Spokane County commissioners unanimously approve consent items, extend $100,000 navigator agreement
Summary
The Spokane County Board of County Commissioners on May 26 approved consent items including a $100,000 extension for navigator services with the Spokane Regional Health District; a commissioner stressed the funding continues an existing program aimed in part at PFAS response on the West Plains.
Spokane County commissioners unanimously approved consent items on May 26 that include a $100,000 extension to the county's agreement with the Spokane Regional Health District for navigator services.
A commissioner moved to approve items 3 and 4, "including all sub items on today's agenda," and the motion was seconded. Before the vote, the commissioner said recent media coverage misstated item 4c as a first-time, one-time funding action. "This is a continuation of the county's efforts to work collaboratively with the health district and our partners to try and address the issue of the presence of PFAS on the West Plains," the commissioner said.
The chair called for the vote and the motion passed unanimously; the chair noted that all five commissioners were present. The board did not debate the consent items further on the record.
The meeting record indicates the $100,000 referenced is an extension of existing funding and cooperation with the Spokane Regional Health District for navigator services; the transcript did not provide additional contract terms or an effective date.
After the consent vote, a commissioner announced a scheduled closed session to discuss labor negotiations. The chair adjourned the public meeting and said the board would reconvene after the closed session the following week.
