More detail
The amendment would define a facility-based service to include certain funded shelter and housing providers. It would cover emergency shelters, temporary shelters, and transitional housing providers that receive local, state, or federal money to shelter homeless people. The funding must be for providing shelter to homeless people.
The amendment would direct an applicant to use the appropriate department, agency, or entity instead of naming a county health department. This wording would apply to the bill's process for addressing the alleged violation.
An applicant would have to notify the local government's governing board and give the local government time to fix the alleged violation. The rule would apply when an applicant alleges that a local government violated the bill's requirements. Notice would have to be sent by U.S. mail or email to the local government's manager or administrator. The local government would have to receive 15 business days to cure the alleged violation. The local government would have to fail to take all reasonable actions within its governmental powers to cure the violation. The 15-business-day cure period would run from the date the applicant sends the written notice.
