Staff Report
August 2, 2022
TOPIC: Safe Mobility Santa Ana Planning and Engineering Services
AGENDA TITLE
Approve an Agreement with KTUA for Traffic Planning and Engineering Services for the
Safe Mobility Santa Ana Plan Update in the Amount of $180,000 for a up to a Five-year
Term (Non -General Fund)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with KTUA, for transportation/traffic
planning and engineering services for the Safe Mobility Santa Ana (SMSA) plan update,
for a three-year period beginning August 2, 2022, and ending on August 1, 2025, with the
option to extend for up to a two-year period, in a total aggregate amount not to exceed
$180,000, subject to non -substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City
Attorney.
DISCUSSION
On August 30, 2021, the Public Works Agency issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for
contractors to provide transportation/traffic planning and engineering services to update
the existing Safe Mobility Santa Ana (SMSA) plan (Exhibit 1). The goal of the SMSA
update is to reevaluate citywide traffic safety, identify new areas of concern, contributing
factors and patterns, recommend and prioritize improvements, and analyze traffic
collisions of pedestrians and bicyclists, to reduce the number of persons killed or injured
in collisions.
The RFP was advertised on the City's online bid management and publication system,
with bids due on September 20, 2021. Six proposals were received and evaluated by a
three -member panel of Public Works Agency Staff selection. The scores were based on
criteria as outlined in the RFP. Listed below are the responding contractors and their
ranking:

In accordance with the RFP, staff recommends awarding the contract to KTUA in an
amount not to exceed $180,000 for up to a five-year term. (Exhibit 2) The consultant has
demonstrated a high technical competency and has experience performing similar
services. The proposal contained a clear path toward achieving City goals and objectives
as required by the RFP.
KTUA has performed quality work on projects for the City in the past. KTUA successfully
completed the Downtown Complete Streets Plan in January 2016 and the Central Santa
Ana Complete Streets Plan in February 2019. These complete street plans are very
similar to the report the consultant will develop under this agreement.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the agreement is not to exceed $179,965 for the 3-year term of the
agreement. Any remaining balances not expended at the end of the Fiscal Year will be
carried forward into subsequent Fiscal Years for expenditure for continued
transportation/traffic engineering services as shown below.

NOTES:
1 . This is not the onlyway to estimate salary increases. Other methodswill be accepted if they clearly indicate the %
increase, the # of years of the contract, and a breakdown of the labor to be performed each year.
2. An estimation that is based on direct labor multiplied by salary increase % multiplied by the # of years is not
acceptable.
(i.e. $250,000 x 2% x 5 yrs = $25,000 is not an acceptable methodology)
3. This assumes that one year will be worked at the rate on the cost proposal before salary increases are granted.
4. Calculations for anticipated salary escalation must be provided.

be limited to the entire amount of fees or commissions charged for assistance in the procurement of the
materials and supplies, or fees or transportation charges for the delivery of materials or supplies required
on the job site, provided the fees are reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees charged for

INDIRECT COSTS AND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
(Note: If a Safe Harbor Indirect Cost Rate is approved, this form is not required.)
Consultant's Full Legal Name:
Important: Consultant means the individual or consultant providing engineering and design related

% OR
Home Office Rate % and Field Office Rate (if applicable) %
Facilities Capital Cost of Money % (if applicable)
Fiscal period *
* Fiscal period is annual one year applicable accounting period that the Indirect Cost Rate was developed (not
the contract period). The Indirect Cost Rate is based on the consultant's one-year applicable accounting period
for which financial statements are regularly prepared by the consultant.
I have reviewed the proposal to establish an Indirect Cost Rate(s) for the fiscal period as specified above and have
determined to the best of my knowledge and belief that:
• All costs included in the cost proposal to establish the indirect cost rate(s) are allowable in
accordance with the cost principles of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 48, Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), Chapter 1, Part 31 (48 CFR Part 31);
• The cost proposal does not include any costs which are expressly unallowable under the cost
principles of 48 CFR Part 31;
• The accounting treatment and billing of prevailing wage delta costs are consistent with our
prevailing wage policy as either direct labor, indirect costs, or other direct costs on all federally -
funded A&E Consultant Contracts.
• All known material transactions or events that have occurred subsequent to year-end affecting the
consultant's ownership, organization, and indirect cost rates have been disclosed as of the date of
this certification.
I am providing the required and applicable documents as instructed on Exhibit 10-A.
Financial Management System:
Our labor charging, job costing, and accounting systems meet the standards for financial reporting, accounting
records, and internal control adequate to demonstrate that costs claimed have been incurred, appropriately
accounted for, are allocable to the contract, and comply with the federal requirements as set forth in Title 23
United States Code (U.S.C.) Section 112(b)(2); 48 CFR Part 31.201-2(d); 23 CFR, Chapter 1, Part 172.1l(a)(2);
and all applicable state and federal rules and regulations.
Our financial management system has the following attributes:
• Account numbers identifying allowable direct, indirect, and unallowable cost accounts;
• Ability to accumulate and segregate allowable direct, indirect, and unallowable costs into separate cost

• Ability to ensure and demonstrate costs billed reconcile to general ledgers and job costing system; and

I also understand that failure to comply with 48 CFR Part 16.301-3 or knowingly charge unallowable costs to

I, the undersigned, certify all of the above to the best of my knowledge and belief and that I have reviewed the
Indirect Cost Rate Schedule to determine that any costs which are expressly unallowable under the Federal cost
principles have been removed and comply with Title 23 U.S.C. Section 112(b)(2), 48 CFR Part 31, 23 CFR Part 172, and
all applicable state and federal rules and regulations. I also certify that I understand that all documentation of

