Direction to Staff to Explore Other Options for a Navigation Center and Authorize City Manager to Sign Documents Required For the Sale of Pipeline Lane Property
body
Statement of Issue:
As part of the City's previous Declaration of a Shelter Crisis, on April 18, 2019, the City Council approved the acquisition of 15311 Pipeline Lane (the "Property") as a possible, but not certain, location of a Homeless Navigation Center. After hearing subsequent concerns from the community, and of those voiced by City Council Members, and members of City staff, staff is recommending pursuing other options for a Navigation Center that might be more suitable, and acceptable to the community. City staff is currently researching other viable options, including regional solutions, temporary back-up solutions, fixed city owned locations, and other potential commercial locations.
Financial Impact:
No fiscal impact.
Recommended Action:

A) Direct Staff to evaluate other location options for a Homeless Navigation Center; and,

end
Alternative Action(s):
Do not pursue other options for a Navigation Center and direct Staff as necessary.
