[Tehama County] Council to respond to grand jury report on homeless population

Red Bluff >> One of the action items during Tuesday night’s City Council meeting is the response from council on the Tehama County grand jury report regarding the homeless population within city limits and Tehama County.
The grand jury requested a response within 60 days of the release of the report back on June 27. By law the council has 90 days to submit a final report.
Earlier this year, the grand jury found many services available to assist the homeless population, but there could be better collaboration between organizations and city officials, the report stated.
In addition, it was recommended a task force be developed as a way to better unite the groups that support the homeless.
According to the grand jury report, one of the centralized priorities of the task force should be to establish a permanent shelter in Red Bluff.
