Reporting of Post-Employment Health Benefit Liability in Compliance with Government Accounting Standards Board Statement #45. (No general fund impact) (Nunes)
Item No. 16 - Mindi addressed the Board - Post-Employment Health Benefit Liability. Howard addressed the Board to give a summary of what this is for. Need to do this audit every two years. Sup. Rexroad asked if the post-retirement is included in the fees we charge? Patrick answered that the answer is no. Investigating two tracks - establish a trust and the 2nd is tracking by departments. This is the unfunded liability.
Sup. Provenza - How can we reduce the costs? Cap is tied to health care costs. Sup. Rexroad's concern is that financing is not getting any better. Sup. Chamberlain - what if we raised the retirement age? Mindi - they are looking into ways of addressing some of these issues. Right now we are paying-as-we-go but it would be a good idea to pre-fund so we can start paying off the liability. Howard - to be financially responsible, then we need to take care of this liability. Sup. McGowan - this is not a debt right now, as we are current - not required from a legal or solvency stand point.

Agenda item no. 21 - Chris Lee addressed the Board. Sup. Mcgowan left dais at 11:19 a.m. and returned at 11:20 a.m. Sheriff's dept. has come up with proposal. Would need only planner and their staff would pick up the balance with their staff. Matt - is the Univ. in or out? Have been included but haven't heard back from them. Little worried about 'cafeteria' style plan. Needs to know if they're in or out - not partially.
Sgt. Al Williams addressed the Board - helped draft the proposal. Initial proposal is that the grant would cover the day to day operations. Cities were concerned that without a dedicated position that they will not get what they are paying for. They are researching this and will be looking at various options. 1st proposal was all grant funding and 2nd proposal is the city's would be willing to contribute and they had suggestions. Sheriff Prieto addressed the Board. Sup. Saylor - how does this impact the two employees currently in this department? Under this scenario, they would not be used at the Sheriff's dept. The other proposal would be to keep the office as is and the cities would contribute. We don't want to diminish our services. One benefit from the Sheriff's dept, is that they are available 24/7. Sheriff dept. is very familiar with working with other entities. Involving all levels of management so everyone is trained.
Matt - coordinated effort with the cities. Close coordination with the University. Sheriff Prieto spoke about the cafeteria style. Each of the city’s are going to have to participate. Matt - advocate larger umbrella.
Patrick - next steps are to meet with Sheriff’s dept. - and will bring to City Manager’s meeting this Friday. Addressed the option to eliminate that department. Which way is best for the future?
Received update on potential future Office of Emergency Services organizational structures.
The Board of Supervisors recessed at 11:10 A.M. and reconvened at 11:15 A.M. All members were present. Chair Rexroad presided.

Workshop Summary #1
ADMH Consultant Recommendations Matrix
Patrick addressed the Board on the budget workshop. They are starting with Health. - Jill Cook, Health Director, addressed the Board. Keep two positions vacant and increasing fees to make up the difference of $173,000. Dr. Sandrock updated the Board on the Macias Report.
Juvenile health care and medication.
Next up is DESS - Pam addressed the Board. The budget is $370,000 shortfall. No longer receiving ARRA or FMAP losses. Foster care - loss of $500,000 in FMAP money - increased foster family rates by 34% - this is included in the budget. WIA potentially lose $1.7 million in ARRA funds. Calworks - $1.3 million cut - temp. suspending CalWin program - state would reduce from 60 months to 48 months. 8% cut to the funding to families in Yolo County. Getting information about getting benefits is a lot easier now. Challenges - need maintenance of effort - May not meet our MOE with current staff level. Continuation on the WIA is uncertain at the federal level. If all cuts budget, adult protective services eliminated. Reminder that they have eliminated every non-state mandate program. Looking to automation to bring costs down.
Supervisor Rexroad - Child Welfare Services have been pretty static, Pam answered. She doesn't know why the cases are decreasing. Out-of-home placement services has gone way down. Cal works - grant being cut and child care services for kids over age 11 is being eliminated. One Stop is currently open to any County residents. Haven't met the threshold for the past two years. Don left the dais at 2:03 and Mike left at 2:05 pm and he returned at 2:06 pm.
Kim Suderman addressed the Board. Two parts to her presentation. Budget first. Sup. chamb. left dais at 2:06 pm and returned at 2:09 pm. FTE decreased 51% and funding reduced 32%. Don returned at 2:07 p.m. AB 100 is done. Brainstormed ways to provide services more efficiently. Matt had a couple questions - DUI program - what is the status? Back in Sept. they transitioned to an outside provider to provide the DUI program - going smoothly. Also asked about the EPSDT - Kim replied that services are currently provided and there is no one to contract it out to at this point - still done in-house. Flat rate is provided, not for actual costs.
Next item for discussion is the matrix. PRSC - Programs, Macias and Phil Batchelor Report - considered Administration, Fiscal and operational. Provided ADMH Consultants' Review Matrix. Stood out - financial, operations of how we do business. Have been able to draw down more revenue. Example - no. 3 on the first page - proposal.
#10 on bottom of page 22 - Wellness Center.
Fran Smith addressed the Board about IHSS. 165 consumers on the books - majority are elderly. Many have dementia or other mental health issues. 327 calls last year requesting service. Backup care provider provided - 55 calls for replacement care. Have 191 providers on the registry. IHSS provides training to their providers. Yolo County benefits provided to 190 providers. She explained the background of how Public Authority came about. Back in 2001, the Board signed an ordinance creating the public authority - Limiting county's liability, so that was main reason for keeping in separate and for collective bargaining.
Pat Leary addressed the Board. DESS actually manages the public authority. Still exploring options as to how to address the $120,000 shortfall. Will be returning to the Board in May with options. Jim - this is really an important program.

