County accepts increased immunization task order; $6,602 added for public-health services
Summary
Prairie County accepted a task-order amendment increasing immunization-services funding from $3,402 to $6,602.33 and discussed using part of the funds for a new public sign; the board approved the amendment by voice vote.
A county public-health presenter asked the board to accept an amendment that increases the immunization-services task order from $3,402 to $6,602.33. The presenter said the extra funds may permit replacement of the public electronic sign and highlighted that the money is public-health funding to be prioritized for immunization-related activities.
The presenter said the change reflects funds that were distributed later in the fiscal year and proposed using a portion for an updated sign; commissioners discussed whether vendors would provide service on the new sign and whether the funds must be restricted to the activities listed in the task order. One motion to accept the task-order amendment carried by voice vote after a second. As recorded in the meeting, the motion read: "to change the payment from the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services from $3,402 to $6,602.33 for immunization services task order." The presenter noted the money is expected to be federal pass-through funding that must be spent by 06/30/2026.
The board directed staff to finalize the acceptance in the minutes and to coordinate use of the awarded funds consistent with state requirements.
