EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve a budget amendment in the amount of $6,191 to ensure
continuous funding of the Home Care for the Elderly grant for the Services for Seniors
program from the Area Agency on Aging and authorize eligible expenditures prior to the
execution of the agreement.
OBJECTIVE: To amend the Home Care for the Elderly (HCE) operating budget at the FY08-
09 continuation funding level to allow for uninterrupted support services to Services for Seniors'
frail, elderly clients.
CONSIDERATIONS: For the past 15 years, Collier County Services for Seniors has been
providing in-home support services to Collier County's frail elderly through this state funded
program. This continuation grant in the amount of $72,571, for the period July 1, 2009 through
June 30, 2010 will provide in-home support services through the encouragement and
management of family-type living arrangements in private homes as an alternative to costly and
permanent nursing home care. The majority of these clients would be unable to remain in their
homes without this help. The grant requires no local matching funds.
Historically, Collier County Services for Seniors receives the continuation agreement during the
latter part of June, for the upcoming grant cycle which runs July 1,2009 through June 30, 2010.
When the agreement is received in late June 2009, a budget amendment will be prepared to
reflect the actual allocation.
The total anticipated grant amount of $72,571 is funded from the State of Florida grants and aids
appropriation. Of the total grant award, $6,191 will require a budget amendment to recognize the
direct funding portion to the County for case management. The remaining $66,380 will be
retained by the grantor agency to pay for direct services authorized by Collier County Services
for Seniors.
FISCAL IMPACT: FY09 budget in Services for Seniors fund (123) will increase by $6,191.
The remaining $66,380 will be retained by the grantor agency for direct service provision and
therefore does not affect the County budget. This grant requires no local matching funds.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT: There is no growth management impact from this
recommendation.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed and approved by the County
Attorney's Office. This item is not quasi judicial, and as such ex parte disclosure is not
required. This item requires majority vote only. This item is legally sufficient for Board action.-
CMG
RECOMMENDA TIONS: Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve
the necessary budget amendment to ensure uninterrupted services to elderly clients and authorize
eligible expenditures prior to the execution of the agreement.
