#10(Apr.)Amendment$0.0004/15/201904/15/201906/30/2019Recently, the organization conducted a fiscal review of the costs of their tipline. The organization recently transferred its tip line to another vendor at a fraction of the cost being charged by their current vendor, AT and T. The organization still required a local number for tipsters to be able to call for status checks on their tips, and the quote for that monthly from AT and T was $191.55 per month. The cost of basic cell phone service was quoted by local vendors at $60 per month x 3 months= $180. As a result, the board of directors decided that a local cell phone number was adequate for tip status calls that would be diverted from the tipline. Also, as the cell phone is very portable, the coordinator can simply hand it off to her backup when she is away from the office.
#11(May)Amendment$0.0005/15/201905/15/201906/30/2019Hernando County CS is requesting to make the following transfers from within Rewards and Public Education to prevent a budget shortfall: $858.00 from Line Item Rewards to Line Item Newspaper $300.00 from Line Item Bus Benches to Line Item Newspaper $40.00 from Line Item Tip Lines to Line Item Cell Phone $20.00 from Line Item Tip Lines to Line Item Website Development/Maintenance $500 from Line Item Tip Lines to Line Item Printer The budget for Line Item Newspaper was underfunded by $1,158 when the grant was written. These additional funds will allow the program to continue its weekly ads through the end of May in the Tampa Bay Times and Hernando Sun based on recurring expenses for this line item. The monthly costs for the coordinator's cell phone is slightly higher than originally expected, thus leaving it underfunded for the remainder of the grant year by approximately $40. The cell phone is used by the coordinator to provide tip status updates and reward pickup information to anonymous tipsters. The organization recently discovered that their website domain name is due to be renewed with the current vendor by June 12, 2019. If this were to expire, the domain name www.hernandocountycrimestoppers.com could be sold. The organization's website is critically important in providing timely information about unsolved crimes and the whereabouts of wanted fugitives, and acting as a portal for receiving anonymous webtips. Costs were provided by the current vendor based on previous expenses. The organization needs to purchase a multi-functional color laser printer for the Secretary. The Secretary is required to print minutes and other reports for distribution at the monthly board meetings. She also is required to scan and email documents to the grant manager needed for monthly grant reporting to OAG. Costs have been researched with several, local vendors average cost is $500.
