Fulton County approves sub‑agreement to administer state food purchase funds
Summary
The Board approved a Sub‑Agreement naming the county administrator of the State Food Purchase Program after the Fulton County Food Basket said state funds now arrive to the county directly. The move was approved unanimously Feb. 10.
Fulton County commissioners on Feb. 10 approved and executed a Sub‑Agreement with the Fulton County Food Basket, Inc. that names the county as administrator of state Food Purchase Program (SFPP) funds.
Food Basket Director Sue Cubbage told the board that state funds now come directly to the county instead of to the Food Basket, and that a Sub‑Agreement is required to clarify the county’s role as program administrator. County Fiscal Administrator Sue Reed was present for the discussion. Commissioner Randy H. Bunch moved to approve and execute the Sub‑Agreement; the motion carried with all commissioners voting in favor.
The minutes record the procedural change prompting the Sub‑Agreement but do not list specific dollar amounts or operational changes beyond naming the county administrator. The board recorded no dissenting votes in the minutes.
The Sub‑Agreement places formal administrative responsibility for the SFPP with the county; the minutes do not specify reporting timelines or performance metrics.
