6. Request from the Social Services Department for Approval of an Electing County
Status Designation for the FY 07-09 Work First Program: Social Services Director Don
Wall said that on March 12, 2007, the Welfare Reform Planning Committee unanimously voted
to recommend that Iredell County remain an Electing County for FY 07-09. He said that even
though the General Assembly was proposing cash assistance reductions for "electing" counties,
this status would still be more financially beneficial than "standard" due to the following:
• An Electing County must spend only 90% Maintenance of Effort while a standard county must
spend 100%. ( Maintenance of Effort savings for Iredell County are $147,793 per year.)
