Increased F.R.S. Funding for Aspira
F Dena Spillman, Director
Community Development Department
Per the City C,!mmission's request, the followina 5 Federal Revenue Sharina
funding chanaes provide an additional S34,594 to Aspira of Florida. It
should be reccanized that these chanaes will have a negative effect on
those agencies affected. Options 1 and 2 spread the cuts over all F.R.S.
funded agencies and the remaining 3 options affect a few specific agencies.
OPTION 1
Cut each agency at the same proportion as it is to the total FPS allocation in
order to meet the S34,594 increase at Aspira. (For example: If Agency X
is 10`' of the overall allocation, that Agency's allocation would be reduced
by 10 of S34,594).
Option 1 will have the following impact on the original staff funding recom-
mendations for F.R.S.:
Aaencv
Action Community Center
Aspira of Florida
Belafonte Tacolcv:
Yout;i Vocational Program
Viami Athletic Trainina

OPTION 2
Equal cut across the board for 14 recommended agencies (A reduction of $2,471 per
agency
OPTION 3
Proportionate reduction of the five highest funded agencies to meet the $34,594
increase for Aspira. This option is similar to Option 1 except that it assumes
that the agencies with the highest level of funding can best absorb reductions.
Option 3 will affect the following five (5) agencies:

OPTION 4
Reduce Overtown Day Care Center from $62,000 to $31,000 and H.A..C.A.D. by $3,594.
In FY'81-82, 60c: of Overtown Day Care Center's clients were required to be re-
sidents of either the Overtown or Downtown Neighborhood Strateqy Areas. The Agency
served only 3W° of clients from the mandated areas, which is one half the actual
requirement. Therefore, under this Option, the City's support would be cut in
half to coincide with reduced service to Overtown/Downtown residents. The balance
a, of funds to reach the $34,594 level ($3,594) would be cut from the agency receiving
the largest allocation (H.A.C.A.D.).

OPTION 5
Eliminate fundin at the Coconut Grove Family Clinic ($34,422). This Agency
i� currently funded through Community Development Funds. The City Commission
had previously reduced the total C.D. funding level from $68,844 to $34,422.
However, subsequent to that reduction, the Commission voted to restore funding
to the original $68,844 level if funds could be identified. Staff identified
F.R.S. funds as a possible alternative source. It should also be noted that
the City Commission adopted a motion during the 8th Year C.D. funding process
which limited funds allocated to any specific target area to a maximum per
capita allowance of three times the average per capita allocation to all tar-
get areas. This funding limit is exceeded in the Coconut Grove Target Area
if F.R.S. funds are allocated to the Clinic. Elimination of funds to the
Clinic will bring the Coconut Grove Target Area within the per capita target
area allocation restriction. The remaining $172 would be cut from H.A.C.A.D.,
the Agency with the highest recommended F.R.S. allocation.
