Summary

Grand County approved a Denver Water property access authorization for air monitoring, a FY2025 amendment to the public-health emergency preparedness contract (no change in amount or dates), and a Women, Infants and Children (WIC) contract with CDPHE for Oct. 1, 2024–Sept. 30, 2025 for $37,642.

Grand County Public Health presented several administrative items to the Board of County Commissioners on Aug. 27 and received unanimous approval. Hannah Weine (deputy director) requested county authorization for staff to access Denver Water property to install and maintain air-quality monitoring equipment on County Road 5 through the end of November; the board approved the letter-of-authorization.

Director Abby Baker requested approval to sign (via DocuSign) the annual attestation on protection of personally identifying information and a contract amendment to the public-health emergency preparedness contract for FY2025. Baker said the contract amount remains $46,298 and the term remains July 1–June 30, 2025; the amendments adjust wording to meet federal standards. Finally, Baker presented a Women, Infants and Children (WIC) contract with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) beginning Oct. 1, 2024 and ending Sept. 30, 2025, for $37,642; the board approved signing and authorized the chair to sign applicable documents.

"It is actually just about 1000 dollars more for our annual contract than it has been in previous years," Baker said of the WIC contract and noted a partnership with Summit County that reduces Grand County's local obligation for WIC director support. Commissioners asked clarifying questions about contract dates and amounts before moving to approve the items.
