Docusign Envelope ID: 077957AD-B8D2-47C7-8A69-F01086E79D6A Scope of Work — Exhibit A Revised South King County Shelter Grant Program City of Tukwila (.INTRODUCTION Over 11,000 people experience homelessness on any given day in King County (the County). With the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for emergency shelters has grown. The goal is to use this funding to de -intensify existing shelters by providing more shelter capacity to rapidly serve unsheltered families or individuals, to reduce the risk of contact spreading among encampments and those living unsheltered by, among other things, providing temporary lodging, food, support, and services to unhoused individuals currently residing in or near the applicant city. To that end, the County will provide one-time funding to cities located in south King County to site, construct, operate, and/or projects that benefit people living unsheltered and mitigate the negative impacts of living unsheltered, such as, day centers, hygiene services, sanctioned encampments and Shelter within the city for serving unsheltered individuals or families. The City of Tukwila (the City) is a growing and diverse community, with a history of providing funding and supportive services throughout the city for vulnerable populations. The City traditionally provides funding and resources directly for unhoused populations, including food, shelter, case management, and more through a collaborative process with regional partners. In the beginning of 2023, the City experienced an influx of hundreds of asylum seekers (with no access to traditional resources) seeking shelter at Riverton Park United Methodist Church (RPUMC, a local Tukwila church). For more than a year, the City began taking an active role and directly supported efforts at the church by providing onsite staff assistance, direct services, temporary sheltering, waste/cleanup services, and more. This wave of asylum seekers residing and seeking services, within Tukwila, has quickly exacerbated the overall number of families and individuals experiencing homelessness in Tukwila. The city of Tukwila is a small city trying to support a growing, regional problem. The city has 22,000 people in a metro region of 4,000,000 and is unable to respond and develop sustainable models, without the support of regional partners like King County. Due to the diverse needs of asylum seekers and general homeless populations in Tukwila, Tukwila has included an array of shelter, housing, and services in the Scope of Work. This includes allocating funding towards transitional housing capital improvements, emergency sheltering for asylum seekers, tiny homes for the unhoused, shelter beds and support services, and transitional housing programs. The City's intent is to use this King County funding to support all vulnerable, unhoused populations in Tukwila. The City intends to fund services and programs that can be tailored for both asylum seekers and the general homeless populations in Tukwila. II.OBJECTIVES The City of Tukwila's overarching goals for the programs are as follows: Docusign Envelope ID: 077957AD-B8D2-47C7-8A69-F01086E79D6A • Homeless services, including asylum seeker services, are available, accessible, and tailored to the needs of the community • Increase the number of diverse shelter and housing programs for the varying types of unhoused populations in Tukwila • Address growing feed insecurity within south King County. III.PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The City of Tukwila intends to increase tailored services, resources, and programs that allow unhoused populations to stabilize and work towards their long-term stability. The unhoused populations the city will support with this funding are those from our general homeless population, as well as the surge of asylum seekers without aid and seeking help in our city. For identified asylum seeker services, the City plans to leverage newly awarded State/Commerce funds to offset service costs identified below. This grant will be used to fund the following service types and strategies: 1. Shelter Beds & Support Services Tukwila has engaged with several agencies, including United Methodist Churches to increase shelter, bed capacity for asylum seekers in the region. Tukwila plans to continue building bed capacity across identified church partners or other agencies. Tukwila operated and funded a white FEMA -style tent used at RPUMC to shelter and address public health/safety issues at RPUMC and plans to continue to deploy strategies to increase shelter bed availability. Faith based partners currently under contract and anticipated to continue services via this contract are First United Methodist Church, New Covenant Church, Sure House Church, and other newly identified community partners. 2. Rental Assistance & Transitional Housing Programs Create a tailored, rental financial assistance program (with case management) for working/work-able households who need assistance to stabilize in their new homes and have high barriers to permanent housing. Tukwila began engagement efforts with Muslim Community Resource Center about their transitional housing/rental assistance program. City would like a tapered assistance model with amount/length of financial assistance dependent on financial need. Tukwila would like to deploy programs for up to 6 months of assistance, but the amount of assistance is dependent to the unique needs of households enrolled in the program. Documentation requirements include copies of rental costs from lease agreements and receipts of payment from the property/landlord. 3. Direct Client Assistance Provide financial assistance for housing move -in costs and costs related to addressing households' barriers to permanent housing (i.e., application fees, documentation fees, security deposits, etc.). Tukwila plans to partner with RPUMC and/or other identified agencies to provide this funding to move unhoused families into permanent housing. This funding will be used over the course of the contract, not in one month, as one time assistance but varies depending on household need. Documentation will be collected, including receipts, invoices, and relevant documentation outlining housing -related expenses and payments made. Docusign Envelope ID: 077957AD-B8D2-47C7-8A69-F01086E79D6A 4. Support Services Tukwila will provide services that directly support unhoused populations. This includes case management, housing navigation, outreach, monitoring, and legal services. Tukwila intends to partner with i2 -strategies and other agencies for ongoing monitoring, housing navigation, and outreach support. 5. Transitional Housing Capital Improvements Tukwila owns two homes currently used as transitional housing for unhoused and managed by St. Stephen's. Their programming includes case management and resource navigation. The homes need to be updated to address ongoing issues related to safety and sanitation. For example, a deck needs to be replaced in one of the homes and in another significant plumbing improvements are needed. All capital costs to be incurred in 2025. November 16, 2025: The City intends to focus on just the Gregor House for the improvements, which requires significant more work than initially anticipated and is also in worst shape than Harnett Manor. • Gregor House: 14239 42nd Ave South, Tukwila, WA 98168 6. Tiny Homes Tukwila seeks to expand the number of tiny homes available to the homeless population. The City of Tukwila has engaged with Church by the Side of the Road to explore partnership opportunities, as well as LIHI. The location, operator, and set-up agency is still yet to be determined and confirmed. 7. Consultant Services a. Tukwila intends to continue contractual services with i2 -strategies for their subject matter expertise to support with the implementation/execution with new homeless services programs and/or policies for the City. Types of work include: Facilitate city meetings with community partners and staff, develop and provide strategic recommendations about asylum seeker and homelessness response, collaborate and coordinate response strategies in concert with nonprofits, churches, intergovernmental bodies, and community partners generally; provide support with contractual development and negotiation with community partners for service provision.
