WHEREAS, by Resolution 18728, dated February 9, 2015, the Legislature did authorize the execution of Cooperative Agreements with Rose Brooks Domestic Violence Shelter in the amount of $23,700.00 and with Arts Tech in the amount of $38,300.00, to provide anti-violent crime programs and activities funded by the Anti-Drug Sales Tax Fund; and,
WHEREAS, Rose Brooks Shelter has requested that its award for anti-violent crime programming be reduced to $4,397.00 for 2015 for the reason that it is concluding its Green Dot Bystander Intervention program this semester and can only utilize that portion of its allocation; and,
WHEREAS, Arts Tech has submitted a request to COMBAT staff to expand its Anti-Violence Special Initiative program to allow the agency to reach out to additional youth that are at risk for gang-related activities; and,
WHEREAS, this additional funding allocation for Arts Tech will allow it to increase the number of at-risk youths in its programming from 55 to 100 juveniles; and,
WHEREAS, as a result of the requested changes, Rose Brook Shelter's Agreement will be modified to reduce its funding by $19,303.00 and Art Tech's Agreement will be modified to increase its funding by $18,000.00, to cover the additional costs incurred; and,
WHEREAS, Addenda to the Cooperative Agreements with each agency is a suitable mechanism to memorialize the budget modifications; now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the County Legislature of Jackson County, Missouri, that the County Executive be and hereby is authorized to execute Addenda to the Cooperative Agreements with the Rose Brook Shelter and Arts Tech, at no additional cost to the County, in a form to be approved by the County Counselor; and,
