Court trims external nonprofit requests while preserving senior and transit matches
Nonprofit agencies requested $720,099 from the county this year. The judge said the county must continue required matches for aging services and STAR Transit and recommended prioritizing the Child Welfare Board and senior feeding programs while reducing other discretionary requests.

Commissioners highlighted the Meals on Wheels waitlist — "54 people waiting on the list" — as a reason to protect senior services. They agreed to take one position away from a nonprofit allocation and adjust one salary, with final allocations to be reflected in the proposed budget.
