Board approves Healthy Arizona Families IGA amendment allowing modest food purchases for meetings
Summary
Graham County approved Amendment No. 1 to the Title V Maternal and Child Health Healthy Arizona Families intergovernmental agreement, allowing purchase of food at meetings within a 3% budget cap.
The Board of Supervisors voted Sept. 2 to approve Amendment No. 1 to the Title V Maternal and Child Health intergovernmental agreement (IGA) for Graham County’s Healthy Arizona Families program. Brian Douglas, county health department, said the amendment updates the IGA to permit food purchases at meetings and events that fall within the IGA guidelines.
During discussion a supervisor noted the amendment limits food purchases to no more than 3% of the program’s total budget for the year; another supervisor said the spending helps attendance and participation. The board moved and approved the amendment by voice vote.
The IGA amendment authorizes expenditures for food within the stated cap; the exact dollar amount will depend on the program’s annual budget and must comply with IGA guidelines and procurement rules.
The transcript does not record a specific vendor or budget-line item beyond the noted 3% cap.
