AND I THINK THE OUR LACK OF
SUCCESS. OF SORT OF DEMONSTRATES
THAT. IT HASN'T WORKED IN THE
LAST FIVE YEARS OR SO- IT SEEMS
TO ME. THAT THE ACCOUNTABILITY
OUGHT TO BE THE RESULTS THAT ARE
ACHIEVED RATHER THAN TELLING
COUNTIES OF WHAT THEY'RE GONNA
DO PROVIDING COUNTIES WITH
PROGRAMS THAT THE STATE WILL
FIND. WHAT COUNTIES COME UP WITH
THE SOLUTIONS- ALONG THE BED OF
THE ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES HAS
THIS. ROGUE GRAHAM THAT WOULD
GUIDE WHAT THEY WOULD DO
OBVIOUSLY THEY ALL BUY INTO IT
THERE ASSOCIATION CAME FORWARD
WITH THAT IT'S AN EXCELLENT
DOCUMENT- THE ROLE THAT THE
STATE CAN PLAY. IS TO PROVIDE
FUNDING YES BUT ACCOUNTABILITY
FOR THAT FUNDING BY VIRTUE OF
THE ACTUAL RESULTS THAT THEY
ACHIEVED. HOW MANY PEOPLE DO
THEY GET TO SHELTERS GET TO
TREATMENT AND- YEAH HOW MANY
PEOPLE DO THEY ACTUALLY GET TO
SELF SUFFICIENCY. ARE WE HAVE AN
AUDIT THAT THE STATE AUDITOR'S
GONNA DO I WAS INVOLVED IN THE
REQUEST FOR THAT AND I HOPE WE
SEE AN ASSESSMENT OF SO FAR HOW
MANY PEOPLE HAVE. GOTTEN THE
SELF SUFFICIENCY. I THANK THE
NUMBER OF FORTUNE IS PROBABLY
RATHER SMALL AT THIS POINT. BUT
PROVIDE THE A COUNTY AND THE
AUTHORITY TO PROVIDE THEM THE
RESOURCES AND THE AUTHORITY TO
COUNTIES- TO PURSUE THIS ISSUE
IN THE BEST WAY THAT THEY CAN
THE SOLUTIONS ARE GOING TO BE
DIFFERENT AND MODOC THEN THEY'RE
GOING TO BE OF LOS ANGELES. AND
SO THE STATE CAN HELP IN TERMS
OF ASSESSING THE RESULTS THAT A
COUNTIES TO TREAT AND REPORTING
ON THAT. AND WITH REGARD TO
COLLABORATION BETWEEN CITIES AND
COUNTIES. I WILL GRANT THAT-
THAT SUCCESS HAS BEEN BURIED
AROUND THE STATE BUT THE- THE
STATE GOVERNMENT CAN DO A LOT TO
ENCOURAGE. THAT GOOD
COLLABORATION- AND- WITH REGARD
TO- THE TESTIMONY OF THE
PANELISTS ON ON TV AND
SPECIFICALLY WITH REGARD TO THE
COUNTIES- AND WAS MENTIONED IN
THIS REPORT TO. ONGOING FUNDING
IS ESSENTIAL- GRAHAM LIKE THIS
CAN'T ADOPT A CHALLENGE LIKE
THIS CAN'T BE. SOLVED BY JUST
COMMITTING TO COUNTIES TWELVE
MONTHS AT A TIME FUNDING. WE
HAVE A SHORTNESS OF MENTAL
HEALTH BEDS THAT REQUIRES
CONSTRUCTION. WE HAVE TO KNOW
WHAT WE CAN DO AND OUT YEARS
RELATIVE TO SERVICES AND
TREATMENT- AND WE NEED
FLEXIBILITY. AND I CAN'T STOP MY
COMMENTS IN JULY SAY SOMETHING
THAT I'VE SAID MANY TIMES BEFORE
AND THAT IS. THE EXCLUSIVE
APPROACH OF HOUSING FIRST DOES
NOT PROVIDE FLEXIBILITY. I'M NOT
SAYING HOUSING FIRST DOESN'T
WORK IN SOME AREAS IT DOES. BUT
THERE ARE OTHER APPROACHES A
GOOD WORK AND THE OTHER
APPROACHES MANY OF THEM ARE
INELIGIBLE FOR STATE FUNDING
BECAUSE IT DOESN'T MEET ACTUALLY
HOUSING FIRST. SO ONGOING
FUNDING AND FLEXIBILITY IS
ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL I SAY WE
DON'T SPEND ANY MORE MONEY UNTIL
WE COME TO. A REALIZATION OF
WHAT HASN'T WORKED AND IN MY
OPINION THE SOLUTION TO THAT IS
GET THE COUNTIES TO BE THE
