Resolution Request - Amending 2025 Budget to reflect increase in State Aid
Allocations
This resolution is focused on adjusting the 2025 budget to account for additional State Aid
received by Dutchess County's Department of Mental Health (DMH). The key points of the
resolution include:
• State Aid Increase: DMH has received additional State Aid through cost of living
adjustments (COLA) and increased contractual aid. Revised State Aid letters related to
Office of Mental Health (OMH) and Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS)
programs were used to support the resolution request.
• Pass-Through Funding: The additional funds will be passed through to contract agencies
that provide services on behalf of Dutchess County. These agencies are reliant on DMH
for funding to deliver programs funded by the state.
• No Net Impact: The resolution emphasizes that this additional funding will not impact
the county's budget, as the funds are being passed through from the state to the
contract agencies.
• County Programs and Services: DMH is not seeking to increase revenues or
appropriations for State Aid directly tied to County-provided programs or services, as
existing appropriations are sufficient to meet 2025 program needs. Additional revenue
will be recognized through year-end process to reduce the net cost to the county.
Ultimately, the resolution will authorize DMH to amend the budget to ensure the proper
distribution of these additional funds to the intended agencies.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Poughkeepsie, NY 12601
Dear Commissioner Niebuhr:
The NYS Office of Mental Health (OMH) is issuing your January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025 State Aid Letter
(SAL) to reflect your latest allocation. Your total allocation amount currently is
$18,342,098. The allocations authorized in this letter include the full annual funding for initiatives previously
authorized as well as:
Federal Funds CMHS FSC 041 and 044: The FFY 2025 awards are allocated with the January ¿ December
2025 payment dates for counties and providers that have sent in all of their federal certifications.
Please ensure the County Allocation Tracker (CAT) is updated to agree with the State Aid Letter allocations
and reflects all county contracts funded with State Aid. Questions pertaining to the CAT can be directed to
your Field Office.
Guidelines for completion of the Consolidated Fiscal Report (CFR), which includes the Consolidated Claim
Report (CCR), can be accessed through the OMH website: https://omh.ny.gov/omhweb/finance/main.htm.
The CFR must be completed by service providers that receive funding to operate an OMH program, operate
an OMH certified program or are authorized to operate an OMH program through a designation process. If any
of your providers need assistance in completing these forms, they should contact the OMH CFR Unit at
[email protected].
The Aid to Localities Spending Plan Guidelines, which outline the rules and intent of the funding, can be found
via the following link: https://apps.omh.ny.gov/omhweb/spguidelines/ and can also be obtained through your
Field Office. Please share these guidelines with your subcontract providers so that they may become familiar
with the guidelines that apply to them and refer to the guidelines as necessary.
As a reminder, failure to submit the CAT, and/or CFRICCR schedules in a timely manner may result in the
delay of subsequent State Aid payments and/or Medicaid payments
Inherent in OMH's budget and claiming policy is the expectation that your department will monitor expenditures
against budgeted costs throughout the year. Please notify your OMH Field Office of any significant fiscal or
programmatic problems as soon as they become known.
If you have questions regarding any local mental health fiscal issues, including questions regarding the
information or instructions that are included in this letter, please call Constance Bowens at OMH Hudson River
Field Office at
(845) 454-8229.
