Fulton County approves Sub-Agreement naming county administrator for state food purchase funds
Summary
The board authorized a Sub-Agreement with the Fulton County Food Basket so the county will administer state Food Purchase Program funds that will flow directly to the county; the motion passed unanimously during the Feb. 10 meeting.
The Fulton County Board of Commissioners voted Feb. 10 to approve and execute a Sub-Agreement between the county and the Fulton County Food Basket, Inc. that designates the county as the administrator for state Food Purchase Program (SFPP) funds.
Food Basket Director Sue Cubbage told commissioners the funding mechanism is changing: state funds that previously flowed to the Food Basket will now be routed to the county, requiring a formal Sub-Agreement naming a county administrator. Fiscal Administrator Sue Reed joined the discussion and the board approved the Sub-Agreement on a motion by Commissioner Randy H. Bunch; the minutes record the action as unanimous.
The minutes do not include the text of the Sub-Agreement or operational details such as reporting requirements, start date or whether the county will pass funds through to the Food Basket on reimbursement or advance terms. The action indicates the county will fulfill an administrative role for the SFPP going forward; staff-level implementation steps and reporting were not specified in the meeting record.
