BOCC Special Meeting 7/2/26 11:15 a.m.

The Larimer County Board of Commissioners held a special meeting on July 2, 2026, to discuss and ratify a contract with the State of Colorado Department of Human Services for the use of Equifax's income verification tool. This contract is critical for verifying income eligibility for various public benefits programs such as Medicaid and SNAP. The contract, which began on July 1, 2026, offers unlimited use of the tool, resulting in significant cost savings compared to prior contracts that charged per use. Due to procedural issues with the electronic signature process, the contract was signed urgently before the fiscal year began to avoid disruption of services. The board unanimously approved a motion to ratify the contract and reapprove the board's prior approval from June 30, 2026, ensuring transparency and proper documentation.
