Workshop Meeting Meeting Date: 10/22/2024 Length (in minutes):40 Minutes Agenda Title: Houselessness Task Force Workshop Authored By: Kim Ezell Presented By: Strategic Initiatives Program Manager Kim Ezell Item Type: Update,Discussion,Direct Staff Public Hearing No Legal Ad Required?: Publication Date: • Information EXPLANATION OF ISSUE Council workshop will be an opportunity to review and provide direction on the City creating a Houselessness Task Force. ACTION REQUESTED City Council, Community Homelessness Assessment and Response Team (CHART), and Committee for Community Engagement (CCE) discuss and direct teammates on the creation of the proposed Houseless Task Force. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Over the last several years houselessness has become a greater and more pressing issue in the Portland metro area. As a result, more action has been needed at every level of government to address affordable housing availability, camping in public spaces, addiction and mental health support, emergency shelter, and more. In 2022 the Tigard City Council adopted the Council Goal to `Reduce Houselessness'. Since the Goal was adopted,Tigard has created and updated a public camping ordinance, invested in local houseless shelters, begun a program for people who are sleeping in their cars, created a grant program for local businesses impacted by houselessness, and more. Through this time, the Community Homelessness Assessment and Response Team (CHART) has advised City teammates on policy and program questions related to homelessness. The membership of CHART has evolved over time but has always been composed of institutional partners who either work directly with houseless community members or are directly affected by houselessness in Tigard. Current member organizations include Tigard Chamber of Commerce, Tigard Downtown Alliance,Just Compassion of East Washington County, Project Homeless Connect, Family Promise of Tualatin Valley, Good Neighbor Center,Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue, Tigard Police Department, Tigard Town Center Advisory Commission, and Community Partners for Affordable Housing. In 2024, the Council directed City teammates to consider developing a task force that would act in a more formal capacity than CHART to advise the Council on policy and program questions involving houselessness. Council also directed teammates to include the Tigard Committee for Community Engagement (CCE) in the conversation to help build awareness and education of houseless conversations with community. The idea was selected members of CCE could act as community representatives along with the institutions represented by CHART to form a cohesive and diverse Task Force. ALTERNATIVES & RECOMMENDATION Council can amend the staff recommendations for the formation of the Houselessness Task Force ADDITIONAL RESOURCES 4 1 Attachments WorkshopFramework Powerpoint-Houseless Task Force _ • CITY OF e�� r Houselessness Task Force Workshop Framework The Big Question Is there an opportunity to formalize how the City Council receives advice on houselessness policy from institutional partners and community members?
