Northeastern Counseling provides $300K funding for new health services building

In a recent meeting held on March 11, 2025, the Daggett County Municipal Building Authority discussed significant funding developments for their health and social services building project. The atmosphere was one of collaboration and gratitude as members acknowledged the financial support from Northeastern Counseling, which has been instrumental in advancing the project.

Kyle Snow, a representative from Northeastern Counseling, played a pivotal role by securing a grant of $300,000 aimed at furnishing the new facility. This funding is particularly crucial given the current cash flow challenges faced by the authority. In a commendable gesture, Snow agreed to front the $300,000 to facilitate immediate purchases, with plans for reimbursement later. This proactive approach not only alleviates financial pressure but also underscores the strong partnership between the authority and Northeastern Counseling.

During the meeting, Jesse, a member of the authority, provided a detailed breakdown of how the grant funds would be utilized. The money will support various essential components of the building, including the fitness complex, conference room infrastructure, and miscellaneous furniture for partner organizations. Notably, the funding will cover the costs of training tables, chairs, and an operable wall for the conference room, ensuring it is equipped for community use.

The authority reviewed four separate purchase requests from different vendors, with the first being a request for $56,540.80 from the Hahn Company LLC for tables and chairs. This purchase is part of a state contract, which allows for significant discounts, making it a financially sound decision. Members discussed the details of the contract, emphasizing the importance of transparency and accuracy in the purchase requests.

As the meeting progressed, the authority members expressed their appreciation for the support received and the collaborative efforts that have made this project possible. The discussions highlighted not only the immediate financial implications but also the long-term benefits of the new facility for the Daggett County community.

In conclusion, the meeting underscored a significant step forward for the Daggett County Municipal Building Authority, showcasing the power of community partnerships and strategic funding in overcoming financial hurdles. As the project moves ahead, the authority remains committed to ensuring that the new building serves as a valuable resource for the community.
