Board approves HSH grant amendments and Homekey funds for supportive housing at 685 Ellis Street
Summary
Resolutions authorizing homelessness prevention funding through Mission Neighborhood Centers and authorizing Homekey acquisition funds for 685 Ellis Street were adopted. The board approved extending and increasing a Mission Neighborhood Centers grant and authorized HSH to accept California HCD Homekey funds and commit local matching dollars.
The Board of Supervisors adopted two HSH-related grant resolutions on Oct. 22 that authorize additional funding and match commitments for homelessness prevention and permanent supportive housing acquisition.
Item 2 approved a first amendment to the agreement between Mission Neighborhood Centers and the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing (HSH). The amendment extends the grant term by 36 months (through June 30, 2028) and increases the agreement by approximately $13.1 million for a new total of about $20.6 million. The clerk read the resolution into the record; the measure was adopted under the consent procedure.
Item 3 authorized HSH to execute a standard agreement with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to accept and expend roughly $18.2 million in anticipated Homekey grant funds for acquisition of the property at 685 Ellis Street for permanent supportive housing and to support operations through June 30, 2026. The resolution also authorizes HSH to commit approximately $4.1 million in required local matching funds and to provide at least 15 years of operating subsidy for the acquired property; it affirms CEQA findings. The clerk noted the resolution and the board adopted it.
