The Register of Deeds Office has experienced a significant increase in the number of land <br />related transactions that are processed. While the increased volume in work has resulted in <br />higher than anticipated expenditures for items such as supplies and temporary personnel, it has <br />also resulted in revenue collections that are well beyond the current year budget. Staff estimates <br />the department will generate approximately $50,000 in additional unbudgeted revenue for the <br />remainder of fiscal year 2002 -03. This budget amendment increases the budgeted revenues to <br />be more in line with current year receipts and allows for the expenditures related to the increased <br />departmental activity. (See Attachment 1, column #1) <br />Department of Social Services <br />2. The Department of Social Services recently received a reimbursement related to a Medicaid <br />overpayment case. While the settlement totaled $100,000, Orange County's share is equivalent <br />to the County's Medicaid match of 5.66 percent of the total or $5,660. The County will forward <br />the remaining $94,340 to the State as reimbursement of its share of the settlement. This budget <br />amendment provides for the receipt of the settlement funds and allows for reimbursement to the <br />State for its respective share of the settlement. (See Attachment 1, column #2). <br />
