County reviews City-County Health Department task order amendment and related budget adjustments
Summary
Cascade County commissioners reviewed a Montana DPHHS task order amendment that adds $104,362.50 to public-health programs and two small fund reconciliations; staff presented the items but the transcript records no formal vote or final action.
Cascade County commissioners on Feb. 4 heard presentations from the City‑County Health Department on a suite of items tied to state task‑order funding and small fund reconciliations.
City‑County Health Department staff listed Contract 26‑13 (MT DPHHS Task Order 26‑07‑3‑01‑002‑0 Amendment One) as an amendment to several public‑health programs, including the state cancer control and tobacco‑use programs. The amendment is effective Jan. 1–June 30, 2026, and increases funding by $104,362.50, bringing total funding for the task order to $157,487.00. The transcript identifies this entry as “Contract 26‑13” and ties a later budget resolution to the amendment.
Also on the agenda were two budget adjustment items tied to the Health Department. Resolution 26‑07 was presented to appropriate revenue and adjust expenditures in the CCHD Cancer Fund 2966‑471 related to the task‑order amendment; the resolution lists a revenue increase of $84,865 and an expense decrease of $3,736. Separately, Resolution 26‑06 was listed to reconcile cash balances after closeout of a Prevention Services Grant, showing matched increases of $127.27 to an expenditure account (Fund 2270) and a revenue account (Fund 2979).
The items were presented by City‑County Health Department staff during the consent and department reports portions of the session. The transcript does not record a motion, a roll‑call vote, or a stated outcome for these entries.
Why it matters: the DPHHS task‑order amendment brings six‑figure state funding into local public‑health programs that support cancer control, tobacco cessation and fall‑prevention efforts; the budget adjustments show routine bookkeeping tied to grant closeouts and the task‑order money. Absent recorded votes, the items were presented for the commission’s consideration during the work session.
Next steps: the work session transcript ends before recording any formal approvals or roll‑call votes for these specific health‑department items.