PRIMARY SERVICE PROVIDERS AGAIN
PROVIDE THEM THE RESOURCES
ASSESS THEIR RESULTS TOWARD THE
GOAL ENCOURAGE COLLABORATION
BETWEEN CITIES AND COUNTIES AND
I'VE GOT TO THINK THAT THAT'S
GOING TO PROVIDE. MORE
PRODUCTIVE RESULTS THAN WHAT
WE'VE BEEN DOING FOR THE LAST
FIVE YEARS. THANK YOU CENTER
CENTER CABALLERO. I THINK IT
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR I HAVE
SOME QUESTIONS QUESTIONS IN
TERMS OF- THE ACCOUNTABILITY
AND- AND TRANSPARENCY. ONE OF MY
FRUSTRATIONS IS THAT WHEN WE
FINALLY STARTED. FINDING.
HOMELESS SERVICES. WE DID IT WAS
PART OF THE BUDGET NEGOTIATION
IT WAS DONE KIND OF. AT THE TOP
OF OUR AND WE DECIDED TO
UTILIZED ASSIST SYSTEM THAT HAD
BEEN SET UP BY THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT THAT WAS TO FUND THE
CFCS- THE FAX ZERO SEASON MY
MIND ARE ARE. DIFFERENT
DEPENDING ON WHICH COUNTY YOU
LIVE IN AND NOT THE CHALLENGE
WITH THE COCS IS EVERYTHING IS
DONE IN PRIVATE. AS FAR AS I'VE
BEEN ABLE TO TELL IN THE COCS IN
MY REGION WHICH MEANS THAT- THEY
HAVE NONE OF THE- AB. THE END OF
THE CONFLICT CONFLICT OF
INTEREST. I PROTECTIONS THAT YOU
NORMALLY HAVE- AS A CITY WHEN WE
GOT MONEY THROUGH THE CDBG GRANT
PROGRAM- IT WAYS TRANSPARENT WE
GET PUBLIC HEARINGS ON TO
DISCUSS HOW WE WERE GOING TO
ALLOCATE THE MONEY. AND WE ALSO
COULD ASK HOW MUCH PEOPLE WERE
MAKING- IN IT FROM THE
DIFFERENT- ASIAN OF SERVICES SO
THAT WE HAD AN IDEA OF WHETHER
OR THE FACT THAT WE GOT A LOT OF
MONEY AND TO DO. A PROGRAM MEANT
THAT- THEIR SALARIES COULD BE
RAISED COMMENSURATE WITH THE
FACT THAT THAT THERE WAS FUNDING
AT THIS CITY LEVEL SO MY POINT I
GUESS MY QUESTION IS NUMBER ONE
WOOD- IT SHOULD THE MONEY GO TO
THE C. O. CAESAR SHOULD GO TO
THE COUNTIES AND CITIES IN
PARTNERSHIP- AT TWO WITH THEIR
WRISTS WITH THE REQUIREMENTS
THAT THERE BE PUBLIC HEARINGS
ABOUT HOW THE MONEY. SHOULD BE
SPENT ON THE NUMBER ONE ISSUE
THAT I MASSED AT WHEN I'M OUT
TALKING TO COMMUNITY GROUPS SAYS
WHAT ARE YOU DOING. WHAT DO YOU
WHAT'S THE STATE DOING FOR
HOUSING TO REDUCE THE HOMELESS
PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE NO CLUE
THAT THIS THE CITIES AND THE
COUNTIES ARE GETTING A LOT OF
MONEY- AND THE REASON FOR THAT
APART FROM THE FACT THAT THERE'S
NO MORE REPORTERS. IN THE NEWS
AT THE NEWSPAPER SAYS THAT THEY
JUST THERE'S NO PUBLIC HEARINGS
ON IT THAT WHERE WHERE AT LEAST
IN IN THE REGION THAT I
REPRESENT- SO- UP. PUBLIC
AWARENESS TRANSPARENCY SHOULD
THE MONEY GO TO THE CITIES AND
COUNTIES AND THEN- HOW DO WE-
MAKE SURE THAT THE PEOPLE WHO
ARE GETTING THE SERVICES. AND
THIS GOES TO NOT ONLY
ACCOUNTABILITY BUT ALSO. BROUGH
REWARDING GOOD GOOD BEHAVIOR AND
GOOD SERVICES HOW DO WE MAKE
SURE THAT THE PEOPLE THAT ARE
GETTING THE SERVICES OF THE
PEOPLE THAT REALLY NEED IT- I
HAPPEN TO KNOW SOME OF THAT. THE
STAFF THAT WORK IN THE AM.
