Funding amounts are allocated to sites within Ventura County based on the percentage of total countywide participants served at each site. 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. 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 2008-09, $17,835 in grant funds was awarded and a one-time-only grant of $7,778. In addition to these OAA grant funds, VCAAA purchases and contracts for delivery of the frozen J00264 Honorable City Council May 20, 2009 Page 2 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 second year in a three-year renewal grant. Completed applications are due to VCAAA by June 1, 2009 at 4:00 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 each subsequent approved City budgets. The grant funds, along with the meal donations cover approximately 95 and 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 2008/09 are $32,800 and estimated revenues are $31,700. It is anticipated that the General Fund will subsidize the remaining $1,100 and that the FY 2009/10 budget will be similar.
