Agenda Item Text:
Approve an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between Cochise County and the Housing Authority of Cochise County for the Housing Opportunities for Persons with Aids (HOPWA) Program for Grant Agreement #AZH140014 for a term of three years from 1/1/15 to 1/1/18.
Background:
On March 11, 2014, the Board of Supervisors authorized the Grant Renewal Agreement 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. This was a continuation of the original grant awarded in January 2011.
This Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) will allow the Housing Authority of Cochise County to continue to administer the Program.
No cash matching funds are required and the County will be reimbursed $17,880 for administrative expenses for the 3 year duration of the grant. There is no impact on the General Budget Fund and this grant is included in the budget.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
The Housing Authority will move forward with the continuation of the HOPWA Program
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
Responsibilities between the County and the Housing Authority will not be properly defined in regards to the HOPWA Program and funding could be eliminated.
