AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Tom Kruse, Parks and Recreation DirectorU
PREPARED BY: Peggy Rothschild, Active Adult Center Supervisor
DATE: April 26, 2010 (CC Meeting of May 5, 2010)
SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Authorizing Submittal of a Grant
Renewal Application to the Ventura County Area Agency
on Aging (VCAAA) for Older Americans Act Title III-C
Contract Grant Funds for the Senior Nutrition Program,
and Authorizing City Manager to Sign All Related
Agreements
SUMMARY
The VCAAA has issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to Ventura County Senior
Nutrition Program sites to submit renewal applications for program funding. The
VCAAA currently administers the Senior Nutrition Program at 14 locations
throughout the county. The funds to operate this program are derived from a
combination of sources, including Federal Older Americans Act (OAA),
participant donations, local grants, and in-kind donations.
DISCUSSION
The City Council is being asked to adopt a resolution (Attachment A) approving
and authorizing the submittal of a grant application to the Ventura County Area
Agency on Aging (VCAAA) for $21,362 in Older Americans Act (OAA) Title III-C
contract grant funds for the Senior Nutrition Program. Funding amounts are
allocated to sites within Ventura County based on the percentage of total
countywide participants served at each site.
During FY 2004-05, the countywide Senior Nutrition Program was restructured,
and the City assumed responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the Senior
Nutrition Program lunch site in Moorpark, receiving partial program funding from
VCAAA. In 2009-10, a total of $27,253 was awarded in Senior Nutrition Program
grant funds: $17,835 in program funds plus a ten percent (10%) baseline funding
increase of $3,526; one-time-only grant of $3,891; and American Recovery and

Reinvestment Act (ARRA) grant of $2,000. In addition to these OAA grant funds,
VCAAA purchases and contracts for delivery of the frozen meals to the City. As
part of our agreement, the City applies all donations collected from meal site
participants against program costs.
The grant funds available through the current RFP are for Senior Nutrition
Program meal site operation which includes congregate and home-delivered
meals. Congregate and home-delivered meals are cooked on-site, Monday
through Friday, excluding holidays. Congregate meals are served at noon and
home-delivered meal service is provided between 11 a.m. — and noon. Delivery
of frozen meals during regular delivery hours for the weekend and holidays can
be made by advance arrangement.
This grant application will be for the third year in a three-year renewal grant.
Completed applications are due to VCAAA by May 7, 2010 at 5:00 p.m.
FISCAL IMPACT
Since FY 2004-05, the City has received senior nutrition grant funds to provide
congregate and home-delivered meals at the Active Adult Center. The funds and
respective program expenditures have been included in subsequent approved
City budgets. The grant funds, along with the meal donations cover
approximately 90 percent of the program's direct costs (part-time kitchen aid,
supplies, mileage for volunteer drivers). This does not include overhead costs
(full-time staff and utilities). The estimated direct costs for FY 2009/10 are
$36,500 and estimated revenues are $34,100. It is anticipated that the General
Fund will subsidize the remaining $2,400 and that the FY 2010/11 budget will be
similar.
