Emmet County board will not fund CAASA in FY2027 but offers office space
Summary
Chair Lisa Hansen told the board the county will not provide FY2027 funding to the Center for Assault and Sexual Assault (CAASA) but offered office space if the organization needs it; the meeting record does not show a formal vote on the funding decision or any dollar amount.
Chair Lisa Hansen reported that the Center for Assault and Sexual Assault (CAASA) contacted the county about FY2027 funding. Hansen told the board the county will not fund CAASA in FY2027 but that county staff could offer office space to the organization if needed.
The transcript records the board’s decision not to provide funding for the coming fiscal year but does not list a motion, vote tally or any dollar amount tied to CAASA. No CAASA representative is recorded as speaking at the meeting, and no public comment related to CAASA was entered into the hearing record.
The board’s statement is procedural and descriptive: it declines fiscal support for FY2027 while offering nonmonetary assistance in the form of office space. The record does not specify whether the offer of space includes rent, utilities, or other support; those details were "not specified" in the meeting minutes.
County staff or CAASA will need to follow up for clarity on the nature, location and timing of any space‑sharing arrangement. The meeting adjourned at 10:13 a.m.
