On or about June 1, 2020, the California Department of Housing and Community Development released a Notice of funding Availability (NOFA) for the Federal Emergency Solutions Grant Program Coronavirus (ESG-CV). The funding was allocated to the Homeless and Poverty Action Coalition (HPAC) for the purpose of preventing, preparing for, and responding to coronavirus. On or about June 24, 2020, HPAC voted to make Yolo County the administrative entity for the ESG-CV funds. On or about December 22, 2020, the County entered into State Agreement No. 20-ESGCV1-0035 (“State Contract”) with the Department of Housing and Community Development (“Department”), via the Department’s administration of the Federal CARES Act Emergency Solutions Grants (“ESG-CV”) Program, pursuant to the provisions of 2020 Federally enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, Title XII, Homeless Assistance Grants Section (“CARES Act”) and any waivers including the HUD Mega-Waiver dated April 1, 2020, and where not superseded by the CARES Act, pursuant to the provisions of 42 USC 11371; 42 USC 11378; 24 CFR Part 576; all as shall be amended from time to time.
On or about June 9, 2021, the Department of Housing and Community Development amended the State Contract to add ESG-CV Round 2 funding
Approval of this Agreement will allow Friends of the Mission to provide capital improvements to the emergency shelter located at East Beamer Way. An outdoor covered shade structure will be built to provide a sizeable shaded area where individuals can seek temporary shelter from the elements. The shade structure will include heating towers, water fountains, and thick curtains to provide extra protection from the weather.
Additionally, this funding will allow a small outdoor intake room to be built and security fencing around a propane tank located near the shade structure in order to provide additional protections for clients as they socially distance, as well as the creation of a gravel parking area for shelter guests.
