Paid 25,000.00 for Code Blue, funded elsewhere since 2021

Fact. The City has paid Tri-County Community Action for Code Blue, a cold-weather emergency program, every season since 2020-21. Until March 2026 every payment came from accounts other than the settlement account. The current fund paid 23,000.00 on 02/16/2021, 25,000.00 on 02/01/2022 and 16,666.67 on 11/14/2022. A federal CDBG account labeled Code Blue paid 10,000.00 on 03/15/2022 and 10,000.00 on 10/04/2022. The County shared-services grant accounts paid 41,666.67 for 2022, 58,333.34 for 2023, 50,000.00 for 2024 in two payments of 25,000.00, and 25,000.00 for 2025 by check 473 on 02/17/2026. County receipts on the Code Blue revenue account total 175,000.01, the same as those four grant accounts paid out. Fourteen days after check 473, on 03/03/2026, the settlement account paid Tri-County 25,000.00 by check 478, described Code Blue Donation - Opioid. No County receipt matches it. On 04/24/2026 the City opened a second 25,000.00 Code Blue line on the 2025 County grant account and deleted it. On 06/30/2026 the budget set up the 2025 County grant at 25,000.00. It had set up the 2024 grant at 50,000.00 on 07/15/2025. The Code Blue trust also paid Tri-County 54,400.79 between 11/17/2025 and 05/05/2026. The FY2026 report does not name Code Blue. It counts the payment inside the Recovery Centers of America figure. Inference. The settlement payment took the place of the second County installment the program carried the year before. The records show the pattern. That the settlement money took over that cost is this project's inference from them.
