Title
Vote on a request to approve $6,182 Environmental Health State Inspections
Abstract
Action Requested: Vote on a request to approve $6,182 Environmental Health State Funds.
Introduction & Background: In order to fund a portion of local expenditures created by State-mandated Food, Lodging, and Institution sanitation programs and activities, the legislature established a State Inspections, Statistics, and Fees Program within the Environmental Health Section. This program centralizes public health data, invoices regulated facilities, and distributes the funds in accordance with G.S. 130A-248(d). The receipts collected are redistributed to local environmental health programs in the form of aid to counties.
Discussion & Analysis: The Agreement Addendum allows for the Local Health Department’s environmental health program to implement State-required sanitation regulations. The funds from this Agreement Addendum are to be used to support local food, lodging, and institution sanitation programs and activities.
Budgetary Impact: No Local Funding Required.
Recommendation: Vote on a request to approve $6,182 Environmental Health State Funds.
