How it got here
The legislation originated from the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing's initiative to provide a navigation center for transitional age youth experiencing homelessness at 888 Post Street.
The City acquired the property at 888 Post Street for use as a Navigation Center for transitional age youth experiencing homelessness.
HSH selected 3rd Street Youth Center & Clinic to operate a navigation center at the property, pursuant to Administrative Code, Chapter 21B.
The Planning Department determined that the operation of the navigation center is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Assembly Bill 101.
The proposed resolution to authorize a lease with 3rd Street Youth Center for the operation of the navigation center was introduced to the Board of Supervisors.
The Mayor's Office submitted the resolution to the Board of Supervisors for consideration, retroactively authorizing the lease agreement.
The Budget and Finance Committee reviewed the resolution and recommended its approval to the full Board of Supervisors.
The resolution is currently pending approval by the Board of Supervisors, which will authorize the lease for the navigation center.
