Home My WebLink About03/22/2019AT OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER March 22, 2019 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager SUBJECT: General Information Public Safety and Vital Services Measure Updates  The next Citizens Oversight Committee meeting is scheduled for Monday, March 25th at 6:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers in City Hall South, 1501 Truxtun Avenue. The Committee will receive proposal presentations from the Development Services, Recreation and Parks, Public Works, Human Resources, and Technology Services Departments as well as an overview on the return on investment memos for all departments.  As April 1st gets closer, the City has received several inquiries from retailers regarding the applicability of the Bakersfield Public Safety and Vital Services Measure on retail sales and other transactions. The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) administers, collects and distributes transaction use taxes for all applicable jurisdictions within the state. The CDTFA is currently working to implement the Measure, which will become effective April 1, 2019. On and after April 1, 2019, the sales and use tax rate will increase from the current 7.25 percent to 8.25 percent changing the sales and use tax rates charged for applicable transactions if the business has conducts sales activity within the incorporated city limits of Bakersfield. If retailers have questions regarding the applicability of this Measure to their place of business or transactions within the City of Bakersfield, we are encouraging them to contact the CDTFA Customer Service Center at 1-800-400- 7115 (TTY: 711) or the CDTFA Bakersfield office at (661) 395-2880. More information about sales and use tax is available on the CDTFA web site at: https://www.cdtfa.ca.gov/taxes-and-fees/sales-use-tax-rates.htm If you have a question as to whether a particular address is inside or outside the City of Bakersfield tax area, please follow the link below to the City’s web page. Enter the address in the map’s search field and the map will zoom to that location, if it is colored (and grey is one of the colors) it is in the city, if it is white then it is outside the City limits. Council Wards: https://goo.gl/qcNTYd General Information March 22, 2019 Page 2 Notable Items  The Belle Terrace Overcrossing was demolished this week under full overnight lane closures. The old structure, built in 1963, did not meet Caltrans’ current vertical clearance standards. The new structure will be 294 feet long, 82 feet wide, and have a vertical clearance of 18 feet 6 inches. The new, longer structure will also provide additional space for auxiliary lanes on State Route 99. Beginning next week, the contractor will start excavation operations along State Route 99 in preparation of constructing the abutments and center columns. Nighttime lane closures will again be needed to erect falsework in early summer. The new overcrossing is expected to open to traffic in spring 2020. A time lapse video of the demolition can be viewed at this link: https://youtu.be/fhS0SL7v7ng  I will be on vacation from Friday April 5th through Friday April 19th. Steve Teglia will be in charge from the 5th through the 12th and will fill in for me at the April 10th council meeting. Chris Huot will be in charge from the 15th through the 19th. As usual, the office will have my contact information should that be necessary.  The 2019 Point in Time Count Homeless Data was release this past week. Attached, you will find a press release and report. This year’s count reflected a 50% increase in homeless persons over last year. Of Kern’s homeless population, 80% were located in Metro Bakersfield, of which 44% were sheltered and 56% were unsheltered. The City’s Public Safety Vital Services measure proposals include rapid response teams, but it is also important to remember that this data also supports efforts going forward into the next fiscal year to fund development of additional low barrier shelter beds and for longer-term facilities with quality services and programming. Homelessness is a wicked problem that cities across California are facing. This week, Mayor Goh traveled to Sacramento to implore upon the State the need for continued funding and collaborative efforts to face this social issue. Our special thanks go to the Homeless Collaborative and the 300 volunteers who worked to bring this data to light. The City looks forward to continuing the partnership with local agencies.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Jessica Janssen United Way of Kern County 661.834.1580 Jessica.J@UWKern.org 2019 HOMELESS POINT IN TIME COUNT REFLECTS INCREASE IN HOMELESSNESS INCREASE IN VOLUNTEERS RESULTS IN MORE COMPREHENSIVE COUNT Bakersfield, CA – March 19, 2019 The Kern County Homeless Collaborative reports that 1,330 unduplicated homeless persons were counted countywide in shelters and on the streets during their annual Point in Time Homeless Count which occurred January 30 of this year. This is a 50% increase in number of persons counted from the 2018 Point in Time Homeless Count. There was also a 49% increase in the number of volunteers who participated in helping count and survey those experiencing homelessness in 2019, resulting in a more comprehensive count than the past two years. The Kern County Homeless Collaborative would like to sincerely thank all of the volunteers that made this possible. Homeless subpopulations which reflected increases over last year include: Families with children, who accounted for 16% of the homeless population; veterans, who accounted for 10% of the homeless population, and youth aged 18-24, who made up 8% of the population. The increase in homelessness in Kern County is consistent with data throughout the State, with homelessness continuing to be a growing issue throughout all of California. This can be, in part, attributed to a statewide shortage of affordable housing, among other issues. The Kern County Homeless Collaborative continues to partner with agencies across the County to identify and maximize new resources to address the complex issue of homelessness, some of which include: the Homeless Emergency Aid Program, the California Emergency Solutions Housing program, increased homeless outreach through Kern Behavioral Health and Recovery Services, No Place Like Home funding, Recovery Stations, a Coordinated Entry System, the Home Safe program, and new Measure N funding from the City of Bakersfield. The Kern County Homeless Collaborative’s mission is to put an end to homelessness in Kern County through collaborative planning and action.

