DISCUSSION: | ||||
Funding provided under this Agreement shall be used by Samaritan House to administer Safe Harbor Shelter Operation Services. These services include emergency shelter, transitional housing for homeless men and women, as well as Case Management Services for up to one year. Samaritan House has been engaged in providing shelter services in San Mateo County since 1987 and has partnered with the Human Services Agency to develop a year-round, service enriched program at Safe Harbor. Safe Harbor Shelter served 473 individuals with shelter and Case Management Services in FY 2008-09. It is in the County’s best interest to waive the RFP process and enter into an Agreement with Samaritan House - Safe Harbor because Safe Harbor is the only facility serving homeless individuals struggling with drug abuse and alcoholism and is one of the only three single adult shelters in San Mateo County. The Contractor has assured compliance with the County's Contractor Employee Jury Service Ordinance, as well as all other contract provisions that are required by County ordinance and administrative memoranda, including but not limited to insurance, hold harmless, non-discrimination and equal benefits. County Counsel has reviewed and approved the Agreement and Resolution as to form and Risk Management has approved the Contractor’s insurance. Approval of this Agreement contributes to the Shared Vision 2025 outcome of a Prosperous Community by providing shelter services to homeless adults of San Mateo County. | ||||
