DATE: October 15, 2019
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Sara Somogyi, Director of Recreation and Community Services
SUBJECT: COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES HOMELESS SERVICES GRANT IN THE
AMOUNT OF $292,200, AND CONTRACT WITH THE COUNTY OF LOS
ANGELES FOR CITY PLANNING GRANT – YEAR 2 IMPLEMENTATION
OF CITIES HOMELESSNESS PLANS (STATEMENT OF WORK);
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH THE CITY OF SOUTH
PASADENA FOR A MULTIJURISDICTIONAL IMPLEMENTATION OF
HOMELESS SERVICES; AND CONTRACT WITH UNION STATION
HOMELESS SERVICES FOR CASE MANAGEMENT
Recommendation: Accept and Approve
SUMMARY
The City of Arcadia intends to partner with the City of South Pasadena for a
multijurisdictional implementation of homeless services. This partnership developed out
of necessity, as the cities did not meet the individual service demand threshold to
receive funding for homeless services alone.
The Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena applied for and have been awarded a
multijurisdictional implementation homeless services grant for case management,
including a case manager, motel vouchers, and rapid rehousing in the amount of
$292,200, which is reimbursable for services rendered.
It is recommended the City Council accept the County of Los Angeles Homeless
Services Grant in the amount of $292,200; and approve, and authorize and direct the
City Manager to execute a Contract with the County of Los Angeles for City Planning
Grant – Year 2 Implementation of Cities Homelessness Plans (Statement of Work);
Memorandum of Understanding with the City of South Pasadena for a Multijurisdictional
implementation of Homeless Services; and Contract with Union Station Homeless
Services for Case Management.
BACKGROUND
On June 13, 2017, the County of Los Angeles Board of Supervisors approved Measure
H funding allocations in the support of the County’s Homelessness Initiative strategies
to prevent and combat homelessness in the County. Recognizing the important role

cities have in supporting the Homeless Initiative, the Board of Supervisors allocated one
time funding for individual cities to develop a plan to address homelessness in their
respective cities. The City submitted an application for a City Planning Grant to prevent
and combat homelessness and was awarded $30,000 to create a city specific homeless
plan.
In August 2018, City Council approved Arcadia’s Five Year Homelessness Plan. The
goals were as follows: Educate City Staff, Key Stakeholders, and the Community about
Homelessness; Strengthen Local Capacity to Support Countywide Outreach; Connect
People Experiencing Homelessness to the County’s Coordinated Entry System (“CES”);
Explore the Creation of Temporary and Permanent Housing Resources; Coordinate with
Regional Partners on Homelessness Plan.
In May 2019, the Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena submitted a multijurisdictional
application seeking funds for an onsite case manager, motel vouchers, and rapid re-
housing. Between the Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena, 25 people experiencing
homelessness were identified in the 2018 Point in Time (“PIT”) count, which qualified the
Cities to receive funding. The Cities selected Union Station Homeless Services
(“USHS”) as the lead consultant to provide the Case Management services. USHS is
an approved Measure H contractor currently providing services related to the Los
Angeles County Homelessness Initiative Strategies.
Since completing the Five Year Homeless Plan to Combat and Prevent Homelessness
in 2018, City staff has been diligently implementing the action plan. Arcadia has
identified a City homeless contact, established a local team of key stakeholders, created
new community resources, office space has been designated for a homeless case
manager, and additional Measure H funds have been allocated towards combatting
homelessness in Arcadia during this grant allocation period ending in February 2021.
DISCUSSION
The multijurisdictional Homeless Plan Implementation Grant award includes an onsite
case manager who will work in each City 2.5 days a week, motel vouchers, and rapid
re-housing for the Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena. With the approval of the
Contract with the County of Los Angeles (Exhibit “A”), the Memorandum of
Understanding with South Pasadena (Exhibit “B”), and Contract with Union Station
Homeless Services (Exhibit “C”), January 2020 is the anticipated start date for the Case
Manager.
The Case Manager will dedicate 2.5 days per week to serve the Arcadia Community and
will be located at the Arcadia Public Library. The Case Manager will assess the specific
needs of each client and arrange, coordinate, monitor, and advocate for housing, and
other services to meet the individual’s needs. The Case Manager will have extensive
knowledge of available resources to link individuals experiencing homelessness with
necessary programs, services and adequate housing options including access to the
Homelessness Plan Implementation Grant

