BACKGROUND: Okaloosa County entered into Contract C11-1864-GM with Meridian Community Services to provide administrative services for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) through which certain roads in Sylvania Heights have been repaved following a water line project. Because the intention was that the contract would run concurrent with the grant, it was not noticed until grant closeout preparations that the contract had expired on June 30, 2012. The work is complete, and the extension will not result in any charges to Okaloosa County. No County funds have been used in this repaving project which has been 100% funded with CDBG dollars. RECOMMENDATIONS: County staff recommends that Contract C11-1864-GM be extended until December 3, 2012. RECOMMENDED BY: Packet Pg. 88  7.9 APPROVED BY: James D.

The building is owned by the state of Florida, and is currently in year 30 of a 100 year lease to OCSO for law enforcement use. The email also states that OCSO would like to purchase a boat for river rescue operations. The approximate cost ofthe boat is $6,800. The policies governing the use of equitably shared funds are outlined in the Guide to Equitable Sharingfor State and Local Law EnfoNCement Agencies(Apri12009)(Guide). In addition to the limitations and conditions outlined within the Guide, all goods and services acquired with federal sharing funds must be in accordance with OCSO's procurement requirements, with any title held accordingly. All federal sharing funds must be used prudently, which means in an ordinary, necessary, and reasonable manner consistent with the principle that public costs should be controlled or reduced wherever possible. The Guide, Section VIII.A.I.c, permits agencies to use equitably shared funds to expand or improve law enforcement facilities used or managed by OCSO. Because there are 70 years remaining on the current lease, the use of approximately $60,000 to improve the Crestview, FL law enforcement facility is a permissible use of equitably shared funds within a reasonable range of the
