AMEND THE 2012 TITLE III CONSORTIUM GRANT Approve the addition of $14,940 to the previously accepted $181,873.10 for the Title III Consortium grant (12FELENG-270696-03A) from the Arizona Department of Education (ADE) increasing the total award to $196,813.10. The additional funds are the result of new school districts joining the consortium. This grant is a federal entitlement grant that provides funds for the support of students who are learning the English language. These funds also support instructors who teach classes for students who are learning the English language. The term of this grant is for one year, July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012. Authorize the Chairman to sign all documents related to these grant funds, as applicable. MCESA’s indirect rate for FY 2012 is 15.9 percent. The indirect cost rate allowed by this grant source is 0.74 percent. Total indirect costs on this award are $31,063 with $29,618 unrecoverable and $1,446 recoverable. 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 action does not alter the budget constraining the expenditures of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. (C-37-12-023-G-01)
