HOPWA Program Re: Transfer of Funds Between HOPWA Grants Dear Ms. Adelman: The Department is requesting that $300,000 be moved from our current Utility Assistance ;rant to provide ongoing financial assistance to our clients to be served under the current Short -Term Housing Assistance and Emergency Housing Assistance contracts through September 30, 2000. The specific request is to move $200,000 to the Short -Term Housing Assistance Contract and $100,000 to the Emergency Housing Contract. The additional $200,000 for Short -Term Housing Assistance will allow us to cover a projected short fall of $106,413 in rental assistance for the existing caseload of 345 cases, with the remaining $93,587 being available for new clients. We are accepting between 50 and 70 new cases monthly for Short -Term Housing. Additionally, we are unable to close out ongoing cases because of the delay in the active cases being approved by the Long Term Housing Assistance Program. The $100,000 in Emergency Housing Assistance will be utilized to serve approximately 100 clients through 9-30-00. We appreciate your assistance in this matter. Should you have any questions or desire additional information, please feel free to contact me at (305)375-2197. Sincerely, William F. Moriarty r.'
