IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
At the Council Workshop meeting of February 12th, staff presented City Council with
a discussion on the possibility of enacting regulations relating to homeless shelters or
encampments in terms of land use permitting. While the discussion on the need for
establishing such standards was straightforward and will involve a development of
those standards, the topic generated further discussion on number of related issues
pertaining to the provision of housing services for community members in need.
The issues surrounding homelessness and the need for sheltering, temporary and
permanent housing for those in various stages of need are complex and involve many
public, non-profit and private agencies and efforts. The need for such services is
evidenced in rural and urban environments across the nation. Within the Tri-Cities
there are numerous entities working together to assist community members in need.
To help inform Council of some of the major efforts in play in the Tri -Cities and in
Pasco, staff has invited representatives from the Franklin County/City of Pasco
Housing Authority (provider of affordable housing services); the Continuum of Care
(CAC - provider of a wide variety of services), Habitat for Humanities (facilitator of
permanent owner-occupied housing) and the Union Gospel Mission (UGM - provider
of homeless sheltering, training and other services) to address City Council with a
presentation on their respective core missions, the focus of their respective efforts and
how each plays a role in addressing these issues. As part of his presentation Mr. Porter
of the UGM will also brief Council on the status of their new facility construction

south of Columbia and east of 4th Avenue and how it will enhance their capabilities.
Each of these agencies has a significant role in assisting the community with services
that touch upon the complex issues of housing and homelessness. And rise in
homelessness itself, part mart of a much larger array of interrelated social issues at the
local, state and national level.
