ALCOHOL, DRUG ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH BIENNIAL PLAN <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/16/89: <br />TO: Board of County <br />Commissioners <br />DATE: August 16, 1989 FILE: <br />SUBJECT: Alcohol, Drug Abuse and <br />Mental Health Biennial <br />Plan <br />FROM: - Carolyn R. Eggert REFERENCES: <br />Chairman, 9-B Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health <br />Using the service deficiencies found throughout Martin, St. <br />Lucie, Okeechobee, Indian River and Palm Beach Counties, the <br />Boards of the 9-A and 9-B Councils have prepared their State <br />mandated biennial plan. Using the State's 5 -year plan as a <br />guide, this plan reflects what District 9 needs to do to bring <br />its services up to State requirements. <br />The State plan is almost utopian, and money will not be available <br />in the next 5 years to fully implement it. Our District 9 plan <br />is much more realistic. However, we also.reali.ze that funds will <br />not be available even at this more practical level to do it all. <br />RECOMMENDATION: / -i r�F-/ <br />I request that you approve this biennial Iplan. <br />Commissioner Eggert pointed out that the date in the,rec- <br />ommend,ation is wrong, It should be 1989-91. She emphasized that <br />the approval of this plan does not commit us to any funding. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously approved the <br />Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Biennial Plan for <br />1989-91 with the understanding that this does not <br />commit us to any funds. <br />AUG 2 2 1989 59 ROOK <br />L <br />