CES. Access to the CES will allow coordination efforts from providers, create a real-
time list of individuals experiencing homelessness in our communities, and a means to
effectively and efficiently match people to available resources and services. This also
ensures each contact with an individual is not treated as a new encounter and treatment
can continue from the last contact, reducing the chances for duplication of efforts.
The motel voucher program addresses the current, severe lack of shelter beds by
utilizing a voucher system for individuals, as well as families until they are linked to
other available resources by the case manager. Motel vouchers increase bed
availability, offering flexibility to best serve individuals with varying needs and scaling up
or down as needed. Each person identified for this program will complete a CES
assessment and will be prioritized for a voucher based on vulnerability score and fit as
indicated through a clinical assessment. Priority will focus on high visibility
street/encampment homeless, those who are difficult to engage, and others for whom a
group setting would not work well. The designated funds will implement a motel voucher
program, which will fund, on average, four rooms per week. Two motel vouchers per
week will be designated for Arcadia and two motel vouchers per week will be
designated for South Pasadena. If one of the cities does not utilize all of the vouchers,
the other city will have the opportunity to use them in order to use the resource.
In addition, the Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena will implement a Rapid
Rehousing (“RRH”) program. RRH is an intervention including move in and rental
assistance designed to help individuals and families quickly exit homelessness, return
to housing in the community, and not become without a place to live again in the near
future. RRH typically provides up to 9-12 months rental assistance, which can be
extended based on an assessment of participant’s needs. Each person identified for
this program will complete a CES assessment and will be prioritized for RRH based on
lower and medium acuity score as indicated through a clinical assessment. Priority will
focus on individuals/families, who have a source of income or who are working on
increasing income. Participants will receive assistance with the lease process,
employment, life skills, and community integration to help promote retention. The goal is
to partner with USHS to recruit a minimum of four landlords/property owners interested
in participating in RRH with a goal of serving 6-9 households during the contract term.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
This proposed action does not constitute a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (“CEQA”), and it can be seen with certainty that it will have no impact on the
environment. Thus, this matter is exempt under CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Recreation and Community Services budget includes $37,000 for the oversite and
operation of the Homeless Plan and implementation of the grant. No additional funds
are necessary to complete the project.

The City of Arcadia is the lead agency for the multijurisdictional grant with the City of
South Pasadena and Los Angeles County. The City of Arcadia will accept up to
$292,200 to combat homelessness for the Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena, of
which $163,200 will be reserved for the City of Arcadia while $129,000 will be reserved
for the City of South Pasadena. Out of the $163,200 designated for Arcadia, $45,600
will be allocated for the in-house part time Case Manager, $66,300 for motel vouchers,
and $51,300 for rapid rehousing. Arcadia will manage and process all payments for the
multijurisdictional grant with Los Angeles County and Union Station Homeless Services.
If there are unused multijurisdictional implementation grant funds in either community,
the other City will have the opportunity to provide additional motel vouchers and rapid
rehousing to combat homelessness to their community.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Accept the County of Los Angeles Homeless Services Grant in the amount of
$292,200; and approve, and authorize and direct the City Manager to execute a
Contract with the County of Los Angeles for City Planning Grant – Year 2

person, partnership, corporation or other entity which
has a contract with the County or a subcontract with a

aggregate sum of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) or

exception to the Jury Service Program. In either event,
the contractor shall immediately implement a written
policy consistent with the Jury Service Program. The
County may also require, at any time during the
Contract and at its sole discretion, that the contractor
demonstrate, to the County’s satisfaction that the

time to time, when such action is deemed by the County, in
its sole discretion, to be in its best interest. Termination of
work hereunder shall be effected by notice of termination to

work is terminated and the date upon which such
termination becomes effective. The date upon which such
termination becomes effective shall be no less than ten (10)
days after the notice is sent.
8.42.2 After receipt of a notice of termination and except as
otherwise directed by the County, the contractor shall:

satisfactorily perform any task, deliverable,
service, or other work required either under this
Contract; or
8.43.1.3 Contractor fails to demonstrate a high probability

