PURPOSE: To receive comments on the Home and Community Care Block
Grant Funding Plan.
BACKGROUND: The State Department of Human Resources established the
Home and Community Care Block Grant which became
effective July 1, 1992. The grant did not create new
funding streams, but combined funds appropriated to the
Department on Aging, Department of Social Services and
Joint Orange Chatham Community Action Agency to
administer programs for senior citizens.
On May 4, 1995 the Home and Community Care Block Grant
Advisory Committee met and endorsed a recommended
funding plan for fiscal year 1994-95. The block grant
requires the Board of Commissioners to conduct a public
hearing to receive comments on the recommended funding
plan. The recommended funding plan for the 1994-95
fiscal year is $5,057 less than the 1994-95 fiscal year.
RECOMMENDATION(S) : The Manager recommends that the Board
conduct the public hearing; and approve the
1995-96 Home and Community Care Block Grant
Funding Plan as endorsed by the Home and
Community Care Block Grant Advisory Committee.
