According to state rules and regulations as well as the county's requirements, SHIP <br />funds may also be used to supplement or match other state and federal funds. <br />For the current fiscal year, Indian River County has been allocated $997,562.00 in SHIP funds. Of <br />this amount, $550,000.00 has been set aside by the Board for clients of three groups. These groups <br />are Habitat for Humanity ($300,000), Straka & Associates (HOME Program, $150,000) and the <br />Indian River County Homeless Service Council ($ 100,000). <br />OCTOBER 23, 2001 �}1s <br />2 0 1 7 <br />[JIB 1 <br />-84- <br />
