Authorize staff to lease motels for temporary homeless housing

Housing & HomelessnessHousing

In Plain English

The city received $8.6 million in state funding to move 115 homeless residents from dangerous freeway encampments into stable housing. County shelters are at capacity, so the city needs temporary motel rooms while case workers help people find permanent homes. If approved, staff can identify suitable motels and negotiate lease terms for council approval later.
