RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council adopt the Resolution approving the amended and updated Advisory Committee on Housing and Homelessness (ACOHH) Bylaws (Attachment 1).
BACKGROUND:
To better address homelessness in Culver City, the City Council at its regular meeting on July 26, 2004 approved the formation of the Homelessness Ad Hoc Committee and adopted short and long-term strategies to address homelessness in the City. The Ad Hoc Committee was fully established and recognized as the Culver City Committee on Homelessness (COH) on April 22, 2008. Although the former COH was established as a full committee, no bylaws were created to govern the body until Council approved bylaws on August 22, 2011.
In 2020, a subcommittee was established to review the current bylaws and recommend updates to better reflect the evolution of the COH to include the topic area of housing in its mission and the name of the body. Chair Karlo Silbiger, Vice-Chair Mark Lipman and Committee Member Dr. Khin Khin Gyi, served on this subcommittee.
