The McHenry County Mental Health Board approved a consent agenda that included draft funding agreements, an access grant and an opioid-settlement funding agreement, with a modified publicity requirement.
A board member read revised publicity language requiring providers to acknowledge McHenry County Mental Health Board funding on social media, printed materials and websites. The revised clause requires that the logo or QR code "must not be altered in any way or used in a misleading context" and says the logo should be removed after grant completion unless written approval is given.
A motion to approve the draft funding agreement, the access grant agreement and the opioid-settlement funding agreement (with the publicity change) was made and seconded; the board voted and the motion passed with seven yes votes. The roll call at the meeting identified seven members present: Chris Brun, Adam Carson, Linda Hogue, Ray Lapinus, Amy Rath, John Reiner and Carolyn Scofield. The board chair announced the motion "passed. 7 yeses."
The approved package will move forward as part of the board's FY26 funding process, which will include agency-by-agency votes at the October meeting.
The meeting record shows the board approved the consent items as a block; no abstentions or no votes were recorded for this motion.
