CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUISST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Staff Report Subiect: Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino authorizing the Mayor or her designee to execute Amendment No. 15 to the Agreement between the City and Casa Ramona, Inc to operate a drop-in center located at 1524 West 7th Street, San Bernardino, California for an additional year. Backe:round: The Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department has contracted with Casa Ramona, Inc. for operation of Ramona Drop-In Center since September 1, 1983. The center offers information and referral services on a variety of citizen needs, as well as assistance in completing forms and making applications for various services and social programs. Other services are provided to the poor, elderly, homeless, unemployed, non-English speaking, new arrivals, and crime victims. City residents are aided directly and non-city residents are referred to appropriate agencies. The Hispanic community continues to grow in San Bernardino and these services benefit a large number of our citizens in much-needed social services. The proposed services include assisting clients with a variety of forms, employment and legal referrals, holiday assistance to needy families and public information/updates. Also included are referrals for daily needs (i.e. housing, food,. clothing and etc.); community meetings, social security assistance, translation services, letter preparation and citizenship information. The complete Casa Ramona proposal of services with a proposed budget of $50,783 is attached to this report. If the City were to provide these services, it would cost an estimated $133,017 to fund a center manager, two administrative clerks, lease fees and supplies. Financial Impact: The Ramona Drop-In Center contract cost has remained the same since the 1990-91 FY with no increase in compensation. The proposed FY 2005/2006 budget for the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Administration Division will include $50,800 for this item.
