This is made possible through a Cooperation Agreement between the City and County, which expires June 30, 2021.

To ensure the City's continued participation in the CDBG Program, the City Council must adopt a resolution authorizing the automatic renewal of the Cooperation Agreement. Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council adopt the Resolution and authorize the City Manager to execute the necessary documents. Discussion: The City currently receives an allocation of federal CDBG funds each fiscal year through the County's CDBG Program. This is made possible through a Cooperation Agreement between the City and County, which expires June 30, 2021. Historically, the City has used CDBG funds to finance social services programs such as 2-1-1 San Diego and ElderHelp of San Diego, the North County Bridge to Housing Network to help reduce homelessness and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility improvements in city-owned parks. To continue participation in the County's CDBG Program, the City Council must adopt a resolution authorizing the automatic renewal of the Cooperation Agreement prior to June 2, 2020. The automatic renewal of the Cooperation Agreement between the County and the City will allow for the City's continued participation in the CDBG Program for the qualification periods of July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022; July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023; and July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024. 1 of 4 April 21, 2020, Item #2Environmental Review: This item is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act review.