HOMELESS SERVICE AREA AND SOME
OF THE COMPLAINTS THAT I'VE I'VE
HEARD IS THAT- IS THAT THE
SYSTEM IS RIGGED SO THAT IF YOU
CAN GET A FAMILY MEMBER AND THEY
CAN GET ONE OF THAT. THAT
APARTMENTS IT'S AVAILABLE. AS
OPPOSED TO SOMEONE WHO'S
HOMELESS OR HAS BEEN ON THE
STREETS FOR A LONG TIME. SO THAT
SO THAT YOUR DATA THAT'S
COLLECTED IS REALLY REFLECTIVE
OF THE HOMELESS POPULATION IT
AND IT'S NOT- REFLECTIVE OF- AB
TRAINED AND HAVE A GOOD OUTCOME-
SO- AS SUPERVISOR HARI I REALLY
APPRECIATED YOUR YOUR COMMENTS
IN REGARDS TO- YOUR COUNTY AND-
AND THE CITIES BUT I'M WONDERING
IF YOU. IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS IN
TERMS OF. WHERE THE MONEY SHOULD
GO AND THEN KIND OF THE
TRANSPARENCY WHETHER BROWN ACT-
ACT. AB APPLICATION TO THE
PROCESS WOULD BE GOOD IN TERMS
OF PUBLIC FIND BECAUSE PART OF
THAT PART OF THE ISSUE AND I
JUST VISITED- A HOMELESS.
FACILITY THAT WAS CREATED IN
SANTA BARBARA THAT THAT IS
REALLY INCREDIBLE. AND PART OF
THE SUCCESS OF THAT PROGRAM OUR
VOLUNTEERS IN THE COMMUNITY TO
COME IN AND DO. AND DO. MAKE
DONATIONS. AND AND MAKE SURE
THAT THAT THAT THAT. THE
RESIDENTS ARE HAVE WHAT THEY
NEED WHEN THEY COME IN OFF THE
STREETS AND SO. IT IT IT OCCURS
TO ME THAT THE ONLY WAY YOU GET
THAT KIND OF BY AND IT IS IF THE
PUBLIC KNOWS THAT THERE'S AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO
PARTICIPATE AND THAT THAT THE
OPPORTUNITY PARK TO PARTICIPATE
IS NOT. HANDING OUT SLEEPING
BAGS THAT THEN AT END UP ON THE
STREET AND CREATE PROBLEMS FOR
THE CITIES THAT THERE'S A REAL
PRACTICAL SOLUTION IN HOUSING.
SENATOR THANK YOU THOSE ARE ALL
REALLY GOOD POINTS AND GOOD
QUESTIONS AND- I'LL START WITH
THAT ALL OF SPEAK ABOUT THIS
FROM A REALLY ON THE GROUND
PERSPECTIVE- THAT FIRST OUR OUR
PROCESS IN OUR COUNTY IS PRETTY
PUBLIC AND I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT
THE MORE THE PUBLIC IS INVOLVED
IN THIS TRANSPARENCY BETTER
DECISIONS ARE MADE. THESE KIND
OF THINGS SHOULDN'T BE BACKROOM
DEALS- THERE NEEDS TO BE PUBLIC
PARK A LOT OF PUBLIC- VISIBILITY
ABOUT IT- I THINK WE KNOW THAT.
