SUBJECT INTERIM FINANCING FOR TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH-SUPPORTED HEALTH
DEPARTMENT PROGRAMS, (TUBERCULOSIS CONTROL, SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED
DISEASE CONTROL, AND REFUGEE HEALTH)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council
1 Authorize the City Manager to apply for FY '97 Texas Department of Health (TDH) grant
contract renewals for the Tuberculosis (TB), Sexually-Transmitted Disease (STD), and
Refugee Health program activity support totaling 5581,271, and
2 Authorize the City Manager to accept and execute TDH grant contract renewals for TB, and
Refugee Health and STD program activities upon receipt, and
3 Adopt the attached supplemental appropriations ordinance increasing appropriations by
$581,271 in the General Fund and decreasing the unreserved, undesignated fund balance
of the General Fund by the same amount for interim financing costs pending the execution
of TDH grant contract renewals for Refugee Health, TB and STD program activities, and
4 Approve the transfer of 5581,271 from the General Fund to the Grants Fund, and
5 Adopt the attached appropriations ordinance, increasing estimated receipts and
appropriations in the Grants Fund by $581,271 from available funds, and
6 Waive the collection of indirect costs, estimated for these two program activities to be
$136,482 based upon the current indirect cost rate of 23 48% in order for the department
to continue its current level of service delivery
DISCUSSION
The Texas Department of Health (TDH) provides funding support to the Health Department in the
form of grant contracts Each year, as grant contracts expire, there is frequently a delay in
receipt of contract renewals The Health Department's TB and STD Control grant contracts
expire August 31, 1996 The Department's Refugee Health grant contract expires September
30, 1996 TDH has authorized contract renewals for these programs, however, renewal
contracts have yet to arrive for execution

SIIBJBCT INTERIM FINANCING FOR TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH-SUPPORTED HEALTH
DEPARTMENT PROGRAMS, (TUBERCULOSIS CONTROL, SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED
DISEASE CONTROL, AND REFUGEE HEALTH)
The $581,271 requested in interim financing will insure a smooth transition between different
program periods (while waiting on contract execution processes within both governmental
agencies) By utilizing the unreserved, undesignated fund balance of the General Fund for interim
financing, projects and appropriations for anticipated grant contracts will be established prior to
the expiration of current contracts Upon receipt of the executed TDH contracts, the unreserved,
undesignated fund balance of the General Fund will be reimbursed in the amount of 5581,271
In recent years, all indirect costs associated with TDH grant contracts were waived by City
Council to maximize potential funding and prevent Public Health Department staff and service
reductions Since TDH funding primarily supports personnel (and funding is typically constant
from year to year) the City's collection of indirect cost allocations would require a substantial
transfer of funds from personnel categories, resulting in reductions of staff and services Based
upon an indirect cost rate of 23 48%, indirect cost allocations would total 5136,482 of
anticipated TDH funding for these programs
Current and anticipated grant contract allocations are as follows
Grant Contract
TB Control
STD Control
Refugee Health
