PURPOSE: To approve proposed budget ordinance amendments.
BACKGROUND:
1. Recent statutory changes in deed recording cancellations, combined with increased activity in refinancing existing
mortgages, has resulted in a need to increase the operating budget for the Register of Deeds. This budget amendment
increases the Register of Deeds operating budget by $10,000. Unanticipated revenues from recording fees will off-set
this increase in budgeted expenditures. (See block#3, page 2)
2. The Orange County Department of Social Services has received a reallocation of State Day Care funds. These additional funds
total $185,784, and no County match is required for their receipt. (See block#1, page 2)
3. Emergency Food and Shelter funds, in the amount of$5,987, have been awarded to Orange County. These funds will be
budgeted in the Miscellaneous function and will be administered by the Department of Social Services. No County match is
required for the receipt of these funds. (See block#3, page 2).
4. Additional State Food and Lodging funds have been received by the Orange County Health Department. These funds,
totalling $5,015, will be used for operating expenditures and for equipment to support the Environmental Health
program in this department. (See block#4, page 2).
5. On March 23, the Board of County Commissioners approved the implementation of the Carolina ACCESS program in
Orange County. Objectives of this managed care program include improving access to primary care services for
Medicaid recipients, reducing unnecessary or inappropriate use of medical services, and containing overall costs.
Local administration of this program will be provided by Orange County's Department of Social Services. The total annual
cost of personnel for this program is approximately $28,500. Of this total cost, $14,000 will be funded with federal funds,
$12,000 in state funds, and$2,500 in county funds. This amendment establishes the budget for this program for the
remainder of fiscal year 1992-93 and authorizes 1.0 full time equivalent positons to support the program. (See block#5, page 2)
RECOMMENDATION:
The Manager recommends that the Board of Commissioners adopt the proposed budget ordinance amendments and authorize 1.0
full-time equivalent positions for the Carolina ACCESS program in the Department of Social Services.
