She referred to page 32, and Community Empowerment requested $39,050, 18 <br />and $19,050 was specifically for the County’s proposed shared of the permanent housing 19 <br />location position. She said the Manager is amenable to this, and would like to put this under 20 <br />contract to the Partnership to End Homelessness. 21 <br />Commissioner Greene said this would not be the whole share, and as of tonight, neither 22 <br />Chapel Hill nor Carrboro have funded their portions yet, but she is advocating for this position. 23 <br />She said if the County is the only entity that funds this position, there will be insufficient funding. 24 <br />She said this position exists so that when one calls the PTEH, at the brink of homelessness, 25 <br />they would be referred to this person who has a strong network of available housing. 26
