BACKGROUND: 1. The Orange County Arts Commission has received two grants from the North Carolina Arts Council. The first grant, totalling $2,000 is a local government challenge grant which will enable the Arts Commission to further support the arts in Orange County. The second grant, totalling $16,636, is a grassroots grant. This grant will allow the Arts Commission to provide sub-grants to various organizations throughout the County as they promote art programs for citizens. (See block#1, page 3) 2. It is planned for the Orange County Library to become a department of Orange County local government on March 1, 1993. In the 1992-93 approved budget, $255,000 was allocated to the Library in the Contributions to Outside Agencies function. In order for this transition to occur and ensure that financial obligations are met, it is necessary to transfer four months of the Library's budgeted funds ($85,000) from the Contributions to Outside Agencies function to the Human Services function and establish the Library as a department. (See block#2, page 3) Additional funds for the Library are forthcoming from the Regional System. These funds will become available once an audit review of the Regional System is completed. Another budget amendment is anticipated during the Spring to receive these additional funds. 3. On January 19, the Board of County Commissioners accepted a four-year grant from the Kellogg Foundation to develop a Community Health Advocacy Program (CHAP). This $285,408 grant project will span four (4)years with $52,820 allocated for year 1, $93,884 for year 2, $93,884 for year 3 and$44,820 for the final year. These funds will be used to support 1.5 full-time equivalent, time-limited positions, program operating costs for the Health Department and sub-contracts to JOCCA and OCCHS for liason services. The attached Community Health Advocacy Program(CHAP) Grant Project Ordinance allocates funds for year 1; future allocations will be incorporated into the grant project ordinance as the funds are received in subsequent years. 4. The Board of County Commissioners accepted, on January 19, a grant from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) to provide screening and follow-up services for Orange County women who qualify for the State's Comprehensive Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program. This $24,714 grant will be used by the Health Department to screen at least 191 women in Orange County. The required County match of$8,238 is included in the Health Department's existing budget. In order to provide the services associated with this program, a temporary, time-limited Public Health Nurse I position will be established, and an existing temporary Family Nurse Practitioner position's hours will be increased by 10 hours per week(on a time-limited basis). The attached Breast and Cervical Cancer Grant Project Ordinance allocates funds for this program. RECOMMENDATION: 2 The Manager recommends that the Board of Commissioners: 1.
