In essence, the ordinance creates the contract position and outlines the intent of the Council and contains a sunset provision.

Second Reading is expected on March 25, 2026, and the recruitment will begin soon thereafter with Human Resources taking the lead in recruitment.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 11, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Resolutions TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Phillip Burns, Development Services Director
DATE: February 25, 2026
SUBJECT: Property Abatement Resolution for January 12, 2026 Resolution confirming approval by the City Manager designee of the Code Enforcement Manager’s report regarding assessments of certain properties in the City for which structures have been secured against entry or for the abatement of certain weeds, debris and waste matter and the demolishment of dangerous buildings and authorizing collection of the assessments by the Kern County Tax Collector.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends adoption of resolution.

BACKGROUND:

Assessment hearing was held on January 12, 2026, by the City Manager designee and all proposed charges were confirmed. The subject properties listed in Exhibit A (attached) were in violation of Chapter 8.27 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code which prohibits maintaining open and abandoned dilapidated structures which constitute public nuisances and prohibits maintaining hazardous weeds, debris, and waste matter and/or were determined to be in violation of Chapter 15.24 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code which prohibits maintaining dangerous buildings. The property owners were notified and failed to comply with the notices to abate such public nuisance. After a hearing duly noticed and held before the Building Director, the Director issued orders requiring the property owner to abate the public nuisance. The subject properties are listed in Exhibit A.

The owners of the listed properties failed to commence the required work as ordered by the Building Director to abate a public nuisance. As permitted under Chapter 8.80 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code, the public nuisances listed in Exhibit A were abated under the direction of the Code Enforcement Manager. The costs incurred by the City can be assessed against the property as provided for in Chapter

8.80 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code. Property owners had been given notice of their right to appear at the hearing on this matter before the City Manager designee and to object to the correctness of the costs incurred by the City to remove the public nuisance. The City Manager designee has approved the assessments associated with the properties.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 11, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Resolution TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Greg Terry, Chief of Police
DATE: February 19, 2026
SUBJECT: Resolution to Dispense with Bidding for Hornady Ammunition with MiWall Corporation Resolution determining that Hornady Law Enforcement/Military Ammunition for exclusive use by Bakersfield Police Department, cannot be reasonably obtained through the usual bidding procedures and authorizing the Finance Director to dispense with bidding at not to exceed amount of $130,000.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommend adoption of the resolution and approval of the purchase.

BACKGROUND: Hornady Law Enforcement/Military Ammunition, the manufacturer, has designated the only authorized Sole source law enforcement distributor for the State of California to be MiWall Corporation, therefore, staff is recommending adoption of the Resolution to dispense with bidding for Law Enforcement/Military Ammunition and authorizing the purchase of said product from the sole supplier, MiWall Corporation on a continuing basis in amounts to meet the Police Department’s requirements.

The Bakersfield Police Department has standardized on Hornady Law Enforcement/Military ammunition needs. Hornady Law Enforcement/Military Ammunition is the standard product used by most law enforcement agencies. The Police Department desires to purchase products in larger quantities to maintain stock due to supply chain shortages and longer than normal shipping times.

On April 24, 2024, Council adopted Resolution No. 049-2024 to dispense with bidding procedures for the purchase of Hornady Law Enforcement/Military ammunition from MiWall Corporation in the amount of $130,000 in accordance with subsection D.2 of section 3.20.060 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code.

The Bakersfield Police Department desires to purchase additional Hornady Law Enforcement/Military ammunition in an amount not to exceed $130,000 per fiscal year pursuant to the same sole source Resolution No. 049-2024 previously approved by council.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds are available from a combination of General Fund, Public Safety Vital Services Measure Fund and Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund.

COUNCIL GOAL:

Safety and Resilience

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 11, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Resolutions TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Randy McKeegan, Finance Director
DATE: February 25, 2026
SUBJECT: Dispense with bidding for the purchase of electronic vehicle (EV) vans for various Departments.

1. Resolution determining that electronic vehicle (EV) vans can most efficiently be obtained through cooperative procurement bidding procedures from Rush Truck Center and authorizing the Finance Director to dispense with bidding for the purchase of five (5) units in the amount of $301,353 for the Recreation and Parks Department, the Police Department, and the General Services Division within the Public Works Department.

2. Appropriate $26,353 Equipment Management Fund balance to the Public Works Operating budget within the Equipment Management Fund to complete the purchase.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommend adoption of the resolution and approval of appropriation to complete the purchase.

BACKGROUND:

The purchase of five EV (5) vans for the Recreation and Parks Department, the Police Department, and the General Services Division within the Public Works Department will replace existing vehicles that are worn, unreliable, and more than 20 years old. The vehicles meet the Fleet Staff’s criteria for replacement and will be replaced with new electric vehicles offering greater efficiency and improved performance.

The City municipal code section 3.20.060(D)(6) allows the City to dispense with bidding when it is determined that the equipment is not available from local vendors and that it is in the best interests of the City, and to the City’s economic advantage that such equipment be obtained at the lowest possible cost by entering into a cooperative procurement contract that was competitively bid within the last thirtysix months or is one that is still active and valid.

Rush Truck Center has entered into a competitive procurement contract with Sourcewell to offer discount pricing for their equipment. Staff recommend adoption of the Resolution to dispense with bidding for the purchase of five (5) EV vans in the amount of $301,353 for the Recreation and Parks Department, the Police Department, and the General Services Division within the Public Works Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds in the amount of $275,000 were previously budgeted in the Equipment Management Fund for this purchase. An appropriation in the amount of $26,353 Equipment Management Fund balance to the Public Works Operating budget will be necessary to complete the purchase.

The ACF Regulation (California Code of Regulations, Title 13, Sections 2013, 2013.1, 2013.2, 2013.3, 2013.4, and 2016) mandates the transition of internal combustion vehicles to zero emission vehicles.

For vehicles that are underfunded in the general fund, the shortfall will be recovered over the vehicle life cycle through the rate. For non-general fund vehicles, the shortfall will be appropriated at the time of award.

COUNCIL GOAL:

Innovative and Efficient City Government

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 11, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Resolutions TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Phillip Burns, Development Services Director
DATE: February 18, 2026
SUBJECT: Resolution of Intention No. 2255 to add Area 4-322 (304 Cypress Avenue) to the Consolidated Maintenance District
and preliminarily approving, confirming, and adopting the Development Services Director’s Report:

Street Tier = 0.5; Park Tier = 1 – (Ward 2)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends adopting the resolution of intention.

BACKGROUND:

Written requests have been received by the City Engineer from the owner of the parcel to be included in the Consolidated Maintenance District as required by section 13.04.021 of the Municipal Code. Inclusion in the Consolidated Maintenance District will provide for the maintenance of parks and/or street landscaping. For an area where a park has been constructed and/or street landscaping has already been installed, the area will be under the park and streetscape zones of benefit and will be assigned appropriate tier levels during the next annual update to the consolidated maintenance district. For an area where a park and/or street landscaping has not been installed, the area will be assigned appropriate tier levels when improvements are constructed.

The City of Bakersfield has received a letter from the owner of the property listed above which waived the public hearing concerning inclusion in the Consolidated Maintenance District. This allows the City to expedite the maintenance district process to satisfy subdivision requirements. The owner has also submitted a Proposition 218 ballot indicating their consent to the assessments.

To provide future property owners with disclosure regarding the inclusion of land in the Consolidated Maintenance District and the estimated maximum annual cost per equivalent dwelling unit, a covenant has been drafted and will be recorded with the Kern County Assessor‐Recorder's Office upon approval of this Resolution.

Staff recommend the new territory be added to the Consolidated Maintenance District at the next City Council meeting.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The revenue from Maintenance Assessment Districts partially supports ongoing maintenance in the districts for the year. There is some General Fund support on an annual basis for the short fall in the CMD revenue collected citywide.

DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR'S REPORT
ADDITION OF TERRITORY, AREA 4-322
Fiscal Year 2025-2026
Addition of territory to the Consolidated Maintenance District, as shown in Exhibit "A" is described as 304 Cypress Avenue and as shown on Map and Assessment Diagram marked Exhibit "B," attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth, as an area within the City of Bakersfield.

Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.04 of Title 13 of the Municipal Code of the City of Bakersfield, referred to as the Maintenance District Procedure, the Development Services Director makes and files this report and proposed assessment of and upon all parcels of property within the area for the cost of maintaining a public park and public street medians and other public street landscaping. The improvements generally include, but are not limited to, recreation and sports equipment including swings, slides, play structures and storage buildings; picnic facilities including tables, benches, barbecues, trash cans, drinking fountains and restrooms; irrigation system including water mains, sprinklers, fountains, and electrical wires, conduits and timers; plant forms including trees, shrubs, ground cover and turf; and sidewalks and walkways within parks now existing or hereafter to be constructed or planted in and for said area and are of a public nature. The assessment includes the cost of necessary repairs, replacement, water, electricity, care, supervision and all other items necessary for the proper maintenance and operation thereof, and all additions and improvements thereto which may hereafter be made.

For many years, public parks, public hardscaped and/or landscaped street median and other public street landscaping improvements in the City were maintained through traditional tax revenues. After Proposition 13, in 1978, funds available for maintenance and operation of parks, hardscaping and/or landscaping street median and other street landscaping improvements were substantially reduced. At present, the City's budget does not allow for maintenance and operation of park and street landscaping improvements of the type described above. Thus, without funds for maintenance and operating costs from a source other than general tax revenues, the City does not permit new public parks, hardscaping and/or landscaping street median and other street landscaping improvements to be constructed within the City.

Additional territory, as shown in Exhibit "B" is being added to the Consolidated Maintenance District for the maintenance of a park and public hardscaping and/or landscaping street median and other street landscaping. The area will be assigned appropriate park and street tiers in the Consolidated Maintenance District so that each parcel will be assessed the same amount as other parcels receiving a similar benefit.

All parcels within this area shall be assessed an amount not to exceed that established in Resolution No. 019-05 per equivalent dwelling unit (as that term is defined in Exhibit “C”) per parcel. In each subsequent year, annual assessments may increase by the cost of living reflected in the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim/All Urban Consumers Consumer Price EXHIBIT 1
Index. However, parcels will not be assessed until park and/or street landscaping and/or hardscaping median improvements have been installed. When park and/or street landscape and/or hard-scaping median improvements have been completed, the appropriate park and street tier levels will be assigned, but in no case shall the assessments exceed the amount established in Resolution No. 019-05 as escalated by the above-described Consumer Price Index.

All parcels as described in the Benefit Formula on file with the City Clerk within the area will be affected. Sensory benefits from installing street landscaping and/or hardscaping median improvements are aesthetic enhancement and open space enjoyment.

A public park will benefit all the residential lots and public median, and street landscaping will benefit all the lots or parcels and will be assessed on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis throughout the area. The Benefit Formula is set forth herein as Exhibit "C" and attached hereto and incorporated in this resolution as though fully set forth herein.

NOW THEREFORE, I, PHILLIP BURNS, Development Services Director, by virtue of the power vested in me and the order of the Council of said City, hereby submit the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Budget and Assessment Roll as set forth in Exhibit "D" and Exhibit "E," respectively, attached hereto and incorporated herein as though fully set forth, upon all parcels of property within additional territory subject to be assessed to pay the cost of maintenance and operation in said area.

WELCOME TO THE 2020 BSCC GRANT ADMINISTRATION GUIDE

FOREWORD
The BSCC Grant Administration Guide (Guide) is intended to help Grantees comply with the terms and conditions that apply to all BSCC grant-funded projects. This Guide supersedes the 2016 version.

All BSCC grant-funded projects must comply with the terms of the grant program under which they are funded. Such terms refer to all requirements as defined by the Grant Agreements, applicable program guidelines contained in the Request for Proposals (RFP) and Request for Applications (RFA), applicable state and federal statutes, and other written directives from the BSCC. At any time, the BSCC may modify and/or impose additional conditions not outlined in this guide when deemed appropriate.

If you have any questions regarding the content in this grant guide, please refer to the RFP, grant agreement, or contact your field representative directly.

This Guide can be accessed and downloaded from the BSCC website at www.bscc.ca.gov.

OVERVIEW
The Board of State and Community Corrections
Established in 2012, the California Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) is an independent statutory agency that provides leadership to the adult and juvenile criminal justice systems, expertise on Public Safety Realignment issues, a data and information clearinghouse, and technical assistance on a wide range of community corrections issues. (Cal. Pen. Code §§ 6024- 6025.) In addition, the BSCC promulgates regulations for adult and juvenile detention facilities, conducts regular inspections of those facilities, develops standards for the selection and training of local corrections and probation officers, and administers significant public safety-related grant funding.

Policy for the agency is set by the 13-member Board of State and Community Corrections, whose members are prescribed by statute, appointed by the Governor and the Legislature, and subject to approval by the state Senate. The Board Chair reports directly to the Governor.

Corrections Planning and Grant Programs Division
The Corrections Planning and Grant Programs (CPGP) Division develops, administers and evaluates programs designed to improve the effectiveness of state and local government agencies, as well as the private sector and nonprofit service providers, to foster collaborative approaches for addressing crime and delinquency by fair and equitable approaches. Division staff provides extensive technical assistance and training to state and local agencies as well as grantees.

We are happy to respond to any questions not covered by this Guide and we welcome any suggestion to improve the Guide. Please feel free to contact your designated Field Representative.

1. GENERAL
A. GRANT AGREEMENT
The Grant Agreement, also referred to as the contract, is the signed final agreement between the BSCC and the local government agency or organization authorized to accept grant funding. The Grant Agreement and its components contain all the terms, conditions and requirements of the grant program.

Grant Agreements are fully executed only when signed by both the Grantee and the BSCC Director or designee. The start date as listed on the face page of the contract. Grant project expenses incurred after the start date of the grant cycle but before the execution date of the contract may not be reimbursed.

B. COMPONENTS OF THE CONTRACT
It is the Grantee’s responsibility to read and comply with all the terms, conditions and requirements set forth in the contract. The components of the contract are:
• Standard Agreement (Std. 213), the face page of the contract; • All appropriate exhibits as listed on the face page of the contract; • Grantee’s application or proposal;
• Governing Board Resolution; and
• Applicable conditions and requirements of the RFA/RFP.

C. GRANT AWARD CONDITIONS

1. General Responsibilities
The Grant Award is a legal transfer of funds between the BSCC and a Grantee for a specific project. Projects must conform to the Grant Agreement as specified, as well as the provisions of this Guide. Failure to do so may result in the withholding or disallowance of grant payments on current or future BSCC grants, the reduction or termination of the Grant Award, and/or the denial of future Grant Awards. The terms of the Grant Agreement supersede the provisions in this Guide.

If the Grant Award includes Federal funds, the Grantee must also comply with all applicable Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Code of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA), and other applicable federal guidance.

2. Responsible Agency
The Grantee, as named on the face page of the Grant Agreement, is the agency responsible for the implementation and administration of the Grant Project (Project) and for providing all matching funds as specified in the grant budget. The Grantee may not transfer or assign the Grant Agreement to another agency or party. Additionally, the Grantee shall ensure that all subcontractors comply with the requirements of the Grant Agreement. Any liability arising shall be the responsibility of the Grantee. The State of California and BSCC disclaim responsibility for any such liability.

3. Terms of the Program
The terms of the program are defined by the Grant Agreement and applicable RFP and/or RFA. These key documents must be accessible by the project on-site. Grantees must adhere to these requirements, including its enabling legislation, funding regulations, service standards, and program guidelines. Failure to do so may result in the withholding or disallowance of grant payments on current or future BSCC grants and/or a reduction in funding or termination of the Grant Award and/or the denial of future funding.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 4 July 2020
In the event the terms of the program are inconsistent with the provisions of this Guide, the terms of the program supersede the provisions of this Guide.

4. Proof of Authority
All Grantees, except for State Agencies, are required to obtain written authorization from its governing board that the Official or Authorized Officer executing the agreement is, in fact, authorized to do so. The written authorization may be a Resolution, Board Minutes, or a letter from the Board Chair. This written authorization shall extend the Official’s authority over the execution of any amendments or extensions. Grantees must maintain this written authorization on file and make it available upon demand. It is best to use the Official’s title rather than the person’s name to avoid having to seek further authorization from the governing agency if the person named is transferred or leaves an agency/organization.

5. Grant Award Changes
Changes made to the Grant Award during the grant cycle must be requested, documented and approved in accordance with the procedures described in Section 14 of this Guide. Oral agreements are not binding.

6. Supplanting Prohibited
Supplanting is strictly prohibited for all BSCC grant funds. a) Definition
Supplanting is the deliberate reduction in the amount of federal, state, or local funds being appropriated to an existing program or activity because grant funds have been awarded for the same purposes. When the Grantee replaces funds in this manner, it reduces the total amount that would have been available for the stated grant purpose. b) Grantee’s Responsibility
BSCC grant funds shall be used to support new program activities or to augment existing funds that expand current program activities. BSCC grant funds shall not be used to replace existing funds.

It is the responsibility of the Grantee to ensure that supplanting does not occur. The Grantee must keep clear and detailed financial records to show that grant funds are used only for allowable costs and activities.

7. Funds Availability
Allocation of funds is contingent on the enactment of the State Budget. The BSCC does not have the authority to disburse any funds until the budget is passed. Any expenditure incurred prior to authorization is made at the Grantee’s own risk and may be disallowed.

If, during the term of the Grant Agreement, the state and/or federal funds appropriated for the purposes of the grant program are reduced or eliminated by the California Legislature or by the United States Government, or in the event revenues are not collected at the level appropriated, the BSCC may immediately terminate or reduce the grant award upon written notice to the Grantee. No such termination or reduction shall apply to allowable costs already incurred by the Project to the extent that state or federal funds are available for payment of such costs.

