2. Food Stamp Consortium - the Welfare Department is
in the process of completing an Invitation for Bid
for a food stamp issuance contract. Proposed are
bylaws and a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with
the counties of Colusa, Glenn and Tehama for the
purpose of soliciting a single bid for food stamp
issuance. Although the consortium would seek a
single consolidated bid for food stamp issuance,
State and Federal regulation would require that
individual counties execute separate contracts with
the successful bidder. The term of the MOU is
October 31, 1996 through December 31, 1998 -
action requested - APPROVE MEMORANDUM OF
UNDERSTANDING AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN.
MOTION: I MOVE TO APPROVE THE AMENDED MEMORANDUM OF
UNDERSTANDING AS PRESENTED TO THE BOARD AT