Implementation Homelessness Plan - CPG Y2 Page 42
AO-19-6
Contract and in either case, fails to demonstrate

County for any and all excess costs incurred by the County,
as determined by the County, for such similar goods and
services. The contractor shall continue the performance of
this Contract to the extent not terminated under the
provisions of this paragraph.
8.43.3 Except with respect to defaults of any subcontractor, the
contractor shall not be liable for any such excess costs of

God or of the public enemy, acts of the County in either its
sovereign or contractual capacity, acts of Federal or State
governments in their sovereign capacities, fires, floods,
epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight
embargoes, and unusually severe weather; but in every
case, the failure to perform must be beyond the control and
without the fault or negligence of the contractor. If the

subcontractor, and if such default arises out of causes
beyond the control of both the contractor and subcontractor,
and without the fault or negligence of either of them, the
contractor shall not be liable for any such excess costs for
failure to perform, unless the goods or services to be
furnished by the subcontractor were obtainable from other
sources in sufficient time to permit the contractor to meet
the required performance schedule. As used in this
paragraph, the term "subcontractor(s)" means
subcontractor(s) at any tier.

STATEMENT OF WORK
Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena Multi-Jurisdictional Proposal
City Homelessness Plan Implementation Grant
Section I. Overview
On August 17, 2015, in response to the growing crisis of homelessness, the Los
Angeles County Board of Supervisors launched the Homeless Initiative (HI) to prevent
and combat homelessness which continues to pervade our communities. An
unprecedented collaborative planning process resulted in a comprehensive plan
consisting of 47 strategies, with four more strategies subsequently added. Recognizing
the need to sustain the HI strategies, the Board of Supervisors approved the Measure
H ordinance that identifies 21 of the 51 HI strategies as eligible for funding through
Measure H. On March 7, 2017, the voters approved Measure H.
Since the inception of the HI in 2015, collaboration and engagement with the 88 cities
in the County has been a major priority for the County. Cities play a critical role in
ensuring that the impact of these strategies is maximized. Cities have jurisdiction over
housing and land use for about 90% of the countywide population, and thus play a vital
role in developing affordable housing and interim housing.
In 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved funding to cities to develop their own
homelessness plans. In 2018, participating cities submitted their homelessness plans.
In September 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved $9 million in Measure H
funding for the HI and United Way Home for Good Funders Collaborative to issue a
Request for Proposals (RFP) for the cities to implement their homelessness plans,
either as individual cities or multi-jurisdictional partners.
Based on the 2019 Point-in-Time Homeless Count (PIT Count) conducted by the Los
Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), the cities of Arcadia and South
Pasadena have a combined homeless count of 91 individuals and family members.
Since completing their Plans to Combat and Prevent Homelessness in 2018, both cities
have been working to implement the action items in their respective plans. South
Pasadena has identified a Homeless Coordinator and has undergone extensive
training on homeless outreach, increased collaboration with LAHSA, enhanced existing
partnerships with service providers and faith groups, increased collaboration across
city departments with regard to homelessness, and participated in various other
activities and forums. Arcadia has identified a city homeless contact, established a local
team of key stakeholders has been established, new community resources have been
created, and office space has been designated for a homeless case manager.
EXHIBIT A
STATEMENT OF WORK
Section II. Objectives and Program Description
☒Priority Area 1 - Increase the supply of supportive and interim housing for people
experiencing homelessness.
☒Priority Area 2 - Enhance the effectiveness of County service systems for those
experiencing and/or at-risk of homelessness.
Priority Area 1
The Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena Funds will implement a new interim housing
(Motel Voucher) program, which will fund on average, four rooms per week. Two motel
vouchers per week will be designated f or Arcadia and two motel vouchers will be
designated for South Pasadena. If one of the cities does not utilize all of the vouchers,
the other multijurisdictional partner will have the opportunity to use them in order to get
more people off the streets regionally.
In addition, the Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena will implement a Rapid Re-Housing
(RRH) program that will support up to four households at any given time, with a goal of
serving 6-9 households during the contract term. As appropriate, clients provided interim
housing would be linked to and served through the RRH Program to ensure access to
permanent housing resources. The Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena will partner
with Union Station Homeless Services & LAHSA housing locators to recruit a minimum
of four landlords/property owners interested in participating in RRH. These will be newly
designated units or rooms available for RRH within the local city limits and the San Gabriel
Valley region.
These programs support County Homeless Initiative Strategies B3 (Partner with Cities to
Expand Rapid Re-Housing) and E8 (Enhance the Emergency Shelter System).
Priority Area 2
The Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena will utilize County Funding for a dedicated
Case Manager who will provide services in safe and highly accessible and visible
locations. The Case Manager with have strong knowledge of available resources to link
people experiencing homelessness with needed programs, services, and housing
options. The Case Manager will assess the specific needs of each cl ient and arrange,
coordinate, monitor, and advocate for housing and other services to meet the individual’s
needs.
This program supports County Homeless Initiative Strategies D5 (Support for Homeless
Case Managers) and E7 (Strengthen the Coordinated Entry System).

