Annual Action Plan <br /> <br />14 <br />OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) <br />Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in <br />determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for and evaluate <br />outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and <br />procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS <br /> <br />Redwood City does not receive Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funding, as the San Mateo <br />County Department of Housing (DOH) is the only ESG recipient in the County. However, the City <br />does participate in CoC meetings as part of its ongoing responsibility in receiving HUD funding. <br />The County DOH coordinates closely with the CoC in regard to the County’s ESG, CoC and CDBG <br />funding and is represented on the CoC Steering Committee. The DOH has also delegated <br />responsibility for management of all ESG funds, plus the portion of the County CDBG funds used <br />for homeless activities, to the CoC Lead Agency, the San Mateo County Human Services Agency <br />(HSA). Management responsibilities include issuing RFP’s for ESG funding, awarding contracts, <br />gathering community input, data analysis, and contract monitoring. The CoC Lead Agency is also <br />the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) Lead Agency and develops the policies <br />and procedures for operation and administration of HMIS for ESG funded projects. <br /> <br />2.
