14. RESOLUTION TO APPLY AND ACCEPT TRIBAL GAMING FUNDS FOR MARICOPA COUNTY'S READING FOR THE STARS PROGRAM Pursuant to A.R.S. 5-601.02, authorize by Resolution, the application to, acceptance and pass-through of 12% Indian Gaming Funds (Proposition 202 (2002)) from the Ft. McDowell Yavapai Nation for Maricopa County’s Reading for the Stars program in an amount not-to-exceed $400,000 over a three year period. The grant periods will be July 1, 2010-June 30, 2011, July 1, 2011-June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012-June 30, 2013. Authorize the execution of all acceptance documents, including entering into any necessary Intergovernmental Agreements (IGA) between the Ft. McDowell Yavapai Nation and Maricopa County solely for the purposes of acceptance and distribution of funds, upon review and approval of assigned legal counsel. The overall grant budget will be adjusted as necessary to accommodate this grant through a future reconciliation. An agenda item to request a budget adjustment will be submitted subsequent to the award of funds. Indirect costs are not applicable to Tribal Gaming Grants. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore expenditures of these revenues are not prohibited by the budget law. This budget adjustment does not alter the budget constraining the expenditures of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. 42-17105. (C-20-10-032-G-00)
