He said that the first will serve youth and adults, the latter only adults. He said <br /> 8 staff are looking at operating cost needs and the current estimate is a subsidy of $4 million <br /> 9 annually. He said they will dig into those numbers more. <br /> 10 Commissioner Hamilton said she is currently serving on the Alliance Health Board and <br /> 11 asked about their input on the project. <br /> 12 Travis Myren said they have been at the planning meetings and they plan to ask them <br /> 13 about a financial contribution. He said Alliance will establish the reimbursement rate for these <br /> 14 services. He said that a higher reimbursement rate helps the subsidy go down. <br /> 15 Commissioner Fowler said $1.8 million was set aside for the county to spend when the <br /> 16 county switched to Alliance from Cardinal. <br /> 17 Travis Myren said that money may be able to be used. <br /> 18 Commissioner Hamilton asked if this is one-time money. <br /> 19 Commissioner Fowler said yes. <br /> 20 Commissioner Portie-Ascott asked what the relationship will be with RHA. <br /> 21 Travis Myren said the county has not chosen an operator yet and RHA is serving as <br /> 22 subject matter expert during planning. He said the concept would be for the county to own the <br /> 23 facility and an operator to run the facility. <br /> 24 Commissioner Hamilton asked if the $4 million Travis Myren mentioned would be for <br /> 25 operating the facility. <br /> 26 Travis Myren said yes. <br /> 27 <br /> 28 <br /> 29 <br /> 30 <br />
