49. APPLY AND ACCEPT FUNDS FROM ARIZONA DIVISION OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT Approve the application and acceptance of grant funds from Arizona Division of Emergency Management, (EMPGFFY2008), in the not-to-exceed amount of $432,660 for the purpose of supporting emergency planning within Maricopa County . The grant award begins on October 1, 2007 and ends on September 30, 2009. Authorize the Chairman to sign all documents related to these grant funds, as applicable. The grant allows for full indirect cost recovery. The Maricopa County Department of Finance has calculated the Department of Emergency Management's composite indirect cost rate at 13.80%, or $52,466.68. The recoverable indirect cost of administering this grant is $52,466.68. Upon receipt of funds and pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17106(B), a budget adjustment of $432,660.00 is not required since the grant was part of the FY 2008-09 base budget. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore, expenditure of the funds is not prohibited by the budget law. This budget adjustment does not alter the budget constraining the expenditure of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. (C-15-09-008-G-00)
