Committee Meeting | HHS - August 11, 2026

The Wayne County Commission held a committee meeting on August 11, 2026, focusing primarily on health and human services initiatives. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of a $35,000 grant to support the local response to a Cyclospora outbreak, covering additional staffing and overtime costs. The commission also approved an amendment to a purchase order with Sun Valley Foods Company to continue supplying liquid nutrition products for medically necessary nutritional supplementation over the next two years. Additionally, the commission approved a one-year, $2.7 million grant agreement with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Health Resources and Services Administration to support operations at federally qualified health centers in Wayne County, including a newly operational third location in Garden City. These actions reflect ongoing investments in public health infrastructure and services to support vulnerable populations in the county.
