A. It is the intent of the General Assembly that visually handicapped persons who have completed vocational training as food service managers through programs operated by the Department be considered for food service management position openings within the Commonwealth as they arise.
B. 1.The annual federal vocational rehabilitation grant award that will be received by the Department for the Blind and Vision Impaired (DBVI) is estimated at $9,370,416 for federal fiscal year 2020; $9,370,416 for federal fiscal year 2021; and $9,370,416 for federal fiscal year 2022. In addition to the base annual award amount, DBVI may request up to $2,000,000 of additional federal reallotment dollars in each of these years. Assuming these amounts, the annual 21.3 percent state matching requirement would equate to $3,077,380 for federal fiscal year 2020; $3,077,380 for federal fiscal year 2021; and $3,077,380 for federal fiscal year 2022.
2. Based on the projection of federal award funding in paragraph B.1., DBVI shall not request federal vocational rehabilitation grant dollars in excess of $11,370,416 for federal fiscal year 2020; $11,370,416 for federal fiscal year 2021; and $11,370,416 for federal fiscal year 2022, without prior written concurrence from the Director, Department of Planning and Budget. Any approved increases in grant award requests shall be reported by DARS to the Chairmen of the House Appropriations and Senate Finance Committees within 30 days.
