85. ACCEPTANCE AND USE OF GIFT CARDS FOR THE MARICOPA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH SOUTH PHOENIX HEALTHY START PROGRAM Approve the acceptance and use of gift cards to local grocery stores provided by the American Heart Association, Inc. (AHA), to Maricopa County by and through its Department of Public Health (MCDPH), South Phoenix Healthy Start Program (SPHSP) to assist with nutrition insecurity. The MCDPH SPHSP received a donation of $4,000 in gift cards to local grocery stores that will be provided to citizens of Maricopa County to support nutrition insecurity efforts. This award was non-competitive and is the first time MCDPH SPHSP has received a donation of gift cards from the AHA. The Agreement has been written to become effective October 01, 2023, and remain in effect for a period of one (1) calendar year, with the possibility of extensions for additional periods of up to one (1) year by mutual written agreement of the parties. Cash and/or in-kind match is not applicable, nor would ongoing cash contributions be required should gift cards cease to be provided to the program. The MCDPH SPHSP services for nutrition insecurity are not a mandated function but provide a benefit to the citizens of Maricopa County. Program costs associated with the donations are absorbed by the MCDPH SPHSP grant budget and administration costs are absorbed by the department’s operating budget. MCDPH’s indirect rate for FY24 is 15.65%. This in-kind donation does not allow for indirect, therefore, indirect expense estimated at $626.00 is not recoverable. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore expenditure of the revenues is not prohibited by the budget law. This donation does not alter the budget constraining expenditures of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. The overall grant budget will be adjusted as necessary to accommodate this donation through a future reconciliation. Funding is provided by a donation from AHA and will not affect the County’s general fund. (C-86-24-068-X-00)
