For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are: • An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien, • A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States, • An estate (other than a foreign estate), or • A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7). Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding tax on any foreign partners' share of income from such business. Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, a partnership is required to presume that a partner is a foreign person, and pay the withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S. status and avoid withholding on your share of partnership income.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: On October 15, 2012, staff presented recommendations regarding homelessness and the quality of life in Downtown San Rafael. The staff recommendations were developed from the work of the City Council subcommittee and the community stakeholders group. A multipronged approach is now under way, with short-term and long-term strategies, including approaching issues surrounding mental health, serial inebriates, crime, affordable housing, and public education. These initiatives are summarized in the City's Homeless Action Plan, which was adopted on June 3, 2013. The Homeless Action Plan can be found on the City's website at: httn://docs. c itvofsanrafael.orv/EconDev/l lomeless%2OAction%20Plan%2OJune%202013 .udf One of the strategies in the Plan is to provide an avenue for members of the street population to obtain work experience through cleaning up Downtown. On February 19, 2013, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 13502 authorizing the City Manager to enter into a contract with the Downtown Streets Team organization in an amount not to exceed $272,000 to carry out such a program.
