DA office amendment clears path to federal grant rules; county to receive higher administrative fees
Summary
Commissioners approved Amendment No. 1 to an intergovernmental cooperative agreement to align the Coos County DA office with 2 CFR 200 federal grant provisions; the DA reported nearly $3 million collected in the most recent federal fiscal year and an increase in administrative fee from 10% to 15%.
The Coos County Board of Commissioners approved Amendment No. 1 to an intergovernmental cooperative agreement (IGA) to incorporate federal grant rule changes from 45 CFR part 75 into 2 CFR 200 for the district attorney’s child-support related functions.
Julie, representing the DA office, said the federal Office of Child Support Services replaced provisions of 45 CFR part 75 and adopted provisions under 2 CFR 200 effective Oct. 1, 2024; the amendment updates the county’s IGA so the DA office can use the new provisions. Julie told the board that during the federal fiscal year (Oct. 1 through Sept. 30) the DA office collected almost $3,000,000 in child-support receipts.
Commissioner discussion noted the amendment enables the county to charge a higher administrative fee for some functions; one speaker said the administrative fee will increase from about 10% to 15%, which will let the county retain additional administrative revenue.
The board approved Amendment No. 1 by motion.
Ending: The amendment aligns county administration with federal grant rules and is expected to modestly increase administrative revenue for the DA office.
