The Commissioners received a letter from the Browns Valley Food Shelf asking for help to replace a damaged roof with an estimated cost of $38,887.00.
Commissioners discussed the request and asked staff to obtain additional information before making a decision: whether the roof replacement would proceed if the county provided less than the full amount; how much the county pays for utilities in the Extension/Food Shelf building in Wheaton; and historical amounts given to other nonprofit entities in the county. The Board tabled the request until the next Board meeting to allow staff time to gather those details.
No formal commitment or partial funding decision was made at the April 1 meeting.
