After numerous meetings which included <br /> representatives from the two school systems, recreation departments, and the <br /> community action agency, it was concluded that greater attention needed to be <br /> focused upon coordination in the northern end of the County.

Such programs <br /> were described to HSAC. After considerable .discussion the following recommen- <br /> dations received the unanimous support of voting members of HSAC, and we <br /> recommend them to the County Board of Commissioners for their consideration: <br /> A. That the Orange County Board of Commissioners guarantee up to <br /> $2,000 in losses to the Orange County Schools in the operation <br /> of the 1980 Stammer Natritiaa Program. <br /> B. That the Orange County Board of Commissioners provide $8,000 <br /> for scholorships for children in AFDC families, or eligibles, <br /> that attend the 1980 Summer Camp Programs operated by the <br /> Orange County Schools. <br /> The. above recommendations are needed as part of HSAC�s mission to increase <br /> cooperation and coordination among human service agencies and decrease <br /> unnecessary duplication. <br /> Supportive documentation is attached and appropriate HSAC representatives <br /> or agency personnel will be happy to attend any meetings to expand or further <br /> explain the recommendations. <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br /> /ss <br /> Enclosure <br /> 3 <br /> i <br /> 4 <br />
