Committee authorizes public-health hires, Leading with Lead grant participation and transit contract extension
Summary
The committee approved creation and filling of public-health positions, authorized participation in NYSHCR Leading with Lead Grant round 3, approved agreements with transporters for out-of-bid routes, and extended a one-year contract with Birnie Bus.
Cayuga County’s Health & Human Services Committee approved several health-department actions on April 8, including staffing authorizations, grant participation, transport agreements and a bus contract extension.
Resolutions 4-26-HH-1 and 4-26-HH-2 authorize creating and filling a part-time Public Health Engineer position (Help Program) and authorizing either a full-time Public Health Nurse position or a full-time Registered Professional Nurse position in the Health Department. The committee also authorized participation in New York State Homes and Community Renewal (NYSHCR) Leading with Lead Grant round 3 and acceptance of associated funding (4-26-HH-3), agreements with transporters for routes outside the awarded bid contract (4-26-HH-4), and a one-year contract extension with Birnie Bus (4-26-HH-5). Motions were bundled and approved with recorded seconds and "all in favor."
The minutes record the staffing and contract approvals but do not list staffing salaries, grant amounts, or precise transport-route details; those are to be handled by the Public Health Director and relevant departments.