Staff Report
August 2, 2022
TOPIC: Resolution Declaring City -Owned Properties Exempt Surplus Land
AGENDA TITLE:
Adopt a Resolution Declaring City -Owned Properties as Exempt Surplus Land for the
Purpose of a Real Property Exchange with the State of California
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution declaring City -owned properties as exempt surplus land pursuant to
California Government Code § 54220 et seq. for exchange of State of California real
property for the City's use, and authorize the City Manager to execute any and all
documents necessary to complete the exchange.
DISCUSSION
The City is the owner of five real property assets ("City Properties") that are vacant
remnant parcels of land that were acquired for roadway improvements on North Grand
Avenue. The improvements are now complete and the remnant parcels are no longer
needed for City use. These properties include:

1214 E 3rd St., Santa Ana CA 92701
398-453-06
202 N Grand Ave., Santa Ana CA 92701
On April 21, 2020, the City Council adopted a resolution declaring the City Properties as
surplus and the City commenced with the disposition process pursuant to California
Government Code section 54221, as they were no longer needed for City purposes. The
disposition process was halted, as it was determined that the City Properties were better
suited for an exchange of real property with State of California.
The State owns an office building located in the Santa Ana Civic Center at 28 Civic Center
Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701, APN 008-067-36 ("State Property"). The State Property is
enclosed by City -owned property on all four sides, and an exchange of the State Property
would be necessary for the City's potential future redevelopment of City Hall and the Civic
Center.

Resolution Declaring City -owned Properties Exempt Surplus Land
August 2, 2022
Page 2
Additionally, the State's Housing and Community Development Agency (HCD) would be
able to use the exchanged City Properties for affordable housing purposes. HCD has
requested that the City Properties be assembled into a single parcel. To aggregate these
parcels across 3rd Street, a cul-de-sac is required. The City will complete consolidation
of the City Properties into a single parcel prior to conveyance to the State.
An exchange of the City Properties for the State Property is mutually beneficial to both
agencies. Adopting this resolution declaring the Properties exempt surplus under
California Government Code section 54221 (f)(1)(C) and (D), allows the City to further
negotiate with the State for the real property exchange.
CEQA
The exchange of the City Properties is exempt from environmental review under the
California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section
15312 (Surplus Government Property Sales). However, if development were proposed
on the City Properties and State Property, then that development would be reviewed
under CEQA.

How is Orange County Addressing Homelessness?
SUMMARY
Orange County's homeless population continues to be of great concern to residents. Seeing
homeless individuals on the streets raises awareness of this persistent problem, but the elaborate
efforts to address homelessness are less evident. Orange County's response to homelessness is a
collaboration led by the independent Orange County Continuum of Care Board (CoC), which
oversees the distribution of federal and state homeless funding. The CoC is supported by the
Orange County Office of Care Coordination (OCC) which administers contracts, monitors
budgets, and evaluates the results of the funded programs.
The Orange County Grand Jury (OCGJ) studied the CoC to understand how the County is
working to address homelessness. The collaborative efforts led by the CoC and OCC have
resulted in progress in the fight against homelessness, including a system of care across multiple
levels of government programs and community providers. It further established a coordinated
entry system, a cooperative homeless information system, and consolidated applications for
federal and state funds. Together, the members were responsible for a quick and effective
response to the coronavirus disease (COVID) pandemic on the homeless, an increase in the
number of shelter beds, a decrease in homeless encampments, more outreach and treatment
alternatives, and new housing vouchers being available for permanent housing.
This collaborative system of care developed by the CoC and OCC amounts to a great
achievement. The graphs in this OCGJ report show the increased outreach, prevention efforts,
shelter beds provided, and permanent housing made available that the CoC and OCC achieved.
They also show the additional system of care resources provided by the County of Orange to
prevent people from falling into homelessness. Unfortunately, from 2018 to 2021, exits from the
CoC homeless system to permanent housing have hovered between 24 percent and 32 percent.'
Orange County is addressing homelessness with elaborate systems even beyond the efforts of the
CoC and OCC, but the reality of homelessness is that despite these programs our system has
shortcomings and bottlenecks. This OCGJ found that: South Orange County needs an emergency
shelter; homeless individuals suffering from mental illness and substance abuse need court -
ordered treatment; Orange County does not have enough housing affordable to individuals
exiting homeless shelters; and youth aging out of foster care do not have enough safe housing,
resulting in many falling into homelessness.
BACKGROUND
There are numerous causes of homelessness. These causes range from poverty, unemployment,
lack of affordable housing, and individual issues of mental and/or substance use disorders. Other
risk factors include medical problems, physical disability, domestic violence, and youth aging
out of the child-care system.2
The continuum of care concept was created by HUD in 1994 to promote communitywide
commitment to the goal of ending homelessness. HUD provided funding to quickly rehouse

individuals and families, promote participation in programs for the homeless, and optimize self-
sufficiency among those experiencing homelessness.3
HUD recommended the collaborative development of plans to end homelessness in all
communities receiving HUD funding. In response, Orange County created the Commission to
End Homelessness that published a Ten -Year Plan to End Homelessness in 2012.4 Over the
ensuing decade, implementation of this model Ten -Year Plan was beyond the power of the
Commission and major parts of the plan were not achieved.
Meanwhile, in 2009, HUD outlined the process of building a collaborative CoC comprised of
organizations and individuals dedicated to ending homelessness. The CoC was created in 2016
along with the OCC. HUD, the major fonder of homeless programs, gave the CoC responsibility
for prioritizing the distribution of competitive federal homeless assistance program monies. The
strategy of the CoC is to prioritize funding of programs that focus on four pillars: Prevention,
Outreach, Shelter, and Housing.
Mixed Success in Addressing Homelessness
In Orange County, various approaches to manage homelessness have been tried with varying
levels of success.
• Moving the Homeless: When businesses and residents complained about homeless
individuals, police were expected to relocate them. Pushing homeless individuals out of town
sometimes resulted in simply shifting the problem to neighboring communities.
Ordinances by Cities: Ordinances that criminalized camping on public property or loitering
contributed to the incarceration of homeless individuals, including many suffering from
mental illness and substance abuse issues. Orange County Sheriff Don Barnes commented,
`By default, the Orange County Jail had become the de facto mental hospital of Orange
County.... [in] 2018, Orange County jails had about 2,200 inmates with severe mental
illnesses."5
Housing and Treatment: Recent approaches that emphasized housing only or treatment
only fell short in substantially reducing homelessness.
Local Opposition Prevented Shelter and Housing: In Orange County, early efforts to
provide low -threshold emergency shelters to get individuals off the streets were met with
local opposition in most communities, as were developments of housing affordable to
individuals exiting shelters. The development of a Coordinated Entry System (CES)7 helped
reduce the neighborhood impact of shelters.

