Commission signs DPHHS task order to recover environmental health licensing fees
Summary
Park County approved the annual DPHHS task order (number 26074211310) allowing the health department to be reimbursed for environmental health and food safety licensing fees; staff said the legislature's fee changes mean the county expects higher revenue from inspections.
Park County commissioners voted to sign a DPHHS task order that enables the county health department to recover licensing fees paid by local establishments for environmental health and food safety inspections.
Travis, representing the health department, described the item as the department's standard annual contract that allows reimbursement of fees paid by inspected businesses. He said the state legislature revised fee structures during the last session, which will increase the amount the county receives for inspections in the coming year. He asked commissioners to review checkboxes on the task order to ensure the correct responsibilities are accepted.
During public comment, a participant identified as Eric clarified that the task order is a contract rather than a grant. Commissioners voiced support for the additional revenue and moved to sign the task order. The motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
The task order number recorded in the meeting transcript is 26074211310. The county did not record a roll-call vote in the transcript; approval was recorded by unanimous voice consent.
