Agenda Analysis
Analysis
This resolution amends Resolution No. RS2024-775 to replace the grant contract exhibit. Resolution No. RS2024-775 approved a grant for the provision of Women, Infant, and Children (WIC) Program services, to provide supplemental foods, nutrition education, and breastfeeding promotion to eligible persons to promote good health. The grant amount is not to exceed $16,430,700 with no local cash match required. The grant term began October 1, 2024, and ends September 30, 2027.
The original grant contract approved by RS2024-775 was not fully executed as it lacked provisions requested by the Tennessee Department of Health in the grant contract. The revised provisions are D.19 Audit Report, D.20 Procurement, and D.27 State Interest in Equipment or Motor Vehicles. The resolution under consideration would provide the corrected grant contract.
