Committee discusses $50,000 diversion program pilot; plans $25,000 pilots and fund transfer
Summary
Committee members discussed launching a Lease Behavior Modification Diversion Program using $50,000 from the budget, with an initial plan to split funding into two $25,000 pilot grants; staff were asked to prepare a fund transfer for consideration at the February or March council meeting.
The committee discussed a proposed Lease Behavior Modification Diversion Program and the logistics of deploying $50,000 allocated for the initiative. The committee chair said the preference is to divide the funding into two $25,000 pilot projects so the city can test the model on a single property before committing full funding to multiple sites.
Committee members asked staff to begin a fund transfer so at least $25,000 can be made available rapidly for an initial pilot. The chair asked the Office of Community Services to coordinate with staff (Ayesha) and Assistant City Manager Vicki Becklin to begin the transfer and to prepare details for a council vote at either the February or March meeting, noting the funds must be used before the end of the current budget cycle.
No formal vote or grant award was recorded at the committee meeting; staff said they would follow up with a fund-transfer request and other implementation details for future council action.