The Grant Agreement entered into with BSCC is subject to any applicable restrictions, limitations, or conditions enacted by the California Legislature and/or the United States Government subsequent to execution of the contract.

2. GRANT PROJECT BUDGETS
Projects are required to prepare a realistic and prudent budget that avoids unnecessary or unusual expenditures that detract from the accomplishment of the objectives and activities. Grant project budgets are limited to the funding categories and line-items identified in the Project Budget table listed in Exhibit B: Budget Detail and Payment Provisions of the Grant Agreement.

Funding categories generally fall under the following broad budget areas:
• Personal Services – Salaries and Benefits
• Operating Expenses; and
• Equipment.

Each line-item listed in Project Budget table in Exhibit B of the Grant Agreement must be substantiated with line-item detail, including calculations, and a justification for the expense.

Explanatory information included in the budget narrative does not eliminate the line-item detail requirements.

1) EEOP Compliance Requirements
Grantees with 50 or more employees receiving $25,000 or more in federal funds must have a current EEOP on file in their office for possible audit by BSCC or the Office of Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice. Grantees Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 11 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
required to develop an EEOP can only claim an exemption from the submission requirement if they have not received a single award of $500,000 or more.

To claim the exemption, the Grantee must complete the Office of Civil Rights (OCR), Certification Form, Section B (http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/about/ocr/pdfs/cert.pdf) and send it to OCR and BSCC by fax e/mail. If the Grantee does not have a current EEOP on file, they must develop and implement one within 60 calendar days of the date that the BSCC Director signed the Grant Award Face Sheet. The signed certification will be placed on record in the BSCC grant file.
2) Federal Funds of $500,000 and Above
Grantees with 50 or more employees receiving a single grant of $500,000 or more in federal funds are required to submit an EEOP Short Form to the Office of Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice for approval and to receive the federal letter of compliance. An approved EEOP from OCR is valid for 24 months from the date of the OCR compliance letter. If the EEOP or federal letter of compliance is not included in the proposal/application, a Grant Award condition will be placed on the grant allowing 60 days for submission of the EEOP. 3) Grantees Exempt from EEOP Requirements
To claim an exemption from the EEOP requirement pursuant to 28 CFR Part 42, Subpart E. Executive orders 11246 and 11375, ANY of the following criteria must be met:
• The Grantee is a nonprofit organization, a medical or educational institution, or an Indian Tribe; OR
• The Grantee has less than 50 employees; OR
• The Grantee received a single award for less than $25,000 To file an exemption you must complete the Office of Civil Rights (OCR), Certification Form, Section A, http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/about/ocr/pdfs/cert.pdf, and send it to the OCR and BSCC by fax or e/mail:

4) Requirements for Continuing EEOP Grants
Grantees who have previously received federal grants of $25,000 or more, and meet the criteria, are required to maintain a current EEOP on file in their office. Grantees who have previously received a single award in the amount of $500,000 or more, with 50 or more employees, are required to submit an update of their EEOP if funds are continued. The updated EEOP is due within 24 months of the BSCC or OCR compliance letter. All Grantees, regardless of the type of entity, the number of Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 12 July 2020
employees, or the amount awarded, are subject to the prohibitions against discrimination in any program or activity and may be required by the BSCC or OCR, through selected compliance reviews, to submit data to ensure their services are delivered in an equitable manner to all segments of the service population.

Additionally, Grantees may be required to submit data to ensure their employment practices comply with state and federal civil rights laws. The passage of Proposition 209 (approved November 1, 1996) has not alleviated the Federal requirement to develop and implement an EEOP (Cal. Const. art. I, § 31.)

5. Suspension and Debarment – Federal Grants
It is the policy of the Federal Government to conduct business only with responsible persons, and a system for debarment and suspension from programs and activities involving Federal financial and non-financial assistance and benefits assist agencies in carrying out this policy.

Debarment or suspension of a participant by one agency has government-wide effect.

Grantees receiving federal funds must certify that they will adhere to Federal Executive Order 12549, Debarment and Suspension. By signing the Grant Agreement, the grantee certifies that neither the grantee nor its principals have been suspended or debarred from participation in Federal grants. The grantee also agrees that it will not make any award, sub-award, or enter into any contract greater than $25,000 with parties that are debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded or ineligible for participation in Federal programs or activities.

6. Verification of Vendor/Contractor Eligibility - Federal Grants Prior to entering into contracts or procurements greater than $25,000, Grantees must either obtain a self-certification statement from the vendor/contractor indicating they or their principals are not suspended or debarred, or verify their eligibility to participate in federal awards via the federal Excluded Parties List System (EPLS). a) Self-Certification:

The self-certification statement should contain language certifying that neither the organization nor its principals are presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in the transaction by any Federal department or agency.
b) EPLS Verification:

Verification of eligibility of prospective vendors/contractors may be obtained via the federal System for Award Management (SAM) website at www.sam.gov. It is suggested that a screen shot of the negative results page be kept with the procurement/contract records to support eligibility verification occurred prior to entering into the transaction.

4. ALLOWABLE COSTS FOR PERSONNEL
Allowable costs for personnel must be reasonable and may be used for salaries, wages, and other benefits. It is the Grantees’ responsibility to properly document and support such costs.

A. SALARIES
Salaries are fixed compensation for services performed by employees of the Grantee and are paid on a regular basis. These costs must be identified by position and percentage of salaries and rounded off to the nearest whole dollar. All other salaries are to be shown in the Operating Expenses Category supported by the contract or operational agreement.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 13 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
B. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS AND EMPLOYER PAYROLL TAXES
Employee benefits and employer payroll taxes include employer’s contributions or expenses for social security, employee's life and health insurance plans, unemployment insurance, pension plans, and other similar expenses that are approved by BSCC. These expenses are allowable when they are included in the Grant Award budget and are in accordance with the organization's approved written policies.

C. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS IN THE FORM OF REGULAR COMPENSATION Employee benefits in the form of regular compensation (normal pay) paid to employees during periods of authorized absences from the job for paid leave are allowable if: (1) they are provided pursuant to an approved leave system; (2) the costs are equitably allocated to all related activities (claimed in proportion to the time spent by the employee working on the grant); and (3) the costs adhere to the state limitations noted below:
• Jury duty costs claimed on the project invoice (BSCC Form 201), must be reduced by any jury duty fees received, excluding travel costs; and
• Paid leave (e.g., military leave, medical leave, administrative leave, or workman’s compensation) must not exceed 30 calendar days per twelve-month period.

D. GRANTEE UNABLE TO OBTAIN BENEFITS
When a Grantee is unable to obtain benefits, reimbursement payments to employees for such benefits may be allowed. For example, a Grantee may be unable to obtain health insurance due to the size of the organization. In this situation, reimbursement payment may be allowed.

However, in order to reimburse its employees, a Grantee must be sure to: (1) disclose reimbursement payments in the Grant Award budget; (2) approve of such reimbursements in the Grantee’s written personnel policies; and (3) and document claims with paid invoices submitted by the employees.

E. GRANT EMPLOYEE PLACED ON ADMINISTRATIVE LEAVE
When a grant employee is placed on administrative leave in accordance with the organization's approved written policies, a portion of that employee’s salary paid during the administrative leave may be charged to the Grant as personal services. The portion of the administrative leave costs that may be charged is based on the percentage of that employee’s salary approved in the grant budget.

F. VACATION, SICK LEAVE, AND COMPENSATING TIME OFF (CTO) Salary costs include vacation, sick leave, and CTO earned and used during the grant cycle.

Overtime and shift differentials are also salary costs. All of these costs should be budgeted beforehand and claimed as personal services.

G. OVERTIME
Overtime is defined as time worked beyond the normal established work week for all employees except those considered exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act, such as executive, administrative, and/or professional staff. Overtime is reimbursable at a higher than normal rate of pay.

Overtime must be documented by payroll records that reflect at a minimum:
• The name and title of the person performing the overtime and a supervisor’s prior approval; • The hours worked and the amount of overtime;
• The basis for the overtime and the activities performed during overtime; and • The hourly rate of overtime.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 14 July 2020
H. CHARGING GRANT FUNDS AS LEAVE TIME
With the exception of a separation from the project, BSCC funds may be charged as leave time (vacation, sick, family leave, compensating time off) only when the time is earned and used during the grant funding cycle. Balances accrued during the funding cycle, but not used, cannot be claimed, unless a separation is involved. The leave costs claimed must be proportional to the amount of time spent by the employee working on the BSCC project. For example, if the employee is 50 percent BSCC funded, BSCC will be charged only 50 percent of eight hours of vacation earned, or four hours.

I. CLAIMING UNUSED LEAVE BALANCE FOR AN EMPLOYEE THAT SEPARATES FROM THE PROJECT As cited above, the only exception for claiming unused leave balances is when an employee separates from employment from the project. BSCC funds then may be used to pay the employee separating from the project that portion of the leave balances earned during the BSCC funding cycle. The portion of the leave balances earned during any non-BSCC funded period must be paid by another source. In addition, BSCC funds should pay only for a proportional amount of the leave balances earned during the BSCC funding cycle, based on the percentage of time the employee worked on the BSCC grant. For example, if the separating employee worked 50 percent of the time on the BSCC grant, the BSCC grant should pay only 50 percent of the vacation earned and not used by the employee. If the total hours of vacation earned during the BSCC-funded period and not used was 40, then the total hours that can be claimed against the BSCC grant is 20 hours.

J. PROVISIONS REGARDING ALLOWABLE COMPENSATION FOR PERSONNEL Costs for salaries and benefits of personnel involved in more than one grant or program of the organization must be charged to each grant (or funding source of the program) based on the actual percentage of time spent on each grant or program. The annualized actual percentage charged for a particular position (e.g., Project Director) cannot exceed the annual percentage approved in the BSCC Grant Award. Similarly, the dollar amount charged for a particular position also must not exceed the dollar amount in the approved Grant Award or subsequent grant award modification.

Functional timesheets or a cost allocation plan for projects with more than one source of funding and/or with multiple programs must be maintained which support the time charged to BSCC grants.

Example A
The BSCC Grant Award budget allows 100 percent (100%) of salaries and benefits for the Project Director. During the grant cycle, the agency received grant funds from another funding source for a different grant, which is also administered by the same Project Director. In this situation, the Grantee must account for the actual time the Project Director spends on each of the separate grants. Because the project has more than one grant, the Project Director is obviously no longer spending 100 percent of his/her time on the single BSCC grant. Although the BSCC grant allows the Grantee to charge up to 100 percent (100%) of the Project Director's salary, the Grantee may only charge BSCC the ACTUAL time spent by the Project Director on the BSCC grant. If the actual amount of the time the Project Director spends on the BSCC grant is 25 percent (25%), then only 25 percent (25%) of the budgeted amount can be charged to the BSCC grant and claimed for reimbursement. Salary allocation changes require the submission and prior approval of a grant modification.

Example B
The BSCC Grant Award budgets 20 percent (20%) of salaries and benefits for the Program Specialist. During the grant cycle the actual time spent by the Program Specialist amounts to 50 Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 15 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
percent (50%) of actual hours charged, BSCC can only be charged 20 percent (20%) of the salaries and benefits amount listed in the approved Grant Award for the Program Specialist until such time as a modification is approved. If the Program Specialist had actually spent only ten percent (10%) of his/her time on a single BSCC program, and 20 percent (20%) was what was actually budgeted, BSCC can only be charged ten percent (10%) of the salaries and benefits amount for the Program Specialist. A modification must be submitted for approval of any allocation changes.

K. ADMINISTRATIVE OVERHEAD POSITIONS
Grantees may elect to charge administrative positions as a direct charge to personal services, and/or as part of indirect costs or administrative overhead. The direct method is explained within this section. If the indirect method is chosen, refer to Section 4.N, which describes direct and indirect costs.

L. PERSONNEL CHANGES
Whenever there are budget changes resulting from personnel changes, whether temporary or permanent, the project must submit a modification, and explain the reason for the shifting of personnel, the time period involved, the individuals involved, the salaries paid, and the percentage of time worked. The project also must maintain documentation in the payroll records of the shifting of personnel. During the grant performance period, the Grantee may not add, remove, or change line items to/from the Personal Services/Benefits category without prior BSCC approval. A modification will be necessary to add line items and to increase or decrease the amount of grant funds budgeted to this category. The items added must be allowable expenses programmatically.

The organization’s Cost Allocation Plan may also require revision to reflect budget changes and to bring the allocation of costs in alignment with current expenditures.

M. FEDERAL AND STATE EMPLOYEE
Where the Grantee is a state agency, compensation of federal and state employees, such as salary payments, travel, and consulting fees, is not allowable unless specifically approved by the BSCC in advance.

N. COSTS – DIRECT AND INDIRECT
Indirect cost rates are established in the BSCC Request for Proposal (RFP) and in the grantee’s contract budget. Please contact your lead Field Representative if you have any questions.

Acronyms used in this section:
• BSCC – Board of State and Community Corrections
• CAP – Cost Allocation Plan
• CFR – Code of Federal Regulations
• ICRP – Indirect Cost Rate Proposal
• MTDC – Modified Total Direct Cost
• NICR – Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate
• OMB – U.S. Office of Management and Budget
• RFP – Request for Proposal

1. General Information
Direct Project Costs
Direct project costs are those allowable costs that can be (a) directly associated to a particular grant activity and (b) accounted for separately with a high degree of accuracy. Examples of direct costs include staff salaries, materials and supplies, and travel.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 16 July 2020
Indirect Project Costs
Indirect project costs are shared costs that cannot be directly assigned to a particular activity but are necessary to the operation of the organization and the performance of the project.

Examples of indirect costs include utilities and rent expense, health insurance, equipment depreciation, clerical and managerial salaries, human resources, accounting and legal fees, office and cleaning supplies.

Chargeable Project Costs
Chargeable costs are those costs that may be expensed to an award. In determining chargeable costs, a grantee should consider if the costs are:
• Reasonable – ordinary and necessary, supports the operation, and contributes to ability to conduct grant’s mission.
• Allocable – easily assigned to the grant.
• Allowable – as determined by:
o OMB Guidelines, Uniform Guidance (2 CFR Part II Subpart E – Cost Principles), o State of California, State Administrative Manual, and o Terms and conditions of the RFP, Grant Agreement, and BSCC Grant Administration Guide provisions.
• Consistently treated as either a direct or an indirect cost and are in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

2. Recordkeeping
Grantees agree to maintain and provide access to records for purposes of examination for a period of three (3) years from the end of the Grant Agreement, unless a longer period of record retention is stipulated. This also refers to any subcontractor(s) documentation.

Applicants who apply for BSCC grant funds are required to develop a budget according to the RFP instructions. In RFPs that allow for an indirect cost rate, a line item will be included in the budget template for the applicant to include this information. Once an award is approved by BSCC, the budget becomes the approved grant budget. Grantees agree to maintain all records and supporting documents pertaining to the creation of such budget.

The grantee agrees that the BSCC and any or all of the following agencies shall have the right to review and to copy any records and supporting documentation pertaining to the performance of the Grant Agreement:
• the U.S. Federal Government or their designated representative(s) (if federally funded grant program);
• the California State Auditor or their designated representative(s); • the California Department of Finance – Office of State Audits & Evaluations or their designated representative(s);
• the California State Controller’s Office or their designated representative(s).

3. Claiming Indirect Costs on an Invoice
Prior to submission to the BSCC, grantees are responsible for reviewing and approving invoices to ensure expenditures are proper and in accordance with the terms and conditions of their Grant Agreements and approved budgets.

Grantees that claim indirect costs on an invoice must use the indirect cost rate listed in their executed Grant Agreement. When requesting reimbursement for indirect costs, it is important Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 17 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
to remember that the indirect cost rate is applied to the amount that was actually expended and requested for reimbursement, and not the amount that was originally budgeted.

All costs must be supported by accounting records (e.g., invoices, purchase orders, and canceled checks or other records supporting payments), which show the actual expenses.

4. Federally Funded Grant Programs: Indirect Cost Rates Unless otherwise specified in the grant’s RFP and Grant Agreement, entities directly applying for and receiving federal grant funds may only budget and charge indirect costs by using one of the following indirect cost options:

Federal Indirect Cost Rate Option 1:
• Grantees may use their federally approved NICR (derived from a federal formula) to seek reimbursement for indirect costs.
• Evidence of NICR approval must be available to BSCC and cover the current grant period’s budget and expenditures. Evidence should include information on the base(s) used to distribute indirect costs, and the treatment of fringe benefits and paid absences. For a multi-year grant, an NICR is required for each grant year or performance period.
• A grantee or applicant awarded federal funds may use this option to budget for indirect costs only if they have a federally approved NICR already in effect. • See Obtaining a Federally Approved NICR section for additional information.

Federal Indirect Cost Rate Option 2:
• Grantees without a federally approved NICR may use the Federal De Minimis (10% of MTDC1) to seek reimbursement for indirect costs.
• This rate can only be used if the grantee receives less than $35 million annually in direct federal funding and has never had an NICR.

Examples of these Federal Indirect Cost Rate Options can be found in Tables 1 and 2 under the Budgeting for Indirect Costs for Federally Funded Grants section.

Budgeting for Indirect Costs for Federally Funded Grants Unless otherwise specified in the RFP and Grant Agreement, indirect costs may be budgeted for and claimed by applicants and grantees in the Grant Funds and/or Match Funds columns of the Project Budget Table within the grant proposal.

