IN FISCAL YEAR 2008-2009
WHEREAS, the State Legislature enacted Assembly Bi111491 in fiscal year 1991-92 to
give counties a source of funding to provide public health, mental health, and social services
programs for which responsibility was transferred to counties through the realignment of
programs; .and ,
~~iEREAS, realignment provided flexibility to counties to address local conditions
within Section 17600.20(a) of California Welfare and Institutions. Code which states: "Any
county or city or city and county may reallocate money among accounts in the local health and
welfare fund, not to exceed 10% of the amount deposited in the account from which the funds are
reallocated for that fiscal year;" and
WIiEREAS, revenues to support public assistance programs require a $1,466,374 transfer
from the Public Health Realignment Fund to the Social Services Realignment Fund, which
represents 10% of the total Public Health realignment revenue expected to be received in fiscal
year 2008-2009, which is within the statutory transfer limit.
WHEREAS, if Public Health Realignment revenues received in fiscal year 2008-2009 are
less than anticipated the Public Health Realignment transfer to Social Services shall be adjusted
downward to equal 10% of the total Public Health realignment revenue received as required by
the statutory transfer limit.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Supervisors authorize the
transfer from the Public Health Realignment Fund to the Social Services Realignment Fund of
$1,466,374 or 10% of the revenue received in the Public Health Realignment Fund, whichever is
less, far fiscal year 2008-2009 and make the finding that the transfer of realignment revenues is
based on the most cost-effective use of available revenues to maximize client outcomes.