This amounts to a 50% increase over the 885 homeless people counted in January 2018. This increase reflects a 118% increase in the number of homeless people—typically single adults—who were unsheltered on the night in question. By comparison, there was only a modest 2% increase in the numbers of people sleeping in emergency shel- ters and transitional housing programs. The Homeless Collaborative attributes the size of the increase to a near 49% increase in the number of volunteers participating in the count, from about 150 volunteers in 2018 to 300 volunteers in 2019. Rural cities and communities also increased their participation in the Count. Additionally, like other California cities and counties, Bak- ersfield and other Kern County areas are currently experiencing a rise in the homeless population due to a statewide shortage of affordable housing. Other Key Findings: o 80% of Kern County’s homeless population was located in Metro Bakersfield, 20% in rural cities and communities outside of Bakersfield. o 44% of Bakersfield’s homeless population had shelter on the count night, 56% were unsheltered. Only 11% of rural homeless people had shelter. o Homelessness in Metro Bakersfield rose by 42% over the previous year, driven by a 108% jump in the number of unsheltered homeless people. Rural homelessness rose by 131%. o Countywide, 85% of homeless families with children had shelter; 69% of sin- gle adults were unsheltered. o Countywide, families with children accounted for 16% of the homeless popu- lation. Children constituted almost 11% of homeless people counted. PIT Counts. The PIT Count is a one-night count and survey of unduplicated homeless people conducted nationwide in the last week of January in communities that receive funding from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It is used to track national, state and local homeless population trends for planning and funding purposes, and to keep the public informed about the work being done to end home- lessness. 2 The Kern County Homeless Collaborative has conducted 10 PIT counts since January 2007. Begun on a biennial basis, these counts have been done annually every January since 2013, as recorded in Table 1 and shown in Chart I. Table 1.

Kern County Homeless Population by Year of PIT Count, and by Sheltered Vs. Unsheltered Status, 2007-2019. Total Homeless Sheltered Unsheltered 3 Where the Homeless Slept Shelters. Of the 525 homeless people who sought shelter on January 30, 74% used an emergency shelter, as shown in Table 2. Seventy one percent (71%) of these indi- viduals and families stayed in one or the other of Bakersfield’s two largest emergency shelters, which had a combined occupancy rate of 96%. The others were housed in three domestic violence shelters, two of which are located in rural communities Table 2.

Of these, 16% were in bridge housing, which is a new kind of transitional housing consisting of short-term hotel or motel stays for individuals or families awaiting placement by an agency into permanent housing. Unsheltered. Of the 805 unsheltered people counted, 80% were found in Metro Bak- ersfield, 20% in rural areas. Of the 643 unsheltered people counted in Bakersfield, 35% were found in Southeast Bakersfield, but Central and Southwest Bakersfield and Oildale also had high concentrations, as shown in Table 3. These distributions are similar to last year’s, except for a significant increase in the portion of unsheltered homeless people found in Southwest Bakersfield (up from 3% to 16%). Of the 162 unsheltered people counted outside Bakersfield, 67% were counted in West Kern, 33% in East Kern. The largest concentrations of unsheltered rural home- less people were found in the Delano/McFarland, Taft and Kern River Valley areas. Table 3.

As shown in Table 4, The 1,330 homeless persons counted were living in 1,111 separate households, including households with at least one adult and one child (i.e., families with children), households with only children, and households without children. Families with children accounted for 6% of all households, and av- eraged about two children per family. Most were single parent families. Only one un- accompanied minor was found on the streets of Bakersfield. Adults without children averaged about 1.1 persons per household. Table 4. Household Status of Homeless Population Type Household Households Adults Children All Persons # % # % # % # % At least one Adult and one Child 66 6% 72 6% 140 99% 212 16% Children only (no adults) 1 1 1% 1 Adults without Children 1,044 94% 1,117 94% 1,117 84% Total 1,111 100% 1,189 100% 141 100% 1,330 100% Gender. The percent of females in the homeless population has risen gradually since the mid-2000s from about 25% to 30% in recent years. Somewhat surprisingly, 51% of females were unsheltered in 2019 compared to 34% in 2018. Sixty-seven (67%) percent of homeless females were in households without children and, of these, 69% were unsheltered. Table 5.

