Requiring 20% of
Federal Block Grant funds be set aside for the most vulnerable communities
and 12% be set aside
for Indian nations, tribes and bands limits the amount of funding available
for the purposes for which they are
currently being used. If the remaining 68% of Federal Block Grant funds are
not sufficient to accomplish those
purposes, or the purposes and programs are not modified to acccount for a
reduction in expenditures, General Fund
appropriations may be needed to supplement the federal resources. |
