Homeless Resolution.pdfRe5otutt"On
WHEREAS, homelessness is a regional issue affecting every city in Southwestern
Riverside County which can result in the inefficient and fragmented use of public resources,
unacceptable living conditions for families, diminished quality of our communities and ultimately
leads to a recurring cycle of homelessness; and
WHEREAS, previous programs and approaches often had the unintended result of
maintaining homelessness without providing long-term solutions and therefore breaking the
cycle of homelessness; and
WHEREAS, the Community Mission of Hope, cities in Southwest Riverside County, and
various stakeholders have developed a collaborative partnership that addresses the complex
issues of homelessness from a regional perspective and provides homeless outreach services
utilizing public, private and non-profit sector resources; and
WHEREAS, the cities of Temecula, Murrieta, Lake Elsinore, Menifee and Wildomar
declare homelessness a regional issue requiring an effective, measurable and long-term
solution, we hereby pledge and commit to move this program forward by adopting the vision laid
out in the Regional Homeless Alliance charter.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED jointly by the cities of Temecula, Murrieta, Lake
Elsinore, Menifee and Wildomar that we hereby confirm our belief in the goal of breaking the
cycle of homelessness within our communities and working collaboratively to develop a
coordinated system of care.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED on various dates in October 2016.
