72. APPROVE AND ACCEPT GRANT FUNDS FROM ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY FOR EPIDEMIOLOGICAL FIELD SURVEILLANCE FOR MASS GATHERING EVENTS Approve and accept grant funds from Arizona Department of Homeland Security (AZDOH) for epidemiological field surveillance for Mass Gathering Events such as the Super Bowl, Subrecipient Agreement Number: 230812-01. The purpose of this grant is to provide supplies, equipment, and training for the Public Health Surveillance Field Team Operations during major mass gathering events. The grant award has a not-to-exceed amount of $8,276. The term of this award is from October 1, 2023, through September 30, 2024. This is a new grant award opportunity, and the reoccurrence is unknown. There are no cash or in-kind match requirements, and on-going contributions will not be required. This is not a mandated service but provides a benefit to our citizens by improving public safety at mass gathering events. The grant allows for the full indirect rate for FY24 of 15.65%. Indirect cost is estimated to be $1,119.93, all of which is recoverable. All program costs are allocated to the grant so there will be no additional burden on the department’s operating budget. 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 Agreement 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 grant through a future reconciliation. Funding for this Agreement is provided by a grant from AZDOH and will not affect the County’s general fund. (C-86-24-082-X-00)
