The Monroe County Board of Health recorded several formal actions during its Sept. 18 meeting. All motions below were taken by voice vote; the transcript records that motions were seconded and that no opposed votes were recorded during the roll calls cited below.
1) Approval of previous meeting minutes Motion: Approve the minutes of the previous meeting. Outcome: Passed by voice vote. (Transcript: motion and second recorded; board chair called for "Aye" and none opposed.)
2) Adoption of food-code amendments Motion: Adopt the amendments for the Monroe County chapter code sections 3 40 1-2, 3 40 1-5, and 3 40 1-8 to align with updated state food-code classifications and to reflect digital reporting. Outcome: Approved by voice vote. The amendments change violation classifications to "core," "priority foundation" and "priority" and update reporting to digital/GIS workflows.
3) Private-donation fund agreement (Ad Malliar Fund) Motion: Do not sign the county agreement to accept or administer a private employee-donation fund tied to the health department. Outcome: Board voted to decline signing the proposed agreement. Members said they preferred to retain the fund as a private, community-foundation–managed grant mechanism rather than add county-level approval and accounting requirements.
Notes: The transcript does not record detailed roll-call tallies by member name for the voice votes. Where specific ordinance or code identifiers were discussed (food-code sections listed above), those were recorded in the meeting conversation and are included here as reported by staff in the meeting.
