HLC0000123 Attachment 1 Budget.xlsx

This is a budget attachment template for a Massachusetts winter shelter project administered by the Executive Office of the Homeless and Low-Income Commission (EOHLC), with contact person Gordon Calkins. The file serves as the budget submission form for the HLC0000123 Winter Bed Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA). The budget template is designed for agencies proposing to operate seasonal shelter capacity during winter months, with projects classified as either nightly shelters or intermittent weather-dependent warming centers. The template requires applicants to specify the municipality where the project will be located, identify whether the proposed capacity is new or formerly unfunded, establish the number of people to be sheltered each night, and define operating schedules with specific opening and closing dates for nightly operations or estimated number of operating nights for intermittent programs.

The budget template organizes expenditures into three primary categories: Supportive Services (including salaries, wages, payroll taxes, fringe benefits, staff training, and program supplies), Operations (including facility rental, maintenance and repair, insurance, building security, furniture, and utilities), and Administration (capped at ten percent of combined Services and Operations costs). The template calculates key metrics including total cost per person per night and allows applicants to document leveraged resources and offsets that receive additional scoring consideration. The file includes a comprehensive list of Massachusetts municipalities eligible for project location selection, indicating the statewide scope of funding availability. All budget fields in the template currently display zero values and error messages, indicating this is a blank form awaiting completion by applicant agencies.
