RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
RATIFYING THE ACCEPTANCE OF $18,000 GRANT FROM THE
LIBRARY LITERACY SERVICES TO FUND THE LIBRARY'S LITERACY
SERVICES FOR FISCAL YEAR 2015-16; AND AUTHORIZING
THE ESTABLISHMENT OF FUND APPROPRIATIONS
AND A CORRESPONDING REVENUE BUDGET
WHEREAS, the CLLS grant is designed to support library literacy services
to English-speaking adults who seek to improve their reading and writing skills; and
WHEREAS, in July, the National City Public Library was awarded and
accepted grant funds in the amount of $18,000 from California Library Literacy Services
("CLLS") for funding the Library's literacy services; and
WHEREAS, to determine the amount of funding for libraries that provide
literacy services to their communities, the California State Library uses a funding formula
consisting of the following three parts: (1) a baseline amount to provide a minimum level
of local literacy staffing and services, (2) aper capita amount per adult learner served in
the previous year, (3) a match on local funds earmarked for adult literacy services; and
WHEREAS, the local match was provided by a CDBG grant awarded to the
National City Public Library by the City Council on March 17, 2015 in the amount of
$44,196 to defray the personnel costs of the Coordinator position overseeing literacy
services; and
WHEREAS, the CLLS grant is provided to the Library in two payments each
year; the first payment of $18,000 is the baseline amount, and the second payment is
determined by applying the other two parts of the formula (per capita and match) once the
final report on the previous fiscal year is submitted to the State Library by the August 15
deadline.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
National City hereby ratifies the acceptance of $18,000 in grant funds from California
Library Literacy Services for funding the Library's literacy services.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council hereby authorizes an
appropriation in the amount of $18,000 and a corresponding revenue budget for the grant
funds from California Library Literacy Services for funding the Library's literacy services
