Services to sign amendments to the
Department of Community Serines’_
consolidated contract with the state
Department of Health. The contract
will extend through the duration of M
the COVID-19 response to reduce
turnaround times for smallcontract
amendments. '
David Windom, Community Ser-
vices director, said that granting him
such authority would improve the
county’s response times to budget ad-
justments. .
According to the resolution,
amendments to the contract often
arrive on short notice, with short
turnaround times, and their funding
is frequently smaller than the cost
of staff time to move the contracts
through the'briefing and commission
process.
