3. BOARD COMMITTEE REPORTS
Mr. Barber entered the following statement into the record:
Mister Chairman, periodically I publicly disclose at a Board
meeting that I am employed as a teacher for the Chesterfield
County School System. Because of my years of experience as a
teacher in the County's school system and in other school
systems, I believe that I am particularly able to analyze
issues that affect our schools. Public dialogue involving the
school system is even more important now that the County has an
elected School Board. The Virginia Conflict of Interests Act
provides that I am legally permitted to participate and vote on
issues which affect school employees such as myself. By this
statement, I am publicly disclosing my employment as a teacher
and stating that I am able to participate fairly, objectively
and in the public interest on school-related matters including
the budget that we will address in the coming months. School
issues are so important in the County that I believe that it is
my duty to continue to participate in school matters as a
member of this Board of Supervisors. Thank you.

Ayes: Daniel, Warren, Barber, Humphrey, and McHale.
Nays: None.
Mr. Daniel welcomed the Chairman and members of the Community
Services Board (CSB) to the annual joint meeting of the Board
of Supervisors and Chesterfield CSB.
Mr. Ernest E. Johnson, CSB Chairman, expressed appreciation for
the opportunity to present an overview of current
accomplishments, anticipated challenges and future
opportunities of the CSB. He stated that this year, more than
4,000 of the County's "most vulnerable residents" will be
helped through CSB programs. He noted a twenty-two percent
increase in citizens served compared to last fiscal year and a
fifty percent increase over the previous year. He stated that
the Task Force established by the Board is currently in the
process of examining available alternatives regarding the
designation of the local CSB structure.
Mr. Thomas "Mac" Deadmore, CSB Vice Chairman and Task Force
member, provided an overview of various system elements being
studied by the Task Force including the State Community and
Facility Master Plan; the Hammond Commission Report; and the
Draft Performance Contract between the State and CSBs. He
noted that an analysis of the cost for the County to operate
the CSB will also be examined, as well as advantages and
disadvantages of each alternative structure prior to
preparation of final recommendations. He continued with an
overview of the Governor's proposed budget increase in funding
for the mental health, mental retardation and substance abuse
system and noted that State funds are categorical -- pre-
designated and specified for state facilities and particular
disability populations. He stated that the County will only be
allotted approximately 1/40th of the total funds allocated to
CSBs statewide. He presented an overview of the challenge of
adapting to a managed care funding environment; increased
accountability and restrictions imposed by the State
Performance Contract; and the difficulty faced by the CSB to
maintain the quality of services and current service levels.
Mr. Deadmore next provided an overview of the impact of the
Medallion II Program initiated in Central Virginia regarding
Medicaid managed care; various proposed major changes in the
State Performance Contract requirements -- one of which would
impose subcontracted services; and noted that this would result
in an estimated loss of $4 million in revenue for the CSB.
Ms. Mary Beth New, recently appointed At Large member of the
CSB, expressed appreciation for her appointment to the
Community Services Board by the Board of Supervisors. She
99-121
2/10/99
stated that she was very impressed with the scope of services
provided, professionalism of the staff and the knowledge,
dedication and commitment of CSB Board members. She gave a
brief overview of case management services; noted that current
CSB case load size is more than double the number recommended
by the State as well as national "best practices" standards;
and emphasized the need for resources to continue quality and
consistent case management services in all agency programs.
She provided personal testimony regarding the daily challenges
experienced by her family in coping with her thirteen year old
son who has serious mental illness and assistance in accessing
coordinated services through the CSB. She emphasized the need
to insure continued resources for these critical services
provided to an ever-increasing number of citizens seeking
assistance.
In conclusion, Mr. Johnson noted that the budget submitted by
the CSB does not include funds for any new services or
positions; that a shortfall in the amount of $317,000 is
projected; and voiced an appeal for additional funding to
maintain existing service levels. He noted that even though
the CSB has been successful in the past in eliminating
shortfall amounts of less than $100,000, there is no confidence
this year that such a shortfall of this magnitude can be
managed. He expressed appreciation to the Board for their
support and stated that the CSB will work closely with the
Board and the General Assembly Delegates to prevent any
shifting of cost and responsibility from the State to
localities in this area.
Mr. Daniel expressed appreciation for the clear and concise
presentation of challenges faced by the CSB and noted that due
consideration will be given to the requests for various
resources.
There was brief discussion relative to State Performance
Contract requirements; CSB residential facilities; and resource
availability to continue an Alternative Day Support Program for
persons with severe or profound disabilities.
It was generally agreed to recess to the Public Meeting Room to
continue the regular schedule meeting.