Examples of how to budget for indirect costs using Federal Indirect Cost Options 1 and 2 are shown in the tables below:

Federal Indirect Cost Rate Option 1 – Federally Approved NICR In this example, the approved NICR for a grantee is 25%. The grantee’s cost base is salaries & wages plus fringe benefits. Add the totals for salaries & wages plus fringe benefits and multiply this amount by 25%. The following budget table displays the amount budgeted for indirect costs in greater detail:
1 Modified Total Direct Cost (MTDC) means all direct salaries and wages, applicable fringe benefits, materials and supplies, services, travel, and up to the first $25,000 of each subaward. See 2 CFR § 200.68 for full definition of MTDC.

Total Direct Costs: $93,000
Indirect Costs: $22,125
Total Grant-Funded Project Budget: $115,625
Grantees using Federal Indirect Cost Rate Option 1 must immediately notify BSCC if the NICR changes during the grant period. The grantee may be required to submit a Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1, located within the Invoice Workbook) with the updated NICR, including when using the approved rate for matching funds (in total or in part).

Federal Indirect Cost Rate Example: Option 2 – Federal De Minimis (10% of MTDC) In this example, the grantee adds direct salaries and wages, applicable fringe benefits, materials and supplies, services, travel, and up to the first $25,000 of each subaward. The resulting amount is multiplied by 10%. The following budget table displays the amount budgeted for indirect costs in greater detail:

Federal Records Retention for Approved Indirect Cost Rate Documentation Records relevant to the development of the NICR, including an ICRP or CAP must be retained along with all grant specific documentation for a period of three (3) years from the end of the Grant Agreement. This requirement also pertains to subcontractor documentation. Refer to section N.2. Recordkeeping for additional information.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 19 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
Determining Indirect Cost Rates for Federally Funded Subcontractors Grantees directly receiving federal funds that subcontract using BSCC grant funds must use either Federal Indirect Cost Rate Option 1 or 2 when determining an indirect cost rate with a subcontractor.

5. State-Funded Grant Programs: Indirect Cost Rates
Unless otherwise specified in the grant’s RFP and Grant Agreement, entities directly applying for and receiving state grant funds may only budget and charge indirect costs by using one of the following indirect cost options:

Approved Indirect Cost Rate for State-Funded Grants:
• Grantees that have an approved ICRP, CAP or a rate approved by the entity’s governing board or governing agency may use their approved rate to seek reimbursement for indirect costs up to the rate established in the RFP.

Grantees may be required to submit documentation substantiating the approved rate.

Sources can include, but not limited to:
• Board of Supervisors, city council, or Governing Board/Council resolution affirming the approved rate;
• Letter signed by the jurisdiction’s chief financial officer or equivalent; • Copy of Federal or State Cognizant Agency letter displaying the approved rate; or • Single Audit Report referencing the approved rate.

Grantees may also be required to submit their approved ICRP or CAP. • Grantees that have a federally approved NICR may use the NICR to seek reimbursement for indirect costs up to the rate established in the RFP. • Evidence of NICR approval must be available to BSCC and cover the current grant period’s budget and expenditures. Evidence should include information on the base(s) used to distribute indirect costs, and the treatment of fringe benefits and paid absences. For a multi-year grant, an NICR is required for each grant year or performance period.
• Grantees without an approved indirect cost rate may claim indirect costs based on the federal De Minimis rate – 10% of MTDC.
• To apply the De Minimis rate, the grantee will add direct salaries and wages, applicable fringe benefits, materials and supplies, services, travel, and up to the first $25,000 of each subaward. The resulting amount is multiplied by 10% to achieve the permissible amount for indirect costs.

Budgeting for Indirect Costs for State-Funded Grants
Indirect costs may be budgeted for and claimed by applicants and grantees in the Grant Funds and/or Match Funds columns of the Project Budget Table within the grant proposal.

Approved Indirect Cost Rate for State-Funded Grants Example:

In this example, the approved rate listed in the RFP is 10% of the grant award. The Grantee’s ICRP is equal to 15%. In this example, the ICRP exceeds the approved rate as stated in the RFP. The grantee would add all direct costs and multiply this amount by 10%. The following budget table displays the amount budgeted for indirect costs in greater detail:

Grantees using an Approved Indirect Cost Rate for State-Funded Grants must immediately notify BSCC if the rate changes during the grant period. The grantee may be required to submit a Modification Request (Form BSCC 223.1, located with the Invoice Workbook) with the updated rate, including when using the approved rate for matching funds (in total or in part).

State-Funded Grantees Without an Approved Indirect Cost Rate Example: De Minimis Rate (10% of MTDC)
In this example, the grantee adds direct salaries and wages, applicable fringe benefits, materials and supplies, services, travel, and up to the first $25,000 of each subaward. The resulting amount is multiplied by 10% to achieve the amount allowed for indirect costs. The following budget table displays the amount budgeted for indirect costs in greater detail:

State Records Retention for Approved Indirect Cost Rate Documentation Records relevant to the development of the NICR, ICRP, and/or CAP must be retained along with all grant specific documentation for a period of three (3) years from the end of the Grant Agreement. This requirement also pertains to subcontractor documentation. Refer to section N.2. Recordkeeping for additional information.

Determining Indirect Cost Rates for State-Funded Subcontractors Grantees directly receiving state funds that subcontract using BSCC grant funds must use local contracting rules unless otherwise stated in the grant’s RFP and Grant Agreement when determining an indirect cost rate with a subcontractor.

6. Obtaining a Federally-Approved NICR – State and Federal Grant Recipients Should an applicant or grantee seek to obtain a federal NICR, it will be required to prepare an annual ICRP and submit it to its federal cognizant agency. Typically, the federal cognizant agency is the agency that awards the most federal funds to that grantee or applicant.

Note: A grantee or applicant that is a governmental department or agency unit that receives more than $35 million in direct federal funding is required to obtain a federal NICR.

An ICRP is the documentation prepared by a grantee requesting an indirect cost rate. This package normally includes the proposal, related audited financial statements, and other detail supports such as general ledger, trial balance, etc.

The requirements for the development and submission of ICRPs are set out in Federal OMB Appendices III-VII of 2 CFR § 200.

A grantee developing an ICRP for federally funded grant solicitations should follow the guidelines applicable to its type of organization:
• Non-Government Organizations use 2 CFR § 200, Appendix IV; • State/Local Government Central Service Cost Allocation Plans use 2 CFR § 200, Appendix V;
• State/Local/Tribal Indirect Cost Proposals use 2 CFR § 200, Appendix VII.

For more information on federal ICRPs go to:
https://www.ojp.gov/funding/part200uniformrequirements. For state and local governments go to: https://sco.ca.gov/pubs_guides.html (Countywide Cost Allocation Plan Guidelines and Information.

5. OPERATING EXPENSES
General
Allowable operating expenses are defined as necessary expenditures exclusive of personnel salaries, benefits, and equipment. Such expenses may include specific items directly charged to the project, and in some cases, an indirect cost allowance. The expenses must be grant-related (i.e., to further the program objectives as defined in the Grant Award) and be incurred during the grant cycle. The BSCC reserves the right to make the final determination if an operating expense is allowable and necessary. All charges must be clearly documented and rounded off to the nearest whole dollar.

During the grant performance period, individual line items within the operating expense category (with the exception of Consultant or Contract services) may vary from budgeted amounts without prior BSCC approval as long as the total amount budgeted in the category remains the same.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 22 July 2020
A. ALLOWABLE EXPENSE ITEMS
A project may, unless otherwise prohibited, include the following expenses under the Operating Expenses category:
• Answering service fees;
• Bank service charges and check printing fees;
• Computer with an acquisition cost of $4,999* or less; • Computer equipment rentals;
• Confidential expenditures (e.g., asset forfeiture and sting operations); • Conferences, seminars, workshops, and training;
• Consultant services;
• Equipment service and maintenance agreements (including those for computers); • Facilities costs;
• Film or videotape (film or videotape with an acquisition cost of more than $5,000 per unit and a useful life of more than one year must be charged in the Equipment category); • Financial audit allowances;
• Furniture and office equipment with an acquisition cost of $4,999* or less per unit; • Insurance, e.g., vehicle, fire, bonding, theft, and liability (to include malpractice and board liability);
• Internet access;
• Janitorial services;
• Moving expenses;

B. PROVISIONS REGARDING ALLOWABLE OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses which cannot be directly charged to a specific project or funding source, such as expenses related to a copier, utilities or janitorial service, must be prorated on the basis of percentage of usage or other reasonable job-costing basis. An allocation plan must be prepared to determine how such operating expenses should be allocated. Schedules of the methods used to allocate such operating expense must be maintained for audit purposes.

The basis of allocating operating expenses must be reviewed and adjusted accordingly by the Grantee on a periodic basis.

Payments made for certain types of expenses which apply to long periods of time also become allocated expenses. For example, the Grantee pays for an insurance policy with a term of one year (November 1, 2014 to October 31, 2015), and the grant cycle (July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016) includes four months of this one-year period. The Grantee then may allocate one-third (four months) of the insurance costs to the grant.

C. CONFIDENTIAL EXPENDITURES
Confidential expenditures are only allowable for grants to state and local law enforcement agencies that use grant personnel working in an undercover capacity, unless otherwise specifically authorized in the terms of the program.

Requests for Approval – Confidential Expenditures: If not previously authorized in the approved Grant Award, confidential expenditures must be requested using a modification and approved prior to any expenditure. The criteria for confidential expenditures are in the terms of the program.

D. FACILITY RENTAL
Office space for full-time employees and space for files, meetings, mail and supplies may be charged to the grant.

It is the responsibility of the Grantee to ensure that these are consistent with prevailing rates in the local area.

Space for part-time employees must be prorated. For the purpose of this section, the term “employee” includes documented volunteers.

1. Rental Space for Training, Shelter, Counseling Rooms, and Other Required Space Rental space for training, individual or group counseling rooms may also be charged to the grant if authorized in the terms of the program, and providing the rental space charged is based on actual costs to the Grantee and not reimbursed by any other source.

If other required space, such as a storage or evidence room is allowed in the terms of the program, the Grantee must provide justification for charging the costs to the grant.

Such justification must address the cost and need for the space, how it relates to the project’s objectives, and why the agency cannot provide the space at no cost to the grant.

2. Donated Space
A Grantee can claim office space used in a program as in-kind match when they are the owners of the building or the space has been donated.

The value claimed for donated space cannot exceed the monetary value of what would normally be charged for the space in that geographical area.

There must be documentation on file which explains and supports the way the value for the match is determined.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 24 July 2020
E. MOVING EXPENSES
Projects may budget for moving expenses as long as such expenses are reasonable and related to the accomplishment of grant objectives. For example, a project may claim moving expenses if the project site is being relocated to another site and it is necessary to relocate BSCC-funded supplies, office equipment, etc. to the new site. Moving expenses may not be charged to the grant for transporting personal belongings of staff nor may staff relocation expenses be charged to the grant for costs associated with the project move. Further, projects may not use BSCC grant funds to pay for relocation expenses associated with the hiring of new staff.

If the project is one of many components of a larger organization, the project may only charge the prorated share of expenses proportionate to the BSCC-funded project’s percentage of the organization’s total overall budget.

F. RENTED OR LEASED EQUIPMENT
An explanation and cost analysis must be submitted if equipment, budgeted in the operating expenses or equipment category, is to be rented or leased. This written analysis must demonstrate how it is more cost effective to rent or lease the equipment rather than purchase it.

The project must receive approval from BSCC prior to the execution of any rental or lease agreement. If the request is made after the grant is awarded, a Grantee must attach the analysis to a completed modification.

G. TRAVEL AND PER DIEM
Travel is usually warranted when personal contact by project-related personnel is the most appropriate method of completing project-related business.

The most economical method of transportation, in terms of direct expenses to the project and the project-related personnel’s time away from the project, must be used.

Grantees are required to include sufficient per diem and travel allocations for project-related personnel to attend any required BSCC training conferences or workshops as described in the Request for Proposals and Grant Agreement.

1. Out-of-State Travel
Out-of-state travel is generally restricted and only allowed in exceptional situations. Grantees must receive written BSCC approval prior to incurring expenses for out-of-state travel. Even if previously authorized in the Grant Agreement, Grantees must submit a separate written request on Grantee letterhead for approval to the assigned BSCC Field Representative. Outof-state travel requests must include a detailed justification and budget information.

In addition, California prohibits travel, except under specified circumstances, to states that have been found by the California Attorney General to have discriminatory laws. The BSCC will not reimburse for travel to these states unless the travel meets a specific exception under Government Code section 11139.8, subdivision (c). For additional information, please see:
https://oag.ca.gov/ab1887.

2. Units of Government
Grantees that are units of government using BSCC funds may follow either their own written travel and per diem policy or the California State travel and per diem policy. Units of government that plan to use cars from a state, county, city, district carpool, or garage may budget either the mileage rate established by the carpool or garage, or the state mileage rate, not to exceed the loaning agency.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 25 BSCC Grant Administration Guide

3. Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs)
Grantees that are NGOs using BSCC funds must use the California State travel and per diem policy, unless the Grantee’s written travel policy is more restrictive than the State’s, in which case it must be used. Reimbursement is allowed for the cost of commercial carrier fares, parking, bridge, and road tolls, as well as necessary taxi, bus, and streetcar fares. This policy applies equally to NGOs that receive grant funds directly from the BSCC and those that receive grant funds indirectly through a subcontract with another NGO that received a BSCC grant award.

4. Tribes
Grantees that are Tribes must use the California State travel and per diem policy, unless the Grantee’s written travel policy is more restrictive than the State’s, in which case it must be used. Reimbursement is allowed for the cost of commercial carrier fares, parking, bridge, and road tolls, as well as necessary taxi, bus, and streetcar fares.

5. State Travel and Per Diem Policies
a) General
The information below provides details about the State travel policy. The reimbursement rates are maximums, not allowances. In the event of an audit, employees must be able to produce receipts substantiating the amount claimed. To verify rates, go to:

H. FOOD AND BEVERAGES

1. Justification
Unless otherwise prohibited by law, or by the specific terms and conditions of the grant program, grant funds may be used to purchase food and beverages for individuals receiving grant-funded services and programs.

BSCC recognizes that offering food and beverages can help maximize participation among clients. Meals or snacks can be used to encourage attendance among clients who are reluctant to attend, or when programs are held during the lunch or dinner hours or as part of a day-long activity.

2. Definitions
Allowable food and beverage purchases include snacks or meals provided to individuals receiving programs and services funded by the grant. Food and beverage purchases must be reasonable, necessary for participants, and clearly linked to grant-funded activities. Grant funds may not be used to purchase alcohol, tobacco or marijuana products.

Grant funds may not be used to purchase food and beverages for grant staff or partner agency staff, even if it is a grant-related event. Grantees who wish to request an exception to this rule should contact the BSCC Field Representative and present justification for why the food and beverages are necessary to the success of the program model.

3. Requesting Approval
Explicit prior approval from BSCC is required for the purchase of food and beverages, even if the items were mentioned in the grant application approved for funding by the Board.

Grantees seeking approval to purchase food and beverages must submit a memo to the BSCC Field Representative. (Note: It is not necessary to submit a memo for each individual purchase; the memo may contain a list of purchases for the entire grant period.) There is no format for the memo, but it must contain the following information:
(a) A description of the activity or program for which the food and beverages will be purchased.
(b) The name of the subcontractor (if applicable) that will be purchasing the food and beverages.
(c) A description of the items that will be purchased, with the corresponding costs. Provide as much line-item detail as possible and show the total cost. * For example:
4 pizzas per week x 25 weeks @ $15 per pizza ......................................... $ 1,500 2 cases sodas per week x 25 weeks @ $10 per case ................................ $ 500 2 dozen cookies per week x 25 weeks @ $10 per dozen ........................... $ 500 Total...................... $ 2,500
*If the exact quantity or cost is not known, provide detailed estimates. (d) The approximate number of grant-funded participants that will benefit from the food and beverages.
(e) A justification for the purchase of food and beverages to describe how the purchases will benefit the grant project.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 27 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
Discretion for final approval of any purchases under this section lies with BSCC. Purchases should not be made until BSCC approves the written request. The BSCC shall not be obligated to reimburse purchases made without prior approval.

4. Documentation
Grantees should follow any internal policies and procedures that exist for the purchase, documentation and tracking of food and beverages. Grantees must also ensure compliance with any applicable procurement rules.

At a minimum, the grantee must maintain all receipts and supporting documentation related to the purchase. Supporting documentation could include program schedules, lists of attendees, class rosters, etc.

I. PROGRAM INCENTIVES AND PARTICIPANT SUPPORT ITEMS

1. General Guidelines
Unless otherwise prohibited by law or by the specific terms and conditions of the grant program, grant funds may be used to purchase items used as participant support items and program incentives for program participation and/or program completion.

BSCC recognizes that offering incentives can help maximize participation among clients and justice-involved clients. Participant support items and program incentives can be used to encourage program participation, to reward participants who meet certain documented milestones, and to celebrate program completion.

Participant support items and program incentives must be reasonable and clearly linked to grant-funded activities.

2. Requesting Approval
Explicit prior approval from BSCC is required for the purchase of participant support items and program incentives, even if the items were included or budgeted in the grant application approved for funding by the Board.

Grantees seeking approval to purchase participant support items and program incentives must submit a memo to the BSCC Field Representative (see “Using Grant Items for Participant Support Costs and Incentives justification form”). (Note: It is not necessary to submit a memo for each individual purchase; the memo may contain a list of purchases for the entire grant period.)
Discretion for final approval of any purchases under this section lies with BSCC. Purchases should not be made until BSCC approves the written request. The BSCC shall not be obligated to reimburse purchases made without prior approval.

