35. GRANT FUNDS FROM ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF EMERGENCY AND MILITARY AFFAIRS AND BUDGET ADJUSTMENT Approve and accept grant funds for Fiscal Year 2016 from Arizona Department of Emergency and Military Affairs, (CFDA# 97.042), not-to-exceed amount of $732,665.37 for the purpose of emergency planning within Maricopa County. The grant award begins on July 1, 2015 and ends on June 30, 2016. This Grant deviates from County Policy A2505 and does not allow for full indirect cost reimbursement, but a maximum of 10% indirect cost reimbursement as delegated in the Agreement. The Department of Emergency Management's composite indirect rate is 11.9%. The full indirect costs are estimated to at $79,261.07 of which $66,605.94 is recoverable and $12,655.13 is unrecoverable. Additionally, in accordance with A.R.S. §42-17106(B), authorize the following amendment to the FY 2016 Emergency Management (150) Budget: a) Increase the expenditure authority in the Emergency Management (215) Fund, Operating (0000), by $74,799.37 from $963,826 to $1,038,625.37. b) Increase revenue in the Emergency Management (215) Fund, Operating (0000), by $74,799.37 from $963,826 to $1,038,625.37. This increase is needed because the Fiscal Year 2016 budget was developed with only the grant application amount of $657,866 included within the revenue and expenditure totals. The actual awarded amount is $732,665.37 which adds an additional $74,799.37 to the Fiscal Year 2016 revenue and expenditure amounts. The Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) Program provides federal funds to assist state, local, tribal and territorial governments in preparing for all hazards, as authorized by Section 662 of the Post Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act (6 U.S.C. § 762) and the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. §§ 5121 et seq.).
