This Oakland City Council resolution reappropriates $185,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds from the Housing Assistance Center to the East Bay Community Law Center for fiscal year 2019-20 and awards a two-year agreement to that organization not to exceed $185,000 to provide anti-displacement legal services. The reallocation supports expanded legal service delivery related to Oakland's Fair Chance Access to Housing Ordinance, which was passed January 21, 2020, and limits criminal history screening in rental housing applications. The action addresses increased demand for anti-displacement services driven by the housing crisis and COVID-19 pandemic's impact on housing insecurity among low-income and African American residents.
