INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH UNIT <br />BUDGET REDUCTION EXERCISE <br />January 12, 1995 <br />Joyce Johnston Carlsand,. Director of Welfare and IRC <br />representative to HRS District 15, emphasized that District 15 is <br />the only brand new district in the state and it has been hit harder <br />than some of the other counties. In her opinion, departments that <br />were cut only 12.5% rather than 25% are from entitlement programs <br />that push dependency. <br />Commissioner Bird stated he would have a hard time opposing a <br />cut if it was being applied fairly to everyone, but Commissioner <br />Eggert pointed out that District 15 is being treated differently <br />because it is a totally new district. She emphasized that we <br />actually are taking a 40% cut, rather than 25%. <br />�Ih: <br />January 17, 1995 wr 94 pni.130 <br />ELIMINATION/ <br />PRIORITY <br />REDUCTION <br />PROGRAM <br />FTE <br />AMOUNT <br />1. <br />Reduction <br />Vital Statistics <br />1.00 <br />$ 35,000 <br />2. <br />Elimination <br />Dental Program <br />1.00 <br />74,1530 <br />3. <br />Elimination <br />AIDS HE/RR <br />0.25 <br />10,470 <br />4. <br />Elimination <br />Supplemental School Health <br />3.00 <br />162,945 <br />5. <br />Reduction <br />Adult Primary Care <br />5.00 <br />250,000 <br />6. <br />Elimination <br />Immunization Outreach <br />.50 <br />20,400 <br />7. <br />Elimination <br />Group Care Facility Program <br />0.75 <br />35,000 <br />8. <br />Elimination <br />Migrant Health Program <br />0.00 <br />1,240 <br />9. <br />Reduction <br />TB Community Outreach <br />1.50 <br />45,000 <br />10. <br />Reduction <br />WIC <br />2.00 <br />63,000 <br />11. <br />Reduction <br />Comprehensive Child Health <br />4.50 <br />216,000 <br />12. <br />Reduction <br />Food Hygiene Program <br />0.50 <br />.13,500 <br />13. <br />Reduction <br />S.T.D. <br />0.50 <br />28,001 <br />14. <br />Reduction <br />I.P.O. <br />2.50 <br />126,500 <br />23.00 <br />$1,081,586 <br />January 12, 1995 <br />Joyce Johnston Carlsand,.
