Commission preview: contracts for home-delivered meals, senior centers, Comcare substance-abuse services and Housing First
Summary
The agenda includes multiple consent items: an in-home meal contract for non-Wichita areas, 18 senior-center contracts, a Comcare contract with the city for liquor-tax-funded substance-abuse services, the Housing First contract with Wichita, a HIPAA policy amendment, and a sheriff's-office reclassification request.
Chair pro tem (speaker 3) outlined a set of consent and routine items that will appear on the regular agenda: a contract to provide home-delivered meals in non-Wichita areas; 18 senior center contracts consistent with the budget adopted last August; a city-of-Wichita contract for Comcare to deliver substance-abuse services funded through the city liquor-tax program; the Housing First contract jointly funded with Wichita; a resolution to amend the county's HIPAA policy; and a request to reclassify a sheriff's-office position related to public information.
"Item l is a contract with, a provider that delivers that takes care of in home home delivered meals, in the suburban or the non Wichita part of Sedgwick County," speaker 3 said. Commissioners also noted one bid-board item (a commissary contract) would be pulled for further work with purchasing at staff request.
Next steps: the listed contracts and policy resolution will appear on consent or as new-business agenda items for formal approval during the county's regular meeting; the pulled commissary bid will be reworked with purchasing.
