City staff will provide a brief background on the alternate response model, the team comprised to work on the program, the procurement process, and the potential services identified for an alternate care center. In addition, City staff will provide a summary of the feedback received from the public Town Hall held on Friday, September 24, 2021. 

The City held a public Town Hall on Friday, September 24, 2021, to provide an update on the alternate response model program and gather feedback from the community on the models Flagstaff should be considering when creating a care center, what services should be addressed by the care center, where may there be a duplication of services within the City, and the best ways to add capacity to serve the community. A copy of the public Town Hall presentation is attached to this staff summary.