ALL TO ME WHEN WE GET LOCAL
OFFICIALS FROM CITIES AND
COUNTIES WORKING TOGETHER. WORK
WE'RE GENERALLY PRETTY GOOD AT
COMING UP WITH SOLUTIONS THAT
WORK YOU KNOW WORK IN URBAN
COUNTY URBAN SUBURBAN IN THE BAY
AREA IT'S GOING TO BE DIFFERENT
IN LA OR MONO- BUT- WHEN THE
STATE CAN BE MOST HELPFUL. AND
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DETERMINE. AS
PART OF A PLAN DOES THAT MONEY
GO TO A CITY OR COUNTY. BECAUSE
EVERY EVERY SORT OF. LOCAL
COUNTY NETWORK OF CITY AND
COUNTY OFFICIALS CAN DECIDE WHAT
MAKES SENSE- THAT THERE MAY BE
CITIES THAT THAT ARE WORKING
WITH THE COUNTY AND SAY WE'RE
GOING TO WORK ON THESE HOUSING
PROJECTS AND- THE PERMANENCE OF.
SUPPORTIVE HOUSING PROJECTS WILL
HELP BUILD- COUNTY YOU CAN COME
IN AND DO MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES
LIKE WE'RE WE'RE USING FOR
EXAMPLE A HALF CENT SALES TAX
THAT WE PASSED IN THE MIDDLE OF
THE PANDEMIC. AND WE'RE USING
SOME OF THAT MONEY FOR EIGHT
HOUSING TRUST FUND THAT WE
INVEST IN EVERY SINGLE YEAR. AND
WE'RE USING THAT TO CLOSE THE
GAP OF THE FEDERAL AND STATE
FUNDING WE'RE GETTING TO BILL
FIFTY UNITS OF PERMANENT
SUPPORTIVE HOUSING IN A CITY.
AND THE CITY SAID HEY WE DON'T
HAVE THE MONEY ON THIS PROJECT
BUT WE'RE GOING TO HELP YOU GET
THIS ENTITLED AND WE'RE GOING TO
SUPPORT IT- I'M- SO. AND THAT
WORK IN THAT CITY AND OTHER CITY
SAYING WE WANT TO HELP PUT MONEY
IN WITH YOU. SO I DON'T THINK
YOU HAVE TO IN ADVANCE SAY DOES
THIS DOES THE MONEY GO TO A CITY
OR COUNTY BUT IF YOU GIVE NOT
JUST THE INCENTIVE. BUT THE
STRUCTURE TO FOR CITIES AND
COUNTIES TO WORK BETTER TOGETHER
LOOK. SOME OF US WORK TOGETHER
BUT LOOK AT THE NUMBERS YOU AS
YOU'VE ALL SET THE NUMBERS
AREN'T GOING IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION WITH EVERYTHING WE'RE
DOING WHICH TELLS US THAT THE
SYSTEM ISN'T REALLY WORKING. SO
YOU AT THE STATE LEVEL THE
LEGISLATION CAN PLAY A MAJOR
ROLE IN HELPING US. WORK BETTER
TOGETHER WITH OUR COLLEAGUES AT
OTHER LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT. SO
IN SOME CASES THE MONEY MAY GO
TO THE COUNTY FOR SERVICES IN
OTHER CASES TO A CITY. BUT EVERY
AS AS OTHERS SPEAKERS ON THIS
PANEL OF SAID THERE'S NO ONE
SIZE THAT FITS ALL. SO YOUR
ABILITY. THAT'S TO GET US TO
WORK TOGETHER. AND HAD AND THEN
HAVE A SHOW YOU. ARE WE MAKING A
DENT IN THE NUMBER OF
INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE HOMELESS.
BECAUSE IS YOU KNOW MORE THAN
ANYONE. THERE'S DIFFERENT
REASONS THAT PEOPLE ARE HOMELESS
SOME IS MENTAL HEALTH SAID MISS
SUBSTANCE ABUSE SOME IS LOSS OF
A JOB YOU KNOW HOUSING COST.
