Appropriating Funds For The Coronavirus Community Support And Recovery Program (Sena and Gibson, by request)
body
APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THE CORONAVIRUS COMMUNITY SUPPORT AND RECOVERY PROGRAM.
WHEREAS, on March 11, 2020, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham issued Executive Order 2020-004, Order Declaring a State of Public Health Emergency relating to the spread of COVID-19; and
WHEREAS, in subsequent weeks the New Mexico Department of Health issued orders limiting public gatherings and requiring non-essential businesses to close or limit business activity; and
WHEREAS, those experiencing homelessness, and those precariously housed face additional challenges due to the COVID-19 emergency; and
WHEREAS, unanticipated loss of income and job-related health care may cause thousands of Albuquerque residents to be at greater risk of becoming homeless or precariously housed, suffering from decreasing availability of support services, continuing bills, and unanticipated health costs; and
WHEREAS, through Resolution R-20-30, the City Council reallocated funds from the City Clerk to be used for COVID-19 needs, including but not limited to grants to non-profits providing food, shelter, and health services for low-income and at-risk residents whose economic situation has been negatively impacted by the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic.
