This is something we should discuss on Thursday. I can’t approve anything that takes county dollars, the DSS budget is wrong and will have to be amended. Talk to you on Thursday. Thanks, Rick

Subject: Purchase approval
Hey Rick, wanted to get your approval for the purchase of our needed items from the cares/covid grants that the health and DSS has that will revert back to the state in December if we don’t order ASAP. Remember this is no county dollars. The guidelines for purchases are very specific and we have them already approved and in both budgets as of last night. Is it OK to proceed with the following ;
1)DSS needs to order 5 computers and scanners
2) Health needs to order awning, Josh said we could order it cheaper and install this ourselves, we are thinking in the neighborhood of 5,000 to 6,000.00. ( we have had complaints from patients that have gotten wet during some of these bad weather days and staff are in the weather much longer than even clients)
I hate to not utilize these grant funds for our county instead of relinquishing them to our neighbors.
It was good to see you last night, I hope your health keeps improving every day. Talk to you soon.
