FISCAL IMPACT: (CONT'D)

State Agreement CSPP 7050, Amend 2 / CCC Agreement 39-908-23a

BACKGROUND:

The California Department of Education (CDE) notified the Department on June 22, 2018 of the 2017-18 funding allocation of the California State Preschool program services. The County receives funds from the California Department of Education to provide state preschool services to program eligible County residents. The program is operated by the Employment and Human Services Department, Community Services Bureau. The Board approved receipt of funds on June 13, 2017 (Item C.29).

The State routinely adds funds to the contract as more funding becomes available and school calendars are finalized. The Board approved an amendment to the contract on October 24, 2017 (Item C.42) to increase the daily reimbursement rate from $40.45 per child day of enrollment to $45.73.

This amendment is to decrease the payment limit by $500,000. The Bureau does not believe that it will fully earn the CSPP contract as enrollment has been low due to lack of teaching staff and partner agencies. The $500,000 reduction is a temporary release and transfer of funds to other agencies in California who have over earned their contracts. It will not affect the full funding of the County's 2018-19 contract with CDE.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, County will not receive funding to operate these childcare programs.
