r - G <br />MAR 14 1994 BOOK 56 PACE 4 42 <br />i Commissioner Wodtke explained that the District Board <br />has voted to cease funding the IRCMHC on March 31, 1984. <br />The Center Board has filed a suit against the District Board <br />and the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative <br />Services are intervening in the situation. The State is <br />going to send in a review team to conduct it annual <br />evaluation at an earlier time and to do a more in-depth <br />study. <br />As a former member of the District Board and a present <br />member of the Center Board, Commissioner Wodtke expressed <br />concern whether the evaluation that is done by the State <br />will satisfy the District Board. <br />Commissioner Scurlock asked what type of audit or <br />evaluation is planned by the State in regard to the Center <br />refusing access to the District review team. <br />Commissioner Wodtke did not know at this time what kind <br />of a study they are considering, and explained that <br />previously the HRS has done a routine annual evaluation of <br />services rendered. He hoped they would go into greater <br />depth in this evaluation in re administrative and personnel <br />matters. <br />Chairman Scurlock felt that the air should be cleared <br />and that we should have an in-depth look and get all the <br />questions resolved. He believed that in order to have an <br />organization operate efficiently and function properly, it <br />must have a clean bill of health. <br />Commissioner Wodtke recommended that one of the other <br />commissioners be appointed to serve on the special committee <br />being formulated to assist the State review team in anyway <br />possible. The special committee is meant to act as a <br />constructive, fact-finding tool; it is not meat to <br />interfere in anyway. He pointed out that the HRS may choose <br />not to use the services of the special committee, but he is <br />49 <br />