3. Types of Allowable Expenses May Include:

3. Fundraising
BSCC grant funds cannot be used for fundraising. For example, grant funds cannot be used to organize financial campaigns, endowment drives, solicitation of gifts and bequests, or similar expenses incurred solely to raise capital or obtain contributions, unless fundraising for the furtherance of grant objectives is specifically allowed under the terms of the program.

4. Real Property and Improvements
Expenses for real property, including land, land improvements, structures and their attachments, and structural improvements and alterations are not allowable expenditures unless specifically authorized in the terms of the program.

5. Interest, Charges, Fees, and Penalties
Finance charges, late payment fees, penalties, and returned check charges are not allowable expenditures. The cost of interest payments is only allowable if the cost is a result of a lease/purchase agreement.

6. Weapons and Ammunition

8. Depreciation
Depreciation charges are not allowable expenditures.

6. EQUIPMENT / FIXED ASSETS
Equipment and fixed assets are nonexpendable personal property having a useful life of more than one year and an acquisition cost of $5,000 or more per unit (including tax and installation). If equipment is purchased as a complete package (i.e., computer, monitor, modem, software, etc.), the total package cost, not the unit cost, would determine if it qualifies under the equipment category. All equipment purchased by the Grantee is the property of the Grantee. BSCC does not claim title to the equipment but requires the Grantee to maintain accountability for the equipment.

A. PRIOR APPROVAL
All equipment or fixed assets with an acquisition cost of $3,500 or more require prior approval by the BSCC. The Grantee must submit a written declaration that the equipment or fixed assets to be purchased are: 1) to be used for services directly associated with the project; 2) essential to the success of the project; and 3) less expensive than leasing or renting the equipment for the grant cycle based on an investigation of lease and rental options.

B. ALLOWABLE EQUIPMENT
Equipment that is directly related to and used for project activities will be considered for purchase approval only if no other equipment owned by the applicant is available and suitable for the project. Projects are expected to purchase only energy efficient equipment whenever possible and appropriate.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 31 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
Grant funds cannot be used for equipment if specifically prohibited in the authorizing legislation or restricted in the terms of the program.

Grant funds cannot be used to reimburse the project for equipment obtained prior to the beginning of the grant cycle.

Equipment should be ordered as soon as possible so that it can be placed in service during the grant cycle.

1. Motorized Vehicles
Aircraft, watercraft, and other motorized vehicles (except automobiles) are not allowable budget items unless specifically authorized in the terms of the program.

2. Automobiles
If automobiles are allowable pursuant to the terms of the program, the Project must provide substantial justification demonstrating the grant-related need. The justification must be submitted attached to a modification if not previously authorized in the approved Grant Award and include the following information:
• Describe the need for a vehicle, including the size of the service area and the need to provide direct service away from the office;
• Describe the lack of available agency vehicles;
• Describe the lack of available personal vehicles for which mileage can be charged or a reason why the agency will not allow personal vehicle usage during working hours; and • Include a cost analysis for the vehicle purchase as compared to other options, including lease and personal vehicle use with mileage.

3. Computers and Automated Equipment
a) Internet Access
Funded projects are required to maintain internet access with an established e-mail address for grant-related communication with BSCC. Grant funds may be used for this purpose unless specifically restricted by the terms of the program. b) Justification
The purchase of computers and automated equipment necessary to achieve grant objectives may be requested unless prohibited in the terms of the program. Approval for purchases is contingent on the project's ability to demonstrate a cost effective, projectrelated need. This is best demonstrated by clearly relating each computer system or component to the grant objectives and activities. The amount of information necessary will be determined by the complexity of the proposed system. c) Cost
The cost of a computer system must include all expenses required to purchase, install and operate the system. These expenses include, but are not limited to hardware, software, maintenance, upgrade, training, conversion, technical assistance, consultants, programmers, analysts, furniture, supplies, modems, telephone lines, and connect time to mainframe or data centers. Computers and related expenses must be itemized in the budget pages of the Grant Award and described in sufficient detail to allow BSCC to assess their size and complexity.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 32 July 2020
d) Community-Based Organization (CBO)
Applicants from community-based organizations may budget for computer equipment, software, and related costs. BSCC will evaluate the proposed purchase on the basis of grant-related need.

If the implementing agency is a CBO sponsored by a unit of government, BSCC’s policy for CBOs will apply, and BSCC will also evaluate the proposed purchase of computer equipment, software, and related costs.
e) Units of Government
Applicants from units of government may budget for computer equipment, software, and related costs. BSCC will evaluate the proposed purchase on the basis of grant-related need.

Units of government using federal funds to establish or enhance criminal intelligence systems are also subject to 28 CFR Part 23, Criminal Intelligence Systems Operating Policies. Consult the specific terms of the program for information regarding additional requirements and approvals.
f) Justification – Computers and Automated Systems
To certify that all resources (e.g., hardware, software, personnel, and telecommunications) to be utilized by the project are in compliance, the Project Director must submit a written justification. If not previously authorized in the approved grant award, the justification must be attached to a modification and demonstrate that the purchase abides by applicable standards, policies, and procedures for automated systems as contained within the terms of the program, the agency’s local policies and operating procedures, and this Guide.

4. Lease-to-Purchase Agreement
If a lease-to-purchase equipment is requested, a Grantee must submit a justification and cost analysis, demonstrating that it is more cost effective to lease rather than purchase the item.

If a lease-to-purchase agreement is not previously authorized in the approved Grant Award, the justification and cost analysis must be submitted with a modification. The Project must receive BSCC approval prior to the signing of the lease/purchase agreement.

5. Equipment Identification and Records
Projects must maintain a readily identifiable inventory of all equipment purchased wholly, or in part, with BSCC grant funds. Equipment must be noted in a log, either written or digital containing the following information for as long as the equipment is owned by the Grantee.

Equipment records must contain the following information:
• A description of the property;
• Serial number, or other identification number;
• Source of the property;
• Identification of the title holder;
• Acquisition date;
• Cost of the equipment;
• Percentage of Federal participation in the cost of the equipment; • Location of the equipment;
• Use and condition of the equipment;
• Unit acquisition cost; and
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 33 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
• Disposition, data, including date of disposal and sale price.

A Grantee must take a physical inventory of equipment and reconcile the results with the equipment records at least once every two years.

The Project is responsible for maintaining all equipment purchased with grant funds and the equipment must be available for review by BSCC staff during Site and Monitoring visits.

6. Losses/Replacements
Projects must safeguard equipment purchased with grant funds and are responsible for any losses. Lost, stolen, or destroyed equipment must be reported to BSCC in writing within 14 calendar days of the date of the loss. The report must include appropriate police reports, insurance claims, and a letter signed by the Project Director explaining the circumstances involved and the precautions taken to prevent such losses from occurring in the future. The report must also detail how the equipment will be replaced, the timeframe for replacement, and the potential impact on program objectives without replacement of the equipment.

Damaged equipment that will not be repaired must be reported to BSCC on a modification within 14 calendar days of the date of damage, with a justification explaining how grant objectives will be achieved without the equipment. Projects must obtain written approval from BSCC prior to replacing, trading, or otherwise disposing of damaged, lost, or stolen grant equipment.

7. CONTRACTS AND PROCUREMENTS
A. RESPONSIBILITY
The Grantee is the responsible entity, without recourse to BSCC, regarding the settlement and satisfaction of all contractual and administrative issues arising from contracts of the Grantee and Grant Award procurements. This responsibility includes, but is not limited to, disputes, claims, and protests of awards.

1. Units of Government Guidelines
Governmental entities must comply with applicable procurement laws and policies for their jurisdiction when contracting for goods or procuring services. Matters concerning violation of laws must be referred to the local, state, or federal authority having jurisdiction.

2. Definitions
a) Contracts
Contracts refer to the purchasing of services including, but not limited to, independent CPA audits, maintenance agreements, accounting services, and consultants. All contracts are subject to BSCC contract standards as outlined in this section. b) Procurement
Procurement refers to the purchasing of goods necessary to carry out the project objectives. BSCC procurement standards apply to all contracts for goods, including office supplies, and equipment paid for in whole or in part by grant funds.

3. Approvals
All contracts and procurements must be for allowable expenditures according to the terms of the grant program under which the agreement is funded.

Purchases for computers and/or equipment valued at $3,500 or more, which were not previously approved in the Grant Award budget, require prior approval from the BSCC.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 34 July 2020
For CBOs and entities that are not units of government, contracts over $50,000 require BSCC prior approval. Requests for approval must include the procedures that will be used to comply with section 7.B. below.

B. METHODS OF CONTRACTING AND/OR PROCUREMENT
For non-governmental entities, contracts and procurements that use grant funds must be made by one of the following methods:

1. Informal Advertising
a) Contracts and Procurements under $5,000
Contracts and procurements under $5,000 do not require formal advertising. However, informal competition is still suggested for purchases between $100 and $4,999. b) Documentation
Documentation showing the service providers or vendors contacted, including the vendor's name, address, telephone number, who provided the quote, the date contacted, and the prices quoted, must be maintained in the project’s files for audit purposes. A minimum of three (3) vendors or two (2) State certified small businesses should be contacted.

2. Formal Advertising
Contracts and procurements for purchases $5,000 or over require formal advertising. In this process, a bidder is selected based on material submitted in a response to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) or RFP only. IFBs/RFPs must clearly define all requirements the bidder must fulfill for the bid or offer, which will be evaluated by the project. Bidders are not allowed to discuss or clarify any points after their bids have been submitted. A firm, fixed-price contract results with no face-to-face negotiation.
a) Invitation for Bid (IFB)
An IFB is used to solicit prices for services or goods based on definitive specifications. It must include a clear and accurate description of the technical requirements for the services, (Contracts) to be produced, or the material or product, (Goods) to be procured.

The description must not contain features that unduly restrict competition.

Using clear and precise specifications is crucial in formal advertising because it ensures that all bidders will have a complete and consistent understanding of what is required.

Accurate descriptions of the requirements make certain that bidders will not have varying interpretations and in turn, they will accurately account for all costs in their responses, including any timelines, and all programmatic requirements. b) Request for Proposals (RFP)
RFP often does not provide a detailed description of what is to be provided. It is designed to solicit a proposal from bidders to solve a stated problem or meet a stated need. The proposal is the product of the bidder's creative thoughts and provides the detailed approach and description of what is to be accomplished or produced, as well as a price for the services or goods to be provided.

RFP should include:
• A clear statement of the problem to be solved;
• Realistic terms as to what the contractor is to accomplish; • Time schedules, including dates for awarding the contract, commencement of performance, submission of progress reports, and completion; • Payment plans and schedule, as appropriate; and
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 35 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
• Proposal Requirements for Bidders:
• Description of qualifications, description of lead personnel, amount of time and personnel to be expended, and equipment and facilities to be utilized; • Description of techniques to be used in solving the stated problem or meeting the stated need; and
• Total cost of the contract.

3. Contract and Procurement Awards
Contract and procurement awards must be made to the responsible contractor or vendor whose bid or offer is responsive to the solicitation and is most advantageous to the project, as well price and other factors considered.

Any or all bids or offers may be rejected when it is in the project's best interest to do so, and such rejections are also in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local laws or ordinances, rules, regulations, and policies.

Consideration should be given to such matters as contractor integrity, record of past performance, financial and technical resources, and/or accessibility to the necessary resources. A bidder is considered responsible when it has been established that the bidder has the technical capability, financial capacity, sufficient staff, a satisfactory record of past performance, and is otherwise qualified and eligible. For contracts greater than $25,000, you must also verify that the contractor has not been suspended or debarred from participation in federal awards prior to entering into the contract.

4. Cost Price Analysis
All procurements and/or contracts funded by federal grant awards must have a cost or price analysis performed and maintained on file. The cost/price analysis is written documentation demonstrating the reasonableness of the proposed price of the contract or procured item.

Specifically:
• Price analysis is the process of examining and evaluating a proposed price without evaluating its separate elements of cost to determine the price is reasonable. It is generally used for simple procurements for which there is adequate catalog pricing and market competition.
• Cost analysis is the review and evaluation of separate elements of cost and profit or fee in a contractor’s proposal. A cost analysis is required when a bidder is required to submit the elements of his estimated cost, e.g. on consulting contracts for professional services.

A cost analysis is necessary whenever competition is lacking, and for non-competitive bid procurements, contract modifications and change orders.

The method and degree of cost/price analysis is dependent on the facts surrounding the particular procurement situation. In addition to price, examples of factors that can be taken into consideration include items such as:
• The ability, capacity and skill of the bidder to perform the contract or provide the service required;
• Whether the bidder can perform the contract or provide the service promptly or within the time specified;
• The warranty, product life expectancy and/or the ability of the bidder to provide future maintenance and service of the item being procured.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 36 July 2020
C. NON-COMPETITIVE BID REQUESTS
A Non-Competitive Bid (NCB) transaction shall be defined as a contract for goods or services, where only a single source that can provide the services or goods is afforded the opportunity to offer a price for the specified services or goods. Contracts sometimes include goods as well as services, and this definition will also apply to those circumstances.

The project must maintain documentation for justification of NCB contracts under $5,000, including professional services and consulting contracts. The documentation must include the information outlined in this section, support the conditions listed below, and be maintained on file at the project's offices. Prior approval is required for NCB contracts of $5,000 or over.

1. Conditions of an NCB
NCB must meet at least one of the following conditions:
• When the goods or services required are available from only one contractor/ vendor; • When an IFB or RFP produces only one qualified bidder; • Emergency in nature (the contract is necessary for immediate preservation of public health, welfare or safety);
• The contractor meets a temporary or time limited employment need; • No payment is made for services rendered; only per diem and travel is paid; • The contract is solely for the purpose of obtaining expert witnesses for criminal trials; • There is a maintenance agreement for equipment that is under documented warranty or where there is only one authorized or qualified representative or where there is only one distributor in the area for service;
• Proprietary software contracts;
• The contractor possesses unique features or is uniquely positioned to supply the required service; or
• To provide interim services while conducting competitive bid.

2. NCB Justification Procedure
All NCB contract for services or purchases of $5,000 or over must be justified and have prior written approval from BSCC. A justification statement must be presented in the format provided in the next section. Source documentation as to how the NCB was determined must be on file and available for audits. The checklist will not be considered source documentation. a) Justification Procedure – Contracts
Include a brief description of the program or project and the services being contracted.

This information must include the Grant Award number, contract amount, and pertinent background data.
1) Need and Price Determination
Explain the necessity to contract non-competitively and how the price for the contract was determined, including:
• Expertise of contractor;
• Management capabilities to perform the tasks required; • Contractor's responsiveness to need identified by the project; • Contractor's relevant knowledge and experience; and
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 37 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
• Justification of the reasonableness of the cost. The following factors will be used in determining that the costs are justified:
o Cost information that has sufficient detail to support and justify the contract; o Cost information for similar services with differences noted and explained; o Special factors affecting the cost of the contract.
2) Uniqueness of Contract
Explain the uniqueness of the contract, including:
• Patents, copyrights;
• Facilities, investments; or

b) Justification Procedures – Procurement
Justification must include a description of the product to be purchased, the need for the specific brand and its relationship to the project. This information must include the Grant Award number, the cost or purchase amount and pertinent background data. It should explain the necessity of the purchase and how the price for the product was determined. c) One Bid Received or Considered Responsive
In a situation where NCB is necessary because only one bid or proposal has been received or considered responsive, the following additional information is required:
• A copy of the IFB or RFP and the bidder’s list;
• A description of the method used to solicit responses. Copies of newspaper ads and information outlining the development of the bidder’s list must be included; • A description of the follow-up activity performed to determine why other contractors did not submit a bid; and
• An explanation as to why it was not put out to bid again.

D. ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT OR PURCHASE ORDER/DOCUMENT
A contract or purchase order/document defines the relationship or agreement between the project and the contractor or vendor. All contracts and purchase orders/documents must be prepared in accordance with existing State policies and clearly define the responsibilities of all parties.

1. Minimum Requirements
At a minimum, a contract or purchase order/document must include the following:
• Designation of the parties to the contract or the agreement; • Term of the contract (period of performance) or agreement; • Maximum amount and basis upon which the payment is to be made under the terms of the contract or agreement;
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 38 July 2020
• For procurements – clear definition of the types and quantities of the products to be delivered including delivery schedules;
• For contracts – clear and complete statement of the work or services to be performed, rendered, or provided;

• Retention of all required records for three years after all final payments are made and all other pending matters are closed; and
• Retention of all required records for three years after Grantee makes final payments and all other pending matters are closed.

E. SELECTING A CONTRACTOR
Each proposal or bid should be evaluated to determine the proposal that will best meet the project’s needs. The following are some criteria that should be included in the evaluation:
• Does the bidder understand the project’s stated problems or needs? • Is the approach to the problem or need reasonable and feasible? • Does the bidder have the organizational, financial solvency, resources, and experience to perform the assignment? Has the bidder had experience in similar areas? • What are the professional qualifications of the personnel committed to the contract? Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 39 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
• Is the bidder on the federal suspension and debarment list? • What is the total cost?
F. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR/CONSULTANT
Consultant services are either provided on a contractual or salary basis by individuals or organizations that are not employees of the project. Services provided by a salaried employee of an agency identified in an Operational Agreement (OA) are not considered consultant services.

Independent contractors must not be used in lieu of employees. If the contract is $5,000 or over, the project must hire the independent contractor through Competitive Bid or submit a NonCompetitive Bid (NCB) request to BSCC for prior approval. If the contract is less than $5,000, the project must maintain documentation for justification of the NCB contract.

Independent contractors are defined as individuals or organizations that meet any of the following criteria:
• Produce a specific product or service;
• Work independently without direct supervision from the project; • Work on specific projects;
• Provide services for a limited number of hours or period of time; and/or • Have no agency management or oversight responsibilities that are directed toward the financial success or direction of the agency.