Patty Wong addressed the Board. Fostering leadership outside out of our Yolo County family. Stewardship, strong local economy, Preservation, Best. Don - on the seal it says ’education, agriculture, and industry.’ Need to focus on education and industry. Open space, superior customer service, global economy. Set your goal and imagine yourself there. Now, what were the steps to get there? Sup. McGowan posed this question. See page 340 - too hard to simplify that statement regarding open space. Safety net. Patty - addressed the Board and asked them to allow them to put together a mission statement and have the board review it at a later date. (Mike and Duane)

David Morrison addressed the Board. Agenda item no. 26. Sup. Chamberlain recused himself from this item. Supervisor. Spoke about location and concerns of where it is located. Why does it need to be in this specific area - maybe a city would be a better place to locate it.
Gary Ball - architect, Dr. David Springer - addressed the issue of location. Gov't to Gov't transfer of property - also being in a remote location is better for their facility. Also feel that bringing this facility to this location will help influence DQU and a catalyst for the University. Serve 103 recognized tribes in the State of California. Support of the tribes. Don't want it centered it on the campus because it does not look very good. They do not want to be so close to the campus.
Dr. Springer acknowledged the facility is locked, but not secured, like a jail. These are all voluntary commitments. Sup. Saylor would like to look at design details. Another reason they like SW corner - DQ has a history of barricading the campus and they do not want them to deny them access to the road.
Ed Boeshanz addressed the Board for public comment.
Carolyn Toneyhill addressed the Board - regarding security. Lives in the area and is concerned about security.
Sup. Saylor supports in concept this program. Sup. Rexroad has concerns. Sup. Provenza would like questions answered first before he supports it. Sup. Saylor would like a process to address their concerns. David - no immediate deadline. Matt - it's a land use issue with 12 acres of land currently farmed. Matt - would like David to work with Supervisors Saylor and Provenza to deal with some of these issues. Mr. McGowan - one issue - sheriff service availability to protect citizens.
Carolyn Toneyhill and Ed Beoshanz addressed the Board of Supervisors on this item.
Received and filed planning analysis of the proposed Youth Regional Treatment Center. Directed staff to work with Supervisors Saylor and Provenza to resolve concerns regarding the location of the proposed facility and return to the Board with an update.

Rexroad asked if the post-retirement is included in the fees we charge? Patrick answered that the answer is no. Investigating two tracks - establish a trust and the 2nd is tracking by departments. This is the unfunded liability.
Sup. Provenza - How can we reduce the costs? Cap is tied to health care costs. Sup. Rexroad's concern is that financing is not getting any better. Sup. Chamberlain - what if we raised the retirement age? Mindi - they are looking into ways of addressing some of these issues. Right now we are paying-as-we-go but it would be a good idea to pre-fund so we can start paying off the liability. Howard - to be financially responsible, then we need to take care of this liability. Sup. McGowan - this is not a debt right now, as we are current - not required from a legal or solvency stand point.

Agenda item no. 21 - Chris Lee addressed the Board. Sup. Mcgowan left dais at 11:19 a.m. and returned at 11:20 a.m. Sheriff's dept. has come up with proposal. Would need only planner and their staff would pick up the balance with their staff. Matt - is the Univ. in or out? Have been included but haven't heard back from them. Little worried about 'cafeteria' style plan. Needs to know if they're in or out - not partially.
Sgt. Al Williams addressed the Board - helped draft the proposal. Initial proposal is that the grant would cover the day to day operations. Cities were concerned that without a dedicated position that they will not get what they are paying for. They are researching this and will be looking at various options. 1st proposal was all grant funding and 2nd proposal is the city's would be willing to contribute and they had suggestions. Sheriff Prieto addressed the Board. Sup. Saylor - how does this impact the two employees currently in this department? Under this scenario, they would not be used at the Sheriff's dept. The other proposal would be to keep the office as is and the cities would contribute. We don't want to diminish our services. One benefit from the Sheriff's dept, is that they are available 24/7. Sheriff dept. is very familiar with working with other entities. Involving all levels of management so everyone is trained.
Matt - coordinated effort with the cities. Close coordination with the University. Sheriff Prieto spoke about the cafeteria style. Each of the city’s are going to have to participate. Matt - advocate larger umbrella.
Patrick - next steps are to meet with Sheriff’s dept. - and will bring to City Manager’s meeting this Friday. Addressed the option to eliminate that department. Which way is best for the future?
Received update on potential future Office of Emergency Services organizational structures.
The Board of Supervisors recessed at 11:10 A.M. and reconvened at 11:15 A.M. All members were present. Chair Rexroad presided.

