Committee backs request to delay federal SNAP administrative cost shift for two years
Summary
A DSS official asked the Human Services Committee to support a resolution calling for a two‑year delay of a federal SNAP administrative benefit cost shift; the committee approved the resolution by roll-call vote and sent it onward.
A Department of Social Services (DSS) representative asked the Otsego County Human Services Committee on Aug. 27 to support a resolution calling for a two‑year delay of the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) administrative benefit cost shift. The committee moved, seconded and approved the resolution in a roll‑call vote.
The DSS speaker told the committee, "Calling for a 2 year delay of the federal SNAP administrative benefit cost shift," and staff provided the committee with a copy of the draft resolution. Committee members made the motion, seconded it and the clerk conducted a roll‑call that recorded affirmative votes and no abstentions. The committee approved the item and will forward the resolution as requested.
Why it matters: the request asks higher authorities to postpone a shift in administrative costs to local agencies; the committee did not set a local funding change but approved the resolution to express Otsego County's position. The action was recorded as a formal motion and approved by roll call.