5 Nick Gerda, "OC Mental Health Jail Expansion Draws Pushback and Debate", Voice of OC, October 23, 2019.
6 A Low -Threshold Emergency Shelter offers an alternative to living on the streets. Individuals in these shelters
must comply with the shelter rules but are not required to be drug and alcohol free.
7 Coordinated Entry System (CES) is a shared database between service providers that shuttles homeless individuals
in and out of shelters eliminating walk-in and walk -out shelter access that caused community opposition. The CES is
also a point of referral into permanent housing.

City Council 16 — 6 8/2/2022
How is Orange County Addressing Homelessness?
• Prevention Investments: Additional assistance for rent or utilities, as well as Section 8
housing vouchers, resulted in increased financial stability of individuals at danger of
becoming homeless.
• Outreach Expanded: More homeless individuals were reached through trust -building and
outreach efforts resulting in increased numbers being sheltered.
• Increased Shelter: Emergency shelter beds available to the homeless increased providing
immediate help to more of the unhoused.
• Permanent Housing Added: Some permanent housing opportunities increased through new
HUD vouchers, as well as County of Orange Permanent Supportive Housing developments.

The HUD -mandated Point in Time Count (PIT)8 is a national effort to create a census of
homeless individuals every two years. While this one -day initiative to contact and count the
homeless is assumed to result in a significant undercount, it is a consistent approach which
shows comparable data collected over time. The most recent PIT was conducted in 2022 and
reported a decrease of 1,142 homeless individuals counted in Orange County.
North and Central SPA cities sheltered 49% of their homeless while South SPA cities sheltered
on 28% of their homeless according to the 2022 PIT.9

How is Orange County Addressing Homelessness?
"John " was a homeless man who lived in Hart Park in the City of Orange for several years.
He sought housing at the County `BRIDGES at Kraemer" shelter, where he stayed for seven
months. He was an Army Veteran and during his time at BRIDGES, the staff worked with him
to obtain identification and get his veteran benefits. Together they developed a housing plan
and found a permanent home for him in Fountain Valley. He reported his joy when
BRIDGES staff even gave him transportation to his new home where he now lives.
Federal Court Intervenes and Regional Shelters Are Opened
In response to a lawsuit against the County of Orange filed on behalf of the homeless individuals
living in large encampments along the Santa Ana River and other public property, a federal
District Court got involved in overseeing the County's actions to clear the encampments.
On February 13, 2018, US District Court Judge David Carter ordered that "OC officials, cities
and homeless advocates collaborate to find shelter for hundreds of people who have been living
in the camps."10 Judge Carter issued a Temporary Restraining Order barring the arrest of those
living along the Santa Ana River stating, "That order will stand until public officials can identify
an alternative place to house those living along the river trail.""
As a result of this litigation, on July 23, 2019, the District Court brokered a Settlement
Agreement between the County of Orange and the advocates for the homeless.12 This agreement
outlined the number of emergency shelter beds that must be developed in each Orange County
Service Planning Area (SPA)13, before any homeless individuals could be removed from the
encampments. This agreement was later adopted by North and Central SPA cities to avoid
litigation and became a major impetus to opening low -threshold emergency shelters in the North
and Central OC communities. South OC SPA cities did not sign the Settlement Agreement and
no new low -threshold emergency shelters have subsequently been opened to meet the need of the
South OC homeless identified in the OCGJ investigation.
REASON FOR THE STUDY
Homelessness continues to be one of the most frequently identified issues of concern to Orange
County residents. 14 Previous Grand Juries examined efforts to address homelessness and made
recommendations, many of which have been implemented.15 Yet concerns about homelessness
persist in our communities. The purpose of this report is to discuss the effectiveness of the CoC
and OCC in collaborating to address Orange County's homelessness through the services that are
provided by the 37 contracts they authorize and oversee. The Grand Jury sought to evaluate the

amount of money is being spent, the outcomes achieved, and whether this investment of public
dollars is making a difference.
"James " abruptly found himself homeless and on the street at the age of 18 when his foster
parents said they had completed their obligation to him. With few resources, he turned to
friends who let him "couch surf", and then out of desperation, enlisted in the military. After his
service, he returned to Orange County where found a friend to stay with and worked to get back
on his feet. His lifelong struggles with homelessness coupled with excessive anger issues,
addictions, and recovery from negative childhood experiences have required committing to
radical personal change. Today in his early 50s, James has a job, and a mission to serve his
community, teaching kids and helping the homeless with food, resources, and advice.
METHOD OF STUDY
• Reviewed CoC contracts, budgets, and performance evaluations.
• Toured emergency shelters, food service providers, substance abuse and mental health
treatment programs, and the Collaborative Courts.
• Interviewed federal authorities, city managers, shelter providers, homeless outreach workers,
law enforcement personnel, county staff responsible for shelter and affordable housing,
mental health professionals, OC jail staff, and homeless individuals.
• Reviewed documents including the Ten -Year Plan to End Homelessness, Continuum of Care
Board minutes and reports, previous California Grand Jury reports, budgets, articles, and
litigation.
• Conducted internet research on homeless issues.
INVESTIGATION AND ANALYSIS
Orange County Continuum of Care Collaboration
Since 1998, Orange County has developed a comprehensive regional continuum of care to
address homelessness in Orange County. This collaboration covers Orange County's 34 cities
and unincorporated areas. County departments and agencies, local governments, homeless,
housing, supportive service providers, and community groups (including non -profits, faith -based
organizations, interested business leaders, schools, individuals with lived experience, and many
other stakeholders) joined as participants with the shared mission to address homelessness.
The Orange County Continuum of Care Board (CoC), created in 2016, is the governing body for
the continuum of care, whose goal is to oversee and implement this strategic collaboration as
authorized by federal legislation.16 The CoC is comprised of diverse representatives of the
collaborative participants.

