had been stated those fees would remain in the county to <br />help subsidize the health unit, and the contract makes it <br />sound as if it all goes to the state. <br />Dr. Tucker, County Health Director, explained that <br />there are two types of fees - state mandated and county <br />fees. He noted there is at least one more way their <br />revenues are derived, i.e., by assisting certain other state <br />agencies in their inspections of facilities such as <br />restaurants, etc. Those monies are transferred to those <br />agencies and then at the end of the year they are given to <br />the Health Department by interagency transfer. Dr.Tucker <br />informed the Board that the state has not defined all the <br />fees they are going to mandate, and, therefore, it is <br />impossible for the Department to say exactly what the County <br />fees are; they will have to wait until the state firms up <br />their policies. <br />OMB Director Barton explained how the County will be <br />credited for different fees and assured the Board that the <br />bookkeeping and accounting tracks all the different sources <br />of revenue. <br />Commissioner Bird asked if this contract is something <br />new, and the OMB Director confirmed that this is the first <br />year and it is being required in all counties. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED <br />by Commissioner Lyons, the Board unanimously <br />(4-0) approved the Standard Contract for County <br />Health Units and authorized the signature of <br />the Chairman. <br />SAID CONTRACT WILL BE PUT ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF <br />THE CLERK WHEN FULLY EXECUTED AND RECEIVED. <br />23 <br />Boor. 58 Fmu 1?9 <br />
