This document is a signed Director Decision Letter from Tuolumne County, California, regarding the Miner's Motel affordable housing development project at 18740 State Highway 108 in Jamestown. The letter documents the County's selection decision for a development partner to acquire, rehabilitate, and operate the property as a permanent affordable housing community serving individuals experiencing homelessness. The project is designed under a Housing First, low-barrier model and will be 100% affordable, restricted to households at or below 80% Area Median Income (AMI). The selected developer will coordinate with County departments and community partners to provide on-site services, behavioral health connections, and tenancy support as part of the County's broader homelessness response system.

The project is funded through Tuolumne County's Encampment Resolution Fund (ERF) Round 3 Lookback award, which was specifically allocated for the purpose of delivering stable, long-term housing paired with supportive services for individuals exiting encampments and those experiencing chronic homelessness in the County. The decision letter formalizes the County's selection of a qualified organization to implement this housing solution, establishing the framework for a development partnership intended to produce measurable, long-term outcomes in addressing homelessness in this rural California community.