How is Orange County Addressing Homelessness?
The CoC vision is to develop a dignified and equitable system to permanently house those
experiencing homelessness, on a collaborative and regional basis, to allocate funds to match the
greatest needs.
Prioritizing Homeless Funding
The CoC Board is responsible for the distribution of federal, state, and local funding to address
homelessness. These dollars are restricted for specific uses by the funding sources. The CoC
prioritizes awarding contracts based on four strategic pillars, and the OCC administers, monitors,
and evaluates the contracts. The four pillars are:
1. Prevention - short-term intervention to keep people in their homes, avoid eviction, and
stabilize their housing.
2. Outreach - seeking, reaching out to, and engaging individuals as a first step towards ending
their homelessness and providing services to develop self-sufficiency and independence.
3. Shelters- temporary residence providing protection from exposure and a safety net for the
homeless.
4. Housing - including housing coupled with treatment and supportive services enables greater
potential success of homeless individuals suffering from mental illness and substance abuse.

Continuum of Care Funding Oversight
The CoC oversees 37 contracts that outline the terms and agreements as to what services must be
provided, and which funding source is used (such as the County General Fund, or various state
and federal grants). The source of funds dictates how the funds must be used.
The CoC receives funding through various state and federal sources through a Notice of Funding
Availability. The CoC issues a Request for Proposals to which qualified non -profits submit
proposals. The CoC and the Commission to End Homelessness work together to establish
funding priorities. The CoC selects which proposals to fund and sends them to the Board of
Supervisors for legal approval.
All contracts specify that audits may be required. Audits are based on performance and proper
use of funds required by the funding source. The County can also request an audit at any time
during the contract term. The OCC monitors the contracts through a monthly Expenditure and
Revenue report. Along with this financial review, the County conducts yearly site visits for each
contract. The on -site audit reviews all aspects of the contract obligations to ensure that the
contractors are compliant with the specifications of the funding.
Contractors who meet or exceed their requirements are typically renewed. Those who fail are
given the opportunity to explain unexpected hurdles they faced, such as COVID issues or other
unavoidable circumstances. After a full review, the CoC Board decides whether to renew or
terminate a contract.

Major Funding Sources Overseen by the CoC
A variety of federal, state, and county restrictive grants with specific uses required make up the
funding that the CoC allocates.19
CoC Process to Address Homelessness
OCGJ sought to evaluate the effectiveness of the CoC contracts under each pillar using the data
from the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) which is the shared database of all
homeless services providers required by HUD for CoC's and maintained by the non-profit 211
OC.
1. Prevention - CoC investments in homeless prevention, include rental and utility assistance,
as well as housing vouchers, and are measured as "increased income" in the graph below.
The CoC system does not represent the only County of Orange expenditures to prevent
homelessness. The County allocates significant amounts of funding to prevent individuals
and families from becoming homeless as outlined later in this report.

How is Orange County Addressing Homelessness?
A homeless man hanging out at a volunteer organization that provides food and assistance to the
homeless described his experience in Orange. He stated that because he did not have a home, he
was constantly stopped and harassed by the police, both physically and mentally. He believed that
the Be Well Center was just a trick to get people off the streets. They would 5150 (72-hour mental
health hold) everyone referred to their program and no one ever saw them again.
2. Outreach — Outreach efforts of CoC non-profit contractors resulted in successful exits from
homelessness to shelter increasing about 33 percent from 2,245 in 2019 to 2,994 in 2021. In
that period, outreach efforts by non -profits seeking to build trust with homeless individuals
resulted in the doubling of client contacts, to over 10,000 a year. Increasing client contacts,
building trust, and successful entrance into shelter are measures of successful outreach
programs.
Some people believe that chronically homeless individuals do not want permanent housing
and are resistant to programs. While this may be true in some cases, the OCGJ learned
several reasons for this resistance, including:
• Individuals who lack trust in outreach program staff due to promises previously broken.
• Substance abusers who are not ready for treatment.
• Mentally ill individuals who lack awareness of their illness.
• Individuals who fear for their safety in shelters or housing.
• Individuals who do not like the rule that forbids walking in and out of the shelter and
require access by arranged transportation only.
The OCGJ learned from law enforcement and shelter officials that there were not enough
rehabilitation and treatment facilities and services to meet the need of homeless Orange County
residents suffering from mentally illness or substance abuse.

3. Shelter - Emergency shelter capacity increased over 40 percent from 2,665 in 2017 to 3,756
in 2021, primarily in North and Central SPA cities. This increase helped to temporarily house
many of the homeless of Orange County.
Low -Threshold Emergency Shelters are open to all individuals whose behavior is consistent
with the shelter rules. This includes individuals who are suffering mental illness as well as
those who are still using drugs and alcohol. The County of Orange funds two such shelters,
BRIDGES in the North SPA and YALE in the Central SPA, but has been unsuccessful in
siting a shelter in South SPA.
Navigation Centers are emergency shelters that are funded by cities and other sources.
Shelters have opened in Anaheim, Buena Park, Fullerton, Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach,
Placentia, Tustin, and Santa Ana. Additional shelters are operated by various non -profits and
faith -based organizations around Orange County. The OCGJ found that no low -threshold
emergency shelters had been opened in South SPA cities to meet the identified need.
Various levels of service are provided at the emergency shelters in addition to safe beds,
food, and showers. The low -threshold, multi -service county shelters work with the residents
to do the following: develop a plan to get into permanent housing; get job training and secure
a job; obtain benefits for which they qualify, such as veterans, general relief, disability, or
other public assistance; get into treatment programs to help with their substance abuse or
mental illness; receive medical care and needed medicine; and overcome other individual
challenges to independent living.

