This Mornings County Board Committee Meetings

McHenry County Board Management Services Committee meets this morning beginning at 8:30am in the County Board room. The County's IT Department is scheduled to provide a presentation on an info portal. Other routine matters include authorizing a contract for codification services for the County Clerk's office and a discussion regarding local preference in procurement.

The Finance and Audit Committee of the County Board also meets this morning beginning at 9:30am. A number of resolutions regarding acceptance of grants are to be considered. These include several grants for the Health Department including a $154,730 grant from the Illinois Department of Public Health for the Illinois Breast and Cervical Cancer Program; a $38,689 grant also from the Department of Public Health to conduct a Mosquito Vector Prevention Program; and a $10,000 grant from the Department of Human Services for the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program.

On another matter $250,000 is being added to the General Fund Contingency Budget for any unplanned expenditures that may occur in these departments. It was a plan set out at the close of the last fiscal year that department heads were informed that if fiscal year 2009 ended in the black, some supplemental budget request would be readdressed. The Finance and Audit Committee is to adopt the necessary resolution setting this aside.
