SUBJECT: Consider Adoption of Resolution Amending the FY 03/04
Budget by Appropriating OAA Grant Funds for Active
Adult Center Lifeline Devices
SUMMARY
The City has been awarded $6,700 in Older Americans Act (OAA)
Title III -B grant funds from the Ventura County Area Agency on
Aging (VCAAA) for the Lifeline Program. The City Council is
being asked to adopt the attached Resolution, amending the FY
03/04 budget to formally appropriate an additional $6,700 in
funds.
DISCUSSION
As you will recall, at the May 7, 2003 City Council meeting, the
Council authorized the City to apply for OAA grant funds from
VCAAA for the Lifeline Program at the Moorpark Active Adult
Center. The grant money will be used to purchase nine additional
Lifeline devices.
The City's Active Adult Center has participated in the Lifeline
Program since July 1991, providing public information, intake,
applications and devices to frail, low - income senior citizens
that are homebound. The City has partnered with Simi Valley
Hospital to provide volunteers, equipment and support for at-
risk elders. A senior activates the Lifeline device by pressing
a button. When activated, the device places a call to the
Hospital's emergency room and a designated person responds to
the call. By linking participating seniors to the Lifeline
Program, residents achieve a greater sense of security, knowing

they can immediately call for assistance if they experience an
emergency while continuing to live independently at home.
The senior population continues to grow, increasing requests to
participate in the Lifeline Program. The addition of these new
devices will bring the City's total inventory to 34 and will
have a very positive effect on Moorpark's Lifeline Program.
