(a) Participating county matching funds for projects funded under this chapter shall be a minimum of 25 percent of the total project costs. The CSA may reduce matching fund requirements for participating counties with a general population below 200,000 upon petition by a participating county to the CSA requesting a lower level of matching funds. (b) The CDCR and CSA shall give funding preference to counties that assist the state in siting reentry facilities, pursuant to Section 6270. The CSA shall, to the extent possible, ensure that funds for the construction of new jail beds be coordinated with CDCR’s efforts to site new reentry facilities. (c) The CDCR and CSA shall give funding preference to counties that assist the state in siting mental health day treatment and crisis care, pursuant to Section 3073 of the Penal Code, and to counties that provide a continuum of care so that parolees with mental health and substance abuse needs can continue to receive services at the conclusion of their period of parole.
