Fulton County approves sub‑agreement making county administrator for State Food Purchase Program
Summary
The board unanimously approved a sub‑agreement with the Fulton County Food Basket to name the county as administrator for state funds under the State Food Purchase Program (SFPP), after the Food Basket director said funds now flow to the county.
Fulton County commissioners approved a Sub-Agreement Feb. 10 with the Fulton County Food Basket, Inc. to designate the county as administrator for state funds under the State Food Purchase Program (SFPP). The action followed a presentation by Food Basket Director Sue Cubbage explaining that state funds now come to the county rather than directly to the nonprofit, requiring a formal Sub-Agreement.
Commissioner Randy H. Bunch moved to approve and execute the Sub-Agreement; the motion passed unanimously. Fiscal Administrator Sue Reed attended the review and provided fiscal context; the minutes do not record a dollar amount attached to the funds or additional contractual terms in the text.
Why it matters: the change shifts the administrative responsibility for SFPP funds to Fulton County, altering where state funds are received and who oversees disbursement to the Food Basket. The minutes record approval of the Sub-Agreement but do not include the agreement text or funding totals. The board adjourned at 11:20 a.m.
