County will apply for Emergency Solutions Grant to support rapid rehousing
Summary
Community services staff said Codington County will apply for up to $80,000 from the South Dakota Housing Authority (HUD funds) for rapid rehousing and homeless prevention; staff expect to request roughly $65,000 and match with salary/existing funds.
Sarah from the community services office told commissioners that the Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) administered by the South Dakota Housing Authority and ultimately HUD provides funding for rapid rehousing (for people who are literally homeless) and homeless-prevention assistance for people at risk. She said an applicant may request up to $80,000; Codington County is preparing an application likely in the $65,000—6,000 range and will meet the required match through salary and other existing funding.
Commissioners asked whether the funding source is HUD and whether ICAP previously covered the county; Sarah said ICAP had previously administered ESG for the county but is no longer doing so, which is why the county is preparing to apply directly. The board approved the motion to allow the community services office to submit an ESG application.
