Explanation

BACKGROUND: The Columbus Health Department has maintained a revenue contract with the Franklin County Children Services (FCCS) Family Ties Program for over a decade. The Maternal and Child Health Division of the Columbus Health Department desires to continue this relationship and their efforts to prevent child abuse and neglect. This ordinance authorizes a contract modification and appropriation for $70,000 for the period ending March 31, 2010.

In 2008 the terms of the revenue contract were revised such that Columbus Health Department services are now targeted only to Franklin County Children Services referrals. To that end this funding source is now being treated as a grant and additional appropriation in the amount of $70,000 is necessary.

Emergency action is requested to avoid delays in the receipt of funds from Franklin County Children Services for home visiting services provided by the Columbus Health Department.

FISCAL IMPACT: Under this contract Franklin County Children Services will purchase home visiting services in an amount not to exceed $70,000.00 in 2009 and $135,000 for the period ending March 31, 2010. Monies received from these contracts will be deposited into the Health Department Grants Fund, Fund 251.
