Human Services Committee approves contracts, hires and grants in June 9 meeting
Summary
Otsego County’s Human Services Committee on June 9 approved multiple contracts, a temporary hire, several grants and budget transfers — including contracts for summer youth employment, a case‑management vendor, St. Peter’s respite funding and a Beacon Solutions assistance agreement — all by roll call votes.
The Otsego County Human Services Committee approved a series of contracts, grants, hires and budget adjustments during its June 9, 2026 meeting, voting on each item by roll call.
Key approvals included: the Opportunities Front SeLe case‑management contract (amount recorded on the floor), a contract with CDO Workforce to support the summer youth employment program (not to exceed $24,042), acceptance of a Public Health Emergency Preparedness grant for $52,999 (fiscal year July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027), a caregiver‑respite contract with St. Peter’s Health Partners for $20,000, and a six‑month assistance agreement with Beacon Solutions (rate $75/hour; cap $70,000) that followed an executive session.
The committee also approved personnel actions and budget adjustments: creation and hiring of a Medicaid‑funded, part‑time social welfare position; a temporary family services specialist position for roughly three months at $28.62 per hour; and budget transfers to cover a psychiatric nurse practitioner contract.
Votes were recorded by roll call. Members named during roll calls who recorded votes or absences include Martini, Parkway (sometimes recorded as Rockway in the transcript), Mendes and Clapperton (noted as absent in several votes). In each case where a roll call occurred the chair announced that the motion passed.
The committee took these actions as part of routine departmental operations and to authorize spending already outlined in agenda items. The meeting adjourned after the final votes.
