RE: Approval of a request by Genesee County's Community Action Resource Department to liquidate a Head Start modular unit
recommendation
BOARD ACTION REQUESTED:
The Genesee County Community Action Resource Department (GCCARD) requests authorization from this committee to dispose of or liquidate a Head Start modular unit currently housed at 8483 W. Silver Lake Rd., Linden MI, 48451, with a recommendation of approval by the full Genesee County Board of Commissioners at their next regularly scheduled meeting.
BACKGROUND:
The modular unit, acquired in 2002 from the Genesee Intermediate School District, was intended to be utilized as alternative classroom space in the event of a loss of facilities within the Linden School District or an expansion of Early Head Start center-based services. No such need has arisen, and the unit has exceeded its “useful life” of 15 years. GCCARD is seeking to dispose of the unit or transfer the equipment to the school district if requested.
DISCUSSION:
GCCARD would like to request permission from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families to dispose of or liquidate this property in accordance with 45 CFR 75.320 (e) and 45 CFR 75.308(c)(1)(xi) per ACF-IM-HS-20-02.
IMPACT ON HUMAN RESOURCES:
There will be no impact on Human Resources.
IMPACT ON BUDGET:
There will be no impact on budget. No General Funds are being requested.
IMPACT ON FACILITIES:
There will be no impact on facilities.
IMPACT ON TECHNOLOGY:
There will be no impact on technology.
CONFORMITY TO COUNTY PRIORITIES:
This memorandum conforms to Genesee County’s priority of Long-Term Financial Stability, refocusing resources from the maintenance of underutilized equipment to better suit current program needs and reducing liability by consolidating inventory purchased with federal funds.
