This program requires a hard cash match of 25 percent, or $344,276. The total award is $1,377,099. These funds are for the enhancement of drug, gang, and violent crime prosecution. This grant agreement, ACJC number DC-16-027, will commence on July 1, 2015 and will terminate on June 30, 2016. Authorize the Chairman to sign all documents related to these grant funds, as applicable. The grant funds, $1,032,823, may not be expended for any indirect costs which may be incurred by the Maricopa County Attorney's Office or Maricopa County for the administration of this grant (Agreement Page 5, Paragraph 35). The grant allows a 0% rate for indirect costs, or $0 that may be incurred by the County Attorney's Office or Maricopa County for the administration of this grant. The Maricopa County Department of Finance has calculated the County Attorney's Office's composite indirect cost rate at 13%, or $134,267. The recoverable indirect cost of administering this grant is $0; the non-recoverable indirect cost is $134,267. Grant revenues are not "local revenues" for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore budget law does not prohibit the expenditure of these funds. (C-19-15-041-G-00)
