Carbon County is hoping to become the administrator of the subsidized child care program for Carbon and Monroe counties.
During the county commissioners' meeting last week, the board voted to submit the county's best and final offer to the state Department of Public Welfare for the operations of the program. The county's total offer, which is broken down into five years in the proposal, is $4,195,089. The annual costs would cover employee salaries, indirect costs, supplies, travel, the facility, telephone, postage, and more.
