RE: Transfer of Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families (TANF) Funds to Weld County
Please review and indicate if you would like a work session prior to placing this item on the
Board's agenda.
Request Board Approval of the Department's Transfer of Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families (TANF) from Montrose County and Delta County to Weld County. Montrose County and
Delta County have agreed to transfer Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds to Weld
County. Montrose will transfer $225,000.00, and Delta will transfer $150,000.00. Per the State, a county
may transfer a portion of its underspent TANF allocation to another county so long as one of the county's
submits a letter to the State. The letter submitted must be signed by the respective county's signature
authority, acknowledge the specific transfer dollar amount, and communicate that the receiving county
has agreed to take responsibility for the corresponding Maintenance of Effort (MOE) for the amount
transferred.
For purposes of these transfers, Montrose has drafted a letter that will be signed by their Board. Weld
County has drafted the letter for the transfer from Delta and it requires the Chair's signature.
I do not recommend a Work Session. I recommend approval of these transfers and authorize the Chair to
sign the acknowledgement letter for Delta.
