Commissioners approve Sub-Agreement naming county administrator for State Food Purchase Program
Summary
The board unanimously approved a Sub-Agreement appointing Fulton County as administrator for state food purchase funds previously routed to the Fulton County Food Basket, Inc.; the Food Basket director explained the change in funding flow.
The Fulton County Board of Commissioners voted Feb. 10 to approve and execute a Sub-Agreement with the Fulton County Food Basket, Inc. that names the county as administrator of the State Food Purchase Program (SFPP). Food Basket Director Sue Cubbage told the commissioners that state funds will now flow to the county rather than directly to the Food Basket, making a county-administered Sub-Agreement necessary.
Commissioner Randy H. Bunch moved to approve the Sub-Agreement; the motion passed with all commissioners voting in favor. Fiscal Administrator Sue Reed participated in the review with Cubbage and recommended executing the agreement so the Food Basket could continue to receive and administer program benefits under county oversight.
The minutes do not specify the dollar value or reporting schedule attached to the Sub-Agreement; the record states only that the Sub-Agreement was approved and executed. The board’s action formally names the county as the program administrator, shifting the administrative relationship while preserving the Food Basket’s role in program delivery.
