• Union County Community Arts Council: $52,018 (no increase over FY2025)
• Community Health Services of Union County: $150,000 (no increase over FY2025)
• Turning Point: $60,000 ($10,000 increase over FY 2025)
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding for these contracts is included in the FY2026 Proposed Operating & Capital Budget and is pending adoption by the Board of County Commissioners.
