799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Donald P. Reynolds Jr., Administrative Services Manager
DATE: October 28, 1992
SUBJECT: Consider Ratification of City Manager's Authorization to
expend $200 for Rental Assistance to a Moorpark Family
from the Social services Account
The following report requests that the City Council ratify the City
Manager's approval of rental assistance to a Moorpark family which
occurred on Friday, October 23, 1992.
Background
On February 8, 1988, the City Council adopted Resolution 88 -450
establishing the Moorpark Operating Procedure, ( "MOP "), which
defined the use of the City's social services account,
(001.4.117.641). If assistance is requested from this account for
a Moorpark resident for $200 or less, the City Manager can approve
the expenditure, but must cause the City Council to ratify this
approval at the next regular City Council meeting.
Funds have been set aside in this account since fiscal year
1988/89. Typically, a request is submitted to staff either by a
local non - profit agency, resident or City Councilmember. The
request is reviewed by staff and if found to be legitimate,
referred to the City Manager for approval.
Discussion
Last week, the City Manager approved rental assistance to a single
mother in risk of losing her rented apartment due to a delay in
receiving unemployment funds. The request was made by Catholic
Charities' Senior Caseworker, Mr. Ruben Castro.
Staff confirmed with Mr. Castro that the written information was
current and accurate and also confirmed that this is a Moorpark
resident. The person was also in need of an additional $183, which
was donated by other non - profit agencies in the City.
Mr. Castro is working with the Employment Development Department to
see if the benefits can be expedited. If so, this appears to be a
one time occurrence. -)ORPARK, CALI,C:<.'