• Housing Vouchers (Section 8) are issued by local Housing Authorities who set aside
some for the homeless. They prioritize individual veterans, disabled, and families with
children, as well as designating some for PSH projects. Vouchers are a permanent
housing subsidy that require individuals to contribute 30 percent of their income to rent.
• Exits from emergency shelters to permanent housing were limited not only by the
number of vouchers available, but by the inability of homeless individuals to find housing
where landlords would accept vouchers. From 2018 to 2021, exits from the CoC
homeless system to permanent housing have hovered between 24 and 32 percent.zz
• 2,700 PSH units were needed according to the PIT count in 2017. PSH is for homeless
individuals who are living with disabilities and mental illness. OC Housing Community
Development leveraged California Mental Health Services Act funds resulting in 2,700
PSH units being built, approved, or in the planning stage as of 2022.
• Treatment programs for homeless individuals, who could benefit from permanent
housing but require treatment programs to be successful, are in short supply.
• Transitional Aged Youth (TAY), are 16-24-year-olds who age out of the Foster Care
system. They are vulnerable and many become homeless. The CoC funds one shelter
with 25 beds for TAY where the waiting list for a bed is nine months. During the
pandemic, housing vouchers for TAY increased from five to 120 but fell short of meeting
the 150 beds needed.23

OC System of Care Resources
While the CoC represents the targeted collaboration to combat homelessness envisioned by
HUD, there are additional programs in the Orange County System of Care that serve homeless
individuals through other County agencies, such as the following:
• Prevention - Health care services which include: mental health, substance abuse
treatment, and public health (infectious disease control); public assistance programs such
as: Cal Fresh (EBT, food assistance), Cal WORKS (job training), Cash Assistance
Program for Immigrants, Medi-Cal, and General Relief (cash assistance).
• Outreach - Link to Services, Housing, Treatment, Basic Skills, and Job Training.
• Shelter - All emergency shelter funds go through the CoC Board.
• Housing - Housing Choice Vouchers, and Supportive Housing.

resources provided by the County of Orange. The 2022 Point in Time count documents the
resulting decrease in homelessness, even as it shows the remaining challenges.
These County of Orange investments to address homelessness make a big difference by taking
many people off the streets, providing shelters with basic services, giving needed medical and
mental health care, helping with job training, and creating some permanent housing. While these
investments are essential, they do not go far enough to house all the homeless people living in
Orange County; in fact, only about 30 percent of the individuals exiting temporary shelters move
into permanent housing.
The challenge of homelessness in our changing economy has been evolving as have our systems
of care and prevention. It is clear that no one approach is going to eradicate homelessness.
However, if we continue to come together to learn and to improve our collective efforts, we will
enable greater success in the exhaustive task of serving this vulnerable population in our
community.
FINDINGS
Based on its investigation described in this report, the 2021-2022 Orange County Grand Jury has
arrived at the following findings:
F1 South Orange County SPA cities lack low -threshold emergency shelters resulting in more
homeless encampments and individuals living on the streets.
F2 Too many of the homeless who are severely and persistently mentally ill and those with
addiction issues end up incarcerated instead of more appropriate placements.
F3 The County of Orange and cities within Orange County have been inconsistent in
collaboration for support of shelters and services, which has resulted in missed opportunities
to end homelessness.
F4 There are an insufficient number of rental units available to those exiting Emergency
Shelters, resulting in the majority returning to homelessness when leaving the shelters.
F5 The Office of Care Coordination, in collaboration with the Continuum of Care Board,
provides an effective community -based system of setting priorities to address homelessness,
learning best practices, awarding and monitoring contracts, and overseeing a comprehensive
system of care. However, the challenge of housing all our homeless requires much more.
F6 Transitional Aged Youth who age out of the Foster Care system are a vulnerable population
that often become homeless and need assistance in finding housing. There are insufficient
resources to adequately serve these young people.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on its investigation described herein, the 2021-2022 Orange County Grand Jury makes the
following recommendations:
R1 By July 1, 2023, the CoC and County of Orange should leverage funding to persuade South
Orange County cities to open a regional, low -threshold emergency shelter for the homeless,
in addition to the Laguna Beach Friendship Shelter. (F 1)
R2 By July 1, 2023, South OC SPA cities should collaborate in siting and funding a low -
threshold emergency shelter for the homeless, in addition to the Friendship Shelter in
Laguna Beach. (172)
R3 The CoC should fund programs in fiscal year 2022-23 for people with severe and persistent
mental illness and addiction issues to receive supervised care and treatment. (172)
R4 By July 1, 2024, the County of Orange and cities should collaborate to open facilities that
can house people with severe and persistent mental illness and addiction issues in a secure
setting. (F2)
R5 By July 1, 2023, the County of Orange, cities and CoC should collaborate to encourage the
development of housing affordable to individuals exiting the emergency shelters in Orange
County. (173, F4, 175)
R6 By December 1, 2022, the County of Orange, cities and CoC should collaborate to increase
the number of housing opportunities for Transitional Aged Youth. (F6)
COMMENDATIONS
Continuum of Care - The Orange County Grand Jury commends the broad -based collaboration
between the County, cities, non-profit shelter and service providers, homeless advocates, faith -
based organizations helping the homeless and hungry, and public and private entities, known as
the Continuum of Care. This federally supported initiative has a representative board of directors
and enjoys the highly effective professional support of the County of Orange Office of Care
Coordination.
The OCGJ toured facilities and interviewed those engaged at all levels in this community -wide
endeavor and was impressed at the dedication and caring to help the less fortunate in our County.
During the OCGJ investigation into the CoC, several exceptional organizations and dedicated
individuals were brought to our attention. While not a direct part of our focus on the CoC, they
were part of this broad community effort to address homelessness so the OCGJ thought they
warranted honorable mention, including:
• Be Well OC in Orange is an innovative collaboration to provide outreach vans with
mental health crisis teams, and a residential facility to reduce the incarceration of
individuals with mental illness and/or substance abuse problems.
• Mary's Kitchen in the city of Orange provides dignified services including food to the
walk-in homeless. Additionally, clients can receive mail and take showers.
2021-2022 Orange County Grand Jury Page 14
City Council 16 — 18 8/2/2022
How is Orange County Addressing Homelessness?
• Navigation Centers in the cities of Laguna Beach, Fullerton, Buena Park, Placentia,
Tustin, and Huntington Beach are providing critical shelter and services to the homeless.
• Orange County's Emergency Shelters, Yale, and Bridges at Kraemer are unique multi-
service, low -threshold shelters run by PATH and Mercy House respectfully.
• Outreach and Prevention work being done by City Net and city homeless liaisons are
the front line in reaching the chronically homeless.
• Permanent Housing is being developed by many entities overcoming various obstacles.
The Grand Jury commends Jamboree Housing for their successful PSH units we toured,
and the OC Housing Community Development department for their success in leveraging
partnerships to create 2700 units of PSH.
• The Salvation Army operates a low -threshold, comprehensive homeless shelter for the
City of Anaheim and is in the process of building an adjacent apartment complex with
permanent supportive housing.
• US District Court Judge David Carter played an extraordinary role in bringing the
cities and county to the table with the advocates and homeless to create change. His
"hands on" approach demonstrated the compassion he expected of all.
• Whatever It Takes (WIT) Collaborative Court is an initiative to help high risk, high
need, convicted felons, to be successfully reintegrated into society. Coordinated resources
and guidance are offered to complete a program of sobriety, housing, employment,
counseling, relationship issues, and consistent healthy behavior.

