Program Year 2017, as such, the amount of ESG funds being recommended is a
projection.
HUD provides, on an annual basis, to the City of Miami ("City") Emergency Solution
Grant funds.
The ESG program guidelines allows for the allocation of funds to continue supporting
the City's outreach and referral services to the chronically homeless and additionally
requires the City to support homeless prevention and rapid re -housing activities.
Between January 20th to February 21st, 2017 the City solicited a request for proposal
from qualified agencies to provide homeless prevention and rapid re -housing activities
in the City of Miami which resulted in one agency being selected for such activities.
The Administration recommends allocating said funds to the various activities as
specified in Attachment "A" for Program Year 2017-2018 beginning October 1st, 2017.
The funding allocation to such activities specified in Attachment "A", will be adjusted
proportionally once HUD confirms the final ESG formula allocation for Program Year
2017-2018
