Board notes vouchers, approves budget amendment and amends SNAP-match resolution; legislative agenda sent back for rewrite
Summary
On Oct. 23 the board: approved minutes from Sept. 25; noted September vouchers; amended and approved a resolution adjusting federal-match projections for certain SNAP funding and forwarded it to the legislative committee; failed to approve the draft legislative agenda and returned it to staff for revision; and passed a DHS budget amendment.
Several formal actions and votes occurred during the Oct. 23 meeting.
Minutes: The board approved the minutes from Sept. 25 after minor typographical corrections. (Motion: Dr. Hall; Second: Supervisor Bachand; outcome: approved.)
Vouchers: The board reviewed and noted DHS vouchers for September totaling $2,211,009.15. (Motion to note/review: Mr. Lamb; Second: Supervisor Steen; outcome: noted.)
Resolution adjusting federal-match projection (SNAP-related): Staff requested a correction to a draft resolution to reflect a lower federal match and a corrected dollar figure ($223,423) compared with an earlier, higher figure in the packet. The board amended the resolution language and approved it as amended; staff will forward it to the legislative committee. (Motion to approve as amended: Supervisor Steen; Second: Mr. Lamb; outcome: approved and forwarded.)
Legislative agenda: The board discussed an expanded 2026 legislative agenda. Multiple supervisors asked for clearer, single-issue asks and more concise language. A motion to approve the agenda failed on a voice vote; the agenda was returned to staff for revision and condensed wording before further action. (Motion to approve: moved/seconded; outcome: failed — sent back to staff.)
Budget amendment: The board approved a DHS budget amendment to incorporate grant adjustments and revenue changes presented by staff. (Motion: Supervisor Steen; Second: Supervisor Vershawn; outcome: approved.)
