23. ACCEPT FUNDING FROM U.S. DEPT OF JUSTICE AND SUB-GRANT TO ARIZONA METH PROJECT 1) Accept federal grant award from U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services under the 2009 COPS Methamphetamine Initiative (CFDA 16.710) in the amount of $1,000,000. The award date is March 11, 2009 through March 10, 2012. The FY 2009-10 County Manager indirect rate is 16.5%. The total grant funds of $1,000,000 will be passed through to a subrecipient and are not subject to indirect charges. Funds are intended for the Arizona Meth Project and will be transferred to the non-profit Arizona Meth Project Inc. 2) Approve an appropriation adjustment to County Manager (200), Non-Departmental grant Fund (249), Non-operating/non-project (0001), increasing the FY 2009-10 revenue and expenditure budgets in an amount not-to-exceed $1,000,000. The grant funding deviates from the Maricopa County Policy for Administering Grants (A2505) which requires all departments/special districts to obtain Board of Supervisors’ approval prior to submitting an application for grant funding. The Justice System Planning and Information Office applied for the appropriation without the required Board of Supervisor approval and is requesting retroactive approval of the application. 3) Approve a Contract between the Arizona Meth Project Inc. (Employer Identification Number 26-3584528) and Maricopa County in the amount of $1,000,000. The purpose of this Contract is to provide funding, received by Maricopa County from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services under the 2009 COPS Methamphetamine Initiative, to the Arizona Meth Project Inc. for the purpose of media and outreach efforts.
