Gosling, Chairperson RE: COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH DIVISION 1982 BUDGET TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: WHEREAS, the State of Michigan, which provides matching funding for the Community Mental Health program, has awarded insufficient funds this year to match the Community Mental Health 1982 adopted budget as approved by the Oakland County Board of Commissioners; and WHEREAS, the Oakland County Community Mental Health Services Board anticipates further restrictions in State funding in the months immediately ahead; and WHEREAS, such restrictions would force further reductions in Community Mental Health staff and services to the public, already reduced as a result of State budget cuts a year ago; and WHEREAS, Oakland County and its elected representatives strongly support the continuation of the highest quality Community Mental Health care for all County citizens in need of these services; and WHEREAS, an immediate implementation of State imposed budget restrictions in the Community Mental Health program would be extremely disruptive to the program and would necessitate devastating reductions in direct—care staff and abrupt termination of essential public services, NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners allows- the Oakland County Community Mental Health Services Board to retain surplus County matching funds resulting from applied and anticipated reductions in State match, in the amount of $57,530, to offset projected total budget deficits in the Community Mental Health program caused by the State imposed reductions. Mr. Chairperson, on behalf of the Health & Human Resources Committee, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution. HEALTH & HUMAN RESOURCES COMMITTEE FISCAL NOTE BY: FINANCE COMMITTEE, G.