There must be a signed, written agreement between the organization and independent contractor specifying the contract period, compensation rate, duties or obligations, and any other conditions of employment. For more guidance, see California Department of General Services, State Contracting Manual Vol. 1 (April 2015) available at http://www.dgs.ca.gov/ols/Resources/StateContractManual.aspx.

G. RATES
The rate is to be negotiated by the Grantee in accordance with the agency’s consultant hiring policies. The rate is the total amount payable including any and all benefit.

Grantee must ensure that the per-day rate (excluding travel and per diem cost) paid to independent contractors is reasonable. An eight-hour day may include preparation, evaluation and travel time in addition to the time required for actual performance.

1. Exception to Rates
Compensation for independent contractors employed by state and local governments will be allowed when the unit of government will not provide their services without costs. In these cases, the rate of compensation is not to exceed the daily salary rate paid by the unit of government.

2. Expert Witness Fees
Prosecution or criminal defense projects, routinely using “expert witnesses” as independent contractors to conduct evaluations and provide expert testimony in the courtroom. These kinds of projects may only charge for costs above that which the county is required to cover.

The total amount budgeted for expert witness fees must not exceed ten percent (10%) of the project’s total budget.

Written justification for proposed expert witness cost must accompany a modification if not previously approved in the Grant Award. The justification must include the following:
• Qualifications, training, and experience of the expert(s), including a statement regarding recognition by the court of the individual as an expert; Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 40 July 2020
• Specialized certification/license [e.g., Masters in Social Work (MSW), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Marriage, Family and Child Counselor (MFCC), Medical Doctor (MD)];
• Rate of pay per hour, including documentation of a survey of the availability of similar consultants, the current “going rate,” the proposed rate of pay, as well as a cost breakdown if the expert is paid according to services (e.g., mileage, waiting time, court testimony); • Proposed services to be provided (e.g., analysis of forensic evidence, psychological evaluation); and
• Reason why this cost cannot be paid with county or other funds.

H. CONTRACT LIMITATIONS
Specific provisions for contracting with individuals, other government units, and non-government organizations are as follows:
• Organizations funded by BSCC shall comply with IRS requirements related to consultants; • Public officers or employees of a state or local government entity cannot be individual contractors if they engaged in any of the negotiations, transactions, planning, arrangements, or any part of the decision-making process relevant to the contract while employed in any capacity by any state, local agency, or department;
• Travel and per diem costs must be in conformance with project policies; • Preparation and travel time may not be included without adequate written justification; and • Equipment purchase and/or leases may not be included in consultant contracts.

I. CONTRACT PROVISIONS
Consultant contracts must adhere to, but are not limited to the following:
• Applicable requirements of the terms of the program must be incorporated into all consultant contracts;
• The project must require source documentation of consultants that supports contract billings.

Time and attendance reports must support hours charged. Travel vouchers detailing the purpose, time, and destination must support travel claims. Purchase orders, invoices, etc., must support operating expense claims. These requirements do not apply to fixed fee contracts;
• Compensation, travel, and per diem rates must be specified in the consultant's contract and must comply with those of the project or be more restrictive; • Performance must be measurable. Objectives and timetables must be clearly stated. Progress reports must be required, at least quarterly, to ensure services are provided in compliance with the contract;
• Dual compensation (i.e., payment to a party more than once for the same work) must be specifically excluded; and
• Settlement of disputes between the project and the consultant is the responsibility of the project. BSCC is not responsible or obligated to or for the consultant and will not intervene in disputes between the consultant and the project.

J. DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
It is the Grantee’s responsibility to ensure that all subcontractors paid by BSCC grant funds must comply with the provisions of Section 3.E.The subcontractors must notify their employees that they are prohibited from engaging in the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession or use of controlled substances.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 41 BSCC Grant Administration Guide

8. OPERATIONAL AGREEMENTS
Definition: An Operational Agreement (OA) is a formal agreement between an implementing agency and one or more partner agencies. It is also referred to as a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) or Letter of Intent. An OA or MOU is not a contract for goods and/or services because partner agencies are active participants in the implementation of the project.

A. ESTABLISHING OPERATIONAL AGREEMENTS
An OA or MOU may be required by the terms of the program. Grantees should refer to the terms of the applicable RFA or RFP for instruction. Unlike the procurement process, Implementing Agencies are not required to use a competitive bid process to select partner agencies for an OA.

Implementing Agencies are expected to select partner agencies that are the best equipped to support the implementation of the project. However, partner agencies must be units of government or non-profit organizations.

B. ELEMENTS OF AN OPERATIONAL AGREEMENT
The sample OA form provided in the RFP or RFA may be used as a reference. The following elements must be included in the OA:
• Name of the Implementing Agency and the partner agency in the OA.; • Titles and contact information for the primary contacts for each partner; • Time frame;
• Roles and responsibilities of the Implementing agency and each partner agency. • Specific information concerning all fiscal transfers. The OA must include the total amount of grant funds that will be transferred to each partner agency, the process for transferring such funds, the use of such funds, and any match provided by the partner agency. Any funds included in the OA must be clearly designated in the Grant Award budget; • Specific information concerning all non-fiscal resources shared between the Implementing Agency and a partner agency. This includes shared equipment, staff time, office space, or other resources contributing to the implementation of the project; • Reporting requirements to collect information necessary from each partner agency to meet BSCC reporting requirements; and
• Dated signatures of the chief executives or designees of the Implementing Agency and each partner agency.

C. REQUIREMENTS OF PARTNER AGENCIES
Grantees must ensure that partner agencies that receive grant funds comply with all applicable the terms of the program and this Guide on the use of grant funds.

9. PUBLICATIONS: MULTI-MEDIA MATERIALS, COPYRIGHTS AND PATENTS A. DEFINITION
The term “publications” includes brochures, posters, videotapes, DVD/CDs, or other multi-media materials. It does not include transient information published solely on a project’s web site.

B. BSCC REVIEW
Where activities supported in part or in whole with BSCC grant funds produce original publications, the Grantee must notify BSCC 60 calendar days in advance of any intended publication. This notification must be in addition to the Grant Application and subsequent award.

Upon request from BSCC, the project must submit a request for approval for the materials to be published.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 42 July 2020
In response, BSCC may request to review the publication. The project may not publish the material until BSCC provides final written approval. If BSCC approves the material, the Grantee must furnish BSCC with two (2) copies of the final product within 30 calendar days of publication.

C. INCOME RESULTING FROM SALE OR DISTRIBUTION
As long as BSCC maintains ownership of the publication, any income resulting from the sale or distribution of publications produced in part or in whole by BSCC grant funds is considered project income and is subject to the provisions of Section 13.

After disposition and transfer of title, no report of income generated by the publication will be necessary unless otherwise required by BSCC.

BSCC reserves the right to retain ownership and require additional reporting of generated income beyond the Grant Award period or cycle on exceptional publications as deemed necessary.

D. TRANSFER OF PUBLICATION TITLE
After the completion of the Grant Award period or funding cycle (whichever is later), transfer of title and/or copyright may be approved by the BSCC upon certification that any profits derived from or generated by the publication will be used for criminal justice related activities, or to further the original intent of the grant project. In determining whether or not to approve transfer of title, the BSCC will consider programmatic and fiscal performance conditions, the potential for project income, the applicability, and cost to the field in general.

E. CREDITS AND DISCLAIMERS
Publications produced in part or in whole with grant funds may require the following credit reference:
“This publication was financially assisted by the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC).”
Publications produced in part or in whole with state or federal funds will require the following credit reference:
“This project/publication was supported by funding awarded by (state/federal grant fund) (grant number) through the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC).” BSCC may also require that the publication include the following disclaimer statement:
“The opinions, findings, and conclusions in this publication are those of the author and not necessarily those of the BSCC. The BSCC reserves a royalty-free, nonexclusive, and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, and use these materials and to authorize others to do so.” The BSCC reserves the right to require additional information in the publication. These statements must be placed in a visible location at the beginning and/or end of the published materials.

Projects producing publications should consult their assigned BSCC Program Analyst to coordinate the appropriate credit reference.

F. COPYRIGHTS AND RIGHTS IN DATA
All activities supported under the Grant Award Agreement are considered “work made for hire” as defined under Title 17 USC Section 101, and shall include, but are not limited to, publications, original computer programs, writings, sound recordings, pictorial reproductions, drawings or other geographical representations and works of any similar nature. With regard to any “work made for hire,” the BSCC owns all rights comprised in the copyright, and therefore the BSCC reserves a royalty-free, nonexclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, and use such materials, in whole or in part, and to authorize others to do so.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 43 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
G. PATENTS
If any discovery or invention arises or is developed in the course of, or as a result of, work performed, in whole or in part, with BSCC grant funds, credit of the discovery or invention must be given to the BSCC as provided in subsection E. Determination of rights to inventions or discoveries shall be made by the BSCC, or its duly authorized representative, who shall have the sole and exclusive power to determine whether or not and where a patent application should be filed, and to determine the disposition of all rights to such inventions or discoveries, including title to and license rights under any patent application or patent which may be issued.

In all cases, the BSCC shall acquire at least an irrevocable, nonexclusive, and royalty-free license to practice and have practiced anywhere without limitation, for governmental purposes, any invention made with the BSCC grant funds.

10. GRANTEE FINANCIAL INVOICES
Generally, disbursement of grant funds occurs on a reimbursement basis for actual program costs incurred during a reporting period. Depending on the requirements of the grant program, invoices are submitted on a quarterly or monthly basis. Some state funded grants allow advance payments.

Grantees should check their Grant Agreement for invoicing requirements.

A. EXECUTION OF GRANT AGREEMENT
Grantees may invoice only after the Grant Agreement (contract) is fully executed. A fully executed contract meets the following conditions:
• The face page (Form Std. 213) has been signed by both the Grantee and the BSCC. • All required attachments and appendices (per the RFP) are signed, approved, and on file at the BSCC.

When a fully executed contract is in place, Grantees may begin submitting invoices (BSCC Form 201) for actual costs incurred during the grant cycle. Costs incurred prior to the start date of the grant cycle (as listed on the face page of the contract) cannot be charged against the grant.

B. GUIDELINES AND REQUIREMENTS OF THE INVOICE PROCESS

1. Disbursement of Funds
Disbursement of grant funds may occur only after:
• The Grant Agreement has been fully executed;
• The grant cycle has begun;
• The State Budget has been enacted and includes spending appropriation for the grant program (applies to state and federal grants); and
• The BSCC has received the appropriate form (Financial Invoice (BSCC Form 201 or Advance Payment Invoice (BSCC Form 201A)) requesting reimbursement or disbursement of funds.

Any variance from this procedure will be described in the grant agreement.

2. Grantee Certification of Invoice
• Invoices must be submitted by the Project’s Authorized Financial Officer (AFO). The AFO must certify that each invoice submitted to the BSCC is accurate and reflects actual expenditures incurred by the project.
• The person preparing the invoice and the person certifying the invoice cannot be the same person. Since the AFO must certify the invoice, someone other than the AFO must prepare the invoice.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 44 July 2020
• Failure to submit an accurate financial invoice in a timely manner may result in payments being withheld, delayed, or denied.
• For Grantees that received an advance payment, failure to submit an accurate financial invoice in a timely manner may result in the grantee being transitioned to a reimbursement model of payment. It may also result in payments being withheld, delayed, or denied.

3. Address for Receiving Payment
• All warrants will be mailed to the designated payment mailing address indicated on the Payee Data Record (Std. 204), Applicant Information Form of the RFP and under Project Officials in the Grant Agreement.
• If the designated payment mailing address changes, notify the BSCC immediately. The BSCC must have an approved address change on file before warrants will be mailed to the new address.

4. General Requirements for the Financial Invoice (BSCC Form 201) • Grantees must submit a Financial Invoice by the due date listed in the Grant Agreement for each reporting period of the grant cycle, regardless of whether funds are used or requested.
• The Grantee must expend or be obligated to expend funds before claiming an expenditure on the Financial Invoice.
• Grantees may only claim expenditures or encumbrances on a financial invoice that were incurred between the start date of the grant cycle and the end date of the current reporting period.
• Grantee understands any overpayment of funds will be deducted from current or future invoices. If overpayment exists at the end of the grant, grantee shall reimburse the BSCC. • BSCC Form 201 will not allow over expending in any line item. If funds need to be moved from one-line item to another, the grantee must submit a modification request (See Section 14, Amendments, Changes, and Modifications) and the request must be approved by the BSCC.
• Double billing - projects are prohibited from billing other federal, state, or local agencies for goods and/or services that have been billed and/or reimbursed to the project by the BSCC
• Grant funds shall not replace (supplant) any federal, state and/or local funds that have been appropriated for the same purpose.
• Any other requirements will be included in the Grant Agreement.

5. Use of Funds, Encumbrances, and Liquidation
a) Authorized Use of Grant Funds
Grant funds (and contributed match) may only be used for the purpose(s) authorized in the Grant Award and must be accounted for as specified in the Grant Agreement and in this Guide.

The grantee is responsible for ensuring that invoices submitted to the BSCC claim actual expenditures and eligible project costs.
b) Definition of an Encumbrance
In general, an encumbrance occurs when funds are set aside to pay for an expense. It is an accounting transaction, which should be recorded appropriately. The funds are committed to a specific use and are no longer available for other expenditures.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 45 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
Since the goods or services have not been received, the project legally owes nothing to the vendor or supplier.

An encumbrance is defined by the following three characteristics:
• The expenditure is approved in the original budget or subsequent approved modification of the original budget;
• A formal written order or request (i.e., requisition) is approved by the Project Director or designated official prior to the end of the grant cycle; and • A purchase order/contract has been submitted to the vendor or supplier of goods or services.
c) Liquidation Period
The BSCC has a liquidation period (generally 90-calendar days) immediately following the end of the grant cycle. This liquidation period exists to allow the BSCC time to reconcile grantee expenditures and encumbrances. The Grantee may not incur or claim any new expenses or obligations after the end date of the grant cycle or during the liquidation period. All services and deliverables must occur before the end date of the grant project cycle as listed in the Grant Agreement.
d) Final Financial Invoice
The BSCC will use the final Financial Invoice during the liquidation period to reconcile all expenditures. All final expenditures must be claimed and submitted to the BSCC by the last invoice due date listed in the Grant Agreement. In order for expenditures to be claimed on the final invoice, these expenditures must have: (1) met the definition of an expenditure or encumbrance and (2) been financed by an encumbrance recorded prior to the end of the grant cycle (recorded = formal entry in accounting records).

C. ADVANCE PAYMENT GRANTS
The BSCC may provide advance payment of grant funds under certain programs. If advance payment is allowed, the BSCC will disburse funds based on a prescribed schedule as defined in the RFP and Grant Agreement.

1. Accounting and Interest
a) The grantee shall agree to deposit advanced grant funds into a banking account established by the grantee. Grant funds must be clearly differentiated from any other funds within the banking account and tracking of the grant funds, separate and apart from any other funds in the account, must be readily available.
b) Any interest earned on the account must be reported on the Financial Invoice. c) Earned interest is project income. It may only be used for allowable expenses during the grant period. Prior to spending project income, grantees must complete an Income Allocation Modification before expending any earned interest.

2. Invoicing Requirements
a) Grantees receiving advance payments are required to follow all the requirements and guidelines listed above in B. Guidelines and Requirements of the Invoice Process plus any additional requirements listed in the Grant Agreement. b) Grantees must submit an invoice for each reporting period by the due dates prescribed in the Grant Agreement, whether or not funds were expended. c) Any unspent funds at the end of the grant period must be returned to the BSCC within 120 days

D. LOCATING, DOWNLOADING, AND SUBMITTING THE FINANCIAL INVOICE

1. Where to Find the Financial Invoice (BSCC Form 201)
The Financial Invoice form is part of the Invoice Workbook, an Excel workbook used to track all elements of the grantee budget throughout the grant cycle, including advance payments, invoices, budget modifications, project income allocation, and changes to line-item narratives.

Within the Invoice Workbook there is a Financial Invoice (BSCC Form 201) worksheet for each invoice reporting period as listed in Exhibit B of the Grant Agreement.

2. Where to Find the Invoice Workbook
Grantees can locate the Invoice Workbook for their grant on the BSCC website by clicking Grantee Invoicing under Quick Links on the Corrections Planning and Grant Programs (CPGP) Division page: http://www.bscc.ca.gov/s_cppgrantinvoicing/. Grant programs are listed alphabetically. Links to the Invoice Workbooks are located under each grant program heading.

3. Downloading and Saving the Invoice Workbook
The Invoice Workbooks are password protected. The password for the invoice will be provided to you by BSCC staff, as applicable.

Upon approval of each invoice the BSCC analyst assigned to your grant program will update and upload the current Invoice Workbook to the Grantee Invoicing page before the next reporting period. Prior to submitting an invoice, grantees should ensure they have downloaded the workbook with the most current budget information. If the most current invoice workbook has not been uploaded contact the BSCC analyst assigned to your grant program.

Important note: do not work in the invoice workbook in a web browser. Always download and save the invoice workbook to a local computer before making any changes. Detailed instructions for downloading are located on the instruction tab of the invoice workbook.

4. Submitting the Financial Invoice
Detailed instructions for completing and submitting the financial invoice (BSCC Form 201) are located on the INSTRUCTIONS worksheet in the invoice workbook. Note: It is helpful to print the instruction page for reference before working in the invoice.

