The City Council voted unanimously on Tuesday to transfer the remaining $323,000 of a $1 million emergency homelessness response fund to the city’s motel voucher program.
City Manager Howard Chan and Mayor Darrell Steinberg clarified that the transfer does not take money away from operations at the city’s existing warming centers, which are funded and scheduled to remain open through March 31.
