SUBJECT:
Authorization to Execute an Extension of Contract with the Texas Department of Housing and
Community Affairs for the Community Services Block Grant through December 31, 2005 and
Adoption of Related Supplemental Appropriation Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to accept funds in an amount not to exceed $1,200,000 from the Texas
Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) for the Fiscal Year 2005 Community Services
Block Grant (CSBG) program;
2. Authorize a non-interest bearing interfund loan from the General Fund to the Grants Fund in the
amount of$300,000 for interim financing of this grant project pending contract execution;
3. Adopt the attached supplemental appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and
appropriations in the Grants Fund by $1,200,000; and
4. Apply indirect costs at a rate of 20.67%, which represents the most recently approved rate for this
department, and apply the new, approved rate when available.
DISCUSSION:
For the last several years, TDHCA has notified the City to use the prior year's contract amount as a
planning figure pending execution of the contract. TDHCA will reimburse the City for its expenses after the
contract is executed. The total 2004 contract amount was $1,172,623. City staff estimates it will expend
approximately $1,200,000 for this program in 2005.
The extension of the CSBG program would provide for programs and services aimed to assist low-income
persons with case management, emergency assistance, outreach and certification for energy assistance,
information and referral, as well as services to provide clients with transportation to access services for
medical, educational, employment and other needs. Nine neighborhood centers will be utilized to deliver
program services. No matching funds are required from the City.
This program serves ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
