Therefore we need to do a budget amendment for the above item (see attachment) to obtain Council approval to accept the grants in the amount of $3949.10 and $352 for a total of $4301.10 to go toward supplemental food items for the meals for homebound seniors program. I would like to add it to the January 28th agenda. Thanks to all for your assistance on this! Regards, Stephen 1/16/2008 City of La Porte Parks & Recreation Memo To: Stephen Barr, Director of Parks & Recreation Michael Dolby, Acting Finance Director From: Karen Beerman, Special Services Superintendent Date: January 8, 2008 Re: Texans Feeding Texans Home-Delivered Meals Grant In September John Joerns received information from Harris County Judge Ed Emmett about HB 407 which set up a grant program that reimburses organizations for home-delivered meals served above and beyond the number of meals reimbursed by Area Agency on Aging. The grant, Texans Feeding Texans Home Delivered Meals is administered by the Texas Department of Agriculture. For FY07, we served 8581 HB meals, were reimbursed from AAA for 7126 leaving 718 home delivered meals we were not reimbursed for. I submitted the necessary information and documentation to Harris County in October. Later that month I received notice of a grant award for FY08 for $352 from Harris County. This grant is contingent upon La Porte being awarded a grant from the Texas Department of Agriculture. I submitted the certification from Harris County and all other necessary information to the State and in December received an award letter for a grant of $3,949.10. These funds must be used to directly supplement or extend existing meal services to the homebound elderly. I plan to purchase Heater Meals, meal supplements (fruit, holiday baskets, etc.) in addition to funding the unreimbursed meals for FY08. At this point, I need to submit an invoice to Harris County for the amount due us from the county grant ($352). Michael Dolby indicated the three of us should meet to discuss the grant and how best to set up the account. Please advise. T L -\,- · ':::. ....l.