Subject: Response to Grand Jury Report Entitled "How is Orange County Addressing Homelessness"
Dear Honorable Judge Larsh:
Please accept this letter as the City of Santa Ana's response to the Grand Jury's report entitled "How is
Orange County Addressing Homelessness". This report was presented to the City Council at their meeting
held on August 2, 2022, whereby the City Council authorized the City Manager to deliver the City's response
to the Presiding Judge of the Orange County Superior Court. Here are the City's responses to the items
requested by the Grand Jury, specifically for the City of Santa Ana: F3, F4, R4, R5, and R6.
FINDINGS:
F3. The County of Orange and cities within Orange County have been inconsistent in collaboration for support
of shelters and services, which has resulted in missed opportunities to end homelessness.
CitV's Response: The City agrees with this finding.
F4. There are insufficient number or rental units available to those exiting Emergency Shelters, resulting in
the majority returning to homelessness when leaving the shelters.
City's Response: The City agrees with this finding.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
R4. By July 1, 2024, the County of Orange and cities should collaborate to open facilities that can house
people with severe and persistent mental illness and addiction issues in a secure setting. (F2)

beyond their existing Orange campus.

Staff Report
August 2, 2022
TOPIC: Revive Santa Ana Spending Plan
AGENDA TITLE:
Approve the $128,360,000 Revive Santa Ana Spending Plan, Appropriate Federal
American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funding, and Adopt a Resolution to Amend the FY
2022-23 Annual Budget to Add Limited -Term Full -Time Positions (Revive Santa Ana
Program)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve the updated $128,360,000 Revive Santa Ana Spending Plan to protect
and revive the community as Santa Ana continues to emerge from the impacts
of the COVID-19 pandemic.
2. Approve an appropriation adjustment of $64,180,000 to authorize spending
from the federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) for various expenditures to
recover from COVID-19, including authorization for the City Manager to move
appropriated money between Spending Plan line items to reflect evolving
federal guidelines and individual program popularity. (Requires five affirmative
votes)
3. Adopt a resolution to
limited -term full-time
projects.
DISCUSSION
amend the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Annual Budget to add
positions for the implementation of Revive Santa Ana
The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of 2021 is the latest COVID-19 stimulus package
approved by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Biden. ARPA is a $1.9
trillion economic stimulus bill. Within ARPA, the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal
Recovery Fund provides $350 billion in direct funding for states, municipalities, counties,
tribes, and territories, including $130.2 billion for local governments split evenly between
municipalities and counties. Of this, the City of Santa Ana received $128,360,000.
The Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund provides a substantial infusion of
resources to help turn the tide on the COVID-19 pandemic, address its economic fallout,
and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery. The purpose of the use of
these funds are as follows:
Support urgent COVID-19 response efforts to continue to decrease spread of
City Council 17 — 1 8/2/2022
the virus and bring the pandemic under control.
• Replace lost revenue for eligible state, local, territorial, and tribal governments
to strengthen support for vital public services and help retain jobs.
• Support immediate economic stabilization for households and businesses.
• Address systemic public health and economic challenges that have contributed
to the unequal impact of the pandemic.
The Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund provides substantial flexibility for
each local government to meet local needs —including support for households, small
businesses, impacted industries, essential workers, and the communities hardest hit by
the pandemic. These funds can be used to make necessary investments in water, sewer,
and broadband infrastructure, among other uses. As a recipient of these funds, the City
has been working diligently to find the best way to use the City's allocation of the
Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund. To that end, the City created Revive
Santa Ana, a community engagement initiative and spending plan to use the
$128,360,000 in federal funding.
The City received its first of two payments from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, in
the amount of $64,180,000 in 2021, and the second payment of $64,180,000 in June
2022. The original Revive Santa Ana Plan, a detailed spending plan for the first allocation,
was presented to the City Council for approval at the July 6, 2021 meeting and the City
Council approved the item at the July 20, 2021 meeting. The Revive Santa Ana Spending
Plan (Exhibit 1) has been updated to reflect the entire ARPA allocation of local fiscal
recovery funds.
Revive Santa Ana Spending Plan
The spending plan includes five expenditure categories:
• Recovery from the Pandemic - $8,200,000
o Public Health Equity, expansion of critical communication methods,
sanitization, emergency response, mental health recovery, and support
services for COVID-19 response
• Direct Assistance Programs - $22,400,000
o Rental assistance, housing vouchers, food supply/distribution, business
and non-profit assistance, early childhood support, daycare and head start,
after -school programs, youth violence, sexual assault intervention,
technology skill courses, direct resident assistance
• Public Health and Safety - $34,235,000
o 5k Run, additional green/open space, healthy food access, property
compliance programs, rapid response homeless services, park restrooms,
increased security for parks and community centers, First Street safety
enhancements
• Critical Infrastructure - $51,400,000
o Broadband access, community center renovations, transformation of
Central Library to support early childhood learning, expansion of library
accessibility, IT and process upgrades, streetlights, storm drain gates,
parking structure improvements
• City Fiscal Health - $12,125,000
o Legal support services, contract management, unemployment fund / paid
leave reimbursement, accounting and compliance for federal funding,

