Title
Vote on a Request to Approve the County Manager and DSS Director to sign MOU with DHHS as required by NCGS 108-74.
Abstract
Action Requested: Vote on a Request to Approve the County Manager and DSS Director to sign MOU as required by NCGS 108-74.
Introduction & Background: A requirement of HB 630 is for all departments of social services to enter into a written agreement each year that specifies mandated performance requirements and administrative responsibilities with regard to all social services programs other than medical assistance.
Discussion & Analysis: While the MOU was approved by the Board in June 2018, modifications were made by DHHS to delay implementation of performance requirements until next fiscal year. There is also a modification to allow for counties to satisfy some "growth measures" toward achievement of performance requirements.
How does this relate to the Comprehensive Plan: NA
Budgetary Impact: NA
Recommendation: Recommend that County Manager and DSS Director sign amended MOU for FY 18-19.
