SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)3 BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Community Services Director or her designee to accept growth
and expansion monies from the California State Department of Education in the amount of
$128,410 from July 1, 1995 through June 30, 1996.
II. FINANCIAL EVIPACT:
No County funds are required.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMAMNDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On December 5, 1995 the Board authorized the Community Services Director to re-apply for
continued funding from the California State Department of Education (DOE). The DOE Child
Development funds are part of the General Education Budget for the State. Thus, Child
Development budgets are protected under Proposition 98 and grow at the same percentage as the
population of the State's child population. In July 1995 the State passed a budget which established
$20 million for expansion of General Child Care and State Preschool.
The Community Services Department (CSD) was awarded $128,410 from this $20 million pool of
expansion monies as well as an annualized start-up allowance at 15 percent of the awarded growth
and expansion funding. The additional growth and expansion funds will enable the CSD to provide
General Child Care for 25 additional children and 50 additional State Preschool children during
fiscal year 1995-96.