reserve for revenue loss allocation
Appropriation of Funds
Below are the final Revive Santa Ana Spending Plan allocations for each of the proposed
expenditure categories for the full allocation:
Expenditure Category
Amount
Recovery from the Pandemic
$8,200,000

$34,235,000
Critical Infrastructure
$51,400,000
City Fiscal Health
$12,125,000
Total
$128,360,000
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the updated Revive Santa Ana Spending
Plan, and appropriate the City's second ARPA allocation of $64,180,000. Staff anticipates
the Spending Plan will evolve, as the U.S. Department of Treasury is continually updating
the spending guidelines and program popularity and use will affect spending priorities.
Similar to the spending authorization for the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic

Voter Ballot Measure to Amend the City Charter
August 2, 2022

DISCUSSION
In 2020, the Mayor created a Charter Review Ad Hoc Committee that considered numerous
potential City Charter amendments. The Ad Hoc Committee ultimately recommend to the full
City Council that 17 amendments to the City Charter be placed on the ballot for the November
2020 General Municipal Election. After consideration of the proposed Charter Amendments at a
series of public meetings in 2020, the City Council declined, at that time, to place the
recommended Charter amendments on the ballot.
In 2022, the Mayor created a Charter Review Ad Hoc Committee that considered both the 2020
Charter amendment recommendations, along with some additional changes to the City Charter
relating to City Council term limits, the term of the Mayor, City Council compensation, and
adoption of the City budget. The 2022 Charter Review Ad Hoc Committee ultimately
recommended to the full City Council placing 16 of the 17 2020 recommendations on the ballot.
The 16 proposed Charter amendments from 2020 are administrative in nature. These 16
amendments are intended to have the City Charter conform with various federal, state, and/or
applicable laws, such as by revising Civil Service provisions, updating anti -discrimination
provisions, and removing provisions relating to work stoppages. In addition, these amendments
remove outdated provisions that are not necessary to be included in the Charter, reorganize
sections to improve the readability of the Charter, and update provisions to improve the delivery
of City services.
At the July 19, 2022 meeting, staff presented a recommendation from the Charter Review Ad
Hoc Committee regarding two new proposed Charter amendments: (1) adopting a lifetime ban
for the Mayor after 4 terms and a lifetime ban for Councilmembers after 3 terms; and (2) requiring
a 2/3 vote by the City Council to adopt the City budget. The City Council concurred with the Ad
Hoc Committee's recommendation to move forward with these two items, in addition to the 16
administrative/clean-up items.
These 16 proposed administrative/clean-up Charter amendments, along with the two new
proposed Charter amendments (lifetime ban for Mayor and Councilmembers) are summarized
below.
Summary of Proposed Charter Amendments
16 Administrative/Clean-Up Items
Section 400: Number, Selection and Term of Members
The current Charter states that the term of each councilmember, including the mayor, shall begin
at 6:00 p.m. on the second Tuesday of December following certification of election results. This
amendment clarifies that term of each councilmember, including the mayor, shall begin at 6:00
p.m. on the first regularly scheduled City Council meeting or at a special City Council meeting
following certification of election results.

August 2, 2022
Page 3
Section 401.01: Term Limits (new section)
This amendment removes term limit provisions for the mayor and councilmember, from Sections
404 and 401, respectively, and restates those term limit provisions in their entirety into a new
Section 401.01 of the Charter. The purpose of this amendment is to reorganize all provisions
relating to term limits into one new section.
Section 401.05: Code of Ethics and Conduct (new section)
The current Charter states that the City shall adopt a Code of Ethics and Conduct for elected
officials and members of appointed boards, commissions, and committees to assure public
confidence in the integrity of the City. This amendment expands the applicability of the Code of
Ethics and Conduct to include elected officials, the City Attorney, City Manager, Clerk of Council,
Police Chief, and directors of all City departments. Furthermore, this amendment prescribes a
process for documenting alleged violations of the Code of Ethics and Conduct in writing to the
City Council, as well as a procedure for the City Council to review such alleged allegations.
Section 405: Mayor Pro Tem
The current Charter provides that at the first City Council meeting following any general or
special election when councilmembers, including the mayor, are elected, the City Council shall
elect a mayor pro tem. This amendment clarifies that the election of the mayor pro tem shall
occur each calendar year at the first City Council meeting in January. Furthermore, this
amendment clarifies that the mayor pro tem from the previous year cannot be elected as mayor
pro tem for the following year, and that the mayor pro tem may be replaced by the affirmative
votes of four members of the City Council.
Section 406: Council Judge of Elections and Qualifications of Members
This section declares that the City Council shall be the judge of the election and of the
qualifications of its member(s) as defined in Section 401, and shall meet on the first regularly
scheduled City Council meeting following certification of election results to declare such election
results and install members. This amendment provides that the City Council may also meet at a
special City Council meeting to do the same.
Section 413: Adoption (Ordinances)
The current Charter provides a procedure for the adoption of ordinances. This amendments adds
resolutions as part of this procedure, as well as clarifies the following: that ordinances may not
be amended after the first reading, and that if an ordinance is amended after the first reading,
that it must be re -introduced to be consistent with state law; that a resolution or ordinance must
be signed as soon as possible, but no later than 72 hours following its adoption; and that if the
mayor does not sign a resolution or ordinance, that the mayor pro tem or any councilmember
who voted to approve such ordinance or resolution may sign instead.
Section 613: Claims— Formalities; Treasury Warrants
The process for claims as prescribed in the Charter is outdated. This amendment revises this
process to streamline the claims and payment process.
City Council 18 — 3 8/2/2022