The Financial Invoice is set up for automated submission. a) Enabling Macros
There are functions within the invoice workbook that require the use of macros. A macro is a series of commands and/or functions, such as calculations, that are embedded within the Excel file. In most cases, Excel will prompt the user to enable macros. When this prompt appears, click "enable.”
Note: enabling macros for the invoice workbook will not compromise the security of the local system or the security of the agency's network. If the prompt to enable macros does not appear, contact your IT department to assist.
b) Microsoft Outlook
The invoice submittal process relies on the configuration of Microsoft Outlook on a local computer. If Microsoft Outlook is not available on the computer on which you are working, contact the assigned CPGP Program Analyst for technical assistance.

If you need further assistance with the invoice process, including technical assistance, contact the CPGP Program Analyst assigned to your grant program.

11. ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS
The project must establish and maintain an adequate accounting and internal administrative control system. The Grantee is required to establish and maintain an accounting system that at a minimum includes the general ledger accounting structure, subsidiary accounting records, and procedures that define how and by whom the funds are handled. The accounting records must identify the receipt and the expenditure of all BSCC funds.

Overall, the accounting system should conform to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as required in Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Grants and Agreements.

The accounting system must fully record the amount and disposition of all project funds.

Accounting records must show receipt of funds and expenditures by source (e.g., federal, state, or local).

Match funds and related expenditures must be identified in the accounting records (i.e., general ledger) and reported on the Financial Invoice (Form BSCC 201).

A fund accounting system must be maintained that ensures all BSCC income and expenditures are separately identifiable from non-BSCC funds.

Financial institutions used for the deposit of grant funds must be insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC).

Accounting systems for BSCC projects may be on a cash, accrual, or modified accrual basis. NOTE:

Financial Invoice (BSCC Form 201) payment requests should be made only on a cash basis as specified in Section 11.

A. CASH BASIS
Under a cash basis system, revenue is not recognized when it is earned, but rather only when the payment is received. Similarly, expenses are recognized when they are paid, not when they are incurred.

B. ACCRUAL BASIS
Accrual basis revenue is recognized in the accounts when the transaction occurs (when earned), regardless of the period in which the related cash is collected. Expenses are recognized and matched with the revenue of the period to which it relates, regardless of when it is paid.

C. MODIFIED ACCRUAL BASIS
Modified accrual basis is a compromise between the cash and accrual systems used by most governmental units. Revenues are recognized either when they are received in cash (e.g., licenses or fines) or when collection of the amounts can be reasonably estimated to be received in the near future (e.g., property taxes). Expenses are generally recognized in the period in which goods and services are received or a liability is incurred.

The accounting system must provide accurate and current financial reporting information. All accounting records and supporting documentation must maintain a clear audit trail.

The project must establish and maintain a system of internal accounting control adequate to safeguard grant assets, review the grant accounting and financial data for accuracy and reliability, and promote operational efficiency.

D. GENERAL LEDGER ACCOUNT STRUCTURE
Expenditures of grant funds must be recorded in categories which parallel the Grant Award:

All general ledger account entries must be supported by the subsidiary records and the original source documentation. The format of the subsidiary records is determined by the project. The project must be able to show with documentation (i.e., work sheet) that general ledger entries can be traced (reconciled) to the Invoice (BSCC Form 201).

12. MATCH / LEVERAGE REQUIREMENTS
Matching is cost sharing. Specifically, it means the portion of a grant project’s costs not covered by the awarded grant or same funding source. There are many types of match requirements, which vary across different agencies and grant awards. The required match is specified in the terms of the grant’s RFP and Grant Agreement. Grantees are responsible for reading and understanding the specific, applicable match requirement. Match can also be referenced as leveraged funds.

A. CASH MATCH
Cash match, also known as hard match, is income from a source other than grant funds that is budgeted for the project by the Grantee. When used to augment the project, cash expenditures for items such as personnel, facilities, and supplies may be considered cash match, if not in violation of the prohibition on supplanting. Grantees must maintain documentation to support the claimed cash match.

B. IN-KIND MATCH
In-kind match, also known as soft match, is the project’s contribution of non-cash outlay of materials or resources to support a percentage of the BSCC’s Grant Award activities. It may include non-cash outlay contributed by other public agencies and institutions, private organizations, and individuals. Examples include donated office supplies, equipment, professional services, and volunteer time. In general, the value of in-kind contributions is determined by fair market value. Grantees must maintain documentation to support the claimed in-kind match.

When the terms of the grant’s RFP and Grant Agreement allow for the use of volunteer services as in-kind contributions, additional measures should be followed to document the value of such services. Grantees should document actual time worked by using a time reporting system such as sign-in and sign-out sheets which are completed by the volunteer and contain the signed approval by the supervisor.

Another method is to use the volunteer staff schedule. Volunteer staff initial and indicate the days/hours worked and the supervisor signs and dates the schedules to indicate approval.

Grantees must maintain documentation to support the claimed hourly salary rate of the volunteer services. The rate claimed should be comparable to the rates for paid employees performing similar duties. Published rates will not be allowed unless Grantees can provide evidence that the rates are comparable.

The documentation should include duty statements for the volunteer positions and the comparable paid employee positions and information regarding the hourly salary rates paid to those particular employees. The hourly volunteer rates used, multiplied by the volunteer hours worked must total the dollar amount of the in-kind contributions. This calculation and the other referenced documentation should be maintained as part of the accounting records.

C. MATCH DOCUMENTATION
The BSCC requires Grantees to adequately document that their projects have provided and properly valued their matching contributions the same way Grantees must document their use of grant funds
D. MATCH CATEGORIES (ALLOWABLE / NON-ALLOWABLE)

1. Asset Forfeitures
Assets from federal or state forfeiture proceedings are an allowable match if permitted by the terms of the grant’s RFP and Grant Agreement.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 49 BSCC Grant Administration Guide

2. Matching State/Federal Funds with State/Federal Funds State and/or federal funds can be used to match other state and/or federal funds only if all of the following conditions have been met:
• The project obtains written approval from BSCC, or the terms of the program allow this practice;
• The federal funding source does not prohibit this practice as stated in 2 CFR § 200.306; and
• The funds are to be used for grant activities and be necessary for the project’s overall outcomes.

E. OVER MATCH
Unless otherwise specified, Grantees should not commit to a match percentage greater than the match percentage required in the RFP. After a Grantee’s proposed budget is approved, it becomes part of the Grant Agreement and as such is subject to all programmatic requirements, restrictions, and audit requirements. After the Grant Agreement is executed, the committed match percentage cannot be reduced.

F. TERMINATION OF THE GRANT AGREEMENT
If the Grantee fails to meet the match requirement or the amount committed by the Grantee for the grant, BSCC may withhold grant funds and/or terminate the Grant Award. Please see BSCC Grant Administration Guide – Section 19. Withholding or Disallowance of Grant Funds.

G. CALCULATING THE MATCH REQUIREMENT
The Match Requirement is calculated by two methods. The amount may be based either on the total project cost or on the percent of grant funds allocated to the project. The terms of the program or its authorizing legislation will specify which method will be used. If this is not the case, the match must be calculated using the total project cost method.

1. Match Based on Total Project Cost
To calculate the match requirement, subtract the required match percent from 100 percent (100%), divide the Grant Award amount by this difference to determine the total project cost, and then subtract the Grant Award amount (the BSCC allocation) to determine the match amount. The following example below demonstrates how to calculate the amount of a ten percent match (10%) on a $50,000 allocation, based on Total Project Cost.

Example 1
Grant Award Amount = $50,000
Divide $50,000 by .9 (100 minus 10 = 90) = $55,555 (Total Project Cost) Subtract Grant Award Amount = $50,000 (90%)
Required Match = $5,555 (10%)

2. Match Based on Percent of Funds Allocated
To calculate the match requirement, multiply the Grant Award amount (the BSCC allocation) by the required match percent. The example below demonstrates how to calculate the amount of a ten percent (10%) match on a $50,000 allocation, based on percent of funds allocated.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 50 July 2020
Example 2
Grant Award Amount = $50,000
Percent of Cash Match = 10%
Multiply $50,000 by .10 = $5,000 (Amount of match)
H. CHANGING THE TYPE OF MATCH
If the terms of the grant program allow for different types of match to be used, Grantees are allowed to change the type of match or leveraged funds included in the Grant Agreement once the grant budget has been approved. However, a Grantee must request the change by submitting the following forms to the BSCC:
• A completed Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1) indicating any applicable changes in the budget categories and a written narrative describing the changes to the type of match and justification for the changes. Revised RFP budget pages may also be required.

Note: Match amounts must be separately identified on the budget pages.

I. REPORTING
Reporting of expenditure of match contributions need not be made in exact proportion to the expenditure of grant funds. However, the full match contribution must be committed on Grantee invoices before the grant expires or is terminated in order to receive all funds expended.

Cash and in-kind amounts must be reported on the Grantee Invoice (BSCC Form 201), as the contributions to the project occur. The percentage of match contributions reported may vary from the budgeted match percentage. If the Grantee does not contribute the required or committed match by the end of the grant, the BSCC will invoice or withhold the Grantee for grant funds paid prior to the Grantee not meeting their match obligation.

Match Funds and related contributions reported on the Grantee Invoice must be identified in the accounting records (e.g., general ledger).

Example 3 below demonstrates how the Grantee would be invoiced, or payment withheld, on the Grantee’s final invoice if the Grantee did not contribute the required match by the end of the grant.

Example 3
Budgeted Grant Funds $500,000 Actual Grant Expenditures at end of Grant Cycle $425,000
Match Requirement x 10% Match Requirement x 10%
Required Match based on
Budgeted Grant Funds $50,000 Required Match based on Actual Expenditures $42,500 Actual Match Reported
at end of Grant Cycle $38,000
Maximum Grant Funds Allowable
based on Actual Match Reported
($38,000 / 10% required match)
$380,000
Amount to be Withheld or Returned to BSCC =
Actual Grant Expenditures minus Maximum Grant Funds Allowable or $425,000 - $380,000
$45,000
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 51 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
J. REPORTING MATCH CONTRIBUTIONS FOR ADVANCED PAYMENT GRANTS For grants that use the advanced payment option as outlined in the RFP, all Grantee obligations, including match, should be met prior to the release of any subsequent advance payments

13. PROJECT AND OTHER INCOME
Project Income Generated by the Use of State and/or Federal Funds: Any income you make from your award is considered project income. You can use project income to advance your program objectives or refund the income back to BSCC. Project income must be reported on the Financial Invoice (BSCC Form 201) in the box titled Project Income.

Types of project income may include the following:
• Client fees;
• Interest earned on advance payment of grant funds;
• Interest earned on generated income;
• Registration fees;
• Sale of publications, videos, and other project-generated materials; and • Asset seizures and forfeitures.

However, donations should not be considered project income. Grant funds cannot be used for organized fundraising.

Project income cannot be used to satisfy the match requirement unless specifically allowed in the terms of the program.

A. RECORDS OF RECEIPT AND DISPOSITION OF PROJECT INCOME Records of receipt and disposition of project income must be maintained in the same manner as required for grant funds. When project income is reported on the Financial Invoice (BSCC Form 201), the grantee must then provide an explanation on the Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1 located within the Invoice Workbook). The grantee will indicate how the income was earned and propose how it will be reallocated. If the proposal later changes, a separate modification request must be submitted. Unless additional restrictions on the disposition of project income are contained in the terms of the program, project income must be:
• Used by the project for a purpose that furthers the objectives of the project for which the grant was made, such as expanding the project, continuing the project, and obtaining equipment or other assets needed for the project; or
• Returned to BSCC.

B. INCOME EARNED BUT NOT USED DURING THE PROJECT
Unless otherwise stipulated in the award, any project income earned during the performance period but not used for the project must be refunded to the BSCC. The proportion that is refunded pertains to the ratio of federal/state funds participation as funded in the project. For example, if seventy-five percent (75%) of the grant is federal/state funds and the other twenty-five percent (25%) is from the Grantee, then seventy-five percent (75%) of the project income left at the end of the grant cycle must be refunded to BSCC and the Grantee retains the other twenty-five percent (25%). The BSCC will refund the project income to the appropriate state/federal agencies.

C. INTEREST INCOME
Interest income is defined as income earned on advances of grant funds. Interest income must be reported at the end of the funding year. The form and a check for the amount of interest income to be refunded should be attached to the final Invoice (BSCC Form 201). This does not apply to Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 52 July 2020
state agencies, including state institutions of higher education, state hospitals, or if otherwise specified in the terms of the program.

D. OTHER INCOME
In rare cases, a Grantee may receive a refund due to an over-estimate of the employer’s contribution to the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS), and the contribution has been charged to a grant as an employee benefit cost. If the overpayment refund is received within the grant’s funding cycle (even if the Grant Award period has ended), the Grantee may claim the refund as project income.

E. REQUESTING APPROVAL
Prior approval from BSCC is required for the use of project income. Grantees must submit in writing how the income was earned and how the project income will be used as directed in section A above. The program income must be used for the purposes and under the conditions of the RFP, Grant Agreement, or terms listed in the federal or state award.

14. AMENDMENTS, CHANGES, AND MODIFICATIONS
A. AMENDING THE GRANT AWARD

1. Definition of an Amendment
Amendments are changes to the Grant Agreement. Amendments are required in order to:
• Change the approved grant cycle, usually by extending the end date of the grant agreement;
• Change the Grant Award amount (increase or decrease); • Change the Grantee name;
The BSCC may require an amendment for a change not listed above. All amendments to Grant Agreements must be approved by the BSCC in writing.

2. Amending a Grant Agreement – General Requirements
A Grant Agreement Amendment (Form Std. 213A) and all applicable attachments must be completed by the BSCC, approved by both parties, and fully executed by obtaining original signatures from the person designated by the Grantee’s governing board and the authorized representative of the BSCC.

All amendments must be fully executed before the expiration of the grant agreement or end of the grant cycle.

If the written authorization from the governing board for the original Grant Agreement does not authorize amendments to the grant award, a new written authorization from the governing board must be obtained and made available for review upon request.

3. No-Cost Extensions
Grantees are required to complete their grant projects within the grant term listed in the Grant Agreement. If deemed necessary, no-cost extensions may be offered at the discretion of the BSCC.

A no-cost extension extends the grant cycle beyond the original project end date. As the phrase “no cost” suggests, no additional funding will be provided. The BSCC must obtain approval from its Board at a noticed board meeting before offering no-cost extensions to grantees, and all of the following conditions must apply:
• There is a programmatic need to continue the project, Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 53 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
• There are sufficient funds remaining to cover the extended effort, and • The funding source (e.g., state budget appropriation, federal budget appropriation, and/or terms and conditions of federal grants) allows for the continued expenditure of funds.

No-cost extensions require the execution of a formal Grant Agreement Amendment (Form Std. 213A). The BSCC may also require additional documentation.

4. Amendments to Increase or Decrease the Grant Award
Increases (augmentations) or decreases to the dollar amount of an award are initiated and approved by the BSCC.

Before initiating an increase to the award amount, the BSCC will consider:
• Availability of funds; and
• Programmatic and/or State need.

Before initiating a decrease to the award amount, the BSCC will consider:
• Failure to comply with grant requirements;
• Failure to meet program objectives and/or service goals; and • Availability of funds.

Grantees will be notified by the BSCC in writing if the BSCC deems it necessary to change the grant award amount for any reason.

All increases and decreases to grant award amounts require the execution of a formal Grant Agreement Amendment (Form Std. 213A), which is initiated by the BSCC but must be signed by the Grantee. In addition:
• Grantees must submit a Budget Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1). • Grantees must submit revised budget narrative pages.
• The BSCC may require additional documentation.

B. OTHER CHANGES / MODIFICATIONS TO THE GRANT PROJECT

1. Non-Substantive Changes
These are minor changes to a grant project, that do not affect the scope or objectives of a project and do not require amending the grant agreement. They may include but are not limited to:
• Modifications to the grant budget (Form 223.1 required) • Change in key personnel
• Change in project activities, that do not affect stated goals or objectives • Changes in operational agreements
• Changes to either physical or mailing address
Grantees must obtain approval from the BSCC before making any changes to their grant project. If you have questions, contact the Field Representative assigned to your grant.

2. Substantive Program Modifications
Substantive program modifications that affect the project scope, objectives, or specific program components are generally not allowed.

Substantive program modifications:
• Are not permissible for statutorily required program objectives; Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 54 July 2020
• Must be discussed, prior to submission, with your designated BSCC Field Representative. • Require a detailed narrative to explain why the change is necessary and what the outcome will be if the modification is not approved.
• Must be submitted to the BSCC by the Project Director. • Must show that the need to modify arose out of circumstances beyond the project's control, including but not limited to:
o Delays caused by acts of legislative or judicial bodies; o A strike which affects the performance of the project; or o Natural disasters affecting project performance.
• Must be approved by the BSCC in writing prior to the implementation of changes.

C. MODIFICATIONS TO THE GRANT BUDGET
A modification to the grant budget is any change to the approved budget that:
• Modifies narrative details within a budget line-item or category but does not change any budgeted dollar amounts.
• Modifies line-item dollar amounts by moving funds from one line-item or budget category to another but does not change the total grant award.
• Allocates earned project income to support approved, existing project activities.

With the exception of a project income allocation request, budget modifications that would cause the project to exceed the amount of the grant award identified in the Grant Agreement are not allowed.

1. Prior Approval
All Modification Requests require prior approval from the designated BSCC Field Representative.

If prior approval is not obtained, the grant reimbursement may be reduced by the amount of the unauthorized expenditure(s). Unauthorized expenditures may also result in audit issues.

2. Modification Request Procedures
Modification requests must be submitted on a Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1) and approved before related expenditures are reported (or ordered, contracted for, etc.) on a Financial Invoice (BSCC Form 201). Revised budget narratives may be required for approval.

3. Where to find the Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1) The Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1) is located within the Invoice Workbook.

