SUBJECT:

IN-HOME SUPPORTIVE SERVICES PUBLIC AUTHORITY BUDGET (DISTRICT:  ALL)

In response to a 1999 State mandate requiring the establishment of an employer of record for the In-Home Supportive Services program, the Board of Supervisors took several actions.  On June 12, 2001 (1), the Board approved appropriations and established an operating fund for the Public Authority in the Health and Human Services Agency.  On June 19, 2001 (33), the Board adopted the County ordinance creating the San Diego County In-Home Supportive Services Public Authority.

This item is the next step in establishing the Public Authority as an operating entity and it requests the Public Authority Governing Body to approve a resolution adopting its administrative budget and establishing appropriations in the Public Authority Operating Fund.

Funding for this request is not included in the Public Authority FY 2001-02 Operational Plan.  If approved, this request will result in $2,923,764 in costs and revenue in the FY 2001-02 Public Authority Operating Fund.  The funding source is an Operating Transfer from the General Fund based on State Department of Social Services and Social Services Realignment revenue in the Health and Human Services Agency.  When fully staffed, the Public Authority will include 29 staff years.
