Recommendation

RECOMMENDATION

 

That the City Council adopt the attached resolution: 1) Establishing the rental agreement termination date for route 238 Parcel Group 5, 7 and 9 tenancies; 2) Approving revised financial terms for the Tenant Transfer Assistance Program (TTAP); 3) Authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Overland, Pacific & Cutler; and, 4) Appropriating program funding.

SUMMARY

 

The purpose of this item is to consider a new date for the termination of the tenant rental agreements, and a revised financial assistance program. Staff recommends proceeding with the program as a number of tenants have indicated an interest in securing the program funds and proceeding to move.  By initiating the program now, the team from OPC can begin interviews with the tenants to better understand individual circumstances.  After completing the interviews, staff will then have the ability to review these circumstances and make recommendations to Council for additional support or accommodations that may be necessary for certain households.  In addition, staff recommends that the Council consider amending the tenant lease agreements to allow those tenants who choose to do so an opportunity to remain in the properties rent-free until they move out.
