Patrick addressed the Board with the power point presentation. Review current fiscal year forecast.
Pat Leary addressed the Board. Noted that expenditures will exceed revenue for a few more years. Prop 172 (Public Safety) funds and realignment have increased this year, which is good news. Hope that it will continue. For 10/11, hope that they stay flat, not up or down. This is part of the recovery process. Budget comprised of areas with the money that we allocated in January, we would have been below mandatory DESS required spending. Sup. Rexroad left dais at 9:40 am and returned at 9:42 am.
Patrick addressed the board with conclusion with two action items requested from the Board. Sup. Thomson wanted to thank staff and dept. heads for getting this info early with the Feb. summit and the fact the Yolo County is on the forefront on confronting problems. Really appreciates the informative dialogue.
Sup. Rexroad - spoke of program changes in the Health Dept. and ADMH and changes. Health dept. changed significantly since the workshop. For DESS and ADMH - would like to know how those services are delivered and overview of how they're being delivered. We could come back this afternoon or tomorrow to further discuss the programs going forward in ADMH and Health. Will begin right after lunch Health and ADMH. Pat explained the smoothing over of the increases the County will face in re-paying CalPERS. Duane - commented - about excess spending comment Pat made earlier. Depts. did not exceed appropriations, however, the revenue was shorter than anticipated. That is how we ended up in deficits. Sup. McGowan left dais at 9:55 am and returned at 9:59 am Chair - discuss OES. Public Guardian, Pub Def, Would like Co. Counsel to set up c/s for tomorrow about supplantation in health budget. Jim - add'l cuts in reorg - UC Co-op Ext. - Look at $210,000 we're spending in clerical to keep other items from being cut. Look at Parks - take close look we aren't losing revenue. Probation - concerned we don't have enough officers to watch over the adults. chair - Veterans Service Officer - Child Welfare. Matt - would like to know how everything is funded and then they'll be able to make choices. Sheriff - reduce Leinberger services. Mike -
Jeff Reisig addressed the Board. Two issues to advocate for today - Would like to resolve the issue of the Chief Deputy DA. Would hope that the Board gives the CAO direction. Simply illegal to use this money - Asset forfeiture money - to supplant the budget. Feels this is dangerous to use these funds. This money is their legal contingency for unanticipated expenses. Motion - Pr/Ch fund chief dep position and continue to use asset forf. funds in the way they're used (at 10:16 am) . Two sep. motions 1) Pr/Ch - Chief Deputy 5/0 2) Asset Seizure Pr/Ch - not to allocate to budget but leave to discretion of DA - maintain status quo how funds to be used - 3/2 - McGowan and Thomson - no
Motion to reconsider - R/Mc 5/0 Motion Pr/Ch - remove Asset Forfeiture money - to continue status quo 4/1 - Thomson (no)
HR discussion - cuts with reorg - Was there a way to make further staffing cuts - Mindi addressed Board. Could cut one position and push more responsibility on other departments HR duties. Would save approx. $65,000. Mike would like to wait on this matter. Sup. Rexroad left dais at 10:27 a.m. and returned at 10:28 a.m.
UC Coop extension - Kent Witam - dept. chair - Have only three co. employees left in office. Sup. Mc. left dais at 10:31 a.m. - and returned at 10:32 a.m. If there were further cuts to this office, the program would be eliminated. Kent would recommend this to the University. Possible savings would be $30,000 a year if field rep cut. Duane supports this program. This is the connection between the University and the farmers. Chair - what would be the impact with the loss of the Field Rep. - Kent explained that this person maintains all of the equipment. Without him there would be no one to do that. Fewer services to the farmers. What is our #1 priority to the county. Is not interested in further cuts to this dept. Will explore grant funding. Duane explained they do un-biased research and Kent confirmed this.
Matt - still great concerns on fixing this budget. It's a question of what's important and what's not. Chair - direct Patrick to work with the dept. to find more money.
Patrick - checking with Board for direction. Mike - if there's places to save money in the new re-org chart, than come back and show where more cuts may come from. Suggests a motion is necessary if there is something that should be off the table.
