6.1.C. - Page 1 To the Honorable Mayor and City Cou nci I From the City Manager May 23, 2011 SUBJECT Second Amendment for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2010-2011 After School Program Services Agreement between the City of Redwood City and the Redwood City Elementary School District RECOMMENDATION Ratify by motion and authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the Second Amendment for the FY2010-2011 After School Program Services Agreement between the City and the Redwood City Elementary School District: BAC KG RO U N D The Parks, Recreation and Community Services (PRCS) Department operates After School Learning Centers at seven school sites in Redwood City and the North Fair Oaks Area in partnership with the Redwood City School District (RCSD). These schools include: Fair Oaks, Selby Lane, Garfield, Ford, Hoover, Hawes and John Gill. Services include after school tutoring, recreation and enrichment programming such as life skills and family education opportunities. The majority of funding for the programs come from State and Federal grants managed by the District. This year, the PRCS Department is serving nearly 1,000 children each day at the school sites. This is made possible from two grants: the After-School Education and Safety Grant (ASES) and the 21 St Century Grant. The First Amendment that Council approved was on March 7, 2011. During the current school year, PRCS facilitated a meeting with one of our key partners, the Boys and Girls Club of the Peninsula (BGCP) and representatives from Redwood City 2020, and the RCSD to discuss efficiencies of service delivery. Collectively, we determined that the duplication of program coordination at one of our after school sites (Taft School) was not a good use of resources. PRCS was able to move our Program Coordinator from Taft School to Henry Ford School and serve children there, while the BGCP Program Coordinator remained at Taft and expanded the program. As a result, more kids are served, and two amendment approvals are required to complete the process. This Second Amendment enables an increase in fees to be paid back to the City in the amount of $27,860 for a total reimbursement of a not-to-exceed amount of$871,185.05.
