BOARD UPDATE
Budget process: Tsoumas updated the Board on the budget process and the delay due to the receipt of State of Michigan, Comprehensive Planning and Budget Contract (CPBC).
Board member search: Anderson approached Samantha Pearl as a potential Board of Health member. According to Mullett, Pearl, if accepted the Board of Health position, will need to disclose any contracts related to the Calhoun Health Plan in conjunction with the Calhoun County Public Health Department, specifically related to the transfer of county funds. Pearl will fill the remainder of Anderson’s term expiring December 31, 2008. Solis motioned for approval. Ponds seconded. All approved.
Tsoumas asked Eva to list the mandated services including our cost and revenue received from State. Include proposed revenues (e.g., $100 maximum reimbursement for school inspections and result of funding decline).
Tsoumas asked for Anderson to report to the Board some of the things he learned as a Board member and his current view as Acting Health Officer providing the Board more insight to Health Department operations.
Future presentations will include school nursing update once the survey is finalized. Tsoumas would like to see program presentations by staff (10-15 minutes).