The percentages of children, youth and adults composing the homeless popula- tion are similar to those in previous years, although the numbers are higher due to the increase in homelessness in 2019, as shown in Table 6. This year saw an increase in the percentage of children who were unsheltered (14%) from the previous year (3%). All but one of these unsheltered children was accompanied by an adult(s). Table 6. Age Breakdown of Homeless Population Age Group Number Percent Percent Unsheltered Children (under 18) 141 11% 13% Youth (18-24) 100 8% 60% Older Adults (over 24) 1,089 82% 66% Total 1,330 100% Homeless youths (18-24 years) account for about 8% of the homeless population. Many of these youths have experienced traumatic childhoods and/or recently exited the foster care or juvenile justice systems. Sixty-percent (60%) were unsheltered dur- ing the count. Twenty-eight percent (28%) were female, 72% male. Of the females, 9% were mothers with a total of 15 small children between them. Ethnicity and Race. African American people are significantly overrepresented in the homeless population (15%), compared to their proportion in the Kern County population (6%), as shown in Table 7. Forty-seven percent (47%) of African Ameri- cans were unsheltered. Table 7. Age and Ethnicity Number Percent Ethnicity: Non-Hispanic/Non-Latino 938 71% Hispanic/Latino 392 29% Race: White 978 73% Black/African American 205 15% Asian 10 1% American Indian/Alaska Native 59 4% Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander 10 1% Multiple Races 70 5% Homeless Subpopulations Military Veterans. Veterans accounted for 10% (123 people) of all homeless adults (1,189 people) in January 2019, down from a high of 14% in 2011. Forty-nine percent (49%) of veterans had shelter, typically in emergency shelter or transitional housing provided by the California Veterans Assistance Foundation. Eighty-nine percent (89%) were male, 11% female. Four veterans headed households with a least one child. Ten percent (10%) of veterans were chronically homeless, all but one of who were unsheltered. A higher percentage of veterans were unsheltered this year (51%) than last (8%), probably related to the increased number of homeless counted. 6 Chronically Homeless. HUD defines chronically homeless people as individuals and families who have been homeless for at least a full year or four times in the last three years, and in which cases the individual or adult family head has a chronic mental or physical disability or substance use disorder. Chronically homeless people, especially those who are unsheltered, are extremely needy and vulnerable due to multiple health issues, exposure and length of homelessness. Of the 1,189 homeless adults counted in 2019, 15%, or 178 adults, met the definition of being chronically homeless, including 8 adults who were heads of households with children. Sixty-nine percent (69%) of chronically homeless adults was unsheltered. Despite the higher number of homeless counted this year, the percentage who are chronically homeless continues to go down from earlier rates of around 17% to 20% several years ago. This is due to a concerted effort by the KCHC to outreach and pri- oritize this subpopulation for placement in permanent supportive housing. Other Subpopulations. Other subpopulations of homeless people tracked by the Homeless Collaborative in- clude adults with a serious mental illness, substance use disorder, HIV/AIDS, and sur- vivors of domestic violence, as shown in Table 8 and Chart 2. Mental Illness. Twenty-nine percent (29%) of homeless adults reported a history of treatment or hospitalization for a serious mental illness, 62% of who were unshel- tered. This percentage is higher than found in previous counts, which have ranged from 12% to 25%, but is more in line with state and national studies showing about one-quarter to one-third of homeless adults with a serious mental illness. Substance Use Disorders. Fifty-one percent (51%) of homeless adults reported hav- ing experienced and/or been treated for a substance use disorder. This rate is be- lieved to be more accurate than previous count results, but is still considered an un- derestimate of the extent of substance use disorders in the population because many homeless persons are reluctant to reveal this information. A high percentage (68%) of this subpopulation was unsheltered. Table 8. Other Homeless Subpopulations Adult Subpopulation Sheltered Unsheltered Total % All Adults # % # % Serious Mental Illness 133 38% 217 62% 350 29% Substance Use Disorder 194 32% 411 68% 605 51% HIV/AIDS 3 50% 3 50% 6 0.5% Domestic Violence Sur- vivors 50 44% 64 56% 114 10% HIV/AIDS. Six homeless adults reported that they had HIV/AIDS, one half of who were unsheltered. This was two people more than were counted the previous year. 7 Domestic Violence Survivors. Almost 10% of adults reported that they were homeless now as a result of being a victim of domestic violence, about the same percentage as the previous year. A total of 43 people, including 29 adult women and 14 children were staying in domestic violence shelters on the night in question. 0 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 1400 1600 1800 Chart 2.
