Explanation

BACKGROUND This legislation authorizes an amendment to Ordinance No. 2357-2023, passed by City Council on September 11, 2023, to allow for the correction of the distribution of the amounts funded on each line per the corrected accounting codes in the attachment to this ordinance which will reduce the amount allotted for administration purposes by $2,071.00 and increase the Supportive Services portion by the same amount.

Ordinance No. 2357-2023, passed by City Council on September 11, 2023, authorized the Director of Development to execute a Subrecipient Agreement- Not-for Profit Service Contract with Equitas Health, Inc., in an amount up to $111,555.38 to provide rental assistance and supportive services to low income individuals and or households living with HIV/AIDS and to process payment for expenses incurred from 2021 to present that had not been paid by CPH.

It was recently discovered that, due to a clerical error the distribution of the funded amounts were incorrect and it allocated too much money for the administrative portion and not enough for the Supportive Services portion of the agreement.

All other aspects of the original ordinance 2357-2023 will remain the same, only the correction of the distribution of the amounts funded on each line need corrected.

Emergency action is requested to address the continued impacts of the COVID-19 health emergency and to provide additional rental and supportive services to Housing Opportunities for People with AIDS ("HOPWA") eligible households’ experiencing challenges as a result of COVID-19 hereby preserving the health and/or safety of low income individuals or households living with HIV/AIDS within the allotted performance time period. The period of performance ends November 18th, 2023.

Contract Compliance: The vendor number is 004721 and contract compliance date end date is 01/25/2024.
