15. DONATION OF FUNDS FROM THE VOLUNTEER CENTER OF MARICOPA COUNTY Approve the donation of funds in the amount of $6,000 from The Volunteer Center of Maricopa County to Maricopa County through the Department of Public Health. This grant-like donation of funds is made to the Department of Public Health's Emergency Management Program (PHEM). Also, approve revenue and expenditure appropriation adjustments to the Public Health Grant Fund (Department 860, Fund 532) associated with the aforementioned grant in an amount of $6,000. The appropriations adjustment is necessary because these funds are additional and were not included in the FY 2008-09 budget. Donation of funds 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. The approval of 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. The Department of Public Health's indirect rate for FY 2008-09 is 18%. Indirect cost reimbursement in the amount of $915 is fully recoverable. Donation funds are “non-local” revenue for purposes of the constitutional expenditure limitation. Therefore, the budget law does not prohibit expenditure of funds. This donation does not alter the budget constraining the expenditure of local revenues that was duly adopted by the Board of Supervisors pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105.Funds are made available from The Volunteer Center and do not effect the County's general fund.
