30. ACCEPT FUNDS FROM DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES/REGION IX OFFICE OF MINORITY HEALTH Approve and accept grant funding from Office of Minority Health to Maricopa County by and through Department of Public Health’s Office of Family Health for the purpose of eliminating health disparities through development of a Center for African American Health. Grant funding is in the amount of $3,000. The term of this grant is from September 10, 2008 through March 9, 2009. Also, approve revenue and expenditure appropriation adjustments to the Public Health (860) Grant Fund (532) Function Code (0000) associated with the aforementioned grant in an amount of $3,000 for FY 2008-09. The appropriations adjustment is necessary because these funds were not included in the FY 2008-09 budget. 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. 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%. This grant allows for full indirect cost reimbursement. Estimated total indirect costs are $458 all of which is recoverable. Funding for this grant is being provided by Department of Health and Human Services’ Region IX Office of Minority Health and will not affect the County general fund. (C-86-09-028-G-00)
