6 <br /> 1 Commissioner Hamilton asked if the department's revenue comes from a particular <br /> 2 source. <br /> 3 Erika Bryant, Child Support Services Director, said the department is 66.67% federally <br /> 4 funded, and receives that much reimbursement, which accounts for the extra coming in. <br /> 5 Commissioner Hamilton asked if there is a formula it is based on. <br /> 6 Erika Bryant said it is 67% roughly. She said the department sends in the <br /> 7 reimbursements that are allowable and receives the reimbursement at that rate. She said the <br /> 8 department receives a state estimate each year, based on the amount the department is <br /> 9 allowed to spend, and it went up significantly this year. <br /> 10 Commissioner Dorosin asked if the halftime attorney position is a full time position that <br /> 11 would be divided into two duties. <br /> 12 Travis Myren said yes, half of the time will be in the County Attorney's office, to account <br /> 13 for Annette Moore becoming the full time Human Rights and Relations Director, and the other <br /> 14 half would be dedicated to child support. <br /> 15 Commissioner Dorosin asked if all of the departments in the Human Services category <br /> 16 were exempt from the 5% cut in the operating budget. <br /> 17 Travis Myren said he thinks that is true. <br /> 18 Bonnie Hammersley said the Department on Aging and the Library were required to cut <br /> 19 5%. She said Travis Myren would note which departments had to cut or not, as they come up in <br /> 20 the presentation. She clarified that mandated safety net services were not required the 5% <br /> 21 reduction. <br /> 22 Chair Price asked about the decrease in operations between the department requested <br /> 23 amount and the Manager's recommended budget. <br /> 24 Erika Bryant said the contracted attorney was previously part of the operations, so there <br /> 25 is a decrease with that position going away. <br /> 26 Travis Myren resumed the PowerPoint presentation: <br /> 27 <br /> 28 Slide #9 <br /> Human Services <br /> • Child Support Services—page 107 <br /> New Child Support Orders Total Child Support[.R tled <br /> Established ae — <br /> 9gs5mnm <br /> es�m* <br /> ffi x� <br /> Federalwwxr in.lase dunrvw mcPor nNhiduais aceomno odik.asslsRrse llA fcaid.task 13 of l <br /> • fiouM1 eeaMies rrere.rleilatl Mn9f Mamc <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> 29 s wsniuxuLn,t <br /> 30 <br /> 31 <br />