Break for 10 minutes at 11:03 am
returned from break at 11:19 am
outline for today Sheriff, then Probation and DESS Sheriff Tom Lopez in for Sheriff Prieto Questions about Leinberger closure and the impact. Doesn't really want to close, but understand dilemma. Today there are about 40 open total beds at Leinberger and Detention facility. If they were to close 30 beds (occupied by the workers (inmates) who work in the kitchen at the Monroe Center.) Could make that move without too much disruption. All female bedding has been moved into Monroe. Also reduced correctional officers. 30 beds would only be a partial closure and the reduction of 25 officers. Prefer not to close all 96 beds. The medical costs for the fed. prisoners is included in the daily rate they pay. Fed. Consent Decree comes about when they are at 90 % capacity. Then people will be released - not a mass of people at once. Sup. Mc left the dais at 11:28 am
Probation - Marjorie Sup. Mc returned at 11:32 am Assumptions - Case management - If we could reduce the number of crimes being committed, then the savings in the long run is tremendous. If they did not have to go to the 36 hour work week, then the savings resulted from this could be much better utilized. Potential to use $145,000 if we don't do the 36 hr workweek, could use the money for a couple more probation officers.
Pam - DESS addressed the Board
Return after lunch - OES, Parks, ADMH, BOS
Returned at 1:06 pm. Everyone here
OES - Bill Martin addressed the Board Patrick addressed the Board about the Tribe funding OES Bill indicated that thru Co. Counsel they have created an MOU to provide services for the 2010/11 year. Chair - on agenda on how we organize the two things (OES and dispatch) in the future - tribe, cities involved and university. Her hope that OES and dispatch can come together. Allow tribe to have a vote at dispatch. The reason the Tribe contributed funds is because they wanted to finish their emergency planning for the Capay Valley. Bill responded that he will begin looking at collaboration.
Parks - Warren Westrup How do the parks pay for themselves? Not enough fees collected to cover the cost of the maintenance.. Some parks do not charge fees. Cache Creek campgrounds and Grasslands does recoup the costs to cover the maintenance. What this dept has done is brought in grant funds and have done some really good improvements. $5.2 million in grants - some have contract clauses that if the park is closed, the county would have to pay the money back for what they've used. The current cuts include the parks manager, but the 4 employees who remain will be stretched. Boat launch - no fee at Clarksburg due to its remoteness - the iron ranger that was there was stolen. May be getting a grant to cover a park host there. Grants don't usually include operational component. If you mothball these parks, you're going to have a more difficult time bringing them back. He suggested positioning the County to look forward. The re-org plan would keep the parks open at a very low level safely until better times come along. Keeping parks open to meet the grant requirements and also the infrastructure of the parks. Mike - who are our partners? We need to look at this in the re-organization. Chair - parks are an investment and asset to this County. Patrick - they will be doing a park by park analysis. Jim - just make sure there is a sustainability in the parks.
Veteran Services - Cass addressed the Board Chair - what is the funding for the Veteran Services What do you have and what do you stand to lose? Some money from State and most money comes from the County. Chair - does not like not having someone to serve the veterans of this County. Last year we used Pomona funding. Pat Leary - ideally they would like to maintain two positions. Looking at maybe combining the VA staff in with the CAO for provision of more support. Pat - looking for adequate support at their current location instead. Matt does not think that the VA belongs with the CAO. Public Guardian's office has shrunk considerably and cannot offer support. Jim asked about DESS helping out. Pat said this was at DESS at one time. Where are the best services provided? Chair does not feel the veterans should be going to the social services building to get services. Want to keep the program so find the best way to keep it going.
Public Health - Pat addressed Board Pat spoke of elimination of 4 programs to achieve an overall savings of $700,000. Still need 1.2 million in general fund to continue funding. Proposed Elimination- CHC fee reduction - Community Development and Education Casa del Sol - planning operation Healthwise 2 fee proposals - for animal shelter - quarantine fee and animals In 2014 the Indigent Program will change so we will not be in that business anymore, but it is not clear what our responsibility will be. Robyn spoke and said that her office has been working with the departments regarding funding.
