My apologies that I didn't have a lot of detail about the grant I presented. I reached out to you knowing that Grant County is the Consolidated Homeless Grant Lead for Adams County residence's and also knowing that your department is already familiar with Department of Commence Grants, administering them within the requirement of DOC and I'm hoping that Grant County may be interested in assisting Adams County by subcontracting and providing the direct service to Adams County residence for this agreement. Here is what I know ...... at this time the Adams County Board of County Commissioners is looking for a subcontractor that is familiar with the housing and subsistence needs of Adams County LMI residents, working with non-English and limited English speaking residents, handling subsistence payments on their behalf, and has worked with CDBG grants with the WA Department of Commerce and is familiar with, and comfortable with, meeting Commerce's reporting and spending requirements around CDBG funds. The county has $117,089 from a CDBG-CV1 consortium and is directing the money to subsistence payments for rent/mortgage and/or utilities (with funds being paid directly to the landlord, mortgage holder, or utilities) for eligible LMI residents who meet the grant's qualifications. The county would like to do this work via subcontract, ensuring that non-English speaking (or limited English speaking) residents receive the outreach (so they are aware help exists and how to access funds) and interaction needed to complete paperwork and secure assistance. We anticipate the subcontract running from January -December 2021. Let me know if you are interested, and if so are you able to provide a letter of proposal with how you would allocate these dollars. What the Board is really looking for is the amount of dollars that would be spent on direct services and what would you need for Administration. Also if you are able to provide something by Monday our BoCC would greatly appreciate that. Thanks again for your time and assistance with this project.
