RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF NATIONAL CITY RATIFYING THE ACCEPTANCE
OF AN AUGMENTATION TO THE CALIFORNIA LIBRARY LITERACY SERVICES (CLLS)
GRANT IN THE AMOUNT OF $28,880 FOR THE NATIONAL CITY LIBRARY'S FISCAL YEAR
2019-2020 LITERACY PROGRAM, INCREASING THE TOTAL GRANT AMOUNT FROM
$18,000 TO $46,880; AND AUTHORIZING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF LIBRARY GRANTS
FUND APPROPRIATIONS AND A CORRESPONDING REVENUE BUDGET
WHEREAS, since 1980, the California Library Literacy Services ("CLLS") Grant is
designed to support the Library's Literacy Services Program to English-speaking adults who seek
to improve their reading, writing, and math skills; 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 of $18,000 to provide a minimum level of local literacy staffing and
services; and
2. A per capita amount per adult learner served in the previous year 2018-2019; and
3. A match of local funds earmarked for adult literacy services that is provided by a
Community Development Block Grant awarded to the Library by the City Council on May
7, 2019 in the amount of $50,610 to defray the personnel costs of the Literacy Coordinator
who oversees the operation of the literacy program.
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.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of National City hereby ratifies the acceptance of grants funds in the amount of $28,880 from
the California Library Literacy Services to fund the National City Public Library's Literacy
Services Program for Fiscal Year 2019 — 2020 increasing the total grant amount from $18,000
to $46,880 and authorizes the establishment of Library Grants Fund appropriations and a
corresponding revenue budget.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council authorizes the establishment of
an appropriation and corresponding revenue budget.
