The City of Seward and SCHC are co-applicants for Section 330 federal funding to operate a
federally qualified health center in Seward; together, the entities comprise the Health Center. The

Council Resolution 2014-018, and subsequently amended it in Resolution 2018-067, approved on
August 13,2018.This Agreement requires that the SCHC budget be approved first by the governing
Board and then by the City Council, and includes the following language:

City Code 2.40.OJ0(a)."
In accordance with Section 5 of the Agreement,the parties also agree to participate in a Coordinating

219
period, showing costs supported by the grant and costs supported by other sources of non-HRSA
funding (i.e. patient revenue, City grant funding, other funding).