Workshop Summary #1
ADMH Consultant Recommendations Matrix
Patrick addressed the Board on the budget workshop. They are starting with Health. - Jill Cook, Health Director, addressed the Board. Keep two positions vacant and increasing fees to make up the difference of $173,000. Dr. Sandrock updated the Board on the Macias Report.
Juvenile health care and medication.
Next up is DESS - Pam addressed the Board. The budget is $370,000 shortfall. No longer receiving ARRA or FMAP losses. Foster care - loss of $500,000 in FMAP money - increased foster family rates by 34% - this is included in the budget. WIA potentially lose $1.7 million in ARRA funds. Calworks - $1.3 million cut - temp. suspending CalWin program - state would reduce from 60 months to 48 months. 8% cut to the funding to families in Yolo County. Getting information about getting benefits is a lot easier now. Challenges - need maintenance of effort - May not meet our MOE with current staff level. Continuation on the WIA is uncertain at the federal level. If all cuts budget, adult protective services eliminated. Reminder that they have eliminated every non-state mandate program. Looking to automation to bring costs down.
Supervisor Rexroad - Child Welfare Services have been pretty static, Pam answered. She doesn't know why the cases are decreasing. Out-of-home placement services has gone way down. Cal works - grant being cut and child care services for kids over age 11 is being eliminated. One Stop is currently open to any County residents. Haven't met the threshold for the past two years. Don left the dais at 2:03 and Mike left at 2:05 pm and he returned at 2:06 pm.
Kim Suderman addressed the Board. Two parts to her presentation. Budget first. Sup. chamb. left dais at 2:06 pm and returned at 2:09 pm. FTE decreased 51% and funding reduced 32%. Don returned at 2:07 p.m. AB 100 is done. Brainstormed ways to provide services more efficiently. Matt had a couple questions - DUI program - what is the status? Back in Sept. they transitioned to an outside provider to provide the DUI program - going smoothly. Also asked about the EPSDT - Kim replied that services are currently provided and there is no one to contract it out to at this point - still done in-house. Flat rate is provided, not for actual costs.
Next item for discussion is the matrix. PRSC - Programs, Macias and Phil Batchelor Report - considered Administration, Fiscal and operational. Provided ADMH Consultants' Review Matrix. Stood out - financial, operations of how we do business. Have been able to draw down more revenue. Example - no. 3 on the first page - proposal.
#10 on bottom of page 22 - Wellness Center.
Fran Smith addressed the Board about IHSS. 165 consumers on the books - majority are elderly. Many have dementia or other mental health issues. 327 calls last year requesting service. Backup care provider provided - 55 calls for replacement care. Have 191 providers on the registry. IHSS provides training to their providers. Yolo County benefits provided to 190 providers. She explained the background of how Public Authority came about. Back in 2001, the Board signed an ordinance creating the public authority - Limiting county's liability, so that was main reason for keeping in separate and for collective bargaining.
Pat Leary addressed the Board. DESS actually manages the public authority. Still exploring options as to how to address the $120,000 shortfall. Will be returning to the Board in May with options. Jim - this is really an important program.

Set your goal and imagine yourself there. Now, what were the steps to get there? Sup. McGowan posed this question. See page 340 - too hard to simplify that statement regarding open space. Safety net.

David Morrison addressed the Board. Agenda item no. 26. Sup. Chamberlain recused himself from this item. Supervisor. Spoke about location and concerns of where it is located. Why does it need to be in this specific area - maybe a city would be a better place to locate it.
Gary Ball - architect, Dr. David Springer - addressed the issue of location. Gov't to Gov't transfer of property - also being in a remote location is better for their facility. Also feel that bringing this facility to this location will help influence DQU and a catalyst for the University. Serve 103 recognized tribes in the State of California. Support of the tribes. Don't want it centered it on the campus because it does not look very good. They do not want to be so close to the campus.
Dr. Springer acknowledged the facility is locked, but not secured, like a jail. These are all voluntary commitments. Sup. Saylor would like to look at design details. Another reason they like SW corner - DQ has a history of barricading the campus and they do not want them to deny them access to the road.
Ed Boeshanz addressed the Board for public comment.
Carolyn Toneyhill addressed the Board - regarding security. Lives in the area and is concerned about security.
Sup. Saylor supports in concept this program. Sup. Rexroad has concerns. Sup. Provenza would like questions answered first before he supports it. Sup. Saylor would like a process to address their concerns. David - no immediate deadline. Matt - it's a land use issue with 12 acres of land currently farmed. Matt - would like David to work with Supervisors Saylor and Provenza to deal with some of these issues. Mr. McGowan - one issue - sheriff service availability to protect citizens.
Carolyn Toneyhill and Ed Beoshanz addressed the Board of Supervisors on this item.
Received and filed planning analysis of the proposed Youth Regional Treatment Center. Directed staff to work with Supervisors Saylor and Provenza to resolve concerns regarding the location of the proposed facility and return to the Board with an update.
