AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY FORM CONTINUED
Background Information:
Historically, the City Commission has allocated its ESG funds to support the operation of the City's
Homeless Program, which provides outreach and referral services to the chronically homeless.
Federal regulations authorizes up to 7.5% of the grant to be utilized for administrative costs to
manage grant related activities.
This funding is provided specifically for Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re -housing Program
("HPRP") portion of the new ESG program but the City's Homeless Program currently does not have
the capacity to manage an HPRP program.
Citrus Health Network, Inc has successfully managed the City's and the County's HPRP programs
for the last two years.
The Administration recommends accepting HUD Entitlement Grant Funds, in the amount of
$203,984, for the second allocation of ESG grant funds for Fiscal Year 2011-2012.
The Administration further recommends the allocation of said funds for Program Year 2011-2012, as
stated herein: the amount of $172,366, to Citrus Health Network, Inc. and the amount of $31,618, to
the City of Miami Department of Community Development for the Administration of grant -related
activities, for a total allocation of $203,984.
