RE: RJ;\_YISED NOTICE OF GRANT AWARD DETERMINATION: FY2010/2011
FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION SECTION 5310, "ELDERLY AND
PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES" PROGRAM. (WITH CONFIRMATION OF
AVAILABILITY OF FY 2009/10 FUNDS)
Dear Ms. Carter:
The Florida Department of Transportation, District One selected the Collier Board of County
Commission as a Fiscal Year 2010/2011 grant award recipient under the Federal Transit
Administration Section 5310, "Elderly and Persons with Disabilities" Program. This award is
based on your agency's application dated December 23, 2009. The Department is providing
$207,103,50 in Fiscal Year 2010/2011 Federal and state funds to Collier County. This amount
must be matched with $23,011.50 in local funds.
Because the price of the vehicles requesled and granted to Collier County increased significantly
after the grant application was filed, and because Collier County has available unspent Federal
Transit Administration Section 5310 grant funds from Fiscal Year 2009/20 I 0, the Department is
able to amend the grant notification form previously sent to Collier County to confirm the cost of
the vehicles, and to confirm the availability of the unspent FY 2009/2010 funds.
A revised Notice of Grant Award is enclosed. It contains the capital equipment description and
specific amount awarded to your agency, pending Federal approval of the State's Program of
Projects. The revised Notice of Grant Award shows the amount awarded from FY 2010/11 and
the amount available from FY 2009/10. In order to complete the purchase of the three vehicles,
Collier County will need to supply $26,068.50 as the local cash match.
