Summary
Grant County approved two subaward memoranda of understanding to allow the county to act as fiscal agent for Center for Health Innovations (CHI) and for related Department of Health grant funding; county staff said the agreements mirror earlier DOH paperwork and are required for pass-through administration.
Grant County commissioners approved two subaward memoranda of understanding June 26 allowing the county to act as the fiscal agent for grant funds administered by the Center for Health Innovations (CHI) and the Department of Health (DOH).
County staff presented the MOUs as the same agreements the commissioners signed previously when the county accepted DOH funding; the CHI MOU is the complementary pass-through document that allows CHI to use the county as fiscal agent. Staff said there are two separate grants and two corresponding documents (referred to in the meeting as items A-25-15 and A-25-16) that must be in place for the pass-through arrangement to function.
A motion to approve the two items passed on voice vote with no recorded opposition.
Why it matters: the approvals permit the county to receive and administer state grant funds on behalf of CHI and DOH, enabling program activities that depend on the county’s fiscal administration.
