There is hereby established a Nutrition Reserve Fund under the control of the Director of the Department of Aging. From the fund the director may allocate to any individual nutrition project for any fiscal year no more than three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) in order to maintain necessary services which lack sufficient federal funding.
A nutrition project shall not receive more than one appropriation from the Nutrition Reserve Fund during the duration of the contract period of the project.
Requests for allocations from the Nutrition Reserve Fund shall be reviewed by the applicable local area agency on aging. The local area agency on aging shall submit recommendations to the California Department of Aging.
