IT E M S UMMARY:
T he S trategic P artners hips for C ommunity S ervic es Advisory Board met on T hurs day, Augus t 6, 2020 to
review and vet grant applications and make allocation recommendations for the F Y 2020-21 grants for the
C ity C ounc il's c onsideration.
After the meeting c onc luded on T hursday, August 6th, it was dis covered that there was a problem with the
formula utilized in an Excel s preads heet to c alculate the total of the allocation recommendations and the
allocations that were to be rec ommended to the C ity C ouncil were over the $400,049 that is alloc ated in the
F Y 2020-21 P roposed Budget for this program. Additionally, while the Advisory Board vetted the
applications and made rec ommendations for the allocation of the grant funds , an official vote was
inadvertently not taken to approve all of the rec ommendations at the end of its deliberation.
Acc ordingly, the Advisory Board is meeting on Monday, Augus t 10, 2020 to disc uss and review the
allocation recommendations , make any necessary adjus tments to bring the allocation recommendations in
alignment with the budget propos ed for this program in the F Y 2020-21 Annual Budget, and to confirm the
Advisory Board's final allocation recommendations to the C ity C ounc il.
F IN AN C IAL IMPAC T:
T he F unding for S trategic P artners hips for C ommunity S ervic es is allocated in the propos ed F Y 2020-21
Budget.
