MINUTES-Draft <br /> ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF HEALTH RETREAT <br /> March 2, 2024 <br /> marginalized, underserved). Mr. Privott suggested "insufficiently served" as an option, in part <br /> because it leaves the door open to increase services and thus improve equity/justice. <br /> Administrative Items <br /> Ms. Stewart briefly reviewed the major roles and responsibilities of a local BOH member, <br /> including making and approving policies, and adjudicating appeals, all of which was <br /> summarized in a one-page document which she provided to board members. <br /> Dr. Baldwin provided a short presentation covering several unusual situations related to board <br /> operations, such as what to do if a board member needs to leave during a meeting, how to <br /> handle a situation where neither the chair nor vice-chair can be present for a meeting, or how to <br /> call and coordinate a special or emergency meeting. The guidance provided was based on <br /> Fleming Bell's Suggested Rules of Procedure for Small Local Government Boards. <br /> Ms. Stewart announced that while preparing the adjudication training, the team realized that the <br /> BOH policy manual needs to be amended to clarify the adjudication timeline —due to a typo, the <br /> policy manual erroneously states that the window to begin or respond to an adjudication request <br /> is in working days, but the text should read that the window to begin or respond to an <br /> adjudication request is in calendar days. <br /> A motion was made by Dr. Alison Stuebe to correct the wording of the BOH policy <br /> manual from "business"to "calendar"in the four places where this typo was made, was <br /> seconded by Dr. Aparna Jonnal, and carried without dissent. <br /> Finally, Ms. Stewart asked the board members to review and sign their conflict of interest form, <br /> which they review annually. She reminded board members that they would need to self-disclose <br /> if a new conflict emerged over the course of the year. <br /> Wrap Up &Adjournment <br /> A motion was made by Dr. Shielda Rodgers to adjourn the retreat at 3:53 p.m., was <br /> seconded by Dr. Lee Pickett, and carried without dissent. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Quintana Stewart, MPA <br /> Orange County Health Director <br /> Secretary to the Board <br /> S:\Managers Working Files\B0H\Agendas&Abstracts\2024 Agenda and Abstracts/BOH Retreat <br /> Page 13 <br />
