Agenda 10/24/2017 Item #16A 610/24/2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to recognize carry forward funding for the Collier Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) in the amount of $14,770.97, earned from the Fiscal Year (FY) 2016/17 Transportation Disadvantaged Planning Grant, and to authorize all related necessary budget amendments. OBJECTIVE: To obtain budget appropriation for prior year grant revenue, which was collected in excess of expenditures for the MPO to continue Transportation Disadvantaged (TD) planning efforts as allowed by the Commission for the Transportation Disadvantaged (CTD). CONSIDERATIONS: On July 1, 2016, the MPO entered a lump sum unit reimbursable grant agreement, (Contract Number G0C36) with the CTD to perform planning duties for FY 2016/17. The terms of the grant contract stated that the MPO would be reimbursed upon completion of specific tasks in lieu of actual expenses. On June 30, 2017, the agreement ended and the revenue obtained from the grant exceeded the expenses by $14,770.97. The MPO desires to use the remaining revenue for future TD p l a n n i n g efforts. In order to expend the carry forward balance after grant closeout, reauthorization and transfer of the funds into the MPO’s operating fund (Fund 128) from the MPO’s established grant project fund is necessary. A transfer of excess funds ensures the original intent and purpose of funding is used for TD planning activities.
