Emmet County will not fund CAASA in FY2027 but offers office space
Summary
The Emmet County Board of Supervisors told representatives of the Center for Assault and Sexual Assault (CAASA) it will not provide FY2027 funding but said the county can offer office space if the agency needs it.
Chairperson Lisa Hansen reported receiving a call from the Center for Assault and Sexual Assault (CAASA) about the county’s FY2027 funding for the organization. The board discussed the request at the June 16 meeting and decided not to include funding for CAASA in the FY2027 county budget. Hansen stated the county would, however, offer office space to CAASA if needed.
The decision to decline funding was recorded in the meeting minutes but no formal motion or roll call vote on that specific funding decision was recorded in the minutes. The board did not record a spending amount or a timeline for the office‑space offer in the public meeting record. The minutes show no public comments were received during the related budget hearings.
CAASA was identified in the minutes as the Center for Assault and Sexual Assault. The board’s action at the June 16 meeting leaves funding for CAASA out of the FY2027 county budget while leaving open a non‑monetary accommodation of office space.
