Interlocal Cooperation Agreement Amendment with Capital Area Council of Governments (CAPCOG) for Congregate Meal Service Parks and Recreation Board Meeting June 24, 2020 Interlocal Agreement • To enter into an interlocal agreement, both CAPCOG and the City of Austin must ensure they are carrying out a governmental function that each is authorized to perform under the applicable statutes of the State of Texas. • Each governing body must approve the negotiation and execution of the agreement. 2 Background City of Austin recognizes the importance of providing healthy nutritional meals for ages 60 and older. • On April 1, 2011, PARD transitioned from the direct management of the program and CAPCOG assumed program management. • The transition of direct management of the program from PARD to CAPCOG supported a reduction in operating expenditures and redirected available resources to accomplishing PARD’s core services. • In 2013, the contract was amended to address a gap in funding, as well as adding meal service two days per week at the Dove Springs Recreation Center. • Current contract expends $292,500 annually for meals at seven sites. 3 Fiscal Year 2021 Amendment Will provide $367,133.50 in annual funding at program year end to CAPCOG to manage the congregate meal program at the following 10 sites: • Alamo Recreation Center • Asian American Resource Center • Conley Guerrero Senior Activity Center • Dove Springs Recreation Center • Gus Garcia Recreation Center • Metz Recreation Center • South Austin Senior Activity Center • South Austin Neighborhood Center (APH site) • Turner Roberts Recreation Center • Virginia L. Brown Recreation Center 4 Fiscal Year 2021 Amendment In response to Committee, Board, and Council actions, PARD will execute an amendment that includes the following: • Increase funding by $10,601.68 annually to address the 5% cost increase to provide the congregate meal service at existing sites. • Increase funding by $7,754.88 for the addition of three service days at Dove Springs Recreation Center. • Increase funding by $56,276.94 for the addition of Turner Roberts Recreation Center and the Asian American Resource Center to CAPCOG congregate meal service program. • Establish $367,133.50 as the City’s annual payment to CAPCOG. • Require monthly invoicing by CAPCOG. Per Concessions and Contracts Committee request, PARD will also seek opportunities to draw additional funding for the congregate meal program. Any new funding, derived from PARD’s additional efforts that can be appropriated to this effort, will become available without further action from City Council. 5 Requested Board Action Make a recommendation to the Austin City Council to authorize the negotiation and execution of an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement Amendment between the City of Austin and Capital Area Council of Governments for the direct management of the congregate meal service offered at nine PARD sites and one Austin Public Health site. 6 Questions/Comments?
