Fixing the Mace mess, creating a sanctioned camping site for the homeless and shoring up the city’s Housing Trust Fund are among the priorities the City Council on Tuesday directed staff to focus on over the next six months.
Those items are in addition to the city’s efforts to reimagine public safety by moving some duties out of the Davis Police Department as well as working with the county to create a Crisis Now model to respond to individuals in the midst of mental health or other crises. Two council subcommittees have been focused specifically on those efforts for several months and will continue to do so, city staff said.
County OKs use of ARP funds for Project Roomkey
Shares
Yolo County supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to allocate funding from the American Rescue Plan to extend a pandemic-era program for housing the homeless.
Since its inception in March 2020, Project Roomkey has provided more than 75,000 nights of shelter in leased motel rooms to 787 county residents, 75 of whom have ended up permanently housed.
Funding for the program runs out this week, but Tuesday’s vote by county supervisors to allocate $173,722 in ARP funds will keep it going at least through the end of July.
The cities of Davis and West Sacramento are sharing the cost of the extension, with Davis contributing $105,797 and West Sacramento $67,925.
