Bill Bloom, director of HIV Health Services at the San Francisco Department of Public Health, presented Item 6 requesting authority to submit an application for Ryan White Part A funding for the San Francisco eligible metropolitan area. The request listed $36,118,233 for the 03/01/2013–02/28/2014 grant year.
Bloom said the amount represents the largest Part A award San Francisco received about nine to ten years earlier and explained that changes in allocation levels reflect the national pool of Part A dollars versus the number of eligible metropolitan areas applying.
