Context and procedure notes
Committee members discussed staffing levels at the DuPage Care Center and noted shifts between agency staff and full-time staff; Janelle (DuPage Care Center representative) provided an operational update on agency usage and construction-related survey scheduling for reopened units. The staffing-contract approvals reflected the committee’s routine contract authorization process; formal roll-call vote counts were not recorded in the public transcript for the items listed above.
Ending
Approved contract awards and purchase-order adjustments will proceed as authorized by committee motion. The committee moved separately to negotiate a pending food-program contract and requested that item be returned for formal approval at a future meeting.
