Additional Backup Information:
If approved, the Housing Department will be authorized to negotiate and execute an amendment to the agreement with Austin-Travis County Mental Health and Mental Retardation Center d/b/a Integral Care (Integral Care) for renovating the Bungalows at Century Park (formerly known as Texas Bungalows Hotel and Suites) located at 13311 Burnet Road, Austin, Texas 78727 to extend the term of the agreement to May 30, 2024, and to provide for an additional extension of the term if needed. The extension is being requested due to flood damage and foundation issues that had to be repaired prior to the commencement of the renovations.
Following the renovation of the property, Integral Care will operate the facility, which will include 60 fully furnished efficiency apartments. Each apartment will contain one bed. Potential residents will be referred through the Ending Community Homelessness Coalition Coordinated Entry System. Eligible individuals will be single adults with a documented history of chronic homelessness and a disabling condition. This is a permanent resident site where individuals will receive a yearly lease to live in the facility. To ensure that individuals have access to the right level of care to support their recovery and maintain housing, Integral Care will provide onsite support services, including case management, service coordination, living skills training, housing stability support, assistance accessing basic needs, and community building activities.
