Blake Rosser said neither document has been updated. He said the ten-year plan was last updated in 2020. Commissioner Portie-Ascott said the document she is looking at outlined the goals. Blake Rosser said that he did not have a copy of plan in front of him. Commissioner Portie-Ascott said has increased access to certain sectors and it was from 2007. Blake Rosser said his understanding of the update is additions to the plan and not commenting on things that have come before but he said that he does want to look into it. Commissioner Portie-Ascott said ending the root causes of homelessness includes employment, so she wanted to know why increasing access to it would be taken out. She said when the presentation gets to that information, she will ask that be included in the monthly data that is reported so they can talk about the progress. Blake Rosser said that his intention of including all the documents was to allow the Board to review them and their plan is to have firm updates by this time next year. He said that staff who would have been present during the last update were no longer with the county, so he does not have a way of asking. Chair Bedford said she was the liaison in 2022 and the gaps analysis needs to be updated for inflation. She said the group had prioritized permanent supportive housing. Blake Rosser said there was an interesting in a draft update that had a table that prioritized every gap on a scale of 1-4.