ADMH - Kim Suderman addressed the Board EPSDT (kid's medicale)- Matt - how have we resolved this? Kim responded how these services will be continuing - one contract coming to the Board next year. SB163 - wraparound (placement) - keeping kids local. RFP'g - community based services, school, and 0-5 children, Child welfare agencies - this contract was cut - Jim - is the recommendation is keep it the same or reduce? Kim said to reduce next year. From $265,000 to $160,000 this year. Suicide prevention - 2 contracts - crisis call line (have agreed to decrease the contract by $30,000 - the contractor is looking at other sources of revenue) and formal crisis prevention - decreased some for next year. Juv. Justice Probation - CommuniCare - cut a little further and same time partnering with Probation. Really working to do one contract with CommuniCare as opposed to several different contracts l. Pine Tree - does not need to be decreased for next year. Residential services. Yolo Strides - has a reduction - but they have been creative in continuing the program as it was changed. Also looking at leasing some space in the W. Sac clinic - integrated within mental health services in the county. Families First - SB163 wraparound provider - continuing contract - 3 year cycle - Community based services.
Matt - is there anything else in her dept. that they Board should know about? 5150 - will be bringing further analysis back to the Board. CONREP - talked about it going back to the State. Needs formal action from the Board to release this program back to the Board. Mark Ryan addressed the Board regarding CONREP. The County would no longer have oversight if it goes back to the State. Motion R/Pr 5/0 to send CONREP contract back to the State.
break 2:52 pm
returned at 3:01
IT - Kevin Cut of $400,000 to be concerned about. 80% of their office is staff. Chair - concerned about reductions to this department in regards to technology. Patrick is also struggling with the gap in this department.
Patrick - trapper update - budget going forward, it is not included in the budget yet. Will be discussed with cities next week. USDA can contract direct with cities for city services. After meeting with the cities, he can bring a report back if that is the Board' s desire. They're looking into contracting directly with USDA for unincorporated service. Have discussion with Farm Bureau and Cattleman' s Association to help with paying for trapper, since Co. is paying $1.2 million for Williamson Act. The Board's direction would be to keep this position and have Patrick talk to various entities to see if they're willing to support it and return to board.
The Board's budget: Some reductions - transportation/travel, food Committee to look at possibilities - form a subcommittee. Matt - morale and leadership role - what is the BOS going to do? Should eliminate the 2nd deputy in the office. Would like to discuss this. Mike - provided comments in favor of not cutting the 2nd deputy. Chair agrees with Sup. McGowan. Sup. Provenza - should have a lean budget and willing to work with a subcommittee. Sup. Rexroad - per the graph - we are not even in the bottom yet.
Patrick feels he has direction from the Board to prepare the proposed budget. ***Motion - Pr /Mc option A and creation of board sub-committee of Provenza and McGowan to look at the Board's budget 5/0 If the Board approves the loan today from the landfill for the mental health and public safety deficit, the CAO's office would work on a repayment schedule and bring back to the Board. Patrick - grants can be risky especially if it s covering salaires. *****Motion - Pr/R to address loan 5/0

The Board's direction would be to keep this position and have Patrick talk to various entities to see if they're willing to support it and return to board.
The Board's budget: Some reductions - transportation/travel, food Committee to look at possibilities - form a subcommittee. Matt - morale and leadership role - what is the BOS going to do? Should eliminate the 2nd deputy in the office. Would like to discuss this. Mike - provided comments in favor of not cutting the 2nd deputy. Chair agrees with Sup. McGowan. Sup. Provenza - should have a lean budget and willing to work with a subcommittee. Sup. Rexroad - per the graph - we are not even in the bottom yet.
Patrick feels he has direction from the Board to prepare the proposed budget. ***Motion - Pr /Mc option A and creation of board sub-committee of Provenza and McGowan to look at the Board's budget 5/0 If the Board approves the loan today from the landfill for the mental health and public safety deficit, the CAO's office would work on a repayment schedule and bring back to the Board. Patrick - grants can be risky especially if it s covering salaires. *****Motion - Pr/R to address loan 5/0
adjourned at 3:58 pm
