<br />currently have is being taken away, and that the facility in Brevard is part of District 7. She was <br />not sure how Indian River County handled funding and asked how it was done. <br /> <br />Administrator Baird <br /> thinks it is handled through the Clerk of the Circuit Court (through <br />the Judges) and promised to check on that. <br /> <br />Commissioner Bowden <br /> felt the issues really needed to be addressed and related a similar <br />situation with the County jail housing mental health patients that really do not belong there. <br /> <br />Commissioner Voltz <br /> recalled a comment about how Orange County got such a beautiful <br />facility when Brevard could not get any money. The response to that was because Brevard was <br />part of another District (Palm Beach or Martin), Orange County was getting all of Brevard’s <br />money. She was not sure how that process worked. <br /> <br />Administrator Baird <br /> explained that districts are run by judicial districts and ours is <br />Martin, St Lucie, Okeechobee and Indian River. He said a lot of our Baker Act people end-up in <br />Fort Pierce facilities. <br /> <br />Brevard’s City ManagerDon Lusk, <br /> addressed questions from Commissioner Voltz <br />regarding funding. He explained that funding is set up along judicial districts, and the DCF <br />districts. He also explained why a lot of the funding never get to Brevard because of the “model <br />receiving facility” that was created in Orange County to operate as a holding area where law <br />enforcement officers could drop off people until beds were available. He said although the <br />Legislature has allocated “equalization dollars” they never got to Brevard County. <br /> <br />Commissioner Voltz <br /> asked whether it was correct to say the money that comes from the <br />State, the County gets, and they in turn give it to Circles of Care for the Baker Act. <br /> <br />October 25, 2006 <br />9 <br /> <br />Joint Workshop / Brevard <br /> <br />
