Agenda Item Presenter
1. Mid -Year Performance Reports for FY22.23 Agencies Gwen Hill
Gwen told the committee that the only things that stood out on the mid -year reports
were agencies that did not spend the county funding because they spent funds from other
sources. There were other agencies that received their funding as late as November. This
was because of county staff changes and contracts running behind. The agencies said
they'd be able to spend all of their funds by June 30.
2. Go through Applications and Discuss Any
Additional Questions for Agencies Committee
The committee went through about 21 of the applications and had discussions on each.
They gave Gwen the questions to send to the agencies. Gwen has scheduled another
meeting to complete this on February 21, and 22 if needed.
3. Review Bucket Choices Committee
Committee did not get to this but will do at the next meeting.
4. Other Discussions
Gwen talked about the Social Impact Fund 3-year pilot ending this current fiscal year
and that those three agencies applied for funding for FY23-24. She discussed the
applications being set up on the county website on November 9, and then the county
moved to a new website in December. When that happened, the applications would no
longer work correctly. One couldn't submit the application and some of the other
features would not work. So, the decision was made to put the updated pdf form like
was used in previous years back on the website to be used. Gwen said she has seen a
forms module that goes with the new website that she hopes we'll be able to obtain and
use for next year. Michelle let everyone know that allocation amount had not been
decided on yet. She and Eric were still in talks with management.
Notes: Next meeting is Thursday, March 2, 2023, at 9 am to review questions/answers from
agencies, bucket choices and to discuss any requests not eligible for funding.