Grantees can locate the Invoice Workbook for their grant on the BSCC website by clicking Grantee Invoicing under Quick Links on the Corrections Planning and Grant Programs (CPGP) Division page: http://www.bscc.ca.gov/s_cppgrantinvoicing/. Grant programs are listed alphabetically. Links to the Invoice Workbooks are located under each grant program heading.

4. Submitting the Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1) Detailed instructions for completing and submitting the Modification Request (BSCC Form 223.1) are located on the Instructions worksheet within the Grantee Invoice Workbook. Note:

It is helpful to print the instruction page for reference before completing the Modification Request.

The Modification Request is set up for automated submission.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 55 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
a) Enabling Macros
There are functions with the invoice workbook that require the use of macros. A macro is a series of commands and/or functions, such as calculations, that are embedded within the excel file. In most cases, Excel will prompt the user to enable macros. When this prompt appears, click "enable.”
Note: enabling macros for the invoice workbook will not compromise the security of the local system or the security of the agency's network. If the prompt to enable macros does not appear, contact your IT department to assist.
b) Microsoft Outlook
The submittal process relies on the configuration of Microsoft Outlook on a local computer.

If Microsoft Outlook is not available on the computer on which you are working, contact the assigned CPGP Program Analyst for technical assistance.

If you need further assistance with the modification process, including technical assistance, contact the BSCC Analyst assigned to your grant program.

15. GRANTEE PROJECT REPORTING
The BSCC is committed to measuring the results of grant programs by requiring the use of evaluation mechanisms, evaluation plans, progress reports, and final program evaluations.

Due dates and specific requirements for these reporting requirements may vary by grant program and funding source. Requirements are detailed in each grant RFP/RFA and in the grant contract.

Grantee acknowledges awareness of and the responsibility to complying with reporting requirements by signing the grant award agreement.

A. GUIDING PRINCIPLES - IMPLEMENTING EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES (EBP)

1. EBP Basic Principles
EBP emphasizes measurable outcomes and ensures that services and resources are actually effective. EBP consists of three basic principles:
• Evidence that the intervention is likely to work, i.e., produce a desired benefit; • Evidence that the intervention is being carried out as intended; and • Evidence that allows an evaluation of whether the intervention worked.

2. Embedding EBP into BSCC Grant Projects
Evidence-based practices with an emphasis on data-driven decision making are to be embedded in all BSCC grant projects whenever possible.

The principles of EBP call for an evaluation of all program activities in order to measure impact, i.e. outcomes. In addition, it is the responsibility of the BSCC to:
• Verify that grant money is well spent; and
• Use grant results to add to the body of knowledge regarding what works.

More information regarding EBP can be found on the BSCC website, www.bscc.ca.gov.

B. LOCAL EVALUATION PLAN
The purpose of the Local Evaluation Plan, or outline of the final project evaluation, is to ensure programs funded by the BSCC can be evaluated. Refer to the appropriate RFP/RFA for program specific requirements. At a minimum, local evaluation plans shall:
• Clearly state project goals and objectives;
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 56 July 2020
• Describe project components, program activities, and evidence-based practices that will used; • Provide information regarding process and outcome evaluations; • Describe outcome variables that will be measured; and • Describe the evaluation design or model that will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the project component(s).

C. QUARTERLY PROGRESS REPORTS
Quarterly progress reports serve a vital function in the success of the grant program. They are necessary to:
• Document the project’s progress toward meeting goals and objectives in accordance with the terms of the program;
• Provide a mechanism by which the Grantee can identify issues and need for technical assistance: and
• Provide the BSCC with updates on the process evaluation, as stated in the local evaluation plan.

Progress reporting periods and due dates are specified in the Exhibit A: Scope of Work of the program’s grant contract. Failure to submit a report on time may result in the withholding or disallowance of grant payments, the reduction or termination of grant funds, and/or the denial of future grant funding.

Grantees must have the ability to collect the specified program activity data (e.g. number of participants, events, etc.) and report it to the BSCC on quarterly progress reports during the term of the grant performance period.

The report form and instructions are available to grantees on the BSCC’s website.

D. LOCAL EVALUATION REPORT
The purpose of the Local Evaluation Report is to determine whether the overall program (including each project component) was effective. Final reports vary by grant program, but at a minimum will:
• Include an Executive Summary
• Restate project goals and objectives
• Assess and document the effectiveness of the activities that were implemented within each individual project component, and as identified in the Local Evaluation Plan. • Describe the evaluation design or model, as laid out in the local evaluation plan, including process and outcome variables;
• Provide in-depth discussions of the final outcomes of the program (for each individual project component), and include a determination of the degree of effectiveness and/or ineffectiveness; and
• Provide a conclusion.

E. SOURCE DOCUMENTATION
Funded projects are required to participate in data collection and submit all required reports.

Grantees must keep accurate records as source documentation to support the information reported in the Progress Report.

Project records must be retained by the project for at least three years from the end of the grant award period. During programmatic monitoring and site visits, the BSCC will review these records for accuracy and compare that data to the progress reports submitted by the project.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 57 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
Projects are to retain source documentation for progress reports on a quarterly basis, regardless of submission requirements. The progress reports provide project staff and BSCC with a formal process to document ongoing grant activities and project progress toward the achievement of stated program goals. All progress reports are reviewed by Program Specialists and retained in the project’s award file at BSCC.

Review of Records: Acceptance of a grant obligates the project to allow employees and/or authorized representatives of the BSCC unrestricted access to inspect, copy, and audit all pertinent books, documents, papers, and records, including redacted confidential records.

16. AUDIT REQUIREMENTS AND AUDIT REPORTS
A. GENERAL
Audits are conducted to determine the fiscal integrity of financial transactions and reports, as well as compliance with laws, regulations, and administrative requirements.

All BSCC grantees, federal and state funded, are subject to the audit requirements set forth in their grant agreement and are subject to conditions of fiscal, program, and general administration to which grantees expressly agree upon accepting a grant award and signing a grant agreement.

Grantees that expend $750,000 or more in federal awards in a fiscal year must have a single or program specific audit. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Guidance for Grants & Agreements - 2 CFR §200.500 provides guidance on federal audit requirements, process and determining federal funds expended. A link is provided at the end of this section.

1. Are You Subject to a Federal Audit?
Yes, if during a state fiscal year:
1) A grantee expends $750,000 or more in federal awards - cumulative from all federalfunded sources - the grantee must have a single audit conducted for that year. 2) A grantee expends $750,000 or more in federal awards under only one federal program (excludes Research and Development) and the federal statutes, regulations, terms and conditions do not require a financial statement audit, the grantee may elect to have a program-specific audit. (See OMB 2 CFR Part 200 §200.507 Program Specific Audits.) No, if during a state fiscal year:
3) A grantee expends less than $750,000 in federal awards - cumulative from all federalfunded sources - the grantee is exempt from the federal audit requirements for that year. 4) Your BSCC grant agreement is funded exclusively through state funds – no Federal funds.

2. Are You Subject to a State Audit?
Refer to your Grant Agreement. You are subject to an audit for your state-funded grant award only when it is specifically set forth in the Grant Agreement.

3. Are You Subject to a BSCC Audit?
Yes, all BSCC grantees are subject to a BSCC audit as stated in the Grant Agreement. The BSCC will let you know if it requires that you submit a BSCC Audit.

4. Audits and Access to Records
The grantee agrees that the BSCC, the U.S. Federal Government, the California State Auditor, the California Department of Finance – Office of State Audits & Evaluations, the California State Controller’s Office, or their designated representative(s) shall have the right to review and to copy any records and supporting documentation pertaining to the performance of the Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 58 July 2020
grant agreement. Grantee agrees to maintain and provide access to such records for purposes of examination and audit for a period of three (3) years from the end of the grant agreement, unless a longer period of record retention is stipulated. Grantee agrees to allow the auditor(s) access to such records during normal business hours and to allow interviews of any employees and subcontractors who might reasonably have information related to such records
B. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR FEDERAL AUDIT REQUIREMENTS

1. Audit Periods and Grant Cycles
The audit period is the period of time examined in the single or program specific audit. For most BSCC grants, the audit period is the state fiscal year, July 1 through June 30. For a multi-year grant, an audit is required for each grant year or performance period.

The grant cycle may differ from the audit period. For example, a grant may run in a calendar year while the single audit cycle runs on a fiscal year. The table below illustrates all audit reports and due dates for a two-year grant that runs calendar year.

Grant Cycle January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022
Date Range Applicable Single Audit Reports (SAR) Due to SCO Due to BSCC 1/1/20 - 6/30/20 SAR 1 Year Ended June 30, 2020 3/31/21 4/30/21 7/1/20 - 6/30/21 SAR 2 Year Ended June 30, 2021 3/31/22 4/30/22 7/1/21 - 6/30/22 SAR 3 Year Ended June 30, 2022 3/31/23 4/30/23 7/1/22 - 12/31/22 SAR 4 Year Ended June 30, 2023 3/31/24 4/30/24

2. Audit Costs
The costs of audits required by, and performed in accordance with, the Single Audit Act are allowable. If the costs are not already included in a grantee’s indirect cost rate, then the cost should be prorated and charged to the grant as an administrative cost based on the ratio of all of the grantee’s federal grants that are being audited for that same SAR.

Unless otherwise set forth in the grant agreement, grantees who are exempt from federal audit threshold requirement may not charge audit costs to the grant.

3. Submission of the Federal Audit Report
Local government grantees: Independent auditors prepare and file Single Audit reports on behalf of local governments to the California State Controller’s Office (SCO) according to the State Administrative Manual (SAM) Section – 20070.

Got to https://www.sco.ca.gov/aud_single_audits.html for more information on submission requirements to SCO.

Non-governmental and Community Based Organization grantees: Grantees who meet the Single Audit threshold are required to submit Single Audit Reporting package online to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC). To review the FAC submission requirements please visit:
https://harvester.census.gov/facweb/.

Due to BSCC: Generally, grantees must provide electronic copies of audit reports to the BSCC within 30 days of the grantee’s receipt of the audit report or by the due date listed in the grant agreement.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 59 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
Failure to submit an audit: A grantee that willfully fails to submit an audit as required may be deemed ineligible for future BSCC grant funds pending compliance with the audit requirements of the grant in question.

4. Grantee Responsibility for Subcontractors’ Audit Requirements When grantees make subawards to subcontractors:
1) the grantee is responsible for making sure that subcontractors comply with all audit requirements per 2 CFR §200.331(f).
2) If the subcontractor’s agreement does not require an audit, or meet the Federal threshold, the grantee is still responsible for monitoring the subcontractor’s activities to provide reasonable assurance that the subcontractor administers the Federal awards in compliance with the Federal conditions.

5. BSCC Audit Review - Findings and Resolution
1) When an audit is required, BSCC staff reviews the audit report only for findings pertaining directly to the federal grant programs that the BSCC administers. 2) If there are no findings related to BSCC funded programs noted in the audit report, the official grant file is noted as compliant with the audit submission requirements for that year. 3) If findings are identified, the designated BSCC Field Representative will follow up with the grantee to determine an appropriate action plan to resolve any issues. 4) Upon resolution, the official grant file is noted as compliant with the audit submission requirements for that year.

6. State Controller’s Office Audit Findings and Resolution The State Controller’s Office (SCO):
• Follows up on general findings such as those relating to internal controls. • Reviews and monitors the audit reports issued by external independent auditors and determines whether or not the audit reports conform to Government Auditing Standards. • Distributes copies of audit report and corrective action plan to state entities affected by audit findings.
• Coordinates with the BSCC, when needed, to determine what follow up action is needed to close out any audit findings.

Go to https://www.sco.ca.gov/aud_audit_finding_follow_up.html for more information on SCO’s audit follow up process.

7. The Single Audit / Program Specific Audit Process
The audit process encompasses:
• The examination of a grantee’s financial records and statements; • Federal award transactions and expenditures;
• The general management of the grantee’s operations;
• The systems of internal control; and
• The financial assistance agreement received during the audit period.

An audit-reporting package includes:
• Financial statements
• A schedule of expenditure of federal funds,
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 60 July 2020
• Auditor reports,
• A schedule of findings and questioned costs, and
• A corrective action plan, if applicable.

8. Scope of Audit
The Single Audit is divided into two areas: compliance and financial. The compliance component of the Single Audit covers the study and understanding (planning stage) as well as the testing and evaluation (examination stage) of the grantee with respect to Federal award usage, operations, and compliance with laws and regulations. In the financial component of the audit, the auditor must determine whether the financial statements of the auditee are presented fairly in all material respects and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. See Section 2 CFR §200.514.

All audits performed shall be made by an independent auditor (i.e., qualified state or local government auditors or an independent public accountant licensed by the State of California).

When obtaining audit services, the objective is to obtain high-quality audits as defined in Section 2 CFR §200.509.

9. Audit Standards
The independent auditor must conduct the audit in accordance with the requirements in 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart F, the Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAGAS), and in 2 CRF §200.Appendix XI-Compliance Supplement.

10. Audit Objectives
The audit objective is to review the grantee’s accountability of funds and required non-Federal contributions to determine whether the grantee has done all of the following:
• Established an accounting system with adequate internal controls that provide full accountability for revenues, expenditures, assets, and liabilities; • Prepared financial statements which are presented fairly and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP);
• Submitted financial reports (Federal Financial Reports, cash reports, and claims for advances and reimbursements) that contain accurate and reliable financial data and are presented in accordance with the terms of applicable agreements; and, • Expended Federal funds in accordance with the terms of grant agreements and those provisions of Federal law or regulations that could have a material effect on the financial statements or on the awards tested.

17. GRANTEE MONITORING AND OVERSIGHT
The Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) Corrections Planning and Grant Programs (CPGP) Division provides a variety of oversight activities in grant administration in an effort to fulfill the administrative, fiduciary and programmatic contractual obligations and mandates of each grant funding stream, both federal and state monies. These activities include:
• Comprehensive Monitoring Visit (CMV)
• Initial Monitoring Visit
• Technical Assistance Monitoring Visit
• Compliance Improvement Plan (CIP) Follow-up Monitoring Visit • Closeout Monitoring Visit
• Special Event - Monitoring
A. COMPREHENSIVE MONITORING VISIT
Purpose
A Comprehensive Monitoring Visit (CMV) is an on-site assessment of the administrative, fiscal, and programmatic components of a BSCC-funded project. The resulting Comprehensive Monitoring Visit Report (CMVR) provides a detailed review of the project and identifies, in limited scope, areas in which the project is and is not in compliance with the terms of the program, laws, Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 62 July 2020
and regulations. Each grant project will receive a CMV at least once during the applicable grant cycle.

1. Comprehensive Monitoring Visit Procedures
BSCC staff will contact the Project Director to set a mutually agreeable date for the CMV. A letter and/or email to the Project Director and Financial Officer will follow to confirm the CMV of the grant and time period to be monitored, and to document the agreed upon date of the monitoring visit. The individual(s) responsible for preparing the Invoice (BSCC Form 201), the progress report, and the oversight of grant-related activity should be available during the monitoring visit to answer questions.

The CMVR template and general monitoring expectations will be provided to the Grantee prior to the monitoring visit to assist the Grantee prepare.

The BSCC will review findings with the Grantee during the course of the monitoring, as well as at the end of the visit during an exit interview.

Exceptions to these standard procedures may occur on a case-by-case basis per assigned lead BSCC Field Representative.

2. Comprehensive Monitoring Visit Requirements and Access to Records Projects are monitored for compliance with the applicable laws, regulations, policies and program requirements.

Acceptance of the Grant Agreement obligates the project to allow BSCC staff and/or its authorized representatives unrestricted access to all project books, documents, papers, and records, (including redacted confidential records) for inspection, copying, monitoring, and auditing. BSCC reserves the right to conduct unannounced monitoring visits.

3. Scope of Monitoring
The BSCC monitoring process complies with the intent of federal and state requirements. The process assesses programmatic, administrative, and fiscal components of the project. The review of fiscal components is not an audit and cannot be used to replace BSCC audit requirements.

4. Comprehensive Monitoring Visit Report
The CMVR is a useful tool that helps guide the Grantee in the successful implementation and maintenance of their project. The CMVR provides a summary of the areas reviewed and identifies whether or not those areas are in compliance with applicable requirements. The BSCC will provide the CMVR to the Grantee generally 60 to 90 days after completion of the monitoring. CMVRs with significant findings will be provided to the Grantee within 30 days.

The Grantee should maintain the letter and report within the official grant file. a) No Findings Identified
If no findings are identified in the monitoring report, the monitoring process is complete. b) Significant Findings Identified
If significant findings are identified in the CMVR, the Grantee must submit a Compliance Improvement Plan (CIP) within 30 calendar days of the date of the receipt of the CMVR.

CIP instructions and submission information will be provided by BSCC staff. Extensions may be granted by BSCC staff on a case-by-case basis.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 63 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
c) Compliance Improvement Plan (CIP)
The Compliance Improvement Plan (CIP) is viewed by the BSCC as a constructive, strengthening process for Grantees. Generally, monitoring findings do not affect the Grantee’s funding if a CIP is implemented.

The Grantee is responsible for developing a CIP to respond to the findings identified in the CMVR, including dates for implementation. Grantees may obtain the help of BSCC staff in CIP development. The plan must be implemented, and the deficiencies resolved in a reasonable timeframe from the CMVR date.

After BSCC verifies that all CIP activities have been implemented, a letter will be sent notifying the project that all required actions are completed. The Grantee should maintain the CIP letter and corresponding documentation on file within the official grant file.

5. Corrective Action Process
In a rare circumstance when a problem cannot be resolved thru a CIP process, the matter may be elevated to the BSCC’s Executive Director for further disposition or Board review.

