DATE: TO: FROM: COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT April 6, 2009 MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL GREG LARSON, TOWN MANAGER MEETING DATE: April 6, 2009 ITEM NO: 6 DESK ITEM SUBJECT: ALLOCATION OF COMMUNITY
GRANT FUNDS FOR FY 2009110 A. APPROVE THE COMMUNITY AND ARTS GENERAL FUND GRANT ALLOCATIONS FOR INCLUSION IN THE 2009/10 OPERATING BUDGET B. ADOPT A RESOLUTION ALLOCATING FY 2009110
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) FUNDS; AND C. REFER REVIEW OF ANY REQUESTS FOR ADDITIIONAL COMMUNITY GRANT FUNDS TO THE FY 2009110 OPERATING BUDGET PROCESS. Attached to this
Desk Item is a copy of Attachment 1 to Council Report #6 which highlights the Staffrecommendation for grant allocations to non-profit agencies. Human Service Agency Grants: The Staffrecommendation
maintains the current level of total General Fund support for the Human Service Agencies but does not offset the loss ofCDBG funds. The result is a 4% total funding decrease due to the
Federal CDBG cutbacks. The grant allocations would be provided to the agencies as recommended by the Community Services Commission in their decreased funding scenario. Arts Agencies:
The Staff recommendation reduces the total funding for Arts Agencies by 4%. Because Arts Agencies are funded completely with General Fund monies, the recommendation results in a small
savings to the General Fund. This recommendation gives three agencies the same level of funding as the current year and the other two agencies are provided their requested amounts, which
are lower than last year. PREPARED BY: Regina Community Services Director N:\CSD\TCRPTS\2009 1tem.doc Reviewed by:
