Information
Agenda Item Text:
Approve Grant Renewal Agreement Number AZ-H110018 from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development for the continuation of the Housing Opportunities for Persons with Aids (HOPWA) Program within Cochise County effective from January 1, 2015 to January 1, 2018 in the amount of $655,584.
Background:
In September of 2011, the County submitted an application to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to renew the Housing Opportunities for Persons with Aids (HOPWA) grant. HUD has once again approved to renew the grant in the amount of $655,584 and the grant agreement requires formal approval by the County. The HOPWA Program will continue to be administered by the Housing Authority of Cochise County (HACC).
No cash matching funds are required for the grant. The County will be reimbursed $ 17,880 for administrative expenses for the 3 year duration of the grant agreement. There is no impact on the General Budget Fund.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Prepare an intergovernmental agreement between the County and the Housing Authority of Cochise County after the grant is awarded by HUD.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
Forfeit the available HOPWA funding opportunity and discontinue the program.
To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:
One original of the grant renewal agreement will be provided to the Clerk of the Board. After formal Board action, approval, and Chairman signature, please return completed original to my office. After HUD has signed and returned an original grant agreement to the County, it will be forwarded to the Clerk of the Board for the record. Thank you for your assistance!
