TOWN OF LOS GATOS
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: 12/12/2023 ITEM NO: 1
DATE: December 7, 2023
TO: Mayor and Town Council
FROM: Laurel Prevetti, Town Manager
SUBJECT: Authorize the Town Manager to Enter into an Agreement with Santa Clara
County to Receive a $125,000 Grant for Adult Day Services and/or Case
Management for Older Adults.
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Town Manager to enter into an Agreement (Attachment 1) with Santa Clara
County to receive a $125,000 grant for adult day services and/or case management for older
adults.
REMARKS:
Supervisor Simitian worked with the Town Manager’s Office to develop two budget proposals
for consideration by the Board of Supervisors. One was a grant of $50,000 for case
management for unhoused Los Gatos residents and the other was a grant of $125,000 for adult
day services and/or case management for adults aged 60 years or older. On June 15, 2023, the
Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors approved both grants.
The Town Manager has the authority to enter agreements of less than $100,000 and needs
authorization over this amount. This agenda item would provide the authority to enter into the
agreement for the larger grant. The County said that they needed this done by December 15,
2023 even though they did not provide the documents to the Town until December 4, 2023.
On December 19, 2023, the Town Council is scheduled to discuss the allocation of the older
adult grant funding for adult day services and/or case management in consideration of the
recommendation from the Community Health and Senior Services Commission. The Council
will also be asked to take the appropriate budget actions with the same agenda item.
Attachment:
1. Agreement with Santa Clara County
