Health Director’s (Final…) Report <br />February, 2017 <br />• I had the following items on my list of things to finish/shore up prior to my departure: <br />o Accreditation – Done <br />o Annual Report – Done <br />o Mental Health Gap Analysis – Done with report to the BOCC on 2-21 <br />o BUILD Grant – Due 2-21. Great work/plan being overseen by Coby <br />o Gateway HUD meeting – Scheduled 2-23 <br />o Budget – Being presented to BOH 2-22 <br />• I met with Dorothy last week to orient her to any pending issues/changes since she was <br />here last. <br />• I met with our newest Board member, Jennifer Deyo (pharmacist rep) and conducted <br />her new BOH member orientation. I also sent her the latest on the HD recruitment, so <br />she is in the loop. She will be joining us for the meeting next week. There was an issue <br />with the BOH’s recommendation for the at-large appointment. I hope we’ll have that <br />resolved by the 21st. <br />• #OWASAWATER as it is affectionately known has dominated things since 2-3. I sent you <br />an update last week and the bulk of the work now is: 1) supporting OWASA in their <br />community presentations (Chamber meeting last week and Chapel Hill Town Council <br />Monday night, BOCC 2-21); 2) dealing with the anti-fluoride cabal and 3) working with <br />the EOC to identify lessons learned and how to improve our next response. <br />
