Commissioner asks staff to explore countywide grant‑writer model and funding options
Summary
Commissioner Rex Wolfsen asked the board to explore a countywide grant writer based on Iosco County’s model, noting ethical issues with commission pay and recommending funding options and township participation before bringing a presenter forward.
Commissioner Rex Wolfsen updated the board on exploring a countywide grant‑writer model, reporting that Iosco County uses a contracted position and that commission‑based compensation was identified as potentially unethical.
Wolfsen said one model would be a per‑person assessment that would make a grant writer available to all townships; the board should investigate funding mechanisms, include townships in discussions and consider getting quotes or arranging for a representative from Iosco County to present findings. No formal action or funding commitment was made; Wolfsen said the next steps are to investigate feasible funding approaches and solicit presentations.