Title 2 ADMINISTRATION
Chapter 2.203.010 through 2.203.090 CONTRACTOR EMPLOYEE JURY SERVICE
2.203.010 Findings.
The board of supervisors makes the following findings. The county of Los Angeles allows its permanent, full -
time employees unlimited jury service at their regular pay. Unfortunately, many businesses do not offer or
are reducing or even eliminating compensation to employees who serve on juries. This creates a potential
financial hardship for employees who do not receive their pay when called to jury service, and those
employees often seek to be excused from having to serve. Although changes in the court rules make it more
difficult to excuse a potential juror on grounds of financial hardship, potential jurors continue to be excused
on this basis, especially from longer trials. This reduces the number of potential jur ors and increases the
burden on those employers, such as the county of Los Angeles, who pay their permanent, full -time
employees while on juror duty. For these reasons, the county of Los Angeles has determined that it is
appropriate to require that the businesses with which the county contracts possess reasonable jury service
policies. (Ord. 2002-0015 § 1 (part), 2002)
2.203.020 Definitions.
The following definitions shall be applicable to this chapter:

B.“Employee” means any California resident who is a full-time employee of a contractor under the laws
of California.
C.“Contract” means any agreement to provide goods to, or perform services for or on behalf of, the

2.A contract where federal or state law or a condition of a federal or state program mandates the
use of a particular contractor; or
3.A purchase made through a state or federal contract; or
4.A monopoly purchase that is exclusive and proprietary to a specific manufacturer, distributor,
or reseller, and must match and inter-member with existing supplies, equipment or systems
maintained by the county pursuant to the Los Angeles County Purchasing Policy and
Procedures Manual, Section P-3700 or a successor provision; or
5.A revolving fund (petty cash) purchase pursuant to the Los Angeles County Fiscal Manual,
Section 4.4.0 or a successor provision; or
6.A purchase card purchase pursuant to the Los Angeles County Purchasing Policy and
Procedures Manual, Section P-2810 or a successor provision; or

2.203.040 Contractor Jury Service Policy.
A contractor shall have and adhere to a written policy that provides that its employees shall receive from the
contractor, on an annual basis, no less than five days of regular pay for actual jury service. The policy may
provide that employees deposit any fees received for such jury service with the contractor or that the

(part), 2002)

handicap or familial status exclude any person from participation in, deny any
person the benefits of, or subject any person to discrimination under any program or
activity funded in whole or in part with Measure H funds.
b.Sub-Recipient shall not under any program or activity funded in whole or in part
with Measure H funds, on the ground of race, color, religion, national origin, sex,
handicap or familial status:
(1) Deny any facilities, services, financial aid or other benefits provided under the

requirement or condition which the individual must meet in order to be
provided any facilities, services, or other benefit provided under the program
or activity.
(6) Deny a client an opportunity to participate in a program or activity as an
employee.
c.Sub-Recipient may not utilize criteria or methods of administration which have the
effect of subjecting individuals to discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion,
national origin, sex, handicap, or familial status or have the effect of defeating or

Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena Multi-Jurisdictional Proposal
City Homelessness Plan Implementation Grant
Section I. Overview
On August 17, 2015, in response to the growing crisis of homelessness, the Los
Angeles County Board of Supervisors launched the Homeless Initiative (HI) to
prevent and combat homelessness which continues to pervade our communities. An
unprecedented collaborative planning process resulted in a comprehensive plan
consisting of 47 strategies, with four more strategies subsequently added.
Recognizing the need to sustain the HI strategies, the Board of Supervisors approved
the Measure H ordinance that identifies 21 of the 51 HI strategies as eligible for
funding through Measure H. On March 7, 2017, the voters approved Measure H.
Since the inception of the HI in 2015, collaboration and engagement with the 88 cities
in the County has been a major priority for the County. Cities play a critical role in
ensuring that the impact of these strategies is maximized. Cities have jurisdiction
over housing and land use for about 90% of the countywide population, and thus play
a vital role in developing affordable housing and interim housing.
In 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved funding to cities to develop their own
homelessness plans. In 2018, participating cities submitted their homelessness
plans. In September 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved $9 million in Measure
H funding for the HI and United Way Home for Good Funders Collaborative to issue a
Request for Proposals (RFP) for the cities to implement their homelessness plans,
either as individual cities or multi-jurisdictional partners.
Based on the 2019 Point-in-Time Homeless Count (PIT Count) conducted by the Los
Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), the cities of Arcadia and South
Pasadena have a combined homeless count of 91 individuals and family members.
Since completing their Plans to Combat and Prevent Homelessness in 2018, both
cities have been working to implement the action items in their respective plans.
South Pasadena has identified a Homeless Coordinator and has undergone
extensive training on homeless outreach, increased collaboration with LAHSA,
enhanced existing partnerships with service providers and faith groups, increased
collaboration across city departments with regard to homelessness, and participated
in various other activities and forums. Arcadia has identified a city homeless contact,
established a local team of key stakeholders has been established, new community
resources have been created, and office space has been designated for a homeless
case manager.
Section II. Objectives and Program Description
☒Priority Area 1 - Increase the supply of supportive and interim housing for people
experiencing homelessness.
EXHIBIT A
STATEMENT OF WORK
2
☒Priority Area 2 - Enhance the effectiveness of County service systems for those
experiencing and/or at-risk of homelessness.
Priority Area 1
The Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena Funds will implement a new interim housing
(Motel Voucher) program, which will fund on average, four rooms per week. Two motel
vouchers per week will be designated for Arcadia and two motel vouchers will be
designated for South Pasadena. If one of the cities does not utilize all of the vouchers,
the other multijurisdictional partner will have the opportunity to use them in order to get
more people off the streets regionally.
In addition, the Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena will implement a Rapid Re-
Housing (RRH) program that will support up to four households at any given time, with a
goal of serving 6-9 households during the contract term. As appropriate, clients
provided interim housing would be linked to and served through the RRH Program to
ensure access to permanent housing resources. The Cities of Arcadia and South
Pasadena will partner with Union Station Homeless Services & LAHSA housing locators
to recruit a minimum of four landlords/property owners interested in participating in
RRH. These will be newly designated units or rooms available for RRH within the local
city limits and the San Gabriel Valley region.
These programs support County Homeless Initiative Strategies B3 (Partner with Cities
to Expand Rapid Re-Housing) and E8 (Enhance the Emergency Shelter System).
Priority Area 2
The Cities of Arcadia and South Pasadena will utilize County Funding for a dedicated
Case Manager who will provide services in safe and highly accessible and visible
locations. The Case Manager with have strong knowledge of available resources to link
people experiencing homelessness with needed programs, services, and housing
options. The Case Manager will assess the specific needs of each client and arrange,
coordinate, monitor, and advocate for housing and other services to meet the
individual’s needs.
This program supports County Homeless Initiative Strategies D5 (Support for Homeless
Case Managers) and E7 (Strengthen the Coordinated Entry System).
