MINUTES - Draft <br /> ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF HEALTH <br /> August 25, 2021 <br /> • Environmental Health Earned Revenue by Source: <br /> Environmental Health earned revenue is below the budgeted projection for FY 20-21 <br /> ($53k/month) at $50.2k/month. We saw our seasonal trend of increased revenue in the <br /> third quarter of the year due to spring pool inspections and better weather for outdoor <br /> inspections and site visits. EH staff have worked hard to continue OSWP inspections <br /> during the pandemic with little to no in-person required of residents. FY 20-21 YTD <br /> revenue totals $602k compared to FY 19-20 YTD revenue of$552k. <br /> • Grants Fund Revenue: <br /> FSA has drawn all $300k of the multi-year Kenan grant and have received authorization <br /> to continue to use this funding into next fiscal year in order to fully expend the grant. FSA <br /> will rely predominantly on county general funds next fiscal year as staff move away from <br /> the pandemic response and back to FSA duties on a full time basis. <br /> The BOH members had questions and comments that were addressed by Ms. Quatrone <br /> and Ms. Stewart. <br /> VI. Action Items (Non-Consent) <br /> A. New Board Member Recommendation <br /> As of June 30, 2021, the BOH Engineering Representative seat was vacated by Timothy Smith. <br /> An ad hoc committee consisting of Bruce Baldwin, Jessica Frega, Aparna Jonnal, and Timothy <br /> Smith, with guidance from Sam Lasris, was formed tasked with finding a replacement. A phone <br /> interview occurred on July 14'. Co-chair, Bruce Baldwin, gave a brief background of Tony <br /> Whitaker reiterating some of the information sent to the Board prior to tonight's meeting. Sam <br /> Lasris thanked everyone for their efforts. <br /> Motion to recommend Tony Whitaker to the BOCC as the BOH Engineering <br /> Representative was made by Bruce Baldwin, seconded by Alison Stuebe, and carried <br /> without dissent. <br /> B. One Orange Countywide Racial Equity Plan — Community Engagement Meeting <br /> Quintana Stewart, Health Director and member of the county's racial equity team, One Orange, <br /> requested the Board's assistance in facilitating a community engagement session with the <br /> community to get feedback on the countywide racial equity plan. There are five questions <br /> posed to get feedback. <br /> • What three results would you like to see as a result of this plan? <br /> • What sections of this plan will help us achieve those results? <br /> • Who should be involved in future community engagement? <br /> • Who is negatively affected by using this framework/plan? <br /> • What do you see as the most critical racially equitable outcomes? <br /> After some discussion, it was agreed that the community engagement session which would be a <br /> part of next month's Board meeting. Annette Moore, Director of Human Rights and Relations, <br /> will facilitate it. <br /> S:\Managers Working Files\BOH\Agenda &Abstracts\2021 Agenda &Abstracts/ <br /> August Page 5 <br />
