Business Items:
A. Review and Approval of Monthly Vouchers: Box distributed the monthly voucher report (see attached). Box reviewed the report, noting that Contracted Labor increased $4721.78 as there were more mental health service hours paid in May. Administrative decreased $5317.30 as we paid three months of bills to Catholic Charities the previous month. Community Living & Support Services increased $21,341.34 as we paid our $20,000 contract to River Valley Schools for 2009. Community Residential increased $29,831.86 as we paid multiple invoices for two Adult Family Homes that had not submitted their previous months bills. We also had two new CBRF placements that we paid for this month. Community Treatment decreased $58,651.54 as we paid three months worth of bills to Catholic Charities the previous month and only one this month. Next month we will be taking credit of $11,707.77 from LSS due to an overpayment of services for January through March. Institutions increased $32,711.55 due to an extended placement at UW Hospital for May. Energy Assistance decreased $2289.83 as we paid for two months services in April and only one in May. Accounts Receivable increased $291,920.08 due to receiving an advance from SWFCA as WPS was having trouble processing claims. This will be refunded in June to SWFCA as we have finally received payment for January through March from WPS. Motion by Fordham, seconded by Sinklair to approve the vouchers in the amount of $1,490,425.69. Motion Carried. Box reviewed a couple of business items that there were questions from the previous month. No motion was necessary.
B. CWCAC Rehabilitation Grant: No action, this item will be put on the agenda for the July meeting.
C. 2010 Position Reclassification Requests: Sue Hebel will be supervising the nurses in Family Care for at least one year, and due to this she will be assigning the CAP and Family Care supervisors additional duties. As a result of this more of Hebel's time will be charged to Family Care and save on levy. The CAP supervisor will be responsible for the budget, program reconciliation and supervision of staff. The Family Care supervisor will be in charge of hiring, disciplinary actions, day to day training and policy writing. Hebel will remain in charge of the Family Care budget. Motion by Bowers, seconded by Fordham. Motion Carried.
D. 2010 New Position Requests: Orth reported on the request for one R.N. position for the Family Care Program. There is no levy in this position as it is funded by Family Care. Motion by Fordham, seconded by Dippel to approve the request. Motion Carried.
Department Updates:
A. Form 1 & Program Grading Sheet: Orth handed out Form 1 and the Program Grading Sheet and explained the Program Grading Sheet. 90% of the budget is represented on this document. He cautioned that you can't necessarily use this document to look at the budget. He stated that you cannot cut low rated programs as some are mandated.
B. Intoxicated Driver Program Assessment Update: Orth indicated that the department is considering changing the contract from Pauquette. It is not the quality of the assessment, but the reporting is the problem as are concerns in the community. He is considering a RFP or having assessments completed in our office and have Sauk County support staff complete the state reporting. He will go back to Pauquette with the new arrangement. Staff from Pauquette would be completing the assessments in the Human Services office.
C. Long Term Care District Update: Fordham reported that the interview process for the CFO has taken place.
D. State Budget Update: Orth stated that there has been around $130,000 to $150,000 restored to Sauk County programs.
The next meeting of the Sauk County Human Services Board is scheduled for Monday, July 6, 2009 at 5:00 p.m.
Motion by Bowers, seconded by Sinklair to adjourn. Motion Carried.
