As part of the Senior Tax Levy process, the Human & Health Services Committee is responsible for recommending the amount of funding that is to be made available for purchasing services for seniors. In addition to the recurring funding that is made available, the Committee has recommended that the County Board approve a one-time allocation of additional funds to these organizations. The total additional allocation recommended is $50,550.00 or approximately one quarter of the Senior Services Budget Fund Balance.

In recognition of the impact that the COVID-19 Pandemic has had on the delivery of senior services, as well as the rising cost of food, Staff recommended that the Committee request that the additional, one-time funds be made available from the funds that the County has received from the American Rescue Plan Act. The Health & Human Services Committee has forwarded the request to the Executive Committee for action at the May 10th meeting.
