MiscJudy/Advance Agreement Staff Report <br />Kittitas County <br />Board of County Commissioners <br /> <br />Agenda Staff Report <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Agenda Date: April 18, 2017 <br /> <br />Action Requested: Request to have the Chairman sign the Amendment to County Program <br />Agreement–Long Term Payable Agreement (DSHS Agreement # 1763-88849) <br /> <br /> <br />Background: The County currently has an agreement with DSHS for funds held in advance for the <br />Developmental Disability and Substance Abuse Programs. The amount currently on <br />hand is $59,564.00 for Developmental Disabilities (DD) and $32,580.00 for <br />Substance Abuse (SA). On April 1, 2017, the County Auditor sent in a Contract <br />Period Analysis to DSHS for the advance funds to determine if the need is still <br />present and to verify the funds are still available. These advance funds are to <br />alleviate the cash flow problems associated with the time lag between payment by <br />the County for services and reimbursement from DSHS. This agreement date is <br />from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018. We are in the process of returning the <br />Substance Abuse portion as we no longer have a need for those advance funds. <br />Based upon their review, they have moved the SA funds to the DD account, but <br />waiting for confirmation. We can receive a bigger advance, than what we already <br />have for the DD program but I do not see the need as reimbursement has been <br />within three weeks. <br /> <br /> <br />Recommendation: Request the Chairman sign the contract 1763-88849 County Program Agreement <br />Long-Term Payable Agreement with DSHS. <br /> <br />Interaction: Christopher Horner, Prosecutor <br /> Prosecutor job #38331 <br /> <br />Handling: Return all copies to Judy Pless <br /> She will return to State for signatures <br /> <br />Attachments: County Program or Interlocal – Long Term Payable Agreement #1763-88849 <br /> <br />Lead Staff Judy Pless, Budget & Finance Manager <br /> Kittitas County Auditor’s Office <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
