Applications were submitted for Fiscal <br />Year (FY) 2015 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program and were officially awarded. The grants are <br />divided into two categories: Supportive Housing Program Grants (HMIS) and Continuum of <br />Care (formerly Shelter Plus Care) Program. The grants are administered by the Treasure Coast <br />Homeless Services Council, Inc. ("TCHSC") in cooperation with the Human Services Division <br />of the State Health Department and Indian River County. <br />In the past, the County has advanced payment requests to the TCHSC upon receipt of a letter <br />from HUD acknowledging the grants and prior to receipt of the actual grant renewal agreements. <br />Last year, the Board of County Commission approved the reimbursement of funds advanced by <br />the TCHSC following receipt of the award letters but prior to receipt of the renewal agreements. <br />This year the TCHSC has agreed to withhold any reimbursement request until the grant renewals <br />are received from the Jacksonville Office. <br />There is no longer a requirement for the execution of the entire grant agreement as has been the <br />case in the past. There is only the "scope of work" which will contain relevant project <br />information as outlined in Exhibit #C. <br />F:1Awistant County AdministratoAAGENDA rrEMS12016WC 07 JULY 20161BCCMemo-14UD Grant Renmals.doc <br />Page 11 <br />62 <br />P125 <br />
