State Subsidy assistance for FY07 of $4,692,966 includes funds to cover the <br />increase in established rates for child care effective 10/1/06. Cabarrus County Partnership for <br />Children received additional Smart Start Funding for FY07 and increased the agency's <br />allocation for child care to $913,384. <br /> <br />For the past several months, we have been removing children from the waiting list as a result of <br />the increased funding. As of 9/30/06, 100 children on the waiting list had been offered child <br />care services. We will continue to monitor our spending rate to assure that we are on target to <br />spend the authorized funds. <br /> <br />The budget amendment and Child Care Funding Authorization reflecting the increased funding <br />are attached. <br /> <br />'\=-\3 <br />