August 2, 2022
Page 4
Section 1000: Civil Service System
This amendment revises the equal opportunity provisions to clarify that civil service rules and
regulations shall provide for such matters as the City Council and Personnel Board may deem
necessary, and clarifies that these matters shall be determined with concurrence of the City
Council.
Section 1002: Civil Service and Excepted Service
This amendment provides administrative clean-up revisions to ensure compliance with CaIPERS
rules and other applicable laws and regulations.
Section 1010: Prohibitions
This amendments updates the Charter's anti -discrimination provisions, as well as requires that
the City Council adopt an anti -nepotism policy.
Section 1011: Contract for Performance of Administrative Functions
In 2018, the City Council adopted a resolution changing the name of the Personnel Services
Agency to the Human Resources department. To be consistent with these organizational
changes, this amendment replaces the word "personnel" to "human resources".
Section 1014: Work Stoppages
Removes this section in its entirety to be consistent with state law and other applicable laws and
regulations.
Section 1208: Enforcement
Section 1206 prescribes rules relating to campaign contribution limits for candidates for mayor
or councilmember. Section 1207 prescribes rules relating to campaign committees and bank
accounts. Section 1208 provides enforcement provisions relating to Sections 1206 and 1207.
This amendment allows that the City to contract with a state or county entity to enforce such
provisions.
Section 1400: Employees' Retirement System
This amendment revises the in -text references to Section 1002 to be consistent with the
proposed revisions in Section 1002 relating to Civil Service.
Gender Pronouns (various sections)
Throughout the current Charter, references to City officials use gender -specific pronouns such
as he/his/him or his or her. This amendment replaces gender -specific pronouns with they/them
to be more inclusive. This change aligns with the contemporary use of pronouns relating to
gender.
Clerk of the Council Title (various sections)
The Clerk of the Council intends to replace the title "clerk of the council" with "city clerk" to
modernize and better identify this position.
City Council 18 — 4 8/2/2022
Voter Ballot Measure to Amend the City Charter
August 2, 2022
Page 5
Two New Items
Section 607: Budget Adoption
This amendment would change the voting requirement to approve the City budget from a
majority of the City Council to a two-thirds vote of the City Council. This change would be
consistent Section 609 relating to the two-thirds voting requirement to appropriate City funds.
Sections 401 and 404, and Proposed New Section 401.01)
This amendment would impose a "lifetime ban" by removing the eight -year cooling -off provision
(sections 401 and 404). This means that after a Mayor or member of the City Council has
reached their term limit (four 2-year terms for Mayor and three 4-year terms for Councilmember),
they would no longer be eligible to serve on the City Council.
The full text of each of the Charter amendments is attached to this staff report as Exhibit A to
the attached resolution (Exhibit 1).
Next Steps
The California Elections Code requires that the City Council adopt the attached resolution
(Exhibit 1) to place the voter ballot measure before the voters at least 88 days in advance of the
election. By adopting the attached resolution, the City will meet this deadline and have the voter
ballot measure before the voters at the November 8, 2022 General Municipal Election.
Second, the City may file written arguments in favor or against the voter ballot measure by
members of the City Council, any individual voter eligible to vote on the voter ballot measure, or
a bona fide association of such citizens, or any combination thereof. The Elections Code
specifies that members of the City Council may be given preference and priority. If the attached
resolution is adopted, any member of the City council who desires to submit an argument will be
able to do so.
Third, the City Council may direct the City Attorney to prepare an impartial analysis of the voter
ballot measure that explains the effect of such voter ballot measure on existing law and the
operation of the voter ballot measure. The impartial analysis would not exceed 500 words in
length. The impartial analysis would be printed in the voter information guide. This direction is
included in the attached resolution.
Finally, if the attached resolution is adopted, the Clerk of the Council would be required to file a
certified copy with the Orange County Board of Supervisors and the Registrar of Voters of
Orange County at least 88 days before the date of the election. Furthermore, as the City's
elections official, the Clerk of the Council would be required to publish legal notices relating to
the General Municipal Election as prescribed by state law, along with other tasks.
Conclusion
The proposed voter ballot measure, if approved by a majority of qualified voters, would approve
all of these proposed Charter amendments. By placing the measure on the ballot, the City
City Council 18 — 5 8/2/2022

Council is not endorsing or taking a position, but rather asking the voters of Santa Ana to
consider the proposed Charter amendments. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council
adopt the resolution necessary to place the Voter Ballot Measure before the voters of Santa Ana.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
The voter ballot measure to amend the Charter is intended to be revenue neutral, but there will
be an expense associated with placement of a voter ballot measure on the November 8, 2022
General Municipal Election ballot, which is a budgeted expense. Staff confirmed with the Clerk
of the Council the latest estimate of $100,000 for the ballot question.
