Fulton County commissioners approve Food Basket sub‑agreement, clear routine minutes and bills
Summary
The Fulton County Board of Commissioners approved a sub‑agreement naming the county as administrator of the State Food Purchase Program for the Fulton County Food Basket, Inc., and approved routine minutes, an accounts‑payable batch of $91,872.06 and several departmental requests.
The Fulton County Board of Commissioners approved a sub‑agreement Feb. 10 between the county and the Fulton County Food Basket, Inc. that will designate the county as administrator of the State Food Purchase Program after state funds began routing through the county.
Food Basket Director Sue Cubbage explained that state funds now come directly to the county instead of the Food Basket, requiring the county to name an administrator through a Sub‑Agreement. Commissioner Randy H. Bunch moved to approve and execute the Sub‑Agreement; the motion carried with the board voting "All in favor."
The vote was part of a slate of routine approvals at the meeting. Commissioner Steven L. Wible moved to approve the Feb. 3, 2026 commissioners' minutes and the Jan. 27, 2026 Retirement Board minutes; both were approved unanimously. Commissioner Hervey P. Hann moved to approve accounts payable dated Feb. 3, 2026 in the total amount of $91,872.06; that motion also passed unanimously. The record shows a fund‑level breakdown including $75,212.91 from Fund 100 (General Fund) and $12,500.00 allocated to Fund 300 (Capital Projects).
Other approvals included a travel request for Services for Children Director Christine McQuade to attend the Chief Justice Max Baer's Children's Roundtable Summit Apr. 22–24, 2026, a $640.00 tire purchase from Citgo for a Services for Children vehicle so it can pass inspection, and a Certification Statement for the fourth quarter of 2025 submitted by Services for Children Fiscal Technician Stephanie Mellott. Commissioners made each motion and recorded that all were in favor.
The meeting record shows the board met with HR representative Mary Huston and with resident Craig Strait (who provided a handout about personal property history), and received a presentation/demonstration of Chief 360 Mobile for Fire & EMS. The commissioners adjourned at 11:20 a.m.
