Summary

The Steuben County Finance Committee voted to accept additional 2025 funds for Social Services, including a $180,000 need in the TAM budget; staff said the changes largely reflect federal funding timing and pending federal calls.

The Steuben County Finance Committee voted to accept additional funds into Social Services' 2025 budgets after staff outlined timing and federal-aid considerations.

A Social Services representative told the committee, "We are needing 180,000 in our TAM budget," and said part of the change reflects federal aid timing. Committee members asked whether the increase was driven by new federal action; staff said some of the funding is federal and some reflects state safety-net aid and local share adjustments. Staff also said final recognition of several items remains subject to a pending 14-day call as the year-end accounting is finalized.

The committee moved and approved the budget adjustment by voice vote. Members asked staff to follow up with a clearer breakout of federal, state and local components once the year-end transactions are posted.

The action is procedural approval to recognize and allocate the cited funds into Social Services' 2025 budgets; no new policy was adopted. Staff committed to return with more detailed line-item reconciliations in the next report.
