Purchase of Services Application
Aggie presented the Purchase of Service Grant review Subcommittee's ranking summary
for the eligible Purchase of Services grant funding applications along with various funding
scenarios. Three applications did not receive ranking since the City Council agree to fund
these agencies for three years beginning in FY13: Four Mounds HEART program for
$5000, Matter (formerly Dubuque Art Center) for $15,000 and Opening Doors for $15,000.
In addition, the subcommittee determined that an application for equipment from the
Dubuque Rescue Mission and an application from Helping Services for NE Iowa for
strategic planning were not eligible.
The Commission proposed funding for nine programs based on the highest ranked
purchase of service grant applications. In order to fund as many agencies as possible, the
Commission proposed that Project Concern's Foster Grandparent Program ($6,113), the
Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) ($7,500) and Bell Tower Productions'

Youth Theater Program ($6,345) be funded at their requested levels due to their size and
the six other programs be funded at either forty percent (40 %) or fifty percent (50 %) of
their requests depending on the amount of funding available in FY14 for purchase of
services. This would result in a total funding level of $108,582 at 40% (Recommendation
A) or $121,988 at 50% (Recommendation B). Funding for the agencies is summarized