MANY REASONS AND SO THE TYPES OF
THINGS WE NEED TO DO WITH CITIES
WILL THAT. WILL WILL IT TRY TO
ADDRESS THAT WHOLE CONTINUUM. OF
HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS- SO I HAVE
OPTIMISM THAT IF WE'RE WORKING
STRONGER TOGETHER. WE CAN WE CAN
WE CAN ACHIEVE MORE SUBSTANTIAL
RESULTS. CENTER IF I CAN TAKE IT
JUST CLICK SECONDS AND BUILD
UPON WITH- THE SUPERVISOR JUST
SENT TO- WELL I WON'T SPEAK
AGAINST YES YEAR CAESAR OR
COUNTIES HERE I DO FEEL. THE
NEED TO. ADVOCATE FOR CITIES AND
AS A FORMER MAYOR AND COUNCIL
MEMBER YOU KNOW VERY WELL.
CITIES ARE ON THE FRONT LINES OF
THIS AND SO ACCOUNTABLE BECAUSE
EVERYBODY KNOWS WHO THEIR MAYOR
IS. THERE JUST A HEIGHTENED
LEVEL OF. SENSITIVITY THERE WITH
CITIES WE ALSO HAVE LAND USE
AUTHORITY AND NOT MOST HIGHLY
URBANIZED AREAS. ARE DIRECTLY
IMPACTED AND WHEN INDIVIDUALS
DON'T GET THE SERVICES AND HELP
THEY NEED OR THE HOUSING THEY
NEED THIS AWFUL SOCIAL SERVICE
THAT. WHICH I THINK CENTER NEAR
LOWS MAINLY REFERRING TO HOW
WORKS ALL THESE TRADITIONAL
SOCIAL SERVICE PROGRAMS
TYPICALLY WOULD GO THROUGH THE
COUNTY. WHEN THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN
THERE IS A DUTY TO RESPOND JUST
LIKE EMERGENCY ROOM HAS EMTALA
REQUIREMENTS AND HAS TO TAKE
PEOPLE AND REGARDLESS OF STATUS
OR ABILITY TO PAY. OUR FIRST
RESPONDERS ARE POLICE OFFICERS
ARE EMTS OR FIREFIGHTERS BECOME
THAT LAST SOCIAL SERVICE NOT.
WHEN COMMUNITIES ARE CONCERNED
ON THINGS ESCALATE TO THE POINT
OF VIOLENCE OR OR TO AN ISSUE
WHERE A PUBLIC SAFETY THRESHOLD
IS NOT. SO IT'S ABOUT RESPECT I
THINK THAT'S WHERE CITIES REALLY
THOUGHT THE HIGH NEED TO STEP
INTO THE GAME. WE DO SITE
SHELTERS IN OUR CITIES RIGHT THE
LARGEST CITIES IS WHERE WE KNOW
THE IMPACTS OR SEE WHAT THE
MOST. AND THAT IS WHY WE
ADVOCATE VERY STRONGLY FOR THIS
MORNING BECAUSE IT REALLY IS A
LIFELINE. FOR US TO BE ABLE TO
KEEP THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE OFF THE
STREETS. SO I JUST BRING THAT UP
BECAUSE IT IS VERY UNIQUE TO THE
ISSUE OF CITIES. AND WHY THIS
FUNDING. IS SO IMPORTANT TO
CITIES. AND I DO THINK THAT A
DIFFERENCE IN MODEL COUNTY RIGHT
THERE MANY CAN. LIKE OUR WHICH-
WERE ONE POINT TWO MILLION
PEOPLE SO URBAN. BUT WE HAVE ONE
VEHICLE. CITY WE HAVE NINETEEN
CITIES THERE'S A LOT OF COUNTIES
LIKE THAT. AND I A RESPECT THAT
THAT YOU KNOW LARGE CITIES HAVE
A UNIQUE ROLE. AND ARE ON THE
FRONT LINES. MUCH OF THIS STATE
IS COMPOSED OF COUNTIES WHERE
YOU DON'T HAVE BIG CITIES IN
THAT COUNTY. AND THE PARTNERSHIP
BETWEEN CITIES AND COUNTY
BECOMES EVEN MORE IMPORTANT.
