Like previous years, we <br />bave prepared a proposal requesting the coutinuation of the program for the federal fiscal year <br />October 1, 2006-September 30, 2007. The proposal needs Cass County Commissiou support. <br />The Cass County Extension Service proposal is combined with proposals from other North <br />Dakota counties. The combined proposal will be forwarded to the Food and Nutrition Service <br />(FNS) branch of USDA by July 1, 2006 for consideration. The County Support Agreement is <br />attached to this request for your review. <br /> <br />The success of this program depends on a close working relationship with staff and clients of <br />several local agencies/entitics. Stephanie Volk and Doreen McFarland are the Cass County' <br />Extension Service staff members with job responsibilities for this program. <br /> <br />Like previous years, this year's proposal commits primarily in-kind resources from Cass <br />County aud Fargo Public School. The only' cash resources committed from Cass County are a <br />phone line, copying of program materials and expendable office supplies. These resources are <br />identified on the County Support Agreement. <br /> <br />If you havc questions about this I'd be happy to visit with you about it. <br /> <br />Suggested motion is: <br /> <br />Move that the Cass County Commission support the Family Nutrition Program county <br />proposal for continuation of the program from October 1. 2006 - September 30, 2007 pending <br />proposal acceptance by State and Federal partners. <br /> <br />J; Admin/GrantsJFN PCommission Letter.doc <br /> <br />CASSCDUNIY <br />GOVERNMENT <br />... <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />County Commissions.
