Aistrope said the county still would require a voucher submitted with the reason for the requested amount. Lundgren said that would not be a problem. Aistrope made a motion to authorize the Public Health Nurse to use county grant money for public health, listing the use of the money requested on a voucher, for the remainder of fiscal year 2002/2003, ending June 30, 2003.
