Explanation

Background:
This ordinance will enable the Director of Recreation and Parks to accept a grant from and enter into an agreement with the Franklin County Board of Commissioners (dba: Franklin County Senior Options) for funding to support the 2006 50+ Fitness program, and provide for the appropriation of said funds to the Recreation and Parks Grant Fund.

Grant funding will be used to continue the 50+ Fitness programs at the various Multigenerational Adult Program (MAP) Centers by providing funds for services, supplies, and new equipment for health and fitness programs during 2006.

The grant is for $10,805 and a match of $1,060.00 is required from the Recreation and Parks Department. The match will be made up from the Fitness 55 Special Purpose Account.

Previous expenditures were 2005, $10,995 (Ord. No. 0113-2005), 2004, $8,856 (Ord. No. 0287-2004); and, 2003, $10,184 (Ord. No. 2027-2003).

Emergency legislation is required so the agreement can be in place on a timely basis and payment can be made immediately.


Fiscal Impact:
$10,805.00 in grant funding will be used exclusively to provide fitness programs to senior citizens.

The fiscal impact of this ordinance will be to reduce the Recreation and Parks Grant Fund's unappropriated balance by $10,805.00.