BECAUSE YOU NEED THAT
COOPERATION AMONG MANY MULTIPLE
MID SIZE CITIES. I THINK SENATOR
THIS. EXCHANGE IS ACTUALLY. A
GREAT EXAMPLE OF WHY WE CONTINUE
TO FOCUS ON A REGIONAL APPROACH
HERE I THINK IS. FRANKLY D. AS
IN IRAQ WHICH I WOULD LOVE TO
HEAR FROM MISSTATES REPRESENTS
THE EXTENT OF THE CARE FOR
SACRAMENTO AS WELL HER THOUGHTS
BUT ULTIMATELY WHEN WE THINK OF.
THE EXISTING RESOURCES AS A
SUPERVISOR MENTION THERE ARE
SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF RESOURCES
AT THE STATE LEVEL PROVIDED.
UNTIL SERVICE FINDS THE LAST
SEVENTEEN YEARS AND I THINK
REALLY TO MISTER ON THIS POINT.
ON SIGHTING WHICH LAND USE
AUTHORITY TRANSCENDS COUNTY AND
CITY. AUTHORITY AS WELL SO
LOOKING AGAIN TO THOSE
COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE. IN THE
FIFTIES AS IN A SENATOR YOU
RESOURCES AND MADE AVAILABLE ON
THE U. S. BASE IT. WILL HAVE A
ROLE TO PLAY HERE TO PAIR
BECAUSE ULTIMATELY OF WAITING
THIS. FOCUS ON. SILOS BUT
THERE'S A ADVANTAGES AND EVEN
THE KNOWLEDGE IN THE- POINT
THAT'S BEEN MADE ABOUT A
DIFFERENT KIND OF- CAPACITY.
CHALLENGES AS WELL SO THERE'S-
VERY TOUGH IN THE STATE OF FORTY
MILLION PEOPLE THAT A ONE SIZE
FITS ALL APPROACH HERE BUT- WE
JUST BRIEFLY ONE MY COLLEAGUE-
SPECIAL THIS YEAR SOME FROM HER
PERSPECTIVE ACTUALLY FROM LOCAL
GOVERNMENT. ARCHING ZIPPERS.
THANK YOU. SO AS MY COLLEAGUE
MENTIONED. I HAVE QUITE A BIT OF
LOCAL EXPERIENCE THAT I CAN SEE
TO AND WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO
ACTUALLY SPEAK UP THE ALL IN
SACRAMENTO EVENT DIMAS BEATS
HIGHLIGHTED- AND WOULD JUST LIKE
TO COMMEND THEIR- TREMENDOUS
EFFORTS AYE AT LOCAL
COORDINATION- AND IN COOPERATION
WITH ONE ANOTHER AND WHEN. I
WOKE UP MY ORGANIZATION WILL
CONTINUE TO USE AIR EITHER A
LOCAL HOMELESS ACTION PLAN AS
WELL AS THEIR THEIR MEMORANDUM
OF UNDERSTANDING WITH THEIR
RESPECTIVE ENTITIES. AS AN
EXAMPLE TO COMMUNITIES WHO WHO.
MIGHT STRUGGLE I IN IN THOSE
AREAS OF COLLABORATION. PERFECT
CENTERS ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS. SEEING NONE. WELL THIS
IS AN OPEN ITEM I APPRECIATE THE
RATHER ROBUST- CONVERSATION I'M
SURE THE CONVERSATION WILL
CONTINUE AS WE MOVE MOVE FORWARD
WITH THE BUDGET PROCESS I THINK
THERE WAS SOME. EXCELLENT IDEAS
THAT WERE DISCUSSED AND I TRUST
THE ADMINISTRATION WILL TAKE
THOSE INTO ACCOUNT AS WE MOVE
FORWARD. THANK YOU. THANK YOU TO
OUR PARTICIPANTS REMOTELY
EXCELLENT COMMENTS AND
CONVERSATION. LET'S NOW MOVE-
INTO THE SECTION WHERE WE TAKE
PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE ITEMS ON
OUR AGENDA. FOR THOSE ON THE
REMOTE TELECONFERENCE LINE-
TODAY'S PARTICIPANT NUMBER IS
EIGHT SEVEN SEVEN TWO TWO SIX.