6. Disputed Findings
If the Grantee does not agree with any finding in the CMVR or believes a CIP is not required, then the CIP response provided by the Grantee shall include an explanation and specific reasons to support the Grantee’s position that the findings are in error. BSCC staff will work with the Grantee to resolve the dispute.

7. Sanctions
If the project does not complete the required activities in the CIP, BSCC may take action as appropriate including, but not limited to:
• Withhold or reduce the amount of any payments requested by the project on an invoice (BSCC Form 201);
• Reduce the amount of the current Grant Agreement; or
• Terminate the current Grant Agreement, after providing 14 calendar days written notice to the project (unless BSCC determines that good cause exists to waive the 14 calendar day notice).

B. COMPLIANCE IMPROVEMENT PLAN FOLLOW-UP MONITORING VISIT Purpose
The purpose of the Compliance Improvement Plan (CIP) Follow-up Monitoring Visit is to provide additional technical assistance and to verify implementation of the Plan. Typically, issues will be resolved via the CIP; however, the Program Lead may conduct an on-site visit, as needed.

As indicated above, after BSCC verifies that all CIP activities have been implemented, a letter will be sent notifying the project that all required actions are completed. The Grantee should maintain the letter within the official grant file.

C. INITIAL MONITORING VISIT
Purpose
The purpose of the Initial Monitoring Visit is to build relationships with the project staff, stakeholders/partners, and provide high-level evaluation of the project’s infrastructure to include support areas such as
• Financial;
• Data;
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 64 July 2020
• Referrals;
• Subcontracting; and
• Hiring.

Newly funded grant projects may receive an initial site visit prior to receiving a CMV, as determined by the BSCC staff and informed by the GPAT.

D. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE MONITORING VISIT
Purpose
• A Technical Assistance Monitoring Visit is to make an on-site assessment of current project conditions, follow up on previous issues, respond to a Grantee request for a visit, and/or in response to complaints lodged. Technical Assistance Monitoring Visit activities may include, but not limited to, the following: Provide information that will assist the project in meeting program goals;
• Review project objectives to determine if they are achievable; • Review project activities to determine if they will reasonably result in achievement of the objectives;
• Review the project’s source documentation and data collection process; • Review the project's Invoice (BSCC Form 201), to determine whether any adjustments are needed;
• Discuss the monitoring visit processes with project staff so they know what to expect during future visits;
• Review the progress reports to determine if they are complete and accurate; and • Review terms of the program with the Grantee.

E. CLOSEOUT MONITORING VISIT (AS NEEDED)
Purpose
The purpose of an optional Closeout Monitoring Visit is to review outcomes and project achievements, conduct exit interviews, and assess sustainability. Often Closeout activities are performed via correspondence or telephone. In all cases, a Closeout Letter will be sent to the projects once all requirements have been met and subsequent to all payments to Grantees.

F. SPECIAL EVENT – MONITORING
Purpose
This “Monitoring” may include site visits at the request from the Grantee for special functions.

These visits may include:
• Participant graduations;
• Award ceremonies;
• Press Conferences; or
G. DESK REVIEWS – FISCAL OVERSIGHT
The desk review is an assessment of the fiscal components of a grant project funded through a BSCC RFA or RFP process. Fiscal desk reviews are completed by CPGP Program Analysts.

Upon completion of a fiscal desk review the Grantee will be provided with an email or letter informing them of the outcome. In the event a fiscal desk review identifies a concern the Field Representative and Manager will be informed and will provide direction for resolution. The record of each outcome will be filed in the grant project file.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 65 BSCC Grant Administration Guide

1. Desk Review Frequency
Each grant project will receive multiple fiscal desk reviews during the grant cycle. At a minimum, two desk reviews per year will occur in the first 24-months of the grant cycle. A minimum of one desk review per year will occur in subsequent years as applicable. A fiscal desk review may be completed at any time at the request of a Field Representative or Management.

2. Components of a Fiscal Desk Review
a) Notification
Grantees will be notified by CPGP Program Analyst when they have been selected to receive a fiscal desk review. The notification will include forms and instructions regarding the documentation the Grantee must submit to substantiate the amounts claimed on a specified invoice, e.g., worksheets, invoices, receipts, and other related documents. b) Analysis
Submitted documentation will be analyzed by program and fiscal staff to assess compliance with grant program requirements and other applicable standards. c) Findings
• No concerns identified: a draft response is prepared by the CPGP Program Analyst and reviewed and approved by a Manager.
• Concerns identified: the CPGP Program Analyst informs the Field Representative and Manager. The Field Representative and Manager develop an initial response and direction for resolution.
d) Response
• No concerns identified: Grantee will receive the approved response and the grant file will be updated.
• Concerns identified: the CPGP Program Analyst will provide the Grantee with the initial response, and the CPGP Program Analyst and Manager will continue to track for resolution.

3. Fiscal Desk Review Findings
When concerns are identified the BSCC will work with the Grantee to reach resolution. The Grantee is responsible for resolving the issue but BSCC is available for technical assistance as needed. Generally, review findings do not affect the Grantee’s funding if corrective action is implemented as agreed. However, failure to respond to the BSCC’s request for resolution may result in disallowed cost, withholding of grant funds, or denial of subsequent grant awards.

4. Questioned or Disallowed Costs Identified in a Fiscal Desk Review When costs are questioned or recommended for disallowance, and the Grantee cannot support the costs claimed through original source documents and general ledger entries, BSCC will provide an opportunity for the Grantee to substantiate the expenditure.

In cases where the expenditure cannot be substantiated, the BSCC will invoice for the disallowances and the Grantee will be required to return the funds. While the matter is under review, the BSCC may place a hold on grant funds.

5. Invoice for Repayment
The Grantee will be invoiced for costs disallowed by BSCC. The Grantee must pay the invoiced amount within 30 calendar days from the invoice date. If full payment of disallowed Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 66 July 2020
costs causes an undue hardship to the project, the Grantee may submit a written request to the BSCC to pay under a specified payment schedule. The term of the payment schedule shall not exceed a 12-month period, unless otherwise authorized by the BSCC.

6. Sanctions for Nonpayment
If the Grantee does not comply or is delinquent in complying with the payment requirements imposed by BSCC, a hold may be placed on any funds due to the project and/or full amount of disallowed costs owed will be due and payable. BSCC may take additional action, as appropriate, including, but not limited to, denying future grants and reducing the amount of any payments requested by the project on an invoice.

18. RECORDS
Agencies are required to maintain accurate, complete, orderly, and separate records for each BSCCfunded grant. All grant records and documents must be adequately protected from fire, theft or other damage or loss. If an agency does not store their records at the project’s principal office, then the agency must maintain a written index of the records and ensure that the files can be readily accessed.

A. AUDITS/MONITORING
All project books, documents, papers, and records relating to the project must be accessible to the BSCC or its authorized representatives, and in the case of projects receiving federal funds, the Comptroller General of the United States (or authorized representatives), for inspection and audit.

B. RETENTION AND REVIEW REQUIREMENT
All grant records must be retained for three years from the end of the state and/or federal award period. Check your contract or contact your Program Analyst for your award end date. If the Grantee’s source documentation records are retained in a database system, it must cover the entire grant cycle and be retrievable. If an audit, investigation, review, litigation, or any other action occurs during the Grantee’s three-year retention period, the Grantee shall retain the records until the resolution of such process, or until the end of the three-year period, whichever is longer.

C. DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS

1. Fiscal
The retention requirement extends to books of original entry, source documents, supporting accounting transactions, the general ledger, subsidiary ledgers, personnel and payroll records, canceled checks, and related documents and records.

2. Bank Statements and Reconciliation
Each month the cash balance shown in the accounting records (e.g., general ledger and/or cash disbursements register) should be reconciled with the cash balance shown on the bank statement.

3. General Ledger Account Entries
All general ledger account entries for revenues and expenditures must be supported by subsidiary records, the original source documentation, canceled checks, and bank statements. If the bank does not return canceled checks, a check stub, or an electronic copy of the front and back of the cancelled check must be retained. Source documentation includes invoices, bills, and vouchers. The format of subsidiary records is determined by the project.

Grantees must be able to trace the general ledger entries to the Invoice (BSCC Form 201).

Grantees can use worksheets to document how expenditures are taken from the general ledger and recorded on the Invoice (BSCC Form 201).

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 67 BSCC Grant Administration Guide

4. Duplicate Deposit Receipts
The Grantee must maintain copies of the deposit receipts. The receipts must show the source of the receipt (e.g., BSCC, county, city, United Way, donations) and filed with the applicable bank statement.

5. Canceled Checks
Canceled checks are checks written by the Grantee for the project that have been processed by a bank. Each month canceled checks must be reconciled with the bank statements. If a bank does not return canceled checks, an electronic copy, or the check stub must be used.

6. Vouchers
Vouchers include the following:
• Purchase orders;
• Receiving reports which show the items which are received from the vendor; and • Vendor invoices. When invoices are paid, they must be marked as PAID with the check number to prevent the likelihood of paying the same invoice twice.

7. Programmatic
The records retention requirement extends to supporting documentation, statistical records and all other records pertinent to Grant Awards or contracts under grant-funded projects.

Grantees must retain source documents that substantiate information on required BSCC reports that include:
• Progress Reports;
• Grant Award Modifications (BSCC Form -223);
• Evaluation Data Reports; and
• Any other records the BSCC directs the project to maintain.

D. PAYROLL RECORDS

1. Functional Time Sheets
All grant-funded personnel who are directly charged to the grant (or listed as match) either in whole or in part must maintain time cards/sheets that: 1) indicate the actual time worked on each BSCC project and activity (on a daily basis); and 2) account for all the time worked by the employee during the pay period. Timecards/sheets must be signed by the employee and their supervisor and should be customized to capture the various activities performed by the employee/organization. Contact your Program Specialist for examples that may be used to assist in the development of an appropriate time reporting tool.

2. Personnel Payroll Files
Personnel payroll files should include the following:
• W-2, W-4;
• Personnel action forms (i.e., approved pay rates by the board of directors or appropriate personnel agency, promotions, terminations, etc.);
• Cumulative earnings records;
• Leave records;
• Employee authorized deduction forms (i.e., health insurance); and • Paid invoices submitted by employees for reimbursement of benefit expenses.

G. COMMUNICATIONS
Grantees must maintain a current telephone number and internet access with an e-mail address, as well as a current postal address and physical location within the State of California.

19. WITHHOLDING OR DISALLOWANCE OF GRANT FUNDS
A. WITHHOLDING OR DISALLOWANCE OF GRANT FUNDS
The BSCC may withhold grant funds and/or disallow expenditures if the Grantee fails to comply with the terms or conditions of the Grant Agreement or this Grant Guide. This may include the following:
• Failure to submit the required progress reports in a timely manner; • Failure to submit the final reports from previous BSCC grants in a timely manner; • Failure to resolve interim or final audit exceptions on past or current grants in a timely manner;
Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 July 2020 Page 69 BSCC Grant Administration Guide
• Inadequate maintenance of accounting records;
• Failure to submit proof of bond coverage in a timely manner; • Failure to cooperate with or admit BSCC staff or other federal or state representatives to review program and/or fiscal records;
• Failure to repay or rectify costs that have been identified as ineligible for grant funding; • Failure to adhere to the payment terms in the Grant Agreement; • Failure to provide the required match or leveraged share of the actual total project costs; • Failure to meet prescribed assurances, commitments, recording, accounting, auditing, and reporting requirements of the Grant Agreement;
• Substantial alteration of the scope of the grant project without prior written approval of the BSCC; or
• Refusal or inability to complete the grant project in a manner consistent with the terms, conditions, and program requirements outlined in the RFP (or Request for Application (RFA)), Application for Funding, Grant Agreement and all Exhibits, Attachments, Appendices, and approved modifications.

B. REDUCTION OR TERMINATION OF GRANT FUNDS
The BSCC may reduce or terminate grant funds as set forth in the terms and conditions of the Grant Agreement or for any reason that may include the following:
• If the Grantee fails to comply with any term or condition of the Grant Agreement; or, • If during the term of the Grant Agreement, the state and/or federal funds appropriated for the purposes of the Grant Award are reduced or eliminated by the California Legislature or by the United States Government, or, in the event revenues are not collected at the level appropriated, the BSCC may immediately terminate or reduce the Grant Agreement.

Should the BSCC deem it necessary to reduce or terminate grant funds, the BSCC shall notify the Grantee in writing. No such termination or reduction shall apply to allowable costs already incurred by the Grantee to the extent that state or federal funds are available for payment of such costs.

C. DENIAL OF FUTURE FUNDING
The BSCC reserves the right to consider the denial of future funding to any project and its officers based on its failure to comply with any term or condition of a current or previous Grant Award, poor past performance in a previous Grant Award, or failure to cooperate with state or federal auditors/monitors.

A denial of an application for funding or for future funding shall not become final until the applicant has been afforded reasonable notice and an opportunity for a timely and fair hearing. Hearings for denial shall be conducted by an impartial hearing officer whose decision shall be final.

20. CLOSEOUT
The closeout of a grant is the process by which a grant or agency determines that all applicable administrative actions and all required grant activities have been completed by the Grantee. BSCC staff will notify Grantees a minimum of 30 days before the end of the grant cycle to initiate the closeout process. When all administrative and fiscal requirements have been met, Grantees will receive a Final Notice of Project Closeout.

Docusign Envelope ID: 46EA8BB8-EB5B-4B7D-B3CC-653B75EB1AC2 BSCC Grant Administration Guide Page 70 July 2020
A. LOCAL EVALUATION REPORT
The Local Evaluation Report encompasses the entire grant cycle. Final payment on the grant may be withheld until the report has been submitted. This report is due to the BSCC on the due date specified in the Grant Agreement. Information about the final report can be found in Section

15. B. FINAL PROGRESS REPORT
Progress reporting periods and due dates are specified in the Exhibit A: Scope of Work of the grant contract. Failure to submit the final report may result in the withholding or disallowance of grant payments, the reduction or termination of grant funds, and/or the denial of future grant funding.

C. FINAL REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT
All expenses must have been encumbered prior to the Grant Award end date. The only “unpaid obligation” that may be listed is the audit expense. Unless otherwise noted in the grant agreement, the Grantee must submit the Final Invoice (BSCC Form 201) no later than 60 calendar days after the end of the grant cycle. If the Grantee does not submit a final invoice, the BSCC may consider the last invoice submitted as the final invoice and close out the Grant Award. Once BSCC has processed the final invoice, the grant will be closed, and no further payment can be made against the grant.

D. REPORTING REQUIRED MATCH
If your grant award has a required match, it must be reported on the invoice (Form BSCC 201) as the expenditures occur and before the grant ends. If the Grantee does not expend the total required match by the end of the grant cycle, or if it is not fully reported by the final invoice, the BSCC will invoice the Grantee for funds allocated that did not meet their match.

E. RETENTION OF RECORDS
All records relating to the grant shall be retained in accordance with Section 18.

F. AUDITS CLOSEOUT
Audits must be completed and submitted in accordance with Section 16.

You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you.

On May 5, 2025, City Council approved the City of Bakersfield’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Action Plan for the Department of Housing Urban Development (HUD), which describes activities to be funded with the City’s HUD entitlement grant funding. As part of that process, council approved the Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funding to the following organizations to assist in emergency shelter, rapid rehousing, and homelessness prevention activities:

The above-mentioned service providers have nearly 150 years of combined experience in providing services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness. These organizations benefit the community by offering various types of assistance. Service provider ESG program activities include: Homelessness Prevention, Rapid Rehousing, and Emergency Shelter services. These activities support individuals and families experiencing homelessness or those at risk of homelessness.

Emergency Shelter services operate 24 hours a day, offering safe and habitable space to individuals experiencing homelessness as well as survivors of intimate partner violence, who are served through victim service providers. Homelessness Prevention efforts focus on assisting families and individuals who are at imminent risk of losing their permanent housing by providing housing stabilization services, and other supportive resources aimed at preventing homelessness.

Rapid Rehousing programs provide short-term rental assistance and supportive services to families and individuals who have recently become homeless, helping them to quickly regain stable housing.

FROM: Phillip Burns, Development Services Director
DATE: February 20, 2026
SUBJECT: Final Map and Improvement Agreement with Deertrail Abbey Court 1, LLC for Tract 6939 Phase 2.

Developer is requesting to enter into an agreement so the final map for Tract 6939 Phase 2 located southeast corner of South Fairfax Road and Redbank Road can be approved and recorded (Ward 1).

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends approval of the Final Map, and Improvement Agreement.

BACKGROUND:

Per Bakersfield Municipal Code Chapter 16, “Subdivisions," Tentative Tract Map 6939 was conditioned by the Planning Commission to require the construction of certain improvements within and adjacent to the tentative tract map, which include, but are not limited to, streets, sewer, walls, and storm drain on or adjacent to the property being subdivided. If these improvements are not completed when the developer, Deertrail Abbey Court 1, LLC wishes to record a portion of the tentative tract map (through a final map), the developer must execute an improvement agreement through which the developer agrees to complete the construction of the improvements within one year of the date the agreement is executed. The City Engineer may extend the time to complete the improvements upon request. Certificates of Occupancy or final inspections will not be allowed for any building within the bounds of the final map until these required improvements are completed and accepted by the City of Bakersfield and a Notice of Completion for the improvements is recorded.

The Public Works Department has completed the review of the final map submitted by the Developer and is recommending that the Council approve the map. In addition, the Improvement Agreement outlining the Developer’s responsibilities for onsite infrastructure improvements, which typically accompanies approval of the final map, is also included and recommended for approval.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There will be no financial impact to the City. Proposed street improvements are being bonded for and included within the proposed improvement agreement.

COUNCIL GOAL:

Reliable Infrastructure
