Summary

Policy and Governance recommended dividing $1 million in unspent ARPA funds in the medical claims benefits code equally among the three commission districts; the board approved allocating those funds to district subrecipients.

The board approved a Policy and Governance Committee recommendation to allocate about $1,000,000 in unspent American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds from the county benefits code (medical claims project) equally among the three commission districts for use with existing subrecipients.

A committee representative explained that the unspent funds should be divided equally and used by each district with their current subrecipients. One commissioner quipped about an extra penny in the division; the committee representative said commissioners could decide how to allocate that. The motion to accept the committee's recommendation was moved and seconded and approved by voice vote.

Ending: The board approved splitting the unspent ARPA balance equally among the three districts and authorized district use for existing subrecipients.
