Request/Subject

Amendment No. 3 to an Intergovernmental Agreement (Contract No. ADHS12-010890) with Arizona Department of Health Services.

Background Information

The Board of Supervisors adopted this Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) on October 18, 2011. This contract provides funding for continuation of the Commodity Supplemental Foods Program (CSFP) and the Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP). This popular program provides approximately 200 low-income individuals, mostly seniors, with a box of commodities each month that provides vital nutrients that participants might not otherwise receive. Farmers' Markets are now featured events during the summer in Payson and Globe.

The Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 1 on February 7, 2012 extending the services and the price sheet.

The Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 2 on October 22, 2013 extending the services and the price sheet.

Evaluation

This Amendment will replace the Price Sheet section of the Intergovernmental Agreement. CSFP funding will remain level of funding at $5,448.
Seniors Farmer's Market Nutrition Program will remain fee for service at the same rate of $1.25 for each unit of check issuance.

Conclusion

This Amendment to the IGA contract provides funding of $5,488 for continuation of the CSFP from October 1, 2014, to September 30, 2015.
