EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve a budget amendment in the amount of $7,813 to ensure
continuous funding of the Home Care for the Elderly grant.
OBJECTIVE: To amend the Home Care for the Elderly (HCE) operating budget at the FY07-08
continuation funding level to allow for uninterrupted support services to Services for Seniors'
frail, elderly clients.
CONSIDERATIONS: For the past 14 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 !,'l'ant in the amount of $115,329 for the period July I, 2008 through
June 30, 2009 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 agreements during the
latter part of June, for the upcoming grant cycle which runs July I, 2008 through June 30, 2009.
When final contracts arc received in late June 2008, budget amendments will be prepared to
reflect the actual allocation.
The total grant amount of $115,329 is funded from the State of Florida grants and aids
appropriation. Of the total !,'l'ant award, $7,813 will require a budget amendment to recognize the
direct funding portion to the County for case management. The remaining $107,516 will be
retained by the grantor agency to pay for direct services authorized by Collier County Services
for Seniors.
FISCAL IMPACT: FY08 budget in Services for Seniors fund (123) will increase by $7,813.
This grant requires no local matching funds.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT: There is no growth management impact from this
recommendation.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staffrecommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve
the necessary budget amendment to ensure continuous funding of the Home Care for the Elderly
grant.
