recommendation
BOARD ACTION REQUESTED:
Approval of a budget amendment and increase of $81,000 in agreement between Genesee County and the Valley Area Agency on Aging for a revised total amount not to exceed $251,460 to provide intake, assessment, and home delivered meal assessments for fiscal year 2024-2025.
BACKGROUND:
This annual contract allows the service providers to receive reimbursement for approved budgeted monthly expenses from the Genesee County Senior Millage.
DISCUSSION:
When VAAA took over the Intake and Assessment program in 2021-2022 they agreed to complete the Home Delivered Meal Assessments and Reassessments at no additional cost to the senior millage. VAAA had received additional funding from ARPA and Covid dollars. Since the state ended the Public Health Emergency, there are no additional dollars for this position. VAAA is asking for an increase of $81,000 to their revised award amount totaling $251,460.
