Health & Human Services committee approves contracts, seasonal hires and youth funding
Summary
Cayuga County Health and Human Services committee approved multiple resolutions covering home-care contracts, seasonal HEAP clerks, a summer youth employment allocation and public-health contracts; one item was pulled for rewording.
The Cayuga County Health and Human Services committee approved a group of routine and programmatic resolutions Tuesday that authorize contracts for home-based care, add seasonal clerical staff for the winter fuel (HEAP) season, accept $230,591 in state summer youth employment funding and approve other public-health and social-services positions.
Committee members said the bundle of measures directly supports ongoing service delivery for aging residents, people eligible for Medicaid personal-care assistance and low-income households that rely on HEAP. Several votes were voice votes and carried with committee assent; one resolution creating new ‘help’ classification positions was pulled to be reworded and returned at the next meeting.