EIGHT ONE SIX THREE AND THE
ACCESS CODE IS 718-778-7187
SEVEN EIGHT- DUE TO CONSTRAINTS
REGARDING THE LENGTH OF HEARINGS

WHICH WE SINGLE EXPERIENCE
FREQUENTLY. AND OF COURSE
CLEANING PROTOCOLS THE COMMITTEE
CHAIRS AROUND HERE MAY INSTITUTE
. GOING TO- AT THIS POINT SIMPLY
ASK THE PARTICIPANTS EITHER IN
PERSON AND CERTAINLY ON THE LINE
TO. TRY TO BE AS BRIEF AS
POSSIBLE I DO RESEARCH RESERVE
THE RIGHT TO- IMPOSE A TIME
LIMIT FOR. PUBLIC COMMENT- TENDS
TO GO ALONG SO FIRST LET'S BEGIN
WITH ANY WITNESSES HERE IN THE
HEARING ROOM PLEASE STEP FORWARD

PARTNERSHIP- JUST ON ONE ISSUE
UNDER ITEM TWENTY FOUR WE JUST
WANT TO OPPOSE THE- IDEA OF
ALLOWING FOR PROFIT ENTITIES TO
APPLY FOR THE CERNER JOHNSON A
FORMER HOUSING GRANT PROGRAM. I
BUT MORE GENERALLY I WANT TO

HOUSING JUSTICE BUDGET ASKS THAT
MANY ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE

DISCUSSION ABOUT ACCOUNTABILITY
I'M PART OF A COALITION CALLED
BRING CALIFORNIA HOME WHICH
BRINGS TOGETHER SERVICE
PROVIDERS. LOCAL JURISDICTIONS
PEOPLE EXCLUDE EXPERIENCED
HOMELESSNESS AND ADVOCATES
ACROSS THE STATE AROUND
HOMELESSNESS. AND WHAT WE'VE
REALLY BEEN HEARING ABOUT
ACCOUNTABILITY IS A COUPLE
THINGS- THE NEED FOR
ACCOUNTABILITY ON THE STATE AS
WELL WHICH CAME UP TODAY. HAVING
THE STATE SET ITS OWN GOALS
REALLY ASKING THE STATE TO ALIGN
SOME OF OUR FUNDING ACROSS
PROGRAMS AND REDUCE THE
ADMINISTRATIVE BURDENS ON LOCAL
SYSTEMS- ECHOING THE NEED FOR
REGIONAL ACCOUNTABILITY
APPRECIATE A LOT OF THE THOUGHTS
THAT SEE SECONDS PUT TOGETHER-
WHICH ARE REALLY REPRESENTED IN
A PIECE OF LEGISLATION THAT OUR
COALITION IS BEHIND EIGHTY SEVEN
NINE NINE WHICH WORKING ON WITH
ASSEMBLY MEMBER THREE OF US. AND
THEN FINALLY ACCOUNTABILITY TO
PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS- WE REALLY WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE INVESTING
IN LONG TERM SOLUTIONS THAT
WORK. LONG TERM SOLUTIONS REALLY
REQUIRE THOSE LONG TERM ON GOING
INVESTMENTS- AND WE ALSO WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE
ELIMINATING SOME OF THE
DISPARITIES THAT WE SEE IN OUR
SYSTEM AND CONTINUING TO SEE
RACIAL EQUITY AT THE CENTER. SO
AS WE'RE LOOKING ABOUT
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR OUTCOMES
KEEPING THAT IN MIND AND
DRIVING- INCENTIVES TO REDUCE
DISPARITIES. AND THEN FINALLY
MAKING SURE AN ACCOUNTABILITY
WE'RE NOT PUNISHING PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS- WHEN
THEIR LOCAL JURISDICTIONS AREN'T
STEPPING UP THAT'S WHAT MAKES IS
STILL CAUTIOUS ABOUT TAKING
FUNDS AWAY FROM JURISDICTIONS-
BECAUSE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE THE
MOST IMPACTED ARE THOSE WHO ARE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. SO
