Background General Fund Health Department 1. On June 6, 1994, the Board of Commissioners approved an amendment to the 1994-95 Health Department Consolidated Contract for the EPSDT program. This amendment, totalling $10,000, provides "bridge" funding to continue this outreach program ("Health Check") and the two permanent time-limited positions associated with this program through September 30, 1994. The attached grant project ordinance, Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT) Outreach Program Grant Project Ordinance, reflects the additional funds. Sheriff Department 2. On August 8, 1994, the Board of Commissioners approved a bid award for the purchase of ninety 45 caliber semi-automatic pistols for the Orange County Sheriffs Department. The anticipated expenditure for weapons and accessories is$56,272. Drug forfeiture money ($28,814), donations ($11,349), money from the sale of weapons ($15,151), and unanticipated forfeitures ($958)will be used to finance this purchase. The attached budget amendment allocates these funds for this purchase. 3. The Orange County Sheriffs Department is the recipient of a two year North Carolina Department of Crime Control and Public Safety grant to enable the County to establish a Crisis Intervention Team. On August 8, 1994, the Board of Commissioners accepted these funds and established 2.0 full time equivalent positions (1.50 FTE for the Crisis Intervention Program and .50 FTE for the Violence Prevention/School Resources Program). The total first year budget for the Crisis Intervention Program is $80,671. Of this total, $59,756 will be grant funds with the remaining $20,915 being County match. This match, which was included in the County's 1994-95 approved budget, is comprised of$9,990 in Community Based Alternative (CBA) funds, $8,000 in County funds, and $2,925 from in-kind rental space for this program. The attached grant project ordinance, Crisis Intervention Program Grant Project Ordinance, reflects the receipt of first year funding. The Violence Prevention/School Resources Program Grant Project Ordinance is also attached and reflects the additional grant funded .50 FTE position approved by the Board on August 8. r 2 Miscellaneous/Debt Service 4. The original budget ordinance for fiscal year 1994-95 included $37,500 in the Miscellaneous (Appropriation) function. This amount was, however, allocated for payment of debt service. This technical amendment transfers this amount from the Miscellaneous Appropriation function to the Debt Service function. Housing and Community Development 5. Orange County has been awarded additional funds for its Housing (Section 8) programs. These funds, totalling $64,987, are for the Voucher Program.
