Recommendation
That Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) authorizing the City Manager to accept and appropriate $999,881 of Proposition 47 funds for the Hayward Housing Navigation Center, and adopts a resolution (Attachment III) to amend Resolution 19-015 to authorize the City Manager to appropriate up to $3,192,339 for an additional $116,000 for the one-year operations of the Hayward Housing Navigation Center.
SUMMARY
This report provides Council with an update on the Hayward Housing Navigation Center (Navigation Center) and recommends adoption of a resolution to accept and appropriate $999,881 of Proposition 47 (Prop 47) funds for the Navigation Center and adoption of a resolution to amend Resolution 19-015. To offset the operational costs of the Navigation Center, the City applied for and was successfully awarded nearly $1 million in Prop 47 funds, made available through the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC).
On January 22, 2019, Council approved resolution 19-015, authorizing and appropriating up to $3,076,340 for the one-year costs of the Navigation Center, including one-time construction expenses and first year operational expenses. Due to unforeseen site preparation and construction expenses primarily related to extraordinary and unanticipated electrical expenses, the year one costs are anticipated to exceed the budget by approximately $96,000. Staff recommends that Council amend resolution 19-015 to increase the total year-one allowable expenditures for the Navigation Center from $3,076,339 to $3,192,339, to cover the $96,000 in unforeseen expenses as well as provide $20,000 in contingency for the remainder of the first year for a total increased budget of $116,000.
Despite the requested increase in the annual budget, there will be approximately $384,000 in overall savings to the General Fund for this project due to the award of Prop 47 funds as well as a generous donation from the Hayward Rotary Club.
