The July 1974 "Report of the Human Services Commission on Revenue Sharil1g
for Social Services" (page 7) contained certain recommendations concerning
contracts with social service agencies.
This subcommittee's investigation has uncovered the need for certain stricter
controls over these funds. Therefore, where our recommendations do not
coincide with the July 29, 1974 "Report" the following shall prevail:
1) City funds shall be kept in a separate account by the recipient
agency.
2) Federal or State Guidelines shall be required prior to approval
wheEeve, City funds are to be used as a local matching share.
3) The rt2::18.ll Services Director and City Finance Officer shall be
respc",3ible for assuring accuracy and legitimacy of social service
contra-:: ;:,udget figures prior to approval by Mayor and Council.

to when, for what purposes. These shall be reviewed quarterly
by HUD2rl Services Department and Finance Officer. A copy of
the mo:",thly bank statement shall be attached.

be compared quarterly by the Human Services Department and th~ '
City Finance Officer.

funded c:-;anization.
2) No City employee in a position to influence social service recommenda-
tions :;:2i2.Y serve on the board of any organization or in any official
capacity for an organization funded directly or indirectly by the City

to the County Council of Community Services for administrative overhead and

by the Mayor and Council.

area legislators, congressmen, and supervisors as well as those government
agencies funding the County Council of Community Services.
