Title
Resolution to Approve FY 16 Allocations to Non-Profit Entities for Human Services - $1,246,329.00 (General Fund)
Memorandum
Attached for your consideration is a resolution to approve FY 16 General Fund allocations to non-profit entities for human services, totaling $1,244,629.00 in grants, with a $1,700.00 human services contingency fund to assist funded entities in meeting living wage requirements.  
 
On May 19, 2014, through resolution #14-0702, City Council approved FY 15 allocations to non-profit entities for human services, totaling $1,244,629.00. The City's FY 15 allocations represent the first year of a two-year commitment to Program Operations funding, contingent on the FY 16 budget.
 
On November 7, 2013, through resolution #13-1164, City Council approved a continuation of the coordinated funding process for human services funding in partnership with the Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation, the United Way of Washtenaw County, Washtenaw County, the Washtenaw Urban County, and the RNR Foundation.  This coordinated funding process includes a Coordination/Planning funding process (United Way, Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation, and RNR Foundation funding), a Capacity Building funding process (United Way, Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation, and RNR Foundation funding), and a Program Operations funding process (City, County, Urban County, United Way, and Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation funding) in which each process is informed by the others and funders collaborate to ensure efficient and effective investment of both public and private human services funding.  The final approval of funding recommended in each of these processes, however, remains under the authority of each partner's board.
 
Based on the Coordinated Funding model approved by City Council on November 7, 2013 and FY 15 allocations approved by City Council on May 19, 2014, Coordinated Funding staff is recommending that a total of $4,321,494.00 be allocated to fifty-seven programs (55 awarded competitively and 2 awarded through sole-source) in the following manner:
 
Funding Source      FY 16 Amount
City of Ann Arbor General Fund       $1,244,629.00
City of Ann Arbor LWO Contingency Fund      $1,700.00
United Way of Washtenaw County      $1,760,708.00
