Federal funds payable by the State to the County of El Dorado for LIHEAP services are included in the Department's FY 2010-11 Recommended Budget.
Reason for Recommendation:
On February 24, 2009 the Board adopted Resolution No. 034-2009 authorizing the execution of Agreement 09B-5508 with the California Department of Community Services and Development (CSD) in the amount of $1,521,911 during the term January 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010. On August 25, 2009 the Board adopted Resolution No. 194-2009 authorizing the execution of Amendment 1 to Agreement 09B-558, which allocated an additional $5,143 in funding for provision of LIHEAP services to eligible residents of El Dorado and Alpine Counties.
Amendment 2 to Agreement 09B-5508 extends the agreement term through September 30, 2010 to allow for full expenditure of the 2009 funding. LIHEAP services have historically been in great demand, and high energy costs render them even more critical to the many frail, vulnerable residents on fixed incomes.
Action to be taken following Board approval:
Board Clerk to provide Human Services at 3057 Briw Road with:
1. Three (3) originals of Amendment 2 to Contract 09B-5508 signed by the Chair
2. Three (3) Certified Resolutions
3. Two (2) certified minute orders.
Human Services to distribute as appropriate and return one fully executed Contract to the Board Clerk.
